This is starting to get funny. Not only they refuse to be shown with Bush, now they start to brag about working with Clinton! http://electioncentral.tpmcafe.com/blog/electioncentral/2006/oct/26/fl_22_goper_shaw_ad_i_worked_with_clinton GOP Rep. Clay Shaw is running the first Republican ad...

Another point about comparing embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Instead of going into boring details, let me use a loose analogy. Suppose that you're asked to write a book. The tools you're given are a pen (with some ink), and a stack of books (already printed with words). Your...

A pragmatic conservative would argue against embryonic stem cell research based on the following reasoning. The adult stem cell research has produced a great deal of successes, while embryonic stem cell research has had little to show. Therefore, we should keep on doing adult stem cell...

It's lame to substitute characters in a joke for politicians that you don't like. Not only it's not funny, it also ruins what originally a very good joke. If you want Bill and Hillary jokes, go for the original ones, like this: Bill and Hillary Clinton are driving in the country near...

A doctor, an architect, and a computer scientist were arguing about whose profession was the oldest. In the course of their arguments, they got all the way back to the Garden of Eden, whereupon the doctor said, "The medical profession is clearly the oldest, because Eve was made from Adam's rib...

This study found correlation between TV viewing for children under 3 and autism http://www.johnson.cornell.edu/faculty/profiles/waldman/autpaper.html

Mark Twain claimed that he found the following excerpt from Eve's diary. "Today in a wood we heard a Voice. We hunted for it, but could not find it. Adam said he had heard it before, but had never seen it, though he had been quite close to it ... It was the Lord of the Garden, he said, ...

After three weeks in the Garden of Eden, God came to visit Eve. "So, how is everything going?" inquired God. "It is all so beautiful, God," she replied, "the sunrises and sunsets are breathtaking, the smells, the sights, everything is wonderful, but I have just one problem. It is these...

One day, after a near eternity in the Garden of Eden, Adam calls out to God, "Lord, I have a problem." "What's the problem, Adam?", God replies. "Lord, I know you created me and have provided for me and surrounded me with this beautiful garden and all of these wonderful animals, but I'm just...

As far as the LLC is concerned, transfer of the assets is not considered a legal sale if the percent ownership is not changed before and after the transfer. We don't know whether this covers Reid's sale unless we know the precise percentage ownership of the land and the LLC. That's why I said...

Not having a written agreement in forming an LLC is perfectly legal and does not in any way allow you or give you the opportunity to skirt the law. Either you have an iq of 50 or you're intentionally pretending to be ignorant.

I don't know whether you're being deliberately ignorant. Written agreements are not required by law. And not having one does not in any way allows you to skirt the law. Written agreements are needed to protect partners against each other. I can only assume that the sole purpose of your...

I still think this AP writer is an idiot. Transfer of assets to an LLC does not constitute a legal "sale" if the percentage ownership of the original assets and the LLC are identical. So the pertinent question is whether there was a change in the ownership percentage when the LLC was formed...

I need to learn to be patient here... Diplomacy actually did work with Saddam. When we defeated him in the first war, we kept him in power and used diplomacy to keep a watch on his weapons program. And it was successful - no WMD was found when we toppled him. In the case of North Korea...

This is the worst explanation of the anthropic principle I have ever seen. You have no idea what you're talking about. Take, for example, the case of lotteries. The chance of anyone winning a multimillion dollar jackpot is somewhere in the neighborhood of one in several million (no surprise...

Actually we know in great detail where his launch sites are. These are very hard to hide, and difficult to have decoys. We're not talking about Saddam's mobile scud missiles. The North Korea does/will not have the technology to launch long range (or even intermediate range) missiles from a...

We would have a far better chance of knocking his launching sites out by conventional means - airplanes and cruise missiles. I would not rely on a 90% chance to stop a nuclear missile. That's almost as bad as 0%.

If trading influences your ideology, you haven't learned how to trade. OTOH, I can see how having made/lost money (either through skill or luck) can change your ideology.
