Did he say anything about rebellion? We can vote you know. Alot of people are unhappy with George Bush (I myself love him,) and it is very possible that he won't be president after November, without a rebellion.
American is a Democratic Republic. We vote for those who represent us.
What about insect? That is the next step. Two consenting adults of the same specifies.
Black people wanted equal treatment to the whites in the 60's. Homosexuals have equal treatment already. They can already marry some one of the opposite sex. What they want is SPECIAL TREATMENT.
Comparing the homosexual quest for marriage to civilrights is horrible in logic and in sensitivy.
Maybe when the butt fucking fags get out and start getting bit by police dogs, killed with buckshot, hit by water cannons, and arrested then you can compare the two. Until then stfu.
Right cause it's just Christians that are against homosexuals.
The majority of the religons in the world, espically the top four don't agree with homosexuality and have always preached against them. (Hindu, Muslim, Judism, Christanity.)
Those religons make up the majority of the population on this earth. So most of this earth is against homosexuality, not just christans. It's all fine and cool if you want to bash christianity, but do it half way intelligently.
Can't you just use bleach, or alcohol or something? Instead of pissing on your hands? Or does that just take all the fun out of it.
The Vikings used boiled cow urine to treat their wounds with. It was very high in Ammonium and helped to provide a sterilizing badage over the wound. But they didn't know about Alcohol or bleach back then.
Imagine. You single handedly could bring cow milking into the 21 century.
I just wanted to say thanks for going over there. Unlike some ppl on slashdot.org I am forever indebited to you for your sacrafice to your country. While your were under mortar attack, and risking your life for your country I was going to college. Thanks again!
Saddam (or who ever) was wrong for having it put on the top of a n apartment buidling. Simply because they placed the Antenna on a civilian target on purpose. Similarly moving tanks near mosque and using schools as military storage. He wanted to raise public outrage enough to where the rest of the Arab Nations, or the world made the United States stop.
And stupid people like you followed his plan perfectly. (To bad the rest of the world didn't.)
Not that if I wasn't Saddam I wouldn't have done the same thing. It just goes to show that Saddam dosen't care about his people.
In civilized nations we have rules against mixing military and civilan infrastructure. Troops don't live among civilians, and we don't have radio antennas belong only to the government on top of civilan houses.
Saddam and his military leaders did all this so people like you whould do exactlly what your doing.
I don't know what your talking saying that college loans have "ridiculous interest and the fact that it takes years and years and years to pay it off."
I have taken out two loans totaling $10,000. The interest rate for both these loans are under 3%. The reasone I got these loans was because I lost a scholarship. I didn't get these loans for being a minority or anything else. In fact I'm a white American citizen whose family makes over $100,000 a year. And obviously my G.P.A. isn't that high since I lost my only scholarship. Point being, these loans are avaliable for any one.
I beleive they are stafford loans and another commenter has mentioned these. For 3% one would do good to borrow the money and invest it in mutal funds.
If you consider 3% interest high then I suggest you stop being so jewish.
I agree about working and going to college, I always work during the summer and christmas break. Last semester (I'm a senior) was the first semester I got a job, and it's a joke of a job. I can't imagine having a real job (stocking, waiting tables) and then having to do school also.
Did you even read the article you posted? Over 700 Canidates were eliminated because they wouldn't ".. demonstrate their loyalty to the Islamic Republic and swear allegiance to the system." Dosen't sound like a true democracy to me.
They also only elected a parliment, and president not their head leaders. You see the "leader of the Islamic Revolution appointed for life by the Assembly of Experts" http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/fact book/geos/ ir.html I might be mistaken, but I beleive the "Assembly of Experts" is a group of Islamic Clerics who are still very fundmentalist. Iran is a theocracy not a democracy.
I agree that the past election was a giant step foward but is not were near a real election. No third parties (such as the U.N.) were there to verify the votes.
If Iran is a democracy so was Iraq too since the elected Saddam Hussien as their "president" in the past year (before we "liberated" them.) I'll find a site if I must, but I remember Iranians voting in Polls that they wanted their country to start relationships with America again. What did the government do? Shut the polls down.
I wouldn't consider Iran anything close to a democracy yet.
ACNS = Academic and Computing Solutions They are the head computer people that are utterly useless. We get hacked 2-3 times a week (thanks to outlook and exchange.) My boss wants to get a firewall, instead they want us to get a wireless security box. (We are getting hacked from foreign countries.)
They think the solution to the SQL slammer that hit us is to switch to access. It dosen't really matter waht the faculty wants. Everyone is assuming this is for CS, IS, or MIS actually it's for the college of communicaiton, and the faculty could really give a shit.
Go to hell and die. IDF = The new SS You and your people all the new Nazi party, treating the palestines the same way the nazi germany did to your grandfather.
I have a webmail account via FSU. I have a share T-1 at my aparment complex with no SMTP server.
I send and receive work from school, work, home(when I'm on vaction) and my apartment.
I email files to myself, and like to save them in folders.
How would I have access to all my old mail, and current mail at one computer, yet be able to go to another computer and have access to the same thing without having to resend myself my email database or use a webmail program?
Sure I could SSH into my machine at home all the time, but considering it's on a T-1 without a fire wall (Apartment complex dosen't have one, I can't afford) it's open to be hacked by any one else in my apartment complex or the internet period.
It's the quickest easiest solution no matter what computer I'm on. (Alot of the computers at school are running win2k and I don't have administrator privlages.) I run both Win2k and Linux at home.
Oh not to mention that I don't want to send from a different SMTP server for every freaking computer I'm on, and the SMTP server I use requires you to be on the FSU network which neither my apartment nor home computer are one.
Solve my problem, and I'll switch to home pop clients.
There is no way in hell on a Gigabyte network it takes 20-45 minutes for a just XP.
Where I work at the School of Communications @ FSU. (Comm.fsu.edu) we use Norton Ghost over a 100Mbit network. Win2k, SPSS Pro, Adobe, Microsoft office, and just about every other academic program you can thing of is on the partition and it might take 15 minuts.
We start ghosting machine(s) and go out and have a smoke, and by the time we get back there done. Even on a slower 10mbit network we have it only takes about 30 minutes.
If your on a gigabite network, you can transfer at least 1 Gig a minute.
Thats UCF. At FSU we party hard when we can, but get work done during the day. (You can only start drinking so early, and marijuana kills my java coding.)
Partying great, but for most of the hot sluts you gotta be in a Frat, or not worried about VD's. (I for one want no warts, and don't have $2,000 to be butt fucked by a bunch of other guys that can't make friends without money.)
I go to FSU, I knew all along it's a awsome school.
We have a Linux Cluster some where on campus. A non-linear cycltron(sp?). 3 Electronic Microscopes (1 scanning, 2 passive)a 10 Million dollar research grant from the Navy for Nuclear research (reactors and such.) We also have a damn good football team. (Among tons of other things)
Oh and the majority of FSU is female!
The engineering school (where the magnet experiments were done) all use Sun's though..
Yes the Mormon church is all about knowledge. That is why your temple ceremony's are such easily accessible information. That is why the Mormon church tried to sue the government so that the temple ceremonys wouldn't be in the Library Of Congress.
Mormon's can be dis-fellowshipped or excumenicated for talking about what goes on the in the temple.
Oh I'd agree with about Mormon's loving Linux, but for opposite reasons. Are you a convert or life member? You ever heard about how the Mormon's practiced communism in the early days of the church (Oh I'm sorry they called something like "the law of concecration") But it was the same thing, whatever you earned/produced you gave to the bishop and he split it up according to the needs of each family. If you didn't practice this law, you were execumenicated. (I know i'm spelling that wrong, but you get my poing.)
The "free agency" that the Mormon church talks about has nothing to do with Linux.
I worked for lee county misquito control last summer. (Visit www.lcmcd.org)
You have no idea what your talking about. First the majority of Mosquito Zappers use light and electricity not Co2. The good ones that use Co2 cost upwards of $1,000 and use Propane to attract mosquitos, not kill them just attract them away from you.
The device burns propane so that it produces Co2 and produces light both of which attract mosquitos.
It's impossible to eradicate mosquito's but you can certianly use Nature to kill mosquitos. Mosquito's play no valuable part in our ecosystem, anything that eats them can just as easily eat another insect or another insect in larva stage.
Get a clue what your talking about you fucking tree hugger. Your just another I know everything slashdot expert but you don't know shit.
Why are you using a computer? It produces Co2? Get the fuck off the internet and die.
Elimiating mosquito's won't mess anything up besides the number 1 killer in the world of children Malaria. If you like mosquito's so much go live in Cuba mother fucker.
Thats what your are. You are a new Storm trooper. Israel = The New Nazi Germany IDF = The New SS
You and your people are no better then the Nazi's that slaughtered your grandparents. You treat the palestines the same way the Nazi's treated you. Because of this I have no remorse or sorrow for what the suicide bombers are doing to the jews. Because we celebrate Warsaw, the Palestines are doing the same thing.
We bomb Kosvo and Yugasolva because of genocide? Yet we let your so called 40 year old nation of Israeli survive? And even help you out!
That is why I'm sad to be an American. If I where as Isreali I'd kill myself and my family and every other Isreali I could.
I was talking about our "Cruise" missle not the round about term cruise missle.
And I think you overestimate the reach of a 2nd-year CSer. They can barely program C, or Java much less even start to program assembly. Maybe all the CS people that I know from FSU, UF, UCF, and USF don't know shit. But even if it is within the reach of a 2nd-yr CSer we where talking about missles of today. Not WWII
The parent comment dosen't understand why it so hard for Iraq to further their missles range. I'm sure the Al-Hussien missles already have range well outside the V-1. I know the Al-Hussien's are suppose to have a range of 600+ Kilometers. I have no idea about the V-1.
The parent comment writer is one of those people that understand in Theory how to do something, But his problem is, he thinks he can do it in real life. Sure I understand how a Nuclear bomb works, but I'd be damned if I was give the supplies and told to make one.
My lack of knowledge? You sound like my little brother guessing about something he has no idea what he is talking about.
My grandad retired from the Army working in missles which he had done since the korean war. He use to be stationed in North/South Dakota (Does that tell you anything?)
My friend/neighbor is in the reserves for the Marines. His Military Occupational Speciality is the TOE and Javalin missle system. He read your post and says "thanks for the good laugh". (He was laughing for a good 10 minutes)
Information Studies has nothing to do with Management. That is MIS (Managment Information Studies) which is normally under the college of business. Information Stuides is its own school (at least here at FSU, and has nothing to do with management what so ever.)
I'll just say this, Unless you going to MIT, CALTECH, Rice or some other prestigous university, there is no way in hell your coding assembly at a 100 level course (all the state universities that I know of have no such thing as a 100 level course you mean 1000?) I even doubt you could be taking Core Classes your 1st, 2nd or 3rd semester at college unless you earned college credits in highschool
Even if you are learning to program assembly, your learning to program assembly for the x86 processor or something else that is common. You going to put a x86 or PowerPC chip on a missle? No, so your going to have to relarn assembly for that specific processer.
Please if you do actually go to college what college? And let me see a.edu email address with your name in it from that college.
If you think the missle guidence system is easy to make I suggest you get in the Industry cause you'll make a ton of money for nations trying to develop it.
I think you lack the knowledge to realize exactlly how difficult it would be to make a guidance system. Your one of those people who know just enough to make themselves dangerous but not anything more. You must not know shit to even suggest that you can program the guidence system in Basic.
It's not that simple. First of all missles don't go in a Arch. Motars and artillery shells travel in a arch. You don't need computers to aim shells that travel in a arch. You need trig. When was the last time you saw a artillery or motar shell with a guidance computer in it? Before motar's and artillery they had these things called "cannons." They didn't have computers back then but guess what. The "cannon" ball in the "cannon" still would travel at a arc. And the good "cannon" aimers could hit there target without these "computers" you speak of.
Missles travel any path they are programmed to. From what I understand the Cruise missle when it gets within a certain range of the target will switch into terrain targeting mode and follow valleys, go on top of hills etc to avoid radar and being shot down.
Why do you think a missle defense system is so hard to create? Not just because the missles are going so fast but they don't travel at predictable rates. Such a stupid guidence system of yours would make it very easy.
And in your little example what the hell is the 2nd or 3rd year computer science major going to program the guidence system in? C? You moron they'd have to write assembly for the specific cpu they used.
As a 3rd year Information Studies student who does know how to read and follow simple schematics I would have no idea to even go about the thing. I don't know many 4th year or even graduate students that know assembly, much less assembly for a non x86 processor.
What is the GPS system going to do in your imaginary missle? It isn't much good without a guidance system and a way to steer the missle to the target (like moving fins on the back.) Just became a whole lot more complicated.
