Drugs, steroids and HGH chemicals are not illegal in sports merely because they give an unfair advantage. They are so because the give an unfair advantage and are proven to have detrimental side effects.
Otherwise a healthy diet, exercise and practice would be outlawed in sports as well.
One silly sarcastic straw man builder said, "We have found that players who breath have an near infinite advantage of players who do not breath. From now on players will no lonber be allowed to breath while under contract with the NSL (National Sports league)."
This points to my theory that drugs don't make people dumb, but dumb people can be easily attracted to drugs. More intelligent and self controlled people can use drugs with little to no ill effects.
This reminds me of a sign at the motor vehicle emissions testing facility. Similar to the "Shoplifters will be prosecuted" sign seen in many stores except it read "Bribing a state inspection official is a crime. Violators may be prosecuted." With the word 'may' in place of 'will'.
I figured that just meant, make sure your bribe is high enough.
You have to remember that people are stupid and the government needs to step in and take care of them. Free market doesn't work. People should have the freedom to choose what ever the government lets them. Look at health care. It sucked for so long that the government had to stop in and create Medicare Medicaide, prescription drugs benefits, etc and look how much better it's gotten.
I do believe this is more of a Jewish interpretation of the old testament and "heavens above" combined with "created in his image" I'd say it's a bit older than the Catholic Church.
You seem to be a victim of the "I want everything. NOW!" Idea that has somewhat become the norm. Just because current and developing hot topics get a lot of back and forth editing, as wikipedia moves on it will become more and more useful, complete and balanced. Editors will come and go. Hot issues and topics will fluctuate and frustrate people. Although, in the end, as articles stabilize the quality will become second to none.
yes I think you hit it. If I read the article on internal combustion engines I want to know the history , some basic theory of operation and maybe some cool pictures. I don't want to have the knowledge to take every mechanical certification test and be a master mechanic. Although I do think there should be links to that information from the article.
Would wikipedia be a great place to have perhaps a basic example of the proof but be focused on the history and the W's (who, what, when, where etc...) Then link to the wikibooks section.
balance of taxation Republics - Lower taxes to raise revenue Democrats - Raise taxes to raise revenue
healthcare Repbulicans - Allow private industry to handle it and keep the Governments corruption and bureaucracy out. Democrats - Allow Government to handle it and keep private industries corruption and greed out of it. military deployment / aggressiveness
budgetary responsibility (guess who is actually more responsible here -- might surprise you) Republicans - Borrow and spend Democrats - tax and spend
gay rights / women's reproductive rights / opinions on reality of racism, etc. Republicans - Bad / Anti choice / exists but has evolved to the point where adult white males are ok to be racist against Democrats - hump away / Pro death / we are all under the heal of the white man
role of religion in government Republicans - religion states morality and government is based on religion Democrats - morality should be legislated by government without religious influence.
criminal justice (death penalty, punishment for drug crimes, sentencing) Republicans - criminals should be hung for their crimes sometimes people are bad Democrats - criminals didn't get hugged enough there are no bad people in the world
civil rights -- privacy, speech (both are centrist, but Democrats are significantly left of republicans) Republicans - you get to do what we say you can do Democrats - you get to do what we say you can do
education -- funding and management Republicans - more funding doesn't make a better school doing more with less makes for better education Democrats - schools are bad because they don't have enough funding. Schools can buy kids an ability to learn.
"Especially when it means that the 2% of the country with 98% of the money get to have their way, all the time."
I really hate this horribly miss informed quote. it's ~30% of the people have 50% of the money. Of course it's also ~20% of the people that pay 50% of the tax load.
Did you also know that over 65% of the Forbes 1000 are new money, meaning they made their money and didn't inherit it as is often the miss conception.
What you describe sounds more like the last time I tried to get windows XP to run on my Linux system. I bought an extra Hard Drive and wanted to run XP so I could upgrade the firmware on my Magellan GPS. This was the first time I've run into something that I had to have Windows for in several years. (Boo Magellan) It tooke me 4 days of fighting with the XP install process before I found a hacked version called Windows XP Essentials, which was an XP install disk hacked by someone to be useful. Was only on long enough for me to download and update the firmware then reformatted the drive for some extra filesystem space.
When I can pop a live Linux CD into almost any computer and have it up and running in a mater of minutes, why is it so difficult to get the most popular operating system on earth to run on modern hardware?
f the same person has spent 100's of hours simulating brutally violent reactions to non-threatening stimuli, they would be more likely to understand their desire for violence and restrain the urge to hurt someone.

Sweet, I'm having my arm replaced with a minigun.

Or when they are giving them a job.
then install solar panels on your roof of your garage and use that juice to charge the car overnight.
Ohh, man that's funny...
Maybe their poor innovation is so, because it is so bad.

You're just jealous.
Whoa that must be hell on your car purchases, I just go to the filling station and recharge my gas.

Well, partially true. NT did implement the small library section of the POSIX standard, but it is not 100% POSIX compliant.

Because we all know that the price of burning a CD is all that is put into making a record.
...smash hit and even spurred the RIAA into suing the company over piracy concerns.
And we all know how difficult that is.

There corrected that for you.
