Europe on the edge of catastrophe?
Hey all, I'm here to inform you of a very interesting (and scary) hypothesis I've heard during an interview last night. I don't know if you were aware of such, but recently, a lot of the french nuclear powerplants were overflown by small drones ('?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>> if you want more information). The hypothesis was brought by a physician specialized in nuclear security in our country. It's actually pretty simple, and yet fearsomely efficient if someone planned to do this. But first, some explanations. France has one of the world's largest nuclear power. Understand by that that we have an incredibly high ammount of nuclear powerplants, so many that we actually sell a part of the electricity we produce to other european country. In a few words, we could say that France is the ultimate European powerplant. That was for the small info that is going to be a huge factor later. The drones that overflew the powerplants always did it at night or early morning, meaning that the visibility wasn't good enough for regular cameras to take pictures of the sites. We can conclude by that that if the people controlling the drones overflew the plants to map the sites, they had to use infrared cameras. Infrared cameras work by detecting the heat emission. Of course, the biggest heat emission in a nuclear powerplant is the reactor, but everyone can guess where it is considering its size and the huge cooling chimneys visible kilometers away. Also, the reactors themselves are protected by walls of a meter thick made of reinforced concrete, made to resist large explosions and plane crashes. So from there, we can conclude the drones were sent to find something else. And there's actually something else within the plant that release a relatively high ammount of heat, something that seems irrelevant but is all the problem: the transformer. Basically, the electricity coming out of the reactor is low tension, between 200 and 400 volts, and requires to be transformed into high tension current to be sent through the electrical network. For that, they use a transformer. The hypothesis is the following: instead of focusing on the nuclear reactor, someone with bad intentions could target the transformer. If one or two were targeted and destroyed, it wouldn't be a big deal, the company taking care of the powerplants having a few transformers ready in case of an accident. Only a shutdown of a few hours, or in worst cases, days, would be to be expected. However, a total of more than fifteen nuclear powerplants were overflown. If the fiften transformers were targeted and destroyed at once, the whole french electrical network would go down, followed by a good part of the european electrical network. That would mean: No more communication No more cops No more firefighters No more hospitals No more grocery stores And basically all the things working on communications and electrity. Basically, a real post-apocalyptic scenario. And the building of new transformers would take months, or even years in such cases. The economy would crash, Europe would sink into anarchy and be completely obliterated. This hypothesis is even more worrying that it's actually realistic and plausible. A disaster to expect?

Indictment of NYPD Ofc. Pantaleo - Innocent
Well, first of all, faking or not, medical teams, doctors, EMTs and whatsoever they can be called shouldn't BY ANY MEAN even look like uncaring and get callous. They are supposed to save lives, and using the argument of "They meet people faking stuff everyday" shouldn't be a valid argument. Fake or not, they should respond to every call with the same attention, and should NEVER be or look like uncaring or get callous. If they do, then they should change of job and do something else. I do believe they are partially responsible for the death of Garner for not taking care of him properly, as he should have been taken care of like any other victim if the EMTs did their job correctly. Second, indeed the choices of this sir in particular were poor regarding the law, but seriously, wasn't there any other way to neutralize him and bring him to the station safely? Even a good ol' taser seems more legit in that case than a choke hold, the street is not a wrestling ring. Even if the cop wasn't responsible for the death of this guy, he should be sentenced for excessive use of force. He's a cop, he's supposed to be an example to the community, acting like a retarded street fighter is clearly not an example. Also, a cardiac arrest can be induced by a lack of oxygen, relating to the suffocating grasp he underwent. An autopsy should be made to define clearly if that was the cause of the cardiac arrest, and death. And finally, yes the grand jury took this decision, but there's an old saying that could apply to this case in particular: "To err is human". A miscarriage of justice might happen. Might be the case here. I believe so.

Even GTA EMTs did a better job than those ones.

2016 Ford Explorer revealed.
Of course it is, you take everything so seriously that it becomes funny. Seriously though, it's humor, try to laugh now and then, you'll feel good, I promise!

2016 Ford Explorer revealed.
Respectively Peugeot 4008 and Citroën C4 Aircross, with similar mensurations as your Ford Explorer, a few inches close. That's fun that you 'muricans act so offended when we talk about your SUV's, but on the other hand you act just as contemptuous when it comes to our cars as well. Sorry but we don't drive two-doors or Mini Cooper's. We drive regular cars with regular sizes. We just have the sense of proportion. Also, if you are really a lot in your family, there's something called MPV that we use around here, such as: An ancestor to that model even had additional seats in the trunk, turning the MPV into a minibus. tl;dr : tiny cars, in Europe? Nope, sorry.

[REQ] LAPD Ford Police Interceptor 2013/14 Model
To be perfectly honest, I looked at the model in OpenIV and in-game, and the arjent signal of BxBugs's PI is way, WAY to large and fat. It looks more like a gigantic blue and red pill than a thin, oval signal.

Anything that has for only purpose to kill other human beings can't really be considered as "good stuff".
-
What if World War I & II never happened.
With all due respect, I don't think that poison gas, machine gun and other tanks are "good stuff". Personal opinion, of course.

Liberty P.D. Mini Texture Pack.
I find them pretty awesome, especially the hood design! Too bad so few people take advantage of the hoods to make something creative like that.

Well, look at the Prince of Persia games, and then look at what they did to them when they released the movie.

Hm, the shadow beneath the letters seem different between the two sides. Other than that it's okay-ish I guess.

G17 Media DOESN'T OWN SAPDFR,LSPDFR ?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRGd0gD0QNE EDIT: I just noticed that the thumbnail of the video is actually stating "Sometimes I don't speak too bright", I found it rather ironic considering the author of this thread.

Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens teaser
Any fans out there? Personally I came seeing this. Ten years since the last movie, and it looks like J. J. Abrams is doing a good job, and I'm glad to see the universe and the atmosphere haven't been ruined by Disney's influence.

[LCPDFR] Crazy Lunatic Runs Down 7 in Police Pursuit
Sheesh you got lucky he stopped like that (probably because his engine broke), when I'm in pursuit the guys never stop until their car is on fire -and so are they.

Slicktop Chevy Caprice (Request)
The Caprice is probably one of the rarest vehicles around here, I've seen like... 3 of them being released. That's a shame considering it's a pretty awesome car.

Halloween Ride Party of Paris
The Halloween Ride Party of Paris is the gathering of riders and stunters in the city of... Paris (no kidding). This year, no less than 500 people participated to this event, escorted by the police to allow them to ride freely without bothering anyone. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2b4gt4_l-hallowheel-ride-party-a-paris_auto Is this kind of event happening in other cities too? I find it nice that the event is framed by the police to avoid any outbreak or accident.

Liberty City Slicktop Explorer
This model in itself is awfully close to another model I downloaded on this website. As in, same rambar, same lightbars, and everything else pretty much similar except for the license plate lights which are very slightly different.
