Game Thread GAME# 11: BLAZERS @ HORNETS - NOVEMBER 15, 2015 - SUNDAY, 2:00 PM (PST), CSNNW

[Trackjack]

Von and did pretty good job I would continue going with the 2 youngester tomorrow night more they play more confidence. The good thing the team never quit in the game. Crabbe had solid offense game.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

I'm confused, did we lose a game or a war?

Both.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Good lord you geeks have sunk to an all time low! As soon as I start thinking you are actual normal human beings this shit breaks out!


Sent from my Baller-Ass 5.5" iPhone 6+......... FAMS

 

[Blazers Roy]

lol, I dont think i ever saw Batum play this good, that cat was unstoppable!

Remember all those WIDE OPEN corner 3s he missed last year??

 

[Rastapopoulos]

You guys know how I feel about Nic, so I'm not saying anything!

Did you see Batum at all (other than killing us on the court)? Did he touch base with the few members of the team left from last year?

Why worked you send that to Dame?

 

[e_blazer]

Why worked you send that to Dame?

Hmmm...my HCP to English translator must be on the fritz.

 

[PDXFonz]

I think he meant would.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I think he meant, "Why would you send that to Dame?"

 

[e_blazer]

I think he meant would.

That's certainly the assumption I would make too, but I thought the post must be totally jacked up due to the lack of a "Rookie" or some other form of abuse of the original poster.

 

[handiman]

No, he meant, "why mow when damn lawn needs seed?"

 

[jlprk]

Why worked you send that to Dame?

It must be volleyball in Los Angeles. Google Spanish Translator says it means, "Why did I work that damn sand, FAMS?"

I work for a structural steel bending company. I can testify for a fact that different metals can be contorted at different temperatures. For example... some 6" XXH A53A is going to start to weaken at a different temp than A500.
Steel is not universal and all structural steel comes with MTR's, material test reports. These reports provide complete stencil and yield strengths. The same steel can have different capacities, based on the yield strength from the mill.

To top that off, SAPA, Portland's largest(?) steel mill, just closed down indefinitely pending a federal investigation regarding falsified test reports. In construction, there are corners cut all the time and most are not caught.

Spoken like a true heavy metal fan!

 

[riverman]

Why" worked! You send that to Dame?

I think this was the intention but who knows?

 

[Sinobas]

Dude the skyscraper fucking collapsed, of course it's going to be messy, the after math of any demolition is messy, but it didn't topple over sideways, it fell straight down. Go look at any video of a building demolition. There are vids where the charges don't go off right and the building falls over sideways in chunks.

Controlled demo (tell me this looks straigther than WTC7):


Demos gone wrong.

Orion, the steel used in the towers was certified by UL. Former UL employee Kevin Ryan blew the whistle on this and was fired, because he knew that the steel passed fire tests and didn't collapse.

Meh. Im not refuting or agreeing. Simply telling you what I know, which are two things.
1. Videos, just like the one you posted, can be manipulated. Kevin could have been paid while firing was ruse to cover the payment. He could be lieing. Not saying he is, but in something so complicated as this, you can paint a view from any angle and make it look good circumstantially.
2. Kevin even said there were test reports manipulated in the video you posted. MTR's get manipulated all the time believe it or not. Its crazy, but ive witnessed it first hand myself.

Let me just add one other thing. Steel is very fickle and is not black and white at all. I bet most of you don't even know there is moisture INSIDE of steel beams, and their porousness varies from beam to beam.

I have a repeat customer I send out 2" x .065" wall 6063 Alum ( this is 2" outside diameter pipe that is .065" thick) to a heat treat. They heat this material up to an "O" temp and then bring it to us. We then bend it. Then we send it back and they reheat it and bring it back to its original condition. But the key is... they don't use the same temperature for each process. It is much different. Certain plastics can have chemicals that can burn super hot. How do we not know that the jet fuel didn't first burn a bunch of copy machines that in turn combined to make the fire hotter?
Yes Jet fuel, by itself, tested in a controlled environment burns at a certain temp, but when you add all the ex factors of the building itself into that, the temperature of the fire could be much different.

Again, I'm not trying to argue or prove anyone's point. Just laying down what I know of this, because I do know. I wouldn't say so if I didn't. I work for Albina Co. A company that has been bending steel since before WW2. We are well renowned in the industry nation wide. Check us out. You might find some of the things we can do pretty interesting FYI. www.albinaco.com

There's a lot we'll never know because they destroyed the evidence. It's certainly possible that the impact of the plane + the heat of the fire caused the floor beams to fail. But even if you simply grant that without debate, it doesn't get you anywhere close to explaining how the whole building could have collapsed how it did. There were so many undamaged floors both above and below the impact zone.

 

[BBert]

Sounds like the building was defective. Construction corruption?

So 9/11 was just a giant conspiracy to get us to invade Afghanistan. But the American people never would have agreed to invade Afghanistan if only WTC 1 and 2 fell down and the Pentagon was damaged. To get everyone to buy in to this conspiracy WTC 7 had to come down also.

I finally get it!

Not Afghanistan. Iraq. Afghanistan was an annoying distraction on the way to the real objective: Destroying Iraq then awarding no bid contracts to rebuild it.

Larry Silverstein got 700 mil in an insurance payout from WTC 7. He got 4.5 bil from the towers. He bought them months before 9-11 and terrorist coverage. He leased them for 99 years, which seems like a long time given they were becoming antequated, had high vacancy and were losing money. So he made out really well in the deal.
