The numbers are way off on the old system. Since they have switched to a European group running it, the power ball winnings is all over the nation. Prior to that, the winnings were mostly east coast. in fact, Ca with their massive number of citizen should have been one of the top 3 most winning states. Yet, they, like the rest of the western states, won very little. Now, the winnings are running all over the nation like it should of probabilities are correct.
I addressed it, because we are legal within another nation's set of laws. Basically, every nation has a different set of laws on what is believes the correct civil rights should be. America has our famous constitution which embodies so many others ideas of what a nation Should have. Basically, it says what the gov can do, and then leaves all else to the citizens.
China has a constitution that spells out what rights a citizen has, and reserves all else for their gov (i.e. it is the opposite of the American constitution ).
Each nation throughout Europe does not have a constitution which spells out civils rights, but does have a body of laws that says what rights citizens and/or gov has.
But the amazing thing is that you believe that America has the ability to reach into another's nations and go much further than it is capable of. We can not walk into your telco closets and re-route everything everywhere. Now, we DO spy on other nation's esp, those outside of our allies. Of course, the others do that to us as well.
Is any of this a double-standard? Nope. Basically, we are saying that if you are spying on us, we will be spying on you. For example, we are not actively spying on Canada, or UK, though snowden pointed out that under W's admin he went too far in doing some spying on individuals within UK. But otherwise, we have been legal within every nation's framework esp. in the 5 eyes. So, absolutely not a double standard.
Actually, it was NEVER the best site. best site was in west texas close to where the bushes live.
However, Yucca is already built and is more than safe enough. As such, it should be used, but only after we have burned up the majority of this waste. IOW, we should not be burying 100,000 tonnes, but 5,000 tonnes. Besides, it is criminal to have dug up this energy and now to just throw it away by burying it again. that would be sad.
All of which is junk compared to the gen IV reactors that can burn up 95% of the waste, as opposed to only 30%. Keep in mind that 100,000 tonnes would simply be reduced to 70,000 tonnes, and this would still require many 1000's of years for decay. OTOH, with Trans Atomic's or Flibe's reactors, they would reduce this to 5,000 tonnes and this would require less than 200 years to become safe.
If we spent 1-2B, we could have several new fission reactors that would burn up 95% of the waste. In addition, it would allow the power companies to replace the old reactors, with a larger set of smaller reactors that can not fail. In addition, the power companies could make money while providing the 24x7 power addition that is needed to supplement AE and replace all of the coal plants quickly.
Keep Yucca mtn.
Instead, develop the Gen IV reactors and burn up the majority of the nuke waste. 95% of it can be used up. Right now, we have around 100,000 TONNES of this. By simply using safely in a gen IV reactor, we will have less than 5000 tonnes which will be safe within 200 years. As such, Nevada should not grip about this. Yucca mountain can hold that amount of waste easily, esp. if we vitrify it.
Sure. Please spend your money doing that. In the mean time, elon musk will continue to work at putting man on Mars (and Luna ) so that WHEN mankind is wiped off the earth, our species will continue.
CS makes sense in high school, but not in grade, middle school. In fact, I would rather that they had more PE for elementary school. And if we really want extra CS, then it should be taught at community colleges, along with robotics, and manufacturing.
get real.
First off, do you think that America is spying on EVERYBODY around the world? Can not be done. However, as was shown recently, all of the western nations that we have listened in on, we had permission to do so. In fact, you will find that America and several of the allies have upgraded their relationship and we now help them to locate their own terrorists and spies.
So, you can stop with your mightier than though BS.
You obviously need some coffee this AM. Nowhere did I object to this being outed. If this was just nsa/CIA/DOD, then I would have an issue. However, once this tech is in LEO grasp, then the public has full rights to know. In fact, we need to have more openness from all of the law enforcement groups.
Yup. Exactly right. For technology that is nsa/CIA/dod only and not being abused, then I would have an issue. However, this catalog is used by FBI, local police, etc. At that point, it absolutely should be public knowledge. In fact, other nations need to know about this as well, since their local police will be buying it as well.
Look, nsa, DOD, and CIA will make heavy use of these overseas to find and track ISIS, AQ, etc. That should not be the least bit surprising. In fact, I'm sure that we make all of this equipment available to the 5 eyes, as well as other allies.
What should matter should only be the cases when it is found to be used by agencies like FBI or local police and without a legal warrent. Once this equipment is illegally, then you have a real issue.
They happily take 'election' money from Businesses, Businesses that are 100% owned by the Chinese gov, groups that represent illegals, rich ppl, or nations like Turkey, and then discard their 'morals'.
Sadly, I doubt that they discard their morals. They just never had any to begin with.
This is NOT about Charity, but about finding new ways to improve public image of the company and increase Microsoft Sales. Gate's Charity has always tied MS sales to his money. Total BS.
O killed constellation because it was shown that it was worthless. Orion still lives and the neo-cons/tea* continue to push money into their district via SLS. The good news is that spacex is about to make a major announcement that should help drive the wooden stake into the GOP job bill.

Seriously, owning the manufacturing means that you have cheap goods all around. That is why the west needs to bring it back.
Huh? Why are we going to send police officers to Mars?

huh? Who is pushing for outlawing gen iv nuke reactors? GMOs? Irradiated foods?
Plenty of idiots on the far left, just like the far right.

A higher quality car since they will have to stop running windows on it.
Certainly. Please show us all a society that has ever managed to do that and how they did that.

For NSA, CIA, and DOD to locate terrorists and spies, these tools are absolutely needed.
The real issue is when groups like FBI get this power.
get real.

It is congress that allows, if not encourages this. They are the ones to blame.
Nope, legal, not penal or economic. It is our laws that reward large profitable companies, while punishing the small ones, that are at fault.
First off, Britain has their own equivence to our constitution, via their laws. Secondly, why would you believe that we do not have a constitution?
