People paying American dollars to let other people know they didn't agree with someone's position on something is the lifeblood of these forums.
Palliative/hospice care should involve right to die counseling.

Some people here in Melbourne Australia recently killed a dude, stuffed his bloodied corpse inside a recycling bin, wheeled it over to the next street and left it on the kerb for the garbage man to collect.

Er, that article says it's not collapsing

quote:

When they did modeling back in the spring, engineers pinpointed the areas that were likeliest to have issues. If each structure had been designed and built separately, there might not have been a problem. But in addition to the main entrance, the chambers are interconnected by two interior entryways, which means that the base layers are broken up in three places.

"The models that were done for this showed the two spaces over the doorways were points of deflection where there was a possibility of this thing not staying in the round. The places it's happening are exactly there," Frankel says. The movement up top is "something we are watching, but nothing we are concerned about."

At this point, it seems to have stopped shifting.

Yeah the only other time I've seen a stage lift with really low railing like that was in a funeral home where they used it to lower the casket out of view at the end of the service.

In the last few frames you can see a wall or building turning into very large and fast moving debris heading right at the camera.

There's a couple walls. Someone found a google maps of the place pre-explosion and used that and the timing of the destruction to calculate the shockwave velocity. The conclusion was that the guy probably got gibbed.

That reminds me of the guy who died filming the Mt St Helen's eruption. When he realised he couldn't escape the blast he kept filming until the last possible moment and then cradled the camera underneath his body to preserve it in the hopes that his corpse would be discovered and the footage would be useful to the study of volcanoes.


Edit: his name was Robert Landsberg
