Unfortunatly the uneducated people are already making stupid laws, such as a the carbon taxes.
Not sure how useful making them pass exams from organizations with science in the name since alot of those groups don't follow the scientific principle. It would just go against your original idea of requiring educated people to make policies.
So the salary of the senior execs salary went from $1 to $3?
O wait you get your news from various kook sites, such as huffington post, who are deliberately mixing up a previous CEO with the current CEO.
FYI, they did go through bankruptcy under Obama.
The difference under Romney was that the government would be higher up in the list of people to be repaid.
Back to everyone doing what is right in their own eye. While it may be ethical, after all prisons are full of sexual deviants that followed their own ethics, it does not lead to a just and lawful society.
That parents are not paying for college is really wrong.
In various studies have shown that around 50% of all students have tuition, housing and books covered by parents. Less than 33% receive little or no support from parents, and this could include student who had everything paid for by other means.
So yes most people have the luxury of having their parents help with paying and the majority have everything paid for.
This does change after the initial degree when parents feel that is the right time to stop paying.
Lets get the facts right on Press TV, there were not banned their right to broadcast was pulled. No site was blocked or anything of that nature just no broadcasting.
As for the reason of their right to broadcast being pulled was because they company in the UK did not have decision or editorial rights. The company was told if they wanted to broadcast as a UK company they had to have editorial decisions made in the UK, otherwise it was foreign company wanting to broadcast in the UK and had to get other permissions and pay other fees.
Also this is the UK they have a long and current history of blocking thoughts and discussions that made people upset.
Well I am upset that the iOS on my touch would not provide routing, switching, internetworking and telecommunications functions.
There should of been a warning that this one did not provide that.
Don't know about Canada but in the USA the tribes that are around and ones when various European countries came across were not the first nations. According to thier own histories they killed and kicked out other people so in most places, they are usually the third and four nations.
It become important because schools get money from federal and state funds based on attendance. However you have to be able to prove the number. Alot of schools just do attendance lists other look for a system like this.
Perfect example.
For the western world until the late 1800 it was the accepted fact that the world was round, one need only look at art and literature from that time to find that out. However two scientists started passing out the idea that people from previous centuries generally thought the earth was flat. That is so much of group think now that you even used it as an example and try telling people that people in the past thought the Earth was round and you will be attacked as a crackpot.
That is total BS, if you attempt to go against what is considered the group think then you will very much be attacked, blacklisted, etc. If by some chance you do prove yourself as correct then you might get hailed as a hero but until then watch out.
There are free and microsoft provided tools that read iso/vhd. No reason to switch for that.
USB 3.0 is still not that common that the need to install additional drivers is a pain. In another 3-4 years this would be a feature vs win7 but not currently
anti-malware is one thing I would first shut-off because of the problems it has and the way it does protection.
The new task manager is alot nicer but another thing that can already be duplicated with existing microsoft provided software.
The multi-monitor support is primarily cuteness, not like Vista where you had improvements in what could be done with the multiple montiors vs the previous versions.
The new copy/move dialog boxes looks nicer but they are still using the windows 7 system where that information is not correct and as microsoft has acknowledged that it was added back in to show users that something was happening.
The graphics system is cute but not anything people have really been clamoring for, if they had come out with a DirectX 3D 12 with alot of new features it would of been of worth once games started coming out to use it.
Other features you mention don't come into play unless you are using a tablet and there windows 8 does have alot of features worth while vs Windows 7 . Why I would use a Windows 8 tablet vs an Apple or android tablet is something else.
Besides you skipped the biggest thing that microsoft is pushing, the Microsoft store integration
The features are not bad, if a new service pack came out from Windows 7 with all of them I would be downloading it when the final version was released on MSDN and have it installed but as Windows 8 they are just not reason to switch. There are no features that scream you will want this unlike Vista.
The storage, backup, and the replacement for VSS are nice and I would consider putting on my parents computer but compared to what is there verses Windows 7 there are not major.
I am in the process of replacing my 5 year old desktop and maybe going with windows 8 with classicshell but it just not worth it.
The UI mess is any easy thing to complain about and one that people instantly see.
The main problem is what technical or feature reasons are there to switch to Windows 8? I can point to benefits of switching to Vista when it was released but windows 8 is some bug fixes, ms-phone tied in, and a poor UI.
15-20 mins is not competitive; and you would need a 7500+ volt power supply to do that with current cars, will ignore other problems when you charge a battery that fast.
You also have to factor in how long will I have to wait for my time at one of the plugs. With all the extra waiting you now have to have larger stations, which will have problems for cities, or you make it so that parking lots provide fueling which has other problems.
The only way to make it competitive is for under 5 mins. Which means you need to replace the batteries. So until you get a universal system for that it is not going to be competitive.
Would not comment and pass it off as the joke it is, but some people think it is insightful or informative.
1) Organic farms can use fertilizer and pesticides.
2) For 99.9999% of the organic farms they don't produce more than conventional farms and don't come close. My parents run an organic farm were we do produce more than conventional farms but that is because the plants that are harvested won't grow under farming methods, organic or conventional, so have to grown wild and harvested as such.
3) taste is usually a factor or ripeness and organic produce is not harvested any differently than conventional. You are thinking that organic means it is picked at peak ripeness and it does not.
if you have that many complaints about farms why don't you start a farm. You can do it for free and whenever the government makes a rule change that make you loose money and property you can smile and happily accept it.
No.
Based on just Amazon the top moneys can but once you hit the top 20 and lower they are making less than a below average physical book using normal means.
Even then the top people are not making as much as a upper normal publishing person.
There are two things you will learn after reading the summary.
1) This was the weirdest slashvertisment ever.
2) If that joke is one of the most contemptuous and popular ones they need alot of practice and have a great lack of humor.
You are mixing in the local food movement with organic food.
The majority of organic food is picked and processed the same as conventionally grown food. It will take longer for the organic food from when the seed is planted but that is because it takes longer for it to reach a marketable size but that does not equal that the product will be a peak ripeness.
The counters, being voters, have a interest in the outcome so have MORE interest in lying in favor of the person they voted for. Not to say people will do it, but when has a computer gone off by itself and done it.?
History has shown that paper ballots are easier to use to rob elections and have a less chance of being detected, we know about all the stolen elections and attempts to change elections because people talked not because it was detected.
So with a history of rigged election, people who have a a greater interest of of not keeping things honest, you are happy that a machine does not do those things?

The idea of "jus primae noctis" is fictional, a device for novels and jokes.

No it cannot and even suggesting that it would be so for the majority of people reading this site is just stupid.

Not with the English version I saw in Germany. No add besides the standard slideshow that are shown before all movies.
