Have not personally seen that one. Had a similar experience in reverse, though. On my old Ford Ranger, I had a sticker on the back window that was a wheel, each spoke had the symbol of a different religion. The cross was a Constantine cross, with the chi rho superimposed over the crucifix. (Looks like a P with an X over it.)
Constantine crosses are pretty common throughout Christianity, but not commonly used in the southeast. I got a lot of flack from people thinking that out of all the religious symbols, the cross was "X-ed out."
Even if the environment doesn't enter into the conversation, the economic incentives to purchase an electric vehicle make it a very enticing option, if your driving needs can be met with the limitations inherent to them.
But as for your original question, the math's been done. Even if you power an electric vehicle by a coal-fired plant, assuming one charge per day, the electric car results in fewer greenhouse gases than a comparable gas-powered internal combustion engine.
I have never met someone with one of those bumper stickers that is anything approximating reasonable or tolerant of opposing viewpoints. Which is really a shame, because the concept of those stickers is one I can get behind.
Upon further inspection, it was found that it's just a regular, gas-powered Golf.
We already have a 30 front with three down linemen, so we already are mixing in some 3-4 principles.
Bud's gonna be like this guy?
I like this move. It was obvious Cornell didn't have enough work to keep him busy. Assuming Scott picks up Bud's scheme without any major hiccups, this move will free up Bud to "float" among the three groups during practice as needed, and just in general worry more about the defense as a whole than any one position.
Question for the gurus out there: is it more common practice to have a DC coach a position or no? Just wondering if our old way or our new way is more the norm in college football.
Bud answers to Fuente. Fuente will most likely tell Scott to answer to Bud.
No. Actually, he changed his name to avoid detection from the Empire. His birth name was Lu'Kam Chancelwalker.
The prophecy just said there would be a chosen one who brought balance to the Force. It never required a virgin birth.
If Anakin was conceived through the Force by some method Sidious had learned from Plageius, you could certainly argue Anakin was "chosen."
If we're going to lose a position coach to a division rival, I prefer it to be when we're completely revamping our entire offense. No trade secrets revealed to the Third Richt.
Yeah, but college football was wiped out years ago, and everyone thinks it's just a myth now..
An underlying current in Supreme Chancellor Palpatine relaying the legend of Darth Plagueis the Wise, specifically the mention of being able to "influence the midi-chlorians to create life," was a veiled reference to the possibility that Palpatine had a hand in Anakin's conception, perhaps in trying to create the perfect apprentice to be his bulldog during the Jedi purge.
When you say conduit, that to me doesn't paint a favorable picture. I hope the D staff can find cohesion. I like the idea of having a position coach with DC experience...as long as he understands who the DC is.
What defensive scheme did Scott coordinate at Memphis, and how hard is it going to be for Scott to learn how to coach LBs in a way that fits Bud's scheme?
When was the last time a P5 champion wasn't ranked in the top 25? I don't think that requirement is necessary in a proactive manner. Maybe if a P5 conference has a champion out of the polls two years in a row or something. I honestly don't see that happening though
Kylo Ren was shown to be bleeding in his duel with Finn and later with Rey. He also kept pounding his abdomen while fighting with Finn, and it sounded like he had some sort of body armor under his robes.

I used to have a lot of respect for Andy Bitter, but that's about gone now.

When did Luke use telekinesis and telepathy in ANH? First time I remember him using telekinesis is in the ice cave on Hoth and telepathy was when he called out to Leia from Bespin.
Eight spots. Five P5 champs, highest rated champion from a G5 conference, two at-large. Only way to do it.
And the verdict is in on that. It failed. They will now go back to the drawing board to figure out how to get out of the NYE timeslots, because they are ratings poison.
Nobody watches commercials. But it's still ad revenue that supports the whole endeavor of the CFP. ABC sells the ad space with a pitch of "look how many people will see your commercial." That's the way ads have been sold since the dawn of television. And a 36% dip in ratings hurts the network's pitch.
I dunno. Remember, the Rose Bowl got left out of the Bowl Alliance because they refused to break from the Big 10/Pac-10 matchup. They came to their senses real quick when they say how successful the BA was, came back to the table and the BCS was born. The CFP has even more leverage than the BA did, and I guarantee you if the Rose Bowl's refussal to negotiate on date harms the bottom line of the CFP, they will leverage the hell out of the Rose Bowl.
I think you're confusing the CFP with the the NCAA.
Had a similar conversation with a professor (chemistry, maybe?) about how godawful for the environment photovoltaic cells are to manufacture. The conversation ended with him arguing a shift to solar is still a net plus for the planet because, if properly manufactured, one photovoltaic cell lasts decades, with no further pollution to the planet beyond the manufacture, as compared to coal-fired power plants, which are continuously polluting.
That's always been my rule of thumb. As long as it lasts long enough, anything battery powered is going to be better than something run on an ICE, because on on hand you've got environmental impact during construction, and on the other you have pervasive and persistent environmental impact.
