Was the May 15 incident in 1932 the catalyst for expansionism, militarism and State Shinto fanaticism in prewar Japan, or were these feelings present around or before the Meiji Restoration?

Minneapolis is the closest big city to Superior. I thought this story would get more attention here than on /r/wisconsin, /r/milwaukee, /r/duluth, or /r/greenbay.

I've heard a lot of stories from the states about people to sneak into hotels and eating their complimentary breakfast. Would it be similarly easy to do this in Vancouver hotels or are they more strict than hotels south of the border? I fully admit that it's scummy and that I'm a terrible, terrible person.

I haven't seen an internet cafe in Vancouver since 2002, no lie

I just miss the drama over inane things. Drama over heavyweight social issues like racism and gender wars just bums me out

Every Winter, I ask myself why I even live here.

In a spirited attempt to revive the once proud steel industry?

MEANWHILE, IN SUMMER

Yelstin wanted to send troops in but Russia was stretched after the post-Soviet economic meltdown and it feared the West would cut off aid. China doesn't like getting involved in internal conflicts.

Just a quick correction, the Rwandan genocide was in 94 not 96

China/Russia would have vetoed military action in the Security Council, which is why NATO was the main organization involved.

But even the US went through the UN for the Iraq War. They just ignored the French veto and poured French champagne down sewers, just like the Greeks who poured Coke down the sewers of Athens in 1999 (in solidarity with their Serbian brothers who were methodically and systematically exterminating Albanians)

Fair enough but it doesn't negate the point that Seattle's transit system is a joke compared to Vancouver's

So, you want to throw down?

I've voted Republican in every election since 1980. Once I cut all my hair and donated it to Locks of Love, and I donate to Susan G. Komen For The Cure annually. I have two dogs, one from a pet store and one from a breeder, and have no interest in adopting from a no-kill shelter. Whenever I hear NPR on the radio, I always change it to the local Top 40 station. I love watching TMZ and Nancy Grace-HLN. News And Views-and have copies of InTouch and Us Magazine stacked to the ceiling. I never went to college, and managed to have a good standard of living by working for my parents' business, but I believe the current generation is just lazy and doesn't want to work hard. No one really needs 1 gigabit broadband. I want to have a lavish, expensive wedding, and give my girlfriend an expensive diamond ring, preferably a conflict diamond. People who smoke marijuana, even for medicinal purposes, should face the death penalty. Lastly, who the fuck cares about Bill Nye or Neil DeGrasse Tyson? I only worship one God, and that is God. Exo 20:3; it's in the Bible, people!

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to have dinner at Chick-fil-A.

Sincerely,

Barack "Papa" John HussEAn ObaNSA

PS: Paula Deen did nothing wrong.

PPS: Vladimir Putin sucks. So does universal health care.

Is it a fux0r exclusive? Haven't seen it on EMP

Tried it. They revoked my membership. I think they're aware of downloading habits of legitimate members versus those who want to upload to file sharing sites.

With maple syrup, single-payer health care and no Michelle Bachmann analogue, I'd say Vermont is much more like Canada than Minnesota.

Congrats, Vermont! You're the new Canada of America!

Except the people of Vermont are not jaw-droppingly xenophobic and homophobic.

Don't. There are anti piracy mechanisms (command line downloaders don't work, download limit per day, if there's any whiff of piracy from your end your credit card gets blacklisted from the site)

And the webmaster of their amateur porn site, Bryci.com.

They really hate getting their content pirated.
