Or they could not die after the first few lethal injections and then go back to prison where they can escape. Assuming something will happen doesn't mean we should design our system around the probability it will occur. Just the same way we should drive around with a shield over our cars assuming an asteroid could hit and kill us at any moment.

For the last time, theories aren't guesses, they are assumptions based on facts. For example: if it walks like a duck, looks like a duck, sounds like a duck, acts like a duck, swims like a duck, reproduces like a duck, and eats like a duck, then maybe it's a duck. Unless it's Jesus reincarnated as a duck. Or Chuck Norris.

Why shouldn't they take those same measures when dealing with life sentences? To some people a life sentence is worse than a death sentence. With a life sentence you have the change to appeal. Not so when you're dead. I think this brings up an interesting question. I'm aware that the death penalty is generally considered more expensive than life in prison, but does that calculation consider appeals while in prison? Yes. After a certain point, a criminal can't appeal for their case anymore and has to take their sentence or commit suicide the manly way (duct tape, Dora the Explorer episode, and condoms).

That's something I can get behind. You had an experience, and I'd take that over "evidence" any day. But what you're saying isn't everyone else's beliefs, and I'll stick by what I believe; it's not much different than what you're thinking of. Well don't take what I'm saying the wrong way. I'm just defending what I believe in just as everyone else is. I know I can come off as a [bleep], but I am a female. I'm not so much bothered by the fact that people have different beliefs, my brother is agnostic and I think my boyfriend believes in God, but he doesn't believe in the average interpretation of Christianity. I love them more than anyone else in the world and I get along with them fine. I just don't like when people try to convince me otherwise. I'm very stubborn if you couldn't tell and that's something about me that's gotten worse over time... *backs off* This is a debate for a reason. We're not trying to change your views at all, just arguing to see who has the finest rhetoric. *points to me*

*high fives* I fought it off like a man over the summer instead of taking some [kitty] vaccine. Edit: LMFAO at censor option

No, I expect them to be kept in high security prison for life. I also expect them to work in prisons and at least pay off some of their debt to society. Why shouldn't they take those same measures when dealing with life sentences? To some people a life sentence is worse than a death sentence. Not only that, but they are a threat to the other prisoners too. I'm going to assume that there are factions of prisons where criminals that are high threat are also kept with criminals of the same level of threat. At the very least, I'm not worried about prisoners killing each other as much as I am of prisoners killing innocent bystanders.

I'd try to get my hands on some bones, cheap rares (santas/masks), or some underpriced raws. Even normal stuff, like rune items, will go up in price as long as there's inflation. Investing in stuff like that ensures that your money at least keeps its current value to some degree.

Except there is no proof whatsoever that the vaccination caused that. Correlation doesn't necessarily imply causation. Out of interest, I did a little calculation when I heard about that story the other day, and based on the 10 million or so shots used in the US so far and the 10,000 or so people affected by the most common form of dystonia (I think it may have been even more, but I'll use a conservative estimate), you'd expect about 1000 people who got the shot to have dystonia. Enough to make it plausible that this a completely chance event. As for the topic in general, I agree with fastortoise. Just because it hasn't gone through clinical trials, it doesn mean that it was rushed or is unsafe. There would have been QC checks at all stages I'm sure, and you need to remember that there is a similar process every flu season to make a new vaccine againt the regular flu. Having said that, I think the vaccine is probably best for those in at-risk groups. I'm not convinced it's deadly enough to justify whole-population vaccination programs. First of all, it's MRSA, not MERSA. Second, flu vaccinations don't cause antibiotic resistance (wrong on mechanism of action and target organism - I think this is new for me); that wound be over-perscription of antibiotics. I think what the video was saying was that the girl had dormant dystonia, but the flu vaccine triggered it. And as for your final statement, there are theories floating around that say not giving the immune system enough "practice" can cause it to grow weaker. Probably a load of BS, but it's not outlandish by any means.

That's something I can get behind. You had an experience, and I'd take that over "evidence" any day. But what you're saying isn't everyone else's beliefs, and I'll stick by what I believe; it's not much different than what you're thinking of.

Doesn't explain the prices of sharks and stuff you can't get in shops. I'm just going to assume it because of PvP and inflation. Pizzas are going through the roof though. Pineapple pizzas used to be my favorite source of food... That's off my list now.

Took me two weeks from just a little bit every day. Most of the times I just got bored and didn't play at all, but considering you're more patient than I am, it wont take you more than 4-5 days of playing.

I'd go back 3 minutes into the past and save my food. Like hell I'm going to trust a microwave with a QWERTY keyboard...

That's like saying: "I never leave my house because there's a chance a plane could fall on me while I'm out for a stroll!" Wow... She was so hot and successful, too... Not saying I wouldn't feel as bad if it was a fat person... Just saying... But still, I'll agree with the above statement. I'll bet that more people have had even worse things happen to them after taking the normal flu shot. Still... that's sad... Edit: Watch her become the greatest runner of all time, lol, because if that had happened to me, I'd be running 24 god damn 7.

You'll also have to consider that the bible isn't THE ONLY GOD DAMN BOOK OUT THERE (sorry for the blasphemy). There are other ideas, other religions, and no one's to say which one is correct. Arguing for the Bible isn't just stupid, it undermines thousands of years of other religions that have based the creation of humans and the universe differently. Hinduism is a lot older than Christianity, but I don't hear you arguing about Shiva creating the universe after it was destroyed.

No, we're still evolving. Women/Men with obesity or other conditions wont produce as many children as healthy couples, so there is still natural selection going on. It's definitely slower, but not entirely gone. Edit to Meol: I know the Big Bang just explains the creation of our Universe as it is today (not from nothing, obviously, just from a dense collection of matter), and not other universes (if you believe in the Multiverse) or the "actual" start of our universe. I was just referring to the creation of everything. Edit to my profile: WTF is a Spider Egg? lol.

Use pineapple pizzas/hunter pies. Eat the pizza/pie first, and then something else. If you have a unicorn, you can heal 11+14+20 at once. This also works with brews, but you'd need to restore afterwards. Max heal I know of is 14+17+23

With unicorn and tort with brews, I can last 6-8 kills easily, and OP has better stats than me.

Prayer update was promised sometime sooner or later, but slayer is coming this year, so I'd bet on slayer coming first.

Lol, I use normal restore pots + p pots for my business. You can drink 4 brew doses per normal restore pot, but only 3 max with super restore, so it saves enough space to have a p pot there instead of a super restore.

^ Hey local, it's Guido 49, lol. As for their time systems, it can't be too far off from our own, but I'm pretty sure it was the same. Some cultures have been known to use weird bases in calculation of time and math, but still, since a person was buried in there, itbb can't be too much longer than 22.

Dude... you have awesome stats... You can use the same set up as mine, but a bit different one since I have an Armadyl Plate and Spectral SS. -Verac Helm -Fury/Zammy Stole -DFS/Blessed, Sigil'd, Normal SS/Granite Shield -Karil's skirt -Armadyl Plate/Karil's Body/Zammy D'Hide Body -Diamond(e)/Ruby(e) Bolts (both) -Barrow's gloves/Black vambs (both work well) -Snake Skin Boots/Infinity Boots/Ranger Boots/Dragon Boots(D boots aren't a good idea) -Rune C'bow Your inventory should be 4 p pots, 350 braod bolts (for kill count and minions), Mith grapple, 3 super restore + 6/9 brews (might want to bring more, but with a unicorn, this is more than enough), 225 uni scrolls, 3 pouches + 1 summoned, teli tab, ruby (e)/Diamond (e) bolts (the ones not equipped), Enhanced Excalibur, and sharks/whatever

I'm procrastinating on my Biology research project. If anyone's willing to help, please post a link of where to find information on technology that can detect heat produced at minute levels by the human metabolic system. I'll make love to you forever, figuratively speaking of course... *looks around* If the technology doesn't exist, please something at least close to those capabilities (heat radar wont cut it, lol).

Because my religion doesn't believe in Genesis... Just because some random minority of the world's population believes in something it doesn't mean it's the only competing theory. The Big Bang theory has proof, and Genesis has, as someone has already said, a book that's been known to have been revised tons of times, and if people want to preach from the Bible or any other type of holy scriptures, they have to read the entire thing as actually know what else it says. Most of the things in the Bible are all symbolic and not meant to be taken literally (Genesis isn't one of them, I'm just laying down some fact). Of course the Big Bang isn't THE final answer. It's shrouded in obscurity as well. Here's a little map I like to make to argue against both ideas: Nothing --> God --> Everything or Nothing --> Everything You'd have to ask yourself, where did God come from? Well, where did everything else come from for that matter? If humans can't wrap their brain around the idea of infinity (think of a world in 4 dimension; if you can't, you fail like everyone else in the world), we can't lay down the law. We can, however, try and understand the universe better, but nothing is ever final. To me, that map up there just says that both ideas are completely valid when compared to each other. I view God as an all powerful being, but, to me, that's no different from a powerful "force" in the nth dimension that can control what occurs in all other dimensions of the uni/multiverse(s).

maybe they cleaned it after they finished building it. hell if i was the pharaoh, i'd make damn sure they clean my tomb once theyve finished. or maybe the built it... from the groun up? meaning that the tunnels and rooms inside the pyramid were open air until they were finished, then more was placed on top and they were sealed. theres so many other posibilities that asuming it was aliens or whatever is taking it too far too soon Yup, lol. You got me. That's the only way it could've been built. Edit: And since we're at this point, I should also say that there are many books that refute Von Dankien's claims as false and show proof as well. Just wanted to see how far this thread went, lol.

Whatever the dude up there said and a Verac Helm for prayer. Also, lose the glory for a zammy stole or fury if you have it. +10 range attack wont do you any good, and the +10 prayer from a stole is amazing. You'll pray the entire time, so you want to last as long as possible without downing supers for prayer.
