Slashdot could use a -1 Go Back To Stormfront mod
it seems like military experience should be mentioned on a resume/CV (if you actually have it, of course.
I haven't read them in awhile, perhaps this gives me reason to read them again.
Alas, as some other commenters have pointed out, VII isn't going to be an adaptation of an existing story. May the Force be with the writers, since this seemed like such an obvious idea.
Yeah, I'd pick Timothy Zahn's Thrawn books if Episode VII was to be an adaptation of existing Expanded Universe material.
yeah, I feel comedy is OK in regular definition because you can still hear the jokes and see well enough and action benefits more from crisper images.
True, book copyrights tend to be in the author's name. It almost seems odd to me since I'm so used to seeing music copyrights in the label's name. Odd how the RIAA has made the normal seem odd, although I like some of the music under their control anyway.
it's a loophole in the current law that doesn't limit the denomination of platinum coins. so it has to be a platinum coin, although not necessarily $1 trillion exactly.
yes, but the current laws don't limit the denomination of platinum coins, leaving that within President/Secretary Of The Treasury discretion.
Congress could override the veto,but I doubt they would.
I meant providing all the tweets in a simpler form, as opposed to excluding some of the tweets entirely, but I suppose it would make sense to at least test on a small subset of tweets first.
provide a limited version of the database with only some information from the tweets, so there's less data to search through? (of course, keep the full data in case a search depends on it)
The big 'full faith and credit' case, that has never had its day in court, for whatever reason, is probably the one that would erupt if a homosexual couple duly married according to the procedures of a state where such is legal were to demand that a state where it isn't(or is overtly banned at the constitutional level) give full faith and credit to the actions of the state that married them. That one would get a bit touchy...
I figured that clause obviously would have spread gay marriage throughout the US from the states where it's legal.
There are some gay marriage cases on their way to the Supreme Court right now, but they hinge on other Constitutional issues.
"Congress may by general Laws prescribe the Manner in which such Acts, Records and Proceedings shall be proved, and the Effect thereof." may be a loophole that DOMA abuses.
Perspective? Lobotomy began with extremely careful scraping of the brain, meant to do the absolute minimum damage possible. Then some greedy quack in the USA took it to a ridiculous extreme, turning a nice young lady into a wheelchair-bound mess because her stuck-up family was worried about their social standing, and that soon degenerated into a procedure that should have been called a crime against humanity:

That wiki link redirects to the Lobotomy article. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobotomy#Notable_cases mentions http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosemary_Kennedy which seems to fit your description - is that what you meant?
I'm tempted to agree with you on that.
Eugenics does seem logical, although perhaps too coldly logical.
Many things work better in theory than in practice. Is it actually possible to separate eugenics from racism and other such irrational bigotry? Ironically, purging inconsequential characteristics weakens the gene pool. Also, why would homosexuality evolve?
With your bare hands?!?
