At the very least his handlers should have the common sense to stop him. They should know there will be a court cases coming up. Even if he is a douchebag that doesn't seem to give two shits he killed someone, he needs to at least have the appearance of remorse not only for his public image but for the criminal and…

Blaming the victim, nice.

Tony Stewart is well known to have temper and anger management issues. Science has proven that when you give in to your temper, it overrides a part of your brain that controls logic and consequence, so your judgement and ability to comprehend consequences are severely hampered.

I remember when Earnhardt died, and there was talk of cancelling the next race. I remember Stewart screaming loudly about how they should keep racing because Earnhardt's death wasn't worth making such a big deal about. It was insensitive, but he did have a valid point that cancelling the race wouldn't change anything.

As a scientist and a science educator, I sense you have little experience or knowledge of science pedogagy. I believe reading your article made me a tiny bit dumber. Incorporating the tools of critical thought into scientific inquiry is one of the best ways to engage students in the fields.

This article seems to be confused. It seems to equate critical thinking, as taught in colleges, with criticism, or more specifically some kind of literary criticism. But that isn't even remotely like what is taught in logic and critical thinking classes at most american universities. In those classes, you are taught…

I think I have to disagree with your titular proposal. Saying "Lets stop trying to teach students critical thinking" is a horrible idea. A better ideal would be "Lets identify the skills necessary for critical thought and ensure those skills are being taught to our children." In my opinion that is the far more…

That's the point. On the one side you have general news sources, including ones with a legal obligation to correct bias, and on the other side you have mouthpieces. It's the fallacy of balance. Global Warming/Evolution/Holocaust deniers do not deserve equal weighting.

The Jersey Shore will soon meet a newcomer named Rory B. Bellows:

No... is proof that we dont know everything yet.

Science is built to make people prove it, if you accepted everything right off we would make no progress.

Science doesn't laugh, people laugh.

Hindsight's 20/20, bro. We should respect our rebels, but challenge the hell out of them, too.

This is both the best and worst thing I saw today.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

There is a side-note to this story, in that it is not just how lucky we are to enjoy things like chocolate, but how lucky we are to have the infinite access to information to satisfy our curiosity. With the flick of a switch we are on the internet and can watch videos about the uses of cocoa, the production process,…

For reals. Just find the biggest, veiniest motherfucker google image search has to offer, and send it back saying "how do you like mine? :)"

Has a dick pic ever worked for anyone ever? "You have deplorable table manners, your stance on same sex marriage is alarming, and your relationship with your mother has a distinct Psycho vibe. However, your penis is pleasingly shaped and the crown has a certain joie de vivre. How soon can we marry?"

I feel like the rule needs to be: don't send dick picks when they're unsolicited, period. If you wanted a dick pick two hours into the date and he wanted to oblige, I don't see a problem (and sexting is hardly the death of Modern Woo...). It's the fact that it wasn't requested that made it inappropriate, not…

I almost mentioned the Hegelian dialectics thing in my review, since it's right there on the surface in this film.
