    Undergrad Is the Notion of Public Space a Myth?

    I agree somewhat but had they better organization along with a more clear and concise argument of exactly what they felt needed to be changed (so we would all know) would you be more willing or able to tolerate their actions? Of course I don't mean anyone should have to tolerate public...

    Undergrad Is the Notion of Public Space a Myth?

    There should NEVER be a dollar amount attached to exercising your rights because then it becomes a privilege the government affords you like getting a drivers, hunting or fishing permit in that by their hand they PERMIT.you.to.do.this. Spin it anyway you feel as far as saying that the money...

    BBT's Portrayal of Nerds: Offensive or Accurate?

    On TBS starting at 2000 there's two hours of TBBT... switch channels at 2200 and get another half hour before the Simpson's ruin my geek buzz. Who would have thought that giant ants rank 5th behind hover boards for coolest modes of transportation?

    In your opinion what are the most elegant physical processes?

    My personal favorites are estuarine wetlands. I wanted Marine Biology after I first saw a grainy video of pro, meta, ana, and telephase. ...but the economic draft of the mid-80' made me choose being a Marine instead. At least I was always near the ocean.

    Spend Your Ideal Weekend With Family

    Hour and a half maybe two of Aikido on Saturday morning followed by a lengthy spell in a jacuzzi with treats, some Cabrito with rice, beans, and tortillas followed by a nap in arctic temp air conditioning (you listening Evo?). Just about any movie at Alamo Drafthouse as long as it includes their...

    Lingusitics Where to Find Quality Open Source Learning Resources for French and Russian?

    FSI = Foreign Service Institute. Used to teach State Dept. and other Government employees before/during overseas assignments. Now I believe they use Rosetta Stone. Not 100% sure on that though because I've been a civilian so long.

    Lingusitics Where to Find Quality Open Source Learning Resources for French and Russian?

    I found this Annenberg Foundation site after seeing their advert on our local public broadcasting station for the n'th time. You will have to allow pop-ups to view their videos. http://www.learner.org/index.html#"

    Medical Can sunlight trigger urushiol rash recurrence after a year?

    I used the walgreens generic version of Zanfel. Almost $30.00 for a tube the size of my index finger. This stuff is a miracle drug as far as I'm concerned and worth every penny. Squeeze a small bit on your hand, dampen, make a paste, scrub the infected area until the itching stops which will...

    Medical Can sunlight trigger urushiol rash recurrence after a year?

    I've never thought that it could reappear either which is why I posted my question about its longevity and photo-induced reoccurrence. When I returned from helping build the cob house the shirts I wore were thrown away along with all the tenugui I used for sweat bands that week because I know...

    Medical Can sunlight trigger urushiol rash recurrence after a year?

    How would/could direct sunlight cause a reocurrence of an urushiol-type rash almost a year after first notice? Does it attach to certain types of cells and remain in the lymphatic system permanently?

    How do you measure your self-worth?

    Well said. I would like to add that if you feel the need to measure your own value it has already decreased.

    Teeter Hang Ups - Inversion Therapy

    I own a Teeter and you would have to pry it from my cold, dead, hands. My most anticipated minute of the day is when I just lay horizontal on my table before I start to invert. After a few minutes of relaxing I just move my hands from my center to my chest and that is far enough for me. I'll...

    High School Uranus' satellite Miranda question

    Wow, wow, and wow! I was looking at this: http://ciclops.org//view_media.php?id=18185" and was amazed my the funky striations or flow patterns or whatever they are called. How is it that the marks become curved and square shaped? I love these photos!
