  1. Won't help. They've got some sort of brain infection, no matter how many times /. editors are replaced, it's the same shit.

    Duh, the only thing cops do for most people is fill out a form so you can make a claim with your insurance. They are USELESS.

    You're too stupid to be a boss. WTF are you doing speaking of such things? Are you 14?

    Deniability is important, some things are just never said.

    Cruelly, the bribe flow into the Clinton charity went to 0 right when she has time for it. It's almost looks like she was selling influence, but we all know that's unpossible.

    Hint: 'Accidently' posting any 'trade secrets' to the net before quitting renders them 'not secret', but watch the audit trails. Do it from the PHBs desk.

    Write 'I don't agree' (somewhat legibly) on the confidentiality agreement/non-disclosure/non-compete signature line and hand it across the table. They NEVER check.

    The contents of my brain are my property. The main problem aren't genuine 'trade secrets', it's that employers want to define completely standard approaches like 'iterative processes' as theirs. If you sign, you've agreed to that, they have shysters on staff, you can't afford to fight it.

    Unless you're talking about solar, then your capacity factor cannot be higher than the locations average radiance. Which is 6 hours (25%) in the sunniest places on the planet. (Which isn't to say it only shines for 6, but that the solar power over a day is equal to 6 full brightness hours.)

    You are in luck.

    /. has both men with breasts and men who swallow cum. So elements of this population can test if swallowing cum prevents breast cancer in men, like it does in women.

    Take your Ds, if you're a middle aged or older man. About 1000% RDA. It's toxic at extreem doses...reading amature docter magazine is no substitute for medical school + residency...don't listen to me...doctor, doctor, doctor.

    At this point it's been studied. Prostate cancer is unique, slow enough growing that normal treatment is 'watchful care' or some such weasel words for 'do nothing'.

    So they can do ethical studies with Vitamin D. Short version, it appears to work very well. 1000% RDA is the estimated dose a dark skinned person, with few clothes that spends most of the day in the tropical sun gets. Makes 'old man slow prostate cancer' just go away or slow way down, until they have time to die of something else.

    Talk to your doctor. Don't take medical advice from web forums.
