You may want to believe that is a lot,but those doing the surveillance want to get evidence they can use.if they don't get it legally, it does them little good. Funny how we demand more and more transparency of everyone else and everything else, but we must have lots to hide if we are so paranoid about this. If they monitored me and my family, they would get put to sleep. I've got nothing to hide.
These statistics are just that. They completely disregard the wood burning fires that 2 billion people in Asia make everyday to cook. That is the source of the brown haze and not in these stats.
The cheap products aren't because they are allowed to pollute. There cheap because labour and materials are cheap. If forced, they could reduce their emissions and add little to no cost to consumers. Their governments don't care. Anyway, the brown skies of India are caused by a billion people cooking over wood burning fires a couple times a day. Been there a lot. Seen it with my own eyes.
You're obviously not in India. Just got back from there myself. Never saw the sun directly in the five Weeks I was there and covered half the country. I can believe that a billion people cooking over wood burning fires everyday makes a difference. I've seen it.
Except with torrents. Enter throttling from Web servers to make sure these users don't squeeze out the slow people like me at only 30Mbs. I still have trouble finding places online that even allow my connection to run at its full potential.
I want to agree with you, but not knowing exactly what resources are available today in those cities,I would tend to bet there are many large buildings vacant, lot less cars on the road, police and firemen being laid off, and people in that city that could use a job (and will pay taxes themselves, if they have an income). I just haven't hard as many cities complain about their financial loss because a big company came into town and started paying taxes. Its more often the other way around.
You would think that some might have learned from the DotCom bubble and not go about it the very same way the Silly Valley did a decade ago. That's my two-Schillings worth.
Funny! I just returned from a month in India and a hacking cough from.the poor air quality I experienced all over the country.i'm convinced one value not brought into the global equation is the billion wood burning fires for cooking food each day. What do y you think China and India are going to do about that? The US already had strict air quality laws and is working hard to do more. Do you expect everything to change all at once? If so, why don't you pay for it?
Funny, isn't it? That a site that is supposed to be a place to discuss and share and talk about ideas (and opinions and in this case beliefs) can put those with a different view at risk of being "flame bait" simply by kindly sharing a different opinion while those that have fed this entire discussion have been rude, condescending, arrogant, bigoted, and prejudice...basically exactly what they often accuse those they are pointing at right now. They laugh at what they don't understand because it doesn't fit their worldview.
I find the general remarks in here completely rude and ignorant. Logic and science were designed to define the natural and physical, and do a great job of that. Science and logic suck at trying to explain the supernatural and therefore discard it all as nonexistent. They can't prove it doesn't exist, but it frustrates them and must therefore be belittle and mocked.
Do your history research to see how many religious people throughout history are responsible for the foundation of most science.
This is really no different than internet security. If you leave a hole, it will be exploited.
If their rules stated that small children are excluded from searching even after they go through security and then run back and hug an adult who has not gone through security, the obvious hole would be known. Don't know about you, but I can't forget the numerous stories of terrorist strapping explosives to women and sending them out to be blown up.
Travel abroad!! I can't tell you how much is sucks to be traveling in a remote place in India right now and read this article. I'm from the States and have great cable ISP at home. For the past month of traveling, I've had to rely upon my awesome Android rooted phone as a mifi with a SIM card for India. I"m lucky to get up to 30kbps, but most of the time hang around 2 or 3 (in between the long 0kbps). Why talk about how slow things are, go experience it again like me!!:) You'll be glad you did...helps you appreciate even more what we have.
When I first read, in my mind, I wanted to see a laser printer that uses conductive toner to create entire circuits on the paper itself. The image they show doesn't looking like it is saving much. It is simply a program for origami. That's there dreams? Really?
As Apple is kicking themselves that they didn't think of this first. Soon to be announce an Apple TV patent that more intuitively charges you for thinking about skipping a commercial.
I have a Asus eee slate right here.little expensive but I think it heads in the direction that will help.of course you will bash the OS, but it is still the corporate norm. This slate is an i5 core, completely wirelessand good sized keyboard, touch, includes stylus, and will run your office apps. I think is a good step in making all the right programs more portable.
I would propose that God is proven in philosophy (impossibility of infinite regression...there has to be something that started everything...everything cannot have always existed as everything is in the constant state of slow decay).
There is recent proof with some forms of bacteria that find Darwin's "out clause" to be confirmed. (Darwin stated in his own theory that if it could be proven someday that there is some irreducible complexity of an organism, that his theory would fall apart. That has been found.)
There is the problem of the first cell being created. With recent understanding of the cell (which Darwin didn't have), we can see the complexity of a cell and all that is required for the first single cell to reproduce--most critical part being DNA, which is a complex programming code far better than anything we have today. Impossible for anyone to explain how a cell could have come together randomly and then divided itself the way all living cells do today.
When you take what we know today, the reason stands that there is something that has brought everything into existence with intelligence. You must now deny the evidence that there is God by providing it. There is proof that there is intelligent design behind everything.
Question for you (as you seem to have better perspective than many on this site)... Do you think the current push to make us a technology leader in every industry could have this affect across more and more of our population in the years ahead?
There is no doubt that the globalized world we are now in will keep a downward pressure on job income levels. I'm wondering if the whole "leading the world in technology", in your perspective, could cause a larger portion of our population to get to this point by their 50's. If so, the whole concept of the US being the global leader in technology could benefit us in the short run but could bite us in the ass in the long run.
My financial manager keeps saying, "stay diversified." Shouldn't we as a country and perhaps even individuals, too?
What would your advice be to the President or to a young kids getting into the field you are in today?

Like you said. You've never been to India. A billion people just there. A wood costs nothing because they cut it down.

That blows...
Now that is a creative twist...crowd source to get enough money to pay lawyers.not sure if that sis well in my stomach.

Sorry for the pain. Thanks for answering.
Sounds like the glass is half full to me.
Move over. Make space for me. I want to watch, too. This ought to be good.
