Ah, "Rods from God"; concept's been around for decades. If I had to take a stab at it, I'd guess Aerospace Engineering or Physics student might write it up as a thesis. 20 tons is for the strategic option; you get something close to a nuclear explosion from it. You wouldn't need or want many of 'em. By way of comparison, the Hubble weighs over 10 tons. You could 20 kg ones to kill tanks fairly effectively.
Because planes with manually controlled hydraulics never had control failures or crashed, ever. Oh, and congratulations on your psychic powers for knowing that the crash was caused by a fly-by-wire failure before any of the evidence has been evaluated. Can you tell me where I should be investing in the stock market?
No, because you're not powering the pacemaker directly, you're recharging a battery. Heart falters, pacemaker continues on its battery. Battery charge dips a little, is recharged when the heart recovers. No problems.
Actually, there used to be an option when you got to the end of Form 1040 to let the IRS calculate your tax for you. Almost nobody used it. If you owed additional taxes, you'd have to wait to get the IRS's calculation back and then send your check--and that check would be due April 15, so if you hadn't left enough time for the round trip, you'd have to just calculate it yourself so you could write the check with the return. If you were due a refund (and most people over-withhold and are due a substantial refund), you didn't want to wait on IRS calculations to get your money.
When did they not hash passwords? They said they didn't *encrypt* passwords, but clarified that later that they meant they were hashed not encrypted. I actually found it rather reassuring that they understand the difference (and, yes, passwords should be hashed and not encrypted).
Wrong. The Constitution says the Congress has the power to coin money, but never says it has the "sole authority". The Constitution does prohibit the *states* from coining money, but says nothing about private citizens.
You need to balance, yes, but store configurations tend to processor-heavy, because processor power is what impresses the average buyer. So, generally, you're looking at a situation where you want to rebalance towards memory.

Which is done by a transfer of energy, whether you do it with a laser or with a knife.
I would've thought that they'd need to dig the tunnel because it *wasn't* there. Incidentally, how *do* you dig a tunnel that's already there?
So it's slightly larger than Major League Baseball?

Actually, it's easier than that. It's thousand-island dressing. That simple.
And Frankfurters are from Frankfurt!
Myth; Italian noodles go back to before the time of the Roman Empire. Tomatoes are quite recent, however.
"England has a splendid national cuisine. That nation being India."
The Japanese like to say that only native Japanese can stomach natto, and it's an acquired taste even for them.

A pacemaker doesn't pump blood. We're talking about powering the control circuit, not the pump.
Short answer: Not really. Long answer: If it was trying to pull large amounts of energy, yes, but we're talking microwatts here. You'll never miss it.

I guess it depends on what you say the definition of "say" is.
I'll put in a vote for Valkyria Chronicles. I really like that game.
I believe user2 when he says this. He seems like a trustworthy guy.

Well, it's already warped...
Um, making money by government-mandated monopoly is NOT capitalism!

Citation, please. This change is not listed in Wikipedia's PS3 firmware history, and I have never heard of it before.
Because physics so often deals with dividing by those quantities. What's the current on a zero-resistance wire?

It means a single person probably shouldn't buy a house. A couple, each making 26,700, would fit exactly into the formula.
