There's sudden grabbing and there's fondling after a breathy "Happy Birthday Mr President". One is a crime due to lack of consent and the other is between consenting adults.
It's only the land of the nipple at the superbowl and places under Sharia law where I'd have to explain the difference between sexual assault and sex to someone over 15.
I find it very funny when someone says "believe me" after a huge and incredibly obvious lie. It seems to happen a lot.
Scamming has become so wrote to them that it is literally integrated into their personalities at a fundamental level.
They, the Bush family and a few other families lurking mostly around Washington have been at it for more than one generation. If you read a bit about Washington before the civil war you'll recognize a lot of surnames (not the Bush family but plenty of others), that's how long some of these "dynasties" have been going in the land that revolted against royalty. Christopher Hitchins knew Bill Clinton personally from the age of around 20 despite seeming to try to avoid him as much as possible - what he wrote on the topic provides a very interesting and very critical view from "the left".
It very much appears as if you are with your cherrypicked data, evasions, misleading message and persistence in pushing that message. Did you do all all for The Party Komrade?
Deliberately fooling the kiddies for the sake of politics really disgusts me.
Indeed, but it's not really "low-balling" since the final figure would be incredibly hard to guess. With something like a rail line it's not going to be minor but instead land is going to be a very significant part of the cost.
Nothing new there, it was old, old news in the 1960s when the Japanese put in their high speed rail line, spent a shitload on property and paid for a major chunk of it by renting out some of the property they had acquired for retail etc. It turned out that they could charge a lot of rent for shops close to popular railway stations.
Well they are the people who managed to even fuck up "ping" (look up "ping of death" for how badly they did it) despite having the BSD source code given to them on a plate.
but I still cannot get over how you are somehow not allowed to USE YOUR BRAIN to count cards in order to win in a casino
Sadly the rule "only the house is allowed to get ahead because they pay shitloads in taxes and you rubes don't" is enforced by the governments that get money this way. Breaking that rule by using your brain to take advantage of an edge case violates that rule. Unfair, but deep down did you every really think it was supposed to be fair?
a significant part of the project cost the fluctuating cost of that land
If this were the real reason, then those fluctuations would be as likely to go down as up, and, on average, would net to zero. Yet public works projects almost always miss their budget in the same direction... by going WAY over.
I appear to have gotten you at a bad time. Here is a little reminder about what you already know about the trend over time. Note the New York graph, which is not as extreme but still tends to rise, if you want to consider the general case and not buying stupidly expensive land for the final miles of a track between SF and LA. http://www.doctorhousingbubble... Perhaps a little thought before posting would save you from such embarrassment.
You could think that way or you could consider that the prize actually doesn't mean what you (and most people) think it means and the committee have different aims to what you think they are. It's more of a political statement by the committee, about what the committee likes, than rewarding anything that has actually been done yet. I thought pointing out that Arafat got the award should make it more clear. Surely you are old enough to have heard of Arafat? Do you really think he deserved something called a "peace prize" if it really was actually a "peace prize"? The perceived irony of a warmonger winning the "peace prize" happens probably around every three to five years.
It's just a sideshow to the real awards for Physics etc anyway.
Yes I made a mistake based on partial reading of that article.
Salary data is everywhere
Then how about choosing something representative instead of doing something that is completely indistinguishable from cherrypicking to push an agenda?
If I told students that they could expect to get the salaries you are going on about as if they are normal they would see me as an utter prick when they graduate and find that those salaries are not for them.
Do you truly believe this was totally unforeseeable?
In terms of hard numbers? Of course. Do you really think you can put a dollar value within 5% on what a bit of land is going for next year? Spin it out to five years, and where a 2% mistake really stings your budget and you'll get an idea that it's not going to be as simple as you seem to think it is.
So no examples? Not even one? Deluded fanboy detected. When you are asked to work on somebody else's computer other than your gaming rig you'll understand this thread.
The sort of boondoggle that Japan has got a lot of use out of since the 1960s? It worked for them and LA to SF seems almost like a textbook example of where it would work again.
China owns most of the land in those projects and when they don't they do not pay what California property speculators out for a quick buck would consider a fair price.
It's a lot more simple than that. When buying land for a project is a significant part of the project cost the fluctuating cost of that land is going to make it really hard to work out how much the project is going to cost.
It wasn't mine (please at least try paying attention), and I did fix it by rolling back to MS Windows7 which was the entire point of the story here.
As for your "absolutely everywhere", I must admit I have not seen such claims anywhere apart from advertising material which is clearly both overhyped and utterly misleading. If it's "absolutely everywhere" surely you can provide at least one link? Go on, prove that you are more than just a clueless fanboy and that you can think across the board instead of just having experience with one gaming rig with specs good enough for MS Windows 10.
For a start there's probably close to a million people in the USA who could do a better job. He is not being chosen for his ability but chosen due to his connection to Trump. We are in horse judge territory.
He wore out that normal respect many times over so that's why he has to earn it back if he expects any respect at all. Having a reset just because of the job is drifting damn close to "divine right of Kings" territory. Also consider the birther shit and remember that of all the strange things Trump was the one that demanded Obama show us his penis to somehow prove he was American. Is that showing respect for a President? Trump should expect to reap what he was sown.
It was a move by the Nobel committee to,try to influence him to act in a certain way. They do it to someone nearly every year that doesn't "deserve it" yet. If it was for actual actions it would have been given to Arafat and Begin after Israel and Palestine were at peace - but it's an encouragement award instead of really being a "Peace Prize". That all sounds a bit slimy in comparison to their awards for Physics etc but maybe we're just translating the award name wrong.
To sum up - he deserved it just as much or more than Arafat did.
FFS - the material isn't really all that hard. Teaching appears to be the hard bit. It's bad enough tutoring 20 year old engineering students that actually want to be there, I really have no idea how difficult it would be to teach a high school class.
Having someone with an education degree teaching Math? Science? Organic Chemistry?
I had people with an education diploma, not a full degree teach me all that stuff. The answer is they didn't stop learning after that diploma. The equivalent of a couple of subjects at university level of each of those topics is going to give you enough to write a high school textbook on those topics let alone teach it.
Yes but the "need" has been seen as the need for indentured workers under tight control instead of someone with special skills. That's why people with special skills that are available locally are being ignored for positions. Giving them a visa or similar removes that tight control and makes them no more desirable to the employer than a local with those same special skills.
The excuse of "I need an expert on X and can't find one in the entire USA" is almost never the reality.
Nice try, but "highest paying base salary" is going to be screwed by the same regional factors isn't it? That should be obvious so you are clearly doing this deliberately. Are you pushing an agenda or just think that "flyover country" doesn't matter? What you've written is only applicable to a tiny percentage of graduates each year that by connections or ability manage to snag one of a tiny number of jobs available at that incredibly high base rate, and are able to move to an area where rents are ridiculous. It's also skewed by those people who land a ridiculously high paying first job due to family connections and their pay rate is due to who they are and nothing to do with the actual job. That's relatively rare, is not going to show up on an average, but it's going to skew that "highest paying base salary" metric right up. Averages are what you should be looking for in an honest discussion.
Are you attempting an honest discussion and made a mistake or are you pushing an agenda with false metrics?

Never done that, but driven plenty without front brakes at all.

The law is there to protect the profits of the political donor. This act endangered those profits so is seen as a crime.
Sadly the rule "only the house is allowed to get ahead because they pay shitloads in taxes and you rubes don't" is enforced by the governments that get money this way. Breaking that rule by using your brain to take advantage of an edge case violates that rule.

Look at the little thing to the right of each entry for the sample size.
For example: "Staff Software Engineer - $168,000 [350+ jobs]"
How the hell is that supposed to be representative?
Why would you put something like that up as "proof" of anything?
