what does "any one can time 100 mph if they see it enough" mean?

I liked young liars ep a lot but dear science is trash.

Well this thread is clearly over my head.

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Dec 17, 2008 -> 10:00 PM) tell me about MGMT? Should I tune back into TV On The Radio? - few good songs -NO NO NO NO. I tell you the only reason they are getting these high rankings on year end lists is it makes lost-touch publications like Spin and Rolling Stone feel experimental all the while supporting a band that is entirely marketed on a major label. That album was awful.

QUOTE (Texsox @ Dec 17, 2008 -> 03:24 PM) That was Psy or English, I decided English. From what I can tell, at least here (UG not Grad for me) there are no TA or RA positions until you have 18 hours. So the classroom route gets you paid quicker than the thesis route. It also seems our library is not well known for resources, like at a major University, so that may, or may not, be an additional hurdle. So most of the research would be internet based or inter library. Plus the no thesis route does seem easier. Just show up and do what you are told. As far as what PhD programs are looking for, I've received mixed advice. Some believe it is good experience prior to their dissertation, others believe it doesn't make a difference. I'm guessing they probably preferred the route they took. I also receive mixed advice on going directly to a PhD program or doing it in two steps. Looking at the credentials of many of the professors here, and at the colleges I've narrowed my search too, it seems most stayed at one University for two degrees. Either B.A. and M.A. the PhD somewhere else. Or B.A. and then M.A. and PhD somewhere else. Only a few have three different listed. Until I select one, and see the library, the decision is tough. The research is the key and if they happened to have 100 feet of letters and journals from an author I'd want to research, that would be one thing, if I was stuck with someone or some genre I'm not passionate about, that would be a long and sucky project. Afterwards? Teaching probably. Hence the eventual need for a PhD. What are you studying? I would go the thesis route, just because I would find it satisfying to be published and have a tangible item to look back upon my education.

but of course at the time it was put out by I think Balta that polling places found democrats had the possibility of flipping CO, NV, NC and VA, that was back in March. At no point did John McCain seem like this invincible candidate that could not be tied to the president with 26% approvals. McCain only had a lead in his convention bounce. So the assertion in this article that a McCain win was likely, is more laughable here now that Obama won in a landslide, but also was highly questionable back then. the democrats were polling better with virtually every demo. than in 04.

Just the premise that the electoral map is set, and the only way to flip a state is to have candidates from that state on the ticket is just so silly and completely ignorant of demographic changes that were influential in places like Virginia.

Pulitzer. Be it through a literary work or journalistic one, go hard or go home I guess.

Convicted of attempted shoe-facing.

Why would someone who has absolutely no credibilty or experience in the subject be a more influential voice than an american who tastes hundreds of burgers? What are they trying to say? Oh, the problem is you all know what a burger is and have comparisons to know ours tastes like s***! If you knew nothing you would prefer us!

did you see his interview on Maddow? It was pretty wonderful.

that's a relief.

If we get 10 wins out of CR that would be a good sign next year. I would not throw a shoe at him.

I like Richard's make up. I hope he finds success in this league, or else we're kind of screwed too I guess.

Yeah just...why a shoe? I hate to bring in a terrible austin powers joke, but who throws a shoe?

permanent majority.

hairston is awful.

I'll take Ye's simple rhymes that are terse and memorable over talib kweli or mos def any day. Just because they act like they are smarter doesn't mean they are.
