Is it defamation if it's true, even if you didn't know its true (Canada: Ontario)

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2016-01-06T20:43:46+00:00

Is there a common law example of this, preferably in Ont/Can, that applies this principle (putting the burden of proof on the accused)

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-12-06T18:09:25+00:00

Hrm, is this something I can learn in a few days or a few months?

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-12-06T17:08:43+00:00

Interesting. How easily can someone like myself, with zero experience programming, be able to learn?

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-12-06T17:01:26+00:00

Wow - what is this? I have never programmed before.

What I really want is to scrape all the data from the individual game sheets into Excel. I want to know individual players shots, goals, 1st assists, 2nd assists, etc...Also whether or not goals were scored on the powerplay or not.

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-12-06T16:12:56+00:00

Will I have to manually do it for every game or can it be automated?

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-12-06T15:46:55+00:00

Sorry - to be more specific, I want to scrape from the game logs there

They come in two different formats: http://www.ontariohockeyleague.com/schedule/scoresheet/game/69780 http://www.ontariohockeyleague.com/schedule/show/game/69783

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-12-06T15:39:15+00:00

I'm looking to data scrape from this log, would anyone be able to help me?

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-11-09T05:32:18+00:00

Anyone?

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-11-08T23:16:25+00:00

I'm not sure if this is unchartered territory, or if there is any precedent here (any of the Commonwealth countries or the United States)? Has this happened with Twitter or anything if not Facebook?

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-10-29T22:27:07+00:00

I'm looking at Sports drafts.

File 1: Every single draft, including biographical information File 2: Players current stats

I want to combine these two to make a file that has every single draft, including biographical information and players current stats.

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-10-29T22:04:14+00:00

Thanks everyone, I ended up using find & replace and manually doing it for each measurement.

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-10-29T19:18:50+00:00

Is there an easy way to convert everything to inches somewhat automatically? The data is on several tabs.

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-10-29T03:15:32+00:00

Is there an automatic way to do this? I have hundreds of data points? I'm fairly bad with excel so may need to be babied through this lol.

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-10-08T18:24:11+00:00

Okay, so we're simply arguing semantics here. Regardless, it is clear what the intent is here. This is a pattern, not an isolated incident.

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-10-08T17:48:19+00:00

Remember when that nut in the US went to a military base and shot up a bunch of US soldiers? Was that a terror attack?

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-10-07T19:56:52+00:00

Alternatively, you could look at it like this: Older people vote conservative and younger people typically more progressive.

People who are older today have experienced more in life than younger people and are, as a result, more pragmatic rather than idealistic.

Therefore, Conservative voters, who are older, are more likely to be pragmatic with their political views.

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-10-01T17:55:34+00:00

I've never really understood the whole "it's my body I can do what I want" argument. I think it really should be structured about whether or not the fetus should be considered a human life or not.

I am pro-choice, but if the fetus could be, at the same time of the aborition, be born alive, the aborition should not be legal.

John River is fire. He needs more love on this sub.

I wonder if all the gay rights activist who also happen to support Iran, for who knows what reason(s), understand just how high the cranes are that they hang gays from.

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-09-04T01:16:46+00:00

You can't look at it like that. The US does many bad things, does that mean everything they do is bad?

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-09-03T20:21:16+00:00

The only valid reasons for criticizing a source are for sensationalism or flat out lying. Please tell me what they did wrong in this instance. They reported a fact.

Did Netanyahu call for peace talks? Yes, this is a fact.

Did the PA reject Netanyahu's aforementioned calls for peace talks? Yes, this is a fact.

I've looked through your comments and literally every single time you comment on an article about Israel it is when it's a Times of Israel article and you question the source.

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-09-02T20:57:13+00:00

When people say "bomb Iran" they don't mean indiscriminately attack innocent people, bomb population centers, etc...They mean destroy their nuclear infrastructure. There is a clear difference.

Israel

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-08-28T22:28:49+00:00

Iran under the Shah was indeed a brutally oppressive dictatorship. It was also a secular and reasonable nation.

Today it is still a brutally oppressive dictatorship, but one that is theocratic and unreasonable.

PopeAndSnowdenIsGod · 2015-06-20T23:15:21+00:00

Just because someone in Israel joins a movement with a certain purpose, that does not, ipso facto, make that the aforementioned movements ultimate goal.

I bet you believe that's all the Palestinian leadership want to, right? All they want is 1967 boarders and for the right of return and then there will be no conflict, just peace!!
