Swan Oat posted:Paging Joementum it is a unicarmel legislature with multiple parties. Senators are representatives for sector leaders, and the leader can come in and assume the duties directly. Nominally the leader of the sector is in charge of the senator, but in terns of effective power senators have vastly more wealth, power, and authority. However the power the sector leader wields is direct, as an executive of their polity, but the one of the senator is indirect through a legislature. Not that hard.

Well this is loving terrible. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/...tm_content=link quote:According to the World Health Organization, "lead affects children's brain development resulting in reduced intelligence quotient (IQ), behavioral changes such as shortening of attention span and increased antisocial behavior, and reduced educational attainment. Lead exposure also causes anemia, hypertension, renal impairment, immunotoxicity and toxicity to the reproductive organs. The neurological and behavioral effects of lead are believed to be irreversible." Hey Free Market though right?

Trabisnikof posted:So you can keep arguing from your personal experience, but I'm going to trust the data on this one. As far as sending host data to the authorities, they're exercising their right to protect the privacy of their users. If it was a company you liked you'd be cheering them on. The NY attorney general's office has a long tradition of prosecutorial overreach so I don't blame them.

The bad thing about them discovering the high concentrations of lead is that the effects won't probably be seen for years. Plus they may not have tested all the children. Flint really just needs to be completely scuttled as a town.

Hollismason posted:Well this is loving terrible. One of America's greatest freedoms is the freedom to move whenever you want. If those Michiganders didn't like the taste of their water, they should have moved. As I'm sure you know, Chicago has great tasting, pure Lake Michigan water. Perhaps if those Michiganders want some tasty water, they should move to Chicago. And in case AA thinks this argument is in bad faith: No, AA, I post in good faith when I post about how Chicago is better than Michigan. Where did those Michiganders go to get help and testing, after all? Chicago. Gail Wynand posted:So 36% of all "private hosts" (a subset of the total hosts on Airbnb) in NYC (not Airbnb's only market) are evil landlords who should be expropriated and sent down to the countryside. In other words, a small minority of hosts seem to abuse the platform, not something anyone (including Airbnb) disputes and in other contexts they have been cooperative in cracking down on this. What percentage of total listings do those 36% of hosts list?

Kurt_Cobain posted:Maybe they are making a distinction between private direct messages and public postings viewable by everyone We have a winner. From the San Bernardino thread: quote:Contrary to previous reports that suspected San Bernardino mass shooters Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik posted their support for jihad on social media, the FBI announced Wednesday that the pair, in fact, did not. The agency's chief, James Comey, told the media on Wednesday that the couple only established their jihadi support in private emails and messages. "We have found no evidence of a posting on social media by either of them," Comey reportedly said.

Or the establishment sees Cruz stepping ahead of Rubio and this is them moving to cut him down within the party establishment. The message isn't to voters, it is to donors, party bosses, and players who are on the sidelines or looking at Cruz as the anti-Trump instead of Rubio.
