Agreed. A better metric is a journey of constant distance, I've been making long journeys(4-6 or 8-10hrs) since early childhood. They definitely feel considerably shorter now. Of course, that doesn't clarify whether the discrepancy is because I've seen it before, or simply because of the ratio of distance/lifespan.

Being one of those Health Nuts, I practice CR during the weekdays, and let my self go (relatively) on the weekends, I'd recommend that anyone try it for a month. The first week is the hardest, but you will feel a lot more in tune w/ your body.

You've hit on the logical fallacy that everyone seems to gloss over, namely, Men and Women are not different species. Any trait selected for would manifest in both genders. What this would lend credence to, is the cultural meme concept.

I hate to pile on here,but... I think the parallax here is that axod may be equating headcount with income diversification. i.e. More people mean your company must be expanding its interests or avenues. Income diversification, and the headcount increase usually (necessarily?) associated with it is probably a better metric for the "Lifestyle" moniker.

Nope. "Public" education implies that everyone can have it. Vouchers don't provide admission, just a means to pay tuition if you are accepted.

This is kinda disingenuous.

1) Vouchers do not cover the cost of most DC area private schools. They provide approx. $7500, but most top tier schools cast approx $20k, so the school is expected to kick in the remainder.

2) If vouchers became universally available it would simply inflate the cost of all private schools by the voucher amount, with no increase in student achievement.

3) A largely overlooked element is that private schools get to /choose/ whom they accept. This allows them to preselect the voucher recipients that they think would succeed.

or even their end of the /explicit/ bargain. I had a prof fail me, after announcing that the final grade would be the class grade. I never went to class, so he felt justified in ignoring my A-/B+... took me awhile to get over that slight.

Very slippery slope. If overt warfare becomes obsolete, civilians might be the only targets.

Let's quantify this, what number makes you rich?
