Anything for the children!Quote:
Each year 2.5 million children die worldwide because they do not receive life-saving vaccinations at the appropriate time. Now researchers are developing a fingerprint-based recognition method to track vaccination schedules for infants and toddlers, which will increase immunization coverage and save lives. This will also allow the authorities to better track their movements throughout their entire lives without their consent, without having to chip the children like you would a dog or cat.
Am I the only one who thinks that assault policy doesn't belong in a school's hands?

If I were raped, or otherwise the victim of an assault, I'd go to the real cops, not the campus cops.
I don't like the idea that universities, especially publicly-funded ones, have what amounts to their own court system for such things. With the Brendan Gibbons shit (the U-M kicker accused of rape but nothing happened until 4 years later), I don't think the victim should've had a choice of a "campus court" vs. the normal legal system. Either they press charges in the same system of criminal justice everyone else can use, or they don't. Whatever your opinion on the merits of the case, everything that went wrong with the handling of that case started when the victim went to U-M court instead of real court.

And, unless there's some "consent app" where willing partners can constantly acknowledge their consent state as they're fucking...
I can see it now. "Please solve this CAPTCHA to prove that you are not drunk so your consent agreement for this 1 minute allotment of sex can be registered with the authorities."
Here's Rick Snyder's campaign website just before the 2010 election:
http://web.archive.org/web/201010290...n.com/site-map
Nowhere in the site or the PDFs does it talk about:
a) the emergency manager law
b) taxing retirees
c) separating the DNR and DEQ
which were his biggest initiatives right after getting elected. He was way ahead in the polls at the get-go and didn't really have to specify anything to get elected. The only big thing he committed on beforehand that he did right away was repealing the MBT in favor of a flat corporate tax, but he made that sound like something that would be done without raising taxes, simply by cutting spending on some initiatives (the film subsidies were the particular hot button of the day).
Am I totally weird for liking to check out how politicians actually did on their campaign promises, seeing if they pass the "do what you say you will do" test??
If anything, there is a negative correlation between keeping campaign promises and being judged a success. At least in terms of the presidency.
Positive correlation between our reactions to horrific images and liberal/conservative. I'm just waiting for politicians to hook themselves up to fMRIs...

Stupid political news:

Kids write letter to "Senator", but the Senator's name isn't given, nor is there mention of the fact that there's two U.S. Senators.
If they're writing to their state Senator, shouldn't the fucker's name be given?
And why the fuck should kids be taught to bug politicians with bullshit unofficial holidays?
Really, is that what you want to be teaching kids?
At least if peeps keep these sens busy with silly stuff they won't be doing dangerous things like figurring out ways to take MY MONEY.

Aren't you glad the students is trying? ;)
I wonder how much they had to bribe the Democratic state senator up on felony charges to vote with the Reps on the road funding bill.

The Zehnder family was unavailable for comment.
Milwaukee Police Chief calls it "Black Lies Matter"

He's pretty much full of fail. I can see how Trump has turned him into a pinata.
My guess is Trump will turn a lot of career politicians into a piƱata.
Dow down 1k in just a couple of minutes of open, but bounced back. Now down 550 or so.
Deez Nutz was polling at about 9% in North Carolina. Not bad. He has a large vein of support there.
Biden and Warren meet. No statement from Biden, but Warren did say they had a powwow.
#slapsknee
Bernie Sanders ... "WHAT'S WRONG WITH AMERICA IS GREED. Ok, so now give me 60% of what you earn."
#funnyshit
Elizabeth Warren is 1/32 Cherokee and held the powwow, so keep your 1/32 Cherokee roots out of this. :)
no money = no Joe Biden (or Martin O'Malley or Jim Webb or any other beltway bandits) = no story
Donald Trump is continuing his romancing and foreplay with Megyn "news I can fuck" Kelly. Now THAT's news!
I don't think we've seen the bottom of Mr Dow Jones.

Why does that guy's straw hat have a sun visor?
Just read she's been married 4 times, is that true? lol
At least the 4th time was a charm
That clip from today with Huckabee where she came out on stage to Eye of The Tiger is just about as good as it gets. Even if the guys from Survivor didn't appreciate it, they can all eat dicks!
^ That's what I heard.
