Duh, it's an election year. And he's going to lose. So trash anything that doesn't mesh.
My biggest beef with them is that you can't call a spade a spade. You can't say, hey that crap is pseudoscience. Nobody believes this nonsense. I mean, if you've seen a page with creationist edits, you could try deleting the edits because they are filled with falsehoods and lies... but then you're being biased. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_poor_de sign is a pretty classic one. Creationist criticism are filled with lies, and for balance the entire criticism section can't just be removed.
No. Due to the way the core is mixed the plutonium would be unusable for nuclear weapons. This was one of the requirements when coming up with the design of the plant.
It's all pretty much a waste of time. Nuclear waste is really just 99% active and usuable nuclear fuel. IFR, or 4th generation nuclear power generation would easily use most of that stuff up. This is one of the reasons why launching it into the sun or burying it in a subduction zone is so stupid. It's still very valuable. Sure the stuff is safe where we put it, but using it up as fuel in a very safe, impossible to meltdown, non-proliferating, safe nuclear reactor.
Even the old crap we built 30 years ago is still pretty safe and pretty good. And the tech has only gotten better... while at the same time the coal stuff (though a better) is still poisoning the planet. Nuclear power = Green power.
If I were him, I would have claimed I intended to put the picture on my blog. Blogs now have the same freedom of the press as the regular press. And you could expose state secrets if you wanted. So, basically so long as you don't break the law to get the picture... you can take it legally regardless if there is a law expressly forbidding it.
Although in reality the line would probably fail to provide the additional constitutional coverage as planned and get a baton to the head.
You can pretend to know an object. Deja Vu is an extremely specific thing. It's like a write read error in the brain. Usually you see an object or scene and the brain checks for it, finds nothing, and then writes it. In a Deja Vu event it gets written and read right there. So it seems like you've seen it before, even though it actualy is the same event. How that happens is outside the realm of telling people to act like their shoe is a dog.
Yeah, also, if you just go by popular vote you don't have the ability to do run offs. Runoff elections would be very nice. Everybody could vote for their favorite third party canidate before having the choice reduced to the real choices, who stand a chance.
A transferable vote system would be fantastic. Just list out the canidates you'd like in order. Or at least a few of them. For house seats and the like. Then, you'll end jerrymandering and oddly enough, a third party canidate might actually win. If a state has 5% support for a 3rd party canidate and more than 20 seats, it could actually happen. People could vote for their people rather than their party.
The original argument is retarded. WoW lowers the sales of my game because they don't have time/money for my game. I would explain all the fallacies and flaws in the orignal argument... but honestly I have to get back to playing WoW. If I had time, I would rip the argument to shreds.
They only real line is when they start actually creative thinking around 2 years old.
Also, there is a real line between 8-9 months and baby. Specificly the mother is still attached. That female thing that you typically ignore.
I can do things which makes me very much human, from about 2 year old on, I can reason to my own goals. I become, as Kant would say, and end within myself.
Can it set goals and reason to those goals? Is it an end within itself? If no, then it's not really that important. Infanticide is wrong because adoption is very easy to do. Most late term abortions are done because the fetus itself isn't viable anyway. I would happily allow women to get any procedure on their own body that doesn't kill anything with rational abilities.
I have 1.2 TB of harddrive space distributed across my network. Elephant Dream sucked so bad I deleted it to save the 400 megs worth of space. Had it been a CGI version of Strip Tease, I would still have the damned thing.
>>I'd go out on a limb and say that any open project can quite easily rustle up competent (and sometimes truly expert) help for any language or localization issue.
I don't think this is an issue. I mean, Elephant's Dream sucked in English and even properly translated would have issues. I think that, if rather than the dialog in the flick they said profane words... it would have been much more watchable.
Proves we could do CGI... and we should figure out scriptwriting.
I don't. Why the hell do mice get such cool crap. We can cure any form of cancer in mice. We can make them supermice. We can make them live twice as long, grown three times as fat, or have superhearing (ear on back).
Nah, I'm talking fish the phishers. Have preset bank accounts which are set to have any outward transers lock the account that gets the outward transfer. Find a fisher, give them the fake account. They fall for it and flags the offending account.
Remind me again... why can't they catch the money? Why is there no way to tag cash and find where it ends up and lock that account up? My banking knowledge is limited, but it seems like if you can follow the cash you can get pretty good results.

It doesn't really matter. This is a selected event. Bias seeps out when there is are political or religious articles. But, if you're looking up something on unicorns or galaxies or some kind of rat, the articles are pretty damned good. If you're looking up some arcane thing in Scifi, the articles are too damned good.
The shows themselves are not edited as such. They are a complete work and the random adverts within the show are skipped. These are not properly part of the artistic work. Also, these 'products' are 'sold' to the consumer by the copyright holder, not some third party.
For example, there is some dispute as to whether you can legally download a TV show which you were legally invited to watch on a different media. Certainly the removal of commercials there from a third party source might actually be a valid complaint, though there are some detractors.
A fetus is a bit more than a clump of cells, but not that much more. It can't make decisions or do anything, it doesn't have a fully developed brain as such. As for D&X, usually the fetus is pretty well screwed, when that option is used. The impression that rather than just have this late term "child" they decide to use a blender on it's head is rather stupid. There are a huge number of defects that can be detected late term and most of them have very compelling reasons to do the procedures.
At those points it's like, do you want a mentally handicapped or dead baby and a dead mother... or no baby and a healthy mother?
Some of the articles are amazingly good. Extremely well written and very reliable. However, sadly you could find less about some African countries than you can find out about some odd device that only showed on the TV screen for ten seconds in one episode of Stargate SG-1. But, honestly, if you need to look up some rare element in Starwars, LotR, Startrek, Stargate or any of a number of other fairly arcane things it is an invaluable resource. So the article on grazing is stub, whereas the article on Yuuzhan Vong (some small race in Star Wars) is like 4 pages.
Mormons? Are those the man evolved from clams people, the Native Americans are really Israelis folks, the stars are angels group, or man was made by alien guys? Or do you guys worship chakras or potatos or something?
