I hate this show because it gives a very incorrect impression of how these kinds of investment deals are done. It’s completely wrong.

Never heard that, but there is a service first the blind that does that exact thing. So maybe you turned it on.

I think they just replaced ‘The Emperor’ with ‘The Party’ and kept the heriarchy of duties.

If I remember Confuscious correctly, an abusive parent such as you describe has failed in their duty to their children and then has no right to expect the children to fulfill their duty to the parent. Each tier of Confuscious heirarchy is a tw0-way street where one expects fielty for having given it.

Once again with these studies, the main culprit is restaurants and supermarkets. Not the consumer’s kitchens.

I was in the Disney Store recently and the costume for the main female character was in the Star Wars section, which was on the boy’s side of the store.

Make a reservation at The Restaurant at the End of the Universe and the cow will introduce itself and advise you on what cuts will be particularly tasty.

Every television news media outlet got rid of their investigative journalism and research departments because they didn’t have a sufficient Return on Investment. Simply put, hard hitting investigative journalism didn’t provide a sufficient boost in the ratings, while celebrities and viral videos do. CNN was the last…

He sounds like he should be on the Gawker staff, exclusively writing about the evils of gentrification.

The ‘h’ is silent and you need more u’s.

Would you rather all women no longer wear makeup or that all men have to start wearing makeup too?

You know, its just as likely that the POTUS twitter feed is maintained by some 19 year old Intern from Yale who got tired of reading this kid’s multiple posts and clicked block without really thinking about it.

There’s a book series that gives a good explanation. The xenomorphs take on the basic form of their hostshosts, only more deadly. And they evolve quickly to meet challenges. As seen in the fourth film when they increase in intelligence and problem solving skills.

Under copyright law, there is room allowed for “Fair Use”. That is where all the non-profit, personal use comes in, including fan fiction.

There needs to be a clear line between protecting the creator/property owner’s right to profit from their creation and allowing small, independent fan works.

Penn &Teller Bullshit did a good piece on the Dalai Lama. How before the Chinese kicked them out, they were a ruling, authoritarian government where the priests ruled and the Dalai Lama had absolute power. They were rich and powerful.

I’m really hoping that its satirizing that genre. Muppets are at their best when doing satire and subversive humor.

The difference here is that this is willfully designed into the vehicle to skirt the law where the other recalls are about mistakes made in good faith (no proof to the contrary). Willful action should always merit severe punishment.

I really thought bio-diesel was going to be the turning point that would make diesel engines popular, but it just hasn’t happened. Don’t know of a single pump in driving distance dispensing bio-diesel for cars. Have seen it distributed for home heating oil.

Rand is much more reasonable than his father.
