Lasers would offer the same line-of-sight links, but with much more bandwidth. It could be used with existing cable as a backup for bad weather, just like the microwave proposal.
My point is that legislation making the retirement fund liable for police malpractice settlements would de-incenticize the bad behavior before it actually happens.
I prefer to think that the addicts will just quickly die off and get out of our hair. This will mean that we will have to go through a spike in crime while this happens, but that's what the Second Amendment is for.
Hitting the retirement fund would change the cop culture of mutual ass-covering in situations like this. Instead of dashcam recordings that mysteriously disappear when a court case impends, you would have cops informing on each other to protect the fund.
How much more would that magazine subscription cost you if there were no advertising? Would you pay extra for all your over-the-air TV programming to see it ad-free? Would you pay $100 a month for an ad-free Google that doesn't collect your data for marketers?
In any medium, a modus vivendi develops between consumers and advertisers. Nobody objects to ads in a magazine or online advertising that works like ads in a magazine.It's when popups start planting themselves over what you are reading that people reach for their ad-blocker plugins. When you encounter the kind of popups that won't go away, people start calling their legislators.
...One Wednesday last July, and I noticed something: a large percentage of the people on campus were Asian. I have no idea which were students and which were just other visitors, but on that day at least the campus teemed with Asians, many in large groups.
Social justice warriors, go ahead and hate white people and all that "colonialist," "imperialist" civilization has wrought. I saw our worthy successors that day in Cambridge, and when you try to take them on you will wish you still had our compliant legal system to use as your playground. Asians will build their bullet trains and their giant telescopes wherever they want to, totally ignoring whatever standards of political correctness you have been used to imposing on everyone else. Long may they rule.
And if you have ever seen how much mechanical intricacy there is in one of those blade turbine nacelles, the more you will appreciate a concept this simple. Each "stem" may be a lot less efficient, but you can get so many more of them into the same space. And, each one of so much less complex. This design might even pacify more NIMBYs.
Argentina insists on trying to use convenient financial media like Cheerios and M & Ms as currencies. These are fun to use, but have historically lent themselves to inflation, Argentina's picturesque national sport. It should try this monetary base instead: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R...
Two immediate advantages: it's more difficult for bureaucrats to add zeroes to them, and they can't be pickpocketed.
Discussions like this always center on the need to make science less 'male' in the sense of getting rid of locker-room humor or, once the academic battleaxes really get going, humor of any kind.
But if women are going to meet us halfway and make the most of their talents in STEM, they too need to make one change.. Stop being afraid of everything!/b
There doesn't need to be a law. They know they're in the wrong, but they also have legal teams that can overwhelm any response we could muster unless we can create a significant political media stink. That's why the Stasi types fear social media above all the other weapons we have.
Cave-man with stupid, regressive beliefs reporting for duty, sir!
It is precisely stories like this that confirm our deepest suspicions about government. I automatically vote No on every prison bond and police budget override. If the prison-industrial complex can expand to use the budget we allocate to it, we can if we put our minds to it make it shrink to fit a smaller budget.
Feel like comparing the occasional study that keeps the EMF-from-electrical-fields meme going to the long-established data on cancer from benzene derivatives?
Prank calls to emergency services have been going on long before 911, but I'm sure that burner phones, which seems to be the category of device we're dealing with here, would be ideal for calling in those false emergency reports designed to send SWAT teams to the home of someone you don't like.

At least in Sweden property seizure follows a court judgement. When can the US have an advanced legal system like that?

I predict this lifestyle hitting California soon. Several of the big Hollywood stars and at least one Slate columnist will take the lead.
So now we're blaming the Republicans for being pro-science as well as being anti-science?

The settlement should come straight out of the police retirement fund.

I can see your trust fund depleting fast.
Let's all hope that by the time this flies that the Abbasid Caliphate is on the way to being revived.

It will be Arizona's alternative to religious laws as a way of preventing abortions.
And besides, in this state we almost have prenatal carry.
Ten thousand years ago was at the end of the last ice age (whose interglacial may still be warming up). What was that ice sheet doing then?
As are entire lines of business like travel and real estate.
