You would not want to be the military in that command.
As with most commands stationed in the US the actual work is done by contractors with some GS looking them over and the officers looking over that.
Only work enlisted will be doing is help desk and stuff the contractors did not want to do.
If you really were interest in work there your best bet would be to get a job with a local defense contractor, get your security clearance then apply for a job out of Sheveport.
For people interested the real draw back is that the HQ is in Sheveport, Louisiana.
Yea you have gambling, a cheap cost of livings, and a Bass Pro Shop.
The downside is you have Louisiana, lots of rain and hot temperatures and the people who shop in a Bass Pro Shop.
That may be part of the case.
However that ignores the main problem and that is the children, is anyone really advocating this is a good lifestyle?
According to an FBI report, last year, and a few others it use to be that you had a few girls being used and passed around to the various groups for sex and picture taking, so you had the same girls showing up in lots of pictures. Since the 90s that has changed where the number of girls being used has increased and they don't get passed around, the girls are sold locally.
Besides the internet I would guess that part of the problem was the fall of the soviet empire and the opening that came from that. Tie that in with surveies showing that prostitution is one of the jobs that russian women say they plan to get into and you have more availability and an easy way of spreading it.
The 93 years does not matter make it 39 years if you want.
What the problem is that according to majority of environmentalist scientists we only have a few more years, under 20, until we reach the turning point and after that it will not matter.
Really and what lies are those, and please lets use a dictionary definition of lie as "A lie is an untruthful statement made to someone else with the intention to deceive. To lie is to say something one believes to be false with the intention that it be taken for the truth by someone else." not the liberal definition where a lie is repeating something that later turns out to be wrong.
You might want to actually try reading the Torah.
"plant two crops" actually it forbids mixing seeds of different plants together and then planting them. You can plant all the different crops you want they just need to be seperated.
"kill thoses who are drunk" please give a location
"enslaveing thoses who surrender" quote again please. No Israelite was permitted to take anything as a souvenir of war or to capture enemies and make them their slaves once a town had been put under a ban.
"Slavery is permitted" yep you got one right.
The system you describe is basically the same in the US, in most states there is no differences.
Where you get the problem in the US is that you can sign up to vote by just filling out a form and mailing it in, also if you go get a drivers licenses and you will be entered to vote. As it is now it is not that hard to get a drivers license, usually just a local address and most places do nothing to verify it is a valid address.
As for the dead most of that is because people are not removed from the local listings, most places are very bad and clearing their listings and when they do try to clear the list of illegal voters alot of times you are just asking for law suites, see Florida for examples.
Then when you vote you can use almost any form of ID and the only people who look at them are the scutineers who are volunteers and primarily retires, not much experience identifing fact IDs. If you don't want to do that then just vote absentee, by mail. So it is not that hard to have a small amount of people cast multiple votes.
The use of ID was discussed in the US Supreme Court along with how much can be asked for just last week.
How Canada avoids the problem the US has is Canada uses information from the Revenue Agency, voting lists from other provinces and other federal databases. In the US that is not the case, most voting lists are done locally and don't have the same type linkage that Canada has, I just check a state I lived in 6 years ago and I am still registered. Am kind of surprises I could check on-line if I was registered.
Galileo did not have evidence, it was not until Newton that what he was saying from Copernicus would be proved.
The math and science did exist at the time but it was now done by Galileo and the person who did it was not working on the same area.
It it should be very easy to prove that the article is wrong. But wait that is not the problem you just want to bash the magazine because it is not liberal.
The reality is
Galileo persecuted by the scientists because he spoke againt a keystone of the mainstream science of the day, when made to produce proof he could not.
I am an American living in Europe and no way is the US passport used in the US like a national ID.
In am use to having my passport here is Europe since it is used as a national ID. It is needed for all hotel checkins, getting packages at the post office, heck I even had to just use it to activate a new cell phone. If I was a European or in another country I would have a local ID card issued by the city I live which would be used everywhere I use the US passport.
Last time I was back in the US I tried to use my passport as ID in banks and a few other places and few of them took it. The ones that did take it only accepted it as 1 form but still required an additional ID. The stupid part was that those companies that did not accept my US Passport accepted my forgein drivers license.
Where are you reading that?
Everything I have seen is that the states still run the system but they check other state and federal databases. Also the states have to use one of 3 different security measures and do some other things to protect the system.
Some states ID already meet all the requirements there are others that are 1 item away from being complete.
According to an article I heard while Iowa and New Hampshire were first no one really cared about them and they were ignored for the big states. Then one person who would not of done good in the big states, IIRC it was Carter, decide to go with the small early states to build up momentum. He lost but got press to win NH so since then almost everyone has done the same thing.
Neat statistic about Iowa is that the only one person in each party who has won Iowa and then gone on to be President. Clinton for his second term when he was not running against anyone and Bush the elder, when he was also running unopposed.
Because Diebold is selling products based on the needs of the customers.
With banks you need something that sits around and is under the threat of constant attack, it needs to be strong and work under contast usage.
With voting machines you have something that needs to beable to be stored in a dusty room for all but 3-4 days of the year. When in use it should be under constant monitoring but members of both political parties and when in use by the public by even more monitors.
The thing if you look at the results of the various e-voting companies Diebold does it better then its competitors. However the president of the company decided he would exercise his first amendment rights and contribute and work for the Republican party as a private citizen. This made him a prime target for Democrats along with the company he worked for. So anything bad with voting it is Diebold fault even, like this time, the voting machines had nothing to do with it.
Provided the same number are printed out the new way would actually be a negative.
The reason is that printing shops can do the printing far cheaper and more green then your office printer.
Your stem-cell argument is just wrong.
Bush was the first US president to push for and get approved federal money specificly for stem-cell research. You have other Republican canidates pushing for increased stem-cell research and other Republican leaders have setup tax free areas for stem-cell research.
Most places will not even count the abentee votes, before announcing how the vote went, unless there are enough of them that in the even all of them voted one way they be within a few percent of changing the general vote.
Most places will count them for afterwards to get the official number but some places are not required to do so.
You should read quote before making guesses, the full text reads
1The Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus and tested him by asking him to show them a sign from heaven.
2 He replied, "When evening comes, you say, 'It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,'
3 and in the morning, 'Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.' You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.
4 A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah." Jesus then left them and went away.
Jesus was quoting them not making the statement himself.
The top book in this area are generally considered to be..
About Face by Alan Cooper. Version 3 is out
Don't make me think by Steve Kung. This is for web.
Anything by Jakob Neilsen. Now mainly focuses on web but he is the main UI person around. Has a web site http://www.useit.com/
GUI Bloopers by Jeff Johnson a little dated but far too much informaion about every aspect of the user interface.
Then you have the books for the language or framework you are working on. Java, Apple and Microsoft all have books on how the user interface should work for thier environment and language. Most of theses can be freely downloaded or read online.
Then for a higher level look along with other information _Code Complete 2_.
If you can make it through all of thoses you will be one of the top UI people around.
The grocery store I go to totally stopped accepting internet coupons for along time, they now accept certain ones that they have preapproved. If you have a new one you can give it to them before you start shopping and they will approved it while you shop.
IIRC when they first stopped accepting them they said there were sites that provided printable coupon complete with scannable barcodes for common items that were in the range of buy one get one free.
Like you say non of those features require the new features but they are not really new.
My current cheap DVD has the record the time feature, no menu just a record and jump buttoms. The feature I really miss is that on my first DVD had that automatically, just click the off button or when the auto-shut off activated. Then when you came back and wanted to continue just hit the play button and you continued from where you were. A quick google search found a few sub$50 dvd players with multiple bookmarks; now if the microsoft developers for WMP would learn what they are..
As for the pictures that is just because the format is new. I have some old DVD that had similar capabilities where you could click on certain scenes and display still pictures you could then use the arrow keys to move around; I also have other DVD that actually used the alternate video angle capabilies. So while you get theses neat features now on HD-DVD but I don't see much chance that you will see them once the manufacturers no longer need theses "demo" discs.
This has to be meant as a joke.
If not please look into Florida and the problems that they had with paper ballots. Then look into the dead voting in Chicago and Texas and see how easy that was to detect when paper ballots were used. That is not even mentioning all the times ballots were found in people car trunks, uncounted votes were found during the following election and ballots that are cast out because they have extra markings.
The reason that e-voting is being pushed is because it is better, the reason you hear about all this stuff with e-voting is that it is easy to detect and flag.

Don't know about previous numbers but the counts from the Christmas sales and earlier this month did not include PS3 and X-360 sales.

They had valid ID only because they used fake ID to get the valid stuff. If anything your argument proves the need for a system like this.
