As long as I'm not forced to lay eyes on a male nipple other than my own, what does it matter who dies? Not all wardrobe malfunctions are as lucky as the incident with Janet; it could have been Justin Timberlake's breasts that you saw. If Janet is ever on board a launch vehicle I will root for it not to explode- especially if Justin is on board since I'd rather not see his breasts and not all the astronauts are as hot as Janet.
a chemical you can pour into this screw (or any screw for that matter) as if it were a mold and insert shank into it before it sets, so you have a matching screwdriver when you are done?
That would be handy- a chemical with cylindrically pentagonal symmetry (e.g. one of the 32 pentachiral isomers of pentavalent pentacyclo-1,2,3,4,5-phenylpentaterp-1,2,3,4-pentasterylpenta-5-pentylpentanene) that undergoes a phase transition into long pentagonal needle-like five-sided crystals with wide comfortable handles as it cools down past 55 degrees.
Yeah I forgot about Mercury's 3:2 spin-orbit resonance that it picks up during eras of high orbital eccentricity induced by Earth and Venus. (Now the orbit is more circular, and we didn't know about the 3:2 thing for a long time because the sun is in our eyes.) A day on Mercury isn't infinitely long, but it's still two Mercury years.
This actually isn't an insurmountable problem. If you walked around Mercury's equator and always kept the sun on the horizon, you'd be moving an average of 2 mph. It sounds like a job for camels.
Since it's closest to the sun Mercury is the most egg-shaped of the planets. The egg shape points toward the sun because the daylight side sees a larger gravitational field than the nighttime side; it gets pulled in harder. This effect is referred to as the tidal force; it falls off as the inverse cube power of the orbital radius. (Gravity itself only falls off as the inverse square, and extends further out.)
If a planet or moon has a tight orbit and rotates, tidal forces keep rearranging it internally all day and night to maintain the egg shape pointing at the sun. This burns the rotational energy away until it's gone; although not yet with Io. It has a tight orbit around Jupiter, and is still grinding to a halt and relieving the internal heat through volcanoes.
We never see the far side of the earth's moon because it finished all this billions of years ago. So did Mercury. The year and day there are synchronized, the sun never moves in the sky, and it's either always daytime and sizzling, always nighttime and freezing, or always "sunrise" or "sunset" at the comfortable places in between that are at room temperature.
So your competitors are minting pennies faster than you and they get to spend the extra pennies that they mint, whereas you do not because you need to mint the pennies even though by minting them you trigger inflation which makes everybody's pennies and extra pennies worth less on a per penny basis.
That's because they would only be preaching to the quire (who already rejected it)
So... in other words, you're saying everyone who watches FOX is already convinced of everything they say, so their propaganda has no effect. Oh.
I suspect this wouldn't apply to MSNBC, would it?
So what was implemented incorrectly?
Before you post crap about the law being "unconstitutional", I know about the judge from Texas who issued that opinion. Are you familiar with his arguments? Besides essentially filibustering it based on his irrelevant policy positions (he thinks it would hire too many people who are not defending the border), he finds the law unconstitutional because it provides health care to illegal aliens.
I love how conservatives always consider the obvious, like what to do with a bleeding Mexican.
In reply to paragraph II: only if you ignore the actual history of the term, who came up with it, how they described it, etc. etc. etc. Not just a matter of "OMG just sticking the guys name in front". Quit pretending to be stupid.
Tsk tsk- dragging our goodhearted policy discussion down into the sewer with Nazi nonsense, eh? You ought to be ashamed of yourself.
Before leaving I'll point out once more: "Obamacare" is a partisan propaganda label designed and successfully used to craft opinion and twist poll results. Really not hard to understand- "the name has nothing to do with it" only in your little fantasy world.
I have an unrelated question. I have surgery sometime next year to do a surface EEG grid which involves buzzsawing a door in the skull and draping a net of wires across the surface of the cortex. They put the door back in, and analyze the voltages of the wires for a week with EEG equipment. Then they saw the door back open again, and pull the wires out, possibly scooping something else out before they close the door back up or good.
This is supposedly done while they're constantly harassing you to stay awake, and they keep doing weird things while they're in there messing around like flip flash cards of donkeys and apples and squares to ask you what's on each card. It sounds like they use local anesthesia, in conjunction with only partial global anesthesia; I was wondering if it's a good idea to bring in a doob so we can just pass it around during surgery. "Hey dude wake up, it's your turn. Do you think this looks like a moon or a banana? I thought it was a banana myself but I'm probably just hungry."
Wow.. Who said anything about the country wanting a public option?
Not me. I didn't say anything about that. Read more carefully before going apeshit.
I brought up the public option because I was trying to figure out if your definition of Obamacare included it or not, since the ACA does not, but it was ostensibly included in Obama's "interpretations of what health care reform should have been". If you're going to bitch about "Obamacare" which you say is "his interpretations of what health care should have been" I don't even know which of those two you're complaining about. Your intent isn't "placing a name to the version". You're really just reaching for the worst sounding name for propagandist reasons; "Obamacare" was never anything but a slur and it's a stupid term to include in a poll question unless you're purposefully trying to slant the result.
As for the regurgitated FOX bullshit about the government screwing up everything it touches, I'm sure there's a lot more but don't bother presenting it.
You know, it's funny you would make an argument like this considering that most people don't know what "Obamacare" even means, as most of it was purposefully designed not to take effect until after 2014 when Republicans have had a chance to repeal it first. If people really "don't like the implementation of it", then what is it they specifically don't like about it when asked? Or do they just "know they don't like Obamacare", which is why you insist on referring to it that way in your polls?
You can't even seem to decide yourself what "Obamacare" means. "His interpretations of what health care reform should have been" included a public option for example, but the Affordable Care Act (which always polls better than "Obamacare") doesn't implement one.
Explain, then, how it was that 60% (more in some polls) of the American people opposed Obamacare, yet it got passed anyway?
Well everyone hates "Obamacare". The legislation that was passed enjoys approval of a majority of the public when it's actually described, but when polling questions ask a boneheaded question like "Do you approve of Obamacare", it regularly receives disapproval. Only idiots refer to something using an "Obama" FOX-style prefix when asking people whether they like it or not.
One answer: They threw themselves on their swords for the greater good of the party... the single party. They knew they'd get booted, but didn't care because Repubs and Dems are the same thing, just a thin veneer differentiates the two.
In other words, they're presumably thinking, I'm going to vote yes on X because "I'm the same thing as" person Y who is voting no on X. WTF are you smoking? Is it expensive? Because it seems that if both parties are full of bad people, and if that automatically seems to extend to equally bad, there's no point in distinguishing between them or holding anyone accountable for anything.
This isn't really "news that matters" as something like this might corrupt a primary election in theory, but I seriously doubt many Democrats are going to show up at Republican primaries, or vice versa. And it isn't clear at all that they would want to vote for Palin anyway once they've seen the other goodies available by then.
This is really an old, biperennial issue. People in both parties talk about doing this every two years, as if it's a new idea and nobody's ever thought of voting for a weak candidate in the opposing party's primary. This would be deleterious behavior, if these plans were actually followed through, but people will generally only snark (a lot, loudly) about doing this. It's not a very enticing idea in the first place, won't hold your interest for long before an election, and if you think it through that night, you'll decide you'd rather spend your time with an xbox than members of the opposing party.
"Years away" could mean as soon as 12 months. I can see not holding your breath, or even not fasting. You could at least, however, take a vow of chastity.
I could make a case for recording government officials 24/7.
And you would lose.
If you haven't done anything wrong, you shouldn't have anything to hide.
This is on my brief list of exact sentences where I usually stop reading, but I couldn't help but notice this:
power corrupts, so we need to keep a strict watchful eye on power given to a citizen that other citizens do not have. Like the ability to commit kidnapping (arresting/jailing someone), theft (taxes/fees), and murder (capital punishment).
LOL- even in the UK (Oceania) they don't yet have telescreens on walls in people's houses to record ministers 24/7 for fear they may raise taxes or barristers 24/7 in order to prevent frivolous prosecutions! The case you'd make here is for 1984!
not true the fbi created the method... i fix copiers. no color copier is allowed to be sold in the usa without this dot pattern encoded in the image it is created in the print engine not from the image process even when the machine is internaly calibrating itself these dots are formed and visable on the transfer belt the only information encoded in the dots is model numbers and time and date that way if a faudulent document is found it can be traced back to the source...one day the fbi showed up and took an entire machine as evidence when some funny money showed up...BTW most high end color copiers can detect money being prited on them and will actually code to the point where your local rep cant fix it and a rep from the manufacturer has to come in and reset it...that how deep the rabbit hole goes my friend for the manufacture i represent there are only 4 people in the usa that can reset that code

So proud of not giving a shit about "the environment and all those species". You sound fucking Palinesque.
And you sound like an idiot. When environmentalism gets serious, then I'll take it seriously.

Apply for jobs at Facebook.
With rotation tidally fixed to the sun, and magnetic shielding to boot, Mercury should have some nice real estate at its hot/cold boundary!
All you'd need now is oxygen, water, pressurization, mirrors, UV filters, and some frozen food that you keep in the shade of a big crater.
