Wow, this is so weird. She was apparently just forgotten about and everyone assumed the apartment was empty as people put stuff in front of the door over the years. This is crazy to me. It's just a bunch of strange circumstances that allowed for this.
I found an interesting article that goes into more detail about her and others.
His family history is extremely interesting. There's a documentary about the Armenian Genocide and it talks about the incredibly tough life his mother had just trying to stay alive back then.

It effects cells ability to absorb oxygen and kills the individual by robbing the vital systems (respiratory, brain, cardiovascular) of oxygen. Imagine a fish out of water where the lungs still function by breathing in, but can't absorb oxygen. Additionally seizures are common when individuals are exposed to large amounts.

A forensic ballistics expert conducted an investigation purely based on the ballistic evidence and produced the most compelling, reasonable theory about this I've ever heard. Which is that the 3rd shot was an accidental discharge of an AR-15 by a secret service agent in the car in front of JFK.

Incredibly good read. The ending was expected but wow.
When I was much younger, I looked up to too many wrong people and ended up getting disappointed over little things. Funny comedians whose stand up shows I'd watch on TV, not being quite as clean as I was used to. Little disappointments, really.

Think about the World Wide Web right now. You have tons of different domains (.com, .org, .net, etc), all of which are understood by the Domain Name System. The Domain Name System is what makes your browser understand the website and it magically appears before you.
Tor works a bit different. It utilizes something called "Onion layering". It' rather self explanatory. When you use Tor, you're linked through things called "non-exit nodes". Nodes are volunteers around the world who help transfer you through the Tor network. Anyone can be a node. When it hops you through the non-exit nodes, your traffic becomes encrypted, and no one can see your raw IP address. When you use the clearnet with Tor (AKA the world wide web), you also use an exit node for the final hop. The non-exit nodes are like the boats across an ocean. The exit node is like finally arriving at the shore. However, exit nodes can peer into your traffic if they get really curious. Most exit nodes are perfectly safe and governed by people just like you and me who want to help people browse in liberty.
However, the .onion domain is it's own little feature. The .onion isn't a part of the Domain Name System. It's only understood by the Tor network, so your normal browser doesn't understand it. Instead of using an exit node, it only requires non-exit nodes. Everyone on the "deepweb" appears as localhost, or the IP is 127.0.0.1. It is encrypted end-to-end.
The Tor Project started as a way to help oppressed citizens in different countries browse the Internet. Since then, it's been used across the globe in numerous ways. See how people use Tor here.

There was a custodian in my town that worked for the school district full time, by the name of Patrick Douglas. On his spare time, he wrote and published a book called Niobrara's Thorn, which was inspired by Christian Choate's story. It's written so that kids can understand it the material and my son and daughter's fifth grade teacher reads it to his class every single year, despite the heavy subject matter. My daughter has read the book probably half a dozen times. It's a really sad story.
For further info, listen to this radiolab episode and read "5 days at Memorial" (oops, my hand slipped, didn't mean to post this pirate torrent of the book) by Sheri Fink. I barely scratched the surface. The book is incredible (totally earned that Pulitzer prize) and goes into major detail about the whole thing. It's a real page turner.
It was actually for this very reason that I got my mom and myself one of these. Helps break the window and cut the seatbelt if need be.
She called me paranoid, but a $5 investment could really save your life in an emergency. I keep it in the middle console.
I'm not either, however you are wrong.
After WWII the US army carried out a study to find out why so few soldiers put down deadly fire. Long story short, 75% of soldiers were not trying to kill the enemy, turns out most humans don't have a natural predilection towards killing a fellow human.
The study was done by S.L.A.Marshall titled Men Against Fire: The Problem of Battle Command. Marshall recommended small yet highly effective changes to training. By increasing the fire rate along with the other changes hitting the target during combat became an automatic response, before the soldier had time to think.
This could explain the high rates of PTSD we currently see, as people who lack the inclination to kill are killing automatically, by reflex, but afterwards they have to deal with the psychology consequences of having carried out an act that is not part of their nature. That's a hell of an internal conflict.
The only other information I could find (other than the video's description), is an indiegogo campaign by his former boyfriend Chris Tanner.
Unfortunately it doesn't have very much information about Steve Lott himself.
While not extensively studied - possibly because of its rarity - it's known as GSA or genetic sexual attraction.
Research has shown quite a bit of support for similarity-attraction theory. - Basically we're attracted to people that are like ourselves (with some caveats). Attraction to an "opposite" usually on deeper examination shows that opposite is only superficial.
If we accept similarity attraction theory and that we also develop our analogues for our ideas of what each sex should be from our parents, GSA isn't that much of a surprise.
One suggestion is that while GSA is ubiquitous, it is countered by a natural suppression learned from growing up within a family unit. However when a family is broken up or is particularly fractured, this suppression does not develop and the GSA can occur.

Reposting this comment I made a month ago:
I recommend the book <em>Hitler's Furies</em> by Wendy Lower if anyone is interested in the role of German women in the Holocaust.
I googled it and went like ten pages deep but I didn't find anything that stood out. Santo means saint/holy in Spanish but code is obviously in English. There is a book (in Spanish) called The Code Of the Holy Spirit which pops up, I assume, because the URL has santo-Code in it. This happens multiple times. There's quite a few people/characters named Santo Code but this seems like The Santo Code, not Santos's Code.
Someone is mentioned as cracking the Santo Code in this paranomal romance fictional book but it is only mentioned once and isn't a main plot point so I'm guessing its not that either. Santo Code is also an island. It is mentioned in documents with punctuation between the words ("...santo, code...", "...santo (code...", ect).
Long story short, I have no idea and google doesn't either. There is one mention of the santo code on an old forum but from the google preview it appears to be about coding. I live in the area, though, so I'll keep my ears to the ground.
According to CNET she was sending messages on Facebook messenger 2 minutes before the crash. Not right before the crash like some articles have been saying.
The phone was recovered in April and that's when they discovered the Facebook messages. It wasn't stated but I'd imagine she may still have been using her phone for something else at that time of the crash.
Also of interest is the official website for his TempleOS. Which is chock full of walls of text and biblical/conspiracy type remarks (which is in sync with the OS premise itself). An amazingly gifted programmer, yet it is painful to try and deduce any sense from much of his statements.

Doesn't seem like anyone got shot. Probably just a water gun.
Look, I am pro-gun, but the higher availability of firearms in a market, the more gun deaths and suicides you will see. I'm currently listening to a podcast about Tipper Gore and her crusade against music, and one of the things they talk about is the rise in teen suicide and murder during that time. Gore and her ilk blamed it on music making kids do drugs, specifically pointing at the crack epidemic and linking it towards murder and suicide; but there is solid studies now showing that it was really a flood of cheap guns in the market. (Canada had the same crack problems but without the correlation of additional violence.) At the beginning of the decade, a handgun was $400. At the end, you could buy one for $95 which caused a glut of cheap guns and a rise in murder and suicide due to them. Link which includes the additional info on gun supply.
If you assume that:
A) Facebook will never die out, and will maintain a positive or stable acquisition rate
B) The global birth rate will exceed the global death rate
It turns out that facebook will never have more dead people than living people.
But that’s no fun. What if everyone just stopped using facebook right now?
Facebook currently has slightly over 1 billion active users. The current world population is 6,973,738,433, according to the world bank, as told by a widget on the top of a google search.
So, next up is deaths. According to the CIA factbook, the crude mortality rate is 8.37 per 1000 a year, and relatively stable year per year.
So, now we have numbers.
We currently have 1.01 billion active users. Facebook took off in 2004, so we can estimate the amount of dead users. 1.01 * 8.37 / 1000 * 9 * a billion. So, in other words, about 76 million people have already died after making their facebook page. Every year, another 8,453,700 would die. We’ll double that, because each person who dies also eliminates one who is living (we’re just looking for 'more dead than living, remember)?
1.01e9 − 152,166,600 = 857,833,400. 857,833,400 / 8,453,700 * 2 = 50.7371565113501.
So, if facebook shut down tomorrow due to spiders in the server room and a server staff made of redditors, It would take 50 years, 8 months, 25 days, 9 hours, 1 minute and 56 seconds for the number of dead people on facebook to surpass the number of living people.

The axle broke while they were crossing the bridge and the duck boat crossed into incoming traffic and wrecked into a bus full of Chinese exchange students killing 5. Looking at the pictures of the aftermath, it’s very fortunate more people didn’t die.

But still causing problems.
We are undergoing a meteorological drought in the UK which, among other effects, has set off enormous moorland wildfires in the North of England.
Acid rain had previously changed the composition of moorland bogs and reduced the proportion of one plant type which held in water.
So, paradoxically, acid rain dried out bogs and made wildfires involving them worse.
I had not heard "acid rain" mentioned for years until today, twice - this post and a BBC radio item on the wildfires.
I don't disagree with much of what you said but I got stuck at [citation needed] when I saw that your estimate of medically unnecessary c-sections was 40%. To be fair, unbiased sources were not easy to Google, and although I'm sure there is much more reliable data out there than what I am able to provide, this Consumer Reports story about C-sections on low-risk patients seemed to be recent and Consumer Reports is generally fairly reputable.
The report says that the total percentage of all C-sections, for all reasons and in all scenarios, is about 33%. Of the c-sections that occur on women who are low-risk (I assume this is the data set that would most likely fall under your definition of medically unnecessary), individual hospitals' averages vary wildly from less than 10% to close to nearly 45% of low-risk patients being given c-sections (there is no note as to how many of these were elected/planned by the patient versus indicated by the doctor).
The average across all hospitals was 18%. (The average was 12.6% in 2000, so clearly the number is increasing, but nowhere near 40%). In fact there was only one outliar hospital that was reviewed that had a rate of over 40%.
I agree that there is almost certainly a convenience- and greed-factor when it comes to some doctors in some hospitals, but I think 40% of all c-sections in the US being medically unnecessary sounds extremely high. I think you may be mistaking the number of total c-sections for all pregnancies (lately between 25-40%) with the number of c-sections given to women whose births are low-risk (18% of low-risk deliveries in the US--of which, an unknown percentage are actually medically unnecessary).
Edited for clarity.

Tell that to the people taking thumbprints and coming back fine. People react to those changes in chemistry extremely differently and there are steps that can be taken beforehand to mitigate problems, primarily in regards to knowing full well what is happening to you once you do it. Some people can handle it and some people can't. The 'mental fortitude' is the little voice in the back of your head telling you that it's not real and to calm down, take deep breaths, and focus on something else.

No they're not. They're as humid as the air is, and more humid if there's a person in there. That's why you have a defrost function.
Also, it was over 120 degrees in there by the end of the day. That accelerates both stench and humidity. (See the edit below--the relative humidity was 95% that day.)
Also, the kid had a soiled diaper.
You're telling me that wouldn't smell at 120 degrees?...

Dude, thanks for those book recommendations - all my personal summer reading this year are books about genocides and I was hoping to find a detailed, personal account for the holocaust. I'm definitely going to check those out. They must've been REALLY powerful speakers, I don't know if I could even attend a lecture like that in fear of crying and interrupting their talk. But I'm sure that's a very common thing when they give lectures.
Have you ever read Man's Search for Meaning by Victor Frankl? His account is kind of unorthodox because he tries to incorporate his philosophical ideas and how the holocaust has shaped him. It's amazing that both those women are in their 90s and they still have a drive in them so strong that they will never stop talking about their personal hell until they pass away.
It's hard to imagine people that have been forced into concentration camps and have their entire families murdered were strong enough to lead such a life. Even if the pain is still there 75-80 years later they have to tell the world what happened. Wow.
> It doesn’t have to be specifically illegal to wear a mask for the police to have “reasonable suspicion” that someone walking down the street in a ski mask on a particularly warm August night could be about to commit a crime.
Cool. That’s not at all the issue in contention. You said that it was illegal to wear a ski mask to begin with, and that it isn’t unreasonable to assume that someone doing so on an August evening (I’m not sure where you got “particularly warm” from — the temperature around the time Elijah was walking home was hovering around 70 degrees) is “not sane.” Both are bullshit, the first point objectively and demonstrably so.
> This is why you don’t fight back or argue and why the police will get off in court. The police were within their rights to detain him. most people don’t understand terry stops and think they’re being illegally detained.
A. Even if they were in their rights to detain him, they were not within their rights to assault him and commit manslaughter.
B. The state grand jury is filing this indictment after and in direct contradiction to the county district attorney refusing to file any charges against the five individuals involved. The governor was directly behind the case getting re-examined and a special prosecutor was assigned to the case.

I have the book "On Killing" and "On Combat" by Lt. Grossman. Great read if anybody is interested. It explores all the psychological factors of combat from emotions before/during/after a deadly encounter to how the distance of a kill effects a person.
Anyways, this course has nothing to do with becoming aggressive, but has to do with preparing yourself for a battle which is potentially life/death. In the book "On Combat", it's said that only 2% of people in this world enjoy killing, the rest are trained to do so. This course is for the 98% of other people who may need to use lethal force, but do not enjoy doing so.
No matter what your opinion is on this kind of stuff, I highly suggest reading "On Combat", "On Killing", or both. Very enlightening stuff and helps us understand the psychology behind a violent encounter

It's most likely a fake.
She indeed was (metaphorically) dragged through the mud by some Russian online news sources a while ago following her marriage, all referring to her by her male name and in masculine gender, and basically publicly outing her by including her full name and a picture of her with her husband.
The articles also mentioned that she has received death threats from people of her birthplace(a village in Dagestan, Russia). Dagestan is a deeply traditionalist Muslim region(with things like a religious official publicly stating that all women should be circumcised to reduce their sexuality), so those reported death threats are totally believable.
However, there haven't been any reputable source reporting her supposed death. Moreover, one of the pictures included in most articles is of an unrelated murder, with Google search results dating as early as 2012. Some news sources have also posted a rebuttal of that info, quoting the Dagestani police.

The reason we didn't nuke Tokyo was because we firebombed it so many times that we wouldn't be able to measure the damage done by the atomic bombs. And the reason we firebombed the city itself was because it was the capital. There were no strategic military installations outside of barracks protecting the imperial palace.
That said, a lot of research has been done immorally. And the question of ethics in science has been brought up in the last four decades & and even spawned a bestseller book & movie franchise, Jurassic Park/World, off it. It's the reason so many in the scientific community joke about it:

What do you get when you cross a cow with an octopus?
A visit from the Ethics Committee and immediate withdrawal of your grant funding.
What I like is that morality in science is now becoming a bigger study in that field, considering how easy we saw in WWII to push for unethical studies under the mentalities that drove that war. Speaking of, there's the Plutonium Files if you want a good read. It's the things the US did to itself to find out more about the effects of nuclear radiation.
also, buy a spring loaded punch from any hardware store and keep it in the glove box. they will break almost any car window with a few pops. they are $6 https://www.amazon.com/Automatic-Center-Punch-Brass-Handle/dp/B00O3A2N1C/ref=dp_fod_2?pd_rd_i=B00O3A2N1C&psc=1
There is a really good documentary about this case called Hot Coffee. It's available on Amazon Prime. It does a fantastic job explaining, as many have pointed out, how this case was the catylist for insurance companies and other industries to shift public opinion against the civil justice system. At the end of the day, things like tort reform were another way to protect business interests at the expense of the people.
Yeah, it is pretty nondescript. If it weren't for the small sign and the throngs of tour guides that stop outside of that house, you wouldn't know it was anything special.
I thought it was still for sale, but I can't find any listings for it. My cousin is hoping a trust buys it and turns it into a museum. He wants to get inside to see for himself if you can still hear the screams.
If anyone is interested, White Light/Black Rain is a really great documentary on the subject from HBO.
All or most of the film (Sorry, spanish subtitles)
Yea I've seen similar situations where one among a group of irl friends suddenly dies. It seems to sometimes spur others on to make improvements in their own world (I am thinking specifically of one young man that died of an overdose; not long after at least one of his good friends went sober, so yay to that).
The online friends thing is slightly more difficult I thing in terms of mourning, although things like this happen: http://puu.sh/btytv.jpg They are planting flowers in memory of a friend.
Wow there's even a book.'Dying, Death, and Grief in an Online Universe: For Counselors and Educators'

I'm pretty sure they're still not interchangeable. Electrocute definition in the dictionary does include injury even if death doesn't follow
http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/electrocute
(although to be fair I do believe electrocution implies death). And I dont think the word execute should be used in relation with this article as this man was in no way executed, it was an accident
That's 1 to 10 GB, not a problem for a USB stick, but I see your point. Also, I think that for compatibility, USB sticks are by default usually FAT32 formatted which only supports max. 4GB files (but you could easily change this to NTFS). I imagine the guy telling the cops about the incident, them of course asking for the file, him trying to copy the file onto a stick (quasi under pressure - it has to happen now, it has been announced), realizing that it doesn't work, so he decided to show them the file directly on the laptop, and they wanted to have the laptop instead of just taking a short look at it.

Brazil isn't doing anything intentionally retarded to call attention to itself.
The US is the only country that's willing to blame litterally everything except guns, including doors..
They earned the mockery.
AFAIK they are not simply released, they are placed in institutions. Louis Theroux made an interesting documentary about such a place, you can watch it here. Many of them are never released, and even if they do, they simply can't live anywhere, because people just won't let them flats.
Hi, MetaFilter member (since '07) here. As an early internet blog, a large chunk of the site's user base was in New York at the time, and there were dozens if not hundreds of 9/11-themed blog posts on the site following this initial one. You can browse them via the site archive (sorted newest-to-oldest).
He's most likely suffering from acute psychosis. You can pm me if you want, I suffer from the same thing when I smoke marijuana, which is similar.
You might find pity nauseous, which could mean either that pity is something that makes you sick or that you are sick (feeling "nauseous", which is the same, by definition, as feeling "nauseated" -- by something nauseous). But piteous retains the older distinction: the piteous is the one who "deserves" your pity; piteous people are suffering and the make you feel pity for them. At least that's the state of affairs regarding the words "pity", "piteous".
I still understood what you meant.
decided to remove, not sure if it this was too much for Reddit,? ( being pretty new to it etc) just didn't want any friction for this place, here is the link , if someone else deems it okay to post, https://pixeldrain.com/u/2HeTtzav?fbclid=IwAR2jAEZkubhkp5F7kL7RkFiDXoq02SewNaQaIz34lM4sE2XO9tKpKhNQfdU
There's a terrific book about him, Devil in the White City.
https://www.amazon.com/Devil-White-City-Changed-America-ebook/dp/B000FC0ZIA/
It also has a lot of info about the Chicago World's Fair.
They're too cheap not to buy. Less than $10 for two.
me too! these photos haunted me as a six year old kid, but i was fascinated at the same time. so terrifying but so interesting. this was the one i bought: https://www.amazon.com/Buried-Ice-Time-Quest-Book/dp/0590438492
There's a book called The Popes Against the Jews. The Pope and the Catholic Church definitely knew that there were Germans killing Jews in concentration camps. Hitler prided himself on his Christian nationalist movement and his Catholicism.

Well if you really need some help on a budget, I would at least look into some reputable therapy workbooks on Amazon. It's harder without knowing a diagnosis but you might want to look into a DBT or CBT workbook that is designed to help you work on your own. DBT and CBT have had very positive results on borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety and other related mental health disorders. Generally they are used as supplemental tools with a clinician but I would say that it is better than just having to figure everything out on your own.
Well that's easy.. Use a VPN, set it to a US location. Normally I'd say use the Opera browser, open a private tab and it has an internal VPN set up, but this site was a bit more sneaky. Wouldn't let you read it from a private tab. Could have disabled flash to get rid of that, but used ProtonVPN in stead and just opened it in a normal tab, could read it fine.
Wasted at least 35 seconds of my life though.. All because the eu doesn't understand how internet works, but think they can rule over it.
it's frustrating people are down voting you when your suspicion is correct. anyone who feels the urge to down vote would hopefully get a lot from reading a book like Factfulness.
Great book on the topic.
To Sleep with the Angels: The Story of a Fire https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002CZPRHW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_V33T5TKG16FMA77ENB66
Found out a neighbor survived the fire. Had no idea till after she passed and I saw her pics in some of their class reunions.
This isn't to glorify/give him attention at all. It's just contrasting how someone who's seemingly a normal married man with a kid could do something so horrendous and cowardly.
