How It's Made - Ice Hockey Rink

There would frequently be a Basketball game one night with a Canucks game less then 24 hours later and a concert less then 24 hours after that. How do they they put things together so quickly?
Maybe the ice is still laid once per year and then a sprung floor is fitted above it, in pre-made sections, when required for basketball or other events?
No idea if this is what they actually do, there would still be issues such as keeping the ice cool without affecting the basketball court - possibly an insulating air gap and/or rubber surface - but it's the easiest way I can think of doing it.
Here's how they do it in Raleigh:

Nice one, seems I was pretty close. Though I'd never have guessed they did a similar thing with tons of dirt for monster trucks - that's insane!

Egypt: A Nation Forced Offline
You know what the sad part is? Everyone hates the people of the US instead of the leaders. You think a majority of the people in the US determine foreign policy? No. You think the people determine where the troops or funding go? No. The only control we have is over who we elect. Which as history has shown consistently, they preach one thing and do the opposite every single time. We think, "Hey! Finally some change and we can fix all the shit we've done wrong!" Then the guy gets elected, gives the people the finger and does what he wants. It just amuses me when I meet people from other countries who automatically hate and/or loathe me for things out of my control. I'm sure there's things we as a whole can do but...
You know what the really sad part is? Most of us simply don't give a fuck because it doesn't have a direct effect on us. So next time you hate someone for being an American, don't do it because of the leaders, at least do it for their indifference. If I could run for President I would, but I just don't have the resources or backing because doing what you say is a bad thing in politics. That's why foreign policy sucks. That's why the shit that happens around the world is out of our control.
Change it or go play basketball with my buddies...99 times out of 100 I'm grabbing my sneaks.

It's just a continuation of the sad, shameful story of American foreign policy since World War II: As long as you're not communist, or are not mean to Israel, you will be our friend, and we totally don't give a shit how you treat your people. And still some idiots are completely baffled about why so many people hate America. Are they supposed to love us when we befriended their brutal leaders? Nope, it's just easier to label legitimately angry Muslims as terrorists who hate freedom, apple pie, monster truck rallies, and the Yankees. And everyone knows you don't have to be a terrorist to hate the Yankees.

If Mubarak is overthrown, I wonder how much money we'll dangle in front of the new regime just so they'll play nice with Israel? Will it be the same as what Mubarak is getting now, or will we up the ante just to show our 'commitment' to the 'will of the Egyptian people'? (If the Egyptian government is toppled, I guarantee that you'll be hearing those platitudes, over and over again.)
In the mean time, no one gives a fuck about the crisis in Ivory Coast. They're too poor, they don't produce oil or any other valuable resource, there are no American big businesses there, and they're too far away from the Middle East to have any influence. I'm sure the US State Department has Ivory Coast (along with most of Africa) on the official "Fuck Them" list.

That's a great observation. No small amount of hypocrisy there.
The US somehow manages to get away with espousing democracy out of one corner of the mouth and supporting crappy dictators out of the other in the name of "stability". 1.3 billion in military aid to Egypt every year ... disgraceful.

I can't help draw the parallel between China's call for restraint after the North Korean shelling of Yeonpyeong (and the condemnation it received for not flat out denouncing it) and Hilary Clinton doing the same visa vi Egypt's protests.

Big Rig Flips Over Highway Median
Looking closely, it seems the second hit form the car was on the front of the right front tire, pushing it to the left with the full force of the impact, and keeping it there. Even if the truck had monster truck hydraulic ram steering, there was probably no way he could have kept control. The driver should certainly fight any claims he (she) is at fault, and use the video to defend themselves. It is clear that the car is in control of the steering of the truck leaving no chance for the driver to correct, or over correct. You can see, when the truck goes airborne, that as soon as the pressure on the right front tire is relieved, the tires turn right, hard. Unfortunately, the tires are in the air at this point, and do nothing.
Top Ten Creationist Arguments
So this is what those monster truck rally announcers do when business is slow...
Tremendous Kite Surfing... Wow...
I was more impressed with his air-time than any implied sport or successful landings.
I have a personal obsession with flight and/or weightlessness, and if watching someone else do some pretty insane jumps allows me to live vicariously through your antics of weightlessness and defiance of gravity (It's the Law!), then more power to you.
I get the same feeling from watching astronauts, skateboarders on halfpipes, bmx jumps, motocross jumps, watching planes/helis take off/land, watching monster trucks leap over stacks of junked cars, watching parkour, gymnastics, etc.
And with such an extensive, readily available list from which to pull examples, I can't be the only one that feels this way.
It's all about the air-time man... the air-time...
The landing is just a crafty way of avoiding injury after the fun stuff is over.
Arcing Powerlines Cause Tree Fire & Explosion
I wanna say something snide and snotty about Bellingham, but it's actually a nice little place. Apart from all the monster-truck-driving hill-billy crank-spun fucknuts who call that burg home. I mean, other than that, yanno.
TDS: Democratic Super Majority
This is the first time that I know of were an epic fail did not result in a win...
-small edit- DSM will now no longer be announced by the monster truck guy, it will be from Carol Channing.
Can A Nun Drive A Monster Truck? - Top Gear.
When the nun sees the monster truck for the first time Richard Hammond should have turned to her and said "Where's your God now?"

Memorare= have you tried airshows? drag racing? Strip Clubs? DRUGS? These people you loathe are freaking awesome at their taste in entertainment! You need to be if you live in a trailer!
I for one love monster trucks and will now play Motorstorm to compensate the fact I have none.
