It is so vile yet you use it for searches? Isn't that hypocritical?
 
Which newspaper has the best reputation?
The New York Times
 
For more than 150 years, Times readers have expected their newspaper to
provide the most thorough and uncompromising coverage in the world. The
Times has won more Pulitzer prizes than any other news organization and
remains No. 1 in overall reach of U.S. opinion leaders
 
How reliable is The Times newspaper?
A Reuters Institute survey in 2021 put the number of digital subscribers
at around 400,000, and ranked The Times as having the sixth highest
trust rating out of 13 different outlets polled. The Times Digital
Archive is available by subscription.

Of course not - I have a historical "bent", ya know...

Sure, they even got Pulitzers for Stalin apologists* (Walter Duranty) and more recently, " Russia gate " - which was exposed as a TOTAL hoax...
 
These days, a Pulitzer ain't worth even the price of a prize in a Cracker Jack box...
 
They've been doing the " fake nooze "schtickle for 90 years now:

*The New York Times' can't shake the cloud over a 90-year-old Pulitzer Prize
 
The New York Times is looking to add to its list of 132 Pulitzer Prizes — by far the most of any news organization — when the 2022 recipients for journalism are announced on Monday.
 
Yet the war in Ukraine has renewed questions of whether the Times should return a Pulitzer awarded 90 years ago for work by Walter Duranty, its charismatic chief correspondent in the Soviet Union.
 
"He is the personification of evil in journalism," says Oksana Piaseckyj, a Ukrainian-American activist who came to the U.S. as a child refugee in 1950. She is among the advocates for the return of the award. "We think he was like the originator of fake news."

It wants your apple ID, right?
 
If you have more than one, you can sign in with whichever you want.
If you later need to use the other ID, just sign out from the
current apple ID, then you can sign in with the other whenever you
want.
 
Sometimes apple and their ID is a real PITA.

That Malinois I had loved to roll in dead things. One spring he used to
come back from his runs in the woods with a stench that was getting
stronger and stronger. I stopped taking him back to the field where he
seemed to find it but he was fast and had a mind of his own, though he
always came back.
 
My son and I took him for a run but stayed well away from that field. He
went for his run and came back. He very rotten raccoon spine stuck in
his training collar. I grabbed a stick to try to loosen it was so foul
smelling that we almost puked. We took him to the house and gave him a
bath in the back yard. He was shampooed, rinsed repeated three times
before we got the smell off him. That part of the lawn where he had his
bath stunk for about a week.

That's one thing that has always puzzled me, too. Who's going to enjoy those
teddy bears?? Let's not forget these displays usually have a few dozen balloons
as well.

No but I suppose it helps some. Years ago a kid was killed by a
school bus near where I lived outside of town. Instantly there were
masses of teddies etc. I thought it was terrible that they were
still there when it snowed and the plough came along - what a ghastly
looking mess :( I think your point is interesting, maybe it's
because it takes the place of gatherings at the church.

I don't quite understand why there are crosses and bouquets of flowers
at sites of roadside accidents. Usually seen out in the country. Does
the grieving family really go back and keep laying fresh flowers next to
a cross where someone was killed in a car accident? I find it odd, to
say the least.

OK, then explain the ritual. I never understood it either. I don't see
any value to buy a bunch of flowers and dump them on a pile of other
flowers to be carted off to the dump. Perhaps the teddy bears can be
salvaged and given away.

Not that I've ever done anything like that, but I guess it makes the
person who puts flowers etc. there, feel a little bit better. It's not
about practical use or monetary value.

Don't be daft, Ed...
 
It's the same thing as us Christians setting a place for The Christ Child at one's Christmas dinner table...
 
It's about the "spirit" of "things"...!!!

An opinion piece and historical views on real vaccines
is not scientific evidence.
 
You are trying to pain anyone who does not agree
with your narrative as anti-vax. You are twisting and
smearing others.

Another o pinon piece. This is NOT science.
 
 
> https://bmcpublichealth.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12889-021-12114-8
 
This also has nothing to do with scientific evidence.
 
Ed, I showed data and charts based on the data of
the dangers of TH*S not-a-real-vaccine vaccine.
This is how science works. Yo on the the other hand
showed only opinion.
 
Your "opinions" are not science.
 
This is why you resort to smearing and lying
about others.

No. The course was the integration of multidimensional
differential equations. You got a mathematical expression,
and were required to integrate it.
 
 
Essentially, everyone was expected at that point to be able
to differentiate equations. Simple algebraic equations can be
integrated term by term, but not more complex ones.
 
So for a test or exam question, you would more or less
look at an expression and ask yourself: "Okay, what math
expression will produce this when it is differentiated?
 
Remarkably, the answer would often just come into my mind
unprovoked by any sort of rational erudition.

You find Padma Lakshmi pretty? She's only
marginally better looking than Stormy Daniels.
