Bill Nye Claims: "don't make your kids do it because we need them. We need scientifically literate voters and taxpayers for the future. We need people that can — we need engineers that can build stuff, solve problems."
Then maybe you should stop killing them with abortion and contraception? It's well known that intelligent atheists fail to breed.
Money doesn't grow on trees ALONE. It is mined out of the ground, it is grown partially on trees, and partially on cotton plants. It's then printed.
It has almost NOTHING to do with the actual work and production of a country or state. It's only necessary because of the shared myth that it is necessary. Not a single dollar bill went into paving your local highway, but a lot of asphalt did.
The Drone war I'm talking about has nothing to do with the Afghanistan Taliban. It has to do with American terrorists such as the pro-life movement and the Catholics.
What's also interesting to me, at least, is why object to these new top level domains, when it makes it *damned easy* to filter the traffic at the border? Seems to me these new gTLDs are *perfectly suited to censorship*.
Given the crap they ship to America to fill our Wal*Marts, buying primarily domestic goods in China is a step down from the rest of the world in terms of quality of life.
Does the Drone War mean anything to you at all? The current administration is at least as warlike as the last one, the only difference is that they've figured out that automated flying robots are cheaper than soldiers.
Having said that- *beyond* calculus and linear algebra exists this thing my college called "Numerical Methods" which was basically how to do all that calculus and linear algebra in recursive or iterative ways, using the power of the computer.
THAT has turned out to be useful when programming in the set theory of relational databases, not a few times, but quite a bit.
I just wish that tradition didn't make you learn calculus and linear algebra first. Derivatives and Integrals are useful for recognizing patterns, as are multi-dimensional arrays, but I think you could learn Numerical Methods first and skip the rest.
It appears you are right, at least for Boston. We'll have to see what the courts say about Chicago and other places. This battle is far from over, however, no matter how much chicken they sell, Chicago Alderman Joe Moreno will block building permits for them.
And it's the tip of the iceberg. The HHS mandate has now hit, and Catholic business owners now have the choice between violating their consciences on the subject of contraception (something many FEMINIST ethnic Catholics seem to already find easy to do) or lose their businesses.
There have been a lot of attacks on this subject. None that I am aware have have exhausted all appeal yet. The cold culture war is turning hot, and it's going to be interesting when Home Depot tries to build a store in the Bible Belt and the reverse happens.
They don't need to draft legislation. They can just act like President Obama and use the *executive* power of their office to make sure permits aren't issued, or revoke permits that have already been issued.
If they actually succeeded, that would deprive them of even more future voters (because, after all, for the Republican Party, abortion is just a way to get poor white pro-life folks to vote for tax breaks for billionaires).
What makes your paradigm more correct than mine? Especially, in the century or so since the Panama Canal was completed, there is more reason to see North and South America as two continents than Europe and Asia.
Exactly my thought. I'd LOVE to see the "Religious Healthshare" model expanded and compared- Maybe a few Atheist Libertarians would even join in to show us how much better their home colloidal silver first aid is, and a few atheistic communists would join in to show us how everybody living together in a hospital and paying 100% of their income to the commune would be. And my tribe, the Catholics, could once again have hospitals with large maternity wards and no abortions.
There is no Continent named "America" There are TWO continents named "North America" and "South America" and a country called "The United States of America", but none of the seven continents are called "America" alone.
Exactly how is that different from Jesus Christ saying "Make God your Father, look at him as a parent rather than as a vengeful, arbitrary judge, and see what happens"?
And the difference between irrational and rational religion is asking the question "What does the universe look like if God Doesn't Exist and everything is Random?" as well as "What does the universe look like if God is an irrational idiot who doesn't follow his own rules?"
Science itself would not be able to exist in those other two universes- because there would be no rational laws at all- you can't have physics without laws, and you can't have laws without a lawgiver.
All human thought and progress requires the concept that what we observe today, might be observable tomorrow given the same starting conditions.

I've seen all of the above in Portland, Oregon, USA.
Have you been shipping your homeless to Oregon? All of these sights are pretty common in Portland
Are you sure you were in India and not Portland, Oregon?

Lego is the company. Legos are the bricks, which are made by many companies, apparently in total violation of international intellectual property law.

"Am I my brother's keeper? Usually, no."
Funny, my bit is flipped the other way on that. But I'm not going to drive 349 miles to eat at a fast food restaurant just to show my support.

IF the Democrats do the same thing? What do you think the gay marriage litmus test is all about, if not purging moderates?
Religion is a middle class value. Poor people can't afford it usually.
If they actually succeeded, that would deprive them of even more future voters (because, after all, for the Republican Party, abortion is just a way to get poor white pro-life folks to vote for tax breaks for billionaires).

From the article:
"The seven-continent model is usually taught in China, India and most English-speaking countries."
Since this is a high-technology website hosted in an English Speaking Country, I reject your paradigm and substitute it with my own.

Guess your education system is a failure too.
Last time I checked, Japan was in the continent of Asia. How the hell did we get on this thread anyway?
Wouldn't that imply another company having NON-mobile rights?
I expect any employer using Windows RT applications to be an idiot I don't want to work for.
