So you think that power plants are magically in phase because they are owned by the same company, and that plants owned by diifferent companies could never be in phase?
There is something to be said for sanitary: The condemned prisoner's family didn't do anything wrong. Denying them a decent-looking body to bury is something that the state should avoid if possible.
In the British tradition the familly didn't get the body. After an execution the body was buried inside the prison.
The "Boston Marathon Bomber" admitted to his acts. There was no doubt from that moment onward.
Untrue. The accused is at least as unreliable as any other witness.
Luckily in this case there is more evidence that just a confession.
Absent a freely-given, non-coerced confession there is always reasonable doubt.
How do you know a confession is "freely-given" and "non-coerced"? And even if it is, how do you know it's true?
Also, do you realise that you are claiming that there should be no convictions without a confession? A jury cannot convict if there is "reasonable doubt".
And their reasons are certainly not related to biased expert witnesses in murder trials.
Not so sure, they're both cases of motivated reasoning -- we know the guy did it so any "proof" is good proof. We know "CAGW" is a commie plot so the science must be wrong.
The perjury, if there is any, is in the expert witnesses claims about the strength of the evidence.
From TFA:
The review confirmed that FBI experts systematically testified to the near-certainty of “matches” of crime-scene hairs to defendants, backing their claims by citing incomplete or misleading statistics drawn from their case work.
For that matter, this works on false rape charges too, but there you need more filtering. Honest false charges (disagreements, mistakes, etc) should be safe, so much so that no victim should even remotely fear coming forward.
That's 5 reactors with over 1GW capacity each and 3 "smaller" ones.
Personally I don't call 1GW "low production".
(Actually the criterion for shutting them down had nothing to do with the size -- they just arbitarily closed all reactors that statrted commissioning before 1981).
The most active isotopes are long gone now, leaving caesium-137 with a 30-year half life. That will affect the area for centuries, but not so much as you think.
You came up with the absurd:
Most isotopes are poisonous... regardless how active they are.
It is entirely possible most isotopes are poisonous -- but only in the sense that most everything is poisonous.
All atoms are isotopes.
If you reach for a bread and I shout: "don't take it, it is contaminated by chemicals",
I'd think you were an idiot. Going by your posts I'd be right.
To some extent that's how it happens in most European countries -- we had a monopoly telephone company, and when competition was introduced the rule was the the "historical" company was obliged to sell services to other companies at cost.
Doesn't apply to new build -- if people want to differentiate on service, they can build their own fibre optic network.

So there's no anti monopoly laws where you are?
If my ISP were to traffic shape netflix I'd dump the and go with one of their competitors -- and I'm pretty sure they know that.
What's a DVD?
To give the devil his due Netflix do mention both the original book(s) and the BBC series in the credits.
So, a pretty good description of the action.
a-social.
Which is of course bollocks.
Ok, slashdot is pretty crappy social interaction, but its still social interaction.
merely that most of the rest of the world is hardly a model.
Busy moving the goalposts I see.
Nuclear plants need months to cycle up or cycle down.
Well, more like hours than months.

Frankly, the rest of the world has such a sordid history (and present) that we should be thankful for that.
Where as the genocidal, slave owning, warmongering USA is a shining city upon a hill.

Who decides they're honest?
Not "infested" with radio waves?
Nowhere in this universe.
This is about GNU Hurd -- everything is a userspace process.
(And, of course systemd is a userspace process on Linux anyway).
Of course he smells. He's not just an orc, he's a dead orc. A squashed dead orc.
The eight reactors are not reactors, they are sited.
No, they are individual reactors.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nuclear_reactors#Germany
For example at Isar there were two reactors, Isar 1, a BWR, shut down in the great Fukashima panic and Isar 2, a Konvoi PWR, still running.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isar_Nuclear_Power_Plant
So, so far, only the lowest productive "sites" got shut down. Which is in comparison a pretty low number.
8 of 17 is roughly 50% of the reactors. You may consider that "low".
The reactors that were shut down were:
Biblis 1: 1167 MW
Biblis 2: 1240 MW
Brunsbüttel: 771 MW
Isar 1: 878 MW
Krümmel: 1346 MW
Neckarwestheim 1: 785 MW
Philippsburg 1: 890 MW
Unterweser 1345 MW
That's 5 reactors with over 1GW capacity each and 3 "smaller" ones.
Personally I don't call 1GW "low production".
(Actually the criterion for shutting them down had nothing to do with the size -- they just arbitarily closed all reactors that statrted commissioning before 1981).
Are you agreeing with me or disagreeing?
I said:
Eight of 17 reactors have been shut down, so you're right, it's not "most", it's just "half of them".
You reply:
You easy see, 9 are still running.
Well, since 17 - 8 = 9 that is exactly what I said.
You then go on with the bizzare claim:
And those nine are the oldest with the lowest output.
Which is nonsense. It's the older reactors that were closed:
Biblis 1 (1975)
Biblis 2 (1977)
Brunsbüttel (1977)
Isar 1 (1979)
Krümmel (1984)
Neckarwestheim 1 (1976)
Philippsburg 1 (1980)
Unterweser 1 (1979)
All but one of the ones still running went into service after 1984.
I'm talking reactors, not sites.
Well, the parent gave a dumb template.
So I reused his phrase.
Bollocks.
The parent said:

The problem is that if there is a monopoly the regulators always end up captured by the supplier.
Much easier to police regulation of competition.
