“We’ve failed to act on terrorism in places that don’t have oil, and we act on terrorism in places that have oil. Therefore we’re only acting on terrorism because of oil”

That was SECDEF’s own words, and I happen to believe him. Not to mention the Supreme Court ruled that gender equality is superseded by military need. The Navy and Marine Corps tests were part of the reason SECDEF made that clear distinction.

Still no source, huh?

“Turkey HAS been buying and selling black-market oil which ISIS is stealing from captured Syrian oil fields and wells. ”

“What does ISIS have to offer the average person?”

“went to destabilize bring liberty the region”

We are energy independent. You don’t really subscribe to the notion that we’re in that region for energy security, do you? If anyone depends on OPEC oil it’s the EU.

“Turkey has been laundering ISIS’s oil”

I thought you photo-shopped that image to POTUS’ face in. Apparently POTUS has a Turkish tank driver doppelganger.

It’s even being denied by the Iraqi Kurds. They’re claiming the tankers are theirs. This is starting to look like an Abbott and Costello skit.

Training Iraqi Kurds. People like to think that all Kurds are the same. They’re not. They may share the same ethnicity, but their populations vary greatly. Iraqi Kurds have a very positive relationship with Turkey (arguably a better relationship than with the Iraqi government). It spans both military and economic…

“ISIS is never going to win the hearts and minds of more than a fringe movement.”

Pagano would have to be up 14 pts going into the half first.

And that’s not even including the Navy’s next-gen radar AMDR.

I find it particularly useful for throwing together a quick timeline as part of a slide deck. Obviously if I’m managing a project I’ll default to MSFT Project instead, but even that can be a pain if it needs to be shared.

This add-in is kind of moot now that Office 2016 has it “baked in”. Just highlight text, right-click, click on ‘Smart Lookup’. You’ll get a definition, Wikipedia page, and web search results. I guess Wikipedia’s addin is also moot now too.

Belichick, but everyone outside of NE seems to hate him. Double standard.

Why is Popovich revered in the NBA, but Belichick is loathed in the NFL for having a similar demeanor? I think both embody what a good coach should be, the double standard just bothers me.

I feel like you have somewhat of a misconception that needs clarification. James Deen is famous not because so many women watch his performances, it’s because so many men do. The overwhelming majority of the market demographic is men.

“No, the Kurds don’t have their own land. The Iraqi Kurds do. The Syrian Kurds do. The Turkish Kurds don’t, neither do the Iranian Kurds.”
