...it doesn't need to qualify every single potential type of research you might be subjected to.

For example - I conducted two studies that mildly manipulated emotion: one used a reliable method for inducing mild negative emotional valence (a Mozart piece played half speed), the other was a part of the experiment itself (hearing words rated negatively in the Affective Norms for English Words (ANEW) dataset).

I think you make a good point - but I do think Facebook was technically in a small amount of wrong, given that they didn't state potential risks in their "informed consent statement."

I think his point is that if you were blind to it - you didn't really explicitly agree to it.

At the same time, I would call the study "minimal risk" from an IRB perspective (I'm on the IRB and have been for years at a different institutions).

Yeeeeeeeeah. That was pointed out immediately and repeatedly.

It became slightly ironic, in a different sense, in 1994, when it became part of BMW.

I really wish we got more European makes and models here in the States. Especially since GM is circling the drain after having gotten a massive bailout. Screw 'em, and let Renault, Vauxhall, and Citroen have a chance. The competition just might make a lazy US industry get off its ass.

I've seen that one, and always liked it, but upon the 16th viewing, I notice that:

Somewhat related - here's a cop in DC parked square in the middle of a sidewalk.

I made more than that fucking your mother last night.

Slow news day?

9*60=540 characters a minute, so unless a lot of those words have negative amounts of characters, you suck at math.

1) I'm starting to agree with other commenters: can we stop the overuse of "because ___" ?

And I believe they break away (more easily than the MC helmet). That thing is going to break some necks, if they get snagged on anything, ever - if the wind doesn't first, you're right.

All jokes aside - that big "bill" above the visor will almost certainly catch on something in a crash, and break someone's neck (when normal designs wouldn't have).

I'd start with a nicely maintained/restored E-type, and that Land Rover that comes with the self-replenishing liquor cabinet.

Do I have to have a ludicrous beard?

With Hyundai and Daimler also spending fortunes on hydrogen technology, can this be Japan's next big development that changes mobility forever?

Brave statements indeed. With the Japanese premier of Toyota's car soon to be followed by US and European sales, the Japanese government pushing for ample subsidies and tax breaks while also aiming to create 100 hydrogen fuel stations by end-March 2016 in urban areas.
