I would not have the least qualm about undergoing that test for psychopathy, not one bit of concern. I know I have empathy and a conscience, just as psychopaths know they do not and insanely enough think they are better than everyone else for that genetic lack, they are more powerful, more evolved then the people they fool, cheat and kill.
Who is kidding who, the 1% get there by lying, cheating and stealing at every opportunity, by corrupting laws and, attacking every element of democracy, they are the scum of the earth, basically insatiably greedy psychopaths.
What to solve the problem of a growing number of welfare recipients, too easy, offer them free drugs of their choice with added birth control, problem solved in a couple of generations. When according to you they are too lazy to work, then they are too lazy to raise children and the only reason they get pregnant (well 50% of them) is they are too lazy to get birth control.
So an obvious saving would be to incorporate solar energy technology into the roof cladding, so that you are not paying for solar panels over a roof, an immediate saving at least for new houses. Other area of savings switching over to all DC in houses with a street AC supply, saving on all those hidden transformers and allowing for much easier connection of local renewable energy sources.
The number one saving of course would be, open patents on solar technology, the government simply going eminent domain of solar technology and then directly funding further development and the realising those development free of patent charges for local manufacturing only (external would still pay development and research patent costs).
Those who want more, will work for it. Also let's put an end to those who want more, demanding other people work for it. Surplus productivity is not meant to be wasted in the vain attempt to feed the insatiable greed of the rich 1% but meant to produce more leisure time for the 99%.
I see you can't understand the difference between a social species and reptiles. Here's a hint psychopaths and narcissists always see the whole rest of the world as greedy, why, simply because the rest of world does not live to feed the insatiable greed of psychopaths and narcissists. Eliminate the psychopaths and reasonable solutions abound, allow psychopaths influence and insane thinking abounds, it is their inherent parasitic nature.
Shareholders are not idiots, you can expect a strong demand from major shareholders for a big dividend. Apple is full of worms and those shareholders will want to take that money and run, before the branding collapses, just as every other empty non-manufacturing branding enterprise before it has collapsed. The USPTO is now demonstrating how fucked up first to patent truly is. They will simply patent anything and everything if it hasn't been patented yet, even when existing products are out in the market and dick US corporations are now running around looking at all the products on the market to find which features haven't been patented to launch cheaper to give in that fight patent lawsuits, thanks to corrupt US courts and no loser pays requirements.
Better yet, it needs to be contracted and privatised upon a no bid basis to ensure maximum profitability and minimised usability, with all costs offset in futures and debts subprimed in secondary markets, all set for the next emergency gouge the 99% and enrich the 1% economic stabilisation package.
They simple rewrite all government accounting software to directly deposit all the tax paid by the 99% directly into the back accounts of the 1%, afterall was everything has be privatised you'll have to pay a toll to take a breath of copyrighted and patented air.
Well it is rather similar to sticking with Google search because you prefer Google street view in the new higher resolution to M$ offerings.
Reality is there is nothing stopping M$ grabbing that mozilla source creating a M$ branded Firefox and releasing it in parallel in M$ internet explorer as long as they adhere to the conditions of the open source licence.
This move could be a seen as a step in that direction.
In this case, it will likely just turn around and bite the marketing brands right on the butt. A lot of consumers will find the only difference between the correctly unkown brand and the branded version is the label with a 1000% markup and a whole lot of B$ advertising they now don't have to pay for.
Hell, all I want is an honest review site where branded crap with weighed down by a crap load of advertising costs is accurately compared to the unbranded stuff coming from the same factory in China.
Bugger the brand, I'm sick of being expected to parade around the streets like some idiot pay for the privilege billboard and having to pay for some lying celebrity who pretends to like the product.
Man is a social species, we are not successful as individuals we are successful as a group. From a Darwinian viewpoint psychopaths are destructive, once the numbers reach an excessive percentage of a social group that group collapses eliminating all members of that group, this occurs by over exploitation of the environment, social self destruction where the group preys upon itself to destruction or by antagonising surrounding social groups into destroying the group controlled by psychopaths.
The is already an infallible test for detecting the degree of psychopathy in an individual. A simple regime of testing to exclude those individuals from positions of governance, control and influence will solve most of humanities problems and thus avoid destruction of the social group. Keep in mind humanity is forming a global social group and destruction is becoming equated with species extinction.
So a corporation of psychopaths, for psychopaths and by psychopaths. In fact modern corporation are the epitome of psychopathic thinking and practice. Which inevitably seeks to corrupt and takeover government.
Psychopathy is a passed on genetic trait, the absence of empathy and conscience, which enables the most offensive kinds of behaviour imaginable.
Eliminate the psychopaths and you eliminate the problems, those corrupted structures will simply collapse or reform once their negative influence has been removed.
Lets at least make some effort to be realistic. 1. Willingness to become a teacher. 2. Sufficient patience to interact with children. 3. Knowledge of subject matter. 4. Understanding of and competence at various teaching techniques applicable to age of students and subject matter being taught. 5. Willingness to go over the same boring crap, again and again and ad nauseam whilst remaining interested.
Things outside of teachers control required for an effective teaching environment 1. Supportive parents who engage positively in the education of their children. 2. Comfortable classrooms in safe environments. 3. Limited class sizes to promote teacher student interaction. 4. The schools ability to supportively remove (place in special classes) problem children from typical classes ie. smart and bored, dumb and frustrated and psychological troubled children. 5. Quality education materials books, computers et al. 6. A sound competent and well educated board of education to manage all of the above.
It sounds like the research is the epitome of well intentioned for stupid. It is not about managing teachers, it is about managing schools, it is not about the best teachers it is about average teachers tens of thousands of them, it is not about individual focus it is about effective education support infrastructure that provides state and nationwide teacher selection and education guidelines, school management and regulation with extended uniform standards across states and nationwide.
Education in the US seems to be failing largely because management is being left to communities to small ie lacking in funding and expertise to do it properly. Simple most expedient solution to fixing most of the problems would be to take education management cost and tax basis from local communities and transfer it all to state based management. Federal funds would then to go each state's department of education, ensuring more uniform application of standards and, significantly reduced wasteful replication of costly administrative services. So reduced tax cost of education whilst still putting more well directed money into schools.
Dreams do provide a function. They are a past collation of events and emotional states and meant to provide the solutions to future problems in order to achieve better emotional states or avoid actions they result in worse emotional states. Evolution means that dreams are still bound to basic nomadic hunter gatherer requirements and do not cope well with, a more modern complex world, artificial inputs from media and psychopathically driven wars (at the core of all wars are psychopaths).
Lucid dreaming is just were portions of the mind usually less active during dream states are more active hence you consciously influence the dream and have greater recollection of it.
For those people suffering from nightmares simply put them in more healthy, socially supportive and less competitive communities through their waking moments. Communities based on high competition and complete economic failure if you cant compete, (designed by and for psychopaths, hmm, they crop up again) sustain bad emotional states hence the nightmares.
Socialist concepts like a complete welfare net, universal healthcare, unlimited unemployment benefits, public housing and a proper minimum wage, will ease the emotional burdens and provide the outcomes sought.
Not to forget. Nuclear power companies, do not rely on pumps for cooling. Pumps should supply cooling reservoirs and gravity should be used to water for cooling purposes.
The capacity of cooling reservoirs should equal the required the time required to replace those pumps upon failure and maintain cooling demands, whether achieving shut-down or full load requirements.
Yes it costs more to do it that way but it is still significantly cheaper than failure of the system. Laws definitely need to be changed to make corporate executives legally and criminally liable for the decisions they make. When those decisions kill they should be charged with man slaughter and spend the appropriate extended time in prison.
Fox not-News(I refuse to repeat a lie), is basically a news organisation target at two groups, psychopaths and narcissists. Not surprising as it is run by psychopaths and staffed by narcissists. They are the greed and ego network, they run adds by the greedy to sell products to the greedy and truth, well, truth is just to darn unprofitable.
Time for a bit of celebrity reality. They are not whom they seem, they are a fabrication of their publication relations firms and marketing agents requirements.
When let loose free of public relations image guidance, typical ego melt down into drug induced collapse is the typical outcome.
So M$ is trying to patent asking public relations firms and marketing agencies, what you should wear, how you should behave, what you should like, and who you should hate, all based upon fabricated celebrity persona types.
What will M$ patent next, how to be a mindless zombie marketing victim, a 20th century idiot box moron and blank mind built to be filled with mass media bull.
People living longer lives raises another issue, live a thousand years and the instability of the earth becomes a real issue. Earthquakes, hurricanes, droughts, floods, pest out breaks, disease and even impacts from comets and meteors etc. all have a real inevitable impact upon your life.
An orbital space colony becomes a real secure escape from the vagaries of the inevitable probabilities of catastrophic termination. Anything threatening in space and it can move out of the way or hide behind the planet or moon it is orbiting and of course it is free from all the other planetary devastators.
The longer you live the safer space is versus the vagaries of a planetary surface. Now all we have to figure out is how to buoy up on our gravity field rather than being pushed down.

Knowing corporations this sounds like the perfect set up for, "it's the new guy's fault".

Ahh yes, the corporate era, where truth is called idealism and lies make big, big profits. Better to start fining the crap out of corporations and their corporate executives when they get caught lying. When those lies cause physical harm or death off to jail for a very long time go those corporate executives. Nothing idealist about that at all, it is just basically anti-psychopath.
A disorder implies curability, psychopathy is a genetic defect, they way it develops from birth to maturity is a developmental disorder related to the defect. So psychopathy ties around emotions and the effective absence of them and the total absence of being affected by other peoples emotions.
There is already a test that measures brain waves that can not be cheated on. It measures emotional reactions to events and the attempt to control those emotions. Psychopaths of course lack emotional empathy and hence don't need to control related emotions.
Obviously people who genetically lack, empathy and conscious (the impact of their actions upon other people) should be excluded from many position in life where that can have disastrous results. So now there is a growing emphasis on detecting psychopaths and preventing them from causing harm by becoming say, politicians, police officers, medical staff, teachers, and especially not politicians. A quick look at recent history clearly demonstrate how a Darth Cheney can result in the loss of billions and the death of millions and a quick test early in the career of that individual and his co-conspirators would have saved a lot a horrendous amount of harm.
As long as everyone watches out for peer pressure marketing it is fine. So ramp up, "You're A Loser If You Buy It, Rather Than Grinding It", to balance things out. Ultimately that is the typical worst impact of psychological motivated marketing, getting children to target and abuse those who don't keep up with the greed based demands of corporate marketing.
One of the best ways to counter act the marketing manipulations is peer to peer promotion of, delete you current status, suck it up and start again, if you can't you are a slave and an addict, if you can then you are free. So play, learn, have fun but don't let them own you.
Don't you get it, this is not about Steve Jobs, this is California, this is about reminding the majority, that "You Are Nothing, You Are Nobody, You Are Meaningless", unless of course your are a "CELEBRITY".
All pretty lame but would do you expect when they routinely elect those no-nothing celebrities to government, deface public structures with names, images, footprints and,worship them all day every day.
This act is pretty much wholly appropriate for California, no region in the world is so tightly locked down to celebrity worship than California (except perhaps North Korea but at least they limit their numbers).
It is becoming really lame in an internet connected world, where the majority directly connect with the majority and mass media is being squeezed out, to constantly still push celebrity bullshit and the majority are worthless nobodies. The reality is those celebrities are nothing more than manufactured PR=B$ (public relations lies for profit).
