It's not accurate to say that "practically every Bible from the time of the Codex Sinaiticus and earlier would be "corrupt" by your standard". The Majority Text is what virtually all New Testament books were going back to the autographs (originals). Everywhere outside Egypt, Christians did a generally excellent job copying books of the NT just as Jews did copying the OT.
Regarding the fight over what texts were to be included in the Canon, this was largely a fight between Gnostics and everyone else. You had the text we see today, the Apocrypha (interesting historical texts which don't have complete compatibility with known canonical texts, and texts which were clearly Gnostic. The idea of throwing out the God of the OT is a Gnostic one. The NT texts clearly show Jesus saying that He was here to fulfill the OT law. The OT is quoted in several books of the NT.
Regarding the trashcan assertion made by many, it's not as unreasonable as you may think. While recycling it into a new book may seem pragmatic, it wasn't that simple. Even this corrupt manuscript contained many uncorrupted words of God. Many scribes would not have felt it appropriate to destroy a book containing the words of God. Look at the Jews today in Israel who bury old texts in caves because they don't feel it's ok to destroy them.
Codex Sinaiticus is a Gnostic corruption of the original text. It includes Gnostic books such as The Shepard of Hermas and Barnabas. There are *thousands* of differences in the text of this book and the Majority Text (Textus Receptus). The Majority Text is the text which virtually all copies of the Greek text outside of Alexandria share. There are thousands of copies of the Majority Text in part or whole. The Alexandrian manuscripts which are largely responsible for our modern translations (post KJV) are primarily Codex Sinaiticus and Vaticanus. These two copies are both from Alexandria (a big Gnosic area). These 2 texts do not agree well with each other, nor other copies of the text.
Codex Sinaiticus survived to such a great age because it was discarded in a trashcan. Valued texts were worn out (copying by hand made good texts too valuable to discard). These texts became popular in the modern era in the 1800s when Wescott and Hort used these to create a *new* Greek manuscript by combining Codex Sinaiticus, Vaticanus, and Textus Receptus. Wescott and Hort weren't exactly upstanding Christians to look to for spiritual advice. They founded the Ghostly Guild, an occult society with a very elite pagan membership.
You didn't take into account the fact that engines are more effecient at higher throttle.
For example, if you drive 120 mph instead of 60 mph your gas mileage will be about half what it was but your wind resistance will be 4 times as great. In other words your engine effeciency will be about twice as great.
You say that it would be an "interesting case" if two 13 year olds were both prosecuted for "raping" the other. This unfortunately has happened a number of times. One of the more publicized examples was where an 11 year old girl fellated a 13 year old boy. The boy was prosecuted for statutory rape of a minor under the age of 13 and the girl was prosecuted for statutory rape of a minor under 16. This occured in Chicago a few years ago. It's totally insane to argue that 2 people both raped each other at the same time! I'd also point out that the supposed purpose for age of consent laws is to protect kids and teens. Locking them up in prison for fooling around is certainly not any way to protect them.
Unfortunately they've been dumbing down the high school chemistry books to make sure students can't figure out how to from those books. They've ruined chemistry classes in the pathetic attempt to prevent students from learning "bad things".
Imagine this. I check my email (or it's done automatically). Then I take the time to view what's there. (I use agent for email so I'm not in the email folder.) Then I delete the spam. I may do this for one spam. I'm sure I'm not alone.
At 80 million emails per day and 3 seconds average to delete each, that means 7.6 _years_ are wasted of people's lives for each day he blasts his spam.
The "boiling temperature" is usually the same as the melting temperature. In other words ice goes straight to water vapor. This can happen to some degree regardless of temperature, but the warmer it is the faster it happens and the more vapor the atmosphere can hold. If there is real water boiling, (from liquid to gas) then it will occur in the 33F to 38F region (just above 0C) depending on altitude.
I bet you have a via chipset? If so then you need to disable some stuff in your bios while it's installed. Search google to see exactly what. I had the same problem.
I bought a 45 gig one start giving errors on parts of the drive after a few months. I didn't bother sending it back because I read about all the other people with problems with it and I didn't want to loose any data again.
NASA didn't spend a dime developing it. A private company paid the R&D for it. I wonder if they've sold enough of those pens in NASA gift shops to recoup the costs?
Unfortunately you're wrong about there always being an "install gator" option. My mom installed something and wasn't given that option. It also installed other trojans/viruses of similar quality to advertizers. Then I had to clean it all off.
You're wrong about there being a requirement of space construction or refueling in space. READ the book and you'll see that it's relatively easy to do without all that bs. You launch a rocket that refuels on Mars using in-situ material and follow it with a crew 2 years later in another vessel that travels straight there. (It takes *less* energy to reach Mars than Luna!
Have you considered the possibility that many Christians believe that God created Earth in a way that appears old? After all, what would a 6000 year old planet look like? Molten rock?
Austinetic stainless steel (eg, 316 or 304) is NOT magnetic because it has a FCC molecular composition. Non-austinetic steels are the ones that are magnetic and have a BCC molecular composition. Just try to stick a magnet to 304 or 316 if you don't believe me.
The animal you're referring to is the Nutria, and they *tried* to get people to cook them, but no one did. Think about it. Would _you_ trap Nutria out of drainage canals and eat them? Finally some people started shooting them.

You forgot Farscape!
How about selling the state name like a sports stadium? :)
The Maxima starting in 2009 model year is actually 290 hp paired to a CVT.
Actually it was estimated at the time that one person would die from an Orion vessel going to Mars.

I don't remember DIVX (rental DVD DIVX disks from Circuit City) ever being cracked. Instead, everyone just avoided them and if failed as a product.

Yes I am an engineer.
If the power is out, power line broadband would not interfere because it would be without power!

There _are_ purple fleshed potatoes. I've grown purple flesh potatoes before.

It recently was raised to 16. I'm not sure if it has taken effect yet though.
