China's official newspaper tells India to put on its big boy pants (http://english.people.com.cn/90001/90780/91343/6783357.html)

India is unamused (http://www.hindu.com/2009/10/15/stories/2009101560441000.htm)

...and warns China this week to stop helping Pakistan

Economist editorial (http://www.economist.com/world/asia/displayStory.cfm?story_id=14744905)

Hence the People’s Daily’s strong words. China may feel that now is a good time to get a border settlement on its terms. After all, India grows economically stronger by the day. And recent signs of American readiness to appease China will have encouraged China to think that America will not do much to back India. Before his first trip to China as president in mid-November, Barack Obama declined to meet the Dalai Lama in Washington. China’s polemics are also designed to resonate with India’s smaller neighbours, who have their own gripes about its overbearing style. They also enjoy China’s material support. The part of the former kingdom of Jammu & Kashmir controlled by Pakistan, for example, is criss-crossed with Chinese infrastructure projects.

It'd be nice if, you know, any US news media at all would cover things like this instead of how many times Jon Gosselin burped.

It's mutually assured destruction. China cannot ruin us financially without destroying their own economy.

Besides, they like getting rich off cheap American dollars funding torrents of Chinese exports. The current situation is tailor-made for China - any change would hurt their economy or the pseudo-state corporations that actually run China.

Lum

China has at last count, over $1.5 trillion invested in US securities. There's literally no where else China COULD put that money. Few economies in the world HAVE $1.5 trillion. They would either take an enormous risk dumping it in smaller economies, inflate their own currency by removing it from circulation (thus neatly destroying their entire export-driven economy) or drive up the value of whatever they invest in in the process of plowing that much money into it, diluting their holdings.

There's also the small matter that an attempt by China to cash out securities would, in the process of collapsing the market, also destroy China's invested wealth as they attempt to divest (it's not possible to simply push a button and say 'sell $1.5 trillion in bonds').

It literally is mutually assured destruction, economically speaking. Besides, the Chinese response to the economic collapse was identical to our own; state-sponsored "stimulus" investment. They just spent a great deal more of it.

Also, I think China and its government can be tinkered with to make a better state than India. India, on the other hand is a religious mess, and that's obvious, but worse, it is deep, deep in the mire of a political tradition that does not look forward, does not plan well for the future, and is pulled in many directions by elite factions. China is pulled, too, but there are fewer disagreements and fewer factions that can stonewall against changes, good and bad. That, in a lichee nutshell, is my armchair political theory in this dispute.

That was part of a nuclear weapons test named Upshot-Knothole:

Test: Grable
Time: 15:30 25 May 1953 (GMT)
08:30 25 May 1953 (local)
Location: Nevada Test Site (NTS), Area 5
Test Height and Type: 524 Foot Airburst
Yield: 15 kt

This is the first test of a nuclear artillery shell (Grable for "gun") - the 280 mm AFAP (artillery fired atomic projectile). The shot was an artillery delivered airburst. The shell travelled 11,000 yards before detonation which occurred 86 feet west, 137 feet south, and 24 feet above the designated burst point. The 280 mm shell was also a "gun" weapon in another sense, it used a "gun-type" fission weapon assembly method like the Little Boy bomb. This was in fact the first test of a gun-type bomb (and second detonation - Hiroshima not being a test). The predicted yield was 14 kt.

The Mk-9 280 mm (11.02 inch) shell was 54.4 inches long, weighed 803 lb, and used oralloy as the fissile material. Air burst detonation was arranged by a time fuze. The Mk-9 was fired by an enormous 85 ton artillery piece. The gun had a muzzle velocity of 2060 ft/sec, and a range of up to 20 miles.

More like 30 years old, and "lolololol" is netspeak for "Laugh Out Loud" only its mashed multiple times like say "A 13 year old girl would do"

But that is ok, I wouldn't expect you to understand all the vagrieties of the "Fancy calculatin' machine" on your first go.

Ahahaha, I know what it means. I find it funny to type it for exactly that reason, because I'm not a 13 year old girl. It seems to bother you quite a lot, huh?

English is not your first language, right?

No stank, the English language which I write roughly 300 times more eloquently than yourself could never, ever be my first language. Good job on pointing me out though. I speak martian.

And duck.

Quack quack.

Well, you have the same sort of problems understanding me as other people whose first language isn't english. But you might just be really stupid. I'm pretty sure you're ESL, though. It's nothing to be ashamed of, it would just explain some of your issues.

I don't have any issues. You may. For instance you project. A lot.

One of Kubrick's wonderful masterpieces.

Though I knew what Bush I meant, I always found his reference to a "New World Order" uncomfortably and ironically similar to the Third German Reich's Chancellor's "New Order." Bush I, being the man he was--having fought fascism, did not mean the same thing as that infamous Chancellor, but I wish he'd chosen a different expression.

This is the man who used Crusade. Unironically. When Talking about the Middle East. In a Highly Publicized Speech. As President of the United States

Nuance got hit with a nuke and then the remains were shot in the head with a .50 caliber machine gun. Repeatedly...

Wait wait. I said Bush I. I don't think that "Crusade" ever publicly passed his lips. In contrast to his idiot savant son, Bush I knew a little about history and the sensitivities of groups. Not always, but he was often Presidential, though I disagreed with him.

Only a total dullard would think that "invasion" is the only thing the US can do to stop the world from spinning out of control. I bet that's what our dumbass president thinks, too. We are so very fucked.

Y'know, this is the second time Stank has channeled my thoughts from an earlier time...cuz I had the exact same thoughts during the invasion of Iraq.

Sometimes I get the feeling Stank is a closet Bush skeptic, and his Fruedian slip keeps flashing us.

Nah, I just heard the name once or twice. Thought he was some troll of note from the original SC or something. I was expecting some verby vaudevillian veteran vigilante nicknamed V to d'of his hat and serve you all your asses regularly with stellar quips and razor wit.

Then I see this lil WoW kiddy trying to do debate, and I just wanted to pull his pig-tails and steal his lunch money.

The name didnt click straight away.

You know, I remember that vividly. I was ashamed for many reasons: that such an embarrassing thing had happened to him, that the media were so merciless in keeping it in front of us--an early clusterfox--but finally for the lack of general sympathy for a fact beyond anyone's control: a seriously malfunctioning body.

I lost nearly 10 pounds in one week during a business trip. On day 1, I ate something that gave me horrible diarrhea. For a week, I could only drink water or tea, because anything more substantial would be a very demanding problem in an hour or less. All day business meetings, interspersed with train travel permitted no chance to do anything for myself except more tea. Finally, returning to our base city, I went to the hotel doctor (thank goddess for big hotels in foreign lands!) and was restored.

So, yes, not Presidential, but very human. But when he had control of himself and his body, he was Presidential, unlike his son.
