Watch your unemployment go up Tom. Thank you for your asshole attitude. These companies just found another reason to outsource the work to third world nations.
You thought you were the object of slavery in your competitive wage job because of rules? Guess what, your fucking attitude just made you the object of the unemployed
Then your fired. Go find a job some place else.
You don't want to work by my rules, then you wont.
Get the fuck out. And by the way, there will be an officer to search all your belongings because I have had reports that you were the office theif.
The links were nothing more then to show there has been scientific research into zombies. Thats all. And that point was made in my original post.
Just because you don't like the conclusions in the links is your problem. Both my links were from universities. Different Universities. Different studies.
Isn't this/. Isn't this where citations are generally a given when someone is going to dispute a post?
But isn't Haiti where the whole Zombie theme came from? The movies that I remember always had someone performing some type of magic to make people into zombies. The zombie leader. And that second link refers to what could be a classic Romero zombie, or at least close to what we consider the movie zombies.
His key candidate for zombiehood is Clairvius Narcisse. In spring, 1962 Narcisse "died" at the Albert Schweitzer Hospital in Deschapelles, Haiti. His death was verified by the hospital staff. 18 years later Narcisse turned up alive and well, and claimed to be an escaped zombie.
We don't know if he consumed human flesh when in captivity as a zombie for 18 years or not.
But the links were just to show there is actual research into this, thats all.
lol, I need to stop. It almost looks like I am taking this seriously.
Persons identified as zombies are to be found among the inhabitants of Haiti, an impoverished and politically unstable Caribbean country with unique cultural characteristics. Using the lens of the anthropologist, an investigation into Haitian zombiism reveals not only a basis for the bizarre phenomenon of zombiism itself, but also the underlying characteristics of Haitian society that have fostered and it. While zombiism may be fundamentally understood in terms of mental illness, particular theories related to madness are useful in further illuminating the subject, including Sigmund Freud’s signature theses on melancholia, Frantz Fanon’s views on the psychological effects of colonialism, and Emily Martin’s ideas about the performance of mental disorders. The resulting analysis will demonstrate that Haitian zombiism constitutes a
cultural construct of madness that thoroughly fits within its post-colonial population, where a bereft people have transformed zombiism into a reality.
Are there really zombies in Haiti? Wade Davis devotes two long sections to this question. He first looks at the popular views and then explores cases where there have been some attempts to carefully and more scientifically determine the status of suspected cases. His key candidate for zombiehood is Clairvius Narcisse. In spring, 1962 Narcisse "died" at the Albert Schweitzer Hospital in Deschapelles, Haiti. His death was verified by the hospital staff. 18 years later Narcisse turned up alive and well, and claimed to be an escaped zombie.
No, I did not read through those articles. I just remember watching an interview with some scientist that researched out the sposid myth. So I knew therw was legitimate research into it.
Who's the troll here? You I think. The parent had a valid point to this discussion. Apple does censor what is sold. Your just a pussy fanboy that doesn't want to admit it.
Is anyone really suggesting high speed rail everywhere? The suggestions you made are the only area's that I have ever heard it mentioned.
It just doesn't make sense, and even politicians recognize that.
Now, what I have heard suggested is more routes for rail travel. When I lived near the Pocono's, there was a large number of people that traveled to New York City every day by bus for work. It was worth it for them to spend 3/4 hours on bus one way due to the lower living expenses and high wages. For them, having rail service(shorter travel time) would have been a god send. But, again. That was not high speed rail. Just new/additional rail service.
Well, I was taught early on to have everything in writing when it came to management decisions. Everything from correspondence when testing where they said just move on, its not a real problem. To decisions like what is being discussed here.
The A-Team. Hogan's Heroes. Buck Rogers. I cringe a bit when I watch them.
Lol, I bought the dvd set of the Hogan's Heroes shows. Some being in black and white. Funny, I still like them. Not sure I could watch old episodes of F Troop though. Now, Gilligan's Island. Hell yea.
I wont even go into the old cartoons I search for and love to watch. And I mean some of them being from the 40's.
My complaint was always that the cigarette tax was to high in reference to alcohol. I looked it up when the debate was going full blown with regard to the tax. There is just as much spent on alcohol health issues as there is with cigarettes. Car accidents, regular accidents, sclerosis of the liver, spousal abuse, child abuse, and I can't remember what else.
My complaint was that alcohol was an acceptable drug that costs society just as much as
cigarettes. And nobody would support it being taxed at the same rate. Which it isn't.
Truthfully, I don't care what people do. I'm not one of those x drinkers/smokers that preaches for others to quit. Don't care. Drunks are fun to watch and smoke masks the bad body oder of some people.
The California legislature has estimated that taxing the previously untaxed domestically grown $14 billion marijuana market would produce $1.4 billion a year,[4] Taxing marijuana, supporters say, could be a smart way to help alleviate pressure on the state budget.[5]
I want them to legalize this so they tax you fools. Fuck it, want to do drugs. Pay taxes on them just like the legal drugs that others are taxed on. You know, nicotine and alcohol.
A new tax source. Hell yea,go for it. What the fuck, it's the only way California will ever balance it's budget. No, I take that back. Even with a new tax base, that would give them billions, they would still fuck up their budget.
But, I totally agree. Legalize so they can cut back on other taxes and go to a complete sin tax. Do drugs, pay a sin tax. Smoke, pay a sin tax. Drink, pay a sin tax. Eat fast food, pay a sin tax. Fuck this nanny state shit. Tax the fuck out of people that want to do things that are unhealthy for them.
I no longer do drugs, drink, or smoke. But yes, I have done all of the above and for a large number of years. Hell, I paid the cigerate tax all the way up to last year. So, I know how much it costs.
Fuck, they wouldn't cut back on other taxes. Shit, I'm still fucked by the nanny state.
How long have newspapers been posting names of people being arrested? I would be surprised if we are not talking hundreds of years.
And newspapers also post pictures at times. Prior to conviction. TV stations post pictures of people being arrested all the time.
Whats the difference.
I'm not saying its right, but seriously. What is the difference. These people have already had their name listed in the news paper. So this is all public knowledge already.
My girlfriend calls them party plates. They still have them. Complete different color than normal license plates.
But the point is, these are issued on convictions. Unlike what the Florida police are doing.
I think a previous poster tagged it perfectly. Due process.
Hell, I think everyone should have their picture plastered all over the internet once they have been convicted. Especially child molesters. BUT, only after they have had their day in court and been convicted.

I don't know if this is good or not. Please let me explain.
If you have ever had the misfortune of having a relative with Alzheimer disease, you know they are nothing like the person you loved and cherished. Everything from forgetfulness, to wanderings where you search the streets for them, to the extreme mood swings where they get violent. Its a terrible experience for both you and the people that have this disease.
If you are diagnosed with this disease in advance, and there are no cures? How do you tell your family and friends? What are you going to think about the pain you know that you may be putting them in?
Knowing how my mother became with this disease, if I find out that I have it and there are no cures. I don't want to put my friends and family through the same experience. I would rather drive my car into a wall at 120 miles an hour.
Do you tell the artists to call you master when you take the product of their work without any providing any pay for said service.
Why is it so fucking hard to understand such a simple concept. You pay for someones work. NO MATTER WHAT THE PRODUCT IS. You don't like the product, YOU NEVER PURCHASE OR USE THEIR PRODUCTS AGAIN.
I HATE fucking apple. But I do not use any of their proprietary products(electronic or otherwise) for free without compensating them. The same with Microsoft, all the software I have on this machine has been paid for. And I hate fucking Microsoft as much as I hate apple. You PAY of what you use when the creator asks for payment. OR YOU DON'T FUCKING USE IT. Jesus, such a simple mother fucking concept. Why do cock suckers like you have such a hard time with that.

Never trust management, even if your part of it.
Seriously?! Your job title is Network Administrator! Administer the damn network! It's what you were hired to do!
And if management doesn't want to make the change?

Valid point though, taxation to stop bad habits is just a different way of being a nanny.
My complaint was always that the cigarette tax was to high in reference to alcohol. I looked it up when the debate was going full blown with regard to the tax.

A company makes use of someone's work and you respond by mocking the idea that people should get paid for their work.
You mean like artists SHOULD get paid for their work? Electronic or otherwise? Oh wait, this is slash dot. The land of double standards.
And newspapers also post pictures at times. Prior to conviction. TV stations post pictures of people being arrested all the time.
Whats the difference.
