The armrests dont move.  Its a sham.

I’m sorry, sir. I have no idea where you could acquire four new scrhader valve cores on short notice, or how that could possibly have happened.

I’m all for green-ifying transport (I happily own a Prius!), but 860W is probably the “at noon on the equator” number, and is still only barely more than a horsepower. Imagine leashing two pro cyclists to the front of your car chariot-style- that’s how much power you’re getting.

Reminder: Its not the least bit original,insightful, or helpful to suggest having empathy for abusers and imploring the victim to try to meet them in the middle. It is entirely possible to understand someones viewpoint and reason for doing things while still coming to the conclusion that they are deplorable.

What is the thought process behind “we need to impeach even if the Senate won’t convict”? Do you put that victory up on the refrigerator next to “we won the popular vote”?

My take on Pelosi’s thoughts from reading other sources besides Splinter isn’t that she firmly believes that, but that she thinks it might be true, and if it might be true, the fact that any impeachment proceedings have a known outcome already (namely, dying after they leave the House), is making her skittish.

I forwarded the link to a colleague who does a lot of long-line rescues. Here’s what he said:

Search and Rescue helicopter pilot guy here. In case any of you are wondering if this will happen to you after falling off a cliff face or something and needing an airlift, it won’t if they do their jobs right. In the organization I fly with you have to use a line attached to the litter that’s held by a member of the…

Dad?

I’d bet that they are better trained in CPR than the parents.

Always grab a swimmer in the water from behind, and don’t be afraid to kick them off if they do manage to grab you from the front. A drowning person will, just on sheer adrenaline, try to use you like a ladder and push you under as they climb up. If they do get you in a grab hold, then grab them back, duck them under…

Except that the military has very strict rules of engagement, governing when you are allowed to open fire, among other things.

Police have no such rules.  

The only correct answer re: impeachment is one that addresses it as a strategic issue, first and foremost.

It’s a nice movie where no one dies and everyone dances and sings and smartly avoids any stampede situations. Just a good feels trip.

you don’t get AIDS from someone coughing in a room full of people. But you do get measles that way. You don’t know people who died from measles, because they are dead. We don’t see the people regularly who were disfigured because of it because they often are shy about being stared at because of how they look.

“Of course it is possible for children, even those who are not immunocompromised, to die from complications of the measles. But not that many.”

Heres something people don’t realize in good old ‘murica. The vast majority of our power generation is done by natural gas and coal. China also uses a lot of coal, but in the last 2 years they've installed 4 AP1000 nuclear reactors. Not to mention the largest hydroelectric dam in the world before that. We are…

There is no way China is using 300,000 battery powered buses. China regularly publishes this kind of crap and every time investors like myself get excited and dig into the data we find they are lying. Those kind of numbers would have had a noticeable demand on commodities I’m invested in and I haven’t seen that. If I…
