Re: The Race Relations/Diversity/Equality Thread
Why did he lose sponsors and everyone condemn him when it's none of anyone's business? That was likewise no one's business. You are just too used to growing up in a tabloid and reality TV world where you seem to think because others put it out there, either themselves or by the media, that it makes...

Re: The Race Relations/Diversity/Equality Thread
1. You're missing the point that her weight, what she weighs, what she eats, how often she does or does not exercise, who sees her or who doesn't, is NONE OF HIS BUSINESS. NONE. It matters not one iota that she works on TV. 2. If you , and he, really want to make a difference in the lives of young ...

Re: The Race Relations/Diversity/Equality Thread
Here's a blog that I read on this very topic, Cezen. About Obesity and Bullying I believe that standing up for herself was a good choice to make, but I also am not sure his letter constitutes "bullying." Was it ridiculous for him to send the letter, ESPECIALLY without knowing the facts? Y...

Re: The Race Relations/Diversity/Equality Thread
the guy judged her because she hadn't lost weight over the years, he is concerned with the issue of obesity in the US, and he thought that her status influenced viewers - young girls particularly. 1. Her status is hardly as far-reaching and negative as basically every commercial, print-ad, TV show,...

Re: The Race Relations/Diversity/Equality Thread
Did she ASK for his so-called help? No? Then how is her weight his business? I mean, if it bothers him that damn much, he could practice the age-old art of looking at something else. How dare she go out and give people the idea that overweight people can be professionals who do their jobs? What a h...

The movie about the tire that rolls around killing people with its mind and falls in love with a woman it was peeping(tom) on.
Do...I...really need to flesh together any more words concerning this movie? Whatever you're thinking. However you're judging it.
You are correct.

Re: "Turn him loose as a theorist..."
Was the piece I quoted not a factual condensed-description? In what way would you have presented a summary of what they did in the experiment to non-physicists? 1. It was condensed, but it was also non-factual. Here's how lay science-reporting should be done: http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn2...
