    None of which seems to prove the claim that the woman in question was having sex with lots of people.

    I don't see a reference there to your claims on that page.

    Do you actually have some references of any kind at all?

    Reference-less accusations seem to prove the article's point.

    For non-relativistic calculations, Newtonian mechanics remain a useful set of formulas. Relativity didn't replace Newtonian mechanics so much as subsume it.

    The irony is that anatomically modern humans were stuck in the same kind "stasis" for tens of thousands of years as well. Modern human anatomy predates the earliest signs of modern human behavior by something like 40k to 50k years.

  9. Re:Neanderthals = Humans on Researchers Say Neanderthals Created Cave Art · · Score: 1

    Most of the objections stemmed from the lack of mtDNA evidence, though there could have been some old biases leaking in. For a long time Neanderthals were seen as subhuman, more ape than man.

    But the nuclear genetic evidence is irrefutable; there is Neanderthal and Denosovian genes in pretty much all the human populations outside of Subsaharan Africa.

    Putin is pushing, because the West is pulling back. Some blame can be laid at Obama's feet, though I don't think anyone would want a President who went around making threats of open warfare. A lot of blame can be laid at the EU's feet, for inspiring the revolution, and then getting weak-kneed when the Russians became belligerent.

    One thing is awfully clear. If you're an Eastern European nation with even a handful of ethnic Russians in your territory, you have a serious problem.

    Perhaps it served some other purpose in the shallow swamps where such fish evolved, and it could be co-opted to movement on land.

    Not to mention the fantastic Dune/Star Trek crossover.

    A lot of people who complain about government are people who would like to terminate most, if not all, labor protections. They bury that desire in ideological ruminations, and have convinced vast legions of rubes that the only good government is a non existent government, and somehow the magic of market forces will protect workers.

    I agree completely. When I first started using an dreaded (an old LG keyboard phone with a JavaME spun reader I had hacked on to it) I found reading a bit of a chore. It took me a few days to get really comfortable with the seemingly small and yet ultimately pricing differences. Now I regularly read books on my smartphone and tablet without a hitch, and have noticed no recall problems.
