Only a real dumb ass would ask for examples. Grindhouse, Kill Bill, Mr & Mrs Smith, numerous other movies and TV shows. And how did this thread shift toward child labor laws? man, some people are just consumed by their loserdom.

Good points here too. I hate those damn video games. When I was a kid we used to go outside to play. We used to use our imagination and make stuff and examine our world. And we learned how to relate to other people socially and about life as we lived it. Now, kids just sit inside by...

Brilliant as usual. Where do you think we learn how to relate to others on a genuine intimate level as opposed to a non-personal one? I can't think of any place to better learn this than growing up in an intact family. In fact, studies show that younger children from larger families tend to...

There are a lot of ways to manipulate studies, especially when issues are as abstract as happiness. I am aware some studies show that certain European Countries like Denmark (which also has one of the highest suicide rates) report high happiness. But the majority of studies show that the...

Dead wrong. To be sure, there are professors that do not give preference but many do. like I said, I have seen it with my own eyes. Do they have official minority grading scales - no. But you have your head up your ass if you don't think minorities get an extra leg up from their ultra...

Am I the only one who has noticed that in movies and on TV women are as strong as men these days? Seems like it is now typical to have women prevail over men in hand to hand combat. One might get the impression that Hollywood is trying to subtly influence how we perceive the differences...

Are we moving in a good direction or a bad one? I am not referring to the current political or economic climate or standard of living. I am referring to the general direction we as a society, as a culture and as individuals, are headed. I for one feel we are headed in a bad direction. I...

The answer lies in a basic understanding of Islam. Islam is fully fundamentalist faith. Fundamentalism is the belief that your religion ought to be the law of the land - it is the polar opposite of separation of Church and state - it is Theocracy in its purest form. To make Islam the law of...

Obviously you did not go to college. Have you heard of the landmark discrimination case against U of M? Colleges absolutely do give prefference to certain minority applicants. In fact, they reserve seats for them. And they do have special class' for minorities designed to inflate their...

That is exactely what it looks like and I used to think they were undiferentiated cells turning into roots. But, this stem is infested heavily and I wrapped the stem with wet paper towel as a rooting experiment and they grew into large white clumps. Powdery mildew sounds like the most likely...

Thanks - after reading your article I am re-thinking things. I wonder if very dry conditions can cause this. My plants are in a light soil less medium and require a good soak pretty much daily. Hopefully soon I will have more biomass and my humidity will increase. Anyway, I guess I'll...

Update. Seems the Dyna-Grow Foliage Pro is a bit to high in N for my strain because the leave tips are starting to curl under - I hear too much N does this. I might try the regular grow formula.

Do you know how many Blacks even graduate from college with advanced degrees? Today, more and more are and affirmative action plays a large roll - I know because I went to school with them. But these guys are in their 40s and 50s. How many Blacks do you honestly think received advanced...

7X, you make some great points. Many people like to say that those who recognize the violence in Islam don't have any real knowledge of Islam. The opposite is true. People who believe that Islam is fundamentally no different from all other religions are the ones who have no knowledge of...

Pythium is an opportunistic pathogen. That means it attacks weak plants. You can take clones which can overcome the problem but it can be difficult due to the susceptible nature of the new root growth. I started another thread on here somewhere - I will summarize. First, clone in cool, well...

Perhaps you have noticed I seldom respond to your posts. That is because I have yet to hear you say anything worth responding to. Your posts are perfect examples of random thread noise. At least you have a distinctive enough avatar for me to put you in the "another blah, blah, blah, hot air...

Blacks make up 12% of the population. If we look at Blacks who have advanced degrees and have achieved a level of success commensurate with being appointed to high level Government positions that percentage drops radically. I'd guess they would be <1% compared to their white counterparts...

I have a plant with what appears to be a type of mold on the stem. What ever it is, it looks like some form of polyps or little mounds of powder. I know it is some sort of mold or fungus because my experiment involving on plant cloning via wrapping stems with wet medium made them grow like...

Sometimes I wonder why I bother to even try starting an intelligent thread when I already know that you guys won't respond similarly. You prove this every chance you get. Anyway, here is JFK's inaugural address. If he were alive today, he would be considered a far right candidate - that is how...

What Democrats are learning (sorry for the oxymoron), is that their lofty ideas just don't work where the rubber meets the road. Obama was and is far to inexperienced to be President. He rushed in with his lofty ideas only to be bitch slapped by reality. Unlike more experienced Democrat...
