I find it interesting that nobody mentions air pollution. Its the number 1 thing I notice when entering a concrete jungle. My throat starts to itch and I notice a slight decrease in lung capacity after wandering around for a couple of hours.
And I do not suffer from asthma nor allergic bronchitis.
I doubt that the air is that bad in your cities, I'd have an easy time believing you if you were talking about one of the cities wich has notoriously bad air quality, but to me it sounds psychosomatic or similar really. Unless you're talking about standing next to an motorway in rushhour.
Listened to Martin Luther King's speech again.
Always worth a listen.
That's copyrighted? The ****. And people wonder why I vote for the pirate party.

I don't like big cities either, I'm far too used to the countryside. I really feel crowded upon in big groups of people. The nearest city is decent, but it's a small town with lots of villas and very few highrises.

I might be getting some work soon, saturdays only, but still. Yay!
The local buscompany stopped running weekend buses to my area three weeks ago. ****. My. Luck.
I'm really not looking forward to sleeping on my friends couch either, it's a tough bargain between that and walking/cycling back and forth in the middle of the night.

Do tell me about what terrorist attacks by "Jesus Ahkbar!" Christians or "Die Religious People!" atheists I've completely missed hearing about...
They use more insidious methods, such as "Evolution is just a theory" campaigns, or "Abortion is murder".

The last couple of months I've been around 97-100kg, at 185cm. I'm a power lifter and not a bodybuilder but I still hate fat and as a fanatic cyclist I cannot afford carrying around too much useless weight.
I don't mean to sound... well, mean, but have you perchance crossreferenced with any other scales? I mean, you look massive in all your photos. Are your bones hollow? Or is it that you have your own gravitational field that is somehow interfering with the scales? ^^
Then again, I'm 193 and your weight..

if viewed attentivelly at the few frames they can be seen from behind, on their backs there is written "police"
Anders Breivik also had police equipment, it's not unlikely that they'd have that to try and blend in later or confuse people.

As it was pointed on a different thread, the situation in Sweden has been exaggerated and the 55 'No-Go' zones are not hotspots of an anarchic dystopia.
Which demographic commits the most crime in Sweden? Or Norway?
You'll have to ask the Swedes.
Swedes. And Norwegians.

LOL, how many of our forum members have lived/live in Sweden, really? Seems like there is an awful lot of us. We should totally have a release party for PoE.
Would've been fun to meet new people, but I'm not part of the PoE kickstarter.

but standing up and peeing is allowed, although there are some kindergartens that have been trying to make boys sit and pee (presumably good for avoiding problems with your prostate gland. I prefer to stand, tyvm).
The risk of them missing the bowl is infinitely smaller than when sitting aswell. Something that seems to be a common problem throughout the ages to be fair. Atleast a friend in daycare mentioned this when it was brought up, never has it been about a feminist agenda.
I'm all for it, I hate seeing those "mysterious" wetspots infront of the toilet.
I have walked through one of these areas (Husby) repeatedly at about 0300 dressed neatly and nothing has ever happened to me...
Working with removing grafitti and gangmarkers I quite often got attacked with nasty mean words. ;_;

Looks to me like the dust comes from just underneath the policemans head, so either it's from the bullet digging into the ground or dust from the pavement agitated by the gas expelled from the gun.

What amazes me is the accuracy, the guy is not aiming at all and hits a moving head while running. Conspiracy or not, thats hard to do even at very close ranges like this. Anyone who disagrees should try running and shooting without aiming.
About the terminal ballistics of typical head shot wounds from rifles, I could post pictures but that would certainly be against the forum rules. Just use google picture search: ''Nuevo Laredo Mexican Drug Cartel Gun Battle'' Be advised, its really not for the faint of heart but shows what it looks like when a 7.62x39 and .223 hits a human skull.
Well, he might've glanced down enough to confirm a hit and not having to shoot again. I've read people say their marksmanship skills were quite high and they were diciplined. From the video he might've shot above the officers head, but he's tracking the head pretty spot on and the camera does'nt linger long enough to see if any blood starts pooling.
Another thing the conspiracy nutter says is that the head would rock if it was shot; Not necessarilly. The officer clearly had tention in his neckmuscles before the shot.
Also, he might've not had a clean headshot, he might've hit the base of the skull, neck or spine.
About those mexican cartel images, we don't know what they might've hit first, if it was ball, or hp bullets and such. Pretty damn gruesome though, as you say.

YAY FOR FREE SPEECH! EXCEPT WHEN I DON'T LIKE WHAT YOU SAY. WE NEED TO POLICE IT!
Well color me sceptical.
Shouldn't a man be allowed to hate too?
I'm not, this falls in line with all the touchy feely poo the corps wants. I do doubt that they'll get it passed though, it's far to invasive. But they'll try, a few years down the road the might actually succeed.

Line up a few jugs of water maybe? Or is it possible to go to the scrapyard and get hold of an old engine and see if you can get any cracking done? =P
I've handled one straight pull rifle my entire life, a biathlon rifle, but I don't remember much of it since I was ten. But I do really like the feel of bolt action rifles, that manouver has some sence of finality to it when you pull down the bolt, so it'd be fun to feel the difference of the actions.

Couple of guys try out explosive WW2 german and soviet ammunitions, and all I can say is damn. Daaymn.

Red label Vitamin D whole milk is best milk. I like a little half-and-half in cereal sometimes, always in coffee. Large curd cottage cheese is creamy goodness, too. String cheese is like candy around here. Maybe I have a problem.
Either 3% or the natural non homogenized milk if I get it from the stores, sometimes I get myself some milk directly from a farmer I know nearby. Now that's the good stuff!

I'm mildly curious, what bluehaired idiot?

I'm in one of those "chatty" moods, where I end up posting nonsense on forums for a few hours instead of doing anything more productive.
Did you know that racoons sometimes like to drag cat-waste bags from the garbage can to the backyard patio, where they rip them open and shake them about? It's really fun. For them, apparently, at least.
I wish there was raccoons here, but I've got... well, foxes. Two of them, or atleast I had this summer. They scare away my cats to steal their catfood only to be chased away by the badger. Thieving bastards.
We do get the occasional drunk moose though. :D
-
Straight pull? I've heard of a Swiss one, K31 or something.
Did you shoot any of those slugs yet?

Those are very valid sources which are almost identical to mine, I know people with a degree in micro biology with a specialization in kidney diseases. (With their knowledge the life of my sick cat which suffered from near-kidney failure could be prolonged by two years) But mainly a lot of highly praised books.
Three engineers, microprocessors and mechanical. And an DNA analyst I think it's called, she's offered to have a looksee but I don't want to know what might be hiding in there.
Pff, too tired to play games, and definetly to tired to read and bored out of my mind. Don't want to go to bed though, since I don't want to mess up my sleep rythm.
-
A good stance, but where do you get your scientific consensus from? Getting reliable sources is the problem. I can only think of a handful of valid and proven sources for, for example, medical consensus .
Generally speaking, I read some science journals and books I borrow from the local library, if I hear something interesting from people that I feel I need to know more about I go looking for more information about it. I have a few friends at Chalmers and Astra Zeneca that I speak to now and then that can clarify things for me if need be.
Not really sources of information but I also listen to the Skeptics guide to the universe wich is quite entertaining and I do read Bad Astronomy and Neurologica blog now and then.
-
yeah, folks discounting science in lieu o' personal anecdotal evidence is why faith healers and rand paul is able to so easily hoodwink folks.
HA! Good Fun!

I'm looking forward to Woldan reaching the age of 30. Everything changes then. EVERYTHING.
The thing that I'm the most worried about is what my friends might do to me for my birthday. They tend to do things big and crazy, and as much as I love them, crazy wild days is'nt really my cup of tea.
I value personal experience, my own observations, over what people say on the Internet.
I'm a sucker for scientific concensus myself, I don't trust my own observations enough about most things.
I might purposefully ignore scientific concensus though, I don't give a rats ass if milk is bad and increases my chances of prostate cancer. I will still drink two litres a day.

My family members aren't mutants and luck doesn't exist, especially luck that lasts for over 9 years, I'm simply making the right lifestyle choices, thats all.
Well, we all are mutants to some degree, it's what drives evolution afterall.
And while luck might not be an actual magic force as such, it's much easier to say luck or chance than saying you've not met contagious people or been exposed.
I'm fairly certain that if you'd have french kissed me shortly before christmas that you'd have a pretty sore throat by now.
Edit; Oh, and thank you for determining what movie I'm going to have to watch tonight!

I haven't been ill in nine and a half years so I guess I must be doing something right.
Luck, fitness and genes I'd suppose. I have'nt gone nine a half months in my life without some illness or the other. I really do envy people that rarely get ill

I laughed way too much at this.
What did he say?
