The majority is often wrong. To see this, you only have to look to slavery, segregation, anti-semitism, the Iraq war, and Nazi politics among other things.
In times like this you need strong clear leadership from the few in power.
most of us are driving 70-80mph anyways when the limits are 55-65mph...and arbitrarily enforced. Why not just make the limits 85mph and enforce it strictly? Far less ambiguity and stress for the driver. And no need to negotiate down tickets or argue when pulled over.
I hiked around Mt Fuji in 2009. It's a beautiful area surrounded by a nice town and tons of hotels and tourist areas. It's pretty scary that it could pop at any moment. There will be lots of lost life and property if it erupts big.
Why can't all tablets offer $50/yr 250MB/month data plans? I'm sure they're profitable at this rate. They can up sell users as well. $10 per GB over the 250MB monthly allowance will allow us to use more data as needed fora reasonable fee.
Our economy is in the shitter and we're spending money building a menu for Mars? Do we have a launch vehicle? A habitat plan? And I thought NASA didn't have enough money to support core missions.
Interesting idea with the short cycle harvest. Another take might be to genetically engineer plants to go dormant every 2 weeks during the time that the sun is not available. Might take longer to produce crops, but seems cheaper, simpler, safer than a nuke option.
I'd like to live a long time to see how technology/science and culture develops over time. It's absolutely mind boggling for me to imagine where we will be technologically at our current rate of acceleration in 100 yrs, 500 yrs, 1,000 yrs, 10,000 yrs, 50,000 yrs. Wow.
Where are you from? Are you Jewish? Did you have a bar mitzvah? On what date? Why are you coming to Israel? Where are you staying? For how long? Do you know anyone here? What are their names? How do you know them? Will you visit them? Do you speak foreign languages? Which ones? Can you say something for me? I see you've been to X country in your passport, what did you do there? What do you do? Once I had a drum with me and they asked if I could play something for them.
They will sometimes get combative with you; I think it's part of the test to see how you respond.
I've flown into Israel several times. In a country where more than 75% of it's population looks (and is) middle eastern and more than 20% is Arab, most of their passenger facing security is behavioral profiling.
They put you through a 5 minute interview asking basic questions and some random ones as well and watch how you respond. If you're inconsistent or edgy, you get bumped up into a longer interview. The reason this approach won't work in the US is that the Israeli system relies on their agents being smart and perceptive where as the US system relies on technology manned by absent minded TSA folk.

this would truly be a Cold War.
Irony is that it CAN wirelessly stream video to your HDTV. Still funny though.
Virtually. To be completely safe...you need a speed limit of 0mph.

Spotify totally rocks and is growing fast. Why not buy them?

1) Start selling Airport safe 2.9oz bottles of water!
2) Profit.

So does this mean that there can be faster than light communication?
Can't believe you mentioned Russia and Space Mirrors without calling out their program to put orbiting mirrors in space for exactly this purpose...

It's not like it's rocketscience to get anything to the moon.
Huh?
I think they made a movie about this...space cowboys.
...probably stands for Did Not Attack!

i find co-ed naked pair programming to be the most productive; especially when looking to start a new branch.

The pot smoking community has released their official response to this study, saying, "dude, chill with the anti pot stuff."
are they not filing for international patents?
I think you have a typo. Let me fix it.
Iranian's votes don't actually count, regardless of gender.
I been asked:
Where are you from?
Are you Jewish? Did you have a bar mitzvah? On what date?
Why are you coming to Israel?
Where are you staying? For how long?
Do you know anyone here? What are their names? How do you know them? Will you visit them?
Do you speak foreign languages? Which ones? Can you say something for me?
I see you've been to X country in your passport, what did you do there?

sounds like the pilot was being vindictive and trying to push his political views...no fair and bad service.
sense the force, i do.
