    France Surrendered. Apparently some number of French players are refusing to play in their last game of the group stage against South Africa tomorrow. Not sure how many. This to protest Nicholas Anelka getting sent home for fighting with the coach. Wonder if FIFA will let them place more players on the roster. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    A good friend of mine and a long term smoker quit using Chantix. She had tried many options (including cold turkey) and many times before. Any way that helps you quit is a good way. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    Would love to watch, but can't watch a stream here at work. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    This group is so even I predict all four teams go into the last match day with a chance to advance. I don't believe any of these teams are good enough to dominate the group. One tie is not going to spoil anybody's chances of advancing. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    I thought we were supposed to add at least 15 pieces of flair to our canopies? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2ZyF8Ufz4Q "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    he puts out this amazing piece of parody and you think it's real? I agree, this thread is awesome! "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    Good gracious, if people aren't willing to ask their partner whether they have any STDs before they start sleeping w/ them then they really shouldn't be having sex at all. I cannot for the life of me understand why anybody people wouldn't talk about this before being intimate. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    MacGyver can use a scrambled egg to pick a lock. Chuck Norris just roundhouse kicks the door in. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    You are a cute young chick, so yeah, they're going to be more than okay w/ you hanging around the DZ. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    Rebreather? I would think that you would reach pretty damn fast decent speed under canopy at that high an altitude. What would your vertical descent rate be under a canopy at 100,000 ft MSL? "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    As a Vigil owner this makes me feel mcuh better. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    My understanding is that there was some talk of him trying for the late fall window (I think October?). The problem w/ that is that the balloon was one use only and though the crew tried very hard to deflate it without any stretching or tearing, the designer would still not certify it as safe to make another attempt. The balloons are very expensive so he either needs to buy another one, which he lacks the funding for, or he need to find a whole new balloon crew willing to put him up in a balloon that the designer won't say is safe.

    35/2=17.5+7=24.5 Yup, he's a pervert. But some of you say pervert like that's a bad thing.... "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    I was going to post about the patient-provider part, but you beat me to it. I don't think you could get in trouble in the 2nd part either, at least not for telling a 3rd party they had herpes meds. Maybe if you trespassed on their property to dig through the trash you could get in trouble w/ the trespass. Even if their trash is sitting out, though, the Supremes have ruled that a person has no expectation or right to privacy in their trash. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    They will hire the employed first. Once there are fewer employed people willing to leave jobs or those employed people are demanding too much salary to leave their current job then employers will hire unemployed people. Simple supply and demand. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    One big problem is that this test of the reserve was being done while the balloon was being inflated. Why all the testing wasn't done earlier, I will never know. Anyway, the balloon was only designed to be used once. He never actually got off the ground. And yes, it was indicative of wider issues. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    At least by the letter of the law it would be admissible in my state. Whether the judge would let you do it or not is an open question. Amazing that judges don't actually follow the laws or procedures they are supposed to. The only exception here is that one part consent recordings are not admissible in divorce proceedings.

    My state is a one-party consent state for recordings. Hopefully that would apply to recording police officers as well. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    Yeah, right, if they had surrendered they would have been beaten to death by "peace activists" "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    My girlfriend said if I went skydiving one more time she was going to leave me. I sure am going to miss her. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    That's the New Testament, so no, the IDF never got that part. They are more the "eye for an eye" types. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    I did not call him a dirtbag. He is a defendant (or suspect at the time) and he has rights. The only way the Supremem Court makes case law is in the context of particular cases. Sometimes they tailor their rulings very narrowly and sometimes more broadly but they always make law around the circumstances of particular cases. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    This guy had two different, but equally effective ways to exercise his right to remain silent: 1) tell them he wanted to remain silent 2) remain silent. He did neither. I have no sympathy for him. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

    How were the police supposed to know that he wish to exercise his right to remain silent? He apparently was answering some questions. His claim that he wished to remain silent and was exercising that right by remaining silent is just nonsense. Nobody (except the defendant himself and I am not even sure about him) knew that he wished to exercise that right. The defendant had a couple of ways to exercise his right to remain silent: 1) Telling the police he wished to exercise that right or 2) actually remaining silent. He failed to exercise his own rights. This does not even seem controversial to me. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"
