Fulton first used instrumented dummies as he prepared for a live pickup. He next used a pig, as pigs have nervous systems close to humans. Lifted off the ground, the pig began to spin as it flew through the air at 125 mph (200 km/h). It arrived on board uninjured but in a disoriented state. Once it recovered, it attacked the crew.

in middle school my friend had to memorize a passage of the torah to recite in hebrew at his bar-mitzvah. not entirely sure what system they used to decide which one he was assigned, but he got to recite Deuteronomy 21:18-21

quote:

If a man has a stubborn, rebellious son who will not obey what his father or mother says, and even after they discipline him he still refuses to pay attention to them;

then his father and mother are to take hold of him and bring him out to the leaders of his town, at the gate of that place,

and say to the leaders of his town, ‘This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious, he doesn’t pay attention to us, lives wildly, gets drunk.’

Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death; in this way you will put an end to such wickedness among you, and all Israel will hear about it and be afraid.

It's chronological (the Torah portions are assigned week by week, so whatever week your bar/bat mitzvah happens, you're stuck with the text assigned to that week).

A young lady of my acquaintance had Lot and his daughters as her Torah portion, awkward for everyone.

Fuck the cowboys. Unf. Fuck em hard.
During downloads, an 8-bit sprite of Mario or Luigi (based on Super Mario Bros.) will run or swim across the screen below three "coin blocks" (there are six different animations of Mario and Luigi in regular, Super, and Fire forms combined; some animations appearing more often than others). When the animation uses Fire Mario or Fire Luigi, tapping the A button will make them shoot fire balls. As the download progresses, spinning coins will appear from the right side of the screen. Each such coin is an indicator that approximately 2% of the total download has completed. Often the display of some spinning coins is skipped, so the total number of coins collected will usually be less than (but close to) 50 when the download reaches 100%. After Mario/Luigi has collected up to 15 spinning coins, he will hit the first coin block to indicate that the download is 30% complete. After collecting up to 15 additional spinning coins, he will hit the second block on the screen to indicate the download is 60% complete. Once up to 15 more spinning coins are collected, Mario/Luigi will hit the 3rd block to indicate that the download is 90% complete. The 3rd block is a multi-coin block which Mario/Luigi will continue to hit until the final 5 spinning coins are collected, which indicates 100% completion of the download.

Just reading the bit about the download animations, it says that when the download gets to 99% mario starts hitting the block, but it also says the coins going across the screen represent 1% and when i've downloaded games several coins come from the side of the screen while he's hitting the block at the end. I dont think the info in the article is correct.

not worthless at all

context: romania has a problem with stray dogs dating back to the communist era, when people living in the country were forcibly moved into tiny apartments the cities, abandoning their country lifestyles and animals. packs of these dogs occasionally attack tourists and eat children etc. so the government variously sterilizes or euthanizes all the dogs it can catch

quote:

In late 2013, the Brigitte Bardot Foundation for the Welfare and Protection of Animals (BBFWPA) took NVDA as a result of the animal abuse. Bardot sent two open letters addressed to either the President of Romania or the European Commission.

The first letter was sent in order to "denounce" the Stray Dogs Euthanasia Law. She deemed the project to be a "project of systematic extermination".[45] Furthermore, Bardot appealed to the "majority" in order to find a "solution approved by the European Union, from which Romania has been part of since 2007". The content of the letter has been received with criticism and skepticism in Romania.[46] The President of Romania responded by saying that "Brigitte Bardot was beautiful during the reign of the Kings of France".[47]

Nudism and arson were the highly visible methods of protest used by the Sons of Freedom. They protested against materialism, the land seizure by the government, compulsory education in government schools and Verigins assassination. This led to many confrontations with the Canadian government and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (continuing into the 1970s). Nudism was a new technique first used after their arrival in Canada. They used violence to fight modernity. They destroyed threshing machines and other signs of modernity. With night-time arson they burned schools built by the Doukhobor commune and even Verigins house.

Apr 16, 2007



Jack Reacher gets off a Greyhound bus in the town of Margrave, Georgia, because he remembers his brother mentioning that a blues musician named Blind Blake died there. Much to his surprise, shortly after his arrival, he is arrested in a local diner for murder! He then meets a local detective called Finlay, and tries to prove his innocence. After finding what seems to be a phone number in the dead man's shoe, Finlay calls and tricks a man into telling him his name, Mr. Hubble. They bring Hubble (as he likes to be called) into the police station for questioning and he soon cracks and confesses to the murder, but Reacher does not believe the confession. Both Reacher and Hubble are sent to the state prison, where Reacher successfully fends off an attempt on his life which, he later discovers was actually intended for Hubble. After two days in jail Roscoe a female police officer for whom Reacher has developed an attraction, proves he is innocent and that his claim to have been nowhere near the scene of the murder is true and Roscoe collects Reacher and they return to Margrave, where Reacher later discovers that the murder victim is his own brother. Hubble disappears, apparently assassinated, and his desperate, uninformed wife wants Reacher to find him. Chief Morrison and his wife are later found, brutally murdered, in their home. In the finale Reacher discovers that Margrave, is home to a multibillion-dollar counterfeiting operation, which he and his newly formed acquaintances set out to destroy.
