You are confusing "America" with "the US federal government". They are two different things. North Korea...really? As a Marxist state, that is a much nicer place.

It's not from Wikipedia. We don't spend all of our time on that website, only you. Why are you all butthurt? What difference does it make? The point is valid, chess is a waste of time beyond learning the basics.

Barbara Streisand to the white courtesy phone.

My question is, does the Constitution apply abroad or not. The Federal Government is petitioning both sides depending on whether or not that particular case works in in favor of their goals or not.

How do you think Hillary made $100,000 in Futures trading? Genius or Luck?

This should do wonders for the emerging cloud economy.

Macosx has its applets but on a desktop. The taskbar and start is there with applets running on a real desktop. Unplug keyboard and start stretches into full screen for tablets. DONE

No, the distilled malt barley drink is called "whisky" if it is made in Scotland, or "whiskey" if it is made elsewhere in the world.

English is the world's second language. Moreover it is the language of science. What other language would you choose for a worldwide contest? Some obscure local language? Or perhaps the slender budget of IAU should be spent on translating their website into 75 different languages? Ridiculous.

Horse Head guy, a Photo Op for Obama, just after he wouldn't go for a photo op tour of the invasions from the south. Priorities!

It's bizarre listening to intelligent adults defend the US government. What the hell? Aren't you the ones who thought that the US government was the devil from 2001-2009? Have we always been friends with Eurasia?
