It would seem to me that there are many factors that create the optimal class time for a particular student to achieve academic success.
I know that I preferred early start times. I preferred waking at 5:30 am regardless of when I went to sleep. The first 6 hours of my day my mind...
The top 10% of ... say a Princeton class is far less than the cost incurred by the lower 70% and even more than the lowest 20%. An exception would be for those who are athletic members of the Tiger crew. The grants and scholarships given by the various endowments and other means are enjoyed by...
What was it Colson had on his wall.... 'when you have them by the balls their mind and body will quickly follow' (or like that)
So... It is a matter of anatomy.
Must have been a Jesuit.
If the electorate deems a rock to be black and you, the office holder, sees it to be white you must proclaim it to be black... (sort of the Ignatius comment) How else can you maintain membership the all mighty source of law... and power.
Contempt not disgust.
These two particular individuals shared the same notion. One felt the only way to deal with the lad's comment was to render it worthless while the other likewise was determined to hold on to the misguided notion that the priest was thinking something 'earthly' was...
A priest and rabbi were standing in the rain waiting on a bus when the priest remarked that the wrath of God was upon us. The rabbi commented that climate change folks made him sick... Soon a young lad came upon the two and remarked about the beauty of the rainbow now appearing. The priest and...
So...
I have to assume that you don't expect a different result occurring due to your own posts. To assume otherwise would seemingly apply the edification you provide to yourself.
It does seem our Congressional members do suffer from an expectation inconsistent with their actions but...
Hehehehehe
This is amazing!
It took an eclipse to prove Einstein's General Relativity bit so perhaps another Brit can prove your thingi.
This is sort of like the Climate Change thing that some Congress critters deny... I think a bit of security on his part might be in order to...
I can't speak to the first para's theme regarding his trip to Europe since I hadn't been reading the threads during the time in question. All I know with a very high degree of probability is that he spent about a month and a half in Italy, France, England, Scotland and Wales. Had it been my trip...
If you have a genuine interest in the facts regarding Moonster and I being two different people who live about 500 miles apart maybe I can be of some help to that end. I'm not sure about the mechanics that may enable you to determine for yourself this condition. Perhaps you could present a means...
Oh! ...
You mean my use of ellipses or in some contexts aposiopesis. I didn't know there was an age limit assigned to their usage, but whatever.
I must admit that I don't follow the CMS in all cases.
I guess I didn't get the message that ellipses were no longer permitted circa 1999...
Hehehehe,
He spent a fortune for his month and a half in Europe... Not make believe money but real tangible stuff.... I shutter at the cost of his trip.
I'd wager that his navigating the various places caused more pain than the value of such a trip might bring... to him.... but then him...
Perhaps if you found the evidence of your birth place to be compelling enough you'd accept as truth that you were born there... and ergo, You'd have been there....
What might it take to allow you to amend your statement to be less certain about not ever being there (England)?
That does seem to be the case... But, How is that the case is the question. How is it that a rock that is obviously white is seen by some as black and by some as white... Is it not true that it is what it is and both sides should see it the same?
Has it been that long... My, how time flies.
I don't feel qualified to rescue anyone let alone the Moonster... I presume it is plausible to assume it to be the case or at least it may seem to be an attempt toward that end but Moonster and I don't agree completely on the brain issue.
I see it...
I've never seen a moor, and I've never seen the sea... but know I what the heather is a and what a billow be.... (Emily D.) sorta...
In a universe of plausibility comes the holder of certainty.
You don't know Moonbeam... you only know what he writes in this forum but yet you and others...
Ya know... it's ok to be or have the philosophy you have and it's ok for me to have a totally opposite one... It really is ok!
I listen to the ex VP spout off about Iraq and wonder how such thinking is possible and find that just like everything else folks hold on to that does not comport...
I'd opt for ASW aircraft over SSN's. They can drop over wide areas and could pick up that signal and they probably did all that searching already given they had some parameters to operate within along with a noisy beacon. I guess the subs towed array might be as good and as wide and as deep...
That makes the most sense to me. BUT and!
Nothing supports a motive involving a deliberate crashing of the aircraft.
Nothing supports a motive involving a subsequent use of the aircraft to attack some target but yet we have a missing aircraft that didn't self destruct or by pilot design...
Well.... as a young lad I read a book... read lots of books as TV was not on our list of priorities or affordability. Among those books was one from this fellow Orwell... and from that time until this I have seen what I call the coming to fruition of the very notion of the book... A thesis of...
And, in context of this thread, wouldn't taking the life of an innocent result in 'bloodguilt'?
The old testament is quite at odds with the new one and of course this relates to just one of the many gods folks believed in over the years. But, assuming everyone is atheistic for all but the...
I recall the Committee chaired by Frank Church for the Senate and Pike in the House. The ones that had the hearings on what was going on with the spooks and prompted the establishment of the current Senate and House Intelligence Committees. I recall that it was said almost all of the Ford...
If you're not then you exist on the surface of a balloon and have moved so far Right that you have arrived for breakfast with the Left. I don't, however, think you'll like the taste of Lefties...
Wouldn't obedient Jesus not be a bit off by not reconciling the 'thou shalt not kill' bit with the sword play?
Or maybe he was indicating God was doing the 'die by the sword' part.... and we know he wouldn't make mistakes like killing innocents so it must mean something a bit different.
It wouldn't surprise me to find out that the entire Intelligence Committee 6000 odd page report dwells on the actions stemming from not only the torture bits but also the cover up attempts (tape destruction) as well as to where and who the strings were attached.
IF that is true then it is...
Seems consistent to me.... Consider:
In the new testament benevolent Jesus introduced us to Hell.... A place with internet speeds of 2mb per hour or some such for eternity... versus simply dying and staying dead for eternity. Remember you were commanded to have free will so that you can be...
I recall back a bit... maybe '05 or so when all the torture stuff came out... I recall saying then that I couldn't reconcile if I could torture to gain info which could save a thousand Americans. I'd hope I could if it really occurred with me in the loop but as I sit here today I still can't say...
I guess I'll have to revisit the underlying bits but I am aware of the court rationalizations on the non bolden parts of your post.
I don't know what is in the emails... or I should say... I've not read them nor the context they are in so I could agree with you if they support what you use...
Oh... well, your #194 quoted it.
I, in the subsequent post, was answering your query about what law was violated, if any.
No biggie.... it was a statement of the obvious.
Yeah... I agree..
Someone unintended may get hurt in this fiasco. Folks will point to some greater good that was in jeopardy... (Feinstein and her 4th). But someone will get hurt and that is what makes me want finding some other way to empower the Spooks while insuring they play according to...
I think of my time at St. John's and St. Peters and wonder if the bible I read there has the same context some folks read elsewhere.
BTW, do you apply the same certainty to my being Moonbeam as you do the biblical bits you interpret?
One of the bits it is said Moses gave the folks was to not bear false witness... OF all the bits he gave that one is the strongest, in my opinion. We rationalize away all the rest but it is nearly impossible to do that with that one. But, then again in a secular society Moses don't carry sway...
I can't help applying my bias to these issues and so I do... If I were a Christian I'd wonder what would Jesus say.
He'd probably say that humans will always be humans and that perfection is not an evolutionary effect. As he twittled some sand in his fingers he'd probably look out at the...
You speak to costs... OK... It costs more to deal with a Death Penalty case than 60 years in prison... but the point is killing an innocent person ought relegate that penalty to the dung heap.
To say.. 'Ah well... mistakes happen' is or ought to be considered Un Constitutional. It deprives...
