You missed the sound of the old man peeing....flushing....then returning without ever using the sink.

Sad, because this issue IS important. These diseases are spreading throughout the world, are deadly, and are making our antibiotics useless. Most people can't even imagine a world without antibiotics, it could get ugly fast. I would bet that nearly every hospital in America is infected with some strain...that's where my mother in law caught one.

From recent experience, I can say these diseases are mostly easily transmitted, sneaky, destructive, expensive, and often deadly. Most people don't find out they have one until they have an adverse reaction to treatment for some other infection, that adverse reaction can be deadly organ failure, high fever (103+) respiratory distress, etc.... Normal treatment with antibiotics can make things exponentially worse! Many can be spread more easily than a cold, and are spreading rapidly worldwide.

Do better, eh? No problemo.

China: Try reading the actual study (from your first link).

Conclusion:
A timely two-dose MMR vaccination schedule is recommended, with the first dose at 8 months and the second dose at 18–24 months. An MR vaccination speed-up campaign may be necessary for elder adolescents and young adults, particularly young females.

In other words, what's needed is more vaccination.

How Vaccines Harm Child Development: They don't.
First, the article is by Russell Blaylock, who believes "he former Soviet Union tried to spread collectivism by covertly introducing illegal drugs and various sexually transmitted diseases into the United States." He also hangs out with Alex Jones and Pat Robertson.
Second, almost everything in it is bullshit. He even falls back on the "vaccines cause autism" bollocks that was never true and had the idiot shill doctor that made it up stripped of his credentials.

Measles vaccines kill more people than measles, CDC data proves
Holy shit, that's terrible. Oh no, wait, it's a complete misrepresentation. No-one died from Measles, BECAUSE THEY WERE VACCINATED AGAINST IT.

Stop getting your medical information from quacks, liars and homeopaths.

True story.

Went to the presentation at school, at night. All the boys went one night, the girls on another. Fifth and sixth graders, but my mom took me as a fourth grader, my brother went as a fifth grader.

After both of us had seen the presentation, my parents sat with us in the backyard. Asked if we had any questions.

I had one. "How does the sperm get across the bed? Does it crawl?"

They showed all the apparatus, but they never told us the delivery method!

My parents didn't answer then. My dad tried to tell me later. Always at dinner time, which was weird.

I learned by then that this was something not to be discussed (picked that up from my parents, clearly!) Dad would try to tell me, I would squeal and run upstairs.

My father is not a patient man.

One night, he leaned over and unplugged the toaster. "Gale, in electrical terms, this is the male and this is the female." And he plugged in the toaster.

I squealed and ran, but the info was transmitted.

Stupid Disney movie didn't tell us.

This was in 1963.

The world isn't static.
For example, the J-20, between its stealth capabilities and its ability to jam radar, significantly lowers the range of our BVR radar guided missiles, because our radar guided missiles can't track them beyond a given range.
So you have to get closer - ideally without moving into range of the opponent's missiles.

A Super Hornet (which BTW is an ~entirely new plane compared to the original hornet. It's not an 'upgrade' to an existing airframe.) can't move in closer without exposing itself to fire.

Furthermore, the F35's ability to get closer than conventional fighters makes it 'take point' for information gathering and transmitting data over the network.

Yes, the F35 is has a wasteful inflated budget in large part architected to throw money at political friends - but the vehicle does exist to plug a real hole.

I would think that thy have on board cameras and recordings or live transmitting to drive up that cost and another 100% increase just because it will be use by governments

From a technical standpoint I wonder if it would be possible to mount something on the roof of the building to re-transmit light over the park, or even built into the structure of the building itself?

I don't know this for certain, but I think it so likely I'll just make a categorical statement: They have to push a button to transmit. There were probably quite a few literal fucks given before that button was pushed and orders relayed.

Happened across this while looking at avalanche videos

if you're interested,....

generally you wear a transceiver (sometimes called a beacon). Everyone wears one and it constantly transmits. If someone gets buried , the rescuers switch to search mode. Old transceivers just beeped faster as you got closer, but modern digital transceivers generally have a distance and direction readout. They're still only good for about 100 feet.

You have 15-20 mins to dig someone out before Bad Shit happens (oxygen depravation, etc). The digging itself takes most of the time, so finding them quickly is imperative. All of which assumes they haven't already died of trauma in the initial slide.

Lets go to an easier access method shall we?
Wikipedia explains pretty cleanly what the Shannon-Hartley theorem is;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shannon%E2%80%93Hartley_theorem

It relates to how much information you can transmit in any system, given a signal value, a noise value, and an available bandwidth for information in that system (sound spectrum, light spectrum, electrical RF spectrum etc.)

It's fluid dynamics, so for the purposes of the model that they CFD'd and the practical experiment, it doesn't matter whether it's air or water (they both can be treated as fluids), the outcome is the same... both have temperature dependent viscosity, are subject to frictional forces, and transmit forces through pressure etc. The principle of operation won't differ, but the efficiency may.

Your examples are flawed.

Place a rose-tinted glass in front of someone, and they would think you've placed a rose-tinted glass in front of them. The would expect the image transmitted by the glass to be rose-tinted as well.

Place a white sheet in front of them, and they would think you've placed a white sheet in front of them. They would expect to see a white sheet.

Place a clear object, such as a drinking glass, in front of them, they would think you've placed a drinking glass in front of them. They would expect to see through it, maybe expecting a perfect image, maybe a distorted one.

Fill that glass with water, and they do NOT expect to see a reversed image. It's an illusion. The arrows are not faced right, they are faced left, but they SEEM to be facing right.

By your yardstick, a mirage, the most common form of illusion, isn't.

So when you don't wear proper protection heat escapes most from that area. Yes, which means most of it escapes through people's heads (Because fewer people wear hats than pants) and therefore it isn't a myth (Although I knew this answer before watching the video anyways.)

Like how if everyone always wore condoms and had a lot of oral sex it would be likely that most sexually transmitted diseases would be spread how? But by his point it would be false and silly to warn people...

But selenites would develop acute sensitivity to acoustic vibrations transmitted through the regolith. Good luck bunny hopping back to the safety of you lander, Lander Calrissian.

Human behavior is primitive, but the bible outlines exactly how a man should live to be at peace with God, the world and himself. There is nothing primitive about that, and in fact, if everyone followed what the bible said there would be peace on Earth today. The knowledge transmitted by Jesus Christ is not primitive compared to modern understanding, it is transcendent of modern understanding. Western civilization owes quite a bit to the bible:

http://www.amazon.com/Book-that-Made-Your-World/dp/1595553223

The bible is concerned with Earth because this is the planet God created for us to live. As far as the rest of the Universe goes, we're on a need to know basis.

It's sad that people actually believe this shit. Holy fucking batman that's scary . . . that people can be this retarded by religion to believe this nonsense. The very fact he says it "maybe" transmitted by sexual contact just shows how far in the hole his head is, and to say "we used to think" about Grids (the old name for AIDS) is a further example of the blind stupidity religion can cause. We "used" to not think ANYTHING about AIDS because it was a "gay disease only affecting gay people". So it was *this* close to being illegal to research a cure. They quite literally just left sufferers to die of their "sin" until they finally caught on that AIDS was actually affecting straight Christians (the same people they just pronounced dead due to homosexual conduct.) Only then did they care to find a cure. Love thy fucking neighbor my ass. More like Love Thyself and give everyone not like me the middle finger and hope they die.
