Hey, moron. The Democratic Party has been called that for a lot longer than the 6-7 years the Republicans have been saying "Democrat Party." Another point, moron. No one is trying to play the word control game except the party trying to CHANGE someone's name!
Technically, "Republican" is a more accurate definition of what our system of government is since we're a Republic and NOT a true Democracy!
Then, you're supposed to hang up. If you're just blindly capturing conversations, then you fucked up (which is what I suspect happened since they turned themselves in after-the-fact). Same thing used to exist for overseas calls. If you were spying on a foreigner and a US citizen somehow chimed in, you're supposed to hang up since you're not supposed to spy on Americans without a warrant.
Of course, in America 2.0 our leaders have decided that it's OK now to spy on citizens without warrants.
Wow, remember our history folks. You remember Gay Edgar Hoover and all his antics? Do you really want to see politicians blackmailed into policies because they're cheating on their spouses?
The problem is there are other overriding factors when members of the Legislative or Judicial branches are involved. Kind of like the complications in getting a warrant to pilfer through Rep. Bill Jefferson's Congressional offices. Just like the Congress can't pass a bill that says "President Obama is a criminal" and throw him in jail.
It's a stupid word game the Republicans came up with that fits in with their DemocRAT motif. Anyone saying it sounds like a moron or a partisan hack. What annoys me is the way the main stream press doesn't correct it when a Republican hack does it.
No, standard quid pro quo is in the service of one of your constituents. Sometimes helping a minority to sacrifice the majority. This was aiding a foreign nation.
Brave New World is timely. In modern day America, you can't teach citizens about the dangers of authoritarianism unless it's wrapped in shiny Hollywood marketing.
You make the assumption that North Korea started mixing household chemicals in their backyard and instantly created their nukes. They had LOTS of help from other countries. The point of a world-wide ban is that you shut down these kinds of conduits. How do you know that China is secretly building nuclear subs BTW? Countries have ways of verifying through espionage.
If there's a space weapons ban, there's practically no way to test without the whole world coming down on you. Your analogies aren't the same as there aren't similar bans in place on nuclear power or nuclear subs.
Fleets have more options. I'd say a custom electric design with removable battery packs. Let the taxi depot keep a supply and chargers on-hand so that the range issue becomes moot. Make the batteries modular enough that they can either be removed and replaced as a whole unit or several stacked units. Make the battery packs super accessible as well.
I used to be a big flight simulator fan. I remember the difficulties of trying to ID friendlies on night bombing runs. When there was a big stink a while back about pilots killing civilians on a night run, my immediate thought was how difficult it is to ID targets at night, miles up in the air, and traveling at 100s of yards a second. While not being anything close to a pilot, I had an elementary understanding of what pilots are going through (especially when you throw in the stress and emotions of doing it under fire).
I think the average civilian see Hollywood closeups when they think of war.
This was a game that I found to be doing this at the same time it ripped ideas off of other games. The entire "shoot off their limbs" strategy really made no sense since the "aliens" were mutated human beings (with all of the normal "skull mounted" sensory organs). The 3rd person view I found to be a neat idea, but it was clumsy in execution. The accuracy of the laser pointers were often wrong. Also, when the 3rd person vantage point hit something like the wall of a closed in space, the view actually made fighting impossible. Third, the upgrade node system (along with available funds) was far too underscaled. I found that the number of available nodes made playing around with different weapons prohibitive. I basically went through the game with 3 weapons since the cost to upgrade or maintain others wasn't worth it (I played at the highest difficulty level).
I played first D&D as a kid, then migrated to other games like Robotech, Star Wars, Traveler 2300AD, Rifts, and my all time favorite Skyrealms of Jorune. I have great memories of my friends and me sitting in our basements playing RPGs deep into the night. Here's to that +20 saving throw in the next world.
Actually, that's correct. I'v watched about 4 hours or more of MSNBC a day (including back when they tried to be "Fox News lite", a direct quote from their program director) for the past 10 years. Donahue had the best ratings on the station but they canned him because he was slamming the Iraq invasion way before it was cool.
What no one remembers is as soon as Donahue was gone, MSNBC start airing all sorts of flag-waving, "God bless America" promos to seal the deal that they weren't a bunch of liberal commies.
Then, they brought in all sorts of right wing hacks like Alan Keyes, Michael Weiner Savage, Pat Buchanan, Joe Scarborough, ??? Gibson, Michael Smiconovich (sp) and Tucker Carlson. And, they all either sucked or started racism or homophobic rants and got canned or demoted. It wasn't until they started putting on liberal voices that the station started to rise in the ratings.
Also note that MSNBC isn't a first tier cable channel like Fox News that everyone in the country gets with their basic package.
The point of her refusing to answer was she didn't want to address the pictures of her with
Alaskan separatist literature on her desk. It was a lead-in question that Sarah Palin ducked.
Maybe I spent too much time at college, but I'd change your list quite a bit:
Women who are promiscuous their whole lives or a significant portion of it. Usually because of jacked up things that happened to them earlier in life.
Women who are promiscuous when they're young then grow out of it. The promiscuity is more sexual exploration. They then get tired of the downside of that lifestyle.
Women who are pretty much monogamous. I've never been able to figure out this group; maybe because I don't interact with many of them on a deep enough level (not because I chase floosies but because these girls always seem to be in relationships). IMO, these women seem to be better at reconciling what they want from men and what they get from men. These are the girls with out-of-town boyfriends who will stay faithful over months of separation. They just seem to be more well-adjusted to me (maybe that's some sexist streak in me).
A really small percentage who truly don't like sex. They're just not obsessed with it like men are. And, for you ladies who think there isn't a difference count the number of strip clubs (male- or female-catering) in your town. Again, I'm not implying that I'm some sort of stud, but that men perceive the difference in sex drives that way. Frigid means a girl who wants sex less than you do.
We (the US) pretty much pissed on international law the way we treated another head of state (regardless of what you think of Saddam). Throw in the kangaroo court we used to get him executed without the troublesome details of how we helped him establish a chemical weapons program coming out. Yes, the same one we chastised him for and used as a rationale for our bogus invasion.
I would expect the two self-important dolts who created Southpark to relish in the acknowledgment without using their own eye for satire to see what's so very wrong with the whole situation.
Destro: "No force on Earth is a match for...nature...gone...mad! Muhahahahahahhaha!"

When you launch an "all-weather spy satellite," remember to leave out the words "all" and "spy."

Could be another battle in Google's big middle finger crusade pointed at Microsoft.
When we've got countries blowing up satellites in orbit, that's far worse than a big booster plodding along in a decaying orbit.

2003 called. It says we lost another Space Shuttle.

Are you playing at the most difficult level? I don't even bother with easy or moderate as it makes games go ridiculously quickly.

I'm not a biologist, but sex for pleasure == any time the female is not in estrus. Just about all mammals only mate when the female is fertile.
Maybe I spent too much time at college, but I'd change your list quite a bit:
The war has been going on a long time. Maybe the army and marines started breeding over there and created some new hybrid fighting force.
