If you think that it was politically decided before the operation began that he would be assassinated, that's a different issue entirely. I'm not going to speculate on that because there isn't any way we can know for sure bec

If you go to the main paper page, you can filter for small notebooks (a5-a8) and for unlined (blank). Here's a link to them. http://www.gouletpens.com/Shop_All_Notebooks_s/890.htm?searc...

He's probably considering the fact that there are other high-end notebooks that cost the same or less, filled with paper of a much higher quality. Keep in mind that a person's personal preference will play a large role in how that

Not all fountain pen ink is the same. Yours probably dries faster. I'm a left-handed fountain pen user, and there's a lot of really nice ink that I can't use because it doesn't dry fast enough to keep from smearing it al

Some people like larger notebooks. When you can get a full-sized notebook for .15 at Wal-mart, 20 bucks for an A4 Moleskin sets the expectations pretty high. I'm not above spending 20 bucks on a notebook, I just think Moleskin's p

Once again you are ignoring every word of what I wrote. You quoted me, but neither of the responses had much to do with what I said. They were just a reiteration of your previous statements. We weren't talking about the legitimacy of o

You're not missing anything. They are overpriced, and the quality isn't anywhere near what they used to be. Moleskins are trendy, that is all. That being said, to an extent the suitability of the paper you are using depends largel

You're pretty much ignoring what I said. You are talking about a conflict that represents one of the unconventional parts of the largest conventional war ever. In contrast to this, the entire war on terror is an unconventional war foug

Almost all politicians are carbon copies of one another. Until we vote out every single incumbent, and refuse to replace them with like-minded cronies, we can expect more of the same.

I agree that we should start taking our values to heart, but its ridiculous to act as if the situations are remotely comparable. First of all, if Himmler and Goebbels were hell bent on fighting to the death, they almost certainly would have

The war on terror isn't unique because it was the first war that involved an insurgency/guerrilla forces, because it wasn't. What I'm saying is that during this conflict, pretty much the entire thing has been unconventio

Just to elaborate on this, conscientious objector status won't always disqualify one from military service. In past scenarios where people were drafted, conscientious objectors were often given non-combat related jobs. On today's

You must be exceptionally lucky. In most cases they will ruin your life before they give you conscientious objector status.

The point isn't whether its easier or harder to deface a website. The point is that a public facing website is a more or less static advertisement for an organization (like a poster), thus taking it or even the server that hosts it dow

So what part about the rMBP upgrade was fantastic? The part where they reduced the amount of RAM, or the part where they used Iris/Iris Pro graphics like every other PC manufacturer is going to be doing pretty soon? When Intel releases
