In the future, the Berlin wall will be a mile high, and made of steel. You too will be made to crawl, to lick children's blood from jackboots. There will be no creativity, only productivity. Instead of love there will be fear and distrust, instead of surrender there will be submission. Contact will be replaced with isolation, and joy with shame. Hope will cease to exist as a concept. The Earth will be covered with steel and concrete. There will be an electronic policeman in every head. Your children will be born in chains, live only to serve, and die in anguish and ignorance.
The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.
Well I really didn't think it did, that's why I put it in the WTF thread. If you disagree, ask one of the mods to move it.Originally Posted by Nessus

I do think the biggest problem (with the jacket) would be that wi-fi isn't available everywhere and that neckties aren't always appropriate.
I see many more problems with my multi-person vibe plan. Maybe my favorite not-so-local inventor should stop with the gin-delivery device and start with an orgasm-delivery one instead.

OK, at work we sometimes share remarkable decisions we come accross. Today we had a real gem; a woman suffering from some minor problems nonetheless got full disability because of the fact that in her youth she had been through something traumatic involving a man of non-white extraction which meant that she could not work in the same workplace as non-white men. As it happened the jobs she could still do were all typically done in an environment where she would encounter non-white men. Thus she was considered fully disabled.
I wonder how she does her shopping or if she ever goes out into the street. Given that she lives in Amsterdam where (rough guestimate) at least 1/3rd or the male population is non-white.
Congratulations America
She never leaves the house.
Or has someone run ahead of her with a stick to clear out the non-white men.

Yet you said she suffered "minor problems" being around non-white men. How does that make her fully disabled?
Minor problems besides the one about non-white men.Yet you said she suffered "minor problems" being around non-white men. How does that make her fully disabled?

They probably make more money on the drinks than on the books.I agree! The last bookstore I was in was in Ft. Collins. It had books (obviously), a reading area with chairs and a sofa, a video game area that not only sold games there was also an area/TVs to play on different systems, a music area, a movie area, a gift store, AND a Starbucks! FFS, I only went into the place to buy my son a specific book! It's no damned wonder I can buy a book cheaper in a small town! At least here, we realize that a bookstore should sell books and music...hell, maybe even games and movies...but it shouldn't be a place to sit, kick off your shoes, and read the book instead of buying it!
I love the huge insulated ones! I used to fill them with ice and water in the morning when I went to work, and I had nice, cold water all day! I have a 32 oz one I fill with ice and Pepsi for traveling. I usually get the soda drank, then the ice melts and makes water to drink on down the road. Of course, there are places that I travel that the next place to get a drink might be 85+ miles down the road, so...
Congratulations America
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/29/wo...m.html?_r=1&hpKUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Bright studio spotlights illuminated the faces of four nervous young men, arms linked as they anxiously awaited their fate. Cameramen stood poised, ready to capture the climactic moment. Finally, the chief judge broke the suspense.
Two of the contestants had been eliminated. The other two had taken a step closer to their dream. Winners and losers, each clad in crisp, dark suits and formal black hats, took turns hugging each other.
The competition is called “Imam Muda,” or “Young Leader” — a Malaysian venture into religious-themed reality TV.
The basic premise may replicate that of reality shows, but here, inside an auditorium at one of Kuala Lumpur’s largest mosques, are notable variations on the tried-and-true formula.
Before each episode, the contestants have gathered to recite a prayer, while the challenges they are judged on have included washing corpses in preparation for burial and ensuring that animals are slaughtered according to Islamic principles.
The prize pool, too, offers a clear indication of the detour the show takes from the usual reality show script. Cash and a new car are up for grabs, but the winner will also be offered a job as an imam, or religious leader, a scholarship to study in Saudi Arabia and an all-expenses-paid pilgrimage to Mecca, Islam’s holiest city...
I suppose it was only a matter of time.

Fayetteville police have arrested and charged a mother after her 2-month-old died of methamphetamine intoxication.
Police charged Kaisha Poulson on Wednesday with one count of felony murder, two counts of cruelty to children and one count of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
Fayetteville Police Department officials received a 911 call on March 7 about a 2-month-old boy who was not breathing at a home on Bates Avenue. The child was pronounced dead at the scene.
An autopsy was performed by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and toxicology tests were performed. The results of those tests showed the infant died of meth intoxication.
Poulson was charged in the death of her infant. Police also charged her in relation to an incident in which she allegedly showed a 14-year-old child how to use meth.
Poulson remains at the Fayette County Jail.

Wouldn't a condom have been easier?VILLERS-AU-TERTRE, France — A French woman who admitted suffocating eight of her newborns and concealing their corpses in the garden and garage of her home has been charged with manslaughter, a prosecutor said Thursday.
Dominique Cottrez, a 46-year-old nurse's aide with two grown daughters, said that after a bad experience with her first pregnancy she never again wanted to see a doctor. She admitted delivering the babies herself and placing the corpses in plastic bags. She buried two of the newborns in the garden and hid the other bodies in the garage, prosecutor Eric Vaillant said.
Not sure that burying a baby in a condom would have been any more effective.

Birth control is a sin.
Not sure if it is more or less of one than infanticide, but it's still a sin.

http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/07/29...ior/index.html(CNN) -- Rescue workers drilled a hole in the roof of a suburban Chicago home to extract an 82-year-old woman's body this month.
They couldn't get through the doorway because her home was filled almost to the ceiling with cardboard boxes, furniture, clothing and other junk. She and her daughter had been crawling through tunnels to move around the Skokie, Illinois, house.

I swear I'm losing it. Been trying to work something out and I knew quite a few semi-related figures and was trying to find a way to calculate it. Did it as an algebra equation, and eventually found a solution, but my solution looks ugly to me. I'm thinking there should be a way to simplify it, but perhaps there's not. I don't need to simplify it, I have my answer now, but its bugging me.
Trying to find a I started off with:
a, b and c are unknown but D and t are known. That broke down to:Code:d = a + b t = __a__ a + c where c = b/2
My goal was to find a way of calculating a and since both t and d are known that works, but having the same term on both the numerator and denominator looks ugly. I can't see any way to factorise it to simplify it, but it just looks wrong as a solution.Code:a = t * d 2 - t
EDIT:
I suppose I could say:
That uses all the terms once only, but that doesn't seem any cleaner, having a division in the denominator.Code:a = ___d___ 2/t - 1

Weird. So I had simplified it as much as possible then
Out of curiosity, why do you care if the formula is "messy"? Unless you have tens of thousands of rows, it won't really slow Excel down.
Hope is the denial of reality
I don't really, I'm more concerned as to whether I was missing something.
I normally just splash together anything that works in Excel. At first I couldn't get this one working so I put pen to paper and wrote what all my relationships were before coming up with the result - which will now go into Excel. However it was just looking at it that I wondered if I was missing something.

Americans have supposedly "eagerly dissected every small tidbit" of news about Chelsea Clinton ever since 1993? I knew she was getting married, but I can't say I care. And it's not just because I don't like the Clintons; I was just as apathetic when Jenna Bush got married. And the claim that, to many Americans, she's just "Chelsea" and is in no need of her surname to identify her, is absurd. I can't think of a single person I know who, if I said "Did you hear that Chelsea is getting married?", would have any idea who I was talking about.
Well, that's the News for you. It's not what you decide is newsworthy, it's what the News decide to be news.

Saying "Chelsea" lately meant any American knew it was about her wedding. It's the closest thing we have to marriage "royalty" on this side of the pond. I thought the whole thing was handled very well and quite discreetly in advance (as much as that kind of event can be). It's not like we had to read for months in advance about the dress designer, location, guests.
The bride wore Vera Wang, the mother of the bride wore Oscar de la Renta. Thank God the groom shaved his face!
I find it more interesting that it was an inter-faith wedding ceremony, and the groom wore a Jewish white shawl around his shoulders. Coming pictures will show us if he had a yarmulke or they had a chuppah trellis, and who officiated their vows.
I think it's great though, that they managed to pull off a relatively private wedding in this day and age. Media didn't have a clue about the location or the gown designers until a couple of days ago. Stuff I read sounded like "who are these young kids, we don't know any of them, where are the famous people?"
Aw, I saw some pics on CNN of the wedding just now. Groom did wear a yarmulke and there was a chuppah (but haven't seen pics yet), they both looked quite happy and joyful. Beautiful area and atmosphere.
Supposedly the cake was gluten free and the whole menu was non-traditional, leaning toward vegan.
pretty amazing that a couple of such interest, and the media still doesn't know their honeymoon plans! Good job
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...-on-burka.htmlIsraeli rabbis are to clamp down on the growing number of devout Jewish women wearing the burka by declaring the garment an item of sexual deviancy.
At the insistence of the husbands of some burka-wearing women, a leading rabbinical authority is to issue an edict declaring burka wearing a sexual fetish that is as promiscuous as wearing too little.
A small group of ultra-orthodox Jews in the town of Beit Shemesh chose to don the burka, usually associated with women in repressive Islamist regimes, three years ago in a bid to protect their modesty...
Hope is the denial of reality
j00 kink!
So, who all is turned on by burka wearing? Should I consider that the next time I am looking for slutty attire for a night out?
