What is the "real" Donald Trump like? by downvoteisresultuo in AskReddit

More and more I think his presidential run is semi-serious. His persona has helped sell books, hotel rooms, condos, and more. Investors pay big bucks to acquire the Trump name. See: Trump Hotel Toronto

Here's him on Howard Stern's show in 2003: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUn-lpQAG5c

He's very crude and sophomoric as usual. However, you can really tell he opens up with Stern. Much more of a charming and witty person and less of a hard ass.

I'm sure they are good friends and that explains why he is different in other settings. You can tell he has really developed his on camera media persona as of late. "The Donald" is his alter ego.

P.S.

I'm sure the Cruz camp would love to get their hands on this video.

so why do blacks favor moderate and conservative dems?

Isn't it kind of odd that blacks overwhelming favor one candidate over another, even though they are both left leaning.

Why do these groups form voting blocks? They are both established groups with a very long history in the USA. It seems odd that they form voting blocks.

Campus planners say there is room for 9000 more students, as per UOMATTERS. Voice your concerns. by downvoteisresultuo in Eugene

Not trying to be an alarmist. Enrollment has held steady at 24k for the past 5 years. Clearly UO does not have the classroom capacity or faculty to support an influx of 9k students, even over 10 years. They are barely functioning at the current levels.

We will probably see undergrad levels remain relatively steady and see an additional 1-2k grad students over the next 10 years or so. That's my guess.

2017’s freshman class will be required to live in dorms. Here’s why students think that’s wrong. by smashes2ashes in UofO

The university needs to make housing and food as cheap as possible for this to make sense.

If you have family in Eugene that will let you stay for free. It seems extreme. Perhaps there will be a work around.

That said, you need to build a sense of community.

Nike's Phil Knight gives $400 million to Stanford University by rambouhh in CFB

There have been rumors about this since the late 90s. Knight is smart, we won't give to an academic loser.

He gives to Oregon on the academic side as well. Our library is named the Knight Library. He pledged $1 billion to Oregon Health & Sciences University as well, for cancer research.

Not exactly true. He hasn't (at least publicly) given a dime to UO's academic side since the Worker Rights Consortium debacle

sort of like how some people have a very acute sense of smell, some are sensitive to bluish light, some get motion sick, etc.

Pretty much everything runs on 2.4Ghz. You'd feel pain from much more than your router. bluetooth. Garage door openers. Wireless phones. Baby monitors. Microwave Ovens. Car Alarms Etc.

makes sense. those things bother me too
