No when they realized that stupid people were getting confused when they got hit by a big winter storm. "Dang it's cold!

The idea that destabilizing an equilibrium leads to extremes in both directions is too big a concept for people who can't correctly say how long it takes the earth to go around the sun.
Well matter also went in, in the form of Deuterium, and less matter comes out in the form of Helium. The difference is released as energy. A self sustaining reaction would at least break even in that the amount of energy needed to start the reaction would at least balance the amount produced by the matter difference.
Maybe that wasn't the objective in electing him.I know that personally how he would alter our image abroad had very little to do with why I voted for him.
Any indiscriminate violence against civilian targets is a crime, and was a crime during WWII as well. My point is that we treat the atomic bombings as somehow different and worse then the firebombings of Tokyo, or the firebombing of Dresden, or the rape of Nanking, and that this difference in perception, in my observation, allows Japanese society to look back on the war and see only their at worst own victimization and at best a kind of moral relativism cloaked in pacifism
Whether or not they actually had the power and the support of the populace, they had just done a great job convincing the US in Okinawa that they were going to fight over every inch of land in a fanatic manner. With the evidence of the Okinawan campaign and the mass suicides of civilians on Saipan, military planners decided that shock was a better tactic then fighting schoolchildren armed with spears. I have often thought, after living in Japan, that the atomic bombs were both the best and worst possible outcomes. Best, because Japan ended the war with the home islands more or less untouched, enabling a quick post war recovery, whereas an invasion would have left untold devastation. Worst, not because of the deaths (though tragic, they were no more tragic than the death in the firebombing of Tokyo, a perfectly conventional atrocity), but because it allowed postwar Japan the perfect excuse to not examine it's own atrocities in the war.
Yes, but a kindle always looks like a kindle and can be turned off or switched to another book, while a physical book has a cover, complete with ripping bodices and whatnot.
Only time my train was ever delayed while I lived there it was due to a small earthquake. It's just easier to assume the trains will be exactly on time. Maybe JR Shikoku handles rain better than other areas?
It's not so much that you aren't allowed to win as that you can do nothing statistically speaking to keep the casino's from making money in the long run. If you are gambling for the purpose of 'beating the house' in some long run sense you are doing it wrong.
I often wonder what people mean when they say things like this. What viewpoint are people settling on in the article I read today about combustion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustion ? Or yesterday's featured article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Cranmer ?
You can go find an edit war or some other form of abuse, but the vast majority of articles are more like the ones above. I you go looking at the article on creationism and then exclaim in shock and amazement that people are fighting over it you are being a bit disingenuous. Most of the things I look up don't fall into that category though. I am far more worried by the trend to deletionism then worried about the quality of the articles that are actually there.

Indeed, for an even more recent example, look for 'Reconstructionist Judaism'.
Just think if you were forced to buy them iPhones...
Because you know it's not like they have sold soda in liters here since before I was born or anything...

Only the best bad movie ever made. There are some movies that are so bad they go all the way around and become awesome.

It is ultimately easier, faster and cheaper to have a guy with a rock hammer and a good eye, more or less the way they have always done it.

illegal to sell..unless you tape it.
One could argue the market is currently in the process of working it out, just not in a way you would like.
And this is the reason I will never buy one of these devices.
Wait, you have law enforcement agents? We are just stuck with cops here.
It's generally an alligator in your pool, since crocs prefer salty or brackish water.
Mine for what, battleships?
Yes, except it isn't a lens...
It's good to know that slashdot readers continue to ignore TFA.

The fossils in Naples are migratory. They come down from Ontario and Chicago in winter.
