It's the actual glass bottle that I prefer. I also prefer drinking beer from a pop off bottle instead of a twist off. And either much more than a can.

The batteries would then need to be more easily accessible and a more standard shape. You probably couldn't have batteries in the wings. I would imagine commercial planes would take a hybrid approach. They would have their own primary

I was in service during the the start of Wikileaks. We got talks about how going on that site and viewing classified information that is against the UCMJ. It did not matter that the information was now public.

The people that were ultimately responsible. Which I would argue is the voters. It's a neat trick. Lawyers take 600m out of the voters back pocket, hand back 400m, and the people rejoice.

When deciding on a name for my 2nd child, I wanted them to go together. I looked up which years were the most popular for my oldest, and looked at lists of names that were popular in that timeframe. I think you could also use years to sugge

I like a common first name and uncommon middle name. The first name gives anonymity. The middle gives uniqueness that is rarely used except when you want the full formal name and want to be sure you have the right person.

Epcot at Disney World is like that (or at least used to be like that the last time I went 20 years ago).

Yes Regan lifted it but the damage was done. Say you are a company that is thinking about spending a few billion on a nuclear powerplant, are you going to take the risk when a single person, that possibly might change every 4 years, can dec

Obama did not dial it back. His ATF moved guns across the southern border which resulted in US deaths (Fast and Furious). Gave weapons to Syrian rebels. Gave weapons to Libyan rebels.
