  1. The funds Mar-a-Lardo wants to cut are RESEARCH funds, not operating funds. Would not directly affect funding for academic COURSES.
  2. Saw a vid years ago , Thai mob chased a foreigner on Soi Nana in Bangkok. He stopped, turned around, and kicked several Thai asses. The rest of the mob then left him alone.
  3. Ask Twitler and his followers, the embodiments of loser.
  4. Still waiting. Yagoda? Harrisfan? Sunny in Bangrak? Ted G? One More Farang? RCLag? etc.
  5. I would have expected more voices in her defense from those saying, "It's a man- and it is not against the law for men to show their breasts." Actually, I expect crickets.
  6. What I don't understand is why >200 people , deported without the Constitutionally required due process, go to a prison in a foreign country? If I am deported for being in Thailand illegally, I don't go to a SuperMax prison upon being returned to the States. I just go home. Can some MAGAT explain that?
  7. If you have to "guess" at this, you are already too far gone on the wrong side of the Constitution.
  8. Any officials involved with this illegal deportation and imprisonment should remain in jail until he's returned to his family in the US.
  9. I'm thinking about starting a thread with all these promises, pledges, and commitments so we can track updates.
  10. I'd venture a guess that it somehow accidentally found its way into his PP. Like PP and coke were in the same pocket/bag and it got stuck in PP. He probably thought he lost it but wasn't concerned, as it was a small amount.
  11. Antibiotics are the #1 reason for the increase in human longevity since 1940
  12. At what height should taller women be disqualified from fighting shorter women?
  13. More power, but maybe less agility? Isn't agility more important in a sport like fencing?
  14. In China, the principals would be executed!
  15. What other buildings were either built by them or used their steel?
  16. Why weren't these flaws discovered during regular testing?
  17. He basically divides the trade deficit by imports for each country, gets that percentage, and divides it by 2 to arrive at the tariff The actual method: Consider an environment in which the U.S. levies a tariff of rate τ_i on country i and ∆τ_i reflects the change in the tariff rate. Let ε<0 represent the elasticity of imports with respect to import prices, let φ>0 represent the passthrough from tariffs to import prices, let m_i>0 represent total imports from country i, and let x_i>0 represent total exports. Then the decrease in imports due to a change in tariffs equals ∆τ_i*ε*φ*m_i<0. Assuming that offsetting exchange rate and general equilibrium effects are small enough to be ignored, the reciprocal tariff that results in a bilateral trade balance of zero satisfies: https://ustr.gov/sites/default/files/files/Press/Releases/2025/Screenshot%202025-04-02%20200501.png https://static01.nytimes.com/newsgraphics/2025-04-02-tariff-math/7c47dfa7-7bf8-4f83-b342-03ae9a499437/_assets/equation-china-middle.jpg
  18. Back in the '60s-'70s, there was a public road safety commercial on TV with the tagline " He was right. Dead right"
