Coachable strong winger plus teddy is a chance I like. Mispronouncing your own last name? That's just bad form. -
it can't be this one. Fight was at 19:06 of the third and May got a misconduct.

This story is amazing. Not just Sabrespace amazing, all time hockey amazing. I'm trying to find the video. And chance it wasn't the whalers?

Awesome story. When I first read the title of the thread, I thought this was going to be like that part of Craigslist that they shut down...

FWIW, I just did a quick graph of Shots/minute played and shut-outs per game started, and the correlation is ridiculously strong if you remove 2 outliers (Scrivens and Crawford)

pinko.

I think it reads quite literally. Business leaders who knowingly broke the law, take salaries and compensation disproportionate to their value add essentially through the shadow theater that is many corporate boards and shareholder votes and knowingly use illegal means to hide much of their income from taxing authorities. These people (a) exist, (b) have processed billions this way, and © largely are not punished with the prison time that is allowable and appropriate at sentencing. I understand it's not everyone, but there are enough for it to be a problem. But DAs and AGs are elected, and money wins elections.

Re-animate the corps of herb brooks and let a combined Hockey East-Big 10 all star team take it too 'em.

The constitution does envision capitalism, but it also created and empowered the federal government as an incredibly powerful trade regulating and taxing body. Which is at odds with capitalism. The first real test of federal power involved the alpha founding father crushing a group demanding more free capitalism. The Constitution was not written by modern pragmatic Kaynesian social liberals, but if it were, the only difference would have been immediate incorporation of the 16th amendment.

It will be another 20 years before a canadian team wins the stanley cup.

sadface.

It only appears that way because we Americans chose not to attend these games as spectators. If we were there in numbers, it'd be like old times.

Prisoner healthcare is already on the taxpayer doll. This moves it from the county to the state and federal $. I'm not sure what you're getting at.

Article says about half, which is different than all caps "every inmate". These are only inmates who are in jail and have not been convicted and sentenced yet. The law specifically prohibits inclusion of people incarcerated in public institutions except those who's cases are pending disposition. It's the whole innocent until proven guilty thing.

Just like your music, living at least 4 years in the past... And your debt to GDP is higher.

We have a lot to do, producing half the worlds GDP, inventing all of the things, producing all of the movies, etc. We only have time to notice the important things.

It should be noted that VW approves of the union and did not exercise their legal right to oppose the certification vote. today, word out of VW was that the home union was less than impressed by the actions of Tennessee GOP and will likely attempt to block any future VW expansion in the South. Talk about backfire.

I guess I would break it down like this: That Jesus existed 2000 years ago is an observable fact. That Jesus was god is something for which there can be no observable evidence. So we could theoretically show his existence with science. We can only show his divinity with faith. Miracles are anecdotes, not scientific style evidence. I think there is often confusion about the difference (not implying that to you, just more generally)

my $0.02: Getting outside the battle of vocabulary and definitions a bit, I don't think science and religion are mutually exclusive, as long as science sticks to trying to understand and discover that for which there can be observable experiential data. This doesn't mean we have to have the data. The Higgs Boson was science, long before there was an observation. But we know that if it existed, there would be an observable effect if we had the right technology to observe it. Fast Forward to 2012, we have the technology and we make the observation. God is different than that. Religion and the supernatural exist such that there can be no observable evidence. To dismiss or believe must be based on something else. But Science can no sooner prove Gods non-existence than its existence. If science sticks to science, it really has no interest in the existence of god. Religion, however, must do the same. Religion that claims certainty from faith on issues that can be observed inevitably intersects with science and loses. Heliocentricity, evolution, even things as simple as the water cycle. These are all natural things religions once made the mistake attempting to define in the realm of the supernatural.

Not everyone, I've been with the same gal since we were 15. So I don't really know how this feels. I also have no comparisons, I may be in the worst relationship ever, I have no idea.
