It should become Seattle's first private pot smoking cinema club.

A program aimed at preventing terrorist acts performed by organized groups of foreign nationals did nothing to help prevent something pulled off by unorganized individuals one of whom was an American citizen. Similarly Forecasting for hurricanes doesn't help us predict tornadoes. Ergo hurricane forecasting is stupid?

Jun 7 kinaidos commented on What's With All Those Tech Companies Denying Knowledge of PRISM?.

Would simply using a proxy to get through the perimeter firewall not count as "not direct access". It seems like there are any number of similarly trivial senses of "not direct". If it were true the more meaningful claim would be "Our lawyers told us what we had to give them by law, and we gave them just that and no more." That they aren't saying something like that makes me think they opened the spigots because it was the lowest cost solution.

I think that's pretty close to the original choreography except that the girls were 14.

If we can't afford to fund what we need, then why not a decent 80% solution. If loads like this one are what render our bridges functionally obsolete, then there's a very very simple solution. Don't allow them on the roads. Let those who require expensive new things lobby for them or pay for them. Why are we even talking about subsidizing very small niche industries by providing public subsidies in the form of big expensive bridges?

There are crazy people at Vita who don't seem to pay for anything. It's one of those place where one can truly celebrate, at times, the cornucopia of dementia that is the newly minted DSM V. Of course this comes with a cost. We heartily salute your personal sacrifice to diversity. Let Ansel be our official Capitol Hill martyr this memorial day!

Dentistry, surgery, artificial lighting, vaccinations, efficient medications, motorized transportation, and molecular gastronomy vs religious wars, child rape, and prohibition. If the latter is the truth, it's very very strange sense of truth.
