The way you think about issues don't define whether you're right or left. The way you think about issues is just a product of whether you're right or left.
You can't describe yourself as a fiscal conservative and a pro-corporate social liberal. Those are your conclusions about the issues that flow from what you are. Don't tell us what you conclude, tell us what you are and that will explain WHY you make the conclusions.
It drives me nuts when people think in such a shallow fashion and then wonder how a thinking person can believe in some particular idea.
Suppose somebody named Imad, who is an American citizen, attends the camp and then blows himself up in a bar two months later. Is this really a good idea?
We should not take chances with this. Lives are at stake.
If you don't like the product or the company, don't buy their product. Simple, no?
Anything beyond that is whining, and overstepping your boundaries. People should be free to do as they like, and that includes business people. If they want to upset their customers, who are YOU to tell them that they can't?
Inferior when measured against what? Oh wait, that must be US. As in, the USA. And last I checked, we're still here (just got to keep it safe from Hillary and Captain haircut).
More like the 600 ship navy and the other programs of Ronald Reagan. He was a great man who led us to victory in the cold war, may he RIP. Of course, it helped that the enemy that we faced was morally bankrupt and couldn't have possibly won the cold war.
There's people who do, and there's people who die. There's people who teach kids to do, and there's people who teach kids to die. Second place is for losers.
And what's wrong with child labor? Don't chain them to machines, that's what liberals always bring up whenever it's suggested that kids ought to learn some discipline and work skills. Nope, teach kids the meaning of honest work and the honest dollar. When else should people know about honesty? When they are older, they're going to have to know about dishonest work and earning money in the way of the *real* world. The kids that aren't as smart will just go on with their belief in honest work, and that makes them good workers.
Culture is an activity for people who are completely unsuited to work. There's always a few of them around, but don't create more. They're unproductive, and usually liberal. Useless beggars, in my opinion.
I don't know about having the privileged class assist schools. For our schools to succeed, they need to do it themselves. Maybe the fact that a sponsor with deep pockets was in the mix is also the reason the school failed. Just like a liberal welfare program, unless your own money is on the line, there's no incentive to do better.
And now the school property is just going to expand the existing public indoctrination system. Very sad.
1) forwarding sucks. Why? I don't know. But if I can't tell if it's coming from a legitimate server, it sucks. 2) Chapstick doesn't prevent spam either. Why didn't you mention that?
The increase in bounces started a bit more than a week ago. I've noticed it at my domains too.
The problem now isn't the spam, it's the morons who send bounce notifications to forged e-mail addresses. It's the morons who set vacation autoresponders. It's the morons who ask for human confirmation that the mail isn't spam. It's the virus scanners that send their crap to forged e-mail addresses.
Why don't people realize that the word "Symantec" in an e-mail is for me a 100% indication that the mail is from a Russian cocksucker? Or a "Macaffe" in the header is probably from some slant-eye who can't administer his windows box on a giant Korean spam network conduit? Talk about fucking a brand name. Just hearing the word "Symantec" gives me hives these days.
How do you know Eta Carinae went supernova during that specific time? We're seeing as it existed 7500 years ago. We're not sure, from what we can see with our eyes right now, that it doesn't depict a supernova 10,000 years from exploding. If that's true, then we'll see the supernova 17,500 years from now.
No, it's not a good thing. In the old days, an incorrect fact or overzealous reporter was dealt with properly. An apology was printed, and the reporter was disciplined or fired.
But this event is not only threatening CBS news, it's threatening the entire coverage of the memos from every source, and it's going to let GW Bush get away with his lousy service record. There should be such a thing as proportionality in punishment.
And one more thing: Dan Rather should not escape deserved criticism here. A reporter is not primarily someone who blows stories wide open with the kind of grandiose scoop that he attempted with the memos. A reporter is someone who asks questions. How many times have you heard any reporter ask "Mr. President. Can you explain how you arranged to serve an extra 6 months in exchange for an honorable discharge, despite your poor performance records?"
NOBODY is asking those questions. And you know what? I blame the journalists, Dan Rather, and all the rest. Think of your college days. Think of who the medical students, the physics majors, the ee majors, the political science majors, and the biology majors were. Those were all pretty damn smart people, right?
Now, think of who the journalism majors were. I rest my case.
Won't work, because the solution requires all consumers to act in unison, at the same time, consistently. In the end, the environment will still be trashed.
I'd like to second the oppinon of the author about the term blog. I find that term to be almost as anoying as "the information super-highway."
So much that was hip 4 years ago is old now. The word 'blog' is only the tip of the iceberg. If I worked at a company named like the following, I'd be embarassed.
I think that instead of shaping up the news media, blogger attacks are just going to make them more timid. I can't remember the last time I was watching a news conference and when someone asked something I shouted at the TV "that was a DAMN FUCKING good question."
Most of the questions asked nowadays are softball questions. "Mr. Bush, are you going to let Mrs. Bush decorate the Oval Office, or will you hire an outside decorator. And what would you like the voters to know about that decision?"
Now that Dan Rather went out on a limb and got burned, nobody else is going to go out on a limb. That means that nobody is ever going to ask Mr. Bush where the WMD are, where Osama is, how many have to die, did you really do coke at Camp David, and why the hell aren't we doing anything about the Sudan, Iran, or North Korea?

Actually, all that I have to do is to find YOUR gadget for finding lost gadgets.
You're forgetting one detail. We're going to drop a bomb on their head during their victory celebration. And, we're going to steal their camels.
Plus, we're going to steal their culture and their food and sell it at Disney World.
In some cases, the good are the strong, and the strong are the good. If that frightens you, maybe you're not a part of either group.

I know it, they had ALMOSt perfected the FOUR ASSED MONKEY. And it blew up. So sad.

That was the comment I was going to write, but you beat me to it.

By millions I was talking about the total lifespan of the star.
But it's cool that eta car is all the way up to nitrogen. When does it blow up? After it's burned all the way down to iron?
1) forwarding sucks. Why? I don't know. But if I can't tell if it's coming from a legitimate server, it sucks.
2) Chapstick doesn't prevent spam either. Why didn't you mention that?
SPF isn't supposed to do anything like what you claim. SPF is supposed to help with Joe Jobs. Do you know what that is?
False. I have had SPF records for years, and got about 5000 bounces last week from forgeries.

I have read the article. Been reading about eta car for the last 15 years or so.
Are the theories seriously fucked if there's an error of 7000 years over the lifespan of millions? (for that type of star)?
How do you know Eta Carinae went supernova during that specific time? We're seeing as it existed 7500 years ago. We're not sure, from what we can see with our eyes right now, that it doesn't depict a supernova 10,000 years from exploding. If that's true, then we'll see the supernova 17,500 years from now.
We could be waiting to see this supernova theoretically about as long as the pyramids have been standing over the sands of Egypt.
It's a shame that your formatting is screwed up, because those are some good points.
