Many seed that are probably part of Mice traditional evolutionary food supply are very high in fat content, a high density energy source is necessary for many seeds to germinate and establish themselves and that is exactly what fats are. Our brains are hard-wired to crave certain types of foods, fatty-salty foods and sweet foods, Fritos corn chips have almost the exact combination of fat and salt to elicit this, almost addictive response.
The problem with Gitmo was a system of lawless detention for prisoners held without rights.
No the Problem is the prisoners at Gitmo are civilian combatants, historically they would have received summary execution, no questions asked. They are not afforded the protections under the Geneva Conventions that a uniformed combatant of a nation state would receive, even if they were they would be held until belligerency has concluded are they have excepted an offered pardon. They represent no Nation State which might conclude belligerency.
The only people saying sceptics thought there was no connection were Cook and Lewandowski in their ridiculous consensus surveys. The real questions aren't if, but how much; and that is still a matter of "emerging science" right now.
I think the torture thing has died a well deserved death. It's one of those things that sound like something you would want to have available to you in Dire circumstances, but the reality is it's not effective. After the talk with Mad Dog I think he's convinced, no torture. The reality is when you torture a person, most often they dig in their heels and never say anything, when you simply ask a question and shut up until they answer, they almost always do. The only way torture ever works is if you can turn it into a version of "Good Cop-Bad Cop", and there are better ways to do that.
Suckers? I didn't vote for his pathetic ass. I think that it's a bad day for the United States when the bar has literally fallen to the point where they found someone stupider than George W. Bush to be president.
Man I just don't understand the need of Liberals to vilify everyone they dislike or disagree with; that's a big part of why you got your asses handed to you this election. Why is it you have to label anyone who doesn't have George Soros's hand up their ass as some form of Evil(Tm) incarnate? It's hard for people you are actively trying to marginalize to feel cooperative to your agenda.
Want a hint, if you're going to try to convince someone of the validity of your Global Warming arguments, start by Not calling them names that are a vague reference to Neo-nazism. Then follow up with a plan that doesn't include collectivist wealth redistribution. It would also help a Climate Politburo didn't jet-set all over the world to climate conferences on money that was supposed to be spent on the environment.
Seriously when did you ever hear anybody say "I am having a heart attack -please get me anybody who is NOT a doctor !"
I've heard people saying "Don't take me to that hospital where heart attack patients die from MRSA infections"; and I've had a granddaughter who was discharged from the Port Huron Hospital ER with a diagnosis of "Nothing Wrong" only to be taken directly to intensive care at a Children's Hospital of Detroit.
A no we didn't enter into any Paris accord, President Obama entered into the Accord and when he leaves it's over; in the US the President negotiates treaties, but the Senate ratifies them. All Paris did was enable the World to continue business as usual, i.e. China and India will continue to increase CO2 emission and the US, EU will continue their self flagellation to reduce CO2 emissions.
Fly ash is primarily silicates from the plant material the was made into coal. When it is added to Portland Cement, it increases the strength over other silicate like silica sand because it is much finer and porous, additionally the silicates react chemically with CO2 removing it from the atmosphere over time, about 42% of the CO2 used in making the cement to begin with.
LOL. The link you referenced explicitly disproves the myth you claim.
I don't understand are you referring to 30GT of anthropogenic CO2 being a myth or
801GT from natural sources being a myth or
30/801 being less than 0.04 is a myth or 4% being miniscule?
No the graphs the parent linked to showed 4 million square kilometres of ice lost in one month, actually it was the same month the satellite’s sensor crapped out.
Fox News pretty much gets the same stories off the wire as all the others do. The biggest differences is the commentary, followed by what they lead with.
538 simply performed a statistical analysis of the polls. They gave Trump around a 30% chance of winning and wrote multiple stories emphasizing that it wasn't a done deal. They were not "wrong".
If you know anything about statistics, you would know that simply due to the sampling sizes of the polls being "analysed", the best they could do is blowing smoke up people's asses. Being right by accident doesn't make you a statistician.
All the major new outlets are guilty of publishing opinion pieces as if they're real news. Maybe not totally made-up fake, but just as bad.
Worse because it's plausibly correct and masquerading as fact on an outlet that's professionally operated. At least when something is attributed to some Alt-right echo chamber with a "30 hot teachers that had sex with their students" ad at the bottom, you know to be sceptical.
Funny you should use British examples, I've read something written by Christopher Monchton, and I always have to look some of the words up in a dictionary, to make sure I am understanding them correctly, I suspect that many Blacks in the US can't read the works of Martin Luther King, even with a High School diploma.
Why can't their parents take some personal responsibility? If someone is dumb compared to their parents and grandparents, why aren't the parents and grandparents taking responsibility for their failures?
You would think, that because there was a time when parents actually educated their kids that it would continue. Public education gave everyone a common base to learn from and parents would enrich from their own unique skills and knowledge. Years ago an immigrant family would be bilingual, now they barely speak 2 half languages.
Snopes is like Wikipedia, when you get into highly controversial topical issue there's a lot of "there be Dragons Here". They do a lot of discussion on peripheral points then declare something mostly false. Another site that's gone over to the dark-side is Charity Navigator, they had de-listed the Clinton Foundation due to an non-understandable business plan, the two weeks later give them 5 stars after they became part of the Clinton Foundation.
I chalk it up to the education system, things went downhill fast when philosophy became a four letter word, without logic and epistemology rigorous thought is impossible.
When the northern hemisphere graph show a 4 million square kilometers of Ice melting and the sun only puts out enough heat to melt an 1/8th of that on the whole planet, either the data is wrong or some Ant-Bully is holding a magnifying glass on the North Pole! OK I made up the 1/8th part for theatrical effect, but it is probably closer to being right than being wrong.
Those graphs are wonky, Charctic Interactive Sea Ice Graph at Nation Snow and Ice Data Center doesn't show anything like that when you shift between Arctic and Antarctic graphs. Your graph show the arctic gaining so much ice it's off the chart and the antarctic shows the opposite.
Here in South Africa the latest research suggests coal power costs R1.20 per Mw/H (that's without factoring in cost-overruns, construction delays, interest on loans during construction delays, any externalities - in other words it's an absolute best case scenario price)... solar comes in at about 62c per mw/h - half the price - and that's ACTUAL cost since construction is so much simpler that overruns are extremely rare to non-existent.
well I think you might have gotten your Megas and millis confused
At the time of this writing, the installed cost of solar panels was between $7-$9 per watt: A 5 kW system would cost around $25,000-$35,000. Many utility companies offer incentives, and some subsidize as much as 50% of system costs. Even at half the cost, though, a system that generates an average $75 of electricity per month could take a long time to pay for itself. How Much Does it Cost to Install Solar on an Average US House?
Solar makes sense in a lot of places, not where I am at. We do a lot of wind and that wind power is distributed from Michigan to New York.
Global CO2 emissions will stop when the fossil fuels are all extracted from the ground, not a moment sooner.
Global carbon emissions are around 801Gt, of which 30Gt are anthropogenic, and the 30Gt is divided between fossil fuel burning and land use changes, so humans account for slightly less than 4% of CO2 emissions. Therefore any change when fossil fuels run out will be minuscule, likewise any change due to reducing CO2 emissions from burning fossil fuels will be even less effective. Considering the Earth has a solar cross-section of 3.16991481822e+13 m^2, solar Total solar irradiance is 1361 w/m^2 and the radiative imbalance is 1.5 w/m^2; we would only have to shade 34,834,228.771.7m^2, we're about as likely to build a solar shade that big as we are to reduce CO2 emissions enough to make a difference.

I'm not sure that Congress has done that in a while, aren't we still on basically an 8 or 10 year old budget now?

You have to feel for Trump voters. He is pretty much flip flopping on every one of the reasons they voted for him.
He still not Hillary.
