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).

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.

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.

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.

Britain is building a railway in Kenya

Val Kilmer gets hired to oversee the construction. Two lions start killing railway workers. Michael Douglas plays a hunter named Remington who they bring in to kill them.

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.

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.

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.

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."

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.

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.

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.

To be honest, I’ve found actively avoiding the topic is the overall best strategy to not stressing friendships more than necessary.

I think playing it loud enough that your coworkers can hear and be annoyed by it is pretty bad.

If I am imagining the genre you’re talking about correctly.

But I would be lying if I said I didn’t play Christian music from time to time in my office.

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.

Heh,

though I know it’s not the most common thing, your personal experience (and other’s I know) are what I point to when people assume that going to Baylor means you are a brainwashed Baptist.

Baylor is a university full of all sorts of people

I mean, several of my best friends were Shia muslims.

But the clear, overwhelming majority of people there are white Baptists who have gone to church most of their lives.

I've never understood this

The few times I’ve smoked and drank, I felt like it absolutely ruined the taste of the beer.

But a large majority of my smoker friends say they only smoke when they drink. I dunno. Is it a difference in tastebuds or something?

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.

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.

Salary/Keeper fantasy league trade question

my team:

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.

by knockoutking on Feb 9, 2012 11:06 AM CST reply actions  

I don't know about the trade...

But Avila is a great sell high candidate. He’s a strong regression candidate.

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)

So how would you guys like the Mike E story?

I have it all typed up and it’s pretty long, plus I’m gonna include the pictures. Should I just create the PM OT thread in a little bit, or would you like me to share it in this one?
