You're confusing your 'ideology' with 'science'. Just because it's based on science doesn't make it true (which this new insight points out).
Your emotion on the issue betrays your self delusion regarding your own bias.

He was bullying John Kerry by asking some difficult questions? He got drug out, tasered, and arrested - and you aren't concerned? There was no 'inciting a riot' or even disrupting the q/a period at the point which they intervened... Kerry even ANSWERED the god damned questions while the kid was in the hall being tasered. The kid was being an ass, and obviously passionate, but that should not get you drug out of the room, or arrested, or tasered, or anything else - it should get you told by the speaker to sit down and shut up and I'll answer you, or booed by the audience; it's not time to call in the jackbooted thugs to drag the opposition away from the microphone. It more than a little disapponting in several ways.
If you don't want difficult questions, don't open the floor for questions; pick your planted shills from the audience to APPEAR to answer openly. Works for everyone else...
Can't start the "I told you so's" yet - this clay foot colossus still has a long way to fall... Global Warming zealots will be quoting those bad figures for decades to come.
Ok, I admit it - I didn't read the whole article, not very far down it says the other acronym derivatives, and the 'versions' they refer to. But what threw me most was that this article uses a more obscure definition as the standard/latest reference. So I'm not dated; the original author is. And that makes me feel better about me.
...Browser vendors focused on browser features like tabs and Rich Site Summary (RSS) readers...
I thought RSS stood for Really Simple Syndication, did I wake up in a parallel universe this morning?
Or is it like PHP where they threw out the original meaning (Personal Home Page) and replaced it with a shiny new recursive one (PHP Hypertext Preprocessor) once it became popular?
I thought I told everyone to keep me apprised of shit like this so I don't sound so dated talking to my co-workers...
WHY NOT replace the human element, at least as a target? The first side that effectively does so wins. Hey, a generation didn't spend our youths' playing 1st person shooters for nothing. Americans would PAY (apparently around $14.95/month) to run them (so would many others I'm sure, a coalition of the willing, let the market decide), soldiers could hold the line and watch. It would be like sending in the hordes of Celts to soften em up for the orderly ranks who walk in and clean up the mess.
That is, until either Skynet becomes conscious, or The Singularity occurs and machine intelligence (MI) leaves we petty humans behind, or probably keeps breeding stock around just in case somebody fires off a global EMP weapon. But I digress... lets get out of Iran oh dear I mean Iraq (whichever) first.
After all, Eastasia has always been at war with Europa...
"We" just need to make sure they don't do anything rash.
Aren't these the same people who decided they needed warrant-less wiretapping of the entire US citizenry to somehow prevent planes from being piloted into buildings? Once this horde of lawyers puts pen to paper, "rash" is a given - if they filter the ENTIRE internet, what is left to be rash about?
From the article
The measures they are calling for include directing the Federal Communications Commission to identify industry practices "that can limit the transmission of child pornography" and requiring the Federal Trade Commission to form a working group to identify blocking and filtering technologies in use and "identify, what, if anything could be done to improve the process and better enable parents to proactively protect their children online."
Frankly I see nothing that can come from this except MORE well intentioned destruction of civil liberties. There doesn't currently exist any technology to filter an image that contains an image of a 17 year old vs. one that is 18 years old and it is blissful dangerous ignorance to pretend there is.
So soc. security and medicare are the reasons for the debt? Spoken like a complete narcissist who has needed neither yet.
A couple points...
The soc security and medicare funds are what have been robbed by congress repeatedly to pay for other bullshit, like corporate welfare disguised as family farm subsidies and the expansion of the American war machine as an exponential response to a handful of extremists who have yet to even be affected by it (except their growth in numbers and popularity with formerly non-extremists).
The 'around 3 trillion' debt you mention, I believe, is not an annual sum of spending beyond revenue, but a total accrual thus far of debt. However, it is currently about 8.8 trillion.
Carbon dating presumes a constant decay rate in the radioactive isotope Carbon-14, plus its only useful to 45000 years at best, even if the Earth existed then; but I still have faith in constant decay and cosmic ray bombardment rates;)
Why don't we just reorganize the RIAA as another extension of the federal government? They're practically there anyway, and they'd be able to add an RIAA Piracy tax to our paychecks.
"The Federal Intellectual Property Administration" or "Department of Homeland Intellectual Freedom", an extension of the Patent Office maybe?
I guess "Thought Police" would be too blatant.
Should we be worried about acts of intellectual terrorism next?
Background, screensaver, and icon sites are notorious as well, which is why so many naive users who are obviously not regular users of porn nor games tend to contract a constant stream of malware. The so called "free" sites are paid quite handsomely per install by the "marketers" like gator (and later incarnations).
His sister most likely had the message board and chat bug, and contracted the electronic illnesses from icon sites.
Or porn... but despite young men's fantasies, most young women are not into porn or gaming.
One member of the levelheaded camp is Hans von Storch, 57, a prominent climate researcher who is director of the Institute for Coastal Research at the GKSS Research Center in Geesthacht in northern Germany. "We have to take away people's fear of climate change," Storch told DER SPIEGEL in a recent interview. "Unfortunately many scientists see themselves too much as priests whose job it is to preach moralistic sermons to people."
This guy is a layman, huh? Or the journalists who write ALL of the articles?
People who complain in knee jerk fashion without reading TFA set off my bullshit alarm. Can't touch the argument, attack the credibility of the researcher - standard procedure.
Truth is, you wish the opposition to your viewpoint would stfu, otherwise you would have had nothing to say. It's not ignorance, its another valid point of view on the phenomenon of climate change - and in the vast sea of apocalyptic points of view being spat at the entire world on a daily basis, I find it a refreshingly more level headed one.
One of my biggest annoyances with people who question global warming isn't that they think it's not happening or that it isn't us who are contributing to it, but rather the fact that they use these previous statements as an excuse to not do anything about it.
[sarcasm]
Yeah, lord knows we have to get the word out on "global warming" and get people to stop driving so much and stuff. I feel like I need to DO something... like comment on a comment.
[/sarcasm]
Yeah, we need to be concerned about the environment, maintaining it, etc. BUT we are experiencing global warming, ie. global climate shift, and no matter how much corn you put in your gasoline, it is still going to happen because it isn't caused by the lack of corn in gasoline.
There is a growing hysteria involved here, and when the sheeple start running in panic, there is always some jackass ready to run them his way, in order to cash in on it. (See "patriot act", "drug war", and "Iraq occupation" for examples of how good intentions can be manipulated en masse)

Also, 10,000,000 - 1000 = 9,999,000 not 8,999,000. 1st Grade math, friend.
