Umm, do you think Putin will sit back while NK messes with his pipeline? I suspect that if NK went that route, something mysterious will happen to Kim Jong-un.

Sign your name to the fact that we will never achieve controlled fusion. Publicly apologize when you are proved wrong.

But we are closer today to controlled fusion than ever before .. we ARE making steady progress. Also, "uncontrolled" fusion has been acheived in the 1950s (ask the residents of Bikini Atoll about it).

Huh? That is so wrong and your understanding of physics so little that I can't even begin to frame a rebuttal within your intelligence level. But maybe there is another way to tell you .. ever heard of the Hydrogen bomb? That's proof right there that fusion can release net energy. Up to 50 MEGATONS of proof courtesy of the Tsar Bomba.

We are making steady progress towards net energy in a controlled setting .. now if there was a stall .. maybe you have a point but we have made steady progress towards achieving controlled fusion. Progress may be 3 or 4 times slower than initially anticipated, but the fact is that we are progressing towards it.

Uh, her endorsement of torture. How about that, I won't do business with or respect anyone who supports torture.

After saying the trigger word, you have to pause .. that's a bit ridiculous and annoying .. I doubt this would catch on .. for it to catch on, it needs to allow you to say a continuous sentence without pausing. The latest chip from audience.com has this feature (called VoiceQ). Their chip is for phones, so it should be possible to implement the same technology in software on a desktop CPU.

Did you not read the second link? Last time I checked humans are mammals.

I call BS. The US govt. doesn't spend $26 billion (cost of Manhattan project in today's dollars) on any single research project. In fact the ENTIRE NIH budget is less than that.

Back in 1986 they regrew the thymus in rats. And actually a guy named Greg Fahy already regrew his own thymus a few years ago .. I dont understand how people can't use Google.

Regrowth of thymus in human: http://online.liebertpub.com/d...

They stopped regrowing the thymus in humans because they don't know if it may have a negative effect to have the thymus in an adult since the thymus normally is completely degraded (evolution may have programmed it to degrade for a reason).

You are not very bright if you think a phone cannot be used to record someone inconspicuously. It's actually very easy. With glass you have to be looking in the general direction and mentally it's difficult to avoid having a zombie stare look in the general direction. With a phone you can just turn off the record screen (or not) and act like you're holding your phone in your hand doing something else like being on the phone or listening to music or even have it peek out of your shirt pocket. Granted there may be image stabilization issues or things getting recorded at funky angles .. But those can be fixed in post processing.

If you don't believe me, next time you're in a public place and it's legally fine to record .. Try it.

You can record people 1000x easier and less conspicuously with a smartphone in your hand or pocket than with Google Glass. Yes SMARTPHONE IN YOUR HAND too. You can hold it in your hand and point it to people without being totally obvious about it. You can act like you are just holding your phone, or texting, or listening to music, or even being on the phone. You don't need to look at the thing you are recording. You may have some image stabilization issues if you have unsteady hands -- but for the most part you can get good video. Of course the easiest way is to have the phone in your shirt pocket peeping out.

With Google Glass, you literally have to stare in the people's direction or general area like a stalker -- it becomes SUPER obvious.

It's true because it can't be disproven.

If this is the sole and leading cause of diabetes, why is it that type I nearly always occurs in childhood or, rarely, in adults? If it's solely virus mediated we would see a more even distribution of type I diabetes.

I'm not ruling it out, but other things have to be at play here.

Industrial (current) uses of boron do not deplete our supply. It stays on earth, in the form of boron. Therefore it can be recycled. We won't run out of boron until we use it all up in the reactors. That will take a thousand years .. by which time we'd be mining other planets not for boron but other exotic fuels.

Have a giant fan with blender blades in front of the intakes. It might be cruel though, so that may be a bad idea. Doesn't sound very humane or jellyfishane .. i am sure there are other ways to deter jellyfish.
