Arthrogenic muscle inhibition

The nervous system will inhibit muscle contraction in the muscles surrounding an injured joint to prevent further injury

I had something like this happen to me after a relatively minor knee injury. Kept having pain, weakness, and instability. I had to train my leg to work normally again. I did strength training, working each leg individually with very light weights and gradually (over many months) worked up to heavier and heavier weights. It taught my muscles to fire normally again.
If you play the backups the only thing you accomplish is give them more leverage for NIL money when they transfer
He's 6'5" and his head would probably touch the rim if his body/neck were completely straight. So around a 43" vertical assuming this is the top of his jump

Speaking of winning, Bobby is 0-3 and his offensive skill players have single-handedly cost Arkansas 4 games this season.

Nobody’s going to snatch Silverfield from us! 4th dimensional chess
If BP can keep the offense humming (I'm confident he can), hire a good DC and let him do his thing, and navigate the NIL world competently, then doesn't he give us as good a chance of winning as anyone else?

Hiring a good DC and navigating NIL are the parts that we can't be sure about. But having a great offense is so valuable and if we hire someone else, we need to make sure they can either coach a great defense or do as well or almost as well as BP on offense.
If we were to hire Petrino, could we get a great DC to come here? Could we throw NIL money at defense to bring it up to at least average?

It’s just tiring to watch the hypocrisy on this board.

You either are for or against cancel culture over mean tweets and words. I’ve always been that way and hate to see the people on here u turn so hard and go all in on it.
That's nice but 80% of this board is still going to pretend like you hold a caricatured set of beliefs so they can take out their pent-up anger on you

What would she sue for, wrongful termination? Wisconsin is an at will employment state.

She COULD be sworn in at a pro-forma session without friends and family, etc. at the ceremony. But since the day she won (before certification) they have made drama about this linking it to the Epstein files (Biden hid Trump's involvement right?) so Johnson basically has taken the position of if you want drama, I'll give you drama and had delayed he swearing in until, as is tradition, the House is in session.
Yes it's pretty much just a power play. He previously swore in two republicans in pro forma sessions. He's refusing to do it now because of partisanship. Example number 19,317 of how politics in our country is broken and farcical. Please note that I'm not pretending that the blame is only on one side. The whole thing sucks.

Not sure about this but wouldn't the Marine oath include upholding the laws of this country? You cannot selectively ignore the laws you want.
No, this is the oath:

"I, _______, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."

That's what everyone misses. Chinese government as focused their economic expenditures on infrastructure, transportation, and energy. Our government's main expenditures are social security, medicare, and defense.

Completely different set of priorities and goals.
They do spend quite a bit on social programs. See the section "National Government Expenditure by Items"

Retirement age in China was 60 for men and 55 for women. It's being raised to 63 and 58 respectively. They get pension payments in retirement

quote:

NJF saying on his programme tonight that Charlie owned his own security organisation (a US outfit that he bought).

They are gutted bc they wanted him to set up elsewhere on the campus. Says that Charlie personally chose that location because it was the centre of the campus and looked like the Colliseum and he insisted that he be set up there.

They didnt like that spot but since he owned the company he had the last say.
Did he also tell them before he got shot that they shouldn't try to stop the bleeding in the event that he got shot? Video from immediately after the shooting appears to show that none of them put their fingers in his neck, applied pressure, or packed the wound. Were they all incompetent?
quote:

It certainly is not impossible
From 150 yards at a 10 degree angle with a .30-06, yes it is absolutely impossible for it not to exit his neck
quote:

Has an autopsy been performed? Why no news about it?
Great question. According to Utah law, there should have been an autopsy since he was the victim of homicide. There's a lot of controversy around this because nothing has been released and there's some audio from police dispatch on the day of the shooting saying something about him not being taken for an autopsy... but I think it's possible that what happened was that the medical examiner went to the hospital to do it, and the comment was about him not being transported to the morgue.
quote:

30-06 does not always exit. MLK was shot in the face by a 30-06 and it did not exist his body. It lodged in his spine.
That is true, but the circumstances were much different. (also, note: the bullet was not lodged in MLK's spine, it actually went through the spine and was palpable under the skin just medial to his left scapula... more about this later)

In Kirk's case, the official story is that the bullet entered from the front of the left side of his neck at a trajectory that was essentially anterior-posterior. This means that the bullet would only have to traverse appoximately 5 inches of tissue to exit out the back of the neck, assuming that the bullet's trajectory took it through the thicket part of the neck. (Assuming a 16 inch circumference neck, and the neck as a circle, the diameter would be just over 5 inches). Only about an inch of that would be bone.

In MLK's case, the bullet did not have an orthogonal angle to his body. He was leaning over the railing outside of his hotel room. The bullet entered the right side of his face and traveled down his neck, through his spine, and stopped just medially to his left scapula. This means the bullet would have traversed closer to 12 inches of tissue, including several inches of bone--because the only path from the right side of his neck to the left scapula would have been through his spine. Unlike in Kirk's case, the bullet would have traveled down through multiple vertebrae due to the fact that MLK was leaning forward. The bullet would have had to contend with the spinal column's load-bearing function--the force would likely have been somewhat dissipated by compressing the connective tissue between the vertebrae, just like the spine was built to do.

So yes, it's possible to be shot with a .30-06 and not have the bullet exit. However, in Kirk's case, that is impossible. The bullet allegedly came from straight in front of him and would have only had to traverse 5 inches (maybe 6 or 7 if we're being generous) of tissue, and would have been at a more or less anterior-posterior trajectory with respect to his body and spine. This is not at all like MLK's case.

You can read about the details of MLK's wound here, in the Journal of Vascular Surgery. Photos are included An analysis of the vascular injuries and attempted resuscitation surrounding the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr
The shooter’s Facebook profile is still up (search “Tom Sanford michigan” he’s the one from Atlas, MI and has some clouds as his profile picture).

He posted a bunch of stuff that was anti-Biden, pro-Trump, and anti-mask. Also had shared some stuff from Turning Point USA, and had a quote from Reagan that was anti-socialism.
The FBI’s story is that the shooter was on a building that was directly in front of Charlie Kirk. That would make the hole in the left side of his neck an entry wound. They showed a photo of a Mauser 98 .30-06 that they found in some trees across the street from campus, and said that it’s the murder weapon. But that weapon makes no sense based on the wound and lack of any apparent exit out the back of his neck. There’s no way a 30-06 wouldn’t have gone through his neck if shot from 150 yards, which is the distance from the rooftop to where Kirk was sitting.

There’s also no evidence of Robinson carrying the rifle off the rooftop. The video doesn’t show him holding a gun. Mauser 98s don’t collapse and can’t be dismantled easily, and the video shows him running away just seconds after the shot occurred. So where’s the gun? How did it get off the rooftop and off campus? Where’s the bullet?

The thing about the text messages—he could always just say “yeah I wrote that but I didn’t mean it, I was trying to impress people” and if they can’t actually prove that the gun they have is the one that was used, they’re not going to be able to convict him. Especially if the defense can cast doubt that the shot even came from the front, and give the jury reason to think it could have come from elsewhere.

Also, can they even prove that it’s Robinson who is on the roof? Can they show that he ever had a gun up there?

Maybe they can, maybe they stopped being idiots and quit releasing all their evidence on social media. Idk. This whole thing has destroyed any confidence I had in the FBI. Shameful
