I never said socialized medicine was the only way, nor did I say ours is the best and only way. I just said its tacky to jump up and start pounding your chest about how much $nation stinks. What I mentioned is an epidemic in some nations but Im not going to beat my chest about it for mod points on slashdot..
"Nope. The supreme court now splits nicely down party lines for every vote."
Firstly the supreme court is a-political but if you must know seven of the nine judges on the court now were apointed by Republicans. Sandra O'Conner was appointed by Regan and I doubt youd would have considered her a political hack for the right.
"I wonder how many 5-4 votes have gone through in the last six months, with votes falling the same way every time."
Probably about the same percentage as any other year you only hear about the 5-4's because, well, usually those are the news worthy cases. http://docket.medill.northwestern.edu/archives/003 771.php Shows most decisions in 2006/07 were either unaninous or extremely one sided but its not news worthy unless about 40% of the population disagrees with it.
"Americans: I feel sorry for you."
Dont, despite what you might think many of us are not hopelessly despondent and unhappy with our nation. Sure we have a very unpopular president but hell be out of office in a bit over a 18 months (if not sooner). Nothing is as tacky as someone from another nation saying who they 'feel sorry' for someone else because the culture there is different and the government reflects that.
I Dont feel sorry for some European nations (Im not even going to name them) despite the fact people die waiting to see a doctor there its their health care system and for whatever reason they like what they got.
No I act as if any drug pushed as a panicea against a particular disease is a bad thing because its misinformation..
Gardisil: http://www.consultwebs.com/gardasil-HPV-lawsuits.h tml is being pushed despite the fact it is not been tested for any appreciable period of time because the commercials say '1 less' even though It could be one more. Great publicity..
The autism they are dealing with is from hanging 'x' syndrome all you need to do is find a female who is trait positive (has on malformed x) and breed her. 50% of her male offspring will have the condition. You can, through trial and error, get a female with the condition by then using that male and a trait positive female (but not the mother thats icky). All of *that* females male offspring will have the condition.
This is not an autism cure it is a cure for a 'type' of autism.
Its a grant ploy, similar to the sales ploy used by guardisil (sp) which does not prevent all of the HPV nor all the subset of HPV that causes cervical cancer but if we say this stops cancer we can get states ot mandate it for grade school girls.
Both things are good (mitigating the effects of hanging x and preventing hpv) but neither is the solution as advertised..
If the thing falls out of the sky I really dont care if the wings are in tact. Im not saying this is bad but there comes a point when it really does not matter towards the application..
Umm Dude, no..
ID means there is an intelligence behind the design not that it just happened. Some believe in the Biblical account and some believe God drove evolution before you start trying to deride the intellict of others who disagree with you go buy a clue first..
"Things got so bad that Mr. Friemann sometimes had employees piggyback on a neighboring business's wireless connection that was more stable -- without the other business's consent or knowledge."

Ok so your neighbor could set up a network which worked fine even for you whom, presumably, are further away from his source than you are from your own. Despite this its somehow the technologies fault? WiFi is fine, established, and mature this admins understanding of it is not.
and then there is this
--
"Some wireless networking companies are taking steps to try to deal with customers' problems. One major issue is the stability of the wireless signal. Ruckus Wireless Inc., a wireless networking company based in Sunnyvale, Calif., tries to address that problem by providing wireless access points that have multiple antennas. That allows a Wi-Fi signal to have more than one pathway to an access point -- which can come in handy if something is in the way."
--
Its called a cable folks, there are plenty of ways to rig antennas and get them in existing wap points. Thats not to say there is no value in what Ruckus is doing just that its not like we cant do that.

Id go along with that, soap opera was not intended to be derogatory its pretty good for sci fi but nothing to gush over. Frankly the only sci-fi shows I thought toped the acting on B5 would be, in order, FireFly, Battle Star (the remake), and maybe farscape..
I understand this and aside from their mortgage they do own this stuff they were just part of the great American refinancing! so now not only do the have a mortgage but they are upside down on it..
Are you saying a classification system doesn't have rigidly defined borders that never intersect?
No, Im saying when talking about a complicated social system like, for example, the US any classification system which is designed will crumble under thoughtful analysis or it will ebe so specific as to be useless. Classification in and of itself works eg: this is a noble gas because it meets the criteria, but when you try to do that to people you get a broke or uselss system.
"She (Nalini Kotamraju) argues that class divisions in the United States have more to do with lifestyle and social stratification than with income. In other words, all of my anti-capitalist college friends who work in cafes and read Engels are not working class just because they make $14K a year and have no benefits. Class divisions in the United States have more to do with social networks (the real ones, not FB/MS), social capital, cultural capital, and attitudes than income."

There is something to this where people decide to put their income and in what circles they run effect greatly their perceived class. This is not just a matter of being frugal but a matter of using money as a tool and the difference between how you use that tool.
I have friends who make 50K who own a boat, two cars, a motorcycle, and their home. They are also constantly in trouble with their debt. If one did not know them and looked at them they would see upper middle class family. even though they are on the cusp of losing everything. I have another set of friends who make less than 20K who rent an appt but have been steadily building assets and paying off student debt, one looking from the outside would see them as being impoverished but in reality they are living sustainability have a ton of time together and live a very rich life (though no boat).
When a scientist, especially a social scientist, trys to say this is what class is they are going to be wrong (just as I would be wrong) because being a mamber of a class can relate to any aspect of our being. I am a white male (that puts me in a class), I make $Salary that puts me in a class, I own a home, I am in a mixed race relationship, I have two kids, I take the bus to work, I'm 30,... All of these things put me in a box and some of those boxes conflict with others...
In terms of casting they had two gems Peter Jurasik, Andreas Katsulas both played their roles over the arc nearly to perfection. Everyone else was a soap opera quality actor. Still the story was so good (if only season 5 had not been in question) it carried them.
Wow dont just watch IC look at data in order
No its not (higher not only in earths history but in human history)
No its not (higher not only in earths history but in human history)
Yes but not the fastest growing
Yes but so what if c02 which lags temp is not the problem
Yes but so what if c02 which lags temp is not the problem
We're in a position now where we can do something about our environment, it makes absolutely no sense to continue on an unsustainable path when alternatives exist.
uggggg the fact it was happening, the fact that human emissions are less than many other sources, and the fact CO2 lags temp means taking every SUV and power plant off line today wont stop that big fuzzy and somewhat warm ball in the sky from making us colder and warmer at its whim.
One need only look at the smog of LA and Houston and most other cities to see the impact is far great than you indicate.
Hmm smog which is far less than 30 years ago and which covers almost an immeasurably small percent of the earths surface
Scientists say global warming is real and countries have to mandate reductions in CO2 emission because that's where the science points
No, its not! CO2 Lags temperature not the other way around, solar activity on the other hadn *leads* temperature.
If you have a better theory, submit it to a journal, but all other explanations have LOST in the market place of ideas, and only through willful ignorance do people continue to ignore the rigorous scientific methodology.
No other theories have lost in the realm of politics.
The fact we have had periods far warmer than this in human history is also fact. Yes its getting warmer is it us slightly elevating.02% of the atmosphere or that big giant ball in the sky?
Nice troll fucktard. Global warming is real, it is not only man made but is specifically created by the USians. Why don't you think Shrub refuses to sign the Kyoto treaty? The fucktarded USians don't give a fuck about the rest of the world. The only sane ones are similar to Al Gore.
Real? yes
Anthropomorphic? Lets wait until this sunspot cycle dies down to find out
Why not Kyoto? Maybe because China and India have no obligations under Kyoto
Dont care about the reset of the world? Ill put up us aid to poor regions against your rants any day
If whales are livening longer than we thought and yet their numbers are still lower than they should be Who knows what the reproductive life of a whale is and it could mean many of the living adults dont breed anymore
