The/. poll seems especially relevant. The US government is like Windows: it almost seems designed to work better with a reinstall every so often. However, this will not happen, so we'll just get more bogged down with spyware from the NSA and faulty antivirus from Congress.
But lower crime will definitely NOT lead to less police officers actually being out there. More crime = need more officers to combat this threat! Less crime = need more officers to keep it this way!
Where in the Herald article does it say they used RIAA-owned music in this CD? Is it impossible that one or both of them knows a local musician who thought "Oh, cool! The president will hear my music!" and authorized the copy?
Sounds like this guy is trying a wee bit too hard for publicity.
The lake hadn't been there 30 years ago, as stated by grandparent. IIRC, we were to blame for global cooling about 30 years ago.
Significant Human Interaction Theory, or SHIT: Back then, CFCs and other particulates caused the water to condense into a lake. Now your car exhaust has caused the water to warm and evaporate. Cycle of life.
Can't they co-exist? I use an FM transmitter for a CD player in my car because I'm too cheap to buy a new stereo. Anyone who happens to be within its range, which is maybe 20 feet, is perfectly welcome to have a listen.
I would like to see a little bit reserved for such non-licensed radios. I've gone through the presets on my transmitter, and the only interference-free setting in this town is 87.7MHz. When I travel, that changes. I know the only real way to get spectrum is to shell out, but it would be nice to have a small frequency range for low-power, low-range personal radios.
Hopefully, if there actually WAS a difference in intelligence based on skin, it wouldn't be hushed for fear of sounding racist/nazi/un-PC.
But it probably would be: being diplomatic is more important today than finding the truth, right? I'm not saying that there is or isn't a difference, but any findings that support one WOULD be disregarded and/or attributed to the white supremacist agenda.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the civil engineers responsible for maintaining 64 miles of tunnel in an international setting if it is indeed built.
Most have not seen any proof of it. Most have an extremely difficult time understanding or explaining it. About half the people believe in it, and the other half are quite hostile.
Is "it" evolution, or God? I think it takes about the same amount of faith, whether it's some powerful man in the sky or some incredibly slow, yet constantly happening biological process.
"I don't live in the US, so don't blame me for not having a perfect understanding of your legal system"
I doubt that even very many of the people responsible for creating and interpreting the US legal system understand it perfectly. Not even blaming apathy or ignorance: it is pretty frickin complicated!
In a rational world, that would be wonderfully democratic. The problem is inertia. In the US, at least, the Democrats and Republicans have come to rely on each other. One doesn't get into power on its own merits, but rather when the other messes up badly enough that the voters (apparently with short memories) think they'll do a better job.
To implement that system would put most of those "public servants" out of jobs, and that's the one thing that both parties can agree to NOT let happen.
Ransom would be if they created a disease only to sell the cure. It costs money to develop drugs. LOTS of money. Money can be exchanged for goods and services.

That's pretty much a given here on

The
China is as much a purely communist state as the US is a purely capitalist state.
And both as much as England is a monarchy.
Good luck finding any pure governmental systems being used these days.

With the difference being that they actually provide a useful service while doing so.

Only pirates are allowed to take part in "boarding operations on the high seas".
The Military can, however, "liberate" vessels.
And so on.
humans can only be the dominate species for so long!

$1,000,000 is quite ambiguous, doesn't specify US legal tender...
Anyone have extra Monopoly sets?

If this goes through, I predict either
a. a step up for rights of minors in schools
or
b. a push by the teacher's unions to revise copyright law
Per your argument, it would have to be sea creatures blasting this sound.
When whales and dolphins have the means to fight back (depleted uranium shells, subs) then I'll start to be worried. Until then, it's primate rule.
Welcome to state radio, comrades. Up next, our government mandated indie music selection!

It's making fun of a proponent of the global warming theory.
On Slashdot.
Alternatively, it may have been that poking fun at Al Gore is like kicking a fawn with broken legs, and he feels sorry for the poor guy.
Even more alternatively, it may be from a deep respect for the man who "took the initiative" in creating the internets.
Or it could even be that after 10 seasons, he's come to expect more out of what is, in the end, a crude cartoon show.
