The Tigers are on track to outdo the 1995 Angels choke.

Yet another reason for me NOT to use Edge.

Which games did Twilight see?

There is a reason why continental Europe (and with it the countries they colonized) drive on the right: the French Revolution and Napoleon.

Traditionally, people kept to the left side of the road, which was already the rule in Ancient Rome. In France, with coaches, carriages and riders keeping to the left, pedestrians started to walk on the right, so they could see oncoming traffic and step aside not to block the coaches and riders, which were mainly aristocracy. In the French Revolution, everyone was a citizen, and now, everyone kept right, and especially the military marched on the right side of the road. In the Napoleonic Wars, this was carried over to most other European countries with the exception of the British Islands and Northern Europe, and now, this is the rule everywhere except in the British Commonwealth and Ireland.

To me, this is a manager not fit for his job. The young worker had handed in his vacation in advance, and the manager knew that he was on person short on staff. Still, he was not able to adjust workload accordingly. This is solely a fail on the manager's side, not an attitude problem of the young worker.

Climate change has political ramifications. But that's not the problem at hand here.

Climate change poses big political questions: 1) Do we want this? 2) If not, do we want to do something about it? 3) Either way, who will pay for it?

"Politization" means that people try to answer 3) with "someone else than me" by either claiming question 1) does not exist at all, or answer 2) depending on their political affiliation, completely ignoring 3).

Oh wait, you're serious?

And the converse. The company gains productivity, because instead of staying home and not working when I've got [INSERT-MILD-ILLNESS-HERE], odds are I will be at home working at my job, because while I want to stay out of the office to protect my co-workers, I'm feeling good enough to work.

When shoud that have been? I am in the field since about 30 years, and I can't remember those alleged days.

This might work if the people from your team are in the same office building. But if your team is spread via several locations, the benefit of being in the office is starkly reduced.

The "higher up" would be the Minister of Defense, and if that fails, the Chancellor of the Republic Austria. But as the head of Direktorat 6 and the Cyber corps is not a political appointee, but a career soldier, it's quite complicated for the Minister of Defense to buy Office Licenses while the head of Direktorat 6 refuses to install it on any army computers.

That's no moon.

I dunno. China is a "market socialist" system -- which is a contradiction in terms. If China is socialist, then for practical purposes Norway and Sweden have to be even *more* socialist because they have a comprehensive public welfare system which China lacks. And those Nordic countries are rated quite high on global measures of political and personal freedom, and very low on corruption. In general they outperform the US on most of those measures, although the US is better on measures of business deregulation.

Max Headroom, anyone? It was illegal to turn off the ads.

I'm just waiting for the Blipverts.
