300MPH to 0 in 12 feet? Sure, let's calculate the G's from that. Somehow I missed the specs for the inertial dampeners. What really peeves me is that this is Science Fiction that is too lazy to try to conform to the realm of possibility rather than exceed those limits to make a really good story.
If I am reading this right, IANAL, blah, blah, blah, RIAA is simply dropping monetary damages. They have not dropped the suit. I don't see how this will effect the counter-claims. Hopefully, Grandma will ream their tail ends so bad that their heads will fall through.
If I am not mistaken, at 7.5 negative G's, your eyeballs would pop out of your head. The human body can take significantly more positive G's than negative. Oh, and at 13 positive G's, sustained, you would pass out. Doesn't sound like much fun to me.
Nano formulated drugs can get into places that were impossible before. For this same reason, other nano formulated materials may present a severe danger. For example, I wouldn't want particles from the paint on my house to end up crossing the blood brain barrier.
except being too cheap. Of course, to upper management, this was a failing of the IT staff whose hide will appropriately beaten on Monday. Never mind that the IT department had been begging for more machines and memory all year. After all, a Harvard MBA knows far more about capacity planning than a lowly IT employee.
As usual, the CEO's, and upper management, will receive huge bonuses and the rest will suffer.
"Closing down Arecibo would be like closing down the Fermi Lab particle accelerator to Particle Physics."
Unless they decide to build the ILA at Fermilab, it will probably be shut down in the not too distant future. I think they now have some Neutrino experiments scheduled out to 2011, but past that nothing.
Many, not all, diesel's have solenoid controlled fuel cut-off's. Other's have vacuum controlled cut-off's. Vacuum controlled systems will be immune. Solenoid, I wouldn't be sure of. Depends on whether they fail on or off.
She wasn't taking proper care of it, unless it was the dreaded 350SDL. Older Mercedes diesels are prized as among the most reliable cars ever built. I have seen 300SD's from the early 80's with over a half million miles on them. The 350SDL, on the other hand, was probably the worst Mercedes diesel ever built. Strangely enough, if you take the 350SDL crank and put it into a 2.8 inline 6 gas engine, and bore it out a little bit, you end up with the sweetest gasoline inline 6's ever to come out of Mercedes. That engine, the 3.6, was the foundation of the Mercedes AMG C36.
Electronic fuel injection was available in some cars in the late 60's. For example the Mercedes Benz SE's had electronic fuel injection. The killer part would be the voltage regulator which started going electronic in the early 60's, and were completely electronic by the late 60's.
Electronic voltage regulator and electronic ignition. There might have been a model or two that still had mechanical ignition in the early 80's, but I can't think of one. The last electro-mechanical voltage regulators were phased out in the late 1960's.
There may already be a breakthrough for Crohn's patients. There is a new drug called Tysabri which has been shown to be very efficacious in treating Crohn's, and is expected to be approved by the FDA in a few months.

Transparent Aluminum, well, contaminated aluminum oxide. Close enough.
The vulnerability is in the proprietary flash player. It is easily exploited using files produced by third party tools.
Hey! That's been my sig line on slashdot for quite some time now.

It is the best thing that ever happened to Linux on the Desktop. Who needs friends, when you have enemies like this?

Go Grandma! Go!

Note to self:
1) Do not place hard drive within 10 feet of 5 tesla muon detector.
2) Do not use fiber optic cable labeled "Insulation approved by Mouse Gourmets."
3) You don't know what overclocking is until you have a source of liquid helium.
I just bought it this week, and I would have to agree with you. It was mildly amusing, but it wasn't real funny. I was disappointed.

Only the guilty need worry.
And while I am at it, can I interest you in some Florida Condominiums?
Tie a rock to them and toss them in the water. If they float, they're a witch. If they sink, they're not a witch. Repeat as necessary.

If you lived in Illinois, these paragraphs would be completely null and void. I can't speak for other states.
Ever think that one of the reasons why Congress's ratings are so low is because they haven't impeached yet?
