Prosecution will never happen, everybody is prohibited by law from testifying to whether the documents Snowden stole are authentic or not, i.e. the infamous "I can neither confirm nor deny", and Snowden is unlikely to respond to a sumons to testify.
While "discipline" helps, the parents have to be onboard with the program to insure consistency, yet ADHD tends to run in families so the parents are likely to be ADHD as well and are therefore unlikely to be fair and consistant disciplinarieans themselves. Family Therapy with medication as an adjuct is more likely to be effective.
The ACA is something, and something is better than nothing, but the medical industry is saturated with greed and gouging. Take the obscene profits out of medical care and there is no incentive for mass misdiagnosis.
Sure, just got a quote for $1,095.00 a month with a $10,000.00 annual deductable, that seems worse than nothing to me. I have a hard time seeing ACA as anything other than Obama's version of corporate welfare, at best, at worst a calculated effort to move the country into full on socialized medicine.
You can easily spend an hour finding the best price for a medication. You can spend days pricing out a procedure. It's true that part of this is due to lack of incentives. Some places will flat out refuse to quote you a price, and you can bet the ones who do quote you do not consider it binding. They can sprinkle some different meds and have a couple extra doctors glance at your chart to double your bill..
I just go to Michigan drug prices and look up anything that's going to get refilled and move the Rx to the cheapest provider, the Meijers chain has a lot of common antibiotics for free, Walmart has free statins as well.
Just type your drug name and "price" into google and you'll find something helpfull.
"non-profit" hospitals abound in the U.S, yet they still charge almost the exact same rates as your evil "for-profit" ones. They all use a pricing sheet called the "chargemaster" that they guard zealously.
For the most part the third-party payers have a list of Usual and Customary Charges and it's the average what caregiver's charge for the regon and class of providers, Medicaid pays about 60%, most other commercial insurances pay 80%; the Hospital figures out what they want to be paid, and devides that by their re-imbursement rate and charges that amount. What they charge is higher than what they will be paid, (on purpose) and they writeoff the difference if the accept your insurance. This gives the caregivers an increasing reimbursment, while still being able to whine about how much they have to write off! If you don't have insurance your double screwed because you'll have to pay what they want plus what they normally expect to writeoff.
Grinch wasn't happy simply because he had sensitivity issues, and didn't fit in; it wasn't his fault that stupid stork dropped him off on the Wrong Planet! It would be like being the only cat in a room full of dogs and all of the dogs keep trying to turn you into a dog. Those Christmas carols sheesh they're like finger nails dragged across a blackboard! Those Whos are luckey Grinch didn't go Postal on them istead of take their christmas gifts and decorations.
Brown dwarfs are substellar objects too low in mass to sustain hydrogen-1 fusion reactions in their cores, unlike main-sequence stars, which can. They occupy the mass range between the heaviest gas giants and the lightest stars, with an upper limit around 75[1] to 80 Jupiter masses (MJ). Brown dwarfs heavier than about 13 MJ are thought to fuse deuterium and those above ~65 MJ, fuse lithium as well.[2] Brown dwarf
There is a class of objects between planets and red dwarf binaries.
Most Americans would consider rabbits pets rather than food of course with the prices of commercial meat in the USA people would be advised to keep their pets under close supervision
Actually no, the Founding Fathers seemed more Dieist than Christians and there is a constitutional prohibition against the establishment of an official religion in the US. The number of Americans who are Christian by default far exceeds the number of Americans who are Christians by choise, many more Americans are Christians for Baptism, Wedding and Funerals than are continuously practicing.
Perhaps, but certain dosages, typically in the above 10Gy have a stupifing effect on people, which may mercifully reduce the awareness of the horrendous gastrointestinal reactions to the radiation.
Oh come on, obviously you have never actually read the Bible, not only is there nowhere where in the Bible where it says there is only one God, there are several verses that speak to gods as in a pantheon. Most of what " Christians" believe either isn't in the Bible or is obviously a blatant political motivated miss-translation.
What about the past 5 years would make you think Obama could have a high profile failure and expect to be forgiven? That is utter nonsense.
Pretty much everything in the last 5 years, if the press had been as aggressive Obama as they were with W. Bush, he definately would not have gotten as many free passes as he has had.
Your assuming that the POTUS even wanted the website to work, the website would allow Americans that are required to purchase health insurance to compairison shop for prices and features; it's not hard to imagine that is not in the best interests of all the stakeholders. Many insurance companies are spending much more money on marketing, looks to me like the big boys are working hard to stake out their market share in a rapidly increasing market and are using their advertising budgets to freeze out the smaller companies and the longer the website is down the longer the big guys have to get a headstart.
I'm not sure I'd go as far as saying they FUBARed the site on purpose, but I can see how they mihgt not be motivated to follow up on it as much as they should have.
The impresssssion I got was the article was talking mostly about hobby grade quadracopters, with perhaps a webcam controlled by a 2.4 GHz hobbiest remote controller, not military grade UAVs; a few may have been commercial grade units marketed for industrial or law enforcement use.
Firing up a transmitter powerfull enough to jam a military grade drone flying over a battlefield is the shurest way I know of to find out if Allah realy has 72 virgins waiting for you in the promised land.
First a radionucliotide is essentially non-existant after a period of 10 half-lives so Iodine 131 having a half-life of 8 days, is gone in 3 months, cesium with a half-life of 30.17 years is gone in 3 centuries. Both curium and americium are either fertile or fissile depending on whether the atomic weight is even or odd but regardless both are nuclear fuels.
Cesium is the closest to being a show stopper , but is medically usefull, yet without it anybody and their brothers would be extracting plutonium; so most of your supposed waste, isn't waste.
Putting a quarter of a million people on unemployment is really going to help the economy. Not to mention all of the towns around military installations that would collapse, and not just in the USA.
The French reprocess spent nuclear fuel rods, which greatly reduces the waste storage requirements; even without reprocessing after 300 years it's back to low level hazard and pretty much ready to be reused as high quality nuclear fuel
I rather doubt it's self-repairing over the ultra-sonic link, more likely there are repair files loaded onto the infected machine from the infecting USB stick and the ultra-sonic link is to feed any files that Snowden didn't get out through a networked machine.
Sorry I wasn't clear, even considering that I'm a libertarian leaning, tea partyish conservative, and work in the Dental industry so I have experience with the vampires that are the 3rd party payors, I agree that the approach should be either full-blown socialized healthcare or just add a few tweeks to the present system; this chimera of Obamacare is nothing but corporate welfare for the "insurance" companies.
Your biggest error is it's not insurance, for example you have home insurance, when your home gets damaged, your home insurance covers the damage within the specified conditions without regard to whether you continue to keep the policy inforce. Sandy ripped homes off their foundations I'm sure most of the owners of those holes in the ground didn't see any benefit in keeping the holes insured. Now for grins and giggles try canceling your healthcare "insurance" half way through a bone marrow stem cell transplant and telling them you aquired Leukemia while their policy was inforce so they have to pay for your care until your cured.
On December 24, 2009, the Senate passed an alternative health care bill, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (H.R. 3590).[2] In 2010, the House abandoned its reform bill in favor of amending the Senate bill (via the reconciliation process) in the form of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010.
After that the Democrats got masacured in the midterm elections of 2010 making it impossible to get anything through the House of Representatives that the Republicans opposed. Many law suits were filed against Obamacare, finally making it to the Supreme Court which rulled;
“The Affordable Care Act’s requirement that certain individuals pay a financial penalty for not obtaining health insurance may reasonably be characterized as a tax,” Chief Justice Roberts wrote in the majority opinion. “Because the Constitution permits such a tax, it is not our role to forbid it, or to pass upon its wisdom or fairness.”
At the same time, the court rejected the argument that the administration had pressed most vigorously in support of the law, that its individual mandate was justified by Congress’s power to regulate interstate commerce. The vote was again 5 to 4, but in this instance Chief Justice Roberts and the court’s four more conservative members were in agreement.
No the rub is all of the teeth in Obamacare is in the individual penalty which the SCOTUS ruled a tax, but
All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills. Origination Clause
which makes the SCOTUS ruling seem much less of a upholding and much more a mudding the waters. AHA is either constitional or unconstitutional depending on how you squint your eyes and twist your head. Seems the AHA is less likely to be struck down by the courts if enough people voluntarily opt-in.
Of course "Obamacare" looks almost exactly like "Romneycare" which was a Republican invention.
One difference is if I can't stand "Romneycare" I can move to Conneticut fairly easy, if I can't stand "Obamacare" moving to Australia is quite a bit more challenging.

All the above, except rather than GMOs I'd go with parents who wean their kids off baby formula in a botttle to Mountain Dew in a sippy cup.
