What are you talking about? It's peaceful see? Look at their deaths. Hey look at those other deaths in Malaysia, or the hands being cut off, how about those deaths in Africa, hey look at that young Christian girl who was setup by the imam in Pakistan, because he hates Christians. Hey would you look at all those Copts being persecuted in Egypt my muslims(how about the one who had her house burned down because she burned a shirt). I've only used one link so far because it was really the only one the media followed in the news, though the stories are out there. But there was also the case of the 12 year old boy who was burned and dumped too. That one really didn't make the news here in the west. Fairly large news in asian media though.
This isn't anything new, not even. This is the religion of peace in action.
If you don't have a stable supply, or you don't have an excess you run into a problem. Normally in the west there is a domestic excess, enough that we can sell at a low cost or donate it to needy countries. Or even use some of it as a fuel source. But overall , as a fuel source it's just a bad idea. Especially when you have droughts, or poor years like the US had this year. It eats into your grain banks. Canada however it wasn't a bad year at all. But say we have two or three years worth of poor summers here in North America. The normal grain banking is 5-7 years here. Now take spoilage and rot into consideration(even though we use cooling and protection on them), you're going to see rapid increases on food costs.
If you want to use grains/corn for fuel. Genetically engineer stuff just for that. Don't use animal/grain crop for it.
Well I seem to remember that case, remember various front groups like avaaz were claiming it was the conservatives who were doing it? I always liked the claims of "omg the current government could be illegitimate" Well there was an investigation. The reality is the investigation showed a dead end, they couldn't find anyone. It's just as likely it was a liberal or NDP member. But let's not forget that the liberals were caught in a robocall illegally. Hey, did you know, well maybe you don't but this is from the 90's, that the Liberal Party of Canada is the reason why there is a robocall restriction against political parties? Yes indeed. Back in the 90's they were the ones who were trying to fraudulently make voters go to the wrong polling stations, and give out the wrong dates. They were mercilessly hammered to the walls over it.
The canadian system does work. Though whether all parts work all the time is another question that can be debated.
10x the votes to count, but maybe it would be worth it. If you can mark an X, you're my kind of people.
It works fine in the GTA(Greater Toronto Area). The population there is around 7.8m people. We just use more polling areas to make sure everything is accountable. The same reason why we have a voter ID system in place, because it bloody well works. Remember where it says "oath in front of an election officer, with them swearing for one person" Perjury in Canada can land you upto 14 years in jail. And the judge will throw the book at you. Perjury is a serious crime here.
Hah. I'm from Canada and a conservative that makes me on average more "liberal" than most democrats. In truth I'm more libertarian than anything else. But Obama is a liberal, even by Canadian's leftwing standards.
Looks like you pissed off the brown shirt mods. Semi kidding aside the majority already know there won't ever be a hijacking on another plane again. The second that it happens the passengers will overpower the people, even if some of them die. By the time the plane gets to the ground, the only thing left of the hijackers will be a smear of blood and bone from the cockpit doors to exit doors from the passengers making sure that they never endanger another aircraft again.
The TSA in itself is a joke, they won't follow proven methods, they'll waive through obvious security threats. They'll harass people with known medical conditions, and they're becoming more abusive. Anyone who thinks otherwise must believe or enjoy living under the rule of a police state.
Yeah even I have to agree to that. I sent a message to my friend who lives in Chongqing, after a long night of partying I got a reply of "what happened?" I guess he didn't even know about it.
That's a good point. Generally any paper I've written in the last 4 or 5 years has required at least one primary with two other sources to back it up. Though these are usually legal related so, you need to back up your existing statement with the case law precedents. Of course you can blow your mind open pretty quick when you start into that and get lost easily too.:)
Pretty much, along with cookie blockers. Anyone who doesn't use one on the internet these days is either mad or insane. Perhaps both. I don't care that site users are whining and crying that they're losing revenue, it's stuff like what was mentioned in the article itself(too long to repeat) that ensure that I'm going to keep using them. Plus the long list of abusive ads themselves that like to run with their volume at 11, or inject malware.
I'd be happy with ads, no really. If companies weren't being so stinking abusive over it. I'd call the entire thing an abusive relationship, you even get companies promising "we don't do this, don't worry we've changed." And next time, they're right back to doing it. Sounds familiar doesn't it?
You're favorably citing the Daily Caller? Tucker Carlson has adopted the model of throwing shit against the wall and seeing what sticks. Please.
Well I could have used just about any one of three dozen stories on it. But considering Daily Caller broke the original story on it, I do generally like using the original citing. They *did* beat all of the major MSM sources to the punch on this.
Peh. The only reason why people throw a fit over Rasmussen is because they use only "likely voters" and don't use +measurement voting statistics like other polling houses have been doing for the last decade.
About half the cost of a trade paperback, maybe less.. That's fairly reasonable considering there's no actual physical media, physical media distribution, or large numbers of people required to get the product to move. There's no way you can tell me that this is the era of "small magical people inside the machines, pushing around electrons" that might have worked ago 70 years ago with the first TV's, but we already know we had the great purges and got rid of them when colour TV came out.
Someone else already listed the amazon pricing here's some kindle pricing too from Canada with the updated parity pricing: HC/Ebook/PB (without used prices) Various Wheel of Time books: $19.99/9.99/4.99 Harry Potter series: $15.99-21.99/8.99-14.99/3.99-6.99 Various Neil Stephenson works: $12.99-39.99/13.99-18.99/5.99-7.99
Uh...based on 33 years worth of data. Okay there, I guess the next time a severe winter storm comes up and we get 18ft of snow here I can claim the next ice age is coming. After all there used to be a mile thick ice sheet where my house is now.
Hah. Toothbrushes, they clean, whiten, brighten and fix clutches and space stations.
My first car was a '81 mercury lynx. The thing was a piece of shit. But it worked, it got me from point to point. But it used an old style mechanical clutch with no built in spacer adjustment. I fixed that with a toothbrush and some bailing wire. I got another 40,000mi out of that clutch, and by that time the car was dead.
Oh I could pirate if I really wanted. But I do like the settlers series. See it's the whole principal of the thing, the whole idea that the DRM is so bad that I won't even pirate it should be key as well.
Not really surprised. I worked in heavy industry back in the early 2000's, and we'd immerse our relays and some of our transformer blocks in oil to keep them cool, especially if they were going to very hot parts of the world. In some cases we'd fully skip the electronics, and go right to plain relays for the setups if they were going anywhere where: Power/voltage issues were going to be a problem. Or where brownouts/spikes were going to be a problem. Or where contamination would be a serious issue.
The main reason was, in the customers case it was easier to either get the parts, or to manufacture a replacement on site than it was to try getting a hold of an electronic replacement. Especially if a PLC would be held up in customs for 3 weeks.

Why not use spoilage and rot for that?
They do, but the amount is small. Very small, usually in the amount of hundreds of tonnes. Unlike the stores which is millions of tonnes.
Rotate 75Deg on the z-axis, while in soviet RUSSIA!
It's the only way to be sure...
If you don't have a stable supply, or you don't have an excess you run into a problem.

I should have added, that the "registered to vote cards" do not allow you to vote. Says it right on the cards, they don't count as ID.

As far as I know there was no drama setting it up. It's been like this for decades.

Wikipedia is about as partisan as /. is. Don't trust it as a source, it's as simple as that.

So, what do we say about Gallup now? Especially since the DoJ is investigating them heavily after Axelrod threw a hissy fit? Are they even reliable, I doubt it.
Peh. The only reason why people throw a fit over Rasmussen is because they use only "likely voters" and don't use +measurement voting statistics like other polling houses have been doing for the last decade.
What are you willing to pay?

In Soviet America, bot deletes wife!
His Harvard Law Review writings do not reveal a person with "very high" grades.
Honestly we don't even know on most of those, because the majority of those are sealed too.
