Schizophrenia means split personality, meaning a split between afect or expressed emtion and cognition or thought. So a person with Schizophrenia cannot connect emotion with thought. Not a good thing for a human being.
In fact there is no such thing as multipule personality disorder. They have never found a case study where the subject had no prioir knowdge of the movie "Two Faces of Eve."
You are wrong about this one. The problem with fossil fuels is that you are pulling the carbon is out of the "long carbon cycle," (volcanism, erosion, and subduction) and adding it the atmosphere. Generating C02 from plants and animals is using C02 that is already in the short carbon cycle incurs no long term gain in green house gasses.
One shell does not a weapon of MASS destruction make. That would be "asymmetrical warfare" in the current lingo.
It is also not unexpected, there were WMD in Iraq no doubt about it. That shell might have been picked up off the ground in Kurdistan or Southern Iraq as unexploded ordinance and held buy an individual for years. It wouldn't even have to be functioning for someone to strap some TNT to it to make it a weapon again.
The issue of WMD is not finding them, it is proving that they were a direct threat to people living inside the United States of America. Lots of people have WMD and we haven't attacked them. The justification for Iraq was that a) Iraq had them in quantity and more importantly b) Saddam was WILLING to use them against U.S. Civilians populations within the 'homeland.' Which is patently absurd because it is suicidal. Al-Qaeda can attack us because we can't hit em back, a mist of vapors against a giant. Iraq attacking us is like a lunatic attack an insane asylum with a banana. As proved by how our military overwhelmed the Iraq mainline defenses in days.
The real problem is that we lingered and now we are once again lost in the mist. So the war was based on lies and stupidity and followed through with stupidity. Not a good idea in the Middle East, as our president would know if he could or did read.
Ah wait! I know how to save it. Get Chris Cunningham to direct it. And get Neal Stephenson to write the script.
I deeply fear that Ep3 will END with Annie putting on the Mask to become Vader. Does anyone even know if James Earl Jones is on the payroll for Ep.3 If he's not be VERY afraid.
Ep. 2 WASN'T better, it was object oriented programming. He used the drag and drop approach to build a mediocrity.
Once again no one on Slashdot is talking about the truth of the situation. Lukas is getting you to pay for a paradigm shift to digital movie making. All he needs is for the movie to be good enough to cover costs. He could probably write off the cost as R&D anyway because that's what he's doing. He is doing a proof of concept for all digital filmmaking. He is not telling a story, He is not making a movie, and he is definitely not making art of any kind.
Lukas a long ago admitted that StarWars is Akria Kurosawa'a "Hidden Fortress."
Here's how to save it. Vader kills so many people on a ship that's he's knee deep in blood, a la Snow Crash.

Biodiesel is not the answer. We are the only country in the world changing farm land into forest land. In order to make enough seed crop to fill our needs we would have to re-convert all that land and more into crops again. This causes a whole host more problems. Then once we have the land what do we grow? Soybeans? Major nitrogen hog. Oops.
CWT's Turkey guts is a FAR beeter answer esp. if we use all the carbon, human bodies, shit, ag waste, tires, lawn clippings etc. Put one of the plants on every major sewer, land fill and etc.
I agree on the Suburbia thing.
The REAL answer is less people. 250 million human population and we can burn whatever we want.
You aren't that bright are you? Moller's engines are VERY
low emmsion. In fact they complete with Honda 4 stroke LEV engines but have a power to weit ratio that matches a Rotax 2 stroke. The motors that power the Skycar should be in every JetSki, Snowmobile, Ultralight/Microlight, and any other highpower low weight application. Hell these things should be powering hybrid gas electric cars for that matter.
Just as much as you would need a large fast plane that frops a huge amount of water you also need planes that can pick up water locally and fly VERY slowly.
My biggest concern with this system is turn around time.
60 countries? How many sent troops? How many sent troops in any meaningfull numbers? How many of those were looking for entry into NATO at the time? With a few simple stipulations you get 3, UK, Spain, and Poland. WOW HUGE NUMBERS!
And the war is unjustifable. No WMD, no terrorist links, no threat to America, and don't even fucking start on the Nation Building freedom shit becasue that IS A BALD FACED LIE. The only threat appears once we have stepped into the quagmire. Thanks to the Vulcans and groupthink we are going to blow 100 billion on raising the value of Cheney's stock options in Halliburton.
"Let me see if I can reconstruct your thinking.... The President says, "Bring it on," the terrorists come out of hiding to attack, at which point we kill as many as 60 a day, and the President is a traitor?"
Yes, yes he is. You can "explain" why he did it, or what it might or might not have achived as much as you want but the truth to wholly contained in what he said. He invited attacks on U.S. Troops.
Why not use vending machines instead? Have a rfid taped to your shoe, stand on a paltform and have the thing dispense drinks. You'd save a shitload on packaging alone by having the booze come in mylar bags. Most of bartending is robotic anyway.
Dieter Wulf's article in The Atlantic Magazine shows a picture (not on the web) of a Wunderwaffen or Nazi "miracle weapon" that looks exactly like the White Knight Space Ship One combo. Not to knock Burt Rutan or anything, but it goes to show the German war machine did some serious thought. What's interesting is that they current thoery on the plane was to fly it into US buildings.
It is reasonable to call Rove treasonous and compare Bush to Hitler.
Bush's STATED philosophy of 'comunitarianism' is highly correlated with fascism when compared with semiotic analysis. The Bush family ARE Nazi war profiteers and benefited from slave labor during WWII. Bush uses unjustifiable unilateral military operations to increase shareholder value for his political contributors. Bush uses racial scapegoats to polarize the population.
So why is it a Troll to point these out? The people responding with a knee jerk "NO!" are deluding themselves, are directly profiting from the administration's gross mismanagement or are simply weak minded sheep who cannot differentiate patriotism from adherence to the ideology of those who would undermine the constitution.
Bush is traitorous. The "Bring it on" comment was without a doubt the ONLY time in U.S. History a president has INVITED attacks on members of the U.S. Army.
Rove (or Scooter "Libby,") might be traitorous. Outing a CIA operative undermines our war on terror and endangers the lives of other operatives and informants.
Read "Rise of the Vulcans." It covers the members of the war cabinet. Also please remeber that the neo-conservatives started out a democrates and were highly influenced by Jean Kirkpatrick. You remeber Bill the Cat's crush?
Also replace "hive-mind" with groupthink and you're on a better track. Is it just me or is the bay of pigs a better model for Iraq than Vietnam?
I couldn't agree more, there are some pretty small mice out there too. 50% of the reason I HATE consoles is the lack of the mouse. Give this thing a WASDF, Spacebar, CTRL, ALT and a mouse and I'd be more likely to think about it. Basically as I see it this thing is perfect for Halflife, Natural-Selection, CS, pick up games.
I for one welcome our Spanish overlords. Did you know the acording to the article call ed "1491" in the Atlantic the population of Europe and the New World we about equal before the Spainish arrived and killed off at recent estimate... 400 million native people. Hmmmmm... Nazi's and Stalinist Russia both in a serious second place on the genocide count. Granted the U.S. made some additions to that figure and we all know that smallpox did most of the heavy lifting but still its a good number to keep in your head.
As a Welshman I see a great and wonderful bond between Catalan and Wales. Both see to have similar strange sounding many double L'd languages and both are subject to ex-rule the world type countries. Now if I can just get Oregon, Washinton, Northern California, Alaska and British Columbia to form our own Country, but what would we call it... Columbia is taken, Pacifica is a car's name, I know Cascadia!
