Hey who was that genocidal Arab that they are still finding mass graves from? Oh yeah Sadam "The Butcher of Bagdad" Hussein....I had forgotten about him! What ever happened to that guy?
WOW! First let me say that I sincerely apologize for getting my Hague articles mixed. As stated in my original statement it has been more than a few years. If you would please refere to Section IV Article 85 of the Hague convention (http://www.icrc.org/ihl.nsf/WebART/110-20085?OpenDocument)
"Sec. IV Art. 85. War-rebels are persons within an occupied territory who rise in arms against the occupying or conquering army, or against the authorities established by the same. If captured, they may suffer death, whether they rise singly, in small or large bands, and whether called upon to do so by their own, but expelled, government or not. They are not prisoners of war; nor are they if discovered and secured before their conspiracy has matured to an actual rising or armed violence."
This article seems to make it clear that persons engaging in hostility against and occupying army are NOT subject to POW status. It also demonstrates that if found conspiring to engage in hostility, they are also, NOT POWs and can be killed at the time of capture/discovery.
So the "fuck you and your saboteurs" was a bit uncalled for.
As for my tirade concerning Denny, I am not sure how it is bigoted. The facts are the facts. While he was Mayor of Cleveland, He defaulted on loans that his administration secured. He runs for president so that he can keep his name in the local press for the purposes of his congressional campaign and providing a excuse to avoid congressional primary debates with candidates that want to work for the people. He has wasted time and taxpayer money with 2 failed presidential campaigns that did even come close being legitimate. And, oh yeah I love this one, He has seen alien space craft.
As for my fellow Clevelanders...The people that, can not properly use a touch screen voting machine...The people that elected Mike White who literally "lost" a substantial part of the cities revenue (I wonder how he got that alpaca farm)....The people who claim racism when ever a criminal is killed with a weapon in their hand by the police defending themselves...The people who elected convicted felons into city counsel seats (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,337072,00.html)...
These facts are not arguable. The exist whether we want them to or not. I am not sure how that makes me a bigot, but I can tell you that YOUR hate seems to be a great deal greater than my own.
Please also note, that I have not f-u'd once and still got my point across. To those moderators that modded you up I say F-U
Humm, if memory serves me correctly (and we are going back many years so I can not quote chapter and verse) we are not obligated to adhere to the Geneva or Hague conventions IF the combatants are from a regime or country that has not also signed onto sed conventions. Further, according to the Geneva conventions in order to be classified as a combatant and not a spy the individual must have a recognizable uniform distinguishing him/her from the civilian population. As these prisoners fall under the Geneva and Hague convention definition of SPY/Saboteur they can technically be shot on site if witness committing such acts. As I recall most if not all WERE captured in the act of activity engaging coalition troop.
Additionally, These a-holes are not AMERICAN citizens and have no rights under the United States Constitution. They are also not on, nor have they been on US soil.
Now as for the parent article. Let us just remember one thing. Denny BANKRUPTED the (at the time 6th? largest) city in the nation when he was the friggan mayor of it. The only reason that the friggan weasel is still in office is because the population of the city of Cleveland is too retarded to not elect the ass clown. (I can say this because I live there and have to live next to the damn mouth breathers) This is the same city that has one of the highest tax rates in the country and the Id10t's can't figure out why businesses are leaving and taking all the jobs so they continue to raise the taxes so that the criminals (yes there are murderers, theives and rapist actual convict on city counsel) that were elected (by sed mouth breathers) can give themselves raises.
I do not agree with most of what has happened in the last 4 years (4 because I think the first 4 were fairly decent, at least compared to the first 4 of the purgerer)but given the rather lead choices the national conventions have given us I think it could be much much worse.
Thank you! I have been trying to explain this to some of my co-workers and this is a perfect explanation. I often use one of the most ecosystem damaging animals to demonstrate my point. The beaver and not the beaver that is fun in bed or on the coffee table or even in the kitchen. The woodland creature type beaver. This little bastard dams up streams that consequentially flood up stream low lands, turning them into marshes, This flooding kills most of the plant life in those areas and can prohibit other woodland creatures from accessing water. Then you add in the CO2 released from the decaying, rotting vegetation, and the increased population of insects, which spread diseases to sed woodland population causing more death and decay and more CO2. The the furry bastards waddle off and start over in a new area. And the eco-nazi's call us destructive?!?
I find it comical when people mention the "Cold War" as though it ended. It never really ended. The same jack offs that were in power are still in power. The only thing that really happened is that the break up of the old Soviet Union allowed the powers of the west to move closer to the traditional Russian borders AND allow us to move our bases closer to that border through treaties with the former Sov. States like Poland, Estonia, Latvia, etc. We won a battle in the cold war nothing more. (Thank Ronny! Sincerely!). I might point also point out that the bases that we closed, after being asked by the host governments, in Germany, Italy, etc., had a DRAMATIC impact on those countries' economics, for the worse. They love our dollars just not us...what f-ing whores they all are. F Europe...we left for a reason remember? And we have done just fine not being there. While I am at it...F the Middle East too, I am only a few million votes away from being elected President and putting the only good thing that Carter gave this country, the Neutron Bomb, on the entire stinking region. Then we could just ship the border jumpers there to drill and process the oil.
what's the statute of limitation on dumpster diving for credit card carbons? I never did such a heinous and illegal act, but I know a couple of fellows how did. Just curious.....anyone know?
and it works too!!! Now if only I had a set of acoustic couplers (mine died many moons ago). I could go to a pay phone and can call a BBS at either 110 or 300 baud!!!
Does anyone still run BBS's? Maybe I should see if I can find some of my old software, I might need to borrow a 5 1/4 drive though....
This might be fun!!!
Instead of dual booting why not virtualize. Then you can install many different distros and try them out, when you get fed up you can go back to the host OS for a while until you decide to try another. Plus you don't have to constantly dump you installs, keep them for year that way. Plus you can clone it, screw it up then us the clone to fix what you screwed up. Just a thought. Try virtual box from sun, its free
Sure you can, where do most scientist, especially at NASA get their capital? The government. Cut the budget for silly sh!t and start funding high cap/low fuel power sources and see how many scientists and engineers shift their attentions. And I am not suggesting that we give up on other things entirely either. But damn it, there is no need for fossil fuels for energy (and I am a die hard, conservative republican saying this) when we have the resources to mandate fossil fuel free energy.
that is kinda my point, if we focus on items like a suitcase sized power unit that doesn't way a ton, we can use it to power a space craft, then you have more weight/room for food, oh and all of those handy little experiments to figure out how to grow food. Besides, there is nothing wrong with hydroponics for growing food. If fact there have already been strides in that field too where instead of immersion or trickling the water/nutrient mix for the roots a mist of nutrient rich H2o is sprayed on the roots requiring even less of both. Food is not the problem, the weight of water is, making power systems lighter and more powerful equal more mass for water.
Better yet, why not have all these brainiac scientists and engineers work on something more fruitful in the short term. Like perhaps alternative fuels, or super high capacity battery systems. All of these would also lend themselves to aiding in space exploration anyway. Think about it. a high capacity battery or Hydrogen fuel generator that can power a home but fit in a suitcase...hummm no never mind...I don't see that as being valuable to space exploration, lets just grow marigolds on the moon instead.
I am thinking that it wasn't a Microsoft product at the root of this problem. When were the original NASA calculation done? I am betting int he mid 90's when the Pentium was first being implemented. Remember the floating point process issue? I bet thats it. http://www.willamette.edu/~mjaneba/pentprob.html
The real problem, with any voting system, is the quality of the voter. Let me explain what I mean. The voting system as it was, prior to 2000, had a fail safe. A voter would punch a ballot with the stylus. They were then supposed to removed the card from the machine and VERIFY via the numbers that their card was punched as they wanted it to be. If they could not read English, or were not capable of "punching" one hole and one hole only for a given race/issue/levy etc. then their vote would be negated. This prevents Captain Insano from just punching every hole. It is presumed that voters have the intelligence necessary to cast a vote properly. This apparently isn't good enough because it "disenfranchised" too many voters, who were not intelligent enough to check their ballot after voting to verify that their card was correct. So, the solution is to throw money at a problem that really wasn't a problem. Personally, the solution is much simpler than the Diebold solution. you put a picture of the candidate on the touch screen, you touch the one you want, after voting on all the issues/races/ etc. It prints a paper ballot, you remove the ballot from the machine, now here is the tricky part, you VERIFY that EVERYTHING is accurate, then drop it in the little box. WHY IS THE SO FRIGGAN HARD TO GRASP!!!! Again, if you aren't intelligent enough to follow directions you shouldn't be voting anyway. This is just another example of the government trying to protect the stupid from themselves.
I have a number of pistols and rifles. But I am in no hurry for an armed revolt...I mean come on. what is a rifle going to do against an M-1 or an Apache? Having served in tank I can tell you that we might as well accept our new slave lords in Washington (ALL of them) and get on with the business of being miserable.
I am in a similar position as the poster and have been asked to do a couple of Websites for our various companies. My advice would be to go hit up the local community college or tech school, maybe even high schools, and see if you can get a student to do some pro-bono work for a resume bullet point and perhaps a letter of recommendation. Check with the instructors first, they will know who has the talent and who might be willing to work for free/little. You can also justify it to management by stating they have access to many more robust packages plus you are getting a fresher feel with better tech...etc. etc.
I could say that cutting the heads off of innocent foreigners might be a bit of a gentle push towards their view, however the beheadings in Iraq probably do not count. Because the perpetrators of those beheadings were defending the Iraqi people (even though they themselves are not Iraqi) from the immoral invasion that the non-military rebuilders in Iraq had initiated.
Rebuilding the shit hole IS however an afront to Islam though...just ask a jihadi. I think that is why they want to blow things up.
I understand the need to pin these kinds of events on the back of some dark conspiracy concocted by the US government. What I do not understand is how so very many people seem to think that the US is the ONLY government capable of dirty deeds. Who gains to benefit from a war with Iran? Everyone knows that we are spread way to thin to take on another front, the GOP would also suffer greatly if GW were to dive into Iran, and Iran has only a drop of oil in the oil bucket. So again who would benefit? IRAN certainly would. Why not? Make the GOP look bad, swaying an election further towards the dems, who when punched, stabbed, shot, hung and disemboweled would still want to talk and find a reason that we angered our sand dwelling 'friends' who want nukes, but not for war, and want rockets but not for attacking, and want nations removed from the map but in a friend nonviolent, violent way. These are all very very blatantly obvious details. It is easy to blame the US, the administration, the way of life, etc. could it be that foreign powers and administrations. The far left has been doing that for years. Natural disasters occur, its the govn'ment's fault; oil prices are up, govn'ment's fault; we are 'unliked' by foreigners, govn'ment's fault; I could go on but you get the point. When will we learn that there are some people who have a skewed perspective. They are damaged mentally by a blind faith in a belief contrary to ours (in general) and they will stop at nothing to remove us from the planet (please recall that one of the last bombing was carried out by mentally handicap victims). So I would not put it past the jihadis to cut the cables themselves either in a effort to sway our election, or to stop news from leaving/entering their sunbaked homes. I say leave them cut.
I always knew that the ancient Nordic legends made infinitely more sense....
In the beginning, Ginnungagap yawned across the great void between the realms of fire and cold. When the warm air from the south met the cold air from the north, the ice of Ginnungagap began to melt. Drop by drop fell forming Ymir, the Frost Giant and first living thing of all. And from Ymir sprang the race of Frost Giants. The drops of melting ice from Ginnungagap also formed Audhumla, the primal cow. Her milk nourished Ymir at the start of creation. As Audhumla licked and licked at the ice of Ginnungagap, she revealed something frozen in the ice. She licked for days and finally Buri, the first man, was freed from his frozen prison. Buri, had a son, Bor, who married Bestla, the daughter of a Frost Giant. They in turn had three sons, Odin, Vili, and Ve. These were the first gods.
Stick that in your frankincense burner and...well burn it...
I say that we provide them the rights under the Geneva Convention....There is a mention (look it up I'm too lazy) that un-uniformed combatants can be classified as spies, saboteurs, etc. and therefore be shot on site without trial. I like that way better. A $.05.223 round verses several years at $30,000/per year of tax payer money for each jihadi. You do the math...Fuck'm
Wind breakage will only work so long as you are there to 'vent' if you have to take a leak you will have to leave. by marking with pee one accomplishes 2 tasks (multi tasking) first, you relieve your bladder pressure, second you area is marked for the next day. Plus there is the shock factor of an irate tech standing up on his chair spraying a nice golden arch as he spins his chair. I could see a National Geographic documentary "The Life of the Illusive and Secretive IT Tech".
