In 2008, it appeared that a world-wide depression was looming on the horizon. A lot has changed since that time, including a several trillion dollar bailout that was never attempted in the dirty 30's. Today on Canada's Business News Network, it was demonstrated that the TSX has been on an...

Many of the raw materials that are subject to the "Buy American" plan are commodities that fuel the TSX up here. If the U.S. was to impose tariffs (or simply refuse to buy Canadian commodities), NAFTA would effectively be dead, and Canada would be forced to sign new trade deals with Europe and...

"They worshipped, so they said, the Great Old Ones who lived ages before there were any men, and who came to the young world out of the sky. Those Old Ones were gone now, inside the earth and under the sea; but their dead bodies had told their secrets in dreams to the first men, who formed a...

Astroboy, Thanks for voicing exactly how I feel about the decline of personal responsibility and the rise of "blameless culture" that society seems to have embraced. I could not have said it better myself.

Amero my ass.... I guess you lot haven't been watching the more mainstream media that has broke the "Buy American" policy the new administration is on the verge of passing. This policy (albeit illegal) will negate the entire NAFTA trade structure we currently have in place and make it...

Most North American diets are comprised of a lot of "cheap calories" that are derived from simple carbohydrates. This would include white bread, white flour, white rice, corn syrup and other refined sugars. The problem with these kinds of energy sources is that they are converted to glucose in...

There is an easy cure for obesity: diet and exercise. If fact, diet is 65% of any effective weight loss program. To lose weight, one needs to cut back on "bad" calories (such as added sugars and excessive fats) and focus on eating lean proteins, fruits and vegetables in small portions, several...

We had what sounded like children in the attic once. It turned out to be raccoons who had taken up residence for the winter. You'd be surprised how adept they are at finding a way in. Raccoons are also mainly nocturnal, so you normally hear them at night as they tend to sleep most of the day...

I have been to the Coral Castle. It is an amazing feat of human engineering. After seeing what Leedskalnin was able to accomplish by himself, I can only imagine what an Egyptian Pharaoh with a team of thousands of loyal, dedicated workers could have accomplished. Although I have to admit some...

The beautiful thing about the internet is that it has provided a common medium for all men and women to be able to communicate their thoughts and ideas freely and equally without any regard for educational background or social class. Unfortunately, this has also proved to be its biggest curse...

Have your Physical Anthro buddies ever been to Canada??? :confused: I have been up to Kapuskasing, Ontario twice... The bush up there is so thick you can't pitch a tent without an axe, and that is only 9 hours north of Toronto (straight up Yonge Street!). You can drive 2.5 hours north of the...

To play the Devil's Advocate, human arrogance could also explain why we perceive so-called "alien races" as humanoid. If we are to look at this objectively, the conditions of whatever world these things allegedly come from would have to be very similar to ours in planetary conditions and...

Welcome to the killfile, princess.

Namecalling: Always the sign of a true intellectual. :rolleyes:

The other thread was not a train wreck. The other thread demonstrated that the devestation at the WTC was not caused by controlled demolition. When you and Pixelsmith saw that you were not going to convince anyone otherwise, you attempted to derail the thread by going off-topic and trying to...

I have always been fascinated by the stories about bigfoot (I also blame Spock for this - lol). I think the piece of evidence that did it for me was the "crippled footprint". Casts and analysis can be found here: http://home.clara.net/rfthomas/papers/anatomy.html Coincidentally, I was...

You are running away from the topic at hand by putting up a load of BS that has nothing to do with this foolish controlled demolition theory you were so gung-ho about prior to Status4, Astroboy and I shooting more holes in it than a speghetti strainer. The Pentagon attack has _nothing_ to do...

C'mon.... Being faceless behind a keyboard turns anyone into Superman! God bless the internet. :rolleyes:

Why should I explain anything to you? The topic being discussed is whether the collapse of the WTC was due to controlled demolition, not your own pet theories about boxcutters flying planes. It is pretty pathetic that you are still trying to validate this silly theory with a lame attempt to...

Explain. What do box cutters have to do with your pet theory that controlled demolition was responsible for the destruction of the WTC? BTW: It is utterly laughable that you continually refer to box cutters as if they were no more dangerous than super soakers. I would be willing to bet...
