dispatch documentation
You mean the stuff they print for the pilots, like weather reports and route? Makes sense, I guess. The paper those are printed on might even be standardized.
-
@acrow Yes. The weather reports, routing, NOTAMs, passenger manifests, cargo manifests, weight & balance sheets and such are the main thing that need to be printed at the gates, and you'd want each of those to be a continuous strip of paper so you can't lose one page of it or get them out of order.

Most of these are not printed at the gate. The pilots need them for their flight preparation, most of which is done way before getting to the aircraft at all.
TBH: most of this is done on iPad nowadays, but there is (always?) a paper backup.What is printed at the gate, is the definitive passenger manifest, for last-minute changes (now-shows etc.).

but it makes perfect sense.
As I figured: if you're logging something and you want that log to be real-time, non-volatile, and human-readable, then it's a sensible solution.
Dot-matrix is also the cheapest per-page. If you're printing a lot that becomes a concern.

That includes the seat assignments, which the cabin crew need. Any changes made onboard have to be noted by hand.

What are those?

Those are the lists used by victim identification to work out which body parts belong to whom and crash investigators to work out how those parts got into the condition they're in.

Ultimately, a Taser brought him to the ground, where it took four officers and a K-9 to arrest him.
Dang, I know the cops can't help but jump on a prone figure but I'm disappointed in the dog.

@boomzilla there's a neck tat for shooting yourself in the leg, one hopes.

I like that on my TV anyway that guy's pic at a quick glance after reading the headline kind of looks like he shot himself in the forehead.
-
@ObjectMike that's just a scar from having been shot in the forehead previously.

... North Carolina!

@boomzilla For a while, I wondered why he didn't try to shake off the pursuit by driving across fields. But it says he stole the tractor, so it's likely he wasn't a farmer; it simply didn't cross his mind.

Ah, a farming pun.

@boomzilla if he failed to shout "Wooo!" at any time, they were right to arrest him.

Fort Myers police are searching for a pooping perpetrator
Too bad for him that he left such an amount of his DNA.
Even worse when he himself or one of his relatives sent in some DNA to 23andMe or ancestry.com etc.

Do not go to Florida. For one, you would melt. Also, your radiant Canadian purity would harm the locals - fishheads; they have very few cells.

@boomzilla christ, they couldn't even bother to get a job with the CIA first?

The Justice Department will not tolerate individuals plotting violent attacks from U.S. soil that undermine the rule of law abroad.
Yeah! That's the CIA's job!

I listen to the Lions Led By Donkeys podcast, about various military disasters, from atrocities to logistics failures. It's amazing (horrifying) how often the CIA shows up.

@boomzilla It's hard to imagine that he could have been hurt very badly by a thrown roll of bills.

@jinpa True, but when it comes to assault and/or battery, it's not the degree of injury that matters; it's the intent.

Draper, a mother of two who works as a housekeeper, was not charged in connection with the March 6 threesome. But Draper was arrested yesterday for felony aggravated battery for allegedly striking another sexual partner in his face with a glass vase partially filled with gravel and rocks.
Suddenly the other side's version of the story becomes a lot more credible.

Have you tried cleaning avocado off of optical glass? Or even polycarbonate, it's not so much the material as the surface interaction. And then there's coatings.
