Fewer hurricanes means global warming is over (or at least it peaked). What a relief!
Either that or global warming believers just make wild claims without regard to reality.
Ouch.
So much for my high regard for 5 digit slashdot userID posters.
All member states of the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Association) recieve inspections. Optionally the UN may request that the IAEA inspect a country. this is all a part of thier charter which you can read on IAEA's website
Phew!
I'm glad I'm wrong. What a deep sigh of relief that Isreal, France, the U.K. and the United States have been using their spent reactor fuel for peacefull purposes only. I thought they had all been somewhat naughty. Here I was thinking blue helmeted U.N. inspectors with an open mandate wouldn't be warmly welcome at classified nuclear research sites in the U.S. red states.
p.s. Zero of the IAEA signatories allow unfettered access to their most sensitive sites. The IAEA's prime stated purpose is non-proliferation to those states NOT in the club. Therein somewhere lurks a mysterious problem which noone seems able to quite put their finger on.
If I were President, a 2am strike with bunker-buster JDAMs dropped from B-2's, and I'd never say a word, or respond to a question, about it afterwards.
Now you know why I'm not President.
What exactly is wrong with allowing the UN to inspect Iran's nuclear program?
Imagine UN nuclear inspectors wanting to visit YOUR(i.e. US/France/UK/Isreal) sovereign country. The answer would be the same 'not today, thanks'. Plus, how did letting in inspectors help Iraq?
It's amazing to me how the Iraq war was changed the international landscape on these issues.
1) Don't have WMD's? --> get invaded 2) Have WMD's allready? --> fun advantageous negotiations ensue.
Newsflash: nations act in their own intrests. What Iran is doing is a logical adaptation to the new neocon-molded mad world. The nightmare repercussions and damage will take generations to repair, if at all. Do I sound conflicted? I am. But I know what's happened recently and don't like it at all.
Iran intends to use nuclear weapons not only against Israel but against the US and Europe
Where is that information from?
I understand the practical lesson of North Korea and Iraq -- get the bomb ASAP, then you're safe from any western physical intervention and fun advantageous negotions ensue. That's the world now....neat eh?
For goodness sake, you write like you WANT to stir a military intervention up. Funny how Iraq has innoculated us against people like you, eh?
....and use (and recharge) it repeatitily every day. Apart from the crappola Musicmatch software included, my Dell Jukebox has been trouble free, and I've bee happy with it in every regard.
So where do I go for my next mp3 player? (if, heaven forbid I ever do need a replacement)
Bloodly dell, can't even keep doing someting it was good at.
Obviously I didn't proofread my own post. Should read 'better judgement'. That's right, I just took responsibilty and corrected my own mistake. Read into that as much as possible please.
Sometimes? Sometimes? Are you sure that's the word you want to ascribe? People with worse judgement than Dvorak have been summarily ignored for the rest of their life. Why he hasn't yet is a peculiar lag....intrinsic to his place of work(and a whole subject in to itself)
"Our only big gripe is the bootup speed, which takes about twice as long as Ubuntu on this same machine."...so to answer the last question of the blurb, no.

I'll be the someone you're referring to. Buddy....read your own info.
Vivaldi is gonna be pissed about all concerti he has to re-arrange.
