You're the one who seems to have trouble with comprehension. A google search doesn't reveal anything about the veracity of Michael Moore's claims. Just list a few of the glaring lies that you know of personally to illustrate what a worthless scumbag Michael Moore happens to be.
Way to totally miss and hit mind-blowing.
If your conclusion to the above thought experiment was "most likely" murder, than you are accepting conclusions based on faith in your ability to intuit causes. If you haven't vetted that ability through rigorous experimentation, than yes, you are operating under a faith based belief system. There is a large gulf between an internet skeptic and a scientist. An interesting recent illustration was posted on the makezine blog wrt to DDWFTTW (Dead Down Wind faster than the Wind) vehicles just today. Internet skeptic after skeptic railing about what an obvious hoax they are, how against the basic rules of physics they are, etc etc. But in the end, the proof was in both videos and mathematics. The point is this, science may not be faith based, but those who apply the results of science outside of the specific instances the scientific results are describing are basing that application on various levels of faith.
I like lawyers. You folk help people at their most vulnerable time. I appreciate it, and fuck the rest of the drooling mouth-breathing hicks.
I may be going out on a limb here, but average class sizes have been creeping up for 30 years now. I read one report stating that in California high school class sizes average in the high 30's to low 40's. If we spent money for more teachers to reduce class size and offer more time for individual attention to each student we'd probably see a marked improvement in education standards across the board. I tutor SAT students on the side, and while I use a fixed curriculum, I see a marked difference in my score improvements for a small class (4-8 students) vs a large class (15-20students). Its obvious how the improvement comes about; in a smaller class I have much more time to address specific concerns of my students. So in light of my admittedly anecdotal evidence, I suggest that as a society we invest in training and deploying more teachers with the goal of reducing class size.
I'm just going to leave these search results here:
I liked both those games, but they weren't very difficult. You always had a straight line drawn to the next mission/quest objective and for the most part every quest is "go here and kill/talk to this guy, come back here and I'll give you something." It was like a highly graphical game of fetch. As far as battles, get close, go into VATS, shoot in face. Repeat ad naseum. I got through the entire Fallout 3 game using one tactic. I didn't even see a point in upgrading. I used a chinese assault rifle from practically hour 2 to 30 when I finished the game.
Good game, but still not all that tough.
My roommate was an engineer who worked for theses guys:
http://www.iristechnology.org/
they made a military product that was similar to the solargorilla that could charge any battery the military uses. Impressive engineering goes into military products. Shame it couldn't go in to more helpful civilian products.
Depends on if you are eating in or eating out. If you are making food for yourself $200 can last over a month where I live (Orange County CA.) If you eat out expect to spend about $7 / meal at a cheap eatery. $14/day if you skip breakfast so $200 will last about a half a month.
Hey guess what, Rackspace has the RIGHT to freely associate with whoever they want! Rackspace is a business and is under NO obligation to be the fall guy for this idiot church. They can get hosted somewhere else, perhaps the same servers that host stormfront.org? Or better yet, all the internet tough guys on slashdot today can probably scrape together enough to put the church's site up on some ubuntu LAMP stack and host the site themselves? You think its vital that the book burning message gets out? Fine, host it yourself. Its not difficult from a technical standpoint and its not difficult from a monetary standpoint. But don't think your insipid bigotry is moral justification to tell Rackspace how to run its business.
What Rackspace is doing is legal. What you're doing is justifying hatespeech and using that justification to force a business to behave in ways it does not want to.
The dumb law is part of the patent process. If you are applying for a patent you are agreeing to follow certain rules. If you do not follow those rules you get fined as you should.
There is no problem.
If he were to design a system that generated energy without CO2 production and used that energy to remove CO2 from the atmosphere the total CO2 in the system would go down (the GP's desired outcome) while the output of energy at a distant coal plant would remain unchanged (no thermodynamic issues.)
What energy source could he use? Well, plants figured out they could use the sun to fix atmospheric carbon into solid forms (polysaccharides) and somehow thermodynamics never crapped out as a consequence. The GP never said the energy created by the coal plant would be used to remove CO2, you did. You are projecting your short-sighted myopia and being pointlessly critical of an effective idea.
If we accept that the currently most worrying pollutant coming from hydrocarbons is CO2 and we further accept that solar energy suffers from logistic considerations that prevent solar energy's wide-spread implementation (not my opinion but accepted for purposes of discussion) we can still use that solar energy to mitigate the negative effects of hydrocarbon based energy production (CO2 emissions) while leaving the benefits of hydrocarbons (portability and on demand power) intact.
Try to use that beautiful brain of yours to come up with solutions.
Watch the video you asshole. That's not "clearly" an RPG, it could just as easily have been an extended camera tripod or some other professional camera equipment. You're a twit.
The H means hydrogen ATOM smart-ass.
So would you be willing to say that free markets work in theory? Sounds a lot like communism to me.
