Executive in a company tells a journalist that they are about to spend 1 million dollars to harass a woman who posted an article critical of them? Every single word in those quotes seems cherry picked to cause the most outrage possible. And it is not something told to them by some angry ex-employee, or anythingl No a executive goes up to a journalists and tells them this.
Which is why I included two main reasons, and I would not call those absolutely exhaustive either. ISIS, from my understanding want to reshape/create their own country; What sort of vision they have for this country is besides the point. They are a form of revolutionary government. Their goals have absolutely nothing to do with making the average American afraid, or turning the US into a totalitarian regime. So I really doubt any of them praise Allah whenever the US takes away their own citizens freedoms. None of them are like: "Yes, we have got them on the run now, brothers. Texas just legalised warrantless wire-tapping. Praise Allah! Praise Him!"
Yes, but many come back in short order. And the question is not whether it is possible to use welfare for a short period and get off of it permanently, or even if the majority use it like this, but whether a significant number of people are held back because of it. +50% of the black community could still be stuck in a cycle of poverty fuelled by the welfare system, while the majority of welfare users were not, if welfare is used by a large enough portion of the total population.
And just because people get off of it, does not mean they are not stuck in a cycle of going back to welfare every few years, rinse repeat.
I would of thought you replied to the wrong person, if you did not also quote me. What are you trying to say? That the President of the untied states is a terrorist, and his main goal is to make everyone afraid? Because you specifically seems to be saying that his goals are more profit oriented. I just do ton really know what any of this has to do with what I posted, or even groups commonly refereed to as terrorists?
I really doubt they care if we live in fear or not. Most terrorist groups just want the US to stop messing around with their country and/or change the government of their country.
That was my thought. The only way I can think of to use Wikipedia log data to predict outbreaks, would also of predicted that American was in the grip of a huge Ebola epidemic a few weeks ago. Perhaps this wiki data is just any easy way to measure media attention to a subject, which often is correlated with an epidemic? It is measuring the public's attention, not actually making a prediction.
This. It all depends. In a busy city with a great subway system public transit can be several times faster than if you owned a car, and less than 1% of the cost.
Still, they are the ones to go though. Maybe you are wrong? I find it hard to believe that 50% of the Internet was blocked as spam overnight and this is the first we are hearing of it.
If you can get fined millions of dollars for stealing a 5 cent mp3, then certainly overcharging someone in the range of ~$100 is bound to bring in Billions of dollars in damages.
It might not be a perfectly efficient practice that catches all blacks and hurts 0 whites but, it does effect a huge portion of the black community. And like the original comment said, the system is designed in such a way that getting out of the system is almost impossible, instead the natural effect is to sink lower into it.
So the rest of the details are unimportant. About a third of the black community is imprisoned in this system of repression.
Welfare goes to everybody who applies and is deemed qualifying.
There is no way that the amount of heat that puts out it worth the amount of real-estate it takes up, and forget about the liability. And I am assuming that they pay for the extra air cooling in the Summer.
Primarily, this is because our laws are based on precedent, and probably no small part that law is partly decided by random civilians. There is not a single law out there that is "interpreted" at all like anyone would interpret the written law to mean. Many of them are closer to the exact opposite than a logical interpretation of the written law.
Sounds to me, that is very much is a discrimination situation. The government is aggressively and systematically enforcing a system of apartheid against these Black Americans with their system of welfare. They do the same thing over here in Canada with the Native Americans. It is a very effective system.
Screw gaming. Make a decent OS that people will actually enjoy using more than Windows, with half decent apps not command line programs, and maybe some people might choose it for some reason other than to use it as a server or because they are just brain dead fanboys.
Then, when people are using it for web browsing, writing, and other productivity stuff, and it is becoming the defacto OS for computers at work, then the gaming devs will come.
As a consumer desktop Ubuntu/Linux in general does pretty much nothing better than Window. Yes, every few generations MS releases an absolutely abysmal product, but everyone skips those releases anyways.

That is something I have never understood, how do citizens lose basic human/citizen rights? What does it matter if someone has jaywalked, should they lose their right to free speech?
Because then you would miss marriage announcements from your friends because "I Fing Love Science" and 100 other pages you like posted a meme. For a significant number of accounts the users could not keep up if they browsed all day, they get more posts than seconds in the day, and even more people (like 99% of Facebook) get more posts than they will ever read. Just because I like Cumberpach does not mean I am interested in reading every thing his pr guy posts, and that like is not equivalent to liking my best friend.
The only possible solution is for FB to figure out how important posts are and what they are, and based on individual browsing habits and likes promote the important stuff in your feed.
But every one must understand and at all times remember that creating a theory that fits the data is a completely different thing than coming up with a theory that makes predictions than end up coming true. Until one of these alternative theories makes a prediction that is proven true, it is just a theory with no evidence going for it at all.
So he is saying that that study used such insignificant populations that significant correlations are likely due to chance? How is any of the results supposed to be worth anything if what the researcher says is true?
I am inclined to believe that they are simply wrong and it is not due to chance. From what I remember, previous studies have found that on a societal level violence goes down.
Even then, 3 months is only enough to use a Dreamweaver type program and maybe have enough knowledge to not make a complete fool of yourself (probably not).

It seemed that they have had more than long enough to either prove that they do not, or prove that they do.

Oh, so just like Indentured Slavery then?
(The prices are retail so I bet the schools can get an additional 30% off as they would probably be considered a wholesale customer.)
You have obviously never worked for a school. More like +30,000% because government.
Except in this case you absolutly cannot get a job
