Says the FAA Designated Engineering Representative who is a full time Boeing employee who has a workplace on Boeing's campus.

If it's a federal life sentence, then surely it should be "federal prosecutors in Virginia," not "Virginia prosecutors." Confusing as hell. I thought this life sentence was in state court with a parallel case in federal court.

S2E17, "Samaritan's Snare". Wesley said it on screen, so it's canon.

There's a decent write-up on the stack exchange.

There are two TOS episodes that directly referenced the "United Earth Space Probe Agency" as the operational command for the Enterprise.

Basically, the United Federation of Planets did not exist when the show started, and its basic structure wasn't settled on until well into TNG. There's a second season TNG where the Klingons are federation members.

It kinda makes sense that if there's any paper, it's the super top secret order book.

What they're saying is this:

1. That land used to have nothin much on it, so it was cheap land, and the property taxes were low.
2. 30 million was spent on building the private wall. I don't think this money came from the land owner. (This is the crowd funded Trump Wall, right?)
3. With the fancy new wall on it, the property is now appraised at around 20 million (or maybe whatever it was plus 20 million). Whether it's 75 times or 100 times what it was before is not super important. The point is it went from not much to quite a bit.
4. Property taxes went up in accordance with the new valuation.
5. Property owner is probably not wealthy enough to pay the taxes, so big picture he can't continue to own the property.

I think nowadays you can upgrade that "sometimes" to "usually." It works out to about a 2.5% handicap to the Republicans.

Some airlines nowadays are trying to sell the exit row seats at a premium as an upgrade.

We should also mention that if you are uncomfortable with sitting in the exit row, federal regulations require the airline to reseat you in a different row on request. You don't have to provide a reason why.

Wait. Did you really mean "decreasing" rather than "desecrating"? Because that's hilarious.

Don't worry, the computer is equipped with Turing compensators that let it figure out whether Kim's program will halt or not.

Polaris goes in and out of North Star status on the 26,000 year precession cycle. So for the duration of humanity (let's say 100,000 years), there have been decent chunks of time where it's not in use.

That guy looks like he's all belt buckle and no cattle.
