So, you discriminate against attractive women? How dare you! Best way to stop discrimination is to stop it.

You're new to this, aren't you? I remember when I was a noob. Didn't matter where, government, local, fed, private industry, etc.. Term is "short skirt sale." Yes, that piece of crap that the only reason why we have it is because a hot chick sold it.

In fact I'm dealing with that crap right now. Of course, they don't want to admit it was a short skirt sale.

Also not true. Nasa could have checked the mirror on the ground. I understand it would have cost about 30K to do that. Since they were sure it was right, and nobody noticed the cone divit was reversed, why bother? I know one of the guys that found the problem and fixed it. He explained in detail, way more than I wanted to know.

Put this paper in the dictionary under junk science. This is stupid.

It would be nice if the gay community would stop trying to push their beliefs on the rest of us. Want to be gay, fine. Don't think I should participate or approve. I don't approve of some heterosexual activities either. Get a room.

Not true. You can't discriminate against a protected group. Homosexuality isn't protected. Race is. If they want that, get it through Congress.

Indeed. Understand that race, creed, religion ARE protected. Sexual orientation isn't. People (and judges) seem to forget that. Not saying it is right or wrong. They should get it protected before shoving it down people's throat through the court system. Before violating a businesses right to religion - that IS protected.

In this case I think they should be bigger than that. The state is doing it, not the people who depend on those services. They probably have no problem with gay issues.

Will say that I think it was really really stupid of the Governor to sign that bill. Maybe he was smoking weed or something.

First you have to be committed. Doc told me I wouldn't make 50, I was 43 at the time. Sent me to the fat doc. I was the lightest there at the clinic, even the women were heavier than I was. They do bariatric surgery. They said they'll shrink my stomach down. For this I'll need to take vitamin supplements, or I'll lose my hair. Then I found out I don't have a bariatric benefit on my health insurance. Might now, didn't then. Thank goodness.

Dude in the next cube was heavier than I was, and I was 305 at the time. He said go HCG diet. I though yea, yea.. yet another fad diet. Then I watched him lose 30, then 60 Lbs. I started at that point. I asked if he were ready to eat dirt at that point, he wasn't. Wasn't hungry. Here's why:

HCG protocol. Google it and read it. AS LONG AS YOU DO WHAT THEY SAY, YOU'RE GOING TO BE SUCCESSFUL EVERY DAY. No, really. Everyone I know that has tried this has been successful. At first you'll gain about 6 Lbs, then you'll lose those 6 lbs and expect to lose a pound every day. Sometimes you won't, don't get upset. Keep with it, you'll lose the next day. Whatever you do, don't cheat. Think of breaking a toe if you cheat, because that'll be about how it is. You'll get those cravings back and it's really hard to keep on it. Just don't do it. Believe me, I know.

  Start weighing yourself every day and keep a record. No exercise bullshit. In fact, don't exercise or you'll likely end up on the floor. Exercise is the crazy left's way of doing things. Sure it works, however you're far better off not consuming the calories in the first place. Work for an hour to burn off 400 calories IF YOU'RE LUCKY? I don't think so. They say you burn 3500 calories/pound. For me 1 Lbs is more like 1500 calories. I can lose 1 Lbs in a day, or spend 3 hours at the gym under heavy exercise? If you have 50 Lbs to lose, you see how stupid that is.

1) Build up fat for two days - eat whatever you want and as much as you want. Be careful, if you over eat too much you'll be sick later in the day. Here's what I did (Start drops now. HCG diet drops, hcgdiet.com, I use hcglean2000 drops. Make sure it's homeopathic. There's no HCG in there, however it works. It's the protocol that works. No you won't grow boobs or anything to do with being female):
    A) Breakfast at Duncan Donuts. 3 donuts.
    B) Lunch at 5 guys, dessert at Cold Stone - large sunday
    C) Dinner at another fatty place, pick up a half gallon of (hersheys) ice cream on the way home.
    D) Have half that half gallon of ice cream at night.
    Next day repeat.
2) Next 38 days you'll be eating 500 calories. Take vitamins, and potassium if you get cramps/charlie horses.
      You can have each day:
      Meal:
      A) 6 ounces of meat - 3 for lunch, 3 for dinner - other types of meat. Like chicken and steak, chicken and shrimp, etc.
      B) Veggie - like a whole tomato.
      Snack - afternoon and evening - one fruit. Like one apple, or 5 strawberries. Note, you cannot have 2 small apples. Just one.
3) Next 3 weeks you'll add in more food to level off. If you gain, you must lose it the next day.
4) Next 3 weeks start adding in more carbs and sugars. Again if you gain you must lose it right away.

Now you can start all over again.

If you stop, continue to weight yourself every day. Do not let yourself gain. Always remember - you are the easiest person in the world to fool. Is that cake worth it? Bag of cookies? Of course not. You'll feel bad if you gain again.

I'm 5 years out and 75 Lbs down. I'd like to lose some more, just haven't started again yet. I think my skin is about ready to do that now.
*YOU* CAN do it.

BTW, on the way down I had a LOT more energy. Some days I felt like I had to run around the outside of the building or I'd explode with energy. I mean like I was when I was in the 1st grade. I also got acne back as I got rid of stuff inside. All normal. Goes away when you level off.

Hope this helps someone out there.

Well since Iraq was nothing, what's your point? We set land invasion speed records in Iraq. We took it over way easier than we thought and that caused problems. Like securing schools that were packed floor to ceiling with arms and explosives. Securing the WMDs and uranium... and so on.

Ever been to Iran? They're wondering when the US is coming back. They love us. Just some crazies there holding them back like it's the 8th century.

It'd be ok if they would raise the speed limits to what they should be. In the states it's intentionally to slow. Allows them to write tickets.

For those that want to do the speed limit, get the hell out of the left lane! Let me pass right by you.

Yes, I speed. A lot. 55 MPH speed limit on the way to work and I'm not happy unless I'm at least at 70. That's what the road was built for when it was built in the 1960s.

I'll do the Cigarette man part.

You're new here, aren't you? You'd think that would be the case. Only when bashing citizens. Like taking guns away from law abiding citizens and allowing criminals to have guns. The "remedy" to all of this needless swatting is more money and more swat teams and more violence. They'll use the number of calls they get and incidents to show the "need". Seen it over and over again.

The right way to do it is through the legislature. Call these guys on the carpet. Make the explain why they do the stupid stuff they do, and cut their budgets until they capitulate, or pass laws to stop them.

Here's a thought, the police shouldn't be so militarized. More Sheriff Taylor, less Rambo.

And pass up an opportunity to be Rambo and play with guns? They live for this stuff.
Calmly walking up to the door, ringing the bell and asking if there's a problem - well that's just not cool.

Search for education, and get mad. What bullcrap. Nobody seems interested in stopping them. They give police a bad name.

Not a poor thing. Just like everyone else. Probably less than some, more than others. I'm not complaining. Wouldn't do any good anyhow. We all are victims of discrimination at some point. Part of life. Just un-bunch your panties and go on. The best way to stop discrimination is to - stop it. No restricting guys to force women into something they don't want. If they want it, they can do it and don't need help. Believe me, they're smart. In fact we shouldn't help them. People don't appreciate things as much that way.

Facts are facts however and males are outnumbered on campuses because of "helping women." There is a lot of systemic discrimination against males and I'm sure you know it if you think about it.

Can't comment on game journalism. I know nothing about it. This is slashdot after all. Not into big games, into smaller amateur sports. However if it's like normal journalism, it's crap. Nothing to do with reality.
