A snowmobiler who crashed into a parked Black Hawk helicopter is awarded $3 million
  • Smith’s lawyers argued that the crew of the Black Hawk helicopter that flew from New York’s Fort Drum to Worthington, Massachusetts, for night training was negligent for parking a camouflaged 64-foot (19.5-meter) aircraft on a rarely used airfield also used by snowmobilers.

    The helicopter landed on an air strip approved by the Federal Aviation Administration and the crew members testified that trainings are often conducted in similar locations.

    Sounds like snowmobiles were using an airfield.

  • LAPD raid goes from bad to farce after gun allegedly sucked onto MRI machine
  • An officer then allegedly pulled a sealed emergency release button that shut the MRI machine down, deactivating it, evaporating thousands of liters of helium gas and damaging the machine in the process. The officer then grabbed his rifle and left the room, leaving behind a magazine filled with bullets on the office floor, according to the lawsuit.

  • How did people poop before smartphones were invented?
  • That seems, I'm not sure the word, but not correct. You can find a doctor (any professional) to say anything.

    I bring my phone and keep a book in the bathroom because I'm NOT straining. I sit down, and while gravity is doing its thing to my guts, I read a chapter. I'm not rushing or pushing or popping hemorrhoids because I'm on my phone writing a stupid comment about pooping while pooping.

    I don't think Dr Greg knows how people are using their phones in the bathroom. People aren't reading the back of shampoo bottles because they're in a hurry.

  • Woman who was denied a liver transplant, after review highlighted alcohol use, has died
  • No, not in this case, they weren't taking away someone else's chance. But you didn't read the article. Her boyfriend was a match and wanted to donate part of his liver. Donar A wanted to give to recipient B, there was no recipient C losing out. It was a closed loop.

    "No amount of determination from the (partner) could bend the decision,” said the physician. “There was no process for a second review or appeal. Just a harsh finality ... goodbye."

    She many have not even been the drunkard you all are assuming she was. If you go out once a month, and have 3 or 4 beers, you're not eligible for a liver transplant. That's ridiculous. You may not drink the other 30 days of the month, but that one Saturday ruined it for you; you die.

    A life was forfeit, because some bean counters in white coats -probably not teetotalers themselves- deemed her not worthy. Even though it cost more to let her die,

    Using the most recent data from the Canadian Institute for Health Information on hospital bed costs (2016), Huska’s time at the Oakville hospital likely cost over $450,000 - ($3,592 per day for ICU care) with an additional 61 days in a ward bed which likely cost about $1,200 a day

    A liver transplant in Ontario is pegged at about $71,000 to $100,000 in Ontario based on data from 2019.

  • Rachael rule
  • That's never explicitly stated in the movie. I believe it's hinted at just enough to make you wonder. Which in turn makes you wonder what even makes a human person. In the sequel I think they pretty heavily lean on him being human.

  • Deal'n with a snail problem, I feel bad for you son. I got 99 problems but a snail ain't one!
  • Cockroaches are bad in my neighborhood, walk the dogs at night and you see them scurrying across the sidewalks.
    I sprinkle DE all around the outside edges of my house, especially any nooks or gaps, paying attention to porches and doors; it goes under and behind the stove, fridge, shelves, etc.
    Besides a few spiders, flies and mosquitoes I get no critters in my place.

  • Diversity
  • His videos used to be super good. Charlie was a great addition. But after Thumb EAS'ed from the Air Force they started going downhill; trending in the ways you've already mentioned.
