Every commercial cabin has a designated Least Risk Bomb Location (LRBL) Once a bomb is determined to be in the cabin they can move it to that location. Funny to think of them actually finding a Fitbit with that name and then moving it there. Then procedure would be to stack up luggage to absorb blast energy.

Pilots are explicitly trained to deal with high risk situations and to think rationally. They have a Threat and Error Management(TEM)system. Additionally, the training includes unruly passengers and bomb on board response. Once a threat is determined they squeak 7700. Inform ATC using the words "bomb on board", begin immediate descent and divert to the nearest suitable airport.

I remember this too. Those bootlegs were $30 each and my friend group was really into Pearl Jam. If I remember correctly a lot of these were made out of Italy. In college (maybe late 90s) I somehow managed to come up with $500 to buy a CD burner. I would make copies of these bootlegs and sell to friends for $10. I couldn't keep up and made my money back to pay for the burner relatively quickly. I think I was even able to find some to download then burning saving me the $30 at the record store. I made my own funny CD covers. Once I got my money back for the CD burner I just asked for the cost of the Cds. Great trip down memory lane.

This one comes to mind. It was quite expensive and Uma Thurman's father was involved when I used to get the catalogs 20 years ago. They have private and custom tours available. www.nomadicexpeditions.com

Some others. www.nomadicexpeditions.com www.geoex.com - Digging the 22 day train trip through the Silk Road for $50k

How about around the work via private jet? https://www.smithsonianjourneys.org/tours/around-world-priva...

I grew up in NW lower Michigan. Cherry and other fruit tree country. Orchards need a lot of labor to maintain to get marketable fruit. I've seen several go wild and become deer feed. Also, they don't really scale as the grow as you need to spend more on infrastructure. Orchards now plant dwarf rootstock. This results in trees that bear fruit quicker but don't grow much larger that a human can pick by hand. They need a lot of care (water and pruning) relative to larger trees but the economics of the larger trees don't work as well as they take many years to bear fruit and then they need the infrastructure to prune and harvest because they are so big. It's not a simple thing at all.

Wait until I tell you about the bootleg version I get get from China for $9 for 5mg bottle of Semaglutide. It lasts a month for me and works great. You have to mix it with Bac water yourself so there's a little prep and there isn't a plastic infector. Have to inject yourself with a syringe. These are 3rd party tested so there is some level of safety involved.

That time is here. I'm not all that smart and have made several quadcopters from parts. These do not have the geo restrictions that the commercial ones like DJI come with. There are thousands of people across the country doing the same with FPV drones. I live very close to a base that it's not uncommon to see Air Force One lands. I've often wondered if they have some sort of jamming software. It would be very easy to cause problems in a crowd and it's just a matter of time.

"Two years after the eruption, they tested this theory." Has the science community just given up on the word hypothesis? It's not that complicated and in the USA the word is taught almost every year starting in elementary. When a science driven website like this has given up then we've lost the theory/hypothesis distinction.

You may have a case if there isn't access to any other tech. My five year old son and I use the PC and 3D print to make cool contraptions. We use a computer for Xlights to make light shows for the holidays. He isn't quite ready for online gaming but that could be an option in a few years. There he would, hopefully, be able to have communication with people around the world. This link references smart phones and the unfettering access kids have that rewires the brain due to the short quick dopamine hits of social media.

I'm 6' 2" and weigh 215. I ride my bike 20 miles/week. Not a lot, but not nothing. My goal isn't really to lose a bunch of weight. I'm always hungry and I'm eating plenty. There's an ongoing hunger background noise in my stomach and brain. I'm definitely doing some self experimentation to get this figured out.

Chicago huh? Are you talking Naperville or did your kids grow up in an apartment on Lakeshore? The context here means a lot. Surely you wouldn't begrudge a parent in Detroit (outside of safe downtown) having a device to communicate/locate their child.

I think most people would agree, but problem is enforcement. I worked 20 years in a low SES school where education was less valued. What do you do when you try to take the phone and they refuse? Suspend them? Sure. Then they come back and do it again. Then the state does an analysis and you have to explain that there is a significant number of students missing school because of a phone? They talk to you like it's ridiculous. Kids need to be in school. If you can solve the "what to do if they don't put it away" problem you'd be a hero in education.

Harrison Township, Michigan goes to Harrison City, PA. I then tried the city to the south - Saint Clair Shores, MI and that took me to San Antonio, Texas. I'm working in East China, Michigan and that took me to East Chicago, Indiana. I ended up just using Detroit, MI to get anything useful. So, no, that doesn't work either.

Relatively new father here. Had no idea what had happened to children's game. Candyland, for example, is composed of a box,plastic player pieces, colored cards, and a board. I had no idea that a company could create such a shit product from such simple parts. The vintage game I found will continue to be passed to generations. The new Candyland board ripped apart after playing several times and is in the trash.
