The Bible: Those who believe shall be able to do miracles, such as drink poison and not get hurt, or heal the sick (Mark 16:17). So if you follow Christ and you can't do those things, then......yeah, you've just falsified it.
There is a lot of evidence to suggest that that passage was erroneously included in the bible(early manuscripts do not contain it and I don't believe the church fathers refer to it). Therefore it is possibly unwise for either side of any debate to base their arguments around it. It would be better to find another example.
And the AWG response to those people in Africa is : fuck off and die because we wont allow you to have an industrial revolution like we did. (from lack of cheap energy).
As opposed to the state of affaires when he "supposedly" walked the earth?
Or 100 years after... Or is it 500 years after that... Maybe it was 1000 years after that... I must be wrong, you probably mean in the peacefull 17th? 18th? 19th? 20th century?
Seriously, trying to find "the good old times" is an exercise in futility. Current state of affairs is better than it was before. There is still lots of suffering, hate and evil. However, much more people live quiet, healthy, happy lives, without fear of persecution than did before.
As a society we still have a long road ahead of us, however... I think education is the key and its helping us improve society as a whole much faster than we have in the past.
Religion, in general has been a hindrance to society, especially where education is concerned.
There are many reasons why the flu, though something to keep a close eye on, is not to be as feared as it once was. Nutrition, general population health and hygiene to name a few.
Now, I'm not against vaccines, keeping a close eye on the flu strains and even putting out warnings when necessary, however the 2009 swine flu scare was not a media scare, it was a Pharmaceutical scare. They had ramped up the scaremongering, production and used their influence in the WHO to make huge profits.
With the scaremongering and WHO feeding the frenzy, countries had no choice but to buy in and buy in WAY TOO MUCH. Even if the scare is fake, if all other countries are buying vaccines, not buying them could kill a political career.:) I've gone and started on the subject... like I said, there is much still to be said about this subject.
At 1% CO2 in the atmosphere almost everyone would constantly feel drowsy. And 2-3% (20000 to 30000 ppm) most, if not, everyone would be sick.
CO2 IS toxic at 1% and more. But 0.03% is not 0.03% and your last line of alarmism speaking of 2-3% is typical of your kind. Which is why we call your kind alarmists.
You take a problem, which has yet to be proven, exaggerate it and try and put the fear of god into peoples minds for no apparent reason than to project your own fear of who knows what.
With IP camera's now. (All HD camera's are IP camera's), you can have them connected to more than one NVR (Network Video Recorder) simultaneously.
So its easy to have one setup in house and another at the neighbors (through the Internet or over a hard line Ethernet connection if it inst further than 333 feet)
About the phone integration, with IP phone systems there are multiple things that can be done via scripting from the switch to external applications.
He's a technology geek, with lots of money. Has a charity foundation that's trying to find ways to help the other 80% of this earths population.
The #1 thing to help those people is to get them ENERGY.
So he invests in groups, companies, people to find solutions. That's what foundations do.
And as someone else mentioned, did you read the interview? I has very good points and insights even if some of them have been obvious to the geek/. crowd.
I just bought an IPAD at Futureshop in Canada. Had them throw in a 30$ protector for free and I also got the 140$ 3 year warranty for the 2 year price of 80$.
You just have to try. Electronic stores are everywhere, if they dont budge, then tell them to shove it and go elsewhere.
I agree, but then I dont like that public funds are controlled by groups put in place by public representatives, that are controlled by banking interests.
I dont like that the UN is controlled by the IMF.
I dont like that everything in this world is controlled by the banks and big money holders.
So the money comes from oil industries or from the public (which means bank controlled interests), makes no difference, on side is just as bad as the other.
If I'm a scientist, and my conclusions are that that there is no climate change, or that the change is natural and not anthropogenic or again that there is another driving factor, or even that the change isn't as drastic as some claim and that the consequences aren't as bad or bad as being touted by other scientists.
I want to publish, further my studies, keep on researching.
What do I care who funds me? If the oil industry wants to fund me and leaves me to my own conclusions, does that mean my study is wrong?
We know for a fact that anything global warming or climate change is being funded left and right like crazy. If you study ANYTHING under the sun, but find an excuse to link it to AGW, BAM, funded.
If I'm a scientist having a hard time finding funding because of the current "Green religion mob mentality" I'll turn to whoever wants to give me money and be damned what you guys think.
IMO and my view, scientists funded by the IPCC, the UN and any "EnviroNUT group like greenpeace" looks just as bad as it does for those on the other side that see skeptics funded by the oil or coal industries.
I would say there are more like 40 000 under the radar hackers employed by corporations that did or did not attain notoriety but never got linked to their real life name.
Your comment is completely useless without your location.
Its obviously not the US and Ontario is the only place in Canada where its above 10$.
If you are talking about Europe, then you are comparing appels and watermelons. Local costs of living means allot, as well as local minimum wages.
14$ an hour + benifits (ANY BENIFITS) is pretty damn good for any retail job. Save for a few exceptions, benifits do NOT come with retail floor jobs. 14$ is usually reserved for Ass. Managers or Managers depending on the chains.
There is a reason you find teenagers and young adults manning the stations at retail stores. Its a steeping stone, not a career.

How very convenient...
They cant if you setup your emails to require a read, reception and delivery receipt.
And the AWG response to those people in Africa is : fuck off and die because we wont allow you to have an industrial revolution like we did. (from lack of cheap energy).
If you have 1 grain of sand in a pool.
And 26 years later you have TWO grains of sand.
That's a 100% increase.
Would you notice? Would it make a difference to your filtration system?
Percentages can be made to LOOK impressive... but they aren't always so.
So, 0.003675% of a 12 oz coffee.
12 oz = 497655.6 milligrams
0.003675% of 497655.6 mg is 18.28 mg.
So out of "roughly" HALF A MILLION milligrams 18mg would be sewage.
I highly doubt anyone would notice.
Thats a good incentive. I like the idea :)

There is so much to say about the latest swine flu fiasco I wont get into it in details, because its a much too long converstation.
However, 18000 deaths for a seasonal flu is just par for the course and also much below average.

You really have no idea what you are talking about.
First, you are off the subject of the person you are replying to.
Second, your statement about science is false on all counts.
then stfu and let others speak.
Try 0.01% and 0.02 to 0.03%.
Your numbers are... to say it lightly WAY OFF.

We have diesel vechiles in Canada and it goes to -40F here. They all start fine.
In the 80's it was a problem but not with modern diesel engines.

Ignorance, does not a point make.
You are wrong.
You can haggle anything, anywhere.
If you dont try, you just wont know...

And there arent similar interests to implement carbon credits and carbon trading?
I agree, but then I dont like that public funds are controlled by groups put in place by public representatives, that are controlled by banking interests.
I dont like that the UN is controlled by the IMF.
I dont like that everything in this world is controlled by the banks and big money holders.

And you think public funding isnt controlled by those that control the public representatives?
He didint lie, they are taking a statement from 2003, then putting it against the findings of his funding from 2005 and 2010...
So what?
If I'm a scientist, and my conclusions are that that there is no climate change, or that the change is natural and not anthropogenic or again that there is another driving factor, or even that the change isn't as drastic as some claim and that the consequences aren't as bad or bad as being touted by other scientists.

40 000?
I doubt there are 40 in prison for "cybercrimes".
I would say there are more like 40 000 under the radar hackers employed by corporations that did or did not attain notoriety but never got linked to their real life name.
I cant fathom how you got modded up.
Its a good piece of history, but it was a technical problem with a technical solution.
There was nothing social about it.
Your comment is completely useless without your location.

Global warming was definitely mentioned and setup as one of the major problems.
I would suggest you actually read the article.
