It's also why real trains have no traction! It probably lost most of it's speed from traction losses, not gravity slowing it down.

Train loop was a random Imgur post I stumbled across, went back and scoured comments for a possible source but nothing that I found. Will link the gallery it came from (of one image) maybe someone with more effort can find more. http://imgur.com/gallery/RWUKZC5

Event organizers for GamerCon in Ireland, their first "professional" game con, sold 24,000 tickets for a 9,000 person venue (7,000 after booth and event space were set up). Cue a lot of angry Irish people in massive queues in the rain. Other highlights include: -Not testing games before the event leading to a whole bunch of consoles that spent most of the day downloading game updates. -Event organizers completely forgetting to actually buy copies of Street Fighter V until two hours before the Street Fighter tournament and then frantically trying to download 12 copies before said tournament over the convention centers wifi. -Having a total of 5 volunteers in the main hall trying to corral 5,000 attendees. -Forgetting to get food for the volunteers working the event. http://kotaku.com/irish-gaming-con-sounded-like-a-disaster-1793424888 From what's popping up in articles the worst part is that there have been a large number of amateur-run similar cons in the exact same event space that had no problems at all and yet the professional organizers for this event apparently never attempted to reach out to any of them for knowledge or do any sort of research on foot traffic.

1. Highway is expanded 2. More people drive more often, because they think it will be easie4 3. Gridlock It's happened many times in many cities and we never learn. Highway expansion is a dead end.

All the exposed rebar in the second gif vastly increases the rear end-pucker factor there.

You were supposed to see you could lift a bag of cement over their head the longest, but after about 15 seconds someone would sneak up behind them and slit the bag in the middle, spilling the contents all over the new guy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOpdLMDOKyU

FogHelmut posted:http://m.ocregister.com/articles/freeway-747028-helps-construction.html Luckily I am working nights but I drove home this morning(eastbound) and one definite improvement is that the westbound fastrack lanes were moving freely. Before the addition it was usually just as congested as the regular lanes, sometimes worse. In my opinion, I am not sure what they were thinking when they designed it to only have entrances/exits at the ends(other than the Green River/241 gap). The fasttrack lanes function fine with multiple openings on the 10 and the 110...
