Saw a story yesterday that said the gas product is being refined to the minimum possible level to allow it to be exported for foreign sale. New mini-refineries are being built on the Gulf Coast for just this purpose.

23AndMe received a warning letter from FDA because they are marketing a medical device without a determination of substantial equivalence - http://www.fda.gov/iceci/enforcementactions/warningletters/2013/ucm376296.htm

The tweet is from October, yet the story is released now. Either the two are unrelated, or the story is being released due to the current climate.

Wait, what? An F-16 capable of carrying near 18,000 lbs of weapons and flying at mach 2+ is replaced by a drone flying at 240Mph carrying 3800lbs? Well, I'll be danged if someone in the DOD should not be fired for that decision. I could see it if they replace a squadron of A-10s with hundreds of these for close air support, but F-16s?

And the true irony here is that The Boys from Syracuse used to be an A-10 unit before they went to F-16s. And what did they do with them when they went to the Gulf back in 1990? They hung gun pods underneath them.

It's stupid going both ways. In the good old days twenty years ago, you had three cars in front of you, told the nice person at the booth that you were going to the ballet, and you got waved through. Now, you get a baseline interrogation. And if you say "work", you get to talk to Immigration. C'mon Canada, I thought we were friends?

Jump to the front of the border line, and pass through the booth in less than 60 seconds. One third of the total trip time on my last two visits to Ontario was sitting in line.

Except security systems rarely exist without a human component.

Well, may as well keep it a holiday in the US, since a good portion of the country will be hung over, still drinking, or watching football.

Lots of boobs!

The stuff in drilling mud isn't pharmaceutical grade.

Chromebook has one choice to make, within the item - Wifi or 3G. 90% of the other items in the list are fragmented by model number, and thus don't fully represent their brand/OS/display/HDD/insert_option_of_choice_here as a single data point.

It sounds like the FB interviewee who wrote TFA might be an exceptional candidate for a /. editor

Read poster's previous history - a shill. Communism has yet to work because those in a place of leadership corrupt the system, and the individual still gets screwed - pretty much the hallmark of all systems today.

Another alternative to hot + vinegar. Uses a veggie base of carrot, onion, and garlic as well as habanero.
