Avoid half-baked ideas!
2008-05-20 06:02:00 ome have half-baked ideas because their ideals are not heated up enough. The heat is on, due to both, the soaring temperatures and runaway rise in inflation, which is now at a 44-month high. However, the bulls don't seem to be bothered much about spi8 Vote(s)

Half-baked
2008-04-20 17:59:00 When you go around town, you’ll notice quite a few ongoing construction projects and new restaurants and coffee shops. There are more businesses registered with the Department of Trade & Industry, albeit mostly SMEs. It really looks like Davao City is a boomtown again. But if you look closely, you might notice some things that are a bit disappointing. Like how they’re half-baked. For example, a restaurant that looks magnificent on the outside, and might even be quite presentable inside… but doesn’t spend a peso on staff training. Or — and here’s a pet peeve of mine — a well-designed and glossy brochure that you know cost an arm and a leg to produce… but the literature is poorly written. Tonight my friends and I were at the “seawall” (where the Statue of David stands), and we were laughing at why the management felt they had to put signs on everything. Reading them just made us laugh even harder. The English was bad, ...

Does Russia need a ?half-baked? missile and another new tank?
2008-01-16 20:38:00 To begin with, the Bulava is a half-baked product. It was first tested in December 2003 and has since had only six firings, four of which failed and during one, which was reported as successful, not all warheads behaved as they should have. To include such a weapon in the regular inventory in 2008, even ...

Half-baked thoughts (aka libertarianism)
2008-01-15 08:58:00 Jason Reidman is a libertarian and his movie, Thank You For Smoking, supposedly advocates a libertarian point of view. Reidman articulates his thoughts as follows: "People should be left to their own devices. If people want to put a gun to their head and kill themselves, that's fine with me, and if they want to do it slowly by smoking cigarettes, that's their choice, too." I suppose, if asked Reidman would say that he believes in the harm principle, the idea that unless an individual's action are shown to cause harm to someone else, government must not infringe upon individual liberty. Yet, the harm principle actually advocates aggressive government intervention in order to deter and limit smoking. Why? Because a smoker does not merely harm him or herself, but others as well. By damaging his or her health, he or she is more likely to end up in a hospital bed - costing society thousands (especially if he or she suffers from smoking after retirement when on Medicare), be a less pro...

Half Baked
2007-11-26 01:13:00 "Capitalism and the wealth it produces do not create opportunity for everyone equally. We recognize that the gap between the rich and the poor is wider than at any time since the 1920s. We strive to create economic opportunities for those who have been denied them and to advance new models of economic justice that are sustainable and replicable." From Ben & Jerry's mission statement.Apparently "values-led" Ben & Jerry's doesn't "create opportunity for everyone equally." The liberal whiners spend more time wringing their hands over cage-free eggs, global warming, and defense spending. Our Social Mission calls us to ?initiate innovative ways to improve the quality of life? where we do business, not merely to maintain and expand the successful projects of the past. We are called to do more with our business to make the world a better place."Cherry Garcia" would roll in his grave. BJ stand for more than Ben & Jerry's in at least two dozen current and former franchise own...

Everex?s gPC: A $199 PC with a half-baked ?Google? OS
2007-10-31 18:28:00 Wal-mart just plotzed out the Everex Green gPC, a low-end machine with low-end specs running Ubuntu Linux and a version of Enlightenment that its creators called GOS. Some may say that this is the “Google PC” but it’s actually running a version of Linux specially tweaked to let you “launch” Google apps — still in ...
Half-Baked Hot Potato
2007-09-12 17:42:00 A Fred Thompson flack is calling on Mitt Romney to apologize and can those involved in the "half-baked cover-up" of that dumb anti-Fred website. The Hansel & Gretel breadcrumbs lead to a South Carolina political consulting operation headed by Romney's paid state director and another Romney henchman. [Wash Post]The website was lame and made zero sense. See Mitt's Pitcher. So is Fred. The actor ain't no Ronnie Reagan. A "novice." "Dull" campaign. Fred's been off the stump too long.
