First of all it's not THE opposing argument. Everyone's free to come up with their own unique arguments. Furthermore you weren't actually given any opposing arguments because it's a shit article. As you discovered, obvious questions are not answered. The mayor gave as it's justification for the project that congestion would be reduced. However, just because you build a bike path does not guarantee anyone will actually use it. How did it determine demand? I doubt that it did.
This study is seriously flawed. The most glaring problem is the faulty premise. It assumes that undecided voters with no knowledge of the candidates will suddenly decide they care and then, as their first and only recourse, go to Google and search for something generic along the lines of 'presidential candidates.'
It's funny to see people get their panties in a twist over this. Especially since this video is pretty tame compared to what's already been done. Now watch the REAL video:
This isn't directed squarely at you, but isn't it kind of racist to make the correlation in the first place? It's interesting to note that Qui-Gon had some harsh words for Jar Jar. Was he being a "species-ist?" Star Wars contains countless different sentient species. Does political correctness demand that they all be treated as equally intelligent, capable, and upstanding citizens of the galaxy? Some things to think about...
I'm not sure what you mean by that. Are they doing what it says in the article but your teacher friend just doesn't consider it "revolutionary" or are they not actually doing what it says in the article?
Bubon was the common name for giant gerbils in the 14th century.
"You know, there's a lot of misunderstanding about rats. The rodendus vermikitis as they're called in Latin. It turns out our long tailed friend wasn't after all responsible for the dreaded bubonic plague as alleged through history. Yes, sir. It was caused by an animal called the bubon. That's right, and the threat by the way is still with us. So if anyone does see a bubon, contact your local authorities." - Cliff Clavin
Neither inflation nor deflation favors investment. Inflation does however favor borrowing whereas deflation encourages savings to finance capital investment. You don't understand how real people behave. It's a very rare oddball who keeps money under the mattress or buries it in the backyard. It's true that deflation increases the value of your money but investment does not preclude deflationary gains so why not get both?
Also Paul Krugman and Milton Friedman do not represent the entire gamut of economic thought anymore than Hilary Clinton and Mitt Romney represent the gamut of political thought. Krugman and Friedman are both apologists for the state and they both hold the same basic Keynesian assumptions about the economy.
"Only an absolute idiot -- someone who doesn't have the slightest idea of how the money works -- would argue that inflation is bad."
Don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining. Inflation favors the political class and the bankers while screwing the rest of us, especially poor people who already have a hard enough time getting by without having their purchasing power diminished.
Yeah, too bad there's no more mental asylums in existence. No, wait... What?
So much misinformation. The controversy with Reagan and mental institutions was when he was governor... of California... so it only applied to California. It's unclear how this could be connected to giving tax breaks to Wall Street. Also, it wasn't about shutting down asylums but releasing patients from the asylums. Furthermore, it wasn't Reagan's idea. Frank Lanterman submitted the bill to the legislature which then passed the bill which Reagan then signed into law.
I should want to cook Brocktoon a simple meal, but I shouldn't want to cut into him, to tear the flesh, to wear the flesh, to be born unto new worlds where his flesh becomes my key.
Lets just say that free market types are more sceptical of AGW because they fear it will be used as an excuse to hand over more power to the government. Just as a communist (I notice you capitalized communism) would be sceptical of Stalin's attrocities because it tends to discredit communism. It's not a logical fallacy. It's an emotional reaction. No one is saying they don't believe AGW because they don't like one or more of the solutions. It's called "getting defensive."
While AGW is a hard sell for some people, there are others for whom it is a easy sell. Why is that? As Hillary Clinton said, "never waste a good crisis." In other words, global warming is good for government.
The description clearly says "And as the whole unit spins, you aren't going to get dust build up (EVER)." Emphasis mine.
In other words, they're claiming zero dust build up because the unit spins. Not because of air filters. If you want to eliminate dust with the use of air filters you don't need a spinning heat sink.
"We see a humbling yet beautiful view of ourselves.'"
Once again they want me to feel humble. Quite to the contrary, that little dot is a very small part of the universe and yet it's the only place we know for sure that life exists. That makes me feel pretty special.

Not with the Republicans in charge.
First of all, yes I did. Furthermore, suck my dick.

What do you think the deflector shields are for? *sigh*
"Not a week goes by where some aspect of drone regulation fails to make the news."
Therefore this article fills a much needed gap.

Pics or it didn't happen.
They're suing Google because that's where the money is. Random bloggers don't have 100 million dollars.

Sounds like you graduated from the Sean Penn school of social interaction.

"How Do You Sell an Algorithm To Venture Capitalists?"
First of all don't use Powerpoint. And by that I mean DO use Powerpoint and say the word Powerpoint as many times as you can.

Winning an argument often takes precedence over seeking the truth. Just because your opponent is confounded does not make him wrong.
"I don't get it."
That much is obvious.

This watch does not have any features and it's a bit expensive but it's got geek cred and it looks awesome. I get comments about mine all the time.
These are originals manufactured in 1975:

Mustard gas is not a "weapon of mass destruction." It does go well with freedom fries though.
