  1. Re:No surprise then that the uncivalised hate them on New Research Sheds Light On the Evolution of Dogs · · Score: 1

    Exactly the same way you can tell if a human has eaten filth, by the smell of the sweat. Why do you think perfumes and deodarants are such a huge market? Nothing nastier than the sweat of someone full of nitra/ites and preservatives. They are totally unnecessary when you eat healthy... i'm leaving asparagus off the healthy list here.

    You sound pretty confident in your belief. Only problem is that it is a belief, you have absolutely zero scientific proof. Please don't post your religious dogma here.

  8. Not just psychology on We Aren't the World: Why Americans Make Bad Study Subjects · · Score: 1
    US research in medicine, anatomy, kinesiology, etc... over generalized or stated things as applying to humans when in some instances they applied only to the US. Such as handedness, knee articulation, age of joint fusion or even whether fusion is normal, walking gait, foot posture, the list goes on. Psychology/psychiatry has known about mental differences for decades, it's why different cultures have different mental disorders and therefore different diagnostic criteria.

    Of course, this doesn't mean the information is useless, we just need to tag data with area and time of collection and come up with a proper organization schema. For example, popular fashion is to some extent dictated by the dominant posture of the era, without taking into account causes you cannot compare across time and space.

    Yes. After 9/11 the agency became concerned with the countries the US told them to be concerned about.

    umm, that's because you already have nuclear weapons and you carry them around sticking out of your back pockets like the petty tyrant on the school field. You've also declared them as part of an 'axis of evil'. Even have plans to invade them.

    Why would NK posture against anybody else if nobody else is bullying them?

    Nothing terrifying about that, we've known that for decades, just like we've known about the uselessness of incarceration.

    The only terrifying part is that the government still uses both against all evidence that they don't work.

    going the opposite direction. I just notated on the form which information was false but that the agent insisted I needed to sign it regardless of whether it was true. They didn't seem too happy about that but let me through anyways.

  17. Cooking like any other skill on Book Review: To Save Everything, Click Here · · Score: 1
    requires mastery of the ultimate tool, the human body. This is why it is difficult. If a person does not understand up/down they cannot cut consistently because they have no base line. If a person doesn't understand the areas of their tongue it is harder to tease out flavours. If a person doesn't understand their sensitivies the won't know their pansy hands require gloves to handle the mildest of 'chili' peppers.

    It also requires a certain mastery of science. Hot expands, temperature of chemical reactions, boiling point of water, etc and how these manifest physically and how they can be used as visual clues, e.g.,if steam is escaping while frying foods then oil isn't going in, if the steam stops then either the internal temp dropped below 100/212 or you dried out your food, the time elapsed will tell you which.

    These are not difficult things to understand. If they are stated properly and shown correctly. However that is not what recipes are for and expecting recipes to teach you this borders on insanity. Everything in it's place.

    Sigh, I really need to up the work on my system. It's like religion all over again. To truly pass on knowledge one must truly understand everything that is taking place. To pass on energetic patterns of interaction without full understanding all you need is someone standing beside you.

    Cave woman. If your diet and health is so bad that you require all those products plus teeth whiteners to be attractive, you aren't.
