Everything listed with the exception of spark plugs is perfectly relevant to most modern diesels. Jesus, these days most of those things are relevant to diesel-powered John Deere tractors...
There is zero reason why it couldn't be voluntary AFTER the students are settled on campus. Putting it in the orientation packet makes the incoming student vulnerable to parental pressure to "volunteer," and sends a message (regardless of the word "voluntary") that this is something expected of incoming freshmen by the University, not something one clueless researcher somehow conned the IRB into approving. It's an outrageous recruiting tactic that should never have been approved, ESPECIALLY for subjects who may be minors at the point of recruitment.
Maybe they just don't give a damn about potential research subjects' rights during recruitment, but permitting the solicitation to go out AS PART OF A FUCKING FRESHMAN ORIENTATION PACKET is beyond the pale. This research subject recruitment strategy is damnably coercive my view. Berkeley's IRB should be ashamed. Or better yet, replaced.
If you can hit the paw of a running (or even walking) dog with an handgun, you belong in Buffalo Bill's Wild West show. The movie version, where impossible feats happen.
Security easily defeated with a McDonald's straw. Or a reasonable facsimile of the official "out of order" bag they used to place over the broken ones.
O'Keefe et al entered a US Senator's office disguised as telephone repair men to tamper with the phone system. One accomplice is the son of a US attorney in Louisiana. All 4 were arrested by the FBI. All 4 skated.
"Justice" in these cases seems to depend quite heavily on whose political party your father belongs to.

I would never have known that the Japanese have blurry genitals.
I wonder what the difference in this "winner effect" is when the defend-my-own-home motivation is absent?
RTFA - this is about walking in the FOREST, not the Castro.
Funny, I get 81.818181818.
Because we're the new Empire. Interesting times will be when the US finally does go metric, and China switches to Imperial units.

Yes.

"should be able to say 'It causes XXX'"
That was Vin Diesel. And he, too, should be banned.
It feminizes, IIRC.
Goatse recently moved to Guatemala City.
Sounds like a certain anonymous coward has a gigantic inferiority complex.
There are no rational emotions. The GP's "irrational hatred" was redundant, and your "rational hatred" is oxymoronic.

Doesn't unchecking the "keep my history" button under "privacy" take care of this?
If it is EU-wide, why is Germany the only country making any noise about it?

Or bricks?
So if I go to Starbucks and use their wifi to download a movie, Starbucks should be charged?
That's a really odd position to take.

Find Merlo the Magician. Fall into his hat.
Patton Oswalt is giddy with glee to have a perfect lookalike nominated to the High Court.
Soul? Not so sure. Visual cortex? Completely gone.
