As a child I saw something similar almost unfold at Yellowstone. My father pulled over to the side of the road by a loan bull. We couldnt figure out why, we had seen plenty of buffalo. A pickup in front of us had stopped and a guy got out of his truck to take a picture of the buffalo. He had one of those 115 Kodak instamatics, so he had to get really close.
Dad said,Watch kids, youre about to see a man die.
Mom snapped at Dad,Oh Bill, dont say that!
The bull charged, the guy dove through the the window of his truck, the Bull hit the door of the truck, leaving a huge dent.
That was so cool! came from the back seat of the car.
The issue with high speed rail is that morons dont follow the law. Every high speed line would have to be completely segregated from all pedestrian and road traffic. No crossings, only overpasses. All the overpasses would have to have extensive fencing to keep people from chucking stuff at the train. The track would all have to be new because the old track is in poor shape.
The commuter lines into DC are a mess. In the summer they run slow trains even slower due to heat restrictions on the track.
Similar doc situation. I am on BCBS, take a kid the doctor, doctor charges $120. I pay 20, insurance pays 100.
My friend is on a low cost high deductible plan where regular visits are negotiated, but not paid for. Kid sees the same doctor, he pays 60 cash.
Essentially, the doctors office is saying they need an extra $60 to do insurance paperwork. Not sure if that plan is available anymore post Obamacare.

AOA is a powerful tool, but in my experience it is less reliable than normal pitot static instruments. Even in carrier based planes where AOA is the primary landing speed instrument, we always checked it against airspeed before commencing the approach.
By incorporating it in the MCAS system, Boeing is making AOA a primary flight instrument. I would think you could add a comparator between the two guages, with an associated light, and corresponding procedure.
This rate is more than double the previous few years. In the face of more internal enforcement our economy must be pretty awesome. Numbers like that are close the numbers during the housing boom.
Trump is as close as we will get to a third party president.
As far as the constant attacks by the left, we would see those on any GOP president, even a turncoat like Kasich. That is the new norm from the Democrat party.
Not sure why this is news. This happens a lot around Calexico and Yuma. The routes the illegals take often require crossing the irrigation canals. In the wrong conditions, swift currents and low water levels, that makes climbing out on the other side difficult.
