This is quite true, reality, fact and fiction however don't play well in the minds of religious zealots. To them it's quite real, and with that in hand it's 'extermination time'.
So did a Jew kicked your puppy when it was down? And even thinking that I get fox here...the irony. Oh I know, such is the the hardships of life.
Since mid-2007 launching around 800 rockets and 900 mortars, I suppose isn't a real feat or anything. I'd just hazard that they could spend that on better things. That of course is just in one small area. There's plenty of other areas that have been regularly attacked. It's just a non-news item in the western media. So perhaps, you should read more news; Rather then the stuff that's shoveled down your throat. Actually it might be better if you stopped reading the news and started doing research instead.
I suppose all I can say is: Follow the stringers. 95% of what you get out of the middle east isn't actually what's going on. But if you haven't figured that out yet, I'm not sure if I should pity you.
Obviously for them it's killing Jews, launching rockets and killing their own children in that order. Followed by cooking supplies. If you look at today's news, you'd see that while attempting to launch rockets at Israel again(probably at Sderot), they managed to kill their own children.
I expect to be modded down, the sad thing is they care more for killing Jews, then they do about feeding themselves.
Actually, we don't give a shit about your ports, we have plenty of ports of our own and many of them don't get buried in snow five months a year.
Actually you do. Our ports don't, vancouver never freezes and halifax is open 10+mo a year. The only ports that freeze are in the great lakes, you know the ones that ship out the majority of the grain to the rest of the world.
It's a two way street there. Don't get too smug, Canada needs the US more than the US needs Canada. And no, you don't provide the US with wealth, goods are only imported because it's cheaper to do so than to manufacture them internally. If ever the dollar returns to parity with the looney for an extended period of time, Canada will start hurting.
We don't need you, as much as you need us. That's the current reality of the world economy. We're a net exporter of finished and unfinished goods. Not a net importer. If you don't understand that, I'll explain. It means that if you throw a hissy fit, we simply say 'our market is now europe' and they buy our goods, or japan, or anyone else. While you're very good at consuming our goods, and tell me something do you even have the manufacturing base left to make anything? Or has it all been bulldozed over or left to rot. While we haven't had the manufacturing decay that you have, it still exists on some levels say textiles.
In the end it doesn't really matter if the Canadian dollar reaches US parity again, when the government already realized that having one free trade agreement doesn't guarantee a steady source of trade, and more are needed. And we can bank against the AUS, Yen and Euro.
Might have something to do with we sell you more oil then opec, more forestry products then you farm, more unrefined and in some cases refined goods you produce, more bulk raw minerals including diamonds. That if you want to keep oil flowing from alaska, you play nice, and if you like using our ports you do the same.
We also export people in the winter to the sunny southern US to keep it alive down there. On top of that we don't take anything, we have our own industry that lives on it's own. You decided you wanted cheaper and shipped your jobs to china/mexico and everywhere else. But don't worry! Up here, you can find that we have our own thriving manufacturing jobs that are slowly in decline along with the rest of the world.
Generally you don't go pissing in the guy's cereal when they're the ones supplying you with the goods and providing you with most of your base wealth, along with an entire new generation of brains because your edumucation system is in slow decline.
My grandmother is 86, uses XP and so far I've had to pull basic malware off, until she learned. Remember what they say? Experience is the best teacher, it is. Where my grandfather wouldn't use it really besides looking over her shoulder, he thought it was neat. It wasn't his cup of tea of technology, but something car related or mechanical worked like a charm, or AV related that was perfect and he picked it up where my grandmother was the opposite. Simplicity isn't always the best, neither is complexity.
Otherwise, teaching someone the basics of security isn't that hard. That includes understanding basic security messages, AV messages and running her own malware scans. If she gets stuck, she can call me on the phone and I walk her through everything.
Older folks are willing to learn, and are more then willing to put the time in if you're not a condescending asshole, act like a know it all, or insult their intelligence. Maybe it's some folks have the patience to learn anything and when they decide they want to do it and learn it, they'll put the effort towards it. The rest just want it nice and easy because you've made it nice and easy.
We use LED signals here in Canada(and I'm sure in places in the US) in various places. My hometown uses them and I've seen them in Toronto as well. The problem doesn't come from the signals, the problem comes from large strings of lights down the road giving back a long range flicker as you drive by. While I can't say this will be an issue for a lot of people I'm sure there's a small minority that may have an adverse reaction to them.
That being said, it may very well be less of a reaction to the current brand of "doom-glow" orange sodium lights that everyone, everywhere seems to be fond of. With me they seem to make me highly edgy and annoyed when I'm out driving in them, and I know plenty of people who work under the same types of lighting have similar problems. While the ultra-bright halogens that are used in various places along the 401 seem to have the opposite effect.
You do realize that even when the Japanese cars came to North America in the 70's they could survive a 40mph crash and wouldn't kill you. Just remember it wasn't the US that lobbied for redundant airbags, it was the europeans.
Compared to say Europe all of our political parties except the NDP are right wingers, they're about the closest ones these days to being left. Which is fun of course when you try to explain it to people.
The internet. The other companion to us up here in the frozen white north. Especially in the winter where the west has blizzards, the east has freezing rain and when they meet in the middle it's a giant slushee party.
The Laurentian Plateau(Canadian Shield) would disagree, you've got plenty of rocks there that are between 500m and 4.5b years old to compare with. We might have a different surface but the material is still there to do carbon dating analysis and other super happy fun things to see if the two are anywhere the same, or if the moon simply got snagged along the way.
My guess is it took awhile to actually find someone traceable here in North America to go after. There's been some heavy dissection of this on DSLR over the last few months, by and far most of this is redirected to a money dump in russia.
Well I didn't miss it, people must not just think too much of us x64 folks, not only did I read the article but I had to read the security advisory to find out.

What do you think you breath in when you overheat it?
Little to no worry. They just finished doing their update on blood testing up here in Canada with lead toxicity. Since we stopped using lead in say, paint, gasoline and such. 1% of the population now has >10 micrograms per decilitre, the majority have under 1.37 micrograms per decilitre.
The real issues from lead and such come from combustion, paint or piping. In other words, things you come in contact with day-to-day. Trace amounts aren't going to do you much damage.
When a government decides to have policy and decision making behind closed doors that can/may and probably will impact your day to day life, you can and are moving from a democracy to an oligarchy. Regardless of whether you're electing them or not, the state of affairs on such is the same.
People in the EU shouldn't be questioning this, they should be up in arms over it, screaming and protesting in the streets over it.
Try looking for a smaller supplier(ask one of your local TV repair shops), even where I live I have one in town and another 30mins away. Both can order whatever I want in as well, Radio Shack itself has no DIY stuff except fine solder, and basic bread boards.
There's a difference of scale. Passing mix tapes took more labor per copy and was more limited in geographic scope than passing MP3s over the Internet is.
A small one. I remember when I think it was Sony sold a 4 cassette dubber for people who had this hobby, for personal use of course. It was reasonably priced and all that, in the end you're spending 30mins/side maybe 60mins if got some really fancy tapes and weren't using something like chromium.
But I remember even as young as I was 'home recording is killing the music industry'.
Why should I have to pay a music tax on blank CDs that I'm only ever going to be using to distribute Linux?
You shouldn't. However a great number of people in countries with a levy system against recordable media, HDD's and such have already decided that if they're being treated as a criminal they may as well be a criminal; and use the system to their advantage. Myself I'm against the mass-criminalization of society by something plenty of people do, nothing is gained except point out how broken or out of touch the law or government is.
20 years ago, no one really cared if you were out passing your mix tapes around. Now hell or high water it's the end of the world if you download an mp3.
So applied mathematics, physics and oh lets toss in accounting basics are less worthwhile then say, being given the option to go out and mop floors at some place for 2-3hrs a week?
I suppose if you're not aiming high, you're not going anywhere.

Aircraft yep, rubber we can make from base or synthetics, microprocessors it depends. We do have a few micro-fabs here.

Does it kill you in a 40mph crash like the rest of the Chinese made cars do?

The same applies in the US.
I don't know what political sites and news you've been following but we have no centrist parties able to form a coalition.
We have Liberals: Heavy Left-Center
We have NDP: Heavy Left
We have Bloc: Destroy Canada for the 'idealism' of Quebec
Very centrist.

The path to doing "what you can do for your country" is through education, not forced labor.
