Unlike Iraq I don't think Iran has the printing presses that are capable of doing high quality counterfeits, otherwise they would just print up their own money.
Maybe they can buy one or two presses from North Korea?

The IIHS' crash safety tests are conducted using a dummy in the driver's seat fitted with injury sensors that assess head protection countermeasures and the vehicle's structural performance during the impact. Despite the ForTwo's maximum ratings for front and side impact, the IIHS did point out that the absence of a front-end crash zone means that drivers involved in accidents in the two-seater undergo a different kind of experience than those in cars with a longer frontal crush structure. Instead of relying on the car's crush zone to weather most of the impact, the ForTwo relies more on its internal restraint system to protect the driver. "We recorded a high head acceleration when the driver dummy's head hit the steering wheel through the frontal airbag," said IIHS President Adrian Lund in a press release, suggesting that the dummy maximized the use of space in the car's cabin to "ride down" the impact.
The car might survive, but will be irreparable, and you might be in the same condition if you are in one when it wrecks.
You have articles that declare it safe, but the person I responded to said it was "the safest car on the road in the US". I pointed out with facts that it is not the safest car on he road in the US.
Yet the Smart Four Two is the SAFEST car on the US roads with a 5 star crash rating for frontal and Side impact. It doesn't stop the uneducated from screaming it's "unsafe".
Not only is the Smart not the safest car on the US roads, it isn't even the safest car in its category.
problems include not being able to ship on date in ~10 years or having the promised performance
I did a few weeks of temp work for TI once. I'm not sure why they pulled us from shipping, but we were looking over circuit boards I believe for routers or something. Some of the chips were on upside down, as in shiny side up, and these has already passed two QC's. That is not what they were having us look for, but it is what I found. They no longer had a need for my services soon after.
I seriously did not know what he meant, I didn't know if he thought we were attacking Libya trying to prevent their freedom, or if he meant that we were attacking the freedom of the Libyan people in some other way, or if we were attacking Libya so that we could gain more freedom.
Considering the stupid shit I have heard come out of peoples mouths I was not taking anything for granted.
One thing I have seen growers do is to grow in shallow containers with potting soil, but still use hydro fertilizers while keeping a close eye on the PH.
After each harvest the soil gets spread around the yard.
When I visited Butte Montana I noticed that almost every house had a tomato plant at their window inside. Their soil was too polluted to grow outdoors.
All of that would be lost on a turn-key operation such as this, and those poor fools wouldn't even realize what they're missing.
I have a feeling these guys know exactly what they are missing, that was probably the entire point of doing this. So I wouldn't say they are missing it, they are avoiding it.
Companies operating commercial aircraft have different regulations about how they fly vs the military.
If this were ever used commercially, I don't think it would be allowed with passenger aircraft, just cargo. The risk is just too damn high for so little reward.
You have an article with no author from a news organization operating out of the UAE talking about what the CIA is planning to do in Libya.
I would suggest taking that with a grain of salt, but also remember we have no troops on the ground in Yemen or Pakistan, but we still go after targets there.
I just have no clue what he meant by "attacking Libya for freedom", I can't make those words make sense.
mostly doubling down on, most Bush policies (use of drones, attacking Libya for freedom, warrantless wiretapping, funneling government money to large corporations, TSA/Homeland Security)
The drone strikes was part of his original campaign. He stated that he would strike in Pakistan with them and all the other candidates said they would not. I completely support this.
Now "attacking Libya for freedom"? Can you explain what you are trying to say here? We are attacking Libya for freedom? That makes no sense. We have no troops in Libya. We are not attacking an abstract idea in Libya.
Warrantless wiretapping, yes I would like to see this stopped.
funneling government money to large corporations
You do realize that the Republicans are the greatest the supporters of corporate welfare? The amount this is happening under Obama vs Bush is laughable. It's like complaining about a couple drops of water in the desert vs being on the bottom of the ocean.

You might be a computer if you only can only process information that is properly formatted and improperly formatted information gives you a segfault.
Because we all know that TOP GEAR is a car show that is for serious car information.
I'm not sure how good cnet is in regards to serious car information, but someone linked this to me trying to state that the Smart is a safe car.

Since Hyundai bought Kia Hyundai has been the upscale version of Kia, so if you are looking cheap look at Kia.

Patents, lots and lots of patents.
Good on Pakistan for condemning the attack, but the question is why are there no protests by Muslims outside of Pakistan regarding that attack?
They'll take the time to kill someone for a movie, but not take the time to protest a kid being shot.
I don't know exactly what kind of soil honestly, I didn't ask that many questions.

If it comes from them I hope it doesn't come from the same fields they have been growing their tobacco in.

There are a few crops that have a much higher value so the return on investment is higher.
I know I'll be a growing two pounds a year if one of those crops ever became legal.
All of that would be lost on a turn-key operation such as this, and those poor fools wouldn't even realize what they're missing.

I'm fairly certain I read a story about this type of set up in High Times over 18 years ago when I was in high school.
Yes and pot growers have been doing this for decades.
Funneling money to business and funneling money to SPECIFIC businesses is completely different

At least Obama doesn't own stock in the firms he has been trying to help, and he has been trying to help them, not doing it for personal profit.

Works for cars, bikes, motorcycles, swimmers, why not planes?
Turbulence due to the plane and it's engines. At least that is what I would assume to be a problem with drafting in the air.
It's not like this works for boats.
