well if your jurisdiction has water rights and you don't own them, then you can't very well use that water then. Pretty simple. I own the water rights to my property, so I can do as I please. My uncle sold the natural gas rights under his farm, so he no longer has any rights to that even on his own property (because the natural gas is no longer his property). If this is simply an issue of buying the water rights, as expensive as they may be, then it's really no issue, is it?

in general this would neither be genetic nor environmental, but has to do with vagaries in the development of the fetus. When these kinds of issues are serious, the mother has a miscarriage. In non-serious cases like the above, the baby survives. Do not make this a bigger deal than it is, and support children who may look different than you.

You could switch 'mathematicians' and 'engineers' and the joke still makes sense. There is nothing pointing out how the mathematicians are superior based on something that differentiates the two groups. While it may be considered cute, it is also lame, even by nerd joke standards.

I think this proves that a real idiot can still teach and the next time one of my son's teachers pulls the "I'm a teacher" thing, I'm going to point to this dork as an example of why we shouldn't respect teachers in 2008.

Wow.

I am seriously conflicted.

Why should a human have the job cleaning a street instead of a street sweeper like in the USA?

At the rate this guy is going he's never going to get any work done and they will have to hire 3 guys like him to do one robot's work. You know... I don't think he's actually doing his job.

But it's a nice video. I'm sure he's a great guy. He may even be happier and better for society than a drone operating the street sweeper, but the question n my mind is what are their tax dollars paying him to do? It's not clear to me.

I went to a local high school where the cool kids worked on the newspaper and took AP classes. The not-quite-as-cool kids were jocks and the uncool kids flaked out and smoked behind the school. In that environment people of all races flourished because intellectualism was what people aspired to.

That said, I pulled my son from his elementary school and moved him to a different one because there really are cultural differences associated with wanting to achieve education or acknowledging or accepting what education is.

One example of this was that I spoke to a neighbor about 4 years ago where I said my dream was always to buy a house, fix it up, and rent it out and she blurted out, "You want to be a landlord? What and rip people off for doing nothing?" So I knew that culturally she was teaching her kids that being a landlord was bad or evil.

What I think would be more interesting is to compare the experiences between Cuban and Puerto Rican families where the local Cuban families are highly successful and Puerto Rican families are viewed as less-successful.

It's a fun image.

It is curious the offense that it draws however, considering the modern depiction of Jesus is no doubt completely erroneous. Jesus was a Middle Eastern man. He was not European as he is commonly portrayed. That means chances are he had dark curly hair, dark skin, perhaps a larger nose, among what ever other features he claimed. The portrayal seen today became widely accepted during the rennaisance thanks to European painters.

It reminds me of the Bible's take on false idols... And I wonder if this counts as a "false idol." It is a depiction of some man, yes, but it is not Jesus. So who here would be the blasphemer?

Of course, it seems to me that the whole concept is based around the idea that a Christian should focus more on The Word rather than The Image.

One more thing, and I'm just throwing this out there, "Judge not, lest ye be judged."

This is a great piece. The artist shows a lot of technical prowess and a dark satirical wit.

Kudos.
