YEMnyiDKUJI#! Yeah, kinda sinks that pro-choice argument that "everyone agrees abortion is a bad thing but it has to be legal to protect women from dying on the streets". There are indeed some sick twisted ****s that celebrate the death of the unborn. The Center for Reproductive Rights wants...

Summary: a moron in NYC that aspired to be an al-Qaeda terrorist was sold fake bomb parts by undercover FBI agents and then arrested him after he tried to use it. So there was no terrorist plan, there was no bomb, there was no threat, there was no fanatic Muslim sleeper cell. There was, however...

I suppose that I should call this some sort of informal mini-article. Since this subject comes up somewhat frequently, I thought a short thread that talks about a revolution in medieval historiography that killed "feudalism" as a blanket term would be lovely. Still to this day you're likely to...

Source Possibly a sign of a shift in public morality in the PRC, or discontent with the population control through child execution?

There's something called the Stigler diet which served as the impetus for linear programming. The basic question was: given the retail prices for 77 different cheap foods, and a handful of nutritional needs, what was the cheapest diet that somebody could live off of? Although the standard...

This is going to be something like a journal I suppose. Everything here are just random issues that I have devoted a lot of thought to. I don't have time to get into a lengthy debate about anything in this so I likely won't respond to anything that requires a detailed elucidation, though I will...

I thought I'd make a thread devoted solely for people who play SC2 competitively. My username is LightSpectra (cc 504), I play on the North American server as protoss. I like watching professional gamers more than playing, though. If I ever make it in Master's, I might start streaming games or...

In history, what large regions had an essentially vegetarian diet due to the unavailability, cost or otherwise inedibility of meat and fish? I'm not talking about a minority of people; I mean, that the traditional cuisine of that region was overwhelmingly vegetarian. I know that certain cultural...

[Author's note: I wrote this essay in about two hours. Please forgive its brevity, any stylistic or grammatical errors, as well as its somewhat illogical organization. I wanted to get everything in my head on paper as fast as I could. I also feel it is a bit incomplete; I may write a second part...

Now, hear me out. Bugs Bunny is a kidnapped teenager that the CIA experimented genetic splicing on; "Project Loony", lead by the mad scientist Dr. Wile E. Coyote of the ACME division. Bugs escapes, to which the CIA dispatches their scarred assassin Elmer Fudd to cover up their immoral secrets...

This is an amateur psychological horror-thriller like Blair Witch Project, but it's infinitely more terrifying, especially around the entries in the 20s. It takes a little bit to get into but I strongly recommend it: Wmhfn3mgWUI

My favorites are the 2007 remake of 3:10 to Yuma, High Noon, A Fistful of Dollars and Pale Rider. in before somebody says Wild Wild West

I apologize for not being able to describe this in more scientifically rigorous terms; but when I wake up in the morning in a dark room, and go to my bathroom with bright florescent lights, I experience this odd phenomenon. When I open my eyes very brightly, I can see the brightness of the room...

Stuff with slide guitars, harmonicas and violins (same instrumentation as gypsy jazz, but more of an American western feel). Don't really know the name of the genre or anything beyond composers for shows/games I like. _1sjAmHoasc HMxUwTyz0hM qD93x_qHpSg

Current Release Date: NA August 23, 2011 Link to Wikipedia Having my heart broken by Empire: Total War and then again recently by Dragon Age 2, I now have no faith whatsoever in the ability to make good sequels or accurate previews. Nevertheless, I have a quiet optimism about the third...

From Europa Barbarorum:

St. Thomas More’s Utopia and its Implicit Criticisms of Renaissance Values by LightSpectra “[W]e made no inquiries [to Raphael Hythloday] after monsters, than which nothing is more common; for everywhere one may hear of ravenous dogs and wolves, and cruel men-eaters, but it is not so easy to...
