My understanding was that LIDAR was much worse in weather than visual systems. Snow and rain in particular wreck havoc with LIDAR...even mild snow and rain that you (or a camera) could see through.

France has known to share intel and technology to countries (e.g. Israel) that we would not.

F. Your dad said that? That’s what I just said to my kid. Now I feel old. Nice shot of the E2-D too!

Swaddle...tightly. You may think your kids likes to have their arms free because you find that way when they wake up.

They already have a child overtemp protection that will keep your car below 100 degrees in case you accidentally leave your kid in the car.

China and Russia have another problem.  The U.S. can put ground launched tomahawks in Iraq and Afghanistan.  Their flight paths would be through areas not heavily protected by Chinese and Russian air defense and early warning systems.

1. The alleged assault was between the girl and two women. He has no authority over or responsibility for those two women.

I don’t know how to feel about this as a black guy.
1. He was the neurologist for my son that was born at 24 weeks. He was awesome and definitely helped navigate us through all the craziness during the first two years of my son’s life.

2. He’s a lifelong member of a church that has a black pastor.

3. He’s long advocated…

Interesting fact.
Stayed at a hotel in the DC area over the summer. Right in front, there were about 6 Teslas, including a brand new Model 3 and a bunch of people in suits and nametags hovering around.

Being a Tesla Model S owner, I walked over to see if I could scam a ride in the Model 3. I ask one of the guys with a…

In the military, different grid reference systems (e.g. CGRS, GARS) are defined differently.  Some are w x h, while others are h x w.  

More importantly, the Allies made it a point of effort to rescue/retrieve downed pilots. The Japanese did not.

As a result, the Japanese squandered the huge advantage in flight experience they had during the early parts of the war, while the U.S. was able to retain and build pilot experience.

I can’t think of a better…

Another big problem of concurrency is the fact that other programs that supplemented the F-35 were built early too. For example, the USS America amphib’s flight deck was designed specifically for the F-35. She was completed before the first F-35B’s arrived, however. Currently her network cannot support the F-35, and…

It’s a long one, but a lot happened.
Summer of ‘97. I’m living in Annapolis, MD with my ex-college roommate Ed. One of our mutual buddies is getting married in San Diego. Ed offers to drive, but with one catch. We have to take his brand new 1997 Mazda RX-7. The reason? He wants to see how fast it will go.

So we do, and…

Ugh, this is getting tiring 
6th amendment deals with criminal
14th deals with due process for civil cases. (expanded on this in below posts)

If the coach sues Safesport, he is going to be able to cross examine the accusers anyway. Safesport knows this, and that’s why their rules mirror quote “deeply established in…

damnit!  I spell that word wrong every time.  Luckily spell check corrects it for me most of the time.

ut in other contexts, a right of confrontation is incorporated in the right of due process. The key case is Morrissey v. Brewer, 408 U. S. 471 (1972). It seems to me that the situation posed by the reader – a hearing with significant consequences for the litigant, witnesses testifying from the stand, and the…

The whole fight about the Bill of Rights came down to a fight between the Federalists and the Anti-Federalists.

The Federalists believed it was obvious that any right not specifically given to the government (via the Constitution) remained with the states or people. Thus they didn’t need to be written down.

The…

Right. First of all TL, DR.

Uh. Not sure where you’re going with this. I’m not the one that started the personal attack.

Anytime anywhere. Send me your real name and address.
