Nah it's probably closer to what I've run across on this job here in Alberta working for a municipal government body. It's laziness, mixed with the "people at the top" not having a feking clue about archival or their desire to move forward. An example: Everyone in the building uses muniware or something else, the people at the top are still doing all the work by hand, and refuse blindly to update. Meeting minutes for city council are all stored on paper, there are no backups, there's no archives, nothing. And really it just screams another Slave Lake.
Must not buy much memory. I've had Kingston, Corsair, Crucial, Muskin, Patriot and G.Skill all DOA out of the box before. Last bad stick was a G.Skill eco, though they're my favorite brand especially their low voltage memory.
You might think so, but it sure didn't work for fujitsu now did it? Warranty coverage and "who picks it up" varies by where you live, in Canada, I got cold hard cash for every drive I sent back to them as they failed.
Bring back paper! It biodegrades quickly, suffres none of the disadvantages of plastic, doesn't harm wildlife... there is just too much plastic these days.
Good idea, too bad it was the environuts who pushed hard and fast for plastic. I remember the big snit in California during the late 80's over it, pretty sure I've still got some of the stickers, and brochures that they were handing out back at my place in Ontario. Yeah it was never about cheapness, it was "environmental concern" over the trees. You know, especially those forests we grow just to use in pulp making.
Hardly. Where most tree farms are, the land is unsuitable for farming, it's either excessively hilly, or too cold for normal crop rotations to work properly.
Most people who are terminal don't get morphine unless it's part of their rotation to stop opiate tolerance. My grandmother is dying, she's in palliative care now(aka the place where you go to die, when it's near the end). I looked after her for the better part of 9 months, and before I went out to Alberta to do some work, she was at 120mg of hydromorphone long acting daily, and 8 to 16mg of fast acting every hour. Since she's been in care, she's at 240mg of long acting, and 10mg hourly delivered by IV.
She's been pretty much in constant pain for the last 6 months, higher doses of medications don't really cut it at some point. I'm sure if she had the choice to die peacefully she would have already, being that she's said she's tired of waiting through all of this to die. My grandfather was dead in 3 weeks after he was diagnosed with cancer in the spine, which rapidly spread throughout his body. My great aunt was dead in 11 days from pancreatic cancer after she was diagnosed.
So while you might be a pill popper or a injection junkie, even pain meds do have a threshold.
That's pretty funny actually. Ever notice the amount of content in papers these days that are simply AP, AFP, or Reuters content, with a few words changed throughout the story.
Anyone who paid attention to the political crap back when he first started running knew that he was a simple community organizer who would be in way over his head. Too bad no one listened to those "wingnut conservatives" when they said so.
Well you get the government you vote for, so enjoy that.
The organic industry was ALWAYS marketed as naturalness, not "better" (whatever that means).
You must not live in Canada or have visited the EU in the last 5 years or so. They've marketed it as "better" and "healthier" for you, not sure if they still do in the EU, but in Canada they got fined for it.
What other seed provider would this be and where will you go when they all do the same thing? I don't think you have the slightest clue how this works, do you?
Wow talk about ignorant. Let's see, off the top of my head I can name co-op, croplan, masters choice, pioneer, pride, horizon, and I know that I'm scratching the very top of the barrel, there's 40 or 50 more.
For 99.7% of Americans, what he said was correct. For the 0.3% of Americans that were paying for inadequate coverage, he was wrong.
Wow talk about spinning, I'm sure you can explain that to the 20-30m or so who've already lost their insurance, and if the estimates are accurate upto another 85m are going to lose theirs in the next 6 months.
And Barack never made the claim absolute the way you have spun it.
Really? "If you like your insurance you can keep it. Period." "If you like your doctor you can keep them. Period" Odd, those seem to be absolutes. Perhaps you should get away from the Media Matters and DNC talking points.
Japan had laws like this for years, and they kept worker wages high. It was only when the laws were repealed you started seeing traditional western style wealth inequality. Now Japan's back to tent cities for the homeless. Something I never thought I'd see in that country.
Really? I'd love to know where you get this from, when my parents visited there in the 70's there were tent cities, and when my grandfather came over there were tent cities. And when he visited, back in the 50's and 60's there were tent cities. You want to know the difference between then and now? If you were poor, broke, and living like that you were expected to stay out of sight of the general population and hide your shame. These days, that idea has pretty much fallen by the wayside.
It's the same deal with the "salaryman" mentality that permeated the society for 30 odd years. Which of course has done a wonderful job of destroying the entire family unit.
Cold weather mainly limits range. Electric heaters are not a problem for driving in cold weather and only in extreme environments like Antarctica (which also has almost no infrastructure as well) will it be a major problem.
I'm guessing you've never been outside of a major city in Canada. The nearest city from me is 2.4hrs in good weather, it's a 4hr trip in bad weather, or when the roads are covered with snow. It's been as cold as -25C(-13F), and we've already had 3' of snow on the ground. Southern BC is outside norm on this, even southern Ontario isn't that cold right now, with a warm -3C.
The biggest detriment to fuel economy in cold climates is the blend of fuel that they use, which in most cases also includes methylhydrate to stop the fuel lines from freezing. And really, if you knew anything about A/C or cooling, you'd know that it's designed the same way as your refrigerator, with the condenser on the outside the bleed off heat, the condenser on the inside of the cabin to cool. There's nothing special about it, or even amazing.
I own a Miev, and cold weather (Upstate NY) barely affects my range.
Upstate New York doesn't get very cold, you're welcome to travel out to Alberta or Saskatoon where the average daytime temperature for the last week has been -25C(-13F) to -35C(-31F). And we haven't even got into winter yet, and in most places there's anywhere between 3" to 3' of snow on the ground. There was 3' of snow on the ground here, until the chinook came through. The average daytime temperature here in the winter is just around -20C, though it gets as cold as -45C without the windchill.
If you look at the history, islam was actually the starting point of the current equality movement, as it was the first large organized religion codified in law the fact that certain people generally viewed as "worthless" (i.e. women in christianity) actually had enough value to be able to match superior people (i.e. men in christianity) in a court of law.
Best go back and look at that history again. Islam wasn't the starting point of the equality movement, not even close. Hammurabi beat that by a fair bit. In fact it viewed and still views all women as worthless, and their testimony worth less than that of anyone else. And a male who wasn't muslim, their testimony was worth half of that.
You might also want to realize that most advances in tolerance have come from religion, where it was used as the codex for the laws and judgements. You want to compare our christian based secular legal system vs that of the islamic world and get back to me on where you went wrong?
It's ironic that you're posting this on the Internet which was invented by government funding.
Private research is all about low risk and expected short term profit. To do big things like the space program etc. you need a big push while taking big risks of failure.
Can you explain to me here in Canada, not to mention various countries in Europe why we should then be paying for excessively expensive power? It's enough to subsidize it, that's fine. Where the problem lies, and especially those within the GOP is giving them a license to print money with "green power." Which is exactly what's happening. I know that in Ontario, they're paying right up around 0.45/kWh for solar, and wind is cranking it at 0.54-0.69/kWh. And in lovely Ontario, the cost of electricity will be the highest in North America within a couple of years, which of course is doing lovely things for the industry, which is packing up and going *anywhere* else.
Really? Islam is full of intolerance to this day, can you point us to where people are "treated equally" and all that? Right, you can't. Even the most "left alone to practice" they're forced to pay a head tax.
Laws that criminalize certain acts do not preclude the victim from *also* suing the perpetrator.
Tort is very well defined many other countries unlike in the US, where it's excessively broad. Compensation is included into the criminal judgement, which can be appealed if it's felt to be too low.
In Canada and several other countries I can see this being useful. Since, deliberate infection of incurable diseases is criminal, and infecting someone with a disease that causes death is also criminal. No tort coming into this at all.
I've done several major edits, with cited sources, and several minor contributions with clearly cited sources. All of them were either reverted, or nuked from orbit. When the information which came from more than one source, and backed up didn't fit within their groupthink.
What most people are "doing wrong" is not fitting in with the highly selective groupthink. If you do that, then it's a-okay, don't do that, and they'll revert.
Considering that ethanol plugs up injectors very quickly it wouldn't surprise me. There's a reason why 2-stage injectors have become the norm, one that measures desired pressure, and actual pressure.

But the GOP is against funding solar power because they don't believe in global warming.
Well, that what they say, but it's really because the oil and coal companies have them in their pocket.
So does that mean democrats are against fiscal responsibility, because their largest donators are from insurance companies, and bank.
