Ethical Concern: The GMO corn is trademarked by <insert well known chemical company here> and the seed is sold to farmers who invest in it. Corn propagates by wind, neighbor farmer did not buy in but now his seed stock is infiltrated and the trademark owners sue him for stealing seed stock or some other violation of copyright. Local farmer caves to relentless legal pressure, soon all food stock is owned by corporations. This could get really wild (The Windup Girl), but so far that's still sci-fi, right?

Environmental Concern: Most GMO crops are created by chemical companies who in turn make products effective on plants that were not created by them. Rather than taking time to work with the environment these companies amass petrochemical sprays (a further economical cost to the farmer as well) and bombard regions so their plant survives. This chemical mixture goes into the soil and water where it in turn effects us; you do know that ALL drinking water is recycled I hope.


So you might be right, there might not be concerns on the healthy diet level (though we all know how wonderful the American diet is for us all). But there are larger socioeconomic issues here as well. To lock this only on a healthy for diet issue is absurd. I highly recommend Botany of Desire (book or PBS) as the potato chapter is enlightening on this measure (from an economic standpoint). Basically; organic food is far more economic in terms of space, maintenance, and profit per square foot.

Well, we're still really new to the game.. we only started playing in August. However, if you want to get a good idea of what gameplay is like and/or how to build a character, check out these links:

I think you might like the book Streetfight. It was a huge inspiration for this video. It's by Janette Sadik-Khan and it's about how she transformed Times Square (and many others) in NYC from car-centric to people-centric. It's an amazing story of her battling NIMBYs and state DOTs and taxi companies and the media. And she did it the way I'm proposing: putting up some cones and seeing how people like it.

Best Option

Second Best Option

I used the second one for a long time. I've gone through probably 5-6 of those. Picked up the first one a few years ago and I like it much better.

They're also wireless and don't need batteries.

Turns out that this guy has a spiritual side, too, and he also published a book that got great reviews.

A friend of mine, a psychologist, grabbed me one day and talked for a couple of hours about how wonderful this book is. Come to think of it, I promised to read it but never did.. maybe I should.

Worth noting that there are lots of examples of urban planning strategies where density was increased without increasing traffic - including one from the Denver Metro area! Belmar tripled its density without worsening traffic or widening roads. There's a whole chapter about it in this book, but unless you're a very boring person like me, I probably wouldn't recommend reading it :)

shit if we're going to be recommending books, i suggest this one: The Power of Self Coaching. I had to stand up to go to my bookshelf to get the correct title, thats how much i care haha!

It's a really good read... not saying it will cure what ails you, but might as well try that before spending money on a psych.

Nope, had some anxiety (because of heart palpitations) and doctor suggested talking to a psychologist and oh hey we have one right here. Garden variety behavioral therapy.

No one mentioned it was $1000 an hour until I got a bill 2 months later.

The only memorable thing I got out of it was a recommendation for a book: https://www.amazon.com/Feeling-Good-New-Mood-Therapy/dp/0380810336 which appears to be the beginner's guide to do-it-yourself cognitive behavior therapy.

You've not been here long I take it. Andrew Romanoff was the youngest Speaker of the House in our history. He was term limited & he is well liked and respected.

Take some time to get to know him, he's more qualified for the position than everyone else combined. He earned a bachelor's degree from Yale University, took time off from Yale to work at the Southern Poverty Law Center, where he researched the Ku Klux Klan. He also worked at the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination and taught English in Nicaragua and Costa Rica. During his time in Nicaragua, his political philosophy was shaped by reading A Theory of Justice by liberal philosopher John Rawls.

Then he earned a Master's degree in public policy from John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. Prior to earning a law degree from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law, Romanoff worked for Democratic Congressman David Skaggs.

I got Going Solo in the Kitchen years ago. It's a great guide to cooking and meal planning for one or two people. It really helped me cut down on costs.

One of your above links also cites https://www.amazon.com/Image-Guide-Pseudo-Events-America/dp/0679741801

which was published in 1962 ..... Almost 60 years ago, and yet here we are, driving headlong further down that rabbit hole.

Do we learn nothing? *smh*

Studies have actually shown that waiting to merge until the last minute optimizes usage of the road. Leaving the lane empty for a quarter mile before it ends is just wasted asphalt. Source: http://www.amazon.com/Traffic-Drive-What-Says-About/dp/0307264785

That said, I generally merge early since it is considered polite.

I forgot that Earth has gotten progressively more violent since the creation of the gun. OH WAIT, that's not true at all and currently, the world is more peaceful than it's ever been. Here's a book on it.

How so? Have we not had notable fake hate crimes of late? Does Jussie Smollett not ring a bell? I'm not saying there is no racism or racist's KKK white nationalist ubar nazis out there. Hell there is even a hand book on doing such a thing as this, so unless I see video of a nazi placing the sicker there I'm on the fence. What I can say is who ever did it is an ass hole either way.
