"Evolution" is one thing. Teaching that men and monkeys had common ancestors is another. You can believe in the process without believing in a specific start point.
I like the RF detector part. Have it trigger a ear-piercing fire-alarm type device that would make it impossible to carry on a conversation. The other inmates will start beating the shit out of the guy with the phone for setting off "that damn alarm" again. No legal phone outside the prison gets jammed. Phones inside the prison are useless. And anyone trying to use one will be easily identified by the bloody clothes.
Shows the lack of imagination in most politicians, doesn't it? Campaign on reducing crime and lowering spending by tying the prison payouts recividism rates. Get the Tea Party and Conservative vote in one swing.
[Boop-beep!] "Hello, who just joined?" "Jimmy, "The Jacker", Sanderson. Is this the "Crime Scene Cleanup Review Committee" meeting? "Jimmy, that meeting is held on Thursdays. This is the "Sleeping with the Fish Lessons Learned" meeting." "Sorry." [Beep-boop!]
And it is somehow wrong to encourage the idea of peace?
No. But peace doesn't come about because of flowery speeches. It requires understanding, intuition and skill to bridge the worldview of warring factions. It requires sacrifice and a willingness to endure oppression to expose corrupt governments.
Obama did nothing that would qualify. He continues to do nothing, and in fact has arguably been one of the most divisive Presidents this country has ever know.
I don't know the details, but the police acted stupidly. Elections have consequences. Republicans can't drive. They have to ride in the back.
As President, sometimes your first job is to shut the hell up. Seldom has this man availed himself of that opportunity.
They "honestly wondered" that? Really? Bush ran for office in 2004 instead of declaring an emergency, and then allowed the 2008 campaigns to proceed, and yet "a lot of people" wondered that he might muscle his way into remaining in office?
What sort of acid trips are they taking over at the Huffington Post?
I would wonder if they disabled background services like DHCP. That would be something that I would expect Apple to try to completely hide from the user.
It was supposed to be. The sad part is that you can't tell in today's environment. Anyone that raises issues with his policies is eventually labeled a racist.
They affect extremely short term memory around here. It seems all the females forget that they're driving when they bring the phones close to their heads.
I know when I briefly live with a hot friend that I have very lucid dreams while sleeping in her bed. I don't think it has anything to do with the magnets.
Wait a minute. This is/. I must have been dreaming.
So on the one hand you are claiming a detailed knowledge of one aspect of the process, and on the other claiming a deep ignorance of it. That kind of thing sets off the bullshit detector in most people's minds pretty loudly.
That would be YOUR goal for education. And mine, also, just for the record.
The goal of education to the Federal government is another point of control. There is no point to the Dept. of Education. This country excelled just fine until it was created in 1970. Even then, it was declared insane to take money from citizens, launder it through a Federal bureaucracy and then hand it back to the states. The local government taxes me for schools. The state taxes me for schools. The fed taxes me for schools. Each has a separate bureaucracy to handle the collection and distribution of that money. And yet, the schools are still teaching essentially the same facts they were teaching 75 years ago, just with added layers of bureaucracy to handle the mandates that change every time we elect a new President.
I was thinking the same thing. Worse still that he juxtaposed the two. Of course, you alway have to love commentators looking down their noses at "immature politicians", while calling them "nutty".
Here, a local talk radio host was making these compassionate and heartfelt calls for civility in public discourse, and to support his point he called on none other that the Master of Civility himself, Howard Stern, who went on a diatribe calling Sarah Palin stupid. It made my brain hurt.
Yes I am. Xplane. And I'm trying to wind my way through the benchmarks to build a new system that will handle Xplane 10, which will (reportedly) scale much better with improved hardware.

the criteria you use for "war criminal" would indite every modern leader of a country that ever went to war.
Bush was just an EXTREMELY mediocre President.
Then every organic farmer before Gore should have qualified.

The world was tired of the Bush administration and their pro-war foreign policy
Including the parts of the Muslim world that was encouraging (begging?) Bush to do something about Iraq? We learned about that through the Wikileaks.
and what actions would those have been? Saying that he would invade Pakistan if he thought Bin Laden was hiding out there?
No. Not everyone did. Nearly half of the people that actually voted thought it was bad enough of an idea to actually show up at the polls and say so.

Is that a "weapon of mass disgusting" or "weapon of mass digesting"?
How about a cure for low grades or "the boss want me to learn the new software/hardware platform and have it rolled out tomorrow"?

I so wish that were true.

no CFO gives a presentation without slides showing the information and references to back it up
Unless the CFO is actively trying to pass off a lie.
And there's your answer.
Rickroll. Pffft! Man, he definitely needs a goatse!
you must be a racist, too.
