Rayon Challis Skirt 6 6
Pretty and versatile little skirt. I love this spring skirt...it goes with lots of colors, is cool and pretty and it makes me smile.!!!! April 4, 2014
A nice drapy, fluid skirt. This is a nice skirt, very soft and fluid, with vibrant colors. The sizing appears to be just right. January 27, 2014
Nice Fabric This is a middle of the road summer skirt. Nothing special about it - the fabric is nice which is why I kept it. Little maintenance but it doesn't particularly flatter my figure. Like most of the clothes from Vermont Country Store, it is basically mid 50's design which is kind of timeless but has little or no wow factor to it. September 2, 2013
just what I wanted I had been looking for a rayon print dress or skirt for office wear in the summer. This was just what I wanted. June 25, 2013
Very nice. I adore rayon for summer! Nothing feels quite so cool and silky soft. I opened the package & put this skirt on immediately. Must be extraordinarily comfortable as I didn't take it off until bed that night. I felt I must own this skirt already as it is "so me." Ordered the blue and no detectable odors. My nose is sensitive. May 16, 2013
Too Much Dye Made the Skirt Smell Awful When I removed the skirt from the packaging, there was a dreadful odor. I hung it outside for hours to air it out, but nothing could get rid of the smell. It's a pretty skirt and it fits me well. But with the smell, it was not wearable. Even my cats sniffed it and couldn't stand it. I think the smell was from the dye. I hand washed it and an enormous amount of black dye came out in the water. The other colors in the skirt picked up some of the dye from the water and they are no longer as bright and pretty as they were before the washing. The black now looks more like midnight blue. The smell is gone and after ironing it with a cool iron, I can wear the skirt. It looks a bit dingy though. August 24, 2012

As a city in its own right, Dalat offers somes of Vietnam's tastiest fare. Fresh vegetables, forest honey, artichokes, milk and meat abound in this romantic, hilly destination. Formerly a group of residences built by the French in the 1920s, Ana Mandara's signature Le Petit Dalat Restaurant has been turned into a dining venue reminiscent of time pass.
The restaurant's a la carte breakfast menu is a modern interpretation of a charming European breakfast
Le Petit Dalat's dinner menu is decidedly the restaurant's claim to fame. Their wide-ranging wine list - one of the country's best - features wines to complement any dishes. Scrumptious appetizers include hot seared sashimi and traditional Vietnamese spring rolls.
Their trademark Vietnamese-European fusion dishes comprise mouthwatering Australian beef tenderloin, plus grilled chicken marinated in lemongrass, ginger and oyster sauce. Don't miss the exotic Pandan leaf cream brulée with mulberry ice cream.
Though the dining room is lovely, guests can choose to eat in the privacy of their balcony, or in the attic wine cellar. Couples can relax over a romantic, candlelit dinner complete with flower decoration. Clients may also opt for a group barbeque in the restaurant's courtyard, or a private picnic at Tuyen Lam Lake. Another spectacular option for lovers of authentic Vietnamese cuisine is a private cooking class led by renowned Chef Huong.
Food & Beverage Facilities
In-Villa Dining
In-Villa Dining is by prior arrangement - either as a formal set dinner or as a more relaxed open barbeque - are both unique features of our service. As each villa comes with a fully equipped kitchen, we can easily arrange romantic candlelit dinners in the Villa Dining room or set on your own private balcony.
Group barbeques or dinners also provide a breathtaking twist in a private dining room or in villa garden, particularly if travelling with friends and families, or getting away for a small group meeting.
"Le Petit Dalat" Restaurant
The resort's restaurant offers delicious Vietnamese and fusion cuisine options. With the extensive wine lists, Ana Mandara Villas Dalat is a world class food and beverage destination.
Bar Nine
Come over to Bar Nice after a hard day discovering the town. Choose from a wide selection of appetites, spirits or wines. Located near the restaurant, Bar Nine is the perfect place to finish or start the evening
Pool bar
By the pool, we offer an extensive cocktail list and snack menu, as you lounge on the pool on the glorious sunny Dalat days.
Wine cellar
Book yourself in for a treat by having dinner in our wine cellar in the attic. The cellar sets up an evening for a very intimate experience. Experience as the lighting and the surrounds set the tone for that special occasion or for a private dinner with a few friends.
Cooking class
Book in for a cooking class to go on a culinary discovery through Vietnam. Classes are held around 11am which takes an hour to prepare after which you can sit down to the feast you just cooked up

Like many cities, taxis play a major role in getting people around Paris. However getting a taxi in Paris can be quite a challenge. And with only 4000 cabs added since 1937, from 14k to 18K, if you've ever been standing on a deserted street at 2am, then you don't need me to tell you what a relief it is to find a taxi when you need it.
Also, as far as I know, Paris is one of the only European cities where the meters start when you call the cab. So be aware that if calling in advance, there will already be a higher fare on the meter than what is normally there if you just hail one yourself. (The Lyria train has a service where they will have a cab waiting for you at the Gare de Lyon, which I once used and when I got in, I saw the meter already had €17 on it. The total fare was €24 so most of it was "waiting time. I do recommend using a driver or making arrangements to be picked up by a service or taxi if arriving at the Gare du Nord via the Eurostar as there can be huge lines for taxis there. But at the other stations, it's usually not a problem.)
A couple of new services have started in Paris. One are shared cabs, where you split the fare with someone. I'm not sure if you'll save all that much on a trip within the city, but going to the airport can cut the far almost by half. Another development are véhicules de tourisme avec chauffeur (VTC), or taxi-like vehicles with private drivers. The government is trying to impose a rule that if you use a non taxi chauffeur, they have to wait 15 minutes before picking you up. Here are a few other caveats to know about taking a taxi in Paris:

Beautifully made boat shoes in a lovely rich brown oiled leather. Very comfortable from the start - quite unusual in this style. They are wide and come up slightly longer than average so I had to go down a half size to get a good fit (I have wide feet). I would thoroughly recommend them and hope to get a second pair.

Not so comfy new shoes
Most Helpful Critical Review
This pair of shoes looks very nice on, but there is a problem having worn them for a few weeks I am still struggling with a seam inside the shoe on both feet that is giving me blisters every time I wear them out. The seam is about 1/2 way down the side of my baby toe in both shoes, what a shame as they are comfy otherwise.

A grammar of Bezhta
This project aims at the description of Bezhta. The grammar will include phonology, morphology and syntax.
Bezhta belongs to the Tsezic branch of the Nakh-Daghestanian language family, which is spoken in Russia, in the Republic of Daghestan. Bezhta has three dialects, Bezhta Proper, Tladal and Khasharkhota. The grammar is based on Bezhta Proper.
Bezhta is spoken by about 8000 people who live in the mountains in the villages Bezhta, Tladal and Khasharkhota, in some lowland districts of Daghestan and in the Daghestanian capital Makhachkala.
Bezhta has a covert gender category, realized primarily through cross-referencing of arguments on verbs, a small number of non-local cases and a rich system of local cases. Verbs have very rich morphological system of TAM, with distinct finite and non-finite forms (converbs, participles, masdar). Bezhta is a head-final language with the basic word order SOV.

I bought J Del Pozo in Black, solely based on reviews. Never smelled it b4. Its a beautiful burst of freshness at first---almost powdery BUT spicy too! And it fades out to sweet puff of fresh, innocence and sexiness all at once. Unique fragrance! Love it!

In Black is a wonderful fragrance. I am not one who like strong flowery scents. I like the subtle spicy, woods with a hint of flowery. This fragrance fits my bill exactly. It's not a "knock you over" type of scent but rather more on the mystery side. With it's subtle scent people tend to come close and asked to smell my wrist. They comment on how unique the scent is. This is what I want in the fragrance I wear.

J DEL POZO IN BLACK is a beautiful fragrance which is not overpowering but intrigues a person to want to smell it & ask, what are you wearing, it smells just beautiful.

And I'm running out of places to hide them. I think my friends would notice, they have wee beady eyes for stuff like that.
So I cancelled.
Then I was supposed to go to a family dinner and had to cancel that too. Boooo... But I did get to go out for a fancy lunch with my 7 year old. We had fries. We made angry french fry-brows, frylashes, Fry-mpires with bloody ketchup teeth, butter-fries, fryangles, frystaches, got fry-tened and then decided that we were pretty good fry-ends. We also arm wrestled and I lost. All in all a pretty good birthday lunch.
But the good news is that maybe I'm feeling better finally today? There might still be a little fur in my sinuses, but no full blown gremlin-cats like all week. When I feel better, I'll ukulele something up for you. I haven't had a voice for a few days so I can't sing, unless you like gagging-hack-coughs coupled with peppy ukulele music. It could work?

Tough finish for Arlington seniors
These seniors would not be separated.
It's a familiar story for anyone who has followed the Arlington program this season.
Though tears streamed down their faces earlier in the night, their red faces beamed with pride.
"We accomplished so many things this season," senior Lindsay Brown said.
The Eagles started the season 14-0. They won the Wesco North title. They made the state tournament for the first time since 2001 and the final for the first time since 1982 -- Arlington's only basketball state championship. The second-place trophy that the second-year coach Joe Marsh and his team bring back to Arlington will be just the third piece of hardware in school history for girls basketball. Arlington also has an eighth place trophy from 1999.
"That second-place trophy we are really proud of," Marsh said. "That's something that nobody can take from us."
Though the tears spread throughout the locker room, it wasn't because the Eagles let one slip away or they felt like a missed opportunity. It was more that such a good thing has come to an end.
"(Mead) deserved that one tonight," Marsh said. "They were the better team. ... If they have a weakness, we didn't find it."
After the game, Marsh and his staff helped the players keep their heads high.
"It's incredible," he said. "It's tough right now, but we will step away from this in perspective."
Brown, who lead the team in scoring all season, had her worst game of the tournament and was scoreless in the first half against the Panthers. But she showed her mettle in the second half and reminded Eagles fans of what will be her legacy.
"She's one of the main reasons we are here," Marsh said. "She got us this far."
Brown was the spearhead of the six seniors, who Marsh said welcomed freshmen and sophomores and embraced them as an important part of this season's journey. It has been a surprise ride.
"I wouldn't have expected it," Brown said. "To get second in state: it's pretty impressive for us."
Marsh could only gush about all of the Eagles who played their last game.
"Krista (Showalter) is a phenomenal point guard," Marsh said. "She makes us go."
He said Arlington couldn't do without Taylor Grahm, who stretched defenses from beyond the 3-point line, and kept the Eagles in it early against Mead with a pair of first-quarter 3-pointers.
Marsh marveled at the growth of Winter Brown over his time with the school.
The loss of Veronica Ladines to a hand injury a month ago, was one that Marsh lamented because of her athleticism and versatility.
Perhaps forgotten by many fans, but not by Marsh, was Marissa Swegle, who didn't play much this season, in part due to a knee injury.
Swegle came off the bench in the final seconds to score the final two points for the Eagles with a pair of free throws, much to the delight of the Arlington fans.
"She's the emotional heart of this team," Marsh said.
The six seniors set some new standards that everyone expects will carry into the future.
"The hallmark of this team is our lack of quit," Marsh said. "We are going to do everything we can until that buzzer sounds to win the game."
They did that 22 times this season including an overtime thriller against Lake Stevens Friday that Marsh said, "was the best game I've ever been involved with."
"We have a great foundation to build on here."

Davis ran in the 2012 election for the U.S. House to represent Illinois' 13th District.[2][3] Davis was nominated by the Republican party to fill the vacancy left after incumbent Timothy V. Johnson announced his decision to retire following the Republican primary.[4][4] Davis defeated David Gill (D) in the general election on November 6, 2012.
He ran for re-election to the U.S. House in 2014. He defeated Michael Firsching and Erika Harold in the Republican primary on March 18, 2014.[5] The general election took place November 4, 2014.
Davis is a member of the National Republican Campaign Committee's Patriot program.[6][7] According to a Washington Post article in December 2012, Davis is one of the 10 most vulnerable incumbents in 2014.[8]
Based on analysis of multiple outside rankings, Davis is a more moderate right of center Republican Party vote. As a result, he may break with the Republican Party line more than his fellow members.
Davis was born in Des Moines, Iowa, before moving with his family to Taylorsville, Illinois, when he was seven. Davis attended schools in the area, worked at a McDonalds, which was operated by his parents, and then attended Millikin University where he majored in political science. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree and graduated in 1992. He then went to work for the Illinois Secretary of State, followed by an unsuccessful run for the Illinois Legislature in 1998. He went on to work for U.S. Rep. John Shimkus' campaign from 1997 until 2012, when he quit to run for office.[9]
Below is an abbreviated outline of Davis' professional and political career[9]:
- 1997-2012: Projects director, John Shimkus' campaign
- 2011: Executive Director, Illinois Republican Party
- 1992-1996: Staff Assistant, Illinois Secretary of State

National security
DHS Appropriations
Davis voted in favor of HR 2217 - the DHS Appropriations Act (2014) Act of 2014. The bill passed the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 245 - 182 and was largely along party lines.[14]
Keystone Pipeline Amendment
Davis voted against House Amendment 69, which would have amended HR 3 to "require that the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, in consultation with the Department of Homeland Security, conduct a study of the vulnerabilities of the Keystone XL pipeline to a terrorist attack and certify that necessary protections have been put in place." The amendment failed on May 22, 2013, with a vote of 176 - 239 and was largely along party lines.[14]
Davis voted against HR 624 - the CISPA (2013). The bill passed the House on April 18, 2013, with a vote of 288 - 127. The bill would allow federal intelligence agencies to share cybersecurity intelligence and information with private entities and utilities.[15] The bill was largely supported by Republicans, but divided the Democratic Party.[14]
Davis voted in support of HR 1960 - the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014. The bill passed the House on June 14, 2013, with a vote of 315 - 108. Both parties were somewhat divided on the vote.[14]
Farm bill
On January 29, 2014, the U.S. House approved the Federal Agriculture Reform and Risk Management Act of 2013, H.R. 2642, also known as the Farm Bill.[16] The bill passed by a vote of 251-166. The nearly 1,000-page bill reformed and continued various programs of the Department of Agriculture through 2018. The $1 trillion bill expanded crop insurance for farmers by $7 billion over the next decade and created new subsidies for rice and peanut growers that would kick in when prices drop.[17][18] However, cuts to the food stamp program cut an average of $90 per month for 1.7 million people in 15 states.[18] Davis voted with 161 other Republican representatives in favor of the bill.
2014 Budget
On January 15, 2014, the Republican-run House approved H.R. 3547, a $1.1 trillion spending bill to fund the government through September 30, 2014.[19][20] The House voted 359-67 for the 1,582-page bill, with 64 Republicans and three Democrats voting against the bill.[20] The omnibus package included 12 annual spending bills to fund federal operations.[21] It increased the paychecks of federal workers and military personnel by 1 percent, increased Head Start funding for early childhood education by $1 billion, reduced funding to the Internal Revenue Service and the Environmental Protection Agency, and protected the Affordable Care Act from any drastic cuts. Davis voted with the majority of the Republican party in favor of the bill.[19]
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
On September 30, 2013, the House passed a final stopgap spending bill before the shutdown went into effect. The bill included a one-year delay of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate and would have also stripped the bill of federal subsidies for congressional members and staff. It passed through the House with a vote of 228-201.[22] At 1 a.m. on October 1, 2013, one hour after the shutdown officially began, the House voted to move forward with going to a conference. In short order, Sen. Harry Reid rejected the call to conference.[23] Davis voted to approve the stopgap spending bill that would have delayed the individual mandate.[24]
The shutdown finally ended on October 16, 2013, when the House took a vote on HR 2775 after it was approved by the Senate. The bill to reopen the government lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funded the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[25] The House passed the legislation shortly after the Senate, by a vote of 285-144, with all 144 votes against the legislation coming from Republican members. Davis voted for HR 2775.[26]
Pay during government shutdown
Davis said on October 1, 2013, via Twitter that "As long as the government remains shutdown, I will not accept a paycheck - I urge all Members of Congress to join me."[27]
Morton Memos Prohibition
Davis voted in favor of House Amendment 136 - Prohibits the Enforcement of the Immigration Executive Order. The amendment was adopted by the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 224 - 201. The purpose of the amendment as stated on the official text is to "prohibit the use of funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the Morton Memos." These memos would have granted administrative amnesty to certain illegal aliens residing in the United States. The vote largely followed party lines.[14]
Healthcare Reform Rules
Davis voted in favor of House Amendment 450 - Requires Congressional Approval for Any Rules Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The amendment was adopted by the House on August 2, 2013, with a vote of 227-185. The amendment requires all changes to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act be approved by Congress before taking effect. The vote was largely along party lines.[14]
Keep the IRS Off Your Healthcare Act
Davis voted in favor of HR 2009 - Keep the IRS Off Your Healthcare Act of 2013. The bill passed through the House on August 2, 2013, with a vote of 232-185. The bill would prevent the IRS and Treasury Secretary from enforcing the powers provided to them in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The vote largely followed party lines.[14]
Social issues
Amash amendment
Davis voted in favor of House Amendment 413 - Prohibits the National Security Agency from Collecting Records Under the Patriot Act. The amendment failed on July 4, 2013, by a vote of 205-217. The amendment would have prohibited the collection of records by the National Security Agency under the Patriot Act. Both parties were split on the vote.[14]

Coal-fired power plants
Davis and Reps. John Shimkus (R) and William Enyart (D) criticized President Obama's plans announced June 25, 2013 to make sharp cuts in carbon emissions by using the federal Environmental Protection Agency to impose tougher restrictions on coal-fired power plants.[29] The three congressmen harshly criticized the stricter rules proposed by Obama as job-killers that will "needllessly spike electricity costs for consumer."[29]
Campaign themes
According to Davis' website, his campaign themes included:
- Jobs: "Government doesn't create jobs which means Congress should get out of the way of business owners and let them do their jobs."
- Taxes: ."..we must create a simpler, fairer tax system that ensures everyone pays their fair share and makes America a more attractive place for companies to invest and create jobs."
- Healthcare: ."..believes in a market-based approach that provides not only choice in health care for those who are insured, but will address the needs of the uninsured of our country..."[30]
Davis ran for re-election to the U.S. House in 2014. He defeated Michael Firsching and Erika Harold in the Republican primary on March 18, 2014.[5] The general election took place November 4, 2014.
According to a Washington Post article in December 2012, Davis is one of the 10 most vulnerable incumbents in 2014.[31] Davis is a member of the National Republican Congressional Committee's Patriot Program. The program is designed to assist vulnerable Republican incumbents heading into the 2014 election.[32] He has also been listed by the House Majority PAC as a target in 2014.[33][34][35]

- See also: Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress)
The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a four-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have personally benefited from their tenure as public servants.
It consists of four different metrics pioneered by the Government Accountability Institute:
- Changes in Net Worth
- The K-Street Metric
- The Donation Concentration Metric
- The Stock Oversight and Trades Metric
PGI: Net worth
Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Davis's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $85,020 and $405,000. That averages to $245,010, which is lower than the average net worth of Republican representatives in 2012 of $6,956,438.47. Davis ranked as the 334th most wealthy representative in 2012.[52] Between 2011 and 2012, Davis' calculated net worth[53] decreased by an average of 11 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[54]

Comments about Truvativ XX 80 BCD Chainring:
I suppose that a chainring this small should probably be made out of something harder, like steel. But it's a lightweight component, so the tradeoff is having to replace pretty often. At this price, it's not too bad.

"Dear Dr. Hadlock & Staff -
Thank you for all the great care and support. You have given me the confidence to achieve my goals in life...
Thanks for everything!
See you soon,
— Amy, New York
"Dr. Hadlock,
Words cannot express our thankfulness for the work & support you have given Aaron. He is now able to smile at the world with both sides of his face!
Thank you so much,
—Aaron's Family, Georgia
"with an incredible amount of skill… through hours of the most delicate surgeries imaginable, a nerve was transplanted from his lower leg area, and later a muscle from his thigh – he had a bionic face, and what a beautiful face it was. Combined with a generous supply of love and talent from therapist Mara Robinson, they fixed it! They made the smile return… and supplied an every day endless amount of happiness to him and hence directly to our entire family…"
— Major, Minnesota
"I would like to thank you for your critical support during this most difficult recovery process ... I can finally see a glimpse of the proverbial light at the end of this journey. I'd like to thank you, Mara, for her physical and emotional support throughout all of this time, and thank you, Dr. Hadlock, for your continued care and the professional expertise that have led to a greater quality of life... for the first time, in a very long time, I didn't cringe when I looked in the mirror and saw my former self staring back at me. For the first time in a very long time, my eye that cries shed its first tear of joy. Thank you both for making all of this bearable... My gratitude runs deep. May God bless you!"
— Lucia, Massachusetts
"I feel that as a result of my illness I had a lot of experiences in my recovery that left me with questions about what steps were up to me as part of my recovery, and what hope I had for the long-term.
I really felt I wanted to believe there was a path to further my recovery but I couldn't find a source to help me find that path. And when I found Dr. Hadlock, she said, at my initial visit, 'your song isn't over.' She filled me with hope and made me feel like I had found a home to help me further my recovery."

- Don't complain about lack of options. You've got to pick a few when you do multiple choice. Those are the breaks.
- Feel free to suggest poll ideas if you're feeling creative. I'd strongly suggest reading the past polls first.
- This whole thing is wildly inaccurate. Rounding errors, ballot stuffers, dynamic IPs, firewalls. If you're using these numbers to do anything important, you're insane.
this would work if we only didit try so hard to babyproof the whole nation. stupid is what stupid does and eventually the really stupid ones get into the Darwin awards and help the clensing of the gene pool. But with stupid politicians at the helm trying to Politically correct the nanny state they are trying to create it kinda provides assylum fo all retards
That's not how it's done. We don't say we are smarter than someone from the 1700s because we can drive better than they can. Only today's stupid make such comparisons so they can feel better about being stupid. The guy failing basic piloting skills may laugh at us, but mainly because he knows he's stupider, so it's about ego, not intelligence. I'm not smarter than Samuel Clements or Shakespeare, or Isaac Newton, but I know how to work a computer better than any of them. So I can always think of myself as smarter if it makes me feel better.
The dumbest human alive today is much more intelligent than Joe Average in the 10th century (ymmv...).
I don't think that's true at all. It may be true that the dumbest human alive today knows more than Joe Average of the 10th century. It may even be true that because of poor nutrition while growing up the average 10th century person was less intelligent than the average person today. But I doubt the human capacity for intelligence is much greater today than it was 1,000 years ago.

Does the school never call and tell them their child is sick and they need to come pick them up? Stop by and pick up milk on the way home? These are all things I have had to use my car for, most of them in the last week, and public transportation would not have been a remotely viable option.
Disagree completely. Jefferson et all were absolutely correct when they considered the public to be the best watchers of the public good - because when things affect people directly, they pay attention.
The problems we face now have much more to do with corporations being able to pay enough to soak the airwaves with propaganda. The phrase "nanny state" is often a good indicator of the success of this propaganda - it means that people are blaming the poor for what the government's doing rather than the rich and powerful who are most often ignoring the best interests of the poor and middle class as much as possible.

It's not that we're car centric, it's that we're gently anti social and cars enable that.
Not seriously anti-social, despite what the anti-gun psychotics, or the pro-healthcare movement think. But it is gentle, and it is socially pervasive.
We don't want public transportation. We don't want to live in cities.
Yes, there are younger, highly socialized demographics that crave urban areas...public transportation, a new restaurant every night. A small, 'simple' apartment. But oddly enough that isn't a demographic majority here, despite some interesting redistricting implications.
Your fairly typical run-of-the-mill American wants to live
We want to sleep in a gentle cul-de-sac where it's quiet, there's no highway noise, and we can only see 3-4 neighbors houses.
We want to choose who we interact with, when we interact, and go home to our family and lawn. We feel safer there.
And that...is why the cars are a necessity. Because they give us an hour alone each day that we can't get at work, in our cubicles, at home with a wife/husband/kids/dogs. The car supports the suburban lifestyle that is not economical to service with public transit. And when it is economical -- we don't want to use it anyway.
Public transportation is creepy as hell. There's always a crack dealer, a hooker, a crazy guy who talks to himself and tries to talk
But even though it's their right -- it makes a lot of us just slightly uncomfortable.
Just uncomfortable enough that we'll move to the damned suburbs and take the car instead of the bus or train to deal with this shit. Yes, we would rather pay several thousand dollars a year in lease/loan/insurance/gas/upkeep than ride public transport. Yes, it makes poor economic sense. Guess what -- people trade money for happyness and quality of life. This is an example of the choice some people make.
Yes, there's millions of you that have no problem whatsoever with the situations I've just described.
But there's enough of us willing to say "fuck it, I'm not going to risk getting stabbed by someone whose mentally unwell just to get to work".
The car is our sanctuary, solitude, and our illusion of safety where we ignore the millimorts per mile and think we're safe from the psychotics in public transportation.
And to the people who call this antisocial or perverse... well... screw you. My illusorary peace of mind has value too.
Yeah, it has absurd implications for gas and oil consumption, for the environment. But that's really largely moot -- the problem with commuters aren't the cars. It's that employers require you in the office 5+ days a week in an era with home computers and VPNs.
People gripe about the suburbs, and yes, they use more gas than people in a city

The dumbest human alive todsy is certainly not more inteligent than an average in the 10th century.
I even would chalange the idea that they know "more" (looking towards the US education system e.g.)
They only know DIFFERENT things.
Can you cross the atlantic in a sailing ship? How many people do you know who can?
For a typical 10th century Viking that was a no brainer.
Can you forge sword? You know one who can?
Can you navigate by the sun under fog? Using a crystal? Did you even know that is easy? Do you know one who can?
Can you navigate by the stars?
Can you bake your own bread? Brew your own beer? Build a house on your own (in a few days/weeks)? Build a boat? Make your own tools?
Do you know when to bring out seeds? When the best time is to harvest? Can you forcast weather for a single day at least?
Can you provide simple first aid? Clean a wound? Sew a wound?
Can you make a fire from nothing? Can you hunt a deer? Open it? Skin it?
Should I continue
Mensa != Intelligence (Score:4, Insightful)by Roger W Moore (538166) on Thursday December 13, 2012 @01:26AM (#42269579) Journal
I think that probably most of variation in intelligence, as measured by Mensa in logic tests, doesn't come from genetics, though.
I have strong doubts that Mensa's logic tests measure anything that an intelligent person would regard as intelligence.
You must not supplement your coffee with additives. My experimentation has uncovered sugar, milk, and some forms of alcohol may be added without absolutely ruining the drink. Future experiments with protein additives are planned. I'm not sure why, but my intuition tells me that powered bacon should be next.
