When you look at countries that are unified and act as a cohesive state such as Switzerland, Korea, Norway, or Singapore, what they have in common is culture. Los Angeles is nothing like Wichita. Beverly Hills is nothing like Miami. Multicu

There are artist all over instagram that can do anatomy better than Michelangelo. In fact Michelangelo never painted a portrait because he couldn't do it. Leonardo could but Leonardo could not sculpt.

Yes, he did. The NREFs page was an Overview, which contained links to a lecture, background on the study, and and about thirty bibliography links. I suggest his opinions, at the very least, have asterisks and links to specific study as to h

I read the article, and looked at his bio. He is not a nuclear scientist nor a analytics professional. His previous articles are pro nuke, which is fine, but to take his words wholesale with no bibliography or links is asking too much for t

Freezer: 8-cubit feet of space totally full! If you keep the door shut and don't open it the food will last about 12-hours. This happened to me this week. Use dry ice to keep the food fresh. Dry ice costs $1.00 a pound, you need 25 pou

I voted you up, thank you for the reply. All his "jokes" about running for multiple terms and the pinned tweets suggest me a sloppy "Reichstag moment" as a "plan B."

I am cynical enough to believe it's a loophole to keep overachieving Asians or Indians from owning a rightful slot instead of a son or daughter of a wealthy donor, politician, or celebrity.

Despite longstanding illegalities of trying to bully social networks, Trump's executive order to kill Twitter's fact-checking will probably be waged through the FCC. I suspect he'll grant new draconian powers with NO congress
