Actually, the correct quote would be
Four in 10 soldiers said torture should be used if it would save the life of a fellow soldier, said the survey disclosed by the Pentagon Friday. which is quite a different matter. But mentioning that would frame the issue entirely differently. To be perfectly honest, if a certain gang had kidnapped a fmily member or friend, I would have absolutly no problem torturing a known gang member about the whereabouts of said person. OTOH, I have been known to be a vindictive bastard as well.
Are the founding fathers directly responsible for the verdicts of all current or past federal court justices? If you answer no, than why the FUCK are you bringing up the functional equivilent of judaic history?
The palestinian problem is caused mainly by themselves and the surrounding arab countries. Cause I'm pretty damned sure the israelis weren't the ones to take functional producing greenhouses and turn them into military fucking training camps after the Gaza pullout.Not to mention last time I checked, the fucking egyptians were the first to start building walls.
Dammit taco, quit trying to ruin the popular/. meme. You'll have to force these wankers to admit that maybe they're being a teensy weensy bit hypocritical and are acting like a bunch of Rosie O Donnell clones.
That's because the study the article was referencing didn't give out that info dipshit. RTFA
The study, funded by the Department for Education and Skills, looked into 'emotive and controversial' history teaching in primary and secondary schools.
It found some teachers are dropping courses covering the Holocaust at the earliest opportunity over fears Muslim pupils might express anti-Semitic and anti-Israel reactions in class.
The researchers gave the example of a secondary school in an unnamed northern city, which dropped the Holocaust as a subject for GCSE coursework.
How about all fricking three? Of course if they teach about the "israeli colonial oppression" they better damn well have a documentary on Sderot and how the cease-fires are anything but on the paleoswinian side and how israel is mysteriously the only on ever to "break" the cease fire.
Is designed to defeat low caliber rifle rounds, up to.308 depending on the propellant load. To the best of my knowledge there isn't a vest that can reliable stop anything bigger and even stopping a.308 is unlikely.
Y'know, I dislike people like you. Science is NOT a religion, whatever you might make of it. Entire fields have been fundamentally wrong about their area of study before, and will be again. Given that the modern anthropogenic global warming schema is being driven mainly by political funding it is highly possible such is the case here, especially since it's such a young science. Of course, getting the religious fanatics to admit this is next to impossible, and rather disconcerting. Especially given the amount of ostracization that anyone who begins to speak out about the matter experiences.
It is when fast breeder reactors are used. Simply because the resultant products can pretty much be tossed back into the reactor with fresh fuel until you're left with strictly low-level nuclear waste. Of course, there is a side effect of them producing weapons-grade plutonium, but since that is subsequently burned(Yes I realize nuke plants don't actually burn fuel) by the reactor as fuel as long as proper security measures are put in place, there's not a problem.
They also conviniently forget the fact that said batteries are Nickel-Metal Hydrides, and that nickel refining produces shitloads of Sulfur Dioxide resulting in nice friendly acid rain.
? Ehhh, countriism perhaps, but not racism. Had it been racism he probably would have used either chink or asian. Hmmm, any mainland china slurs I left out? Not exactly my forte.
Yes, considering a black hole the size of mars would simply act exactly as mars did gravitationally. The only difference would be that any object that would normally have hit mars would instead be sucked into the black hole's event horizon. This assumes I understand current theory correctly, but i think I'm right.
Eh, at times it has, but that can be said of any major war, and in fact, this one is much, much better than most as it relates to our side fragging civilians.
Um, No? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bench_press You got a not competely in top shape army soldier bench pressing 345 there. And 600 is at a bit under half of the world record for squat. Now, had he claimed to do a couple hundred reps with those numbers, it might be different, but just being able to do those numbers once or twice really isn't all that astounding. Strong? Yes. Pathological liar material? No
True, but getting something as intensive as the Fallout or BG series just doesn't happen lately. Instead you get oblivion, which as a game prety much sucked, but as a tech demo/single player gimped MMO was quite good. Or you get NWN, which had an ok storyline but was still pretty damn linear. Ah well, here's to hoping the expansions will be more like HotU.
Peer review only works if the skeptics are allowed to poke and prod without intereference. Which is not the case with global warming. Given that non of the computer models can properly measure the effects clouds have on the climate, I'm extremely skeptical of any evidence produced thereby. Not to mention apparently we're responsible for a proportionate amount of warming on mars.
True, but those who originally got the key and released it were crackers as it is illegal to initially knowingly release a trade secret. Everybody else just parroted the information, so basically the MIT boys were a poorly updated RSS feed
Quite simple, it's entirely within the presidents purview to fire the attorneys that he did. Perhaps a bit assholish of him, but perfectly legal. This is just being used by the democrats to avoid showing the public their total lack of commitment to their election promises. Of course, given the approval ratings, the public, especially independents, are pretty much seeing through the facade.
Well, to be perfectly precise, that's all a real hacker is. But those who released the key were crackers. Not to be confused with the fucking hilarious racial epithet.
? You mean the deficit which has been shrinking lately? That deficit? Of course, the deficit as it stands is based on cash accounting, and is therefore complete bullshit anyway. Of course, given the nature of said programs, when one calculates the defecit using accrual accounting one finds that the vast fucking majority is caused by SocSec and Medicare. But I guess it would be to much for/.ers to understand basic fucking economics.
Lemmee see if I've got this straight. Firing the entire cadre of lawyers to replace them with your own brown-nosers at the start of your presidential term ISN'T partisan politics, but firing the lowly number of EIGHT 7 years later is? *head explodes*

Last time I checked, it's still pretty fucking easy for me to orgasm. Not so much with FGM.

Eh, If it breaks $100 a barrel coal cracking becomes a more than viable option.
The Jet experiment was a fusion reactor. Albeit an inefficient and relatively unstable one.
