But nice try with the link, which produces pages with information on how they deal with corruption, not accusing them of corruption.
And why add maladministration to the search? Maladministration is not corruption.
So do you have anything to back it up? Or was it just hyperbole?
...Saddam broke almost all of the terms of the pease agreement that stopped the Gulf War in 1991. This included letting the UN inspectors have access to the WMDs...
...or you are purposefully ignoring them to keep harping on your point...
No.
However, I note that you have singularly failed to answer any of my questions.
...you are not open to revising your conceptions, because there the information is, and you haven't yet accepted it...
Oh dear, yet more misunderstanding on your part. Being open to revising a position does not mean accepting any crackpot theory you care to bandy about. If it did I would now believe I had a C02 sense organ in my lungs along with a humidity sense organ. How silly would I look if I used that in a discussion. No one would take me seriously.
...So maybe I was wrong about the C02 sensors...
And don't forget the humidity sense, and the orientation sense, and the propitiation sense - or did you mean proprioception, so much for your fact checking, eh?
...I remember something from my education...
But apparently not from any biology you did.
...However, I cannot find any link...
Of course not, there aren't any. You made it up.
...But I have provided links to back up my other claims...
Which they failed to do.
...While you have provided none...
Are you suggesting that somewhere on the Internet is a page that specifically states there is no C02 sensing organ in the lungs? Or that there is no humidity sensing organ in the lungs? Or that there is no orientation sensing organ anywhere? Do you expect pages full of information on things that aren't?
Still, I hate to disappoint, so heres a link. Give it a read, you will see it says "...Unlike the six exteroception human senses of sight, taste, smell, touch, hearing, and balance, that advise us of the outside world, proprioception is a sense that provides feedback solely on the status of the body internally..." Oh, wait, thats your link. Shame it shoots your argument down.
I personally disagree that balance is an exteroception sense, as it senses something about ones self, not anything external, but I'd be happy to debate the point with someone who knows what they are talking about. So that discounts you.
Lets see what other links you made that support my argument. Hmm, all of them. A page about equilibrioception, which is just the sense of balance. Thermoception, which is the sense of heat. I think you'll find I covered that one. There's one on touch which doesn't add anything to the debate, and finally the one on the somatosensory system. What does this one have to say... "...The sense of touch is mediated by the somatosensory system..." Seems to agree with me there, where I said "...the five senses refer to what we sense, not how we sense it..." Oh look, they say it again "...Thus the term "touch" is actually the combined term for several senses. In medicine, the colloquial term "touch" is usually replaced with somatic senses, to better reflect the variety of mechanisms involved..." You must have missed it.
...You are a troll...
Seems you still don't understand what a troll is. It is not someone who points out that your argument is weak, full of holes, badly researched and mostly made up, which is all I am doing.
You tried to bluster your way into a discussion you know next to nothing about, made ridiculous claims based on a flawed understanding of basic physics, and you got called on it. Live with it, I expect you've got away with it many times in the past. Calling me a troll may make you feel a little better, but slinging insults just shows that your unable to back up your position.
...Now I understand you are one of the new breed of trolls that have recently infestested slashdot....
It seems you go through life understanding very little. Pointing out that your post consisted mainly of stuff you made up is not trolling.
...Back in my day, posting were about Facts, not people, dammit! Facts! Back in the old days, people used to post comments to make deeper understandings. They would present evidence, historical and otherwise to create deeper understanding....
It really is a shame that you didn't follow their example, as I have done.
...If you are trying to learn, you have to question everything...
Which is why I questioned you, even though what you posted was patently nonsense. Now if you could only practice what you preached you would have searched for some evidence of what you suggested and posted links to back it up. Or, perhaps you did search, and failed to find the elusive C02 detector?
...If we look at the classic idea of the five sense with this in mind, we find that some senses are a combination of several system in the body...
This is not in dispute. the five senses refer to what we sense, not how we sense it. If you have a look here you will learn that we have five different taste receptors. Are you saying that we should consider each a seperate sense because each uses a different mechanism? Perhaps you are, as you go on to say...
...These are all seperate nerves in the body...there is no reason to group them together under a single sense...
Hmm, perhaps grouping is not such a bad idea.
...Also, it turns out there are perception systems in the body that are unaccounted for, such as propitiation and orientation...
Are you sure we have a sense for propitiation? As for orientation, there is no such sense. That's like saying we have a sense of proximity because we can see how close to a wall we are.
...Aristotle didn't have any access to instruments that could show infrared. People also didn't have microscopes back then, nor did they disect human bodies in order to learn. So now that we have those tools available to us, it becomes obvious that the common wisdom is outdated, and we need to revise the theory...
If you read my post you will see that I wrote, and I quote, "Now it may be that there are more than five senses, but the answer is not here...". What you should have been able to ascertain from this is that
I am open to revising my conceptions regarding the senses.
Your ramblings about being able to sense how much C02 is in a room, humidity sensors in the lungs, air presure sensors and the like isn't what it takes for me to do so.
My guess is that it makes sense and is backed up by facts...
There's only one answer to this... You must be new here.
You seem confused, about who said what as well as on the subject of senses.
To correct you on the first issue:-
...So, when you sense too much CO2, you are not smelling it, as you claimed earlier...
No I didn't, that was someone else. Do try and keep up.
...Why are you chaning your story now? Earlier you said that people smell CO2...
No I didn't, that was someone else. Do try and keep up.
...There is a specific function in the lungs that senses humidity. You are not smelling it or tasting it or touching it, as you claim...
This is getting tedious - that wasn't me, it was someone else. Do try etc.
Right, now thats out of the way, let's deal with the second issue.
..."Tell me, what does CO2 smell/taste like?
Tell me, what does chocolate smell/taste like?
What does this have to do with the smell of CO2? Nothing...
I was just pointing out what a nonsensical question you asked. If I am unable to describe the taste/smell of chocolate, it doesn't mean it doesn't have a taste/smell.
The reality is we can't sense the amount of C02 in our environment. That's something you or someone else just made up. A google for "lungs sense C02" brings up no information. There's a surprise...
...There is a specific function in the lungs that senses humidity...
No there isn't. It's something else you made up. A google for "lungs sense humidity" brings up the expected number of relevant results - none.
..."Your body cavities are all vented to atmosphere to maintain equal internal and external pressures. You may feel discomfort if one of the vents are blocked, most usually in the ear, but this just tells you the external pressure is different to when your ear was blocked."
This is irrelevant information...
No it isn't. This is how the body copes with differing ambient pressures, by keeping the internal pressure the same as the external pressure. If there is no difference in pressure there is nothing for you to sense. Now if you go to pressures outside the acceptable operating range for a body you will know. It's called pain. I'm afraid this is just something else you made up.
..."And, of course, hearing is exactly sensing changes in air pressure."
No, this is totally wrong. You are talking out of your ass...
Oh dear, you seem as weak in physics as you do in biology. Do some research. Sound is nothing more than pressure waves in the air, or whatever medium you happen to be in (e.g. water).
...None of your above examples are valid. They lack basic facts in physics and physiology...
This is a joke, right?
...In this sense, I am talking about sensory data that wouldn't exist without the organism that is doing the sensing. Things like hunger and pain...There are nerves which trasmit hunger information. If you claim that this isn't true, how do you define pain and hunger? What is happening physiologically in the body when you feel pain, if it's not nerves transmitting data to the brain, just like touch or sight?...
You said it in the first part, if it wouldn't exist without you, it's part of you. The five senses are referring to sensing the outside environment, not how we regulate ourselves internally. I don't know if you are deliberately trying to be obtuse or if you genuinely don't understand.
...Orientation is most certainly a sense. There is part of the inner ear, which has a liquid that senses your gravitational orientation to the Earth. When you are physically tilted, the liquid sloshe
Wrong. Our pressure-sensitive nerve are totally separate from our temperature sensing nerves. Different sense altogether...
So are you telling me you can sense the temperature of something if it doesn't touch you? (excluding what you can see, of course, e.g. fire, molten metal.) Of course not, you only know the temperature of things you touch, whether it is the air surrounding you or an exhaust pipe. Differentiating the two is like differentiating between colour vision and black and white vision because one uses rods and one uses cones.
..."CO2 sense - smell/taste;"
Tell me, what does CO2 smell/taste like?...
Tell me, what does chocolate smell/taste like?
You can't sense how much C02 is in the atmosphere around you. You only know when there is an excess of C02 in your blood, which causes you to breathe more heavily/faster. This isn't a sense in this context as it tells you nothing of your surroundings.
..."humidity sense - smell/taste and possibly touch;"
Nope. Happens in the lungs...
Nope, there are man ways to tell if it's humid, but only if it is extreme one way or the other. Inability to cool ones self by sweating, so feeling hot and wet is the most common way to know it's extremely humid. A lack of tracheal mucous, which can feel like a sore throat from extremely dry air.
..."air pressure sense - sensed by the ear drum using the same mechanism as hearing, and possibly touch."
Hearing and air pressure are totally separate. Auditory nerves hear. They do not sense air pressure. Air pressure is not enough pressure to trigger pressure nerves in the skin...
You can't sense air pressure anyway, at least not in your normal day to day life. Your body cavities are all vented to atmosphere to maintain equal internal and external pressures. You may feel discomfort if one of the vents are blocked, most usually in the ear, but this just tells you the external pressure is different to when your ear was blocked.
And, of course, hearing is exactly sensing changes in air pressure.
So you see it's you who is talking, to use your phrase, total bullshit.
...In this sense, I am talking about sensory data that wouldn't exist without the organism that is doing the sensing. Things like hunger and pain. If I wasn't around, I obviously would be unable to sense my own pain. Similarly, orientation is not an absolute sense (like, "How much CO2 is in this room?") but is is relative to the body's orientation towards the earth...
You seem confused. You sense things which are external to you, not internal. You don't sense pain, you are in pain. You don't sense hunger, you are hungry. These are internal feedback devices. And orientation is not a sense, it is a correlation of information from many parts/organs, and easily fooled.
...Air pressure is not sound waves, and it is not sensed by the auditory nerve...
But interestingly, sound waves are nothing more than variations in air pressure.
Now it may be that there are more than five senses, but the answer is not here...
...except when it rains more often, the transfering energy doesn't have a chance to build into larger storms...
Unfortunately the weather doesn't work like that. I am sure you have noticed from personal experience that thunderstorms like humid days/nights. Thunderstorms wont happen unless there is a high moisture content, and that is what increased evaporation will give you.
...as more water will evaporate, thereby inducing more clouds and rain...
This is definitely not a good thing.
In simplistic terms it is the moisture content in the atmosphere that drives the weather, by transfering energy through evaporation and condensation. More water vapour will mean hurricanes/tornados/typhoons of greater intensity, and more of them. Same with thunderstorms.
Except, of course, if you shoplift the store has lost an item they have paid for, or will have to pay for, and thus have made a loss. Whereas if someone downloads digital music from another source other than yours you have only made a hypothetical loss.
So your points are invalid, even though they are modded insightful:
Record companies don't act like other businesses, record company losses due to other downloads are pure fabrication, pulled from the ether by their litigious minds, your hardware/whatever stores losses due to shoplifting are an accounting fact.
Your whatever store counteracts shoplifting by adding, for example, RFID tags to goods to inconvenience the shoplifter without undue hinderence to the genuine purchaser. The record company counteracts downloading from other sources by inconveniencing the genuine purchaser with DRM, without undue hinderance to the other downloaders.
Perhaps folk are right, and this is an example of you not realising that record companies don't act like any other business.

...but what are the effects of absorbing that much energy from the sea?...
Do me a favour. Have you any idea how large the oceans are? (about 1.37 billion km^3) Besides, they are already about 45,000 commercial vessels at sea, each using on average, say, 10MW's for propulsion. If only half of them are at sea at any one time, they're still pumping over 200GW into the oceans, and have been for years. Also the energy in the sea is renewable as it derives from the Sun (heating) and the Moon (tides) so we can never deplete all its energy.
...Wind power has the same problem, where the airflow downwind of a windfarm is colder, slower and more turbulent...
Would this be like the effect buildings have on airflow? Do you think it would be any worse than building a town? Besides, how big is a wind farm going to be? The atmosphere continues up to about 90km (the mesopause). In reality a wind farm has no more effect downstram than a small forest would, so perhaps it would be a good thing as so many forests have disappeared. As for cooling the air, the effect is minimal, but hopefully it would make up for all the heat we are pumping into the atmosphere from other sources.
Well it appears that you didn't search hard enough for a device that suits your needs, as phones that fill your requirements do already exist. At least, they do here.
If you don't want these features get a phone without them. I have friends and family that wanted simple phones so that was what they got.
Of course I don't know where you live, but in the UK these sort of phones have always been available. For example http://www.gsmarena.com/sagem_vs1-1181.php the Sagem VS1.
What I don't understand is how you ended up with a phone you don't want. Why not keep the old one? Or if it is your first mobile phone and you couldn't find a simple one, get a second hand one.
I'm pretty sure you only have your all singing and dancing phone because *you* decided to buy it.
...as you are explaining things that I already understand...
Really? Remember writing this?
..."GNUmetric." Is that a program to measure livestock?...
Or this?
...I never even saw the "numeric" connotation...
Or this?
...So why this obsession with... emphasizing GNU through capitalization...
It appears you only understand it now because it's been explained to you.
...while totally missing the point... it is ugly and doesn't help anybody...
Well, it helped me, so that point is demonstrably false. So all that remains is you thinking it's an ugly name. I don't think it's an ugly name, and I just asked a friend and they don't either. So what makes you right and us wrong?
Face it, you're blustering because you got caught up in a tirade against some open source naming conventions, and in your enthusiasm for the witch hunt you picked on the wrong program. Well you got called on it. Accept it like a man and go and rant about one of the many programs that don't meet your criteria.
The horse you're flogging is not only dead, it's already been made into pet food, sold, consumed and excreted.
Sorry, I didn't realise you were struggling to understand. I'll spell it out for you.
1) From the post you just replied to:- ...The capitalisation was mine to emphasise this...
Just in cse you're not sure what that means, it means the GNU project don't capitalise the letters GNU. I did it as I thought that that would be enough to convey the information written below.
2) In the English language "GN" can be pronounced as "N", as in GNome or GNaw. From this we can see that GNumeric can be pronounced the same as Numeric.
3) An excerpt from an online dictionary:- Numeric Nu*mer"ic, Numerical Nu*mer"ic*al, a. Cf. F.
num'erique. See Number, n.
1913 Webster
1. Belonging to number; denoting number; consisting in numbers; expressed by numbers, and not letters; as, numerical characters; a numerical equation; a numerical statement.
From this definition of the word numeric we can see it is relevant to the main purpose of spreadsheets, i.e. to manipulate numbers.
Perhaps you should pick on one of the many programs whose names don't meet with your criteria, your obviously flogging dead horse with this one.
The Xfce4 panel allows you to attach a menu to the program launching button. Clicking on the button will launch a program, and clicking on the arrow will show a menu.
I have all my programs arranged this way and find it much better than the usual start button type of menu.

The Xfce4 panel allows you to attach a menu to the program launching button. Clicking on the button will launch a program, and clicking on the arrow will show a menu.
I have all my programs arranged this way and find it much better than the usual start button type of menu.
