Given that Republicans (on average) are historically far more charitable (with their own money) than Democrats, I'm not sure how your statement follows.
This. For quite a while, I've had a sneaking suspicion that Nokia's acquisition of Qt is one of the principal reasons that Microsoft embarked on their torpedo-Nokia strategy.
Perhaps, NSA should provide a SSO service. Then, at least the organization that potentially has access to all of your accounts, already has access to all of your accounts.
Hmm. This makes me wonder if the purchase of TrollTech (QT) is what put Nokia in Microsoft's crosshairs in the first place. QT provides a very attractive cross-platform alternative to Microsoft's desktop tools.
Microsoft's "takeover" of Nokia killed multiple birds with one stone.
Christianity is (obviously) based on the teachings in the Old Testament, but it doesn't end there. Otherwise, Christians would just be Jews.
1But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. 2At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them. 3The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group 4and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” 6They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him.
But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. 7When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.” 8Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.
9At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. 10Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?”
I believe that was an issue for the Inmos Transputer. The Transputer used a signed address space, so memory location 0 was in the middle of the address space.
I usually try to avoid these kinds of debates, but "Protip"? How obnoxious. What about your referenced posting made it obvious that you are a "CEO, of an INTERNATIONAL company"?
Not exactly what you are asking, but interesting in its own way:
From the Wall Street Journal:
1. According to a study of Federal Reserve data conducted by NYU professor Edward Wolff, for the nation’s richest 1%, inherited wealth accounted for only 9% of their net worth in 2001, down from 23% in 1989. (The 2001 number was the latest available.)
2. According to a study by Prince & Associates, less than 10% of today’s multi-millionaires cited “inheritance” as their source of wealth.
3. A study by Spectrem Group found that among today’s millionaires, inherited wealth accounted for just 2% of their total sources of wealth.
The truth is, there's a lot of crime and not a lot of money for cops. And for most individuals who are burglarized, there's rarely enough evidence to even begin an investigation.
That's why I'm part of our Neighborhood Watch. If I see a stranger in our neighborhood acting odd or dressed like a thug, then I'll confront them. That approach has worked pretty well for me, until recently.
It wasn't selective at all. Just cut and pasted the first several lines from a summary. I'm sure that it makes you feel better to believe that there really isn't a strong bias among journalists (and journalism schools) toward Democrats, but it has been shown to be there in study after study.
I know that's the Republican meme, that you were so horribly persecuted by unfair criticism of Bush that now they're entirely justified in doing the same thing...
But it's not true.
Study of US media bias, October 29, 2007 http://www.journalism.org/node/8197, looks at coverage of the early stages of the 2008 Presidential Campaign.
Newspapers have a pro-Democrat bias:
59 percent of stories about Democrats were positive. 11 percent were negative.
26 percent of stories about Republicans were positive. 40 percent were negative.
TV networks (ABC, CBS, NBC) have a pro-Democrat bias:
40 percent of stories about Democrats were positive. 17 percent were negative.
19 percent of stories about Republicans were positive
How many members of his own party voted for it? How many of those would vote to override the President's veto? Just because it got passed my a "veto-proof" majority, that doesn't mean that the veto would be overturned.
I have no idea of the validity behind the notion that a large percentage of American Socialists have turned their attention to Environmentalism, but it is not an uncommon criticism.
Hmm. I don't recall the Golden Age part and I can't find my copy (spent 15 minutes digging through boxes in the basement). However, I'm almost certain that, eventually, they become a nation of "lotus eaters", which implies non-productivity. That line was part of the payoff of the story.
"Element-79" by Fred Hoyle. A meteorite of pure gold lands in Great Britain and the gov't hushes it up to avoid flooding the market. They then carefully use the reserves to put everyone in the country on welfare. Voila, Land of the Lotus Eaters.

Right. That completely makes it obvious. Give it up.
Good question. I don't know.

I am just not super motivated
There you go -- too many drugs!
Certainly not a member of a Muslim-majority country, which make up 25% of the countries of the world.
Of course it's possible. Look at any of the several documentaries that include video of Tatooine for proof.

Are you joking? AGW stands for Anthropogenic (man-made) Global Warming.
