"Medicare accounts for half of all healthcare spending in this country, and only covers a small portion of us" Soooo, obamacare will fix this? ----------------- All you pouty boys shut up, let someone with some sense explain this. It really is (past) time for an explanation of how this is going to work.
Isn't that is WHY the AC asked "In what substantive way is this different than affirmative action?". Giving special credit to specific minority groups has been a hallmark of US affirmative action. Some believe it sets those groups up for failure and dependence on the government.
Sorry, that sounds mean. Hey, do you know his definition of 'incomplete'? Balls and all! Sorry again. Thought of that because I heard the alleged affair was with his biographer Paula Broadwell. Title of the book coincidentally is "All In".
You equate low income with democrats... Are democrats unable to work? Are democrats bad with money? Are democrats unwilling to work? Are democrats lazy and just want to take other peoples money? Or Are you a TV educated economic racist?
Dear M. A. Coward, Thank you for this opportunity to serve you. I am a Nigerian Prince and have recently come into possession of a large supply of PCI-e video card suitable for NETBOOK. To assure proper fitment of PCI-e video card suitable for NETBOOK please send NETBOOK to my location along with $20 US dollars for return shipping.
Best wishes.

This Science Fiction Museum in Seattle is still open: http://www.empsfm.org/at-the-museum/current-exhibits/icons-of-science-fiction.aspx# It is part of the EMP and tickets are $20 or less. Display pieces include items such as an Imperial Dalek from Doctor Who, the command chair from the classic television series Star Trek, and Neo’s coat from The Matrix Reloaded. If you know where the Science Fiction Museum in Seattle was, that you say went bust, this Science Fiction Museum in Seattle will be easy to find.
Few people in the E.R. got there alone. If you ever have to transport someone to the hospital you can probably expect a wait. Bring a book or something because you may not be able to enjoy the view from there.
Same thing I've seen in hotel web sites, but I digress. An additional problem in a HIPPA perspective is that (per your experience) the data was not encrypted... That may seem to be a huge oversight to someone on/. but a lot of medical staff are not terribly computer security conscious. Heck, too many IT staff don't understand security.
When devices, networks, and users fail to protect data individually or collectively there will be issues. That is no excuse for wide open access to medical devices. I do wonder if they have to go through a full FDA acceptance period for software/firmware updates? I suspect that could be an issue. -- No brain, no pain.
Here are a couple more links: School Employee Salaries http://wwwb.thenewstribune.com/databases/school_pay/ and a site that covers most of WA state type employees http://lbloom.net/ -- If I recall correctly the lbloom.net info took a lot of court time to get access to this public data.
District Quick Facts Our Students 49,870+ students -- Whoah, nearly 50,000 students now! -- Our Schools 95 total schools -- Now the counting gets fuzzy for some reason: -- Our Staff (estimated) 8,000 total staff, 3,000 teachers -- Holy union job batman, that's over 16 students per teacher and over 6 students per employee as listed on the current SPS web site. There is something interesting about these numbers, a few years 'staff' numbers dropped drastically in the SPS reports. It seems that a great many not directly working at a school just disappeared. They still have jobs and get paid from taxpayer sources, but it sure makes employee per student numbers look better. -- So take your utter and your bull to some place where you can reconcile the magic staff numbers until they and you aren't taking tax payer money..
Last numbers I saw show the Seattle school system has more employees than students.. If you're curious what this costs , you can find yearly wage data online, but a couple of years behind. Freedom of information takes time in Washington.
I think Herkum01 was obliquely making a similar point. A lack of concern about the quality of an education by a school system may be observable in the language skills of its graduates. (Grammar natzies: Your turn)
Everyone in saucer design knows that the Coanda Effect also causes the outline to appear blurry and shaky. It is the first step towards cloaking which was later perfected using techniques developed by Tesla.
Didn't Boeing try to build there? Pretty sure Boeing qualifies as an American company. Maybe not, the American government squashed them. Maybe the problem isn't necessarily business leadership....
Too bad I'm responding to an AC, but you are the definition of 'POP'. 'POP' in music is a genre, the definition of which is mostly controlled by those beholden to the industry distributors, rolling stoned, and the paid reviewers. Other then that it is the first three letters of popular and the first three letters of my favourite kind of corn.
XRANDR. It's all you need -- a daemon watching EDIDs and speaking XRANDR. And an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope. Ah, amongst the things you need.....

I might want to hire you to explain thing I've said.
You're probably very busy during the campaign season.

Anyway, well said.
Shouldn't this be modded informative or insightful?

You nailed it.
For crying out loud, it's TV shows.
What kind of pinhead is paying someone to store TV shows.
(It was a rhetorical question.)

'Speed of sound' means little in a vacuum, at least that is what I hear.d.
