That Regina Lynn wrote the article. I have an RSS feed for Wired News. I hate clicking on a new story to find out it is one of hers. Not only is her writing clunky, it is dull. She reminds me of the easy girl in high school that always liked to talk about Dr. Ruth, just so everyone would know how available she was. Or maybe, to be more accurate, more like the writer that did the sex column for the college newspaper. The writer has no expertise, just a lot of experience.
ooh, an opinion from a Californian! That reminds me of a joke:
Three men are sitting at a bar in Denver during the Great American Beer Festival (the countries' greatest festival). The one on the left tells the bartender to give him Sam Adams Boston Lager. He drinks half of it, throws the bottle in the air, pulls a gun, shoots the bottle and yells, "I am from Boston, and we have more beer there than we can handle"!
Not to be outdone, the dude on the right tells the bartender to bring him Anderson Valley Brewing Boont Amber Ale. He drinks half of it, throws the bottle in the air, shoots the bottle, and yells, "I am from California, and we have more beer there than we can handle"!
The gentleman in the middle orders a Fat Tire, drinks it slow, finishes it, pulls a gun, shoots the dudes to his right and left. Then he says, "I am from Colorado, and we have more Yankees and Californians than we know what to do with. But we recycle our bottles".
Here is the link for New Belgium Brewery's site about how they process their wastewater. The energy that they use at the brewery that is not generated in-house is provided from wind farms in Wyoming (a half hours drive north of Ft. Collins. This makes them the only brewery in the US that is powered not only by renewable energy, but energy that is also sustainable. So enjoy that Fat Tire or Sunshine Wheat guilt-free (well, other than the excuses you make for why you got home from work so late).
The article does not explain by what going online means (i.e.- Is it checking email, doing research, shopping, charring, or/.ing?). I am surprised at the number of responses that assume that women are only online to chat or use Facebook.
Consider that more women than men earn high school, associates, bachelors, masters, law, medical, and PhD degrees. And while more men than women are still university department chairs, more women tahn men are now the editors of academic journals. Who then is going to naturally be using the web for research (Other than for pictures of Milla Jovovich)? Women are the ones that are beginning to contol the direction of research and ideas. We men should hope that they nice to us, have a good sense of humor, and that they do not hold a grudge for our behavior.

Wyoming was the last state to raise the drinking age (link below). They raised it March 12, 1998. I am from Colorado, when I was 18 it was still an 18/21 state (18 was able to buy 3.2% beer, 21+could buy regular beer and liquor). Wyoming was a 19 years old buys anything state. Kids from Colorado State used to car pool 45 minutes up the interstate to buy booze, then bring it back to Ft. Collins to sell at a profit in the dorms.
I was first in line at Best Buy last night. I bought 5 copies, and now they are all on Ebay for $1500 'Buy it now'. Then I am going to buy a PS 3 on Ebay.
Vista=Free PS3!!!
Try looking under the first admendment in the Bill of Rights. Then be thankful that a good baptist like John Leland worked so tirelessly on James Madison to get it placed there.
IIf you were to start out saying, "African-Americans all like...", or "Oh, you know those Jews, always...", what would you be?
That's right, a bigot.
Writing, "Christians are stupid, immoral, hypocritical..."
That's right, you are a bigot.
Saying that "some Christians" believe something is closer to the truth, but then it becomes a propaganda use of language, in the same manner that Faux News reporters hide their bias behind claims of, "Some people say that liberals...(eat babies, love abortion, love taxes...).
Be honest, if you hate people of faith, just come out and say you are a bigot.
Or you can repeat the same boring claims that the entire world's evil is caused by religious people, that there would be no war without religious people, and other non-scientific claims.
Read a little history and then talk about those atheists that brought the world's greatest and most systematic death machines to our history. Stalin, Pol Pot, Hitler (please, leave his alleged occult beliefs to Hellboy and Raiders of the Lost Ark). Use the scientific method, don't look at what they said that they believed, rather, observe what they did.
Or keep being a bigot. You can keep pointing out all those stupid believers, and then cozy up to your cognitive dissonance when you think about those moron slashdotter heroes like Isaac Newton or Tolkien. Or that moron Stephen Colbert. Or the moral cowards that were involved in the American Civil Right movement (Medgar Evers, Fannie Lou Hamer, MLK, Malcolm X).
For a group that says they worship at the throne of rationality, the rest of us will be observing your behavior.
Well, maybe there could of been a prize of some sort if the Wachowski brothers had stopped with the first movie. Unfortunately they made the second and third movies, which proved two things:
1) They never got past their first semester of philosophy and,
2) That they only had the candlepower to get halfway down the rabbithole. Then they fell back into action movie mode with crashes, shootouts, bad dialogue, raves, and huge mechs with soft, chewy nouget centers.
The only PhD that will associated with the Matrix movies is the one that Cornel West earned.
Neither of David's parents were relevant to his becoming king. Jonathan was the scion of Saul, as he was Saul's son. David, the son of Jesse (and later Jonathan's best friend), was unrelated to Saul, and became king because he was annointed by the prophet Samuel. Neither David's patrilineal, nor his matrilineal line mattered to his being king of Israel. Your facts were wrong, your point is right.
Tomorrow, in Sonoma, AZ, a group of wizards and shamans will be gathering together to cast a protective spell to help our extraterrestrial allies. Napoleon Dynamite will be there to lead the proceedings, bring your crystals, moonboots, and positive mental attitudes to help in this dark time of need. Remember, only you can prevent intergalactic war.
This study will have randomized samples. There is no way to get that kind of funding without it. To get results that are valid, randomization must be a part of the experimental design. This does not mean that some kids will be deprived of technology instruction, only that the instruction will be differentiated so that the researchers can see which methods are the most successful (that is, statistically significant). There is no need for a seperate school, as methods to keep the study valid are already used by educational researchers. You are definately on the right track in your thinking, truly scientific based, randomized research is the way to get to the bottom of educational questions. It is preferable to the 'folk-wisdom' approach that has plagued education for far too long!

because he still owes Gabe, Tycho, and Child's Play $10K. Cheapskate or coward, you decide!

Is it ironic that you took the time to point out the dimness of the previous post, but managed to misspell 'well'?
forgot the link from my above post: query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage. html?res=940DE5D61F38F931A25750C0A96E948260 - 19k - meh.

Yeah, and your Chevy Corsica gets you around just as well as a Corvette would!
a sequel. You'll be in your bunk.
Oh yeah, because Aliens 3 had not already jumped the shark. Ripley H. Christ on a popsicle stick!
