I watched the movies recently and found them really awful (though a few scenes are really good, especially in Empire Strikes Back) so I should have no problem believing you.
But American Graffiti was an interesting movie, so doesn't this fact contradicts a bit your theory?
Yes but bombing an airplane does some screening on who you target: you still have a lot of collateral damage but basically you get to kill a lot of high-ranking citizens.
And it strikes imagination better, too - probably because those who decide what will make the headlines in the media do travel by plane.
Don't you think that being Iranian himself, the clerk had good reasons to be paranoid about potential entrapment by some under-quota fed looking for an easy target?
Actually the scams made after Haïti's earthquakes were aimed at compassionate people, not greedy ones.
These are the ones I would investigate and prosecute if I had a say in the legal process...
Besides, all those embryonic stem cells are just going to the incinerator. It takes one sick, evil piece of shit to prefer incineration to the advancement science.
Actually, that could be a point made by Dr Mengele...
On the opposite, Levi-Strauss stated that he'd rather grant humanity to a stone rather than risking denying it to a human.
So are embryos closer to stones or to humans? I wouldn't daresay...
I think I've read something about this politically motived Bathory trial in the prose part (about historical context) of the comic book "Elizabeth Bathory" from Pascal Croci, who is not hungarian (although he is goth).
I remember that there has been a similar theory about Gilles de Rais, the famous French serial killer.
I'm not an expert in medieval research, but were trials in these times really about finding the truth?
Fahrenheit 451 was science-fiction, as was the short story "A rolling thunder" and some (very few, I reckon) of others.
Not being hard SF does not prevent a story from being SF...
There's such a huge difference between a lecture made by an average teacher and a lecture made by a brilliant one, and most of these differences come from the ability of the later to make it simple and interesting.
And yes, pictures and animations CAN help making learning simple and interesting.
The fact that they are usually used to make "infotainment" doesn't mean there are no ways to use them without dumbing things.
Do you think these people are a-holes because they're haredim or are they a-holes because they're americans and so believe they are not only the Chosen People but special and unique snowflakes too, and never learned another way of community bonding than bullying a common scapegoat?
It's interesting to note that one major content filter company (the one that is - or at least was, I didn't check recently - making the lists for Orange parental control in France) belongs to the Opus Dei...
I don't know if it's related since the library's director refused to tell me which company was censoring their application, but with my adult account in my city's public library public-access computer I could not visit websites about gay rights (boring center-left websites without any schocking pictures, I mean).
And when in the neighboring MJC (a public service made for organizing cultural activities) I asked why I could not visit the Freecycle website, I was answered that obviously if I wanted to watch porn I was in the wrong place...
Slashdot Mirror
Two words
Well, starting with "of hobbits" is the best way to not read LOTR...
Tom Bombadil would probably do poorly on screen, I agree. But the scourging of the Shire? That's really a shame.
Well, in many movie theaters in France cellphone ARE blocked, so it is at least technically possible...
So you say that since you dream in 24 FPS, no one is allowed to dream in 48 FPS? Seems pretty fascist to me...

Make a profit from your work or being rewarded for your work? These are not the same...
Would you have a way to prevent the Ghostery cookie list cloud the top of any new tab I open?

There are even plugins that enable batch downloading of entire Youtube playlists.
Which ones?

Or vagina.
It depends if you have to open the airlock to get rid of an Alien queen...
it's time to invest in prison stock!
Indeed...

I want to see free education thru the PhD level as civilized countries offer.
Here, I corrected it for you.
Worked quite well for Stanley the Tool, though.

I'm not convinced...

I'm quite interested in your experience here...

Not trolling here, it's a genuine question.

He had a fair trial and should take responsibility for what he did.
Like you're obviously doing by posting AC...
