With all the chicks flying in space nowadays, some of them prettydecentlooking, it's nice to know there is one more semi-private place where the Zero G club can initiate new members. Just gotta watch out for the floating gobs of spooge.
You're talking about traffic laws here. As long as they don't run from the cops or wreck, they're not facing any jail time.
Actually, in my state, you can be dinged for "Felony Speeding" if you exceed the speed limit by more than 20 mph. I think the penalty can be up to 2 years behind bars, and a felony criminal record, which is not a trivial thing.
They don't use it for the soccer moms who get caught going 21 over in their minivans. They use it for 150-mph scofflaws like this guy, or for hard core repeat offenders.
You seem to know what you are talking about, so I pose you the question: can't a quantum computer generate extraordinarily large keys even faster than it can break them? This has been the pattern with computer equipment up until now.
"Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." --Benjamin Franklin (disputed, possibly Richard Jackson)
Americans used to have the liberty to buy machine guns, and carry pistols wherever they liked, with no hindrance from any governmental law or agent. Can we have that liberty back too? I'm growing disenchanted with the meager return of "safety" we got for that particular investment.
You need to be a bit more clear about who it is that wants to slice your throat open and who it is that wants to stop them.
Hear, hear. I think it was Maggie Thatcher who said the average Guardian reader can't perceive the difference between an arsonist and a fireman. The same is true of the hard Left over here.
You damn right we've been hostile to the Muslims through history, and with good reason. Wherever the borders of Islam touch other civilizations, there is bloodshed and misery. They invaded, enslaved, raped and slaughtered all their neighbors in those days, and they're doing the same thing now.
The Crusades were in response to a brutal Muslim invasion, and totally justified. Too bad they failed to drive the Mahometans back to Arabia. The world would be a much happier place today if the Crusaders had been victorious.
From next year 70% of the paper must consist of 'low demand' questions in the form of multiple choice or similar answers.
I assure you that multiple choice is not the same thing as "low demand". Multiple choice questions, when well designed, can be fiendishly difficult tests of whatever abstract concept you wish to examine. The national medical board exams, for one thing, are multiple choice.
Executing recidivist criminals improves society more than any other thing I can think of.
And yes, I would give the death penalty to anyone who intentionally blinds someone else, if it were part of a pattern of severely anti-social behavior. I think three felonies of any kind is enough for anyone. Commit a fourth, even if it's shoplifting, and you ought to be hanged in public.
I am sick of sharing my universe with violent criminal filth, and sick of paying taxes to support them. I want most of them dead. I wish we executed fifty times as many criminals as we already do.
It seems faintly dangerous to treat a female co-worker even one iota different from a male co-worker.
Actually, you have to treat the devious wenches as lawsuit bait from the moment they set foot in your department. You never socialize with them after work, you never touch them or even look at them for longer than absolutely necessary, you never be alone with one in a room with a closed door. You NEVER NEVER NEVER go with a woman on a business trip unless you're on separate flights and stay in separate hotels, and even then you're taking a chance that she's not a lying thieving gold digger. It's best never even to speak to them unless required to do so by your job description.
Any guy who doesn't follow this advice is begging to be raped by the matriarchy and their filthy trial-lawyer myrmidons.
They broke the window, dragged her out through it and beat her severely. She was charged and convicted of resisting arrest. The judge did not agree with the situation, tore into the police, but, in the end, said he had no choice under the law to not sentence her.
Either you're making this up, or there is more to the story. Cite sources when you say stuff like this.
Number one, the "goddam piece of paper" quote is a fabrication. Bush never said that, but there hasn't been an article on Slashdot (or Digg, or Kos, or you name it) in the past month that hasn't it included it. It is now a mere talisman of bien-pensant liberal groupthink.
Number two, until the Left starts taking the Second Amendment, Ninth Amendment, and Tenth Amendment seriously, I'm not going to take their pious declarations of uniquely tender love for the Bill of Rights seriously.
The female is all but non-existent in Tolkien's world.
Yes, just a few the happy hobbitesses and elf-maidens cooking and dancing in the background...
Except when they are rescuing Frodo from the Ringwraiths (Arwen) or killing their leader, the Witch-King of Angmar (Eowyn.) I think that is something more than "non-existent".
If I'm not reading aloud, I often go too quickly and miss the details and hidden corners of Tolkien's sentences that, while they don't necessarily advance the plot, are integral to his books as works of art.
I have to agree. I read 'The Hobbit' and LOTR out loud to my kids over the course of about two years. I had read the series twice before, but reading them out loud brought a whole new dimension to the story.
While not a writer of fiction, Winston Churchill produced some of the best works I've ever read. His "Memoirs of the Second World War" was a great read.
He made a point of not using a Latin word when one of French derivation would do, and not using French words when a good short Anglo-Saxon word fit the bill.
