You have to look at what sort of radio element are released and how it is going into human body. What was predominentely released in Fukushima for example, was AFAIR radio element of short half live, and most of it went into the ocean anyway. Tchernobyl had a lot more long lived element, but they mostly deposited on the ground, what you got in coal are very long lived element, *AND* they are released in region of inhabitation all the while in the atmosphere in a trickle. Which is why coal is thought to generate more respiratory problem and lung cancer than chernobyl ever was.
Drug war between opposite drug clan are relatively rare , and when they do happen they usually only impact seller, not buyer. This is a business you can only advertise by "mouth to ear" so most seller understand that if they screw up, their business will drop. That's why you get so many positive rating. In fact, you get a more likely good relation ship with your dealer to which you are a known face and source of money, than for an anonymous corporation for which you are a blimp in a statistic.
"In short, the very four digits that Amazon considers unimportant enough to display in the clear on the web are precisely the same ones that Apple considers secure enough to perform identity verification."
All industry standard I know of is to hide the 12 foremost digits with * and show the last 4 or 5 (yes better would be to hide all, but client might need to recognize the CC number for some reason). Who in their right mind would consider that secure ? Apple apparently.
You cannot eat *random* vegetable and be healthy. It is a scientific fact that not all vegetable have all amino acid and oligo element and you have to combine some. Meat as a *single source* cover it all. Vegetable do not. Sure you might be healthy because you took the habit , conscious or not, to feed from various vegetable source. But don't pretend that it is as easy as eating from a single source. That would be foolish. Sure it is not rocket science to mix vegetable source, but it is definitively harder than eating meat/fish.
You can subsitute meat with a variety of vegetable, which will cover your protein needs. The trick is that you have to be careful to make your choice complement each other or indeed you can go into some amino acid carrency.
So yeah, a steak or a semi hard choice of complement vegetable. Most people will take the easy way out and the meat. I certainly do. And there is a GOOD reason that for the average humain vegetable taste not as tasty as meat. A very good reason. Most vegetarian with their propaganda never really stops thinking too much about it.
We have enough evidence that changing the brain is changing the cosnciousness , thus this is suffisent to show the cosnciousness as emerging property of the brain. If you claim MORE like the brain only transmitting whatever information your soul transmit from somewhere else, or whatever bizare theory you have beside the actual science has, it is YOUR job to provide evidence for it. Good luck with that. Most of those theory are either not falsifiable, or provide no further explanation power and no difference to the accepted "consciouness is emerging property of brain". In other word, you can cut the cruft and keep the simplest explanation.
I wonder why you were modded interresting. You are attempting to shift the burden of proof of a claim onto others, whereas it should be the job of the one putting forth the claim to defend it.
Chromosome malformation. Brain retardement.
Brain Injury. (various, broca zone language impairment; visual blindness with intact eye ; memory problem; neuropathy ; alzheimer; personality changes with brain injury of special zones ; inability to recognize body as own) The simple fact that once pulse go below 40 or blood to brain go too low,you lose consciousness brain cancer
And I pass many others. Consciousness and brain are intimely linked. In fact there is ZEROevidence that we are anything else than a complex organic computer with multiple parallelism. Soul ? Afterlife ? ZERO evidence. Consciousness being the emerging process of the brain ? Plenty.
Her special line of cell of her is immortal. But Ms Lacks is dead for the concept of life we use. Indeed for a human to live , it needs a consciousness , a living brain, for all we know. My skin cell might suddenly decide to become immortal, and killing me with it if the cancer treatment don't work, but that would be the end of me , my memory, my logic reasonning, my emotion. All that would be left would be a few cell on a petri dish somewhere. For all purpose , for my family, my descendant, the whole human society I would be dead.
Long answer : back in 1942 there was such things as an official war against germany. No matter how your governement , there is no such a things as a recognized war against a *word* (war agaisnt drug, war agaisnt terrorism) just like the made up "illegal fighter". The simple truth is that terrorism is a judicial problem (aka non military) but your governement saw the occasion to use new toy in real theater instead of training zone/firing range.
So we are speaking of assassination(the correct word in absence of due process) of citizen from your (or other) country.
*Shrug* . I don't expect that to change any time soon. Your military right now is probably creaming in their pants just as the amount of data they got about their toy used and potential advance.
If you look at your list, one of those is punctual & limited in time, the other are actually standard and are always hapenning. Military is definitively punctual, and so far you are in the US the first military of the world with god how many wars where you are the agressor (justified or not), and not really "attacked by the enemy". I am sorry but even in normal time your military is waaaaay overkill and you haven't been attacked by anybody for 60 years, and you can't say with a straight face you will be attacked due to your nuclear aresenal. So your military is definitively over budgeted. The rest, particularly science, not so much.
"The US finds itself on the receiving end of protectionist legislation in other countries that discourages use of non-domestic IT service providers"
That is a misrepresentation. most country I know of which view the US cloud service warrily, do because of the privacy protection of their citizen. One cannot guarantee any privacy protection once the data is on US soil. Neitehr can one guanrantee that the US will not subponea the data. THAT is the reason some country do not want their cloud data in the US, or outside their own juridiction for what it matters.
"If you want to understand the world, you need math. If your education doesn't include that, what sort of education is it?"
The answer is apparentely a political "science" education. Maybe religion education too. Now that I think about it that seems to explain a lot of things about our current political climate...
The judgement from a few weeks ago seems to idnicate game could be resold. Thus making such business model of a market place of used digital download valid for EU. The US is not the only market palce you know.
John Romero of "dai kaitana will make you his bitch" fame ? John romero the guy which went to social gaming like Zynga ? OK, normally attacking the guy bringing a message rather than the content is a fallacy, ad hominem. But in this case there got to be status limitation on this fallcy, and can we make romero our bitch and ignore him ?
For many discipline (all?) we already have known for a long time the limit of the human body. We don't test for that anymore. What we test nowadays, are two factors : how far can we push materials to get an advantage, and, to a thankfully lesser extent, how far can we push human modification/doping and get away with it without getting caught.
I find no vbalue whatsoever in olympics. In fact I find no value whatsoever in *watching* all sports. I do compete in archery and do a few other sports. But passive looking never held any interrest whatsoever be it local competition or olympics.
"A quick googling shows that about 10960 athletes from 204 countries have come together in competition within one city. If you can't find the value in that, then I feel sorry for you."
And I feel sorry for people which think they can dictate what value others should find into something.
I would rather have my data in hand of governement ONLY (and anyway they almost certainly have it or can subponea it) which is beholden to keep it secure, rather than in the hand in private industry which can sell it to anybody, can be unsecure, and can just snub me if I don't want to have it spread.
Furthermore you can vote a governement out. It may be hard but it is possible. Private company ? Forget it. Once in their hand it is utterly impossible to stop it spreading.
Doing both is more effective than your "or": taeching your kid that gun are dangerous and putting it out of their way is the safest route. In fact I knew somebody like you , which was taught by his father about rifle and handgun. He still nearly killed a friend because he tougth he knew enough (just like all kids do).
It is QUITE telling that you would rather take a lot of death spread over a large surface, rather than a single spike, even if that spikes has a lower death and economical impact overall (yes, the cost of fukushima is billions, but the cost of the thousand of death due to coal emission pollution have a yearly comparable cost too, and fuku/tchernobyl do happens relatively rarely).
Me I would rather have a spike which is more controllable with added security, rather than non controllable few regular death over all the country. Especially when the industry causing those death (coal burning pollution) ALSO is the same industry which actively into emitting a lot of CO2 in the atmosphere. Two bird one stone : new nuke plant are more secure, and will only pollute locally if breaking, whereas coal/oil pollute globaly, kill globally each years and participate into fucking our climate globally. Not a tough choice IMHO.
A man mugged me. Therefore all men are thieves. Some woman betrayed me with my best friend therefor all women are cunt. Generalizing is stupid. You are generalizing from one company to the whole fucking human race. This is neither interresting nor insightful.
Unless you invented a way to transcribe what your synapse saved onto an electronic emdium sharable and viewable by anybody youa re using a weird version of recording used by nobody else.

"It's been just about impossible to criticize the religious beliefs of anyone for decades"
Try millenia, "blasphemy" at least in western Europe is very old, with punishment varying depending on the century & country.
If you look at your list, one of those is punctual & limited in time, the other are actually standard and are always hapenning.

YMMV in other country you cannot give up rights, even willingly, and that clause is probably unenforceable in EU for example.
