    your thinking of shutter glasses. they can damage your vision with over use. glasses less 3d and glasses 3d do that have the same effect.

    i saw that discovery documentation on that called all engines failed. he still had his emergency power and hydrolic control. also really good flying on the crews part being they never gave up and shortened attempting to restart the engines. a bit of siance saved them when the molten ash dried it flaked off and they could restart the engines.

    smaller less wight aircraft can glide mutch further then large commercial jets. and normally land without damage if the pilot has skill. look up the beech-craft crash where the engine shredded when a prop failed and ruined the wings aerodynamics. he manage to land it and everyone survived the crash landing. unfortunately the fire did kill people.

    boeing does allow them to take over total control even if it means braking the aircraft. looks up the fedx incident. where a employee tryed taking over the aircraft and the polit flew it like a fighter to keep him off balance. he damaged the aircraft but managed to land despite the damage and inejery.

    i guess you misunderstood. a dead stick small aircraft still keeps all its abiltys. a huge commercial jet is like flying a brick and if you lose emergency power you also lose all controls. look up total power failer or hydrolic loss. all the aircraft crashed. only one ever managed to land but he had desert sand to his advantage.

    no they became popular for there speed. airliners wanted faster and larger aircraft. and jet engine deliver there. small prop driven aircraft are still the safest to fly. a huge commercial jet airlines falls like a brick when something goes wrong. unless you take a wing off a small aircraft your probably going to survive any sort of engine failer even if it means landing dead stick.

    terrorism is effective look at your history. terrorism has always been used when a people or country are oppressed to the point of terrorism that leads to a uprising or civil war. in the case of the middle east its due to 2 religions fighting out pretty much sense the beginning of religion. they have fought so long they both no longer have the resources to have any kind of official war. and the usa getting involved is just a wast of are time and resources. we will never stop there fighting we cant win. all we can do is keep them away from us.well we can win but nobody is willing to go to those extremes of just wiping the entire area off the map.

    or they did give up on that being there watching other company's patents being crushed in the courts. and some conturys have gotten rid of soft where patents entirely meaning now even if they did win the victory would be moot. they would just go to a country without software patents. so even a patent troll defense would fail. its been proven those brod patents do not stand up in court anyways.

    they cant brake and absorb linux. they tried for the last 5 years to do it and failed hard. they cant buy it away they cant sue it away etc. they even tried to patent troll but i think after they watched other company's patents get shot down they gave up on that. so what else can they do other then damage control being linux is pretty much on everything now really the case with the phone market. it isn't the little nerd os anymore.

    i prefer the larger 3 wheeled piggio mp3 over normal scooters due to the halftone wight and safety factor. its the size of a motorcycle 2 seater come in 250 400 and 500cc models your bike cant catch any of those models. and are freeway legile. i knoe when you hear scooter you think those 50cc slow toys flee markets and gas stations sell.

    they count you just dismiss them. Scooters can be just as large as a motorcycle and just as heavy with just as much hp. on not talking abought those 50cc toys the teens buy. but real freeway legile ones you need a liance to drive like a motorcycle. look up a piggio mp3 for what im talking abought. or even a large vespa.

    phex was put in to help kill the gold for cash trade in eve. wile they always let people buy trade and sell time cards adding it as a in game item made that entire prosses easier. and as a eve player i can tell you it was effective. gold sellers get laughed off the server. eve has no gold selling communality not that it ever had much of one phex killed what was left. just the time trading trade.

    well this is a first time anyone was that stupid. before eve didn't even allow you to undock with those in your cargo they recently changed that and have a felling after this they will reverse that patch. it may be a stunt by the player with some cash to burn to protest this change. once you use these items they add 30 days to your account they cant be destroyed after use. they can be used anywhere from any station so you dont have to run back to said area to activate it. once used they also dissaper. what this guy did was make a bunch of them from time cards then cargo them up and undock due to the recent patch that allows this. phex have 2 uses sell them for profit basically a legile gold buying system and for buyers it gives them more game time using in game currency and not pay a fee for that month using real money.

    second story on slashdot abought this and the second one to ignore the cars that are cheap and get even better millage then the big 3 hybrids. they all like to forget the 35k aptera that gets 150mpg. or the piggio mp3 hybred scooter hell even the non hybred ones get more mpg then all of the big 3 hybred cars. its very easy concept people seem to forget. if you what more mpg drive a small car. drive a small bike. 250cc is more then enough power to get you anywhere fast but piggio does make small and larger displacements for those that what it. of course the usa still has the issue of the roads still dominated by large cars and suvs and people having no respect for a smaller car or bike on there road.

    steam work online and offline. it works no matter what pc you are on. it does not mess with your pc in any way. you can download said game as many time as you whant. steam is linked to your account without limits that drm isnt what people want to die. its when companys like ea a ubisoft take it to far and start restricting the game to 1 pc forcing you to be online etc. thankfully ea learned the lesson and dumped the drm. and let not even mention what sony did. as for consoles they are not pcs. but in the same sense said game will work in any ps3 etc console you buy the game for work online and off and so on. all console drm does is stop you from tossing in a burned game.
