No, I don't think design is that at all. That's exactly what I am saying. She won an award for ideas which are impractical (not to say bad for an environment, it was given to her because of her "sustainability" message, which I don't think has much meaning anymore). I am all about awards for ideas, but when the…

You don't need to be an expert to see that this is clearly silly.

I think it is, because these dumb ideas win "Design Awards" all the time, given by designers.

It's because the rapers were also minors. It's standard practice to keep minor's names out of the record, to protect them. It's a good policy, even when things like this happen.

She made her choice. I am sure she sees this as an equitable trade (if not, she was a fool to do it). Plus, its up to $180 days in jail, the actual time will depend on how much this irritated the judge.

Yeah this girl's life is totally ruined. She should just give up. I mean, being raped makes your life totally over FOREVER.

How inhumane of you.

Sonorous seems like the word of the day on Jezebel.

I don't have a design degree, but I am a scientist. So I tend to be annoyed by pie-in-the-sky concepts which are actually unworkable in reality. Anyone can make up fantastical ideas, its figuring out which ones work and which ones can't where the skill comes in.

Hey wow a course about something we have no information on whatsoever! Sounds like fun!

I doubt she even thought of it. As a "designer" its highly likely she knows nothing about any actual subjects. She just thought up something that seemed cool and drew some pictures. A lot of these types have no concept of feasibility or anything. They just draw a picture and win awards. I mean, even the materials…

There are very few fish in the open ocean. Its a nutrient desert. Water distillation has never ever been an efficient thing to do, thats why California has a water shortage.

Living out in the middle of the ocean makes as much sense as living out in the middle of the desert. There are NO RESOURCES in the open ocean. It's just an endless expanse of water you can't drink. Also, you can't stand on it. There is currently no land shortage in the world.

So the most powerful jocks are also the dumbest, interesting!

I do both. NPR only does the news during part of the day, and after 120 mins or so they just replay packages it seems. I follow around 6-10 podcasts regularly.

Ionized water is a scam. Your body maintains a pH homeostasis. Trying to alter the pH of your body would be a bad idea.

Why do you think they built this laser anyway?

Huh? Umbrellas are a sign of sexism?

It's easy to be a pregnant CEO if you're ultra-rich. You CAN have it all, if you're ultra-rich.

I reserve my rights to think her work is boring. A lot of work which has stood the test of time and was totally original, is crappy.
