Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but I want to make sure everyone knows about this offer:
If you are thinking about getting a new cell phone this year (with a new 2 year contract with AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, or T-Mobile), you can get a $50 giftcard if you get it at Best Buy. Just go to the link below and register your phone # and your email address by 2/12/12. Then if you buy a phone at Best Buy before 12/31/12, you will get the $50 giftcard (which can be used towards the purchase of the phone).

and they just expanded their Prime Instant videos.
We just wrapped up another deal — this time bringing in content from MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, TV Land, and VH1 — to add 2,000 new titles to Prime Instant Video. Together with the existing movies and shows from CBS, Fox, Disney-ABC, PBS, NBC, Sony, and Warner Bros., we now offer, at no additional cost, unlimited instant streaming of more than 15,000 titles.
I had not even gotten into that
What’s the deal there?
"I’d love to walk in and hug everybody every day, but that’s not critical to us winning." - Jon Daniels
on Prime video?
If you’re prime member you get free streaming, similar to Netflix, on a lot of movies and TV shows.
That's awesome.
Any idea if that’s included with Amazon Mom? It’s becoming more and more likely that I end up signing up for Prime when this deal runs out.

Yes,
they offer free prime if you sign up for Amazon Mom, but it’s not the full deal. Still, being able to get diapers, wipes, etc, on 2 day notice with free shipping or signing up to have it regularly delivered is awesome.

Another good thing is accounts in the same house share the shipping so you can do your xmas shopping on your own account and not give away the surprise.
@AdamLikesBeer If you are in Minneapolis I can tell you where to get a good brew.
when you get prime buy a Roku XS
you will thank me. You get Netflix, Amazon VOD, Hulu +, Wii like gaming and more for $99

Signing a lease today on a brewery location
I am going to have to pick Whiskey’s brain on where to buy kegs and fermenters when I am down there in April.
@AdamLikesBeer If you are in Minneapolis I can tell you where to get a good brew.
Wait
You’re starting up a brewery, too?
"I’d love to walk in and hug everybody every day, but that’s not critical to us winning." - Jon Daniels
Yeah, we have been planning it for a while but you can't even apply for ATF stuff until you have a space
Nothing the size of DEBC, just 10 BBL to start. Finding a space with gas, water, drainage, dock door and everything under 1,000 is a bitch. Even in a city as historically industrial as Minneapolis.
@AdamLikesBeer If you are in Minneapolis I can tell you where to get a good brew.
Interesting.
Verrry interesting. I am happy for you (and by you, I mean me) and America because yay good, local beer.
What type(s) of beer will you be making?
"I’d love to walk in and hug everybody every day, but that’s not critical to us winning." - Jon Daniels
No one locally makes English style session beers
So we are going to start with that. A northern brown made with Marris Otter and hopped with Fuggles and EKG. And a scotch ale. Everyone else in town falls over themselves to make bigger, hoppier beers. And while I love those, it leaves a big hole in the local beer market.
At least I hope so since I am about to self finance a second job :D
@AdamLikesBeer If you are in Minneapolis I can tell you where to get a good brew.
Nice.
Any idea on the price point that you’ll sell at? I think my biggest complaint with those beers is that they end up being more expensive than their intended purpose suggests they should be…
"I’d love to walk in and hug everybody every day, but that’s not critical to us winning." - Jon Daniels
Just kegs and growlers to start
We don’t have the space for a bottling or canning line. Marris Otter is an expensive ass grain but we would like to keep it to 12$ a growler and then whatever the local bars charge.

Things I watched on Netflix last night:
“Kill the Irishman” – don’t make this mistake. Tries to be a slick gangster movie but is shallow, predictable, clunky, and boring despite all the recognizable faces (D’onofrio, Walken, a very fat Val Kilmer) and potentially cool real-life plot (Irish nobody kills his way to the top of Cleveland’s organized crime scene).
Conan O’Brian’s “The Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television Tour”. Funny and interesting, but it’s a lot about Conan being sad and angry after his NBC breakup, and you also see a lot of moments of Conan being a manipulative, sarcastic dickhead to the people around him, though most of the time he does have a point. Overall he seems like a nice, cool guy.

Holy shit!
The two lion specimens in Chicago Field Museum are known as FMNH 23970 (killed on December 9, 1898) and FMNH 23969 (killed on December 29, 1898). Recent research has been made upon the isotopic signature analysis of Δ13C and Nitrogen-15 in their bone collagen and hair keratin. Using assumptions such that human victims contained 20 kg of consumable tissue and the different isotope signatures of human flesh to normal lion prey, (if each human killed was entirely consumed) this analysis suggests that FMNH 23969 ate the equivalent of 10.5 humans and that FMNH 23970 ate 24.2 humans.

In the movie (which is fiction, I know, but seems to follow the story fairly closely) they comment about how unusual it is for the lions to be killing for “sport” rather than hunting for food.

Between 1907 and 1938, Corbett tracked and shot a documented 19 tigers and 14 leopards — a total of 33 recorded and documented man-eaters. It is estimated that these big cats had killed more than 1,200 men, women and children. The first tiger he killed, the Champawat Tiger in Champawat, was responsible for 436 documented deaths. He also shot the Panar Leopard, which allegedly killed 400 people. This leopard’s skull and dentition showed advanced, debilitating gum disease and tooth decay, such as would limit the animal in killing wild game and drive it towards man-eating. One of the most famous was the man-eating Leopard of Rudraprayag, which terrorised the pilgrims to the holy Hindu shrines Kedarnath and Badrinath for more than ten years.

"...out of the shadows of unprecedented success, the sun shines down upon this team waiting to thrill anew." - ghostofErikThompson
Personally I view all life as interconnected and valuable
but if you consider pain and suffering and fear to be evil, then you have to acknowledge that a more complex and evolved organism (human beings) can experience a more acute sense of suffering than an animal.
Just my take on it.

So tigers suffer less because they don't understand why bad things are happening to them?
Just that bad things are happening to them. Humans question why and thus it inflicts a deeper sense of emotional pain.

I don't think it's at all clear that animals understand the concept of "bad things happening to them."

It's certainly not clear what animals experience
So I don’t want to make any definitive claims.
But as far as I can tell, an animal doesn’t really experience self-awareness. It feels hunger, it feels natural instinct and impulses, and can also feel positive emotions like familiarity and bonds of partnership, family, or pack.
But I don’t think an animal thinks in terms of “I am in pain, why is this person/creature hurting me?”

Corbett bought his first camera in the late 1920s, and inspired by his friend F. W. Champion, started to record tigers on cine film.2 Although he had an intimate knowledge of the jungle, it was a demanding task to obtain good pictures, as the animals were exceedingly shy. As his admiration for tigers and leopards grew, he resolved never to shoot them unless they turned man-eater or posed a threat to cattle. He expressed regret at killing the Bachelor of Powalgarh.
thats the one above, evidently the last one he killed that wasnt a maneater/cattle threat

Not true at all
Nicholson was the lead in that movie, as he was by far the biggest actor in that movie at the time, but its not like Keaton was only in 2 scenes. It was much like in The Dark Knight where the story is split between the Joker’s story and Batman’s story.

He's not in two scenes, but I was shocked at how little Michael Keaton has to do in those movies
Especially as Bruce Wayne. There was nothing memorable there at all.

The alleged involvement of the MEK in the assassinations of Iranian nuclear scientists provides the U.S. with a cloak of deniability regarding the clandestine killings. Because the U.S. has designated the MEK as a terrorist organization, neither military nor intelligence units of the U.S. government, can work with them. "We cannot deal with them, " said one senior U.S. official. "We would not deal with them because of the designation."
"I’d love to walk in and hug everybody every day, but that’s not critical to us winning." - Jon Daniels
Pretty crazy...
A group of former Cabinet-level officials have joined together to support the MEK’s removal from the official U.S. Foreign Terrorist Organization list, even taking out a full-page ad last year in the New York Times calling for the removal of the MEK from the U.S. terrorist list. Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean, former U.S. Attorney General Michael Mukasey, former U.N. Ambassador John Bolton; former Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge, former FBI Director Louis Freeh and former Rep. Patrick Kennedy were among those whose signatures were on the ad.
"There’s an extraordinary group of bipartisan or even apolitical leaders, military leaders, diplomats, the United States … the United Kingdom, the European Union, even a U.S. District Court in Washington, said that this group that was put on the foreign terrorist organization watch list in 1997 doesn’t deserve to be there," Ridge said

Yeah, but the faith vs. evidence argument simply can't be bridged, in my book
I guarantee you, if there were a way I could scientifically prove there is no god, the religious would still continue believing because they are led by faith, not by sight, etc.
Faith is the ultimate trump card. If you believe, then nothing can persuade you otherwise. And that’s an exhausting battle to fight for us atheists. It’s stopped being entertaining, for me at least.
I enjoy LSB immensely. You guys crack me up on a daily basis. The last thing I wanna do is get in an online ragefest about stupid shit like religion.

I think right now that there is a fair argument for some sort of Deism approach based on science (though obviously there are other conclusions that can be drawn from it). From Deism to Chrstianity, that’s not exactly a huge leap…

This is how I approach this.
I don’t believe in forcing your beliefs on others, no matter what they are. I have zero issue with people who have faith in their lives, and I think it’s something really good for most poeple.
It’s when they try and force it on me that I get frustrated. At the same time, I don’t see the value in trying to convince someone of faith to follow my point of view.

(sigh) Alright, here we go...
…because people who make important decisions about my welfare and the welfare of others (presidents, congressmen, local politicians) feel it is more important to consult a holy book written thousands of years ago by men in the Iron Age than to build upon the rational, evidence-based, empirical tradition of the technological age we live in today.
Because those same decisions prevent us from pursuing stem cell research that could save countless lives and put an end to all sorts of human suffering.
Because those decisions force people to feel guilt and shame about their bodies and the natural sexual functions of the human species (and dear gawd forbid they be attracted to someone of the same sex!)
Because throughout our history, religion has been the primary dividing force between peoples, nations, and cultures.
If we could live and let live, then yeah, we’d be fine. But don’t act like believers don’t have an effect on my life, because they do. Every single minute of every single day, they do.

Do you think killing God will eliminate the moral code people draw from its teachings?
Your problem seems to be more with people who simply don’t reason the way you think they should or believe the same things you believe, not necessarily that it comes from a certain background.
Take stem cells, for example. Most opposition I know from Christians regarding stem cells is due to the issue of abortion. That’s not necessarily a religious argument; it’s a moral one. At least it is for me. My morals may be grounded in my religion, but taking that religion away by disproving God wouldn’t suddenly cause me to reassess everything I believe about morality or rightness.

It's different for different people
because I personally went through such a transition. Some of my beliefs changed when I stopped believing, and some of them stayed the same.
I can’t speak for the whole world. But I do strongly recall being opposed to things like gay marriage simply because The Bible told me to be, not because I felt it deep in my gut as something “wrong.”

I sort of agree with you on point 1.
I often have to explain to Christians why ‘the bible says so’ is not an acceptable reason to create legislation. Ok, not often, but far more often than I would like.
I think you’re overselling stem cell research a bit here and it should be pointed out that a lot of that specific issue will hopefully be proven unnecessary by induced stem cells. I think there are perfectly acceptable moral arguments that can be made for and against in these areas, though, once again, it’s important to note that government policy should not be shaped on something only because the Bible says so.
Calling it the primary dividing force is unfair. Very often, religion is only the cover for other objectives. It’s just another way to paint the enemy/NotUs as different from Us.

I assume that Wildcat's original point
Because throughout our history, religion has been the primary dividing force between peoples, nations, and cultures.
Was about nation vs nation type stuff. Plenty of examples of nations just attacking each other for conquest/greed reasons (especially within Europe), though that doesn’t really fit race or religion. The Crusades were about religion, but it seems fairly clear that race played some role there as well.

I think people associate themselves as Jewish
quite often as a race. They are the “chosen people,” etc.
Race is a classification system used to categorize humans into large and distinct populations or groups by heritable phenotypic characteristics, geographic ancestry, physical appearance, and ethnicity.
Race != Color
It doesn't equal color
but there are no religions out there that are classified as a race. When you fill out any paperwork that asks for race, there’s never a checkbox for Jewish

There is a difference in the Jewish race and the Jewish religion.

BTW, that wasn't meant to be a Godwin's Law thing either
But people who didn’t consider themselves jewish by religion or culture and who only had their connection of their Grandmother being of Jewish descent were still rounded up because they were of “the jewish race” I actually never read up to see why a point was made to separate them but they are different. Madonna is a practicing Jew, that doesn’t make her jewish.

It's your culture
It’s your geographic history, it’s your physical appearance—your phenotypical characteristics…
it’s your race
Its not your geographic history
There are Jews in America, Israel, England, Russia, etc.
Its not your physical appearance or phenotypical characteristics either. There are African American Jews, there are white Jews, there are Chinese Jews, etc. You can convert to Judaism, so what does any phenotypical characteristics have to do with that?

To put it another way, you can be half white and half African American. That has nothing to do about skin color, its just an example of having parents of 2 races.
On the other hand, you cannot be half Jewish. If your mother is Jewish, you are Jewish otherwise you are not. You can convert or denounce your religion if you so please, but you can’t be part Jewish.

No
because much like every other religion, religious beliefs are not your race. People might refer to it as a race off the cuff, but that doesn’t make it a race any more than any other belief system is a race.
This is why on every single form I’ve ever filled out (including the US Census), I’ve never once seen a checkbox for Judaism.
Another question, do you consider Muslims a race?

I really don't understand the disagreement.

I can say this is my Jewish friend
about a 100% Catholic, that doesn’t mean anything.
But if we are assuming that he’s not lying, then he is of the Jewish faith and it has nothing to do with his race. Like I asked above, would you consider a Muslim person to be of the Muslim race?
Also ethnicity does not necessarily mean the same thing as race.
Josey Wales: "And if you think intangibles really do exist, how in the F could you vote Ellsbury as the MVP?"
Adam J. Morris: "If it weren’t for my horse, I wouldn’t have spent that year in college."
Muslim isn't typically acknowledged as a somewhat discrete race.
“Jewish” is.

Because you typically refer to their race as Arab or a specific country
The closest thing for Jewish people would be Israeli, but that’s not that accurate either because of how spread out the Jewish population is over the world. Which is why a Jewish person’s race isn’t tied to their religious beliefs.
Josey Wales: "And if you think intangibles really do exist, how in the F could you vote Ellsbury as the MVP?"

The issue
is how long Jews have been (mainly) marrying each other. That leads to the Jewish race having certain heritable traits, and certain subsects of Jews have higher incidences of certain specific genetic diseases.
"I’d love to walk in and hug everybody every day, but that’s not critical to us winning." - Jon Daniels
This is true
but it doesn’t mean that they group as a whole is a single race. Especially not in present day when Jews have been marrying outside the religion more than ever before.

Tell me what comes up
"I’d love to walk in and hug everybody every day, but that’s not critical to us winning." - Jon Daniels

Is Drake half Jewish, half white, and half black then? Is he half black, a quarter white and a quarter Jewish?
Josey Wales: "And if you think intangibles really do exist, how in the F could you vote Ellsbury as the MVP?"
Adam J. Morris: "If it weren’t for my horse, I wouldn’t have spent that year in college."
That is the point.
Nobody is saying you are a particular race at all.
People of the Jewish ethnicity can also be people of the Jewish faith, and vice versa. But you can also be of the Jewish faith and not be ethnically Jewish.

If you are half-black, are you not black?
Why can’t you be part-Jewish?
If your mom’s dad is Jewish, but her mom is not, and both of your dad’s parents are Jewish….
then you aren’t Jewish, despite having 75% Jewish genes**?
(*no knowledge of genetics was used for this calculation)
Its part of the religious beliefs
It just goes through the mother regardless of the father. Its why in Judaism, a man cannot marry a non-Jewish woman but the same law does not necessarily apply to a woman.
Josey Wales: "And if you think intangibles really do exist, how in the F could you vote Ellsbury as the MVP?"
Adam J. Morris: "If it weren’t for my horse, I wouldn’t have spent that year in college."
I feel like we're just talking about the religion then
I just think to say it isn’t a race, you have to ignore every element of the definition of race.
That's what we talked about above
It doesn’t ignore every element at all. Most if not all the element of what classifies a race do not apply to Judaism much like they do not apply to any religion.

Sorry but your religious beliefs don't trump DNA
Science is science, in the same way that just cause evangelicals say that the Earth is 6,000 years old doesn’t make it true. You may not believe it but it doesn’t make it any less true.
@AdamLikesBeer If you are in Minneapolis I can tell you where to get a good brew.
This is ridiculous
Religion is religion. As part of the Jewish beliefs, you are born Jewish if your mother is Jewish. This has nothing to do with science at all but simply faith. IF you choose not to believe that, then fine. But know that this is not what Judaism believes in.
That says nothing about what race you are. If your mother is white and your father is black, then your half white, half black, and completely Jewish. If you want to get into a conversation about what potential genetic traits may be passed down in people who are Jewish, that is a separate conversation. But you cannot genetically pass down a religion to your children.

I don't get why it is so hard to understand that there are two different things that both use the term 'Jewish' or 'Jew' to describe them.
Being Ethnically Jewish and being a Jew because of your religion are two different things. They just use the same word.

If you are descended from an ethnically Jewish family you are ethnically Jewish whether or not you are a practicing Jew. You inherit certain physical characteristics from your family that are common to Ethnic Jews.
If you are Jewish by religion you are Jewish because you are a follower of Judaism.
There is overlap. Most, but not all, Ethnic Jews are also followers of Judaism.

"I’d love to walk in and hug everybody every day, but that’s not critical to us winning." - Jon Daniels
Eh, I'd rather not get too deep into it
But suffice it to say that our thought processes as regards God, Christianity, religion, morality, etc. had certain parallels. However, I think those processes have taken us down two very different paths and led to differing belief structures.
I hope that’s vague enough for you.
"Live like you’re already dead, man. Have a good time. Do your best. Let it all come ripping right through you."

Don't get me wrong, I think C.S. Lewis was a brilliant mind
but I’ve read most of his Narnia books, and several of his other works of fiction/non-fiction. I just don’t think he’s that good for a writter. The Screwtape Letters was about the only one I enjoyed.

Read it a few times in college. I couldn’t get past the logical jumps in Mere Christianity, so I didn’t finish that one. It was frustrating to me that Francis Collins relied on it so much in his book The Language of God.

Yeah Mere Christianity was the one I was thinking of as well
I put Lewis in the same box with guys like G.K. Chesterton. Brilliant mind, intelligent (and very British) sense of humor, but just…flawed in their reasoning, and rather dull in their prose.

I had a roommate buy me that book for a birthday present
When we came to Baylor, I was the evangelical Christian and he was more or less apathetic toward religion. By the end of college I was a stonecold atheist and he had “discovered his faith.”
And three years later (we’re still friends) he buys me this book for my birthday, knowing full well my views on Christianity, C.S. Lewis, etc.
It was an….awkward moment, to say the least.

When you first start doing it, beer and cigarettes tastes like ass.
But you keep doing it because it’s cool. Then you realize that a buzz with a smoke is actually quite pleasant. Then you realize the smoke hitting your throat after a good drink of whiskey is God talking. Then you realize you’re a fucking addict.

Well it doesn't help that Ryan is trying to plug different people into different roles
and just praying that one of them might not suck as bad as the others.
But when you see guys blowing coverages and pointing and waving their hands in confusion in Weeks 16 and 17, you’ve got to wonder…

i am saying that i do not expect the cowboys to go to a complete 4-3
i would not be shocked if they did a 4-3 at times
but going to a 4-3 negates the best player on your team/forces him into a totally different role.
and 4-3 requires different personnel than you currently have
so no, i do not think they go to a 4-3
now if they sign mario williams, things are going to be different.
also, if they go to a 4-3 i would expect them to bring in a DC who is a 4-3 only guy.
Scout: He was a first-round pick right? Got a huge bonus?
KG: Oh yeah.
Scout: Well, he spent a lot of it on milkshakes.
i would say our personnel is more suited for a 4-3 and a 3-4
and, that would be more appealing to, like you said, FAs like Mario. Maybe draft Upshaw as your SSLB.
As for Ryan, he grew up with a 4-3 around him, i don’t think that’s going to be a problem.
What did Mario play in last year?

Well....I went a second time because when I saw it the first time...
It was at an art house theatre in Houston. Packed. This older couple would not stop talking, the entire movie. For a film that is nearly silent for most of the time, it was incredibly distracting. The managers refused to do anything about it.

My daughter had me put on Star Wars last night. She’s 3. I have no idea where she learned about Star Wars.
I put it on, and she starts naming the characters, like she’s seen it a million times. I’m still trying to figure it out.
She asked me where Jar Jar Binks was, why Obi Wan had grey (not brown) hair, and if we could watch the “Yoda one.”

Salary/Keeper fantasy league trade question
Very strong when it comes to SP (Halladay, Felix, Kershaw, Hanson, CJ, Colby, Worley), SS (Elvis + Reyes) and at C (Avila, CSantana) at the major league level
Is packaging Avila + Wilson for a combo of Shields, Wainwright, Gary Brown a good enough deal for me or should i shoot for more?
Avila was the #3 catcher in our league last year, CJ the #12 pitcher and Shields the #6 SP
(and yes, no one cares about my fantasy team — also, I ran away with the league last year)
Scout: He was a first-round pick right? Got a huge bonus?
KG: Oh yeah.
Scout: Well, he spent a lot of it on milkshakes.
I don't know about the trade...
But Avila is a great sell high candidate. He’s a strong regression candidate.
"I became an optimist when I discovered that I wasn't going to win any more games by being anything else." by Earl Weaver
im all for moving him and packaging him with CJ
just not sure where i need to “get better” (other than with HR/RBI, this is h2h)
even then, not sure where i put it with my team (i tend to go for guys who play a lot and not shuffle them in/out, everyone on my team had 485+ ABs last year other than avila)
Scout: He was a first-round pick right? Got a huge bonus?
