Re: Apple Keyboard Review

Les — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 13:46:39 -0000

I love the look and the light touch.
It can give off static discharges. I got a shock this morning.
On a much more trivial note. I'd like the corners of the keys to be slightly less sharp to the touch but they certainly aren't bad or even worse than other keyboards.
The surface of the keys has slight sandpaper like quality. It's very slight but you can feel it and hear it.
All-in-all very cool.

Re: 1and1 scams

Les — Thu, 20 Sep 2007 09:54:51 -0000

I have been a customer of 1and1.co.uk for 3 or 4 years. In that time I have registered 30+ domains with them, spent a lot of money with them and on the whole had a pretty fault free service. HOWEVER their tech support is in the Philippines and it is unfortunately very poor.
Recently I have had to rehost 3 websites elsewhere simply because they have either mysteriously ceased to work or have gone very slow. The respose from 1and1 tech support is always to fob me off so I have found that for my sanity rehosting is the quickest and easiest solution. I have started a programme of moving all my websites from 1and1.
Perhaps one day when 1and1 lose a significant part of their customers they will take customer service seriously.

I Agree, But This report is not clear one way or the other concerning the status of the employee's terminated by the company.

If they are illegal, then D'amico's should be applauded for their proactive approach to the immigration issue.

Re: When Benchmarks Measure Nothing

Les — Tue, 10 Jul 2007 08:45:57 -0000

They Measure Iraqi commitment While I'll agree that the benchmarks CONGRESS chose to measure success have little to do with US military efforts, surge or no surge, they do measure the effectiveness (willingness) of the Iraqi parliment to take control of thier country. I beleive that was what congress wanted to know. IIRC, during the US debate on the bill, the Iraqi parliment was planning a recess... Bad form. The fact that they have yet to make progress on the legislative items in the benchmark does not bode well for them regarding future US support.

The military metrics you crave are in fact being measured, as demonstrated by the O'Hanlon data, it's just that they are not currently tied to future war funding yet.

Why do liberals insist on using homophobia Andy:

What makes you think he's afraid of queers?

The fact that many of us think homosexual activity is wrong does not make us afraid of it.

Of course, a liberal cannot accept that, they have to create a term they consider deragatrory for those who hold views contrary to thiers.

So does that makes you conservaphopic?

Re: Iraqi Gays Suffer With or Without U.S. Occupation

Les — Thu, 12 Jul 2007 09:31:44 -0000

Accordiang to Wikipedia A phobia (from the Greek ????? "fear"), is an irrational, persistent fear of certain situations, objects, activities, or persons. The main symptom of this disorder is the excessive, unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. When the fear is beyond one's control, or if the fear is interfering with daily life, then a diagnosis under one of the anxiety disorders can be made. [1]

I suppose you have problems with the definition of "is" also.

So you admit homophobia means fear. And it is also incorrectly applied even using your definition.

Re: Not Going Away: National Abstinence Clearinghouse Comes to Minnesota, Part One

Les — Thu, 12 Jul 2007 10:37:44 -0000

Your becoming predictable Abstinace is a personal choice, I neither support or oppose it. I called you out on the "choice" issue, not abstinance. It is a rather effective birth control method though.

Surprise surprise, a pro death type automatically thinks a pro life advocate is anti birth control. You couldnt be more wrong. I have absolute no problem with increased access to birth control. In fact I encourage it.

As you feel a fetus is not alive, I take it you are working to appeal the recent laws which charge those (other than the mother and the murdering doctor) who kill a fetus with murder, and those who kill a pregnant woman with not one, but two murders.

Suppose a woman is on the way to the clinic to abort her child, gets in a wreck, and the baby dies. Other than the normal after accident charges, No harm, no foul, on the death of the child correct?

Whats you position on the guy who kicks his pregnant girlfriend in the belly and kills the child. Simple assult on the mother?

Re: Not Going Away: National Abstinence Clearinghouse Comes to Minnesota, Part One

Your perception is off. Trouble with that analogy is the towel, while old, isn't worn out, it still serving it's intended purpose, and will for generations to come.

You can call a shovel a rake all day, it doesn't make it so.

There is no such thing as a "marriage" between two people of the same sex, not matter how loud and long you scream it's so.

BTW, I take it in your extensive research of MN politicians, not one single DFLer has been divorced, or had other marriage problems. Nor has any gay folks.

Re: The YouTube Debate: Softballs or Daggers?

Les — Tue, 24 Jul 2007 06:11:00 -0000

Nothing new, One issue entirely avoided. As I posted on another blog:

Overall, there was nothing unexpected in the debate. I thought Biden looked the strongest.

The Dork in question 38 is NOT representative of the rest of us gun owners, and I have to say I agreed with Biden's response, probably the one and only time I'll agree with him on 2nd amendment issues.

Not being a utuber, I'm curious as to what other gun control question may have been submitted, and if any, why they picked this obvious nut case to represent American gun owners and sportsmen.

The other thing I noted was not one word about the abortion issue.

Was kind of a fun format, although I'm not clear on why all the candidates didnt get to respond to each question. Kinda hard to differentiate between them when only one or two of the seven were allowed to answer a given question, and other's who attempted to when called upon later were shut down.

Re: When Opinion Polls are Manipulated

Les — Wed, 25 Jul 2007 09:16:57 -0000

Who wrote the question? The trouble with discussing poll results is in most cases, the actual questions are not disclosed. And even if they are, I find that in most polls I've read (or participated in) the questions either do not allow responses (or dont allow for qualifiers) that represent my true feeling on the issue at hand.

Take your example: "Bombings and other types of attacks intentionally aimed at civilians are sometimes justified."

Bombing when? during peacetime, or during a time of general warfare with another nation state?

Has the U.S. declared war on the nation that might be bombed?

Has the other nation declared war on the U.S?

Has a treaty driven tripwire been triped, i,e, N Korea invades the south with 3 Mechanized divisions?

Have we been otherwise provoked, and attempted other action prior to bombing, Ala Qadafi in Lybia?

Or, are you asking about a U.S. "pearl harbor" style attack?

In other words, the term 'sometimes" make the question itself invalid for measuring things, it is imprecise.

Now, I'm not taking issue with you concerning US policy on bombing anyone, I'm just pointing out that polls by nature cannot reflect the true attitude of those polled.

I wont even mention my feelings about polls that surveyed "1000 likely' whatevers as representative of the nation, or even a city.

The polls that count are the ones on the second Tuesday in November. Others are the poll designers dreams.

There you go with the definitions again Andy, You might want to check a dictionary yourself. You'll see no reference to distortion or attack in the definition of strawman.

strawman
- In general, a strawman is an object, document, person, or argument that temporarily stands in for and is intended to be "knocked down" by something more substantial

http://searchcrm.tec...

or:

Noun 1. strawman - a person used as a cover for some questionable activity

figurehead, front man, nominal head, straw man, front

beguiler, cheater, deceiver, trickster, slicker, cheat - someone who leads you to believe something that is not true

2. strawman - a weak or sham argument set up to be easily refuted

straw man

specious argument - an argument that appears good at first view but is really fallacious

3. strawman - an effigy in the shape of a man to frighten birds away from seeds

bird-scarer, scarecrow, scarer, straw man

effigy, simulacrum, image - a representation of a person (especially in the form of sculpture); "the coin bears an effigy of Lincoln"; "the emperor's tomb had his image carved in stone

http://www.thefreedi...

This is the second word I've seen you use that you do not seem to understand the definition of. If nothing else, you make a good case for the position of editor in any communications media.

Your Bias is showing You wrote:

Typical leftist hype. Being against Illegal immigration is not being "anti-immigration"

Most, if not all, folks who think illegal immigration need to be controlled have no problem with legal immigrant at all.

Another thing; Is a burglar not yet arrested merely "undocumented"..

Entering this country illegally is a crime. Those who do it are criminals, regardless of the why's of thier actions. Much like the law preventing notorious criminals from benefiting from thier crimes by writing a book or selling movie rights, they also should not be allowed to benefit from thier illegal actions.

Now, if they go home and return legally, Great, I wish them well, they got away with it. But they have to go home and return legally...

That is not ANTI IMMIGRATION.

Maybe you answered your own question They probably expected comments like this:

Which is intirely different than:

--which shows there is at least one thin on which the pro-life and anti-life activist agree"

Take your example: "Bombings and other types of attacks intentionally aimed at civilians are sometimes justified."

Bombing when? during peacetime, or during a time of general warfare with another nation state?

Has the U.S. declared war on the nation that might be bombed?

Has the other nation declared war on the U.S?

Has a treaty driven tripwire been triped, i,e, N Korea invades the south with 3 Mechanized divisions?

Have we been otherwise provoked, and attempted other action prior to bombing, Ala Qadafi in Lybia?

Or, are you asking about a U.S. "pearl harbor" style attack?

In other words, the term 'sometimes" make the question itself invalid for measuring things, it is imprecise.

Now, I'm not taking issue with you concerning US policy on bombing anyone, I'm just pointing out that polls by nature cannot reflect the true attitude of those polled.

I wont even mention my feelings about polls that surveyed "1000 likely' whatevers as representative of the nation, or even a city.

Re: Half a Million Kids in the US Have Autism

Les — Mon, 07 May 2007 07:12:55 -0000

http://autism-prevention.blogspot.com/

The reason for the rise in numbers of children with autism is one that average paternal age is so high, once the father is over 32 autism will naturally rise in incidence. The other main reason is that the definition of autism changed inn 1994 to include childhood schizophrenia which no longer exists and mental retardation. So rising paternal age is robustly associated with autism, with schizophrenia by any name and with mental retardation. Autism is bound to keep rising unless men cryobank their sperm in their 20s to 30 and stop fathering babies naturally by 33.

Re: Half a Million Kids in the US Have Autism

Les — Tue, 08 May 2007 19:32:28 -0000

The knowledge that autism could be said to be a most severe.autoimmune disorder and is associated like other autoimmune disorders with full blown reactions to vaccinations is old and is found in the scientific literature on autism many times. The parents who notice a huge, negative reaction to vaccinations are not wrong in the least. The only problem is that no one tells the parents the negative reactions that children have are because of damage to the DNA in the children. It has been known for 36 years in the scientific literature that children with autism react to vaccinations and that a family history of autoimmune disorders such as type 1 diabetes, Hashimoto, and other autoimmunes is associated with a higher risk of having an autistic child. Besides advanced paternal age (over 31-32), advanced age of the mother's father at her birth, a family history of Hashimoto's thyroiditis, type 1, rheumatic fever, ADHD, obsessive compulsive disorders, schizophrenia, any ASDs are all associated with a higher risk of autism. Most autistic children have severe reactions to vaccines, to stress, to noise, to crowds, to smells, to touch, etc. Autism is not new and reading the literature on it from the past is vitally important. Also understanding that in 1994 the diagnosis of autism was changed to also apply to childhood schizophrenia and Asperger's and mild problems in socialization is when things got very confusing. One has to study this subject and not be taken in by those trying to profit from an epidemic due to so many men fathering past 32 and to those who had older men fathering babies in their family trees.

Wenger gives us the sweetest football (u wanna win by muscle go support the chavs). One of the finest stadiums in the country. And he brings through young talent (clichy,cesc etc). AND U STILL MOAN.

As for the comment:-

But what have the likes of Rosicky, Diaby, Senderos and Eduardo actually achieved for Arsenal.

Senderos has won a cup medal. Eduardo was brutalised by Taylor as was Diaby by Smith. Its not our fault that teams kick us.

And as for anymous saying:-

if we are still in the title chase by Christmas I will be suprised.!

be prepared to be suprised. Cos the options are simple. We back the team and manager or we sack them. As a gooner fan I've never been so lucky in m life o see MY team play the best football.

Wow! This is awesome! I went to the Dukesfest in Atlanta this year (was the end of June) and I drove 10hours to get there. But it was worth the trip to get pictures with the entire cast. I dont have this DVD set though, so it would be a GREAT addition to my growing collection!

My niece and I used to watch this when it first came out on TV. We LOVED the show and were so disappointed when it ended. Having the series to watch with her during her college breaks would be great!

My teens and I watch this and love to compare the charaters with people we know. Its a great way to bond and funny as heck! With the summer almost here it sure would be a great way to fill some time and insult those we love!

An Aside... I have your veggie bean pot pie in the oven, very excited! What does the cornmeal/flour part look like when you mix it? Crumbley or thick? How do you put it on top of your casserole? Do you drizzle the honey or put it right in the mixture? You should do a recipe link in your sidebar!

They are so sweet. I love seeing pictures of your girls. How do you tell them apart? Are there little differences you see?

Caroline, Thanks so much for the nomination. Even though I like roses I'm not quite sure if I can bring myself to post that "PINK" award badge. I'm glad you enjoy my blog as I follow yours as well. Keep up the good work.

Well said, I love it when I find a story to add to the dates. It brings genealogy to "Life" as it were.I recently received info on my wife's ggg grandfather that I posted on, which made him much more than "just a machinist". Its an insight to their life and times.

Vad minns jag från Idol:
Idol 2004 - 0 (säg inte att Darin är bra)
Idol 2005 - 0 (gillar inte Agnes, men OK - det går hyfsad bra för henne)
Idol 2006 - 0
Idol 2007 - AMANDA!!!!!!!!!!!!
Idol 2008 - 0 (sämst hittills!)
Idol 2009 - MARIETTE
Fast jag tror inte att du vinner. Småungarna röstar nog snarare på den söta (och faktiskt duktiga) Tove eller på den skrikiga Erik. De har redan röstat bort Karolina med den bästa rösten (bortsett från din).
Du är VERKLIGEN bra och du blir en av mina favorit artister länge. Lycka till med din karriär.
