If I did my math right, that's just $4.36 an hour. Currently, it's illegal to work for that but if we allowed people to choose to take a job for $4.36 then homelessness would decrease in half (from 30% to 12 %).
I have two problems with this.One is that it's not just that they call it a dwarf planet. That would be fine. There are rocky planets and gas giants. No big deal also calling some of them dwarf. What bugs me is that they say they are dwarf planets AND that dwarf planets are not real planets. WTF? So are dwarf trees not real trees? Are dwarf horses not real horses? Are Dwarf people not real people? It seems to me that the International Astronomical Union are a bunch of bigots.
The second thing that bugs me is the lame excuse that there are too many dwarf planets. Another WTF. How lazy is the International Astronomical Union? Can you imagine any other profession being that lazy? Can you see botanists saying, "there are just too many trees. We will only name the 9 largest then everything else, screw them." Or doctors saying, "Just too many fu#%ing bones in the human body, We can only learn 10 or maybe 11 and that's it." The International Astronomical Union needs to stop being whiny little babies and learn to count past 8.
I'm no an Anthropologist and I don't play one on TV. But from what I have seen on nature shows it seems like just about all animals have equality issues. Apes have a boss ape and kill other apes' kids. Same kind of thing for lions and tigers. I don't understand how anthropologists can say with any certainty that humans are the one group of animals that don't develop a hierarchy until they figure out how to store grain. Now if the story was - we have had equality issues for 1 million years and it got way worse when we figured out how to store grain... OK, that I can buy.
"Some of Europe’s Oldest-Known Modern Humans Are Distantly Related to Native Americans" Silly headline. Could just as easily say, "Any random human discovered to be distantly related to any other human in all of history... or a squirrel or any other animal. We all share the same DNA. M\A better title would be "Some of Europe’s Oldest-Known Modern Humans have a Surprising Link to Native Americans" Just my two cents.
My Nostradamus predictions of upcoming studies: Men more likely to help a woman in need if she has a short skirt Men more likely to help a woman in need if she has a low cut blouse Men more likely to help a woman in need if she has tight jeans
Nope. Too small and right at the top of a flight of stairs! Slip, fall backwards... quick death. Much safer on the other side of the landing. Looking towards the steps and further away from a fall.
This was a terrible article. Nothing suggested in the story had anything to do with gender. "We need more lights" because men see in the dark. "Pairs need free toilets" because men don't pee.
I worked at Coca-Cola back in the ‘90s when they tried to create OK soda. Supposedly Coke was the world’s most recognized word. Every country and almost 100% of the world new the word Coke. The second most recognized word was OK. The company decided that they wanted to capitalize on this built in recognition and they created the new product. To me it tasted like flat ginger ale. I did not like it. But I was told that I was not the target market. I was told that it was good that I did not like it because that proved that Generation X and Generation Y would love it… or something like that. I do remember loving the cans, they were very cool, but the drink was lame and it ended up failing.
That is just mean. A person has a beautiful house on the beach. Everything is destroyed by a volcano. That’s bad enough, and then the State comes in and tells them, “By the way you no longer have an ocean view, go fu#k yourself.”
