Depends on the type of debt and the way in which it was accrued. One can very easily be sent to prison for unpaid debt, actually, especially if they misrepresented themselves during the qualification process / investment round, etc., etc. and if you’re hiding assets from debt collectors (contempt), or the feds...there…

Buying a Honda Accord V6-Coupe.

No one would buy this car if Porsche Caymans were less expensive. Fact.

Well said and this should not have resulted in firing, but from a litigation standpoint, I can understand the stupid theory behind it.

Fair enough. But, 1999/Kosovo was the last Western/NATO v. foe dogfight. And, 2000 was the last known friendemy v. foe dogfight in the world. It seems unlikely to again ocurr, on any scale, for a Western/NATO Power. With the greatest respect, comparing today’s needs to Vietnam’s, or basing today’s needs upon those of…

Yes, but a good majority of those are still flying today and will still be flying some years from now. Quite a few of the airliners that have been retired have been converted to cargo. Airbus has also come online, in a very big way with their A380 and Boeing’s own 777 is providing competition for the 747. Having said…

Maybe now, more people will feel okay with saying “I’m from America.”

Bout time...

Update: Pilot deceased. Tragic and sad day for all involved. Grew up watching the F-16 / A10 low altitude passes in these mountains and valleys - 30-feet above treetop “was” (is still?) common. Not a lot of margin for error, mechanical, etc. RIP

They (the Iraqis) make fine pilots. Don’t lose focus of the fact that a pilot is missing and likely deceased. I know those mountains and that area very well and they’re most likely the most highly patrolled and mapped in the United States, thanks to the folks at the U.S. Border Patrol, along with private ranchers,…

Same article too...more or less, speaking of “used.”

I’d be shocked if BMW and Alpha Romeo’s lawyers were not talking. This looks like a really bad Chinese rip-off of the F30, mixed with a bit of M3/M4. Seriously, if you put the kidney grill on the front and a BMW logo, it would be VERY hard to tell this was not a BMW. Very ugly. What were they thinking? I’m sure there…

Most businesses need to be bonded and insured and although I do not know the law in Florida, I’d be shocked if this was not the case there. This verdict allows the plaintiff to go after the limits of the policy, and, as is sometimes the case, they can seek additional damages from their own insurance company or…

This is Baikonur. It’s located in central Kazakhstan, more than 1000 miles west of Almaty. There’s train service between the cities, so it’s possible to get there. Baikonur is considered Russian territory; it’s leased from Kazakhstan and is governed and the launch complex is owned by Russia. There are tours—costing in…

Agree. There’s no slippery slope here. The reasonable person standard is the most commonly examplified standard argued by prosecution (civil and criminal). Would a reasonable person have known the driver was drunk before handing him the keys? If the answer to that question is yes, there’s often liability for the…

I'd valet it.

No license is required. The FAA has some restrictions on RC Planes. There are designated no-fly zones in the immediate proximity of airports, for example, and ‘some’ RC Airfields require insurance (essentially a yearly membership fee), to fly during organized days; many do not. In the U.S. one self-qualifies…

This is fake. Everyone knows the ‘15 Z06 is incapable of running on a track for 20-mins. without overheating.

Exactly. Well said!!!

I agree Buell was an innovator and innovation is needed in all fields. But, his innovations were not improvements upon anything. They were just different. I don’t think sportbike riders, in particular GSXR owners, care all that much about looks. They care about numbers and magazine tests. To be honest, I fall into…
