Indeed, the police's preferred terminology is inaccurate and sensationalist. It almost makes you wonder if they have an ulterior motive (such as, say, scaring the public into accepting their increasingly totalitarian abuses of authority).

Bullshit. Pressure cookers are becoming more popular again, especially because of shows like Iron Chef (where they use pressure cookers all the time because everything has to be ready in an hour).

Let me know when they start rounding up dozens of people for no reason

Do I really have to start citing Ferguson and Baltimore, you fucking moron?!

Our country is "uninvadeable" because of geography, not people with small arms. You can bet if a large standing army were to decide to enter the US, a handful of people with 9mm pistols aren't going to stop it.

Exactly, and that's why the restrictions on so-called "assault weapons" are an unconstitutional travesty.

That almost makes it sound good (for the US): when the bubble pops, America still has all the material goods it imported, while the securities the foreigners bought simply evaporate.

1. Rule 1: put most of your money in a total stock market index fund (60-90%, depending on how risk-averse you are) with the lowest expense ratio possible.
2. Rule 2: Put the rest of it in a bond index fund (10-40%), also with the lowest expense ratio possible.
3. Rule 3: Never, ever sell, even in the worst recession imaginable, except to rebalance or (after retirement) to withdraw living expenses.

Rule 3 is the hard part (psychologically), which is why so many individual investors screw it up. The key is to understand that recessions are irrelevant because the market always eventually goes back up. (And yes, I am including Japan's market in that statement. If you had dollar-cost averaged into Japan's stock market before it crashed and then kept doing that, and did not sell, then you'd still have managed a decent return once you account for dividends.)

With interest rates at historic lows, excess capital causes investment bubbles. The result is too much money chasing too few great deals

Time for good old fashioned taxes

Its hard to convince Americans in general to wear seat belts.

It's our God-given right to have the freedom to allow our brains to be splattered all over His Grand Creation.

Modern take on Honeymooners: "To the moon with your job, Alice!"

Or suggests NASA workers need a vacation and a good f8ck.

At least it's not Java

So are people who think virgins are better, but it's what their market seems to want.

ACA is not "free healthcare"; it's required insurance. Very different. Sure, there are subsidies, which is fine by me when inequality is so high.

And, early retirement makes room for the next generation to work.
       

A bit harder to transport to a client's office, though.

These machines are obviously aimed at a particular niche that full desktop workstations can't cater for.

The article says you have have Win 7 Pro with this one instead of Win 8.1 if you want.
