"The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life. Rarely do members of one family grow up under the same roof."

Illusions, my absolute favorite book.

Sure!

5 tablespoons oil

1-2 Onions, minced

8 Cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon coriander

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 teaspoon turmeric

1 finely chopped tomato

2 20 ounce cans of chickpeas

2 teaspoons cumin seeds

2 teaspoons amchoor or anardana powder

1 teaspoon garam masala

1 teaspoon paprika

salt

lemon juice

1 hot chili

2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger

Heat oil in a large pan or wide pot. When hot, add minced onion and garlic. Fry until translucent or medium-brown. Turn heat to medium-low and add coriander, cumin, cayenne, and turmeric; stir, then add tomatoes. Stir until well-mixed, and fry for a few minutes. Add chickpeas, and 1 cup water, stir, then add amchoor/anardana, paprika, garam masala, salt, and lemon juice. Stir it all up, cover, and turn the heat to low so it can simmer for 10-15 minutes. Add minced chili pepper and ginger, and cook for another minute or two, and voila!

Enjoy!

This article gives a good brief history of Hijra. I did a whole term paper on the subject, one of my main sources was this book, if you want a more lengthy historic analysis of LGBT+ culture in India.

It is absolutely true that modern India currently struggles with homophobia and transphobia. But that is largely a result of the laws that were implemented by the British colonizers, and many of those laws stayed on the books after India gained independence.

Let's see...

Tiny SoMo towns...

I'm gonna go with either:

1- Springfieldia
2- Nixa
3- Bransonia
4- Willow Springs
5- West Plains
6- Poplar Bluff
7- Cape

If you aren't around any of those, you are way into the sticks.

Anyhoo, you should totally read some Vance Randolph. He knows the Ozarks far too well. His two best:

So looking for the link, I managed to find this, not all of them, but it seems like some of the new ones have been translated!

This book is really interesting and it brings exactly this subject: https://www.amazon.com/Story-Human-Body-Evolution-Disease/dp/030774180X

Dr. Atul Gawande, who is a surgeon who also writes for the New Yorker, wrote a book called The Checklist Manifesto. It's about how the use of checklists, which are drawn from the aviation community, can do a lot to reduce complications in healthcare. It's an interesting read.

Looks like Otis has finally been replaced.

Failure to reproduce a finding could be for a plethora of reasons, so it's not that simple (and believe me, I wish it was!). If one group cannot reproduce a finding, it doesn't mean that the finding is immediately false and needs to be redacted. There are often technical reasons and experimental details that account for the difference, but it takes some effort from both parties to parse these out. Further, it's still incredibly difficult to get people motivated to take the time to write a manuscript and publish negative data, when they just want to move onto a new project instead.

As far as we're aware, lying and straight up malice are very small contributors to the reproducibility issue. I recommend reading Rigor Mortis to expand on much of this.

>No such book exists.

One of the leading Christian apologists worldwide, Ravi Zacharias, has a book that is specifically intended to be a counterargument to Harris's The End of Faith. It's called [The End of Reason] (http://www.amazon.com/The-End-Reason-Response-Atheists/dp/0310282519) and it's only the most obvious contradiction to your statement. It's short, easy to grasp, and makes one-sided arguments, so I'm sure you'll really like it.

Must have read this story.

Mind your Ps and Qs originates from British pub slang. "Mind your pints and quarts" was the bartender's way of telling patrons to mind their own business and behave. Over the years, it shortened to "mind your Ps and Qs." Came over to America with the colonists.

Here is a real source.

Seriously.

I recommend these two books. really helped me with my management style and allowed me to see problems from different perspective

Asking the right questions:a guide to critical thinking

Agreed. Sources in books and Embassy cables below

• Pakistan: Deep inside the World's Most Frightening State
  
  
• Modern Afghanistan: A History of Struggle and Survival
  
  
• Excerpts from American Embassy Cables to Washington
  
  

There's a story like that in this surgeon's book. A woman refuses treatment for her cancer because it would mean aborting her child. She died shortly after giving birth.

>And as I said, I do not believe 10/15 to be a significant difference in applications to be indicative of racism, particularly when these applications are garbage data flooding a hiring managers desk with identical resumes.

Care to give a quantitative, statistical reason as to why that's not a significant difference? Because otherwise, your notion that it's the result of flooding an employer with identical resumes is bunk. How would that lead to white candidates getting more call-backs?

> If you cannot provide them that's fairly indicative that it is not easily verifiable, no?

Here's a start. Please let me know how each one of these fails to meet your exacting standards:

The Mark of a Criminal Record

Discrimination in a Low-Wage Labor Market

Sequencing Disadvantage: Barriers to Employment Facing Young Black and White Men with Criminal Records

Race at Work: Realities of Race and Criminal Record in the NYC Job Market (PDF)

Race and the Invisible Hand (book)

[Marked: Race, Crime, and Finding Work in an Era of Mass Incarceration (book)] (https://www.amazon.com/Marked-Race-Crime-Finding-Incarceration/dp/0226644847/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1492906619&sr=8-1&keywords=Marked%3A+Race%2C+Crime%2C+and+Finding+Work+in+an+Era+of+Mass+Incarceration)

That's a bit misleading. There are indeed people born psychopaths based on genes and/or in utero development. I highly recommend Simon Baron-Cohen's book, The Science of Evil on this topic.

Another key factor in this kind of evil is our innate tendency toward in-group and out-group behaviour, something we all seem programmed with, and can be activated by putting people in groups and into conflict with each other. For most of us it is dormant when we tend to identify with each other, instead of "them" as an enemy, and when there's no basis for conflict.

In many ways it is our vile biology. Where the experiences and hatred come into play is typically the activation of that innate "us vs them" tendency. That can easily grow into violence even between otherwise "normal" people with no ultimate problem with "them".
