People may believe its 'trusted', but that doesn't change the simple fact that TV News is BIG BIG business, and totally controlled..
Yeah exactly, I mean how many people know how many planes there really were? More then 4 that's for sure. It was five for awhile on radio and television but no one thinks to record them. Luckily I had seen much of my information on the net and so when the government changed the story to 4 planes I could go back into my cache and look at the flight numbers of the 5 planes and the source and destinations for each of them (which I had looked up at aa.com and usair.com) It's amazing how flight 175 and flight 75 became one flight.
Actually, it did have lyrics...they just sucked.
Gene MoMoney Roddenberry felt that he needed more cash than he had., Alex Courage (who wrote the theme music) was set to recieve royalties every time the music played. Good ole Gene couldn't not have a part of that, so he penned the lyrics, thereby assuring 50 percent of the royalties. Gee, what a swell guy. Read about it here at snopes:
Its a bit simple minded to believe that the 'decline' in education is attributed to any one factor. True, but it is generally accepted that children usually adapt the attitudes of those around them
while they are impressionable.
Yes American students perform worse on tests the children of other countries, but those countries have the some exact (well not exact) problems as us. It's not about the Test scores, (any one will tell you they're not valid indicators of intelligence) but the fear of science itself.I mean just look at the debate going on with stem cell research. Not one piece of science has ever been brought into this debate.Some people are just afraid of science. This continues with computers. The rate at which people are getting signed up for the Internet who haven't before as greatly slowed, as people who are almost afraid of the technology.
They have kept students learning at a high level through good pay for teachers, extra school, more money for school, and a thousand other things.Teachers are better today then they were 50 years ago because of the development of better teacher methods. As anyone who has taken an intro college class knows, the professor can know every on the topic, but unless they know how to communicate that, they are worthless as teachers. Elementary, middle, and high school teachers take hundreds of hours of classes whose only point is to teach them how to communicate information. Very true, and that is the point. Their spending so much time learning how to communicate things they're not learning what they need to be communicating.
It is one thing not to know but another to be afraid. One thing hit upon in the article is that people become under the impression that they are not able to learn the hard sciences. In elementary school, you don't necessarily need a teacher who has all of the answer but at least has the ability to look for them. So that when a child asks a question the teacher can go well I don't know, but lets find out. And then turn to a resource perhaps the 'Internet')than will allow the teacher to explain (simply) the answer to the student's question and furthermore to teach the student how to learn on their own.

An antichrist is a person who does not believe the bible (old testament only).
How is one come about the term antichrist, if they only believe the old testament?
Yeah what is that suppose to mean? It would seem to mean that according to the old testament (and not new) we would apply this defination. Perhaps it's just a statement that no Jew thinks Jesus was the messiah. (Don't give me anythign about Jews for Jesus, it's just a fancy was of saying Christian). Perhaps more than anything it could be saying how Jesus wasn't Christ based on the old testament. Remember the dead were suppose to rise, world peace would come about. Oh well, I mod the entire artical down as being offtopic for/. but I supose it's fun to have a digression every once in a while.
Let's say that a collection of local business owners complain to the restaurant owner about a specific list of hoodlums who've been using the restaurant to discuss extortion plans. The restaurant owner then proceeds to ban everyone one that list from the restaurant. However, the restaurant owner then allows back in the restaurant anyone who signs a statement ("I promise I'm not discussing extortion in the back of your restaurant.") or anyone who makes even the most superficial pretenses at pretending to be someone else ("I'm not Bob. I'm his evil twin, Ted. See? I've got this realistic looking mustache.").
But that's not where we want thing going, that results in a totalatarian state. If those thugs really are commiting crimes (even minor ones) and the people they commit crimes against have their names then it's merely up to the police to arrest them. They can talk anywhere. Freedom of Assembly.
Now if the police walk in and ask have you seen this man? Then you are obligated to say yeah I've seen them here before, usually sit in the back. And that's about it. Now you may not want these guys to be coming back in your store after learning about this, for one reason or another. (You fear they may not pay or cause you harm, or you don't want to police coming into your place and distrubing other custormers.) But otherwise (esp if they pay) it's bad business to kick them out, and I don't think you have a legal obligation to. I mean really, should it be true that if you commit a crime you can be in a public place.
The only real obgliatino you may have is if they talk too loud and can here they plans, you may want to tell them that this isn't the best place to talk about it.
Oh you can't use logic to try to convince Creationists of anything, that's the whole point.
They already have want they want, they know the answer and their just trying to make facts fit. Where as in science we take the best theory that fits the current fact and as out facts change so do our theoies (Newtonian Physics to Einsteinian Physics for instance).
Of course the other problem with Creationists is that they only think science is crazy in this reguard and freely accept our rather crazy ideas of light and radation. They still use microwaves.

Best explainion I ever heard was that they were trying to not be suspicious and blend into the humans for an easier time confusing them. Yeah it doesn't quite work but better than interbreeding with the Romulans.
According to The Star Trek Encyclopedia, A Reference Guide to teh Future (3rd Edition), The timeline shows,
2156: Romulan Wars begin between Earth forces and the Romulan Star Empire.
2160: Romulan Wars ended by the Battle of Cheron. The Romulan Neutral Zone is established.
2161: The United Federation of Planets is incorporated.
So I suppose it could take place durning these events and have the war with the Romulans, (as suggested before they could represent the Chinese). This would be before the UFP so the uniforms could easy not have the mini-skirts (which I'm sure they'll try to get out of) and could make for an interesting 7 year series, though I hope they only do 5.
My question is, what ARE the byproducts of this process, and are they radioactive? Would a drive based on this process wind up spitting out a radioactive plume? If so, NO THANKS.
Small amounts of radiation over a large area has no effect. Even in such quantities that will be put out by such a system, and even in such a deadly form, being put out over the Earth's atmosphere will have no effect on Earth. It's just to spread out to do any damage. Radiation needs to be concentrated to do any damage.

Yes, but most people don't read /. so such blantant lies are usually gotten away with, and most people eat them up and take them as truth.
