You're lucky your core applications sit in one nice contained window instead of dozens of modeless floating dialogs. Focus-follows-mouse would be pure hell for most graphics folks.
Somewhat like the old Soviet, China takes a longterm view of things. They plan decades in advance. And, if they fail to accomplish their mission in 20 years, nothing prevents them from setting a new goal 10 or 20 years further into the future.
And when Texans brag to non-Texans that their state constitution uniquely grants them the right to secede from the union at any time, we tell them "what are you waiting for?"

I was off on the dates, but it's a long fucking book, with tons and tons of research evident. Then again Michener is well-known for fucking long thoroughly researched books, so maybe he was able to bang it out in a year.
In any event, the main characters (in 1982) spout lots of exposition about why the shuttle program is a dead end that's going to keep anyone from leaving LEO soon, and why nobody is going back to the moon
James Michener's Space> , published in 1982 (and so written during the final years of Apollo), discusses at length the likelihood that manned missions to the moon are over and done with after the end of Apollo. I think it's safe to say that people who were paying attention could see the writing on the wall before Skylab went up.
Well, congress could have passed universal health care and made that problem largely go away; but for some reason the drag on the economy that is private health insurance companies can't be talked about by Republicans for some reason.
I thought the early 90's run starting with Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast,Alladin, etc. and ending abruptly with the disappointment that was Hunchback of Notre Dame can go toe to toe with pretty much anything Disney's put out except for Snow White and Fantasia. I also thought Tangled was absolutely brilliant, and is hopefully the start of another good run.
What are you talking about? My 4-year old and his friends go apeshit over baking. Every preschool in America has baking/cooking in the curriculum, because the kids love it and then everyone gets a snack. It frames planning -> effort -> reward in a way a toddler can immediately get it.
Serious question - is there a codified procedure for dealing with issues the constitution butts up against itself on (e.g. article 1 section 8 vs. 1st amendment) besides having the supremes make a ruling based on a specific case?
There's a long and storied history of people protesting evictions and foreclosures, and frankly, with all the bullshit going on in the current foreclosure mess (robo-signings, banks foreclosing on homes they don't hold a note to, etc.), maybe she's on the right side of history.
I love that game, but I feel like I'm missing something. I get a kilometer or so above the pad and then my stack flips over and augers into the ground. Or just falls apart and explodes on the pad. Did I mention this game is awesome?
1. Psychoanalysis is a WILDLY unpopular form of treatment. Classical analysis has the patient seeing the analyst three times a week or more for years, and is almost never covered by insurance.
2. It's not really possible to do double-blind tests of any talk therapy, any more than it's possible to do double-blind tests of surgical procedures - the practitioner is deeply involved in the treatment. Psychoanalysis is also very difficult or impossible to manualize, which is the next best thing to a double-blind trial of a psychological treatment.
3. That having been said, check out Wilma Bucci's work examining psychoanalysis from a cognitive science perspective. Nancy Andreasen also did some work with PET scans examining the effects of psychoanalysis in the 90's; I'm not sure where that line of inquiry is today.
The gun has two triggers, orange and blue. Each shot creates one portal. After the second shot, whichever trigger you pull deletes the current portal of that color and creates a new one.
When she shot the ceiling she created a new portal (deleting one of the original two), then pushed the bed into the original one remaining. This caused the bed to fall out of the ceiling onto the guard.
Not to mention that Iraq did have a nuclear weapons program before the first gulf war
Disingenuous at best. The destruction of their reactor by the Israelis in 1982 was indeed "before the first gulf war," but long enough before that it doesn't really count. After that, they had amibitions, but no real progress.
Please explain how this would have anything to do with, say, going to a progressive rather than a flat capital gains tax. current 15% up to the first million/year, up to say 75% for personal capital gains over $25 million/year. If anything that tax structure should encourage reinvestment in things that stimulate the real economy and/or pay dividends.
I've never understood this "buy the patent and bury it" meme. For one thing, if something is patented, it's published. Period. For another, patents expire. We should be neck-deep in 100 MPG carbuerators by now.

Windows on a cartridge sure would deter piracy...
Just curious, how does your ISP handle "I can't play World of Warcraft" complaints?
Yes, he's proposing DC transmission lines.
Honest question - what fraction of that 8% of GDP is DoD spending that would evaporate on secession day?
Oblig. erudite Soviet joke:
Why is psychoanalysis like a 5-year plan?
You never get there.

How about if we had helped a a free Afghanistan get on its feet after the Soviets left?

Also, equal protection under the law, etc.
The part you're omitting is the one where the streetlights had to be kept on 24 hours a day in Pittsburgh, and the river caught fire in Cleveland.

Frankly that sounds more like aggravated assault/attempted murder. Try somewhere in the middle.
