The same thing happened to me!!!!!!

A friend of mine asked me to record "The Walking Dead" for him. He said he would come over and watch it sometime. I set the DVR to automatically record the show. A few days later I looked as my recordings and 71 episodes of the Walking Dead had been recorded!!!

I watched part of one to see what it was about and had to turn it off because I was ready to kill something!!!

.. what is your favorite food to munch on.... I always go right for the chips and dip.. or a whole can of Pringles chips.. what do you!! like to munch on... any quick and easy recipes..
would be appreciated..


Based on the above ... forget the pringles. Get some large blue corn chips, toast snacks in a bag, bagel chips (my favorite), or whatever gives the best crunch and flavor.

Buy some Velveeta and canned Ro-tel tomatoes with green chilies. Cut up the velveeta in 1 inch cubes (as much as you want to eat) and melt it in the microwave. Stir in as much Ro-tel as you like and nuke it some more till it is all melted and hot.

Dip bread or chips into cheese dip and smile.

I am from the UK, so forgive me if I dont understand the US situation.

I understand police are people, but citizens are people too. If a policeman is murdered by a citizen then it is bad, but if a citizen is murdered by a policeman it is surely equally as bad.

In both our countries the murder of a policeman (/woman) is somehow deemed more tragic or more worthy of report, or even more worthy of investigation than if a civilian is murdered by a policeman. Would you agree? Why is that?

Unfortunatly a bad cop seems to be protected by good cops and by good judges. Why is a bad cop not 'hung out to dry' by his/her peers so the organisation as a whole as well as its individuals can gain trust, integrity and move towards the ideal of no bad cops in the same way an ideal society has the minimal number of criminal citizens (which is surely why laws and police exist in our society)?




In general, the police are heroes who put their lives at risk protecting the public. To murder a hero is a big deal.

Of course, if a policeman murders a citizen, it is a big deal also but, generally speaking, the people the cops shoot are not heroes. They are usually scumbags shooting at the police.

The plan of socialists, all along, has been to void the US Constitution and replace it with a socialist form of government.

The means towards that end is to first void the First Amendment. That stops speech that counters the Socialist Movement. You see that happening today at all universities and in the mass media.

The second method is take over the media and carry a false narrative to support socialist policies and candidates openly and shamelessly. That portion of the plan has already been put into effect. Truth no longer matters to the mass media and ability of the media to shine a light on political folly is all but gone.

The third method is to remove the Second Amendment effectively by simply stating by the mass media and socialists that it ...

A. Never really applied and/or existed as a "right".
B. Should be eliminated due to "common sense".
C. Maybe applies to guns but not to ammunition.
D. Maybe applies to rural areas to not to urban areas.
E. Only applies to the types of guns people owned two hundred years ago.
F. Death by guns is caused by the gun itself and there is no connection to a human pulling the trigger.
G. Death by a gun is the fault of the company that manufactured the gun.

The fourth method is for the public to give individuals such as the POTUS and the SCOTUS the power to overrule the Constitution simply by the public lacking the will to protest properly when they do.

The Fourth Amendment to the Constitution, prohibiting illegal search and seizure, was effectively eliminated by the IRS many years ago.

The last method is to effectively eliminate the Tenth Amendment by absorbing all the unwritten authority it gives to the States and to the People into the Federal Government making the Federal system "All Powerful". At that point (which is pretty much here already) the Constitution simply becomes an old meaningless piece of paper.

Usually, when one equates science and religion, there is a lack of understanding of both.

If one believes in God, there is no reason to think that science violates God's rules.

If one believes in science, there is no reason to think that both set of rules aren't the same.

The problem with the laws of science and the laws of God is that both are interpreted by man.

Perhaps the real question is ... If Obama pardons Hillery for multiple counts of treason and obstruction of justice, is she still eligible to run for office?

Back to reality ...

Actually, most sex occurs in the brain. Pleasure, sensation, feelings, excitement, etc., all are the brain's interpretation of what the senses bring in. Different people are excited and aroused by different (to some degree) stimuli. Some can be "turned on" by a sexy song (listen to Enigma do "Principals of Lust" for example.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJ-TLZcS0Es

Visually, the brain is "turned on" by various views of the the opposite sex's body (duh!!!). Different things excite different people (I am excited by BBQ ribs). Clothing seems big to some, makeup to others.

Obviously, touch is one of the biggest factors in sex and is the primary stimuli that leads to climax.

Memories and the thought process also play a big part in sexual excitement. Some, not me, get off to visualization of having sex with other people while having sex. I guess maybe that is part of "role playing" ... maybe not.

The moral to this story is that sexual experiences come from many directions and are enhanced by the combination of as many as possible without becoming a distraction. It's all in the brain and different parts of the brain work differently but several places in the brain have sexual components.

Teamwork is best!:wink:

On Women:

Yes, I knew instantly. Upon meeting her, my only goal was to make her happy and her life better. Best decision I ever made. She purrs and sweet talks me as she pets me a lot. We handle each other with care! Life is like a dream, but better.

On Bikes:

I gave my triumph 650 to my best friend and bought a Harley Wide Glide. The first time I rode her I knew instantly. She purrs and sweet talks me and I pet her a lot. Maybe I would have been a little happier with a Road King with floorboards as pegs can become a little tiresome but my Wide Glide handles like a dream ... or better!

Moe, you should check your source before claiming "scientific" authority.
The data you posted is known to be biased by leaving out the pole regions and not calculating effects of "El Nino".

From The Royal Meteorological Society
"Abstract

Incomplete global coverage is a potential source of bias in global temperature reconstructions if the unsampled regions are not uniformly distributed over the planet's surface. The widely used Hadley Centre–Climatic Reseach Unit Version 4 (HadCRUT4) dataset covers on average about 84% of the globe over recent decades, with the unsampled regions being concentrated at the poles and over Africa. Three existing reconstructions with near-global coverage are examined, each suggesting that HadCRUT4 is subject to bias due to its treatment of unobserved regions.

Two alternative approaches for reconstructing global temperatures are explored, one based on an optimal interpolation algorithm and the other a hybrid method incorporating additional information from the satellite temperature record. The methods are validated on the basis of their skill at reconstructing omitted sets of observations. Both methods provide results superior to excluding the unsampled regions, with the hybrid method showing particular skill around the regions where no observations are available.

Temperature trends are compared for the hybrid global temperature reconstruction and the raw HadCRUT4 data. The widely quoted trend since 1997 in the hybrid global reconstruction is two and a half times greater than the corresponding trend in the coverage-biased HadCRUT4 data. Coverage bias causes a cool bias in recent temperatures relative to the late 1990s, which increases from around 1998 to the present. Trends starting in 1997 or 1998 are particularly biased with respect to the global trend. The issue is exacerbated by the strong El Niño event of 1997–1998, which also tends to suppress trends starting during those years."

The NASA Earth temperature data is from actual measurement. If one does a quick search on the internet, "data" can be found to make any point, but the data may already have been proven to be "biased"

Your point of view has a bias.

The missile complexes don't exist ... at least not in the numbers they claim. The claim gives pride to the supporters and is intended to strike fear into their enemies. Even if there is only one cave, can we be sure where it is?

We should have kicked their butts long ago.

It has been proven statistically that cops don't shoot more blacks than expected by the number of crimes the blacks commit. The real problems are that blacks commit more crimes probably due to the large number of broken homes that put them in that mindset.

If black lives really mattered to the ones chanting the chant, the focus would be the thousands of black on black murders due to inner city crime.

The cops are a scapegoat to hide the real causes of the real problems.

the "rods from god" weapon can effectively take care of these bases, as long as they know their exact location...

Footfall is a 1985 science fiction novel written by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle. It was nominated for both the Hugo and Locus Awards in 1986,[1] and was a No. 1 New York Times Bestseller.[2]


After their initial assault, the Fithp land ground forces in the center of the North American continent, primarily in and around Kansas. They defeat efforts by a National Guard detachment (and, somewhat later, three American armored divisions) to dislodge them by using orbital lasers and

barrages of kinetic energy weapons

, but a combined Russian and American nuclear attack wipes out their beachhead. The Fithp, who are familiar with nuclear weapons but prefer to use cleaner ones, are shocked by what they consider the barbarity of humans' willingness to "foul their own garden" with radioactivity. Human protagonists, however, are exultant with victory.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Footfall

quite entertaining if you like the Genre!





Excellent book. They combined some of the characters in the popular "Ringworld" series.:thumbsup: The books are well known for being the "hard science" form of science fiction where many of the concepts described could actually be done and maybe someday will be done.
