Judging from your journal perhaps you should think about stop blaming everyone else in the entire world for your problems. I mean you are blaming everyone from the President of the USA to your father for your problems.
Did you ever stop to think that maybe, just maybe, the problem is yourself and you blame everyone else attitude?
Why did the interviewer allow it to degenerate into a political discussion? Hell, they couldn't keep their minds on the topic for 30 mintues and we a susposed to respect their opinions?
"Telka: You'd be surprised... not to offend anyone here if you did vote for Bush... but look how many people voted for him because "he prays". That's it... *shakes head* Staci: I don't want to talk about elections... I was fooled by the liberal propaganda that Kerry actually had a shot in hell and I voted for him -- which made his losing all the more devastating. Trisha: Understanding a sound bite about the president is easier than understanding the hundreds of games that come out yearly. Trisha: Bummed at the election as well."
These women must not read any womens magazines as they are just as 'bad' if not 'worse'. Of course, they could just be jealous that they do not get as much attention as they think they should.

Something in the passage above is amiss, has been omitted, replaced with ( "...") in the ACLU's recitation of this important amendment. Have a look at the original wording of the first amendment below and see if you can see what the ACLU left out.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
"It is no accident that freedom of speech is protected in the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances." The Constitution's framers believed that freedom of inquiry and liberty of expression were the hallmarks of a democratic society."
Humans annually consume 20 per cent of NPP generated on land (the models did not take into account ocean production). Consumption varies by region. Humans in sparsely populated regions place little demand on local production, however urban areas may consume 300 times what is produced locally. East and South Central Asia contains about half the world's population and consumes 72 per cent of the region's NPP.

The study found that humans, which represent roughly half of 1 percent of the total biomass on Earth, appropriate about 20 percent of this primary resource annually. In addition, consumption among regions varies widely. Western Europe and South Central Asia consume more than 70 percent of what their regions produce, while in South America just 6 percent is consumed.
Laws and policies are the same thing in china, otherwise their wages would not be reduced and the problem of killing female babies is easy to see, just look at the under 40 demographic numbers. There are a lot more males then females in china and this is becomming a serious problem.
Perhaps you should be the one who need to research the issue.
"China Female infanticide has existed in China for a long time, and although the One Child per Family policy has added to the problem, it didn't cause it.
The One Child Policy was introduced by the Chinese Government in 1979 with the intention of keeping the population within sustainable limits even in the face of natural disasters and poor harvests, and improving the quality of life for the Chinese population as a whole.
Under the policy, parents who have more than one child may have their wages reduced and be denied some social services.
Despite the egalitarian nature of Chinese society, many parents believe that having a son is a vital element of providing for their old age. Therefore in extreme cases, a baby is killed if it is not of the preferred sex, because of the pressure not to have more than one child."
That is from the BBC. Are you going to tell me they have a US Bias?
Google doesn't reture anything, I checked there first. Perhaps you should stop being a bitch and backup what you are saying, that is, if you didn't just make the numbers up to prove your point.
Yes - like/./. really accomplishes little when it comes to things getting changed. Just look at how much the *BSD's got accomplished in regards to distribution of WiFI firmware while all the bitching on/. didn't accomplish a thing./. = mostly talk, not much action.
How is a comic that looks like it was draw by Cartman and thinks that using every four letter word make up for their lack of drawing/writing skills ever deamed influential?
A lot of people read it but that doesn't make it influential.
If they do this they should make it so that people who run large fraud schemes (Enron, MCI/WorldCom/Sunpoint Securities and others) have to face either life in prison, the death penalty or be force to live on 18,750 per year for the rest of their lives.

I guess you are right...I mean what is Political about an election?
In the before time, from the long long ago Intel ported and sold a Unix of its own.
Perhaps info regarding thost contracts is what IBM is after.
You do know this article and my post are under the POLITICS portion on /., don't you?

Why is /. refusing to run articles covering the elections in Iraq?
No, he won't. Reagan was a conservative.
Can you support that 50% figure or or you just making shit up?

Then what do you think the above unedited quote of Al Gores means?
Well?
"During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet."
That is the quote in question. Please expain to me how the above quote isn't taking credit for creating the internet?
But you like google, a company that mispelled their own name??

"nd that hotel reported a 600% increase of their in-room porn rentals over that weekend.."
Please provide a link backing that up.
Because the game is very much influenced by the culture and people of that area of the globe and it helps if you have something to call that area...

That would have been much better if you had used the P word...ParADIGUM :)

Funny, I thought it was the Conservative side that was in favor of harsh punishment of those who break the law?

And what was so wrong with B5?
