Bill Nye (along with Al Gore) got caught faking a experiment to "prove" climate change - the results were totally not reproducible in any way and the footage he had was cut to make it look like it proved his claim (google "bill nye fake experiment" to see it exposed). Since then, I don't see why anyone listens to the guy. He's Bill Nye The Propaganda Guy
It seems every time there's 'proof' of man made global warming, the data is cooked, the experiments are not reproducible, the predictions don't materialize. Not sure how that state of affairs became the standard of "science".
Google "Irish Twins" genius, having 2 kids in one 12 month period is possible and happens. Maybe you should take a turn through elementary biology again, see if it sticks this time.
I hope this is being modded insightful (I have no mod points!). Just knock out a couple of kids a year, easy to do with 2 or 3 female partners and even easier if you are female, and you can be the modern version of a welfare queen/king. Go full Dugger and you may never work again.
I worked for a small consulting company in the mid-1990's that was a huge Netware shop. They used to demonstrate the new Windows NT OS by putting on a performance monitor and then moving the mouse back and forth quickly to show CPU cycles being consumed. These dipshits would laugh and laugh while telling customers and potential customers how the GUI had no place in modern business computing and this was the proof. I recall being pretty embarrassed to be in the same room with them. Not long after, we had a company meeting where the owner told us this "internet thing" was a fad that would die off soon so we did not need to develop any strategy around it. I got out of there as fast as I could. Idiots.
This is exactly wrong. It's either pay up or shut up, customers. If you artificially increase the cost of doing business, business owners will have to increase their revenues to cover that cost. That means that you, the customer, will be charged more to cover it.
If you want human service staff, be prepared to pay the premium for that. Some people, like you, will desire it and to get that kind of personal, custom service, won't be as cheap as what you can get from a machine.
I like the original content push - it seems NetFlix is more willing to be original and take some chances rather than create yet another "CSI" or "Law and Order" or just some stupid hospital based soap opera. Not all the original content is great but it's mostly pretty solid with some standouts. I hope they continue to embrace original content. The back catalog stuff is sometimes interesting but mostly stuff I've already seen, it's a dead end.
I've really been getting into international shows. "The Almighty Johnsons", "Wentworth", "Happy Valley" are all excellent.
It's odd. I am constantly reminded about the "evil, racist, police" that kill people with impunity and am also constantly reminded that, in order to be safe, the only people that should possess a gun are police.
It's a total scam because, like federal courts, the IRS does not robocall you about payment and threaten you to pay immediately. You get a letter in the mail, just like they did in 1950's.
In a recent job interview my employer conducted, the lack of online activity was considered a red flag for the interviewee. We did not hire him for a few reasons and that was, in fact, one of the reasons. Of course, we did not tell him that nor even imply it.
It really doesn't matter how much compelling evidence continues to pile up that global warming is an imminent threat, deniers will continue to deny. If I believed in an afterlife, I would sincerely hope that those choosing inaction would spend eternity hearing the cries of the billions who will suffer as a consequence. But there will be no such luck.
"Some studies suggest that decreased heat flux of warm Atlantic waters could lead to a recovery of all Arctic sea ice in the near future," said NSIDC senior research scientist Julienne Stroeve.
Ice very well may come back, and soon. Spare us the hysterics.
I've never once wished it could be "easier" by bringing a phone into the mix.
Try a remote start on a cold winter day from the comfort of your bed or as you prepare to leave the office. Car is warm and ready to go. It's pretty nice.
2016 Jeep, the app on my phone will start the car and unlock the doors - all via wifi connection. Bluetooth unlocks the doors as I approach and touch the door handle (driver or passenger side).
The turnaround was difficult but Mayer has botched it pretty badly. Questionable hires for millions - that quickly left the company after nothing accomplished, media investments that make little sense - Couric? Really?, and acquisitions that have proven time and again to be bad investments. With Mayer at the helm, Yahoo's value declined to the point that it was actually negative but for the AliBaba stock. Spin off that stock, and Yahoo is worthless, literally. She's been a train wreck.
1. That climate always changes doesn't mean it changes so radically and so quickly.
2. There are no lack of other sources of energy. Hydrocarbons are hardly the only solution.
3. There are other ways to produce plastics and similar materials.
So what we really have here is you posting patently false things as if they were true.
1. It has changed just as radically and quickly before, there is nothing new here. Learn a little history.
2. No, but they are the best we have and a huge infrastructure is in place to support it. Proven reserves in North America alone will last at least another 100 years.
3. And they all suck compared to petroleum based and in no way viable on the scale needed.
So what we really have here is you posting patently obvious bullshit only remotely related to reality.
I wish that I had read a few of these and had kept my points going. U should be marked down to a troll. Dr Hansen suffers the same issue that Obama does: far right wingers like you call them polarizing for doing their jobs. Neither Obama nor Hansen have been polarizing. It is you far right wing nut jobs that turn it into such because you refuse to simply look at the data and then you claim that they are the problem.
"looking forward to meeting and hearing directly from the Cuban people."
He can't be that stupid. Can he?
He's going to hear from a carefully selected Potemkin village of people who fear for their lives and freedom if they say anything less than glowing things about life in Cuba.
He's not that stupid, he knows damn well this will be the case. He is, however, that ideologically driven. The image matters way more than the truth.

These flights actually started under Bush.
So? Does that actually mean something to you somehow, after continuing these for the last 7+ years after Bush left office?
I had thought about that episode as well. Being able to track you everywhere and also *everywhen* is quite the feat.
Why is the modded down? It's all the facts, not the feel good hyperbole.

Constant exposure to propaganda is necessary so that it become something "everybody knows is true" and so generally accepted that nobody questions it.
I've never once wished it could be "easier" by bringing a phone into the mix.

I think you meant Tina Fey. Bizarre how propaganda flows into even the most insignificant areas of your life.

Did your parents have any kids that lived?
Just asking ... what is James Hansen's track record for accuracy with climate predictions? If it's egregiously off, *why* are we paying any attention?
Of course this is modded down. Pointing out the emperor has now clothes is forbidden.
