And yet, the comments here are sort of proving that point.

Well, you don’t understand the legal system at all.
You cannot submit new evidence in appeal, and again, the appeal was of the lawsuit for the Wrongful Termination. The whistleblowing was a separate item handled 7 years ago.
John Barnett had not worked for Boeing for 7 years, that’s why that’s the only part of this timeline that mattered. He turned over the evidence that he had, and literally could not collect more, because he was forced into retirement.
There’s a chance he might have been called on for testimony by someone investigating the current and ongoing issues, but he had already submitted extensive sworn testimony on the subject, so there would be little need.
But that wrongful termination lawsuit, that was personal to him, and he was losing the final appeal. Hell, the reporting at the time of his death even said that he “retired” rather than being forced out of the company. That alone should tell you something.
But no, you want to spin an outlandish conspiracy theory based on a complete misunderstanding of the law and this man’s life, all to say that Boeing, an admittedly evil company, is evil in a more personal way instead of the nebulous greed based evil that infects every corporation. The truth is, the company and its executives don’t fucking care.
They’re shielded from liability and have gotten their payouts, they ruin lives, and their greed has resulted in deaths as planes fall from the sky, but they admit no wrong doing and pay a small fine out of the employee pension fund. That’s the true conspiracy. Not some made up contract killing of a man who was no threat at all, because all of his evidence was submitted to authorities 7 years ago.
Yes, it was a suicide, because his testimony wasn’t part of anything related to whistleblowing, he was appealing a loss of the wrongful termination lawsuit against Boeing.
The idiots who never bothered to learn more than the man’s name think “big company killed whistleblower” are showing just how little they understand things.
To recap, all the evidence from his whistleblowing was submitted to authorities 7 years ago. He had no bombshells to drop, no story that hadn’t been told, just a lawsuit over how Boeing retaliated against him for Whistleblowing 7 years ago, forcing him to “retire”.
A few days before he killed himself, he was on the stand in front of the appeals judges, and from all accounts, they did not seem like they were going to overturn his loss. He was then called back for another round of testimony, but was already dead by then.
Can you imagine a 7-year legal battle over being fired for having integrity? The stress this man must have felt?
Boeing killed John Barnett, but they didn’t pull the trigger, he did. Don’t cheapen that with lies about some sort of conspiracy. Just know that Boeing is one of dozens of companies who have worked for decades to weaken labor protections.
#4 is to start the apocalypse so that Jesus will come back and kill all the Jews who don’t believe in him.
I’ve literally heard that exact reasoning from nutjobs who know just enough about geopolitics to know that using a nuke in that region would start WW3. Anyone using a nuke in that region would start it. Unless it’s someone like North Korea. That would just mean the end of North Korea as everyone else banded together to take them down.
Anyway, beside the point because no one is insane enough to listen to Lady G.
Guardians 3 was good.
Mostly because they weren’t trying to shoehorn future movie plot setups into it.
On that note, the Holiday Special was also pretty good.
Shang-Chi wasn’t a bad movie… Not one I’m likely to rewatch much, but a good popcorn movie…
Other than that, no Marvel has started falling into producer interference mode, where every movie must explicitly set up the next, even if they don’t have a full plan for what’s next.
They’ve lost sight of the key to their success; telling a tight, self-contained story made by people who love the characters.
The calcium carbonate in hard water precipitates out when you boil it, i.e. it turns solid.
Microplastics make for great nucleation points for the calcium carbonate to latch onto. So, the microplastics became super easy to filter out of the water (with some getting stuck to the bottom of the kettle in that white scale that you have to use vinegar to clean out.

Maine doesn’t really have anyone “upstream”.
The sad thing about Oblivion is that there are in-game books in Morrowind and previous games that describe the empire as being in the middle of a bamboo jungle. The vibe comes off as the Roman Empire in South East Asia.
Instead we got generic high fantasy with the occasional guy wearing Roman armor.
Only as far as storyline and setting go. Other than that, it was an okay shooter.
The thing is, the exclusion zone isn’t uniformly radioactive. The hottest spots are not areas that wild life would normally spend a lot of time near.
Then there’s the fact that the way we’re all taught about radiation and cancer is just flat out wrong. The Linear No Threshold model that most people know was actually created by the Rockefeller Foundation in an attempt to slow the adoption of nuclear power.
Combine those two factors, and you get stories like this, where researchers are shocked that higher than average radiation exposure doesn’t equate to a simple linear increase in cancer rate.
Not that these wolves haven’t developed an increased resistance to radiation. But it’s not a new thing. Every living creature on this planet has mechanisms to repair DNA from radiation exposure. These wolves are simply better at it now than generations past.
No. That’s incredibly unlikely.
The Judge here doesn’t want to get the damages thrown out.
Trump presented zero evidence in his defense, and zero financial data, so getting the current punitive damages thrown out will be an uphill battle to say the least, but if the judge were to start messing around with increasing the damages without a firm legal reason, they could be appealed easier.
That something was that they were bought out by a right wing billionaire.
Rail is most often welded together, not joined like this.
So you likely don’t need more than one marking.
This is more of a correct answer than you’d think.

Cutting costs and laying people off makes the books look slightly better (more cash on hand) which makes the stock price jump, which is all these ghouls want because they’re going to sell off on the high, and then bail out.
A Likud party member who is A-Okay with Nazis…
Continuing the traditions started with the Lehi terrorist organization.
That story is sort of wild, Avraham Stern and Yitzhak Shamir tried for several months to ally themselves with the Nazis, Fascist Italy, or anyone fighting the British in WW2.
They also carried out terrorist attacks and assassinations of anyone who they believed stood in the way of a Jewish ethnostate based on Nazi race science, just with Jews put at the top. This included other Jews who were seen as too friendly with either the British or Arabs.
Stern was killed and Shamir took over Lehi, and was leader for some of the bloodiest attacks on Arabs leading up to the 1948 war. Prompting this open letter.
Skipping ahead a bit to 1983, Shamir became the second Likud PM, and Netanyahu’s mentor. He also issued out the infamous Lehi service medal.
That’s not how it works. Making money today is the only thing these ghouls care about, ruining a company or brand is just dandy because they won’t be holding the bag when it bursts. They’ll have passed it to someone else. Someone else who will then work to gut the company even more before selling it to someone who will gut it and close it down.
And nothing of real value will have been made, but lots of rich asshats will be slightly richer.

People contemplating suicide tend to do that. They put on a false front, saying that they’re okay when they really aren’t.
Couple that with a bad session in front of the appeal judges… and yeah. You can see why he did it.
A 7-year legal battle to overturn his loss of the lawsuit against Boeing for their retaliation over his whistleblowing… And it was looking like the final appeal, his final chance, was slipping away.
