MySQL has never failed us for data.

What civil right do you believe is threatened here? The one where you control Google's data about you? Not a civil right.

My personal experience suggests the GP is more correct. 20 minutes is enough time to _start_ a good workout. The good stuff happens in the next 20-40 minutes.

Given that the legal framework of our land is Common Law and that the Constitution was designed to build a fair playing field, it is absolutely the job of Judges to ensure Justice. That's the entire purpose of judicial review in America, and a cornerstone of the Judicial Branch's check on the other 2 branches.

As long as people want to know how much longer it takes. We operate in time. This is why progress bars are so prevalent even though they aren't accurate.

Proving my point, it's not 100%.

Non-sequitor. It is _not_ 100% certain that an executed criminal would have committed more crimes.

He was using the wrong system. He's moved on to another wrong system.

Of course they can. That's the entire purpose of the Legislative branch of our government. It's the Judicial branch that is concerned with constitutionality.

Here is my problem with the way we teach math. Calculus is not advanced. It is a different method to doing math. I use calculus all the time. Not because I'm doing Integrals, but because I see the world with Calculus. It is possible to learn Calculus without applying it to the world. What a waste though.

Seems as though this could keep Nokia relevant. I'll be curious if Nokia becomes a hardware vendor for the other cell makers though.

Was with you until here.

Did you mean k-12 education? Primary usually means k-6 and is actually one of our strong suits. It's the 7-12 where we royally suck. This is known as secondary education.

"Their women" are not likely to be more interested if you actually went outside their power structures. They're only "their women" because you call them that. Doesn't change the fact that foreign women are not so interested in having sex with you.

Sounds like the real issue is that Judges rarely have vested interest in the defendants (or the plaintiffs for that matter). I say rarely not because some Judges bring familial bias, but because some Judges have the pleasure of working in small communities where they know enough about everyone. My step-dad being a Municipal Justice of the Peace in Montana is counter-example to every case of cold, hard justice. Of course it's only for those who are silly enough to have municipal problems in small-town MT.
