I guess it's the operative question, if, for some bizarre reason, the only person whose behavior you wish to review is Obama's. Why is this about him exactly?
The Fed guy at Goldman was right. Reality doesn't matter. In spite of the numerous replies pointing to the large number of inaccuracies, the post is still modded +5 Informative. In a world where the majority of people find false information "informative", what good is a moderation system?
It is a well known fact that Bush's Treasury Secretary, Henry Paulsen, who railroaded the wall street bailout through congress, was a former Goldman Sachs CEO. It is unfortunate that very little changed under Obama, but the article is primarily discussing conditions prior to and during the 2008 financial collapse, before Obama was even elected.
My opinion is that there would have been a benefit in having those directly responsible suffer the most so that they would be a warning to future crooks (err, I mean businessmen) and for us all to suffer a little so society learns to not let organizations get `too big to fail`.
How about a third alternative, given that there were very likely multiple violations of existing law? Charge those directly responsible and sentence them to appropriate jail time along with hefty fines. Oh who am I kidding, laws are made for poor folk.
One thing I've found difficult to discover is what fraction of the US is purely European.
I don't think you read the article. Since 0% of Europeans are purely European, it seems unlikely the fraction of the US that is purely European would be any larger than that. In general, the only cases where there are persons who are 100% purely a member of any genetic group are identical twins (and triplets, etc.)
Now if only they could make the OS worth buying rather than forcing it on people that buy non-OSX prebuilt systems.
You do realize desktop Linux distros have been unbelievably easy to install (or even run from a Live CD) for the last decade or so don't you? Nobody has been "forced" into using Windows just because it happened to ship as the default for a very long time.
And yet it doesn't stop them from charging you for it.
a) false. You had to have your device set to allow automatic pushes.
Which is, of course, the default.
And, if I'm not mistaken, Apple defaults to downloading anything less than 100MB over cellular data. Which could be quite costly to people on more expensive data plans.
This exact thing happened to a family member. The do not ever purchase music or media through iTunes, so why not leave the default? The only thing that should ever come across are maybe software updates.
I wonder how much of a kickback Apple got from T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon, etc. for this stunt.
It's wavelength dependent. visible light will blind people but for the military combat lasers they probably use wavelengths that the eye is opaque to, meaning no focusing on the retina and damage due to minor scatter and reflections, but will still literally cook the eye if directly exposed.
So doc, you're saying I'll still be able to see perfectly well out of my cooked eyeball then? And will I also be able to play the piano after this "procedure"?
Stating that climate change had an impact is neither the same as attributing it as the single cause, nor the same as equating climate with weather. If you expect climate change to never have an impact on weather, then either your definition of weather or your definition of climate is very flawed.
If climate != weather, then why is there always some global warming advocate on the news attributing every hurricane, tornado, drought, and heat wave to global warming? It seems to me that a more accurate representation of what I'm seeing on the news would be:

Stop getting your news from shitty sources. On NPR news, this doesn't happen. Though for some reason, I have heard conservatives consider NPR to have a liberal bias. As to your second question, I have heard the nutty right wing rant of the jews control the media, but never heard that the scientists control the media.
But as soon as you're going out to do any actual good work in the name of feminism, you're going to need a broader definition, one that opens it up for criticism.
But you still live in a world where a woman is very much more likely to be denied the rights which a man has easy access to than the other way around. For the most part, the differentiation you are insisting on is only applicable in a fantasy world which does not, as yet, exist.
Half of your argument is missing. You need the revenues collected information ("taxes per head"). If you get that and do the math, then you've got something.
None. I watch sports sporadically. Maybe a dozen NFL games, and once in awhile a special event like the Olympics or World Cup. However, I'm old enough to remember when that content was paid for purely by advertising. Now it still has advertising, so for me, the perceived value of being able to see these sports programs is pretty low. Certainly much much less per month than I pay for Netflix.
I think it was the "can't imagine" part of the picture he was asking about, actually. I find it odd too. You would expect that someone with such a poor imagination could very easily be replaced by a machine these days.

You're an asshole. Oh, wait, let me apologize. I'm sorry you're an asshole.
There, everything is better now, right?
What the fuck is a "real" name? All names are made up... or were, at some point in time.

I've been watching Trailer Park Boys on Netfilx, so I assume Netflix is contributing something back to the pot.

Just a guess here. You've never even seen a picture of a NY city sidewalk, have you?
Then you fail at reading comprehension. From the title, a belief in climate change can be assumed, but not that the drought is evidence for it.
No. The article you linked to did not at all state that the drought in Texas was evidence of global warming.

This is only true if you haven't been looking, as far as I can see.
But as soon as you're going out to do any actual good work in the name of feminism, you're going to need a broader definition, one that opens it up for criticism.
Why, exactly, would that be?

You don't need a dna sample or a computer program to get the point of origin of any persons ancestors. The answer is always the same: Africa.

And some bodies passed biology 40 or more years ago, and then biology passed them.
So you're saying a process which creates more variability will make a particular population be more the same as each other. Right. That makes sense.
