Motorboat does impression of Killer Whale in the wild
This is probably the whale trying to tell humans, "shut the fuck up with all of the fucking boat engines already!" Whales can't hear each other communicate with all of the noise pollution, which has led to all sorts of problems.
Amazon Prime Air Service - 30 minute Amazon Deliveries
I'll fill in a few et ceteras:
-noise pollution
-visual pollution
-dog & cat heart attacks (although that's a good name for a band)
-dangerous return policies
-the absurdity of dildos delivered in this fashion
etc... etc...etc.
Just because something's possible doesn't make it a good idea.
So many potential problems with this.
Security while traveling in airspace.
Getting FAA clearance.
A collection of plastic delivery bins that are not as easy to recycle as the standard corrugated cardboard boxes.
Theft of really, really cool quad copters.
Battery life of quad copters probably really limits the radius of travel for deliveries.
Amazon would have to build way more processing centers, making costs go up.
etc...etc...etc
Dove: "I love you!" Cat: "Trying to sleep here..."
TURN DOWN YOUR TV!
I like loud things as much as the next person (I play the guitar), but the amount of noise pollution in that house annoys me.

Hooray for air and noise pollution!
Indeed, a notable lack of care must go into these kinds of demonstrations.

Three men have beat Sasuke: the original guy, Nagano Makoto, and the shoe salesman.

>> ^ctrlaltbleach:
Announcers never cheer on the American version of the show. This lady has won several times but I can't remember if a lady has ever won in the mens competition.
lol. not even the men win the men's competition. In fact, in all history of the show only two won.>> ^lucky760:
It's worth mentioning that this is not the same Ninja Warrior tournament that only 3 men have completed, Sasuke, but the women's version, Kunoichi.
Even more worth mentioning is that not only did Ayako Miyake beat Kunoichi her first time out, but she won three tournaments in a row. Impressive.
Only two ever won SASUKE. Also, KUNOICHI is kind of a joke. For comparison, the third stage of SASUKE (the men's competition) has no time limit; that's just how difficult it is. And after that you have the final stage, with a rope twice as long as the women's pole. IMO, they could just have the women do SASUKE with less of the upper arm endurance (replace it with full body endurance or leg endurance) and add time to the time limit on the first, second and final stages. The fact that such a scrawny girl, an acrobat at that, won shows it takes more balance/coordination/lightness than muscle/endurance/speed to win KUNOICHI, so the girls who train with SASUKE in mind are disadvantaged (especially, they can't have enough muscle and endurance to beat SASUKE, but they have too much to beat KUNOICHI which requires a lighter, more "balanced" - in every sense - body).
Also, the English commentator is piss-poor. It's even more infuriating than the Japanese guy who keeps screaming like she's winning the first freaking gold medal of History. At least the Japanese guy does it consistently in a crescendo and not only when he thinks there's "action" happening in a weird counterpoint or worse, whispering for no reason since she CAN'T BLOODY HEAR HIM. The Japanese guy comments live and doesn't whisper, why the hell would he do that. He should be imprisoned for noise pollution over the airwaves. Also, get rid of the ridiculous overlays, it's distracting.
First woman to beat Ninja Warrior

Snowmobiler Causes Avalanche and Gets Buried
Evolution in action is right. I don't wish death on anyone, and I sincerely hope all those dummies turned out OK, however snowmobilers ARE noise polluters of the worst kind, the bane of North American winter hikers and cross-country skiers.
Come on, Mother Nature, give 'em another good scare. They need to learn about respect.

Rock & Roll is a thing that needs to die (Rocknroll Talk Post)
Just because they couldn't master it, doesn't mean Rock & Roll needs to die. This is a band that plays musical styles such as surf rock, Persian, Arabic, Indian, death metal and electronic music. I'm gonna have to bet on them sucking and Rock & Roll staying strong.
Rock & Roll ain't noise pollution, Rock & Roll will never die!
This baby does NOT like the call to prayer
thay should be done for noise pollution, how owuld people like it if i played techno for 3 minits 5 times a day on full volume so the whole town could here it so bs,
Frequency Crowd Control
The UK government refuses to apply assault and noise pollution laws to Mosquitos because, like all politicians, they're whores and afraid of losing the votes of elderly bigots. No surprise to see things are the same in another corrupt and failing state.
Anyone assaulting me with one of these devices would end up eating it.

I think the most galling part about that article is the fact that Ticketmaster -- as if they're not already making enough money -- is actually running the scalping site. Isn't scalping supposed to be illegal?

Looks like Canadians are getting a royal screwjob by scalpers: http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/story.html?id=68a13dcb-29ce-4719-9204-3230d6476e11
