Patently untrue. Lawsuits for ignoring salient factors in treatment are far more to be avoided.

Our daughter in her second year of residency says it is stringently taught and practiced to give special consideration to blacks and women, who tend toward the hysterical. Doctors are held to that standard because there is a tendency to believe the person is overreacting, which may not be the case.

I haven’t asked her if excitable Italians or stoic Brits or overanalytical Danes get any special treatment.
I paint with a broad brush and you condemn with a roller.

According to google, it’s true:

The medical community has known for a long time that medicines affect ethic groups differently, but they can't say it out loud and they would be open to lawsuits if they administered care with the consideration for a different standard or techniques for anyone other than a prototypical Caucasian male patient.

I have no idea what you’re talking about
Does it help if inserted into definition #4 is the italicized word slang at the beginning?


Sorry for hijacking your thread, Jaybird. 
Don't mention it.

The design goal of the twist is to provide the pilot aileron feedback in the yoke, a little more stall margin and additional roll stability at the overall cost of aerodynamic efficiency in flight.


However, this definition...is it what makes an airplane spin?

"...one wing is stalled more than the other."


Is there such a thing as a wing being partially or not fully stalled? I'm thinking...no. It's either stalled (broken boundary layer) or it's intact.
Educate me.


Caveat: a design could have a wing designed with washout (twist) so that one portion along its span stalls before another portion.

  Kind of like “flammable” and “inflammable” mean the exact same thing. 
Did we see the same show recently talking about this? I don't recall the show ATM, sleep deprivation.

Had a friend who not long ago moved west, sold his well-equipped retractable Skylane and last we talked was looking for a Turbo model.

I object to the phrase “sucked out of the car”. 
What is the basis of the objection? This isn’t a Freudian car. Maybe Bernoullian, in which the fly is “blown” out of the car, again making it a Freudian car.


Flies and legs: yes they’re retracts. ;D

insuffient information

what car
which window
environmental conditions (e.g., wind, temperature, precip)
The car and window were provided. Everyone knows that everything in aviation happens in standard day environmental conditions  ;D

It exits and promptly splatters on the following cars windshield.
OBJECTION!
Assumed facts not in evidence (original scenario). ;D

When the G3 had just come out, I got in touch with the local Cirrus rep and we went for a flight with my whole family, which at the time was just my wife and daughter. That SR22 comfortably made quick work of our proposed mission. I'd imagine Cirrus would let you test-fly one with your wife.

A man driving his car on the highway at 60MPH notices the fly buzzing around the car. He hits the passenger window button at exactly the right time and the fly is sucked out of the car.


Assuming it's wings aren't sheared off, what becomes of the fly?
Is it:
A: Able to convert the forward movement into excess thrust and execute a zoom climb? Or
B: Does it meet a wall of air resistance and falls on the ground at nearly the same place where it was ejected from the car? Or
C: It runs on a treadmill until it's legs are tired?
