our main rubbish bin is collected weekly but the recycle bin is fortnightly...is everyone's the same???
Edited by batfink: 8/7/2013 05:49:05 PM Yes mate general waste bin weekly recycle fortnight. I think most councils have the same collection cycle but one thing I have noticed over the years "bin" sizes are varied depending the council, I wonder how they come to that decision.

You actually believe that? :lol: Hey rusty. I followed up on that statistician who dismissed the right v left wing IQ research. I noted that he is heavily religious and is a signatory to the very unscientific Cornwall Alliance. http://www.cornwallalliance.org/Edited by ozboy: 9/7/2013 11:38:41 AM Where does it say he's heavily religious and a signatory to this peculiar alliance? Also being a signatory to something does not preclude some from having an expert opinion, especially when they possess a phd from a noted institution. I'm not sure what the fuck statistics and left/right wing ideology has to do with religion anyway, you're a strange one.

I don't need a religious leader telling me what and how to think and yet I have come to believe in conservative politics. How do you explain that? Meanwhile plenty of the lefties I've met treat their beliefs as quasi-religion - their socialism, communism, Islamophilia, anti-Americanism and anti-capitalism, global warming alarmism, anti-Israel...umm...ism and yes, their atheism. They treat all these as unshakeable dogmas and are unwilling to broaden their views. Ozboy, I don't know what kind of bad experiences you've had with members of the clergy but you can't let your irrational hatred of religion underpin your views on just about everything. It's unhealthy. What happened to live and let live?

I'm yet to see any evidence this Briggs character is leading a "double life", nor works anywhere near a laboratory. You're missing the point. Its about congruency of your mental constructs. Laboratory is metaphorical - it refers to practicing science in work hours, then practising religion which involves the absence of reason, outside work. rusty wrote:Quote:The statistician is William Briggs and if you evaluate his various blog notes, he is died in the wool religious.

The profound, inherent, and equal dignity of every human life 2. Marriage as a union of one man and one woman 3. Religious liberty and the inherent freedom of human beings As Orthodox, Catholic, and Evangelical Christians, we take seriously the Biblical admonition to respect and obey those in authority. Because we honor justice and the common good, we will fully and ungrudgingly render to Caesar what is Caesar’s. But under no circumstances will we render to Caesar what is God’s.Subsequently, there is the Manhattan Declaration on Climate Change: Manhattan Declaration on Climate Change “Global warming” is not a global crisis We, the scientists and researchers in climate and related fields, economists, policymakers, and business leaders, assembled at Times Square, New York City, participating in the 2008 International Conference on Climate Change,
Resolving that scientific questions should be evaluated solely by the scientific method;
Affirming that global climate has always changed and always will, independent of the actions of humans, and that carbon dioxide (CO2) is not a pollutant but rather a necessity for all life................ ............Now, therefore, we recommend – [size=7]That world leaders reject the views expressed by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ........... That all taxes, regulations, and other interventions intended to reduce emissions of CO2 be abandoned forthwith[/size].He is also a signatory to a letter sent to Fox News, supporting climate change denial http://www.landandwaterusa.com/GlobalWarming/2010GlobalWarming/10-14LetterToMrRogerEAiles.htmAnd regarding Briggs' further lack of scientific practice he has contributed his time to The Heartland Institute - one of the most well known fronts for big oil/coal that denies the overwhelming science of anthropogenic climate change http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/William_M._Briggsrusty wrote:Quote:He decided to a dumb thing and question the statistics to do with a particular paper on climate change, on another particular scientific blog site.

Yeah, I will take his critique with a grain of salt, considering the paper didn't suit his ideology, he is a mathematician not a psychologist and he is not involved in journalistic peer review. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peer_reviewPeer review is the evaluation of work by one or more people of similar competence to the producers of the work (peers). It constitutes a form of self-regulation by qualified members of a profession within the relevant field. Peer review methods are employed to maintain standards of quality, improve performance, and provide credibility. In academia peer review is often used to determine an academic paper's suitability for publication.
