That's impossible since this isn't a meaningful or productive idea.

God I can't wait until Sony screws this all up and makes this franchise unprofitable for them...

"Is there mysterious gray market where expensive psychological research is done and never submitted to peer review journals?"

"The main thing is that ethical rules prohibit human subjects being used without their knowledge, permission, and consent. The rules for human trials also require that a subject be able to cease being a subject."

It's all laid out pretty clearly if anyone actually cared enough to

I think you're wrong. Facebook has, still does, and will continue to do experiments on its users.

There is some validity to the point about the funding being split. The reason why competition dilutes the funding is because NASA (like the military) often funds the early R&D for projects, so the more competitors their are, the more the money going for R&D gets spread across multiple projects instead of concentrated

As a long time book fan, I resigned myself years ago to the idea that I am going to get HBO's version of an ending rather than Martin's. So he can tell me to go fuck myself all he wants. But I'm not buying another book of his until The Winds of Winter comes out, and maybe not even then, since I will probably have

I applaud Simon for having the guts to say this publicly. Bicyclists in my city are a complete nuisance and regularly feel that they own the road. Be it running a stop light/sign, swerving across 4 lanes of traffic while talking on their phone or general lack of awareness, it's a complete pain in the ass for

This devastating episode, along with many other moments in the DCAU, is what convinced me of Superman's potential as a character. I still don't know why the showrunners behind the DC Timm-verse weren't just handed the reins to the live-action adaptations. They clearly had more love and understanding for these

I'm not saying we're not going to Mars... there are other launch systems in development. The SLS requires the capsule being developed by Boeing, which is so dramatically behind schedule it is embarrasing. Space X will have the Falcon heavy, and its Dragon v2 ready before the SLS, with all of the money thrown at it.

Fair enough, but how many delivery vehicles and existing capsules delivering material to the ISS does Boeing have? This is a huge amount of press for a mockup that has no existing technologies behind it.

Richard Feynman did an awesome right up on why the shuttle exploded, in the year following the explosion. He pointed the finger directly at the management structure at NASA, and political pressure being applied by the Reagan administration. It was largely ignored, and Feynman pushed to have it included in the final

Just amazing how so few series end with such a perfect final shot: No grand battle, no sentimental good-byes or major deaths or such. Just the crew playing poker with Picard finally joining them, this unique bond of friendship showcased full-scale and the camradarie that made the show work so well. No bang, no

Why it's worth playing: It's the Final Fantasy game that set the template for what most people think of Final Fantasy. Rather than a limited tabletop-RPG sim, FF4 was the first Final Fantasy game to push a narrative that played out like an Arthurian tale. This story has it all: friendship, love, betrayal, kings and

Why It's worth playing: Play as your favorite shroom eating goomba squashing plumber in a world that gives you a different perspective on characters you thought you knew so well. See King Koopa cry as he is kicked out of his own castle and reluctantly join forces with Mario to save the land that he sees as his!

It might actually be much, much safer. I mean it is for air travel.

He made an awesome transitional power source.

I'm a pediatrician, and I also have a PhD in molecular biology with a focus on vaccines, so generally I know what I'm talking about. I get so fucking tired of idiot parents equating their google searching and garbage science to my decade of medical and science training, I sometimes just want to ask them why they

Oh, dear. Do you really not understand that just because your child is healthy now (and hopefully remains so) it doesn't mean that you aren't endangering his health seriously?

I live in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. My friends just had a kid about 7 weeks ago. Their pediatrician is dealing with outbreaks (small ones- 7-12 kids) coming down with tuberculosis. This is in America. In 2014. In one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in the country.
