I'm definitely not one of those claiming that it's all his fault or we should trade him or anything; he's certainly carried the Habs this far. Big short handed momentum changing goal like that though ... it's tough.

What the hell Halak? WHY? Jesus, fuck-my-ass Christ. That's probably the end right there.

As a New Jerseyan, I don't mind the New York accent, because I live in the part of New Jersey that has touches of it, so I have a little bit myself. What does bother me is the Staten Island/Long Island accent. That's almost as bad as the Newfie accent, which is the worst damn thing in the world/ Fi...

As one top U.S. official said: "The more Afghanistan can look like Colombia, the better."

BWA HA HA HA

You just can't make this shit up.

Quibble: Stoke's theorem is the one with the line integral around a closed loop being the surface integral of the curl. I think the applicable theorem in this case is just called the fundamental theorem for line integrals. In my understanding, when it's presented in higher generality, Stokes' theor...

In the vein of British people doing British things in dusty places, A Bridge too Far is an excellent film full of British people doing British things in damp places (Holland).

The man who would be king

Sean Connery and Michael Caine go off to Asscrackistan and make themselves kings. Bloody fantastic movie.

In my second year of a B.Sc. in Physics so multivariable calculus, ODE etc.

Ah McCain. "Brave young democracy" I love how Georgia is one of these, but Russia just has sinister "rulers" Yeah. Russia's rulers are jackasses. But they're elected jackasses. Just like Georgia's, just like you might end up being. The hypocrisy goes back at least as far as the ...

So being apposed to torture is a far-left position now?

Fuck off. The Russians are not invading anyone--they are coming to the aide of the independent state of South Ossetia, most of whose population is of Russian citizenship, and which is being occupied by the support of the American Imperialists and their anti-Slav sentiments. Word it how you like. Ru...

Rather than type up my lost post all over again, I will just say that on the Ossetia situation i essentially agree with PeZook. Regarding Chechnya, I am certainly not claiming that the Chechens are squeaky clean or anything of that nature. They have repeatedly bombed civilians, kidnapped people etc....

Wrong analogy. If Mexican immigrants in America call for their part of the country to be put back in Mexico, and if the Mexican government had "peacekeepers" there, and then the Americans responds by bombing the ever-living hell out of the place - then, yes, Mexico should respond. I wasn'...

No, if Russian citizens are being killed, then Russia will fight to protect them, as any nation should. So if Americans in Mexico take up arms against the government, you support the right of Mexico to bomb cities in the U.S.? Recall that South Ossetia is part of Georgia, the majority of Russians c...

Remember, if an ethnic group wants to split from its country, Russia will fight to support its right to do so!


Except Chechnya.

Proscription is when you nail a list of people up in the forum and proclaim it legal to kill them and bring their head in for a reward. For declaring a tyrants acts null and void, they have to be declared: ... a tyrant ba dum kish . By the time of the Republic tyrant has acquired its present day neg...

Uh ... duh? Synchrotron?

Synchrotron ahoy!
