as a ward of the state. This is classified as idle, and it's easy to laugh at the absurdity of it. But seriously, the parent is facing child endangerment charges, as well as posession of a destructive device. That means likely serious jail time, and even more likely that the child will be taken into foster care, and almost certainly be treated very badly. Furthermore, he will grow up having had his life ruined by the law. Something relatively harmless becomes a series of good reasons to actually deploy destructive devices or turn to crime.
seems like the monty hall problem, we start off with four possibilities:
girl-girl
girl-boy
boy-girl
boy-boy
then we are given that girl-girl is incorrect since one child is a boy
this leaves:
girl boy
boy girl
boy boy
2 of those solutions have a girl, so the odds of a girl child are 2/3
Why did I get modded troll? The parent said there was no word for an extreme left wing fascist, I suggested "pinko". Maybe you don't like the word but that is generally how it's used.
There is debate in the literature about the brain thing, research by Whedon et al. suggests brains may not be particularly important in zombie dietary considerations.
Unfortunately, "they" will never listen, because "they" are the ones plotting the zombie apocalypse. The bilderberger, reptilian, illuminati, freemason, shadowpeople have clearly infiltrated every level of government. Obama has already been confirmed to be a reptilian: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Xv4HDDe9q0
I hope it is obvious why he couldn't produce a convincing birth certificate: he is from zeta reticuli. Beware, nibiru approaches and the government will not help!
Back when I was in elementary school we wrote cuneiform on clay tablets. Gilgamesh was always checked out, although there was a lot of debate as to whether it was suitable for a school to have.
Sorry, but it is explicitly stated that the prints themselves are not stored. Not sure exactly how this works but presumably it measures a few parameters and makes a hash out of that.
Why does everyone pick on aspartame, it's just a couple aminoacids that happen to be neurotransmitters reacted with methanol... what could possibly be unhealthy about that?
well for starters, say you have sattelite photos of what the oil slick looks like, for the past several weeks. Back in the dark ages of slipsticks and vacuum tubes you would have a couple of really smart people to to a chalk board, draw lines tracing the photos, and try to think where is this shit going to hit land worst, what are the bird/fish/etc populations, how do we minimize damage. Now, together with NOAA and USGS you can do a CFD simulation, try to get much better estimates, allocate resources better for the cleanup. You are still fucked in the ass, but it might not bleed so bad.
no offense but I consider spiegel.de about as trustworthy as fox news, just the other end of the spectrum, if you ever want a seriously critical (sometimes overly so) look at german media go to medienkritik.typepad.com
The definition of some words as "bad" and others as "good" is more or less arbitrary and generally classist. For example the expletive in question, shit, derives from old english (http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=shit). Oddly enough the polite words such as feces seem to derive from latin. The vulgar word (in the literal sense, meaning of the common people) became considered impolite, as it sucks to be a common peasant. Now hundreds of years later in a society that prides itself on not having nobility, and helped the french decapitate most of theirs, we still cling to the idea that vulgar words are bad, and latin and greek ones are better, to the point that we allow the FCC to regulate speech and the press on the flimsy excuse that the airwaves they regulate are a scarce resource. Don't you just hate people sometimes?
The DMCA is a US law... contrary to popular belief ireland is not a state of the US. I suspect the ISP is just doing this on their own under the "we can deny service to anyone without reason" principle. Fortunately I wouldn't be affected, as I only pirate pr0n.
Actually the AC has a point. As for "the majority of americans live on the east coast" That's great, then let NY and NJ and MD worry about it. Why should the good residents of "the flyover states" as you so politely call us pay for your rail system. If it's so economically viable, build it (actually, come to think of it, there is one on the east coast, so just update it). As for roads and highways, it's dirt cheap to build roads compared to laying high speed rail, and they are scalable later, just add more lanes, also they don't need stations everywhere you might want to go, just a small off ramp, and not everyone has to stop there for it to be useful. The jimmy carter quote is cute, every time he comes up it strikes me how true it was that obama is just carter II, the economy, the knee jerk extremism from all ends of the political spectrum, the empty environmental rhetoric, promising things will happen on time frames that are conveniently much longer than the current administration can last. Don't give me the bush was worse argument, I don't care, I agree, he sucked, that doesn't mean the other party gets to have a go at screwing things up instead of trying to actually make things better.

But I bet "work" is where TSA agents access the web the most, if not exclusively.
What basis do you have for assuming that TSA agents don't have internet at home or smart phones? That seems like an absolutely bizarre assumption.

Plus he's a badass negotiator, you ever seen those priceline ads?
One could argue that his acting career led to his governorship of california, which led to his presidency.
It also ran quite a bit longer, they were working together 7 years, instead of being canceled after 2.
indeed, one might say lengths to which no man has gone before
do not post a threat
even a haiku riddle
may come back to you
The militia referred to is generally regarded to mean something along the lines of "every able bodied male citizen".
