while the military spend of the US clears $800Bn - making it yet again the single largest military spender in history, outspending every other nation combined.
BTW when an increase doesn't keep pace with inflation + the CPI over the same period (which 5% doesn't, and providing that 5% counts annually it's short by about 0.2 for 2013/12-2014/12), then it's a cut.
rubbish. Competitive sports as entertainment has safety at the top of its todo list.
NFL has pads, grilles and helmets. Formula 1 has roll bars, crumple zones and fireproof jumpsuits. Rugby has rules about where you can grab an opponent to tackle him to the ground (strictly below the waist). This is a safety thing more than making shit entertaining. I should know, having been victim to an idiot who ignored the instruction and tackled me by dropping on the back of my neck, putting me in traction for six weeks and ensuring I never played rugby again. He could easily have killed me, not through normal gameplay but by being a fucking idiot. MMA is the same. It might look unbelievably violent, but there is a point where you stop pounding the shit out of your opponent (when he goes limp, drops or submits) or else the sport ends and you are subject to the local police jurisdiction for aggravated assault, as has happened. Deaths in contact sports are extremely rare, notwithstanding the cranial and other injuries likely to result from repeated blows. I think most of the deaths in professional wrestling at ECW/WWE level have actually been accidental, resulting from idiocy or just pure bad luck. Two that come to mind are Owen Hart who died when a shackle on a flying wire he was suspended from failed and he fell 80 feet, landing face first on the top rope, and Mal Kirk, who was crushed to death by Shirley Crabtree during a live televised match (back in the day when British wrestling was broadcast live with no delay so we got the whole gory picture of Kirk turning blue and the broadcast commentator cutting in with a voiceover - or rather, trying to, he was probably as stunned as the rest of the country at what had just happened).

you use a laser and a crystal with a polar void along the wave axis. Such setups have been in use since the 1970s in things like micromanipulators, planet detectors (yes, planet detectors), and most recently quantum bits.
the point is they don't evne have to get as far as the finding stage, all they have to do is drown you in enough paperwork to kill you in lawyers fees. Ever see a legal team leave a sinking ship? Faster than a rat up a drainpipe, they are. Fuck the merits of the case at that point, they've broken you and to them that is all that matters: they've made an example of you and probably haven't even met the judge yet.
asked then answered: 12.5-13.5psi but there is currently no requirement to check or log pressure before, during or after the game. Follow up question: if there is no requirement to check the pressure, how would one know if a ball is within the rules?
you know what'd make reality tv fun? Danger. I mean, real danger. When Big Brother does a live eviction, let's have the eviction into a pool of acid. When someone gets kicked out of the camp in I'm A Celebrity, feed the entitled little shit to some crocodiles. "Survivor"? Don't make me laugh. Until the penalty for failure is REAL bodily harm or death, fuck that soft shit right off.

nuclear cars didn't happen cause bad shit happens omgznukes! Nuclear cars actually didn't happen because its inconvenient for the petrochemical industry. Same as the petrochemical industry and the dealership cartels are still fighting the electric car. You really think Tesla is having a shit time because of real safety concerns? Fuck no, it's because notwithstanding the artificially high price of lithium, and the sudden dive in oil prices (ya really think that's just a coincidence?), the petro industry/cartels are lobbying the shit out of State and Federal authorities to block the sales of Tesla electric cars - the biggest threat to their bottom line since nuclear went portable - by the simple expedient of forbidding franchise exclusivity, which includes direct sales, and forcing any franchise deal to include unnecessarily large facilities (since most Tesla issues are software related that can be easily dealt with remotely, without even needing to lift the hood, there is hardly any need for workshop facilities).

oh fuck off, I gave you citation and you still insist, in the face of blatant evidence, that you're right?? Get the fuck off my lawn.

the second the claim form is served on you.
hell, don't be too shocked if your own legal team files the petition against you - it's been known to happen:

Even solicitors can be declared bankrupt without judgement:

They probably went to the Donald Trump School of Hiding Wealth:

(which was kinda handy for Ivana, who took half his assets - and none of the joint liabilities - in the divorce settlement)
ask that again when you've been lawyered to death. They will bleed you dry and you won't even have a judgement to show for it.

ooh, snap

oh, snap.
who modded this shit up?? How about getting on topic instead of picking a slip of a shift key?
international test cricket for the win.
Sorry, when was the last time an NFL player got killed when a bean beaned him in the face??

isn't there a rule or something about the minimum inflation pressure of a ball in play?

and why not? I have been my entire working life and have never been out by so much as a penny.
and you are an AC cunt whose opinion is worth less than nothing, so fuck off and die.
bear in mind I'm talking about a cellular connection here, not FTTC or TCW.
no, because physics.
(it's actually a very old physics joke).
To get to the same side.
Bazinga!
oh, forgot to add, just in case your calculator's broken, 1000GB/mo is about 33GB/day.
KSP might be a game but NASA are taking it seriously enough to active in development.

yeah, really can't believe they're even considering it, adding to the nuclear pollution the Sun's putting out.
