Yep, I remember the first ones installed near where I live were removed because they allegedly caused accidents due to drivers being distracted by them, because unlike regular cats' eyes, they're visible in the rear view mirror.
One of the best arguments for gun control is embodied in the Oscar Pistorius murder trial going on in South Africa right now. Thank to guns, he was able to kill his girlfriend through a closed door. His defence is basically that he mistook his girlfriend for a potentially armed intruder. Irregardless of the outcome of the trial, we may never know for sure whether his claims are truthful or not.
Now take away the gun. Although it would still have been possible for Pistorius to have killed his girlfriend, you can be certain that this was his intent.
No. Oxidation means a gain in oxidation state or the loss of electron(s) by an ion/molecule/atom during any redox reaction - It is not specific to reactions involving Oxygen.
The skydiver had his 'chute open (so probably moving at around 30kph) and the rock was said to be moving at ~300kph... So the rock was passing him at ~75m/s
If the video was shot at 25fps progressive (This is in PAL-land, remember), the rock would move around 3m between frames. Which pretty much matches up to that composite image from TFA.
They didn't say "if you get a scrape you will die." They said "if you get a scrape you could potentially die," which is a factual statement if we have no effective antibiotics.
Yes, but they've deliberately and carefully worded it in such a way that people will think the extreme "if you get a scrape you will die" upon reading it. They could have said: "Wounds of all types will carry a greater risk of untreatable infection." But they worded the sentence to include the least severe cause and the worst case effect.
Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons.... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.... I'll come in again.

Remember the time you helped your uncle jack off a horse?
That's phonetically correct and even spelled correctly, but it's miscommunication all the same.
Unless you don't actually have an Uncle Jack, that is.

Actually it is the word of God written down by man, and therefore, for all intents and purposes was written by God.

Ah, yes! Let's make forced overtime the employees fault!

[rips off the patches and rubs his nipples] Aw gee, that's just too bad... I guess you could always switch to another cable company...
I'm guessing excessive lens flare was the real culprit here...
DES was 'nearly unbreakable' in the 70's

It'll still take three attempts to plug one in.
I'm guessing their webserver is running on one of these MinnowBoards...
I agree, they're completely pointless and I'd mod you up if I had points...
Maybe they could find work in border control - I hear a class 8 apartment comes with the job.
Now they're just waiting for Milton to destroy all the evidence in an arson attack, then they're in the clear!
10^14 on consumer drives vs 10^15 on enterprise drives.
'Wounds of all types will carry a greater risk of untreatable infection.'
How is that missing the point, again?

That, IMHO is scaremongering.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but Joe Sixpack doesn't give a shit whether his security holes are fixed or not... he just wants to use his software.
It's true that he *should* care - but he doesn't.
Aww, diddums! Did the nasty man post the link you were going to post before you?
Will they be giving all their employees shirts with nipple flaps, then?
Actually, you can download the launcher and run the demo version locally. You just need to create a Mojang account.
