Can someone unban lowing? I want to hear his expert opinion on this. Can we also get in contact with GS and ATG?President Barack Obama is expected to lay out his principles for immigration reform in a speech in Las Vegas today that will include a potentially quicker path to citizenship than the bipartisan plan a group of senators unveiled earlier this week.
The president will offer some new details about the White House's immigration reform plan, which expands on a blueprint it released in 2011, a senior administration official told ABC News. But for now Obama will stop short of offering his own piece of legislation because of the progress made by the Senate "Gang of Eight."
Like the senators' plan, Obama's proposal calls for a pathway to citizenship for many of the 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the U.S. The senators' plan would grant "probationary legal status" immediately to eligible undocumented immigrants, but would not allow them to apply for permanent legal status, or a green card, until the border is deemed to be secure. Think of that as a trigger system.
(a) You cannot grant citizenship to illegal immigrants ... it is a simple explanation. Non-citizen immigrants work low paying jobs in America because if they do not work these jobs, then they will starve. Unlike American citizens, they are not eligible for social services that provide the equivalent of $15 an hour.
Why do Americans not work these low paying jobs? Because, as a citizen, they qualify for social service benefits for NOT working ... lower class individuals in our society have a choice of either (1) sitting at home all day watching TV and raking in the equivalent of $15 an hour, or (2) working in landscaping, agriculture, house cleaning, etc. for about $8 an hour. Most of them (say 95%) choose #1.
If America grants all these immigrants citizenship, then they grant them eligibility for all these social services and they too will choose #1 ... which then will create a vacuum for a new generation of illegal immigration.
(b) Yet, you cannot keep illegal immigrants in the shadows ... they need to have a resident status that is NOT citizenship. There is far too much abuse, oppression, and exploitation to ignore this very real problem.

I wasn't looking at AMD ... but (first) isn't this the correct comparison on your first card?
http://www.hwcompare.com/8241/geforce-g … n-hd-6850/
The AMD is showing (at most) 15% improvement, and the card above is 30% overclocked from the 406GTX used in the hwcompare numbers (this is nVidia's 2nd generation of the 460 GTX, with core clock changed from 675 to 867, and memory clock increased from 900 to 1012). So ... is there much of a difference?

Seriously, I'm even stating that it is dang near impossible to come up with a "probably correct idea" simply because of two things:nukchebi0 wrote:
I thought you meant have an educated and probably correct idea, not know with certainty. I do agree, then.
Oklahoma State played and beat more top 25 teams and teams with winning records. They played 12 FBS teams and 10 BCS conference teams, whereas Alabama played only 11 FBS teams and 9 BCS conference teams. Their conference opponents have a better combined record than Alabama's despite playing in a round robin. Even if we can't conclude for certain, it seems like we have a very good idea which of the two team' schedules was more demanding.
(1) The conferences are mostly insulated from one another. Teams play almost exclusively within their conferences and their win-loss records are primarily based on how they do within their conference - at most, a quality football team will play only one quality opponent outside their conference and any others are just weak teams that are gimme's to their win column.
(2) Conferences are just not equal as far as their overall strength.
But, the classic formula that everyone uses for strength of schedule makes the fundamental and incorrect assumption that all games and all conferences are equal as far as strength and then just uses that simplistic calculation based on win-loss records. That's just not true.
Conferences are not equal, and the teams that are played are not equal. So, putting every team on a level playing field and then using simple W-L calculations is a flawed approach ... otherwise, every conference would produce an equal amount of NFL talent every year.
And this year, humorously, we see just how flawed the calculations can become. Does anyone really believe that the 10 toughest schedules in all of college football are played by the 10 teams of the Big 12? Seriously, that's how this year's Sagarin's SOS numbers are working out ... so, only the Big 12 has tough schedules, and no other team .... riiiiiiight .... the numbers come out this way because these teams primarily play one another.
No. I stand by my statement. Alabama and Okie State played different teams ... it is impossible to know which team played a more difficult schedule. You can make educated guesses, or you can come up with some sort of computer-based geek measurement, but it is impossible to truly know who had a more difficult schedule.nukchebi0 wrote:
There isn't any way to know that Oklahoma State played a more difficult schedule? Do you want to try that sentence again?OrangeHound wrote:
There is no way to know this ... however, the assumption is that an SEC conference schedule is a tougher schedule than a UT-Austin 10 conference schedule.nukchebi0 wrote:
Alabama played a weaker schedule.
But, I agree that a team should win their conference in order to qualify for playing for the national championship.
Alabama played an 8-game SEC schedule with four out-of-conference games (a top-25 Penn State and 3 scrubs)
Okie State played a 9-game Texas-10 schedule with three out-of-conference games (a weak Arizona and 2 scrubs)
Which is stronger?

Well, you can't blame the SEC ... the SEC and the ACC were behind a playoff system, and the other conferences rejected it.Roc18 wrote:
Like I said this is why I don't like the BCS. There should be a playoff system where these 2 prove that against all the other top teams and reach each other in a final match up instead of coaches and computers telling us they're the 2 best teams.
Leach is actually a good head coach ... he's got a lot of ethical issues which might get the NCAA up your butt, but his football acumen is strong.

I watched the game ... but, if it ends up an LSU-Bammer BCS game, every conference in the US will be screaming, particularly if a 1-loss Alabama wins.gurdeep wrote:
oh, in case u didnt see, it was 6-3 at the end of regulation. put them on a neutral field and let the 2 best teams play for the title
Bama lost at home due to Saban's incompetence. They had their chance. Let Okie or the ducks have a shot.
(Disclaimer - I hate everything about Alabama. I hate crimson, elephants, rammer jammer, ESPN commercials about Aabama, and especially the ocean ... because it has a tide).
But, at this point it is more likely that bammer and LSU rematch for the championship ... I'm an SEC fan, but that would be a really wrong championship game since they've already played.
