  1. Re:Rule #1 on How the Lessons of Columbine Saved Lives At Arapahoe High School · · Score: 1

    In Israel, ... they don't have school shootings.

    In US school is part time prison where if someone beats you and you don't resist it's OK. If you complain, nobody cares, and if you resist, both sides of conflict are considered equally guilty. The only way out is to suffer through these years or get a gun and shoot everyone. In Israel they seem to care and to control the psychological state of students, and bullies get their ass full of Ritalin in no-time.

    kitchen knives

    It's actually illegal to carry a kitchen knife out of your house in Israel. Even in the trunk of your own car going to barbecue. And you know, how most people get criminal injuries on the streets? They get stabbed with a knife. Limiting the right to own a lethal weapon limits only the law abiding citizens. Criminals will have what they need anyway.

    Most of the new development was carried in Kyiv, Ukraine. But Moscow had a technology to grind x86 chips slice by slice to reverse engineer Intel technology. So they send a committee from Moscow to Kyiv to choose a path for the industry for the next decade. Due to enmity between russians and ukrainians committee chose to continue with grinding and reverse engineering and the development of own technologies was canceled. Some years later Intel launched 80386 with 3D chip structure and russians were unable to guess its schematics like it was with 8086/88 and 80286.

    Maybe your provider keeps "static" IPS separate from "dynamic IPs". Mine appearently doesn't (just assigns me one of his IPs as static). Or the RBLs are too ignorant to learn about static and dynamic IP ranges of smaller countries like the one I live in (Spain, Europe).
    It's your provider responsibility to investigate and remove such blocks from your IP. Unless block triggers after remote mail server received your message and checked it with some sort of Bayes filter.

    I'm not saying that there aren't more cancers around Chernobyl, particularly thyroid cancers, but I am saying that there's a heck of a lot of cancer everywhere anyway.

    And all people living in Ukraine are/were Ukrainians? There were no Russians or rusified Ukrainians? I was under the impression that huge Russian minorities in all (former) member states were the main obstacle on the way to full independence (or was it majorities in some of them?). Belarus being the example of full reversal of this process.

    Oh, you mean that russians? They are ukrainians too. :)

    Russian minorities are not the main obstacle. Russian-speaking part of population are. They are instruments of Russian government to put pressure on neighbour states (which were part of Soviet Union). Baltic states, Ukraine, Moldova, Central Asia states, we all live under this pressure. And where weak spot found by Russia, that place they hit hard. (Remember recent border conflict around Tusla island.)

    PS Some misunderstanding may have risen from the fact that I rarely use the term ``Soviet Union''. For me it was just a Russian Empire, no different from before 1918. The only thing that changed was ``royal family''. It was neither soviet, nor union, just Russia and its colonies.

    We here in Ukraine don't like to be called russians and don't like when someone call Ukraine like "Malorossia" or "part of Matushka Rossia".

    Not that I don't like Russian people -- they are as good or as bad as Germans or Canadians. Or any other nation, for that matter. But the Russia-state seems to be cursed to me. Ruled by madmen for centuries with its citizens paying the bill of blood for their leaders.

    Have you been in Moscow? There you will find that you a greatly mistaken about "they are as good or as bad as Germans or Canadians". :(

    I asked my friend from Khabarovsk (Russia, Far East): "Do you know someone, who died or going to die because of cancer?", "No", he reply, "Why?".


    Here in Ukraine everyone knows someone, who died of cancer, and it wasn't before a Chernobyl.

    This may surprise you, but most of people that secured reactor were volunteers. Firemen, soldiers and miners from all over the country were there of their own will despite knowing that they will probably die.

    This nicely shows that Russia was not only Evil Empire but also a home, ``matushka rassyia'' for millions of people.


    What are you talking about? There were no volunteers from Russia. Only from Ukraine.
