Re:two for T
Anyhow, would you force this person to use a mens room? http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-... http://www4.pictures.zimbio.co...
Yes. Does she have a dick? Because then double yes.
No - she's had the complete changeover She has no tallywhacker.
Putting that aside, they could walk into a ladies room and no one would care unless they told them, but they've had enough work that it wouldn't cause a problem because they're not obviously men jammed into a dress. That's not, however, even close to the norm and you know it. If that was the average man who is trying to look like a woman, then I doubt anyone would care. That's not the case. You don't make the law for the ones who manage to get reconstructed into reasonable looking facsimiles of females.
But dear sir, I'm not making the argument, the people who are moritifed and believe that men are suddenly going to go harass women in bathrooms and then claim they identify as women is what they and probably you are so fearful of.
And as for getting beat up in bathrooms, and your horror, just imagine what gays and transgenders go through. I doubt they'd have much sympathy for the stramen of the fearful.
MOck might be killed for going into a men's room, and you brush it off like so what? Welcome to not only being consumed by fear, but pray thet you never have a gay child of grandchild who is subjected to the special treat the fearful might perform on him or her.

Re:two for T
Because it never happens?
If you have a dick, use the men's toilet.
I thought Libs were all for science. Where is the science in pretending a dude, with a dick and male chromosomes, is a woman?
Not quite certain what your point is, Your supposed liberal result of allowing transgenders in womens room is a pervy male, who identifies as male, Not a transgender.
Pervy males have done this kind of pervy stuff for years and years.

Here's a good one - a man hiding in a septic tank so he could watch women do their thing. Jeebuz! http://kfor.com/2013/07/08/man...
Point is you are using the conept of people only going into restrooms to have sex. Stop that! A transgender woman is almost certainly just going into the restroom, and just using it. And if she is going into the bathroom to look to have sex - what of lesbians? They are probably more interested in the other people's lady parts.
And if you check out the dates, these perv guys were dressing as women to work their pervy magic a while back, before even supreme court rulings on gay marriage or gender equity. Anyhow, would you force this person to use a mens room? http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-... http://www4.pictures.zimbio.co...
And she's probably going to just do her business and leave. If she wanted to engage in sexy time in a bathroom (yuk) she'd probably go in the men's room.
psst - I think she likes guys.

Re:"First Ever Conjoined Satellite Launch" ?
Um
... so then what was STEREO? (launched in 2006)There are pictures of them stacked together
It was even launched from a Boeing Delta II, so they can't claim it was their first conjoined launch. (which caused major launch delays
... due to the Boeing strike, then the batteries in the second stage being de-certified ... then once the strike was over, the Air Force kept cutting in line for launch pads)Disclaimer : I work for the Solar Data Analysis Center. which operates the STEREO Science Center.

Re:How bad was...
How bad was his first day of work at the tech-support line?
I think the worst moment must have been when they explained to him that due to a translation error he had misunderstood the job title. The job wasn't to be a "bastard operator from hell," but to be a "poor bastard operator in hell." Nooooooooo!!
On the plus side he does have Anna Chapman teasing him about marriage on Twitter, and probably has as many vodka rage fueled tech support requests as a man could ever want.

I dunno I found it somewhat interesting. Looking at some pictures of his new wife shows her to be rather plain looking and frequently struggling with her weight.
What the hell are you talking about? She's cute and she's fit, even if you consider her plain.
Top female super models and celebrities are also plain looking without make up on and without photoshop. And most of them are also struggling with their weight, whether it's the fact that they weight too much, or not enough (and are in denial about it).

flamebait on slashdot? OK!
Globalism is failing because of a lack of minimum wage. Rich Republican cock suckers don't give a shit about one countries economy. All it means is wages drop in yet another country and the value of their investments in the global stock market go up. You dumb ass wrong wing radio listening morons can keep regurgitating bullshit from your born again bigot spin doctors or join the fight. Either watch the lying bastards suck down fat paychecks while leading you into the land of indentured servitude while the rest of us "liberals" fight from the land of reality or get a fucking clue. Vote for Perry. He knows how to hand the keys to corporations in other countries while the people that live in his state fall further into abject poverty. Globalism is going to happen whether we like it or not. The way we don't want it to happen, without something to level the playing field ie. minimum wages and expectations, is the way it is happening. Controlling how it happens is up to us people that work for a living, aka "liberals".

Re:Rather symbolic isn't it?
The simple truth is that people who want to criticize Wikileaks will find justification to do so. The (ostensible) truth is that Assange has not released "everything"; otherwise he wouldn't have a doomsday file. That means that there HAS been some selection, thus there is clearly bias of some kind.
However, under this story I have seen Assange damned both for bias and for not having enough bias, so why even bother to defend him on this basis? You must go another direction, and argue that there is always bias, it is fucking impossible to avoid, and the best situation is when you simply know what it is, which enables you to make an informed reading on a piece of data.
Assange has shown himself to be anti-authority through his actions, and let me say, thank goodness. We need less big authority running around telling people what to do. Government's role should not be to force but to enable. That means making it possible for people to make informed decisions. Unfortunately, the government actively works in the other direction, routinely using government secrecy to hide wrongdoing of the actual constituents, the corporations. Look at the situation regarding milk labeling and rBGH, which has been outright proven to produce inferior product which is substantially, measurably different from milk not produced using the hormones. Yet the FDA continues to be its champion in spite of diehard evidence that it is harmful! Government actively works to hide evidence of wrongdoing that citizens have the right to know about, and it is only through eternal vigilance by people like Julian Assange that we are even able to find out about it at all.

Re:Any objections?
What's so "medieval" about having something to back up your currency? When you go to the bank and get a loan, don't you have to back that up with some kind of asset? Why should the government be any different? What is it about the government that gives them the right to loan money at an exorbitant amount? Right now it's like giving one of your kids a credit card and next year you give it to your next child without making the first one pay for what they did with it. We need to put Congress on an allowance. By having backing assets to currency, we don't need the Federal Reserve.
The IRS could quite easily be abolished for one of several taxation methods that would be in more direct control by Congressional law. If there was a blanket tax rate, a simple Act (hopefully not like the above) could be voted upon to raise and/or lower the rate and if the citizens didn't like it they simply vote out their representative. There's really no need to tax everyone at 33% and give out refunds the next year through some convoluted tax laws. If we place our Congress on a budget then they have to decide what's the most important issue to resolve on a year to year basis and they'll have to plan ahead if they want to raise money for some reason.
I will agree that it might not be the best thing to do over night. There would have to be a very long transition at this point

Re:Cut costs, sure.

I'll give you my own anecdotal experience for what it's worth. My father started at a Thiokol (when it was Thiokol) and worked for various contractors as well as NASA. He was involved in the Apollo program from it's inception.
I started out Junior High School in Pennsylvania, and essentially commuted (every nine months or so) from Manned Spaceflight Center to Cape Canaveral to the Johnson Space Flight Center (the MSC renamed for it's principal benefactor) to Cape Kennedy (the original named for it's principal benefactor and back again. The government paid for dual facilities, essentially paid for dual school systems, paid our moving costs and a bunch load of other things essentially so other congresscritters could get a piece of the pie.
And I'm even purposefully forgetting a four month stay in the swamps outside of Huntsville....
If you read TFA, that's really what Musk is saying. Everybody is outsourced seven ways from Sunday. That leads to delays and expenses that really don't help you engineering wise. It's all a political decision. And we know how well those work....
Even Yo-Yo Dyne^HBoeing, who had the lead engineering contract for Apollo and whose managers bitched and moaned about the geographic and political separation (it seemed mostly in our back yard) forgot about all of that with the 787 and outsourced it to pretty much every ZIP code on the planet leading to years of delay. -

I'm sure she'll run the government like a business which worked so well for our last president Bush when responding to natural disasters and the like. (Yes, I am being sarcastic).

Similarly, using old style headphones in a noisy place is fine if they are closed cup. Open cup you'll get the background noise.

Re:XCP on steroids!
Sony and Nintendo aren't the only ones who have botched their firmware update processes.
http://news.cnet.com/8301-13860_3-10368709-56.html
While Microsoft/Danger has not made any statements regarding the root cause that took out all sidekick users in North America last week, it is curious that it happened right as word was circulating that the LX 2009 model was do for an OTA update.... hmmm thats interesting.
http://www.phonesreview.co.uk/2009/10/02/firmware-update-for-buggy-sidekick-lx-2009-on-its-way/
It's now been almost a week since the outage started and there are still thousands of LX 2009 owners that have missing email, phonebooks, and notes. T-Mobile sent out an urgent message to users last weekend warning sidekick owners NOT to hardware reset their phones. What many Sidekick owners I know experienced was their phones were reset remotely by either Microsoft/Danger or T-Mobile Friday morning when the outage began. Adding insult to injury, one friend noted that her Sidekick has been hardware reset remotely now no less than 10 times since the outage began. Additionally, while her network service has been restored, the phone is behaving worse than it ever had before the outage.
While I am no expert on how the Sidekick works I can make some observations based on comments my friend and other have made about their experiences last weekend:
1. The LX 2009 appears to silently store phonebook and other user generated information, and preferences in volatile RAM, rather than the Sim card or Flash. This appears to be a default configuration.
2. While both T-Mobile reps and glossy into claims the SideKick stores personal info either on Microsoft/Danger's servers and/or on the user's SIM card, my friend was unable to find any preference settings on the phone relating to this feature.3. Maybe this is a sign that cloud services are a bad idea for storing mission critical information. For many people their address/phonebook ARE mission critical.
4. Microsoft/Danger and T-Mobile may be due for a massive class action here. The sad thing is that my friend has been very happy with T-Mobile's service for years. From what she tells me the failure of the sidekick LX 2009s in North America rests squarely on Microsoft/Danger's shoulders.5. Back in May there were strong indications that Microsoft gutted the Sidekick development team shortly after the LX 2009 was shipped... http://www.zimbio.com/Sidekick+3+Ringtones/articles/171/Microsoft+Lays+Off+Danger+Employees
Could it be that Microsoft has backstabbed Sidekick owners to finish killing off the platform? By cutting internal support for critical Danger services it could easily be written off as a terrible mistake. Microsoft would clearly have good reason to take a plausibly deniable swipe at T-Mobile for forcing them to make the last Sidekick.... Other possible causes might include disgruntled ex-employee sabotage of the Danger back-end...How does a mission critical server, owned by the largest software company in the world get taken out so completely that it takes 5 full days to bring it back up? I could see this being an accident for a small startup with weak IT processes, but at Microsoft? Something doesn't add up.
Back to Sony for a moment:
It seems unlikely that Sony intended to brick PS3's with this update, but on the other hand all of the console makers tend to treat their customers like indentured licensees... so outcomes like this are sure to occur more often until some serious lawyering and lawmaking gets invoked.
My hunch is that these issues are going to get a lot worse before they get better.

Re:military
There is no such thing as a military which has the ability to protect everyone on a block except Steve Jones who refuses to pay - it either protects the block or it does not.
The last tyme I can recall the US was invaded was the Battle of New Orleans. When I was in the Army I was stationed in one of the units that fought in the battle, the song The Battle of New Orleans" written by Johnny Horton was about my unit. Yes the territory of Hawai'i was attacked, the Roosevelt admin allowed it, however it was not invaded by Japan but by the US.
I don't see anything unconstitutional about bailing out banks
What part of the Constitution of the USA gives the federal government the power to bailout banks? You can't because it doesn't and the Constitution set limits on what government can do, if something's not in the Constitution the federal government can not do it. Heck the 10th Amendment - Powers of the States and Peoples, spells that out "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
One of the Founding Fathers even warned against banks, Thomas Jefferson, he said "that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies."
How, exactly, is it outside of the government's power to provide loans to banks so that they don't collapse and destroy the economy?
See above. The Constitution only created a government of limited power. And where's the prove the economy would have collapsed if the banks had not been bailed out? Never mind, you'll just say some economists said it and I'll reply others said otherwise.
These bailouts are not free cash handouts, despite what the media wants you to think.
They weren't? So a bunch of bank executives who created the problem for the banks didn't end up with millions of dollars? And banks who were well run and didn't need bailouts weren't penalized?

Re:Reality check people
Actually, I get quite a bit of my news from outside the US. Al Jazeera does a good deal of reporting in the area and they have a pretty neutral tone. The BBC is reporting pretty much the same as I have claimed and most of the other foreign press that have English sites that I have seen do the same.
Anyways, if you think Palestine is getting their message out, I would argue that they have been for a while. It's probably why your sitting there trashing Israel's version right now. Well, not really trashing but raising the point of suspicion. If you follow the plot so far, Israel backed out of Gaza completely pursuant to a cease fire agreement brokered by the Egyptian government. It ended in December around the 19th or so. In october, Hamas start launching mortars and rockets into Israel at a slow pace and Israel attempted to get the elected Palistinian authority to make it stop pursuant to the agreement. This appeared as if it worked then stopped working then worked then stopped again. For a Christmas present, Hamas launched some 30 rockets into Israel which Israel finally responded to taking out a mortar team, killing one and injuring two others. Hamas stepped up it's attacks and Israel went full blown into what we are seeing now. Hamas has closed a checkpoint along the Egyptian border which was has loads of medical aid. Egypt has offered to take critical patients and offered to set up refugee camps for the innocents at the border. Hamas has stopped the aid from getting in and stopped the injured from getting out. They have even stopped the innocent civilians from moving to the borders by firing on their own civilians who were fleeing to it. A representative from Hamas attempted to portray it as an unjustified response because there is an election coming in Israel in February 2009. Hamas Claimed it was being attacked so the politicians could manipulate the elections. A reporter asked about this bit of news floating around and the interview ended. I can't find the actually link to the report I originally read.

Nicole R. Nason's backgound

f +Transportation.Ms. Nason's career path: Law Student, Lawyer for Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, counsel and communications director for Intelligence Committee Chairman Porter Goss of Florida, counsel for the House Judiciary Committee under Chairman Henry Hyde of Illinois, Assistant Commissioner of the Office of Congressional Affairs w/ the U.S. Customs Service, Assistant Secretary for Governmental Affairs at the NHTSA, and finally Administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Between serving as counsel for an insurance company as well as a couple of congressmen and their committees (one who was en route to the Directorship of the CIA), performing as an Assistant Commissioner and Assistant Secretary (Assistant is a *always* a worrisome prefix to a job title, right up there w/ 'vice-') and finally securing a political appointment as head honcho of the NHTSA, I'd say that we're talking about one helluva career bureaucrat who can cover an ass the size Montana before breakfast.
