  4. yeah...looking at sports streaks is kinda stupid. No team ever came back from three games down. That same team hadn't won since 1918. Oh...and I can't believe there are AZ fans in here...god they're embarassing...they aren't even worth the traffic disruption or new stadium...but I guess i'm not one to talk...both my bay area teams are having shitty shitty seasons.

  9. I'm just sayin' what I see I think you could double the number of troops in Iraq and still have problems...control the violence?? I think there would be an insurgent problem no matter how many troops you throw in there
  10. Well...being on in the draftable age group I (and most peeps around here with me) believe it is BS scare tactics IMO the military as a whole is kicking ass and there are plenty of volunteers (half my graduating HS class is either in an academy or enlisted...no shortage of peeps) and also tons of people (suprising to me) at ASU are making the military a career for either medical, engineering, or just straight up ROTC. So I don't belive for a second the bleak outlook everyone is saying about our military.

  14. wait so starbucks is bad because they use savvy business practices?? riiiight...first it was the free trade arguement, and now that starbucks changed on that one the evil starbucks crowd has to go to the evil corporate invader issue. I love starbucks and have it waaay too much (i'm a caffeine freak...I have a mocha right now)...my only beef with them is the no free wifi...wtf
  15. Doesn't suprise me of course if you hang around ASU those numbers become inflated :horny:
  16. (to news mod: I would regard this as a normal news story, but seeing as it is election season I also see the political side...feel free to move) Flu Vaccine...Read the Whole thing! How the vaccine works: Influenza vaccine is produced by growing the virus in eggs. The virus is killed and processed to create the vaccine, which is given by injection under the skin. The body then produces antibodies to the virus over the next two to four weeks. If the immunized person then comes into contact with the influenza virus, the antibodies attack and kill the virus before it has a chance to cause infection. The vaccine contains the 3 most likely strains to be active during the "flu season" Why the shortage: Almost half of the nation's flu vaccine will not be delivered this year. Chiron, a major manufacturer of flu vaccine, will not be distributing any influenza vaccine this flu season. Chiron was to make 46-48 million dosesvaccine for the United States. Chiron is a British company. Recently British health officials stopped Chiron from distributing and making the vaccine when inspectors found unsanitary conditions in the labs. Some lots of the vaccine were recalled and destroyed. Why is our vaccine made in the UK and not the US? The major pharmaceutical companies in the US provided almost 90% of the nation's flu vaccine at one time. They did this despite a very low profit margin for the product. Basically, they were doing us a favor. In the late 80's a man from North Carolina who had received the vaccine got the flu. The strain he caught was one of the strains in that year's vaccine made by a US company. What did he do? He sued and he won. He was awarded almost $5 million! After that case was appealed and lost, most US pharmaceutical companies stopped making the vaccine. The liability outweighed the profit margin. Since UK and Canadian laws prohibit such frivolous law suits UK and Canadian companies began selling the vaccine in the US. By the way...the lawyer that represented the man in the flu shot law suit was a young ambulance chaser by the name of John Edwards.
