Any "university" or "college" that can't tolerate non-PC opinions isn't a college at all. Instead, it's an indoctrination center. Which, apparently, is fine with you, as you support the goals of the indoctrination.
Some dude on Youtube claims that IE10 passes with a score of 100 - I'd rather see a review from a reputable source. The video shows him RELOADING a page with the score of 100 - that's not exactly the way to run the test. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgVD7fdyR4o
That pretty much works, but it should be noted that not only is the target moving, but the target's launch platform is moving, the shooter is moving, and the shot is moving. All of that movement in spacetime gets pretty complicated.
Maybe we can use jet fighter pilots and their cannon as examples?;)
Neoconservatives aren't exactly "holdovers from the Bush administration". They predated Bush. They helped to put Bush in power. And, they are still around, looking for the next Bush.
As with so many other dangerous groups, like neonazis, the neocons are still lurking in the shadows, waiting for another opportunity.
I agree that the GOP wouldn't stand for copyright reform.
But, you seem to imply, or beleive, that the other party would? Do some googling to see where Obama and his party stand with NPP, and ACTA, and other obominations that the corporations would have us call "treaties".
Yes, I also posted - and I repeat - BOTH parties have sold out to corporate interests, otherwise known as "rights holders".
Errrr - would you believe that you actually confused my limited understanding of spacetime?
I don't think that light is being aimed into the future. Rather, it's at least as accurate to say, "light was aimed at the place that we would be in the future - which is now."
Light that we are recieving today was not "aimed at us", but it was aimed at the point in space that we now occupy.
Or, we could also say that we travel a path that was illuminated by that galaxy a billion years ago, with the light arriving now.
Microsoft makes body armor now? Are they just small inserts like most motor sports body armor, of does it cover more of you? Is it Kevlar, ceramic, carbon fiber, or what? Maybe some of that memory foam that gets stronger than steel upon compression? I may be interested in some, if it's priced lower than Microsoft's stupid operating systems.
Dude, Microsoft gives system access to anything that asks for it. Sometimes, it pauses to ask the guy at the keyboard if he WANTS to give system access to 'allyourfilebelongtous.exe', but the boob at the board invariably clicks "yes".
Mittens is in bed with neoconservatives. That should tell you plenty about him. Add in the facts that he's Mormon, and that he didn't castigate the other Christian whackos spouting nonsense about "legitimate rape", that should turn anyone's stomach.
Meanwhile, at least one of his "business ventures" involved actively exporting American business overseas, mostly to China.
As regards globalization and the redistribution of American wealth, Obama is mostly a sucker, and a chump. Mittens, on the other hand, is an active player, pushing hard to enrich all the rest of the world at America's and Europe's expense.
Alternate timelines? There's no need for that. Just look at the facts, and don't believe the hype fed to us 24/7 on the Mass Propaganda Channels.
I sat in a bar in Haifa, Israel, one evening. On one side of me, was a professor from Florida, who wanted to philosophize. On the other side of me, was a Mexican who grew up on the streets of Chicago, who was also in a philosophical mood.
The two talked philosophy for quite some time, each unable to understand the other. I just sat and listened, laughing at both. Oh, I'd insert a comment here and there, that I thought might be enlightening, but mostly I just listened. The two of them just didn't have any language in common.
Finally, Carlos reached across the table, punched the doctor in the nose, the doctor tumbled over his chair, and landed on his ass.
The doctor looked up at Carlos, looked at me, looked back at Carlos, and said "Oh, I see your point."
Real life trumps academics, especially in politics.
In this case, all-out war would be "killing each other off". As in any war of attrition, one side will last longer than the other. Whichever side lasts longer, "wins". It's that simple, really. Winner takes all, meaning, "all of everything that is left to take".
If you need further explanation, you'll have to find your local bar and start arguing philosophy.
"Good guys" in the post I answered to seemed to refer to either the Zionists, or to Hamas, or both. To me, it didn't seem to refer to individual people.
There are no good guys, on the political front, any more than we have any good guys in our own political system
As INDIVIDUALS, I've met a number of Israelis that I liked, and respected. I've met fewer Palestinians that I liked, as a result of having met fewer Palestinians than I have met Israelis.
Let's move north a little. I've met a LOT of Lebanese that I like, including one that I attended school with. But, the parties that determine what happens in Lebanon? They are all dipshits. Most of them have less loyalty to the PEOPLE of Lebanon, than Hamas has to the Palestinians.
So, if you follow my reasoning, maybe you can agree, or at least understand: There are no "good guys" to join in the Mideast. No matter which side prevails, a lot of good people - good individuals - are going to be fucked over, and fucked royally.
IMO, the really evil bastards in the region, are those in Tehran. Of course, the United States gave those evil bastards their power, indirectly, as a result of Operation Ajax.
Installing a spineless puppet dictator may have seemed like a good idea in the 1950's, but the eventual reaction to the puppet is an abomination.
I doubt very much that anyone can offer you such a link. All the evidence is anecdotal, or scriptural. Except in those cases where a modern day prophet converses directly with God.
Empirical evidence shows that almost all boys are interested in girls, and are titillated by viewing girls in varying states of dress and undress. That's about as far as "science" goes in this matter.
Absolutely WRONG. Had the allies not fought against the axis, the ultimate number of fatalities would have been much higher than the actual death tolls in World War Two.
Perhaps you are unfamiliar with such atrocities as the rape of Nanking. Without the allies, that rape would have continued indefinitely, and might very well be continuing today, all across Asia and the Pacific, and into the Americas. The Japanese may well have met the Germans at the Mississippi River, and stopped there - or they may have gone at each other's throats when they met.
"Yes. You've been their and spoken to people - on both sides."
Yes, I have. You are being sarcastic, of course. You assume that I've never seen any of the mid-east. You assume that I get all my information from one or another biased big-media news source. But, I HAVE been over there. Beruit City was the most exciting and/or dangerous place that I have ever seen, with multiple armies and armed groups maneuvering in the countryside, as well as in the city. I was there before the Marines arrived to safeguard the remainder of the civilians.
Not to mention, they have some awesome gun systems that will intercept targets as small as a 50 mm mortar round. I was given a link to a video of that thing in action, but I've lost it since then. It's sort of comparable to the US Navy's close in defense guns, but much more sensitive, and very very accurate.
My solution is pretty simple. Tell me how wrong it is:
Everyone in the frigging world just shuts up, sits down, and watches. Let the two antagonists go at each other. We don't supply arms, we don't supply medical supplies, we don't supply intelligence, we don't supply ANYTHING. We all just shut the fuck up, and watch.
Winner takes all. Or, the winner dictates terms to the loser, which would probably be the same thing.
Massive casualties? Sure - but the massive casualties will total less than another century or two of intermittent warfare. Let them get the business of establishing ownership over with now!
Maybe illegal - but a lot of crazy shit becomes legal in a warzone.
Odd though, that Hamas suddenly has a lot of longer-ranged missiles, after those flotillas were allowed through.
If I were an Israeli naval officer, those flotillas would have been sunk, and no survivors picked up. Israelis are pretty soft hearted sometiems, like when world opinion is against them.
I say, "Screw world opinion, we've got a war going on here!"
I can imagine that retards just might think it's a good idea to lob a few rockets.
The thing is, the Palestinians have shit for weaponry. They know that Israel has the best of weaponry. The Palestinians can't reach, let alone hit, many of the "best" targets in Israel, but they know that Israel can reach ALL of Gaze, easily and accurately.
The Pals gained a lot of worldwide sympathy with those moronic flotillas. And, here they squander much of that sympathy by attacking Israel in some hopeless gamble.
Once again, I say the world just butts out of the whole mess, and allow the two sides to kill each other off. Winner takes all.
I wouldn't mind joining the "good guys". Unfortunately, there aren't any "good guys" over there. The smart ones have moved on, to places such as Canada, or the United States, and have made lives for themselves. The good ones are dead. (only the good die young) All that's left on either side are the dumb evil bastards.
We seldom see two cops in the same car here in the states. And, as GP states, you can and will see the cops dicking around on the computer while they drive.
"Sold out" means the same thing in any time or place:
More people want them, than are available. In a "free market", that scarcity drives prices up. Apple intentionally creates that kind of scarcity, and it's possible that the same trick has been pulled here.
Didn't he try to sleep with a cousin, and didn't she die under suspicious circumstances?
"Bad words" I'm less sure of. I don't speak German, and translators tend to sanitize speeches and stuff when translating to English. If they didn't censor out the potty words, we might learn some new ways of telling people to go get fucked, or worse.

How does IE10 do with the acid tests? Never mind - I'll look for myself . . . .
This link seems to be a little dated, with FF3 and IE8:

The guy coming at you in the other lane gets blinded by your high beams.

Get off the grass, Junior. When we were kids, the only porn available were stained copies of Playboy and Penthouse.
