    How do you lose a 777?

    I wouldn't trust the Malaysian government as far as I could throw it. I'd believe Rolls Royce over them any day. Edit: I don't mean that with my typical tinfoil hat, distrust the government thing either. Malaysian government, IIRC, seems to be in a contest between the forces of ineptitude and...

    Interesting report. http://documents.latimes.com/what-90-cascadia-mega-earthquake-could-do-pacific-northwest/ I guess the race is on between the Cascadia Subduction and the San Andreas fault as to which will produce the next Big One in America. Maybe the New Madrid Fault wants in on the action.

    Getting fingerprinted...what a hassle

    Because it raises the government's awareness level on you a bit and gets you on a few lists (probably more than a few these days).

    How is your commute to work?

    Malls are dying

    New Urbanism: "Cars suck, people who drive cars suck, suburbs suck, big stores suck, no one should have more than 400 sqft or any private outdoor space. People should live in apartments on top of small retail stores where they shop and walk or take transit to their jobs."

    New Jersey Judge Blocks Dad From Delivery Room

    I never understood the whole natural childbirth thing, and remember thinking, 'wtf, are you kidding?' the first time I heard about it in the early/mid eighties. Seems to be undoing years of medial breakthroughs. When both my sister and I were born, Mom was knocked out and Dad was in the...

    Why People Don't Use Mass Transit

    I looked into riding the bus a while back. Turns out it would save me something like a buck fifty a day for fare vs gas. But, I'd have to ride three miles to the bus stop (the bus that stops a few blocks from the house doesn't get there until an hour after I start work), the bus commute would...
