I try to be very careful with how I use words, often checking primary sources for definitions. Wikipedia is not perfect, but it is often written by experts with sources cited. The modern usage of words often tends to be distorted by both ignorance and Conservatism. <==Please read this paper from...

The solution to the option is to intentionally injure the QB by twisting his ankle?

I would just like to add that the SEC lost BOTH BCS bowl games last year. Also, please allow me to introduce the Null Hypothesis: The odds of an SEC team beating a Power-5 team is 50%. Until the Null Hypothesis has been disproven statistically, it should be considered correct.

I think they know the difference between the two terms (Neo-Darwinism vs Neo-Darwinian synthesis) and have been precise in their use. Nothing on their site suggests that they are misusing the terms as you suggest. I can only take them at their word.

This is my favorite proposal so far.

Third Way is against neo-Darwinism, intelligent design, and creationism. Third Way's work is part of modern evolutionary synthesis. Modern evolutionary synthesis includes all the new research as it is reviewed and accepted. We are in agreement, but disagreeing on the name for it. Third Way is...

I will quote from the links I provided because you did not read them: There is a difference between Mendelian genetics and population genetics. There is a difference between neo-Darwinism and neo-Darwinian synthesis (aka modern evolutionary synthesis).

The reason that Neo-Darwinism is incorrect is that it applied to the science before the discovery of population genetics. The term was coined in 1895 and was dead long before I was born. Neo-Darwinism is "still a thing" because the religionists need a strawman to attack (Mendelian genetics)...

Next thing you will be telling us that there was a time when you couldn't get wifi on the trolley or that you could only use your phone when it was plugged into a wall...

The part that it was "wrong" about was that it was warm between 950 and 1250 AD. Here's more from that article:

What "failures"? All global predictions are in line. Acceleration of deterioration has progressed faster than the models predicted (worse faster). This has much to due with many positive feedback mechanisms not being included in the model. There is no argument from the man-didn't-do-it side...

I just remembered that this forum has a handy ignore function. Time to test it out on the troll...

SHHHHHH!!!!;)

I'll answer this with a previous post:

I've said it before and I'll say it again: "Winning will not cure the corporate media bias." We could win everything 3 years in a row and ESPN would still have their 20 year contract with the SEC. Disney (the owner of ESPN) is contractually obligated to hype the SEC.

Our AD needs to cancel this series if the game can't be watched on campus. Unacceptable.

I'm worried about the personal fouls against our guys that don't get called and result in injuries. Duke and uGA are very dirty programs in my mind.

The article failed to look at total global temperatures. It talked exclusively about land surface temperatures and the Pacific ocean. You can't talk about the system as a whole and only consider part of the system. The total global energy balance is a simple energy balance equation ΔEnergy =...

What are the odds that they will actually get called for an offsides penalty this year for lining up between Freddie and JT?
