Pretty sure (IANAL) that is coercion. And a coerced signature is void.

There is nothing new here. Lots of WW2 fighters had water (or water/methanol) injection. All we’ve really learned since then is metallurgy and better control systems (EFI).

Running shoes with big padded cushy heels. Since I’ve switched to shoes with minimal padding and a level foot bed my knee pain has decreased (oh and my feet are stronger too).

Coaching was definitely a factor. Was taught that heel strikes were more efficient. Also: instead of running long distance, I should have been sprinting.

Running was clearly bad for my health: at 17 I f’d up both of mine. “Oh its just shin splints, run through it.” Yeah, until I couldn’t run through the pain any more. Quit running track, bloated up like Pacheco’s pig. Found out later that

I could tell you where they are in the willamette valley. Also, a friend is moving to John Day Oregon, and they also have a fiber network there. Outside of Oregon I have no idea. Maybe search for telephone cooperatives in the areas you want

I live in rural Oregon. I have fiber to the house delivering gigabit speeds. The local co-op exists because the phone companies didn't want to wire the area so the farmers did it. Then they put conduit in the ground and started putting

Wife was formerly a dispatcher with the Sheriff’s Office here. They had numerous run ins with autistic kids freaking out and hurting people. “He's autistic” becomes not an explanation, but a warning.

Well, the CNN coverage I saw didn’t mention 3 shots. Also, there was no video of the shots being fired. Note, I’m not saying there weren’t three shots, just that often the first reports get things wrong. If he was indeed shot 3 times, the

Piss poor trigger discipline. The officer kept his finger on the trigger even when he didn’t intend to shoot. I hope the therapist guy gets a big settlement out of this.

My only experience has been with child porn and terrorism stuff found on servers I worked on. In our case, we burned all the files from the users' account, html/access logs/etc, to CD, and handed them over to an agent who ap

Imagine that you're driving in the San Joaquin valley in the winter, it's a clear night, that stars are visible because a recent storm washed all the crap in the air that floated down from the Bay Area. You're doing 70 or so,

Name an inexpensive easy to acquire and work metal that would be a good substitute? Should we use gold? How about depleted uranium? Tungsten maybe, but it is spendy and shatters on impact.

To be fair, rifle bullets whiz through soft (cop) body armor like through cheese. It's a matter of velocity, pistols just don't have the oomph to penetrate, and pretty much all rifles do. The "green tip" ammo mentioned

Only if its a supersonic projectile AND its still supersonic when it passes the mic. Assuming a 115gr 9mm +P (.167 BC) that leaves the muzzle at 1275fps, the bullet slows to subsonic velocities between 50 and 75 yards. Assuming standard d

You’re not counting labor costs, tracking down an issue with an older car can be seriously time consuming, and that time costs something like $75-100/hr. For instance, my fun car had a persistent miss that made it basically undrivable.

My dad works for the IRS. Got an SMS from him the other day: "I owe 11k!” Guess working for the IRS is no guarantee of getting your withholdings right.
