Soldiers will fire on anybody they believe to be a direct and immediate threat to their lives. Don't forget there was no riot gear for the National Guard back then, most of them don't have it today either. Rocks and bricks, both of which are deadly weapons, were being thrown at the soldiers and they didn't fire. Molotov cocktales were in the crowd and they didn't fire. The soldiers only fired when they heard a gunshot so off. The relevant lesson, don't shoot at anybody who is armed unless you want them to shoot back. Don't shoot at soldiers if you want to convince them to join your cause.
Are you sure that nobody wants to live within 20 miles of a nuclear plant? The people of Guntersville Alabama are mostly quite happy about the proposed nuke plant there. There was even a small article in the New York Times because the journalist was so surprised with the lack of opposition.
Right-to-Work is so called because it states that you have a right to work if you so choose for an organization if they so choose. It mean you can not be forced to join or contribute to a third party, generally a union, as a condition of employment. For those of us who are libertarians, or pretty munch anybody who isn't a democrat this is generally welcomed.
Don't know, I've never tried copying the Steam directory. I just installed steam on each computer, logged into my account, then downloaded the game directly to each one. You can only be logged into steam from one computer at a time so the installations would have to be done in serial and not parallel. Once the game is installed on each computer you could start steam in offline mode on each one and play the game. Now how the game would work trying to connect across a LAN to another instance running under the same steam username, I have no idea. Since most games handle the LAN connections independent of steam(steam is just used to distribute/launch the game) it might work. My best guess is it would depend on which game your playing and how much steam is integrated into that game. HL2 might require each computer to have a different steam user logged in ( and thus a different CD key) while a third party game that is just distributed using steam might work just fine.
When you start steam without an internet connection, steam presents an option box that asks if you want to start steam in offline mode. If you select offline mode you can play all the games that are currently installed on your computer with no problem. The only time you need to be connected to the internet with steam is for initial validation if installing from a cd, or purchase and download in getting it from the internet.
Tazers are designed to send electrical pulses through your body at a specified frequency such that is disrupts your body's abilities to control major muscle movements. It is very uncomfortable but not hugely painful.
Having someone pinned to the ground does not mean you have control of them. It only means you have stopped their movement. It is very difficult and dangerous to try and move someone who is actively resisting. The only actual options are to get some level of submission from them or to render them unconscious. Shooting and or beating this guy until unconscious was not an option so a method to acquire submission was required, thus the tazer.
What you seem to be missing is the effect on noise levels. If you remove all the band restrictions and mandate everyone transmit using spread spectrum technology the RF noise level would rise so high that nothing would continue to be functional.
Eve online is the closest to an adult MMPOG I've found but it's not really an RPG. The leet speak kids can't really make it past the steep learning curve to play.
A well reasoned purpose is not what I was intending to imply I was punished for. If I had a good reason for what I did I was always allowed to say it. I was talking about general BS hairsplitting. Ex. Parent: "I told you not to go to play at Jimmy's house, why were you there?" kid: "I didn't go to Jimmy's house I was on the sidewalk in front of his house and he just happened to come out". That is the kind of BS that didn't fly but to many times pulls parents these days into lawyer like arguments. Kids know what their parents meant when they said things. Playing word games or "forgetting" at an opportune time shouldn't let a kid off the hook. Otherwise the kid learns that they can get away with anything as long as they frame it the right way.
Kids only learn to lie better and play plausible deniability word games if their parents let them get away with it. Thats real easy to deal with. Quote from my father "This house isn't a courtroom!". I would then get double whatever my punishmet was going to be for trying to weasle my way out of it. It didn't take long to figure out that was a bad idea.
The article mentions that the amount of enrichment in dairy products is large enough to prevent rickets but not enough to get the cancer fighting effects. As far as D2 versus D3 goes, D2 has to be activated by your body and turned into D3 before it can be used. It is turned into D3 by your skin during exposure to the sun. So if your not getting a good amount of sun exposure you D2 supplements aren't doing you any good. Also, to address what some other people were arguing about, Northern latitudes such as Wisconsin and Canada do get plenty of sun light as related to good lighting conditions and sight are concerned but the intensity of the light during large portions of the year are not enough for your skin to produce and/or activate vitamin D.
...The most tremendous failures I have personally seen in the classroom are people with lots of "life experience" but who are not lifelong academics. I have to disagree. All of the best professors I have had also had 20-30 years of experience managing real engineering and programming projects. They were the ones who always had the answer for why any particular piece of knowledge was important or useful. They would also point out the things in our text books that were really nice facts that the "academic" author thought were important but didn't work in practice.
In-car passengers shut up when they notice that the driver is trying to merge onto the interstate, or make a turn across the oncoming lane. It's automatic You must not have many women riding in your car. You seem to have forgotten the unending female pay attention to me trick where she points in a random direction and says "look at (random object well outside viewing distance) what do you think of it?"
No they won't fly above Poland if bound for the US, if bound for Europe they will. Also this project would have to balloon to 1000 times its current size before it would make a dent in Russia's offensive nuclear attack capabilities. The only thing that could effectively scale big enough to deal with Russia's ICBMs are space based counter ICBMs.
And those countries are in a good location to counter missiles from Iran, or Pakistan. Russia has thousands of ballistic missiles, y'all would still run out of targets long before you ran out of missiles.
Because of the path ballistic missiles will take from North Korea or China makes Alaska a good location for counter missile batteries. The proximity to Russia has nothing to do with the location.
Advocating the dissolution of the union and a Coup d'Etat isn't the same thing. Anybody can, and many fringe groups do, advocate a fundamental change in how the US government works. You can even get a security clearance while in those groups as long as they don't advocate the "violent overthrow of the government". A non-violent overthrow or dissolution is perfectly legal to advocate. Now anyone pushing for a Coup d'Etat will be arrested for incitement to violence.
Paying to live in a building doesn't mean you can modify that building how you want, ie bolt something to it. If you want to put bolts in your walls buy your own building.
Now lets take a place like Daily Kos or Little Green Footballs, A liberal politician will probably want to buy ads on the first because he is likely to have support and a conservative will want to do the same at the second site. Should those web sites have to register as lobbyists? Should they have to refuse ads from the people who have the most reason to want to communicate with that market segment? A weight loss product would be smart to place an add on the pages with people searching questions about weight loss at WebMD. Why shouldn't politicians be able to communicate with the most active and sympathetic segment of the population?

Being tazered isn't really that painful, it is very unpleasant though. And yes I have been tazered.

Security Clearance forms specify that you don't need to respond about things that happened before you turned 18.
