Sure, global warming will create more arable land in Greenland... but only at the expense oflosing arable land in the desert formerly known as Iowa and similar temperate regions.
Actually some models show the upper midwest would be arable year round, instead of just during the spring/summer/fall.
And then there are those models that show us getting f'ed over by glaciers...
Nope. Just another chance for Michael to feed us his left wing nut job viewpoint. See the dupe he posted earlier.
Does anyone credible seriously disagree that emissions from human activity are at least in part contributing factors? No, most people don't. But the disagreement is about how much of the problem is human related, and this is still extremely unclear.
Sounds like perfect preparation for being president someday to me
So, you think the problem with the school system is what exactly? The system is horribly flawed, but you clearly have some insight on to what the actual causes are.
Please spread your wisdom! I'm assuming it has to do with the lack of funds and those EEVIL right wing nuts, right?
The US School system needs a f'en major overhaul. The money is there (we're #2 in the world in public funding per student behind Sweden).
The system is just horseshit. No responsibility, teachers can't teach, kids are a bunch of bastards, and the parents are taking absolutely no responsibility for the kids.
Oh yes that's so insightful. God, give me a fucking break. The election wasn't stolen. Kerry was a horrible candidate. Someday maybe you'll look outside your little bubble and talk to some people who don't share your leftist values.
Your logic is flawed. You compare the valid voter fraud in the Ukraine to lazy, uninformed voters in America.
And, actually, if you want to talk about "lazy" voters: the laziest group of voters in the US is most likely the one that you are a part of, 18-25 year olds.
Anyways, have fun distorting reality to fit your narrow views! Bush won Florida and Ohio. Get the fuck over it and start working on how to gain senate/house seats in 2002 election. If the left doesn't get in shape soon, the Repubs will have a filibuster proof lead in the Senate and then you guys will really be in trouble.
Governments have been overthrown for less than a small time political player asking for an example of how easy it would be to tamper with the voting system?

We use Pentium 2s on some of our embedded systems, but by the time 2006 rolls around we'll be done using them. Our newer embedded systems use Pentium 3s.
Actually, some of our basic systems (that we ship on a regular basis) still use plain old Pentiums running @ 200MHz. The processor is basically permanently attached to the board it comes on. It's amazing how small of heatsink it requires.
The difference being that one of the **AAs could easily jump in on my bittorrent experience, which is not the case when I'm grabbing files from the (non-ISP provided) newsgroup server.
And my bittorrent client displays bits per second.
Hmmm... interesting thought there when it is in fact the opposite.
If we take out the "miracle work" much of what is present in the Chrisitan Bible, Jewish Torah, and Muslim Quran is just a record of what was happening in their at the time. A lot of the text in these books simply contain accounts of historical events.
Back when I was in 'Nam (last month), the cybercafes I went to all used one or more anonymizing proxies to "free" their connections from governmental filters.
And this does what exactly? When the government can simply monitor the traffic between the cyber cafe and the proxy?
Which I'm sure they already do since all the data has to first run through government controlled telcom centers.
As in, he did nothing to set up the safety procedures he should have.
He's the chairman of a company. It's not his job to make sure that plants are properly mopped and valves are fixed and replaced. Strangely enough there are people with job titles like "Plant Supervisor".
See, a company is not like a bee hive. There isn't just one queen bee and thousands of worker bees. There are many queen bees. And the super Queen bee can't spend time holding the hands of all the management people that are below him and double and triple check their work.

But of course the answer is more money!
The original writeup I sent mentioned that the Disney movie was where the name came from. The (communist?) slashdot editors chopped it off.
It's strangely similar to Russia calling it's newspaper "Pravda" which meant "Truth". Accoona Matata = "No Worries"

America is the world's largest consumer market. China merely has the most people.

BECAUSE THERE ARE DIFFERENT LAWS GOVERNING THOSE STANDARDS
