Those are brush pants. Yes, usually nomex, but they're not firefighter turnouts or anything. And even turnouts will gently caress you up if you douse them in loving GASOLINE. Those are basically station pants.

(I sold my pair for like $180 on craigslist to a ranger rick-type when I quit the ambo)

Smartphone battery explodes after man bites into it


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nA1pFU6jCPE


quote:

According to a report from Taiwan News, a man entered an electronics store in China on January 19 in search of a replacement battery for his iPhone. Seemingly suspecting the battery on offer was fake, he inexplicably decided to bite into the unit to see if it was real. Much to his surprise, the battery was indeed legitimate as evident by the fact that it exploded upon being punctured.

That's bizarre. The coroner doesn't think Tiny constricted him to death, just that Tiny at some point coiled around him, [something happens], guy asphyxiates.

quote:

A postmortem carried out by the pathologist Dr Adnan al-Badri found that Brandon’s lungs were four times heavier than would be expected and he had suffered pinpoint haemorrhages in one of his eyes – signs of asphyxia. He also had a recently fractured rib.

Badri said: “It’s possible that some sort of pressure was applied to the neck or chest that caused him to asphyxiate.” However, there were no marks around his neck or chest.
...
The coroner said he did not believe the snake had been aggressive towards Brandon. He said: “The most likely scenario is that that Tiny was engaged with Dan. I have no doubt she was coiling around him. There was a point at which either she took hold of him unexpectedly or trips him up or there is some other mechanism. She then makes off maybe because of the shock of him falling or the shock of his reaction. I have to accept that Tiny is instrumental in Dan’s death.”

Fuckin' weird.

It means it wasn't trying to kill him, it just coiled up around him affectionately and killed him accidentally.

So the last two in this one seem to be the bus in front with the woman and the one behind hitting her with the old man. What the hell was going on with that old guy. He's looking straight ahead and doesn't even flinch before he hits. How blind is that guy that he can still drive a school bus?

E: nevermind it's the woman rear ending the guy. Same question goes for her I guess. Falling asleep?

A snake isn't strong enough to squeeze the life out of you, it's only strong enough to block the muscles that expand your chest.

Constricting snakes don't kill their prey by squeezing them to death, they just ratchet down every time the prey exhales then hold steady when the prey tries to inhale. It only takes a couple of rounds of this (i.e. your breaths) until you cannot expand your chest to inhale, due to the rigid snake body in the way. There's little direct pressure applied to the body of the prey, but asphyxia is the outcome nonetheless. I once handled a small boa, only about 1m long, and let it wrap itself around my forearm. I tensed and relaxed my forearm muscles in a way that I was trying to simulate my arm breathing - the snake tightend down on every "exhalation" and stayed perfectly still on every "inhalation" - after about three or four rounds I couldn't tense up my muscles anymore but if I was relaxed it was not painfully tight at all.
I got out of that by unhooking the snake's tail from around my elbow - they need that hook to tighten and as soon as I popped that off the snake uncoiled completely from my arm.

It had not occurred to me before that this means there are few or no signs of constriction on the prey's body if the snake doesn't swallow the prey for some reason and you decided to investigate. I guess if you could find a way to motivate an individual snake to constrict a particular individual human it would make a pretty good murder weapon, given the lack of clear evidence. Though that method of death seems pretty hard to acheive any other way.

The best part is that the judge wanted him to hear testimony from all 100+ women he assaulted, and he replied that it would be "too much". The judge responded "so spending a thousand hours raping them wasn't too much?" and proceeded to do it. it was amazing.

Judge Rosemarie Aquilina, who had opened her courtroom to all the young women who wanted to address Dr. Nassar directly, and forced him to listen when he pleaded to make it stop, handed down the sentence, saying to him, “You’ve done nothing to deserve to walk outside a prison again.”

“It is my honor and privilege to sentence you,” she said, and noting the length of the sentence, added, “I just signed your death warrant.”

I have been working out! My modem is broken and my phone eats half the posts I try to make, including all the posts I've tried to make here. I'll try this one more time.

quote:

Just before sentencing Dr. Nassar, the judge read parts of a letter that he had submitted to the court last week, in which he complained about his treatment in a separate federal child pornography case and wrote that his accusers in this case were seeking news media attention and money. “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned,” he wrote in the letter. There were audible gasps from the gallery when the judge read the line.
