The political process is the non-violent way that US Citizens can have a regime change. As long as you follow the law and are non-violent, the spirit and all that nonsense doesn't matter.
Politics has always been and always be a dirty business. There is no morality in the process. Either you win or you lose, and how you win or lose never matters.
You can believe science and chemistry or believe hype and marketing.
=Oh, I believe science. But according to your definition of poison "If it kills rats it's rat poison which makes it a pesticide" then water is a poison and a pesticide too because it can kill rats.
If that sound silly, it's only as silly as what you said.

A small amount of water wont kill rats. A small amount of HFCS will kill rats. Just because it's a slow acting pestiside or poison it does not change the fact that it kills rats.
"Pesticide" isn't on that page, not once. Neither is "toxic" or "poison". What it does say is that high fructose corn syrup causes weight gain, duh. Of course it does, it's empty calories. It does say there's weight gain even if the calorie count remains the same though.

If it kills rats it's rat poison which makes it a pesticide. Regardless of if the big businesses backing it want to tell you it's pure wholesome sugar. You can believe science and chemistry or believe hype and marketing.
Read more about HFCS. All the rats become diabetic, get sick, and die. There have been othe studies to confirm this.
I don't think it is and nobody has made the case for why any other feed shouldn't be used. What difference does it make? So we give the cows something other than corn.
Mainly because while all other drive formats are cheap, those damn SCSI drives require specialized equipment which still seems to cost hundreds of dollars.
I'd be interested in knowing what the record is for most overwritten restore.
I have reformatted by accident, reinstalled and then thought how can I get that one file I wanted from it? Obviously it's impossible now but I thought it was possible.
Fact: If you encrypt your file system and you lose the key, it doesn't matter if you give the file system to the NSA, nobody will ever decrypt it.
On the other hand if you just delete and overwrite it, who knows it might take a lot of effort but how much effort does it take to restore something casually over written?
Also what is more secure as a destruction process, encrypt and forget or zero the drive?
I didn't say that; you are reading something that isn't there. Even among "experienced" liars, there are tells. You have to watch their eyes, because that's the dead giveaway. Most people look away when they're lying, and even in those that don't, there will still be a slight shift in the eyes. It's practically unavoidable.
There are other subtle body cues as well. Everybody has a tell. Just ask any successful poker player.
And it takes months or years of observation to learn them.
You send a letter without a return address and it's almost impossible to trace back. Just ask the UNABOMBER, or those retards mailing white powder around.
I'm not sure it's a difference between "experienced" and "inexperienced" as it is a difference between "normal" and "sociopathic". The two people you just cited are likely candidates for being sociopaths. People who aren't sociopathic can't help but reveal they are lying through their body language.
Not everybody with social skills is a sociopath. In some environments you can't trust anybody else and in those environments all your credulous erudite knowledge is a disability in itself.
It's definitely experienced or inexperienced because in the end the goal is to survive through all means right? So no matter what your environment is, you'll be able to adopt the mannerisms, the language, the social skills or thought patterns to survive it, right?
This is a natural ability for some people but not for others. This ability to adapt leads some people to have disregard for what people in their environment claim to think of believe.
They person who sits next to you, smiles at you, shakes your hand with a firm grip, pretends to agree with all your likes and dislikes to build rapport, adopts perfect body language or mirrors yours, this is either a con artist or a rare naive person who happens to like everything you like.
I'm saying people who pay too much attention to how something is said, or what is said, and not enough attention to behavior, is likely to be treated as a sucker. These sorts of people are incapable of surviving in dishonest environments and have a disorder of their own.
A new technique developed at King’s College London uses a fifteen minute MRI scan to diagnose autism spectrum disorder (ASD).... The researchers found that ASD patients had special cortical features that allowed their brains to be distinguished from the other two groups. By contrast, ADHD brains could not be distinguished from their healthy counterparts. Because of the small sample size, researchers were unable to distinguish between distinct diagnoses along the autism spectrum (e.g autism vs. Asperger’s). Future research will be needed to determine whether the new technique can tease out diagnostic subcategories of the disorder – and whether the same technique can find these differences in childrens’ brains. Fifteen minute MRI scan to diagnose autism spectrum disorder
Actually the original point is ASD not only have difficulty reading body language intuitively but don't send it intuitively either so your not going to be able to read them in an instant and anything you do read is likely to be wrong anyways. In the NT population body language usually trumps verbal language, in the ASD population Verbal language trumps body language.
So what you are saying is a person with ASD cannot use body language to communicate and cannot read body language. I'm not disagreeing with that.
I'm saying it's unwise to assume any language is honest, whether it's their words or their bodyspeak, it's just as likely to be false as it is to be correct when you are dealing with a person you know nothing about. It's 50/50, it's like flipping a coin. Only when you learn that their behavior typically matches what they say or their body language can you begin to read them and some people never mean what they say or say what they mean.
Actually there is a very good chance that Asperger's syndrome will be dropped from the ICD-11 as a separate diagnosis, right now in ICD-10 the biggest difference between Childhood Autism, F84.0, and Asperger's F84.5 is "no general delay or retardation in language or in cognitive development." and it is notable that a delay doesn't imply or exclude a permanent retardation of a skill set. Most clinicians have been using the spectrum paradigm for a long time rather than discrete diagnosis. Still given the rate that Auties and Aspies are bullied by schoolmates in our now enlightened society, I'll stand by most being burned at the stake in Shakespeare's time.
I don't think they are the same. I think Aspergers is like ADHD. It's not really a disease but people are calling it one. I think Autism is a legitimate disease. With Aspergers theres no difference in brain function, until they can show via FMRI that the brain of someone with Aspergers is different I'm not convinced.
As far as which people got killed during Shakespears time I think that had more to do with IQ and with the individual than with personality.
In some environments Aspergers will keep you alive, in other environments it will get you killed. I can't say the same about Autism because the difference is with Autism a person doesn't have the capability to use ordinary language skills while a person with Aspergers has the capability but does not feel comfortable using it or does not feel they need it.
It depends on your role. A stoicist would be considered as having Aspergers in 2010 but back then they'd be considered stoic and almost certainly wouldn't be killed for not being emotionally incline. It's just today in 2010 the USA has become wimpy and emo, don't assume it was like that in every generation or that todays "normal" was yesterdays "normal".
That being said in case you were wondering, no I don't have Aspergers. I can ready body language just as well as anybody else. The difference is I know sociopaths and psychopaths exist, and I know clever predators exist. They aren't going to be honest on any level, they wear masks.
In fact I wear masks too when necessary. So trying to analyze a chameleon is kind of pointless when you use rudimentary methods. You'll just see different masks or different faces. The only way to truly analyze a complex person is to use the slow process.
Yes there are a lot of very simple people who do what they feel and who adopt body language to show off what they feel. These people typically also are naive, get exploited a lot, precisely for that reason. Precisely because somebody like me, or you, can size them up in an instant and know they are a sucker.

High fructose corn syrup has a negative nutritional value. It's a pesticide.
They're putting a pesticide in food for humans? Not on the crops but the actual food people will eat?
Falcon
You didn't know about high fructose corn syrup?
Not every food will be used to make ethanol. We'd just eat different foods.
And I don't eat any of that crap.
So why would I care if corn prices go up?
And that would be a good thing right?
I'd rather we use ethanol. But if we must use both, at least ethanol has some positive attributes.
Are there any vitamins in corn? yes or no? And which vitamins in corn are so essential that you can't get them from something else?
This is like deciding we shouldn't use apples for fuel because we need our apple pie.
We don't need anymore corn for food. We eat too much of it as it is.
I don't think it is and nobody has made the case for why any other feed shouldn't be used. What difference does it make? So we give the cows something other than corn.
"high fructose corn syrup which has little nutritional value."
High fructose corn syrup has a negative nutritional value. It's a pesticide.
If 100% of all corn in this country went into our cars we'd just eat rice or potatoes. What is your point?
The cars need the corn more than we do. We have other foods we eat. In fact we have too much corn so why not use the excess in cars?
Make the case for why we can't eat anything other than corn.
