The real market price is different in England vs Croatia.
But why is this the case? Why is Croatian labor less valuable than English labor? Does the difference arise from ocean proximity or from proficiency in the language of the economically powerful United States?
Why do you think income inequality should be fought by first forcing consumer prices to be the same instead of making income equal?
Imagine Amazon selling a product in California at higher prices just because we manage our economy better than Alabama? People in Alabama should ascribe and work to a better life like a Californian.
There's also this thing called the law of conservation of energy. You're consuming one form of energy to store another, and doing it inefficiently at that..plant.trees.
You don't even understand his point. He's not proposing to make charcoal as a form of energy, but to sequester the CO2 in the trees. Because just planting trees only delays the problem a few decades until the tree tree is grown, then it will die and release all that CO2 again.
This sort of infantile behavior is the stock play we see over and over again from governmental agencies that are in danger of not getting as much money as they would prefer.
In response to the infantile behaviour of the Republicans who shut down government in 2013 because they didn't et what they wanted, with nobody getting any money. The same Republicans who still can't get what they really, really want: to repeal Obamacare. Preparing for the hissy fits of childish Republicans is not childish.
Quit pretending that one party is better than the other
Stop pretending both parties are equally bad. Republicans are worse in every way. And the "independent" parties all have major flaws too. And the real independents who won't get into any of those parties are even worse - why would the other parties not accept them.
"Hydroxl" is just the American version of "hydro".
Actually, it's the typo version of "hydroxyl. Or rather EditorDavid's version of hydroxyl (as it is spelled throughout the actual summary text as submitted, but neither in the headline nor his mini-lede).
Friday is the day the current federal stopgap funding bill expires. The EPA apparently worried that Congress wouldn't pass a new continuing resolution to fund the government, and preemptively planned to end the Open Data service, according to the contractor managing the site, 3 Round Stones in Arlington, Virginia.

Ok. Clearly you need more evidence, so why don't you look at the webcast of their meeting.
Fast-forward to 47:22, and see the lady asking the crowd to pick which cards should be turned over, and then she gets annoyed because nobody gives a shit about her triangles.
Tell me how that helps improving forensics science. This is merely a bunch of people having their 10 minutes of babbling on the record with zero value for the taxpayers.
Somehow I suspect that if that commission had been created by Republicans you'd be the first to denounce it.
You haven't seen the wankery that was the Gorsuch confirmation hearings, have you. And just for the record: she's trying to teach the scientific method to morons like you. Thanks for proving how much you hate science.
NIST and the Department of Justice (DOJ) shall establish a National Commission on Forensic Science to advise the agencies participating in the unified federal research strategy and review recommendations on standards development in forensic science.
You can't have it both ways. Don't call it "war on science" when the commission is not renewed, while most the commission recommendations are about giving ammunition to the defense.
Well, let's ignore that most of the people in that commission are (or rather were) forensic scientists - do you claim this isn't a "war on science" because it actually is a war on justice and the rights of US citizens? Fine by me.
That seems to be the gist of the summary. Two different reports, one counts Chromebook as PCs show mild growth. Another that did not count Chromebook showed continued decline. The headline seems to suggest somehow Chromebooks are boosting the sales of PCs.
<sarcasm>Considering the total including Chromebooks is lower than the one without - obviously Chromebooks lower PC sales </sarcasm>
I first had a quick look at the members of that commission. When I saw that one was in the "National College of DUI Defense" and another was on the board of a foundation that "seeks to reduce over-incarceration", I kinda suspected that the output of that commission would not be new gadgets for CSI Miami, but rather a long list of things the cops shouldn't be allowed to use in court.
So? And the fact that one of the co-chairs is "a Deputy Assistant Administrator for the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA)", one member is " elected Sheriff of St. Charles Parish", one is " Division Director (civilian Chief) for the Los Angeles County Sheriff Department’s Technology and Support Division." (which comes up to three, one more than the two you listed) somehow didn't give you the impression that law enforcement personnel dominates that panel because...? And I was too bored to search for more more law enforcers, and completely ignored the prosecutors. Just because all it took to prove your political bias were those three.
Sessions isn't "dismantling" anything. The commission was created in 2013 and was supposed to do its job by 2017. It apparently has done that, Sessions has thanked them. The Trump administration is now deciding what to do next.
Calling this "ordering the Justice Dept. to end forensic science commission" or "dismantling forensic science commission", as if Trump or Sessions had taken extraordinary steps to kill the commission, is tendentious, politically motivated b.s. that reflects badly on the Washington Post and the submitter.
Errrm. Yes, and, no, and no, and no. Yes, it was created in 2013 and yes, it was due for termination in 2017. But that would be it's second termination after its first renewal, and there was supposed to be a another renewal hearing. https://www.justice.gov/ncfs/file/624216/download
11. Termination:
The Commission's termination date is two years from the date this Charter is filed with Congress, and is subject to renewal in accordance with Section 14 of FACA.
And more importantly: it wasn't "supposed to do its job by 2017". The charter clearly says: "10. Duration: The period of time necessary for the Commission to carry out its purpose is indefinite"
Most didn't but "Disagreements between crime lab practitioners and defense community representatives on the commission had reduced it to 'a think tank,' yielding few accomplishments and wasted tax dollars" did.
Of course that's what the people say who have the most to lose from good scientific forensics: prosecutors out for an easy conviction, actual guilt optional.
So you admit this wasn't "not renewed" because it was no longer needed, it was dismantled because it wasn't wanted. Because too many innocents went free.
They are saying you could replace it with one that records the data from the sensor and then replays it later at the attackers whim. Making and using a jelly finger is a much better, easier, cheaper and more covert attack vector and so you are correct that the excuse is bull for the real reason of stopping people replacing commonly failing parts in their electronic devices without paying the corporate overlords their cut.
Sure. But for the jelly finger you need a good, clean print of the correct finger, several hours of work, and the right tools (like everything used to make your own printed circuit boards), Which is why we hear of people doing that all the time - in fantasies written by Apple haters, or by hardware repair industry lobbyists.
While the "record" strategy would always work, much faster, always the same way. In the case of the hardware repair industry while the customer pays for it.
> If you can replace the fingerprint scanner, you can trick the phone into giving you access.
No? Your fingerprint isn't stored in the home button. Replace that shit all you want.
So instead put a device between the home button and the chip the fingerprint is stored in. Log what the finger print sensor sends to that chip. Then re-send that on command when you want access to the device.

to sequester the CO2 in the trees
You're not getting it. It takes energy to do this
That's not what we were talking about. Disqualified for goalpost shifting. Suck it up, you tree hugger.
Says the guy who never planted enough trees to even out his CO2 footprint even for a couple of decades.
California Conservation Corps 1990/91 Also certified in Landscape Construction and planted / landscaped for 5 years after that.
*Suck it*
And yet you failed at evening out your CO2 footprint - because your fucking "solution" sucks as bad as you do. Thanks for proving my point.

Maybe Google didn't spend more but spent less? Dunno, you read the story and tell us...
Yeah, they spent $60,000 less. And no, that's not in the story.

Didn't you get the memo? Forcing women to cover their bodies and violence against gays is now liberal. It's a mixed up world.
Yeah, because Reagan was a Liberal. He certainly wouldn't have a chance in today's GOP. It really is a mixed up world.

You will have to wait tho, as there are currently real commissions authorized by congress in session.

Is there something that the commission hasn't taken a position on that they should have? If not, they are no longer needed.
Did you bother to parse your own claim before you posted? Or did you just try to bullshit your way through this?
So you admit this wasn't "not renewed" because it was no longer needed, it was dismantled because it wasn't wanted. Because too many innocents went free.
Take a look, Indonesia and Australia are only 186 nautical miles apart.
Yeah, but the the two reefs are over 2000 miles apart
China has over 4x the population of the USA. They emit less than half the carbon per capita of the USA.
Not only that, China is working on reducing their CO2 output. Trump is working on increasing it massively.
They might not be good players but at least there are a multitude to choose from.
it doesn't matter they are all shit, at least there's a whole lot of shit.
