RIAA lawyers do serve a purpose too, they take money away from RIAA... which is a good thing. If they would give them back to the people they would be modern day Robin Hoods.
Palin is running for Vice-President that should be ready to take over in any instant in case the President dies of is incapacitated, given McCain's age and cancer history that's not a far-fetched scenario.
"Free will" as generally understood has no meaning in this context, it's actually a religious concept that is about whether people are free to decide without the influence from God(s). If you eliminate God from the discussion "free will" remains empty of meaning.
BTW, if there's a God and if particles and people have free will what did the God do to deserve the title of God?
If there's no God the concept of free will is useless, things are either determined or not... that's all. The only possible discussion that remains is if things can be truly random (undetermined) and from what I've heard that's the general opinion that things at quantum level are truly random.
First of all thanks for joining in to improve the thread.
Second, nobody in this threads fought about which side is the bad one, nor have I claimed that Georgians are gentle cherubs, nor other guy claimed the same about Russians. Before you join in and add in your stupidity make sure you read the posts that you reply to and don't invent straw-men.
How do you know what languages do I speak? And what if somebody makes various claims about their knowledge or abilities on slashdot, do you take that at face value?
If he did said that '1500 Ossetian bandits were destroyed" does that mean that those 1500 people were non-combatants as you claim or insinuate? How is that "genocide"? "he who raises the sword shall perish by the sword"
"stopping the ongoing genocide" -- that's Russian talking points, just like US invading Iraq for WMD, when will you stop trusting propaganda of people directly involved in the conflict?
"There were several attacks on Georgia, but strictly on military targets." -- I'm also sure that Georgians keep their tanks in the apartment buildings since I've seen some of them bombed by Russian planes.
Right... and Communism is good but it was badly implemented *rolls eyes*
You are an idiot, how do you know I'm American, and if I am how do you know I like Bush? Oh, wait, I just responded to an Anonymous Coward...
Do they still celebrate Lenin as a hero after the crap they endured because of him and his acolytes?
They might not know what DRM stands for but they know when they can't copy the DVD.

I guess if you can buy the necessary media coverage you are notable enough, seems OK to me.
For what is worth he mentioned that the counter-candidate is a lukewarm cadaver.
Economics ought to be unbaised.
I agree, economic decisions have to be made by flipping an unbiased coin.

Too many thetans?
You owe them your soul.
You are obviously a terrorist, you are going to be imprisoned without being charged and without access to a lawyer.
Welcome to new America!

Ask Russians, they perfected the method in Grozny.

Simple question, where did you get that 1500 number that you keep repeating like a parrot?
"stopping the ongoing genocide" -- that's Russian talking points, just like US invading Iraq for WMD, when will you stop trusting propaganda of people directly involved in the conflict?

Russia _definitely_ overstepped its peacekeeping mandate, sure. But by now nobody cares about it.
I care. Get the fuck out of Georgia. Georgian troops are in Georgia, Russian troops are in a foreign country. Do the math who is the aggressor.
Do you keep chicken in your garage?
You know it's hard to threaten somebody with a gun over the Internet, and if I tell you "go shoot yourself" and you do, it's your own choice.
If I tell you to jump out of building will you jump? Who is guilty if you decide to jump?
I'm sure there was a "no" post somewhere that was informative :D
