The internment of Japanese-Americans was immoral and unnecessary, the use of census information in wartime to track enemy aliens was less problematic than the internment of Japanese-Americans who were American citizens. The law allowing the use of the census data was passed in 1942 and repealed in 1947.

However, Sherman had every legal right to get census data on farmland (not persons) in any even he used information from state of georgia quoting sherman
"I had obtained not only the United States census-tables of 1860," Sherman wrote in his Memoirs, "but a compilation made by the Controller of the State of Georgia for the purpose of taxation, containing in considerable detail the 'population and statistics' of every county in Georgia" (Sherman)."
Its overpriced. Nintendos market is for those who want a cheap and cheerful video game system for the kids
not the people who want to pay $60 a game. If they had released something like an updated wii with a regular controller
for $100 less it would have sold like crazy. Basically their target market wanted an updated WII not the montrosity that
was the wii U.
If you want to see whats wrong with Oracle look whos running it.
Compared with Larry Ellison...Bill Gates is Mahatma Gandhi.
"A few months ago, a female ex-employee with whom Ellison had had an affair launched a lawsuit in which she alleged that he tempted several female employees into bed with the offer of an Acura sports car. Ellison claimed the offer was a joke but, when questioned, admitted that he had bought four Acuras in the previous year."
If neoteny provides any clues "homo animus" or the anime man may be our likely future.
humans a few million years down the line will be looking like eurasian anime characters
with cuteness not intelligence the most dominating feature although as they say looks
can be deceiving.
The human race will be okay...for now.
Keystone XL is a pipeline to haul CANADIAN oil that ran through American enviromentally sensitive areas and over ogalla aquifer which supplies water
to 27% of the irrigated land in the US.
Now if you want to make an argument for a pipeline to haul American oil that doesnt involve danger to aquifers
and enviromentally sensitive lands im all ears.
. "However he had a ton of knowledge about the company, projects and people, and in some ways he was the department's "memory". He also had good ideas about how to organise teams and company processes, and he was a brilliant coach. If that guy is a "D" player you need a new fucking report card.
It used to be cool but now there are so many wiretaps that its become a pain in the ass from an administrative and technical standpoint and a pr nightmare.
I wish I had a +1 funny mod point for him

The people targeted by the NSA were not innocent political activists they were hardcore radicals they were jihad and Al Queda supporters.
This wasnt necessarily effective at directly stopping them from doing terrorism but I see nothing wrong with using that information to discredit them with their followers or blackmailing them for intelligence purposes or become informants.
The constitution does not protect non-citizens outside the US who advocate violent acts against Americans and nice people(non-muslims and non radical muslims) from being embarassed or blackmailed or whatever other non-lethal dirty tricks we wish to do.
I have a snapshot and I also got one for my mom. I have a 26% discount my moms discount is about 11% because she drives a lot more.
It doesnt beep when you "slow down quickly" it beeps when you slam on the brakes. It will not beep when stopped at a red light.
It will beep when she slams on the brakes to avoid someone cutting her off. No its not her fault but yes she was driving in a riskier area. People
who drive in heavy traffic will have more stop and start driving.

"Cocaine is undoubtedly bad for the fetus. But experts say its effects are less severe than those of alcohol and are comparable to those of tobacco — two legal substances that are used much more often by pregnant women, despite health warnings.
"Officials also left open the possibility of financing coal plants that meet strict emissions standards. In the United States, the E.P.A.’s new rules require that any new coal plant emit no more than 1,100 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions per megawatt-hour, just slightly more than a natural gas power plant. The new Treasury rules would permit financing of a new coal plant abroad that also meets those standards."
In other words all those people yelling about "clean coal" need to put up or shut up.
Ironically amazon supports thousands of local bookstores selling used and new books through amazon. If you want to figure out whos back this bill
dont look for mom and pop bookstores look for Carrefour and other french retailing giants. Amazons ecosystem is far more local business friendly than walmart or carrefour.
