Old timey anti-Communism. Check out 1:20 where a private Citizen keeps the police out by demanding to see a warrant, like that wouldn't be met with beating or an arrest for refusing to obey an officer at this point, probably back then too.

Despite what the caption on the last image says, that is not actually the coolest crossover between airplanes and beekeeping.



This is Amos Root, beekeeper. In 1904 he heard that a couple of bicycle mechanics from Ohio had managed to get a heavier-than-air vehicle to sustain flight. At the time, no one was really taking their claims seriously, because the world was full of failed attempts to do this (both honest and not so much), and the Wright brothers really weren't into the whole publicity and fame thing, so he found them in a cursory back-page article somewhere. But Root decided that they merited closer attention, so he went out to meet them, personally witnessed their flights, and produced the first long, detailed writeups about their work. He submitted them to Scientific American, who blew him off, so instead he sent them to a publication he already had a pedigree with, meaning that the first serious reporting on the invention of powered flight appeared in the January 1905 issue of Gleanings in Bee Culture.

I want an episode of Drunk History about this guy.

The statement of the family seemed relatively OK with the fact that their boy was with Christ the Savior and they would be seeing him on the other side. I guess if you are thoroughly convinced of a benign afterlife its a little easier on the conscious to pass deregulation laws. Accidentally killing someone mustn't be too horrid if you can apologize and make up for it sometime in the future, you can even put if off for ten trillion years of bliss to wait for your victim's potential disgruntlement to subside.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_Park posted:

This one ride has come to symbolize Action Park, though it was rarely open.

In the mid-1980s GAR built an enclosed water slide, not unusual for that time, and indeed the park already had several. But for this one they decided to build, at the end, a complete vertical loop of the kind more commonly associated with roller coasters.[51] Employees have reported they were offered hundred-dollar bills to test it. Tom Fergus, who described himself as "one of the idiots" who took the offer, said "$100 did not buy enough booze to drown out that memory."[46]

It was opened for one month in summer 1985 before it was closed at the order of the state's Advisory Board on Carnival Amusement Ride Safety, a highly unusual move at the time.[4] One worker told a local newspaper that "there were too many bloody noses and back injuries" from riders, and it was widely rumored, and reported in Weird NJ, that some of the test dummies sent down before it opened had been dismembered and decapitated.[4] A rider also reportedly got stuck at the top of the loop due to insufficient water pressure, and a hatch had to be built at the bottom of the slope to allow for future extractions.[4]

The ride supposedly reopened a few more times over the years. In the summers of 1995 and 1996 it opened for several days before a few more injuries forced another shutdown.

Those who rode it have said that more safety measures were taken than was otherwise common at the park. Riders were weighed and hosed down with cold water, required to remove jewelry, and then carefully instructed in how they had to position their bodies to complete the ride.[52]

For the remainder of the park's existence, it remained visible near the entrance of Waterworld. It was dismantled shortly after the park closed and has never been rebuilt.


quote:

In 2016 a new similar Cannonball Loop will open. The ride will feature a vertical drop, a teardrop shape loop, and a coffin shaped cage riders will ride in.[54]

lol you call that a tent city?!




This was a block from my place, they're finally clearing it out. It started out as a sort of protest at the lack of services for homeless people here and it worked, the province gave millions to finally expand some of the shelters (yay I get a low-barrier shelter next door now, maybe it will keep my renting from going up $200 a month every year) . Then the balance of the camp turned really lovely and criminals and violently mentally ill pushed out the originals and the whole place turned into a mix of a guardless asylum and a bandit camp. Mountains of stolen bikes and goods, tons of assaults within the camp and towards random people nearby. A lot of political fallout and conspiracy theories that the mayor purposefully allowed the camp to get bad to force the province to better fund the local shelter system.
