House would vote on President - one vote per state - from the three presidential candidates with the highest electoral vote count Senate would vote on Vice President - one vote per senator - from the two vice-presidential candidates with the highest electoral vote count (Trivia: This happened once before when Martin Van Buren's running mate, Richard Johnson, didn't receive an electoral college majority; Johnson was subsequently elected by the Senate) If the House is deadlocked, the VP would serve as President until the deadlock in the House is broken.

Are there any must have DLCs for HOI?

Thank you for finally defining it. At least now I understand your point of reference and the basis for your comments. As for accepting your views as "proof", ah sorry but no. I'll respect your right to express your opinion but I won't accept your views as proof based solely on your say so. But you would force me to prove you wrong? Why not just avoid all that and agree with me ? Also I am still not clear on what Barti definition of polarization is? You good at deciphering things ...what is he saying ? No. I would force you to prove your point if you expect to be taken seriously. It's your call - it makes no difference to me if you want to get into a serious debate or simply present unsupported opinions as facts. And I see that Barti has already answered your question about polarizing. No point in beating that to death.

And how is that any different than you expressing your view based on your perceptions and experiences? I honestly do not understand what makes your point of view special Bruce. For all you know, Bartimaeus' close circle MIGHT in fact be extremely polarized in their opinions. You might at least afford him the respect that his opinion deserves instead of being dismissive of it.

Barti does live here after all and you don't, so I am more inclined to accept his first hand perspective than yours. Or at the very least to accept his viewpoint as being uniquely his. Your response (which is pretty dismissive if you want to know the truth) fails to recognize the possibility (actually likelihood would be more apt) that the circles you both engage in would have entirely different demographics that would make the internal dynamics substantially different and result in complete polar opposites in viewpoint. I would not even attempt to answer you unless you define what you mean by "the place they live"? Are you talking about your immediate neighborhood? your city? county? state? or the country as a whole? or perhaps your circle of school friends? or all of them? Edit: And it seems that I got ninja'ed. lol

Why am I suddenly reminded of Will Smith's allergic reaction in I, Robot?

Except that isn't what the IAEA numbers meant and you've continually misinterpreted them. What the numbers in my post actually showed (again) were two things: (1) That Iran's enrichment program is incapable of meeting civilian fuel needs in a timely fashion in its present state and only the deal with Russia meets the fuel needs. Iran needs nearly 12 to 13 times (~128,000) as many IR-1 centrifuges as they currently have on hand (~10,000 give or take) to be able to enrich enough uranium to 4% for civilian needs) and; (2) that the breakout times are the times required only to enrich enough uranium to weapon grade material and nothing more. The breakout times actually represent enrichment times required to produce sufficient weapon grade material only. The breakout times can only be interpreted as weapon breakout times if you assume that Iran already has a device and a delivery system built. That's what the numbers mean. And there is nothing in the IAEA reports that ever come close to specifying time frames for device and delivery systems. And nothing in my post that attribute those to weapon breakout times. In fact, ISIS* draws the exact same conclusions over the numbers in the IAEA report: http://isis-online.org/uploads/isis-reports/documents/Breakout_Study_24October2013.pdf That's from the same source you rely upon to debunk Parchin. Any further conclusions about how long it might take Iran to build a bomb are raw guesswork and nothing more, and that's assuming Iran even wants to build a bomb. And while I am at it, my comment about skepticism over Rostere's comment had absolutely nothing to do with skepticism over Iranian intentions but that was sure one hell of a nice strawman attempting to make THAT leap. I don't know if Iran is trying to build a bomb and I honestly hope you and Rostere are right. *not the badTM ISIS

Yeah , how much would you pay for the video card I'm getting in the USA ? I am paying $400 Around 250$ at NEWEGG or TigerDirect. Nice card.

You can PM the keys Yes I know that but it wasn't what I asked. Thanks anyway. Edit: Got my answer from another source. It's not possible.

Does anyone know if it's now possible to convert extra unredeemed game keys into gifts on Steam?

LOL Of course I can. Most of the information comes from a link that in turn references information from the following May 29, 2015 IAEA report: Implementation of the NPT Safeguards Agreement and relevant provisions of Security Council resolutions in the Islamic Republic of Iran Item 8(e) of the provisional agenda (GOV/2015/31 and Mod.1) Date: 29 May 2015 Report by the Director General I've sent you the original link, a supporting link and a link to the IAEA report in PDF form in a pm. Enjoy. The original link provides sources for all of the numbers quoted. Edit 1: If for some reason you can not reference the IAEA report, let me know, I have a downloaded copy I can email. Edit 2: The original link also goes into a lot more detail about the timeline of Iran's program with respect to the number of IR-1s available and in use.

Paul Krugman thinks you are full of it.

It's also easier to create the necessary quantity of weapon grade uranium (~16 kg of 90% U-235) than it is to enrich all of the fuel necessary for a single reactor. It's a total function of the energy required for purification and the number of units you have for the process. By the time you've enriched to 4-5%, you already done around 2/3 of the work necessary. Further enrichment is actually easier and simpler once you've met certain economies of scale and Iran's program has long since met those requirements. With 9000 units, Iran can produce enough fissile material for a single warhead (assumed to be ~16 kg of material) in around 2 months. Their stockpiles are sufficient to produce ~8 warheads. Introducing the newer IR-2m centrifuges will shorten that. Some current figures on Iranian supplies and enrichment requirements: Approximate amount of low-enriched uranium needed annually to fuel Iran’s sole civilian power reactor at Bushehr:21 metric tons Percent of this uranium Russia will supply under a ten-year fuel contract:100 Number of years it would take the roughly 9,000 operating IR-1 centrifuges at Natanz to produce one year's worth of fuel for Bushehr:10.7 Approximate number of separative work units (amount of enrichment work) Iran would need to generate in order to produce one year's worth of fuel for Bushehr:100,000 Number of IR-1 centrifuges Iran would need to operate in order to produce this level of work annually:128,000 Iranian Stockpiles Total amount of uranium hexafluoride (UF6) enriched to approximately 3.5 percent U-235 produced as of May 2015:14,937 kg Amount of this material ready for further enrichment (i.e., stored in gaseous form) as of May 2015:8,715 kg Amount theoretically needed to produce a bomb's worth of weapon-grade uranium metal:1,053 kg Iranian Nuclear Breakout Times Under Different Scenarios If Iran feeds its IR-centrifuges with natural uranium and operates: 9,000 centrifuges (the number now running):6.8 months 6,104 centrifuges (the number allowed to be installed under the framework agreement):10.1 months 5,060 centrifuges (the number allowed to operate under the framework agreement):1 year If Iran feeds its IR-1 centrifuges with low-enriched uranium and operates: 9,000 centrifuges:1.6 months 6,104 centrifuges:2.4 months 5,060 centrifuges:2.9 months These numbers are all based on Iran IR-1 centrifuges. Their more advanced IR-2ms can enrich at 5 times the IR-1 rate. The existence of more advanced IR-5 units is suspected but as yet undocumented. The bottom line is that Iran's enrichment program is nowhere near sufficient to meet the requirements for peaceful use and depends totally on the deal with Russia to provide sufficient low-enriched U-235 supplies for civilian purposes. Iran was never going to agree to anything less than 5000 centrifuges anyway if only to save face internally. The current deal does nothing to lengthen the break-out time if Iran wishes to violate the agreement. (1000 IR-2ms and 5000 IR-1s can produce enough fissile material for a weapon in 1.5 months). Edit 1: This wasn't an attempt to cast a pall of doom over the conversation but simply to point out that the deal does squat to limit Iran's nuclear weapon program. Rostere might be right about the long term. The upside in this deal (and the only positive of it imo) lies solely with the chance that it can sway public opinion inside Iran and the moderates will eventually topple the hard liners from power.** Edit 2: **Rostere, I wish I was as optimistic as you were but frankly, I'm skeptical both over the degree to which the moderates can exercise the power you think they have and whether it would even stand a chance of success.
