http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/12/23/more-than-3000-washington-prisoners-mistakenly-freed-early-since-2002.html
Authorities say a July 2002 state Supreme Court ruling required the Corrections Department to apply good-behavior credits earned in county jail to state prison sentences. However, the programming fix ended up giving prisoners with sentencing enhancements too much so-called good time credit.
Sentencing enhancements include additional time given for certain crimes, like those using firearms or those committed near schools. Under state law, prisoners who get extra time for sentencing enhancements cannot have that time reduced for good behavior.
An analysis showed as many as 3,200 offenders were released early, and another 3,100 who are still incarcerated had inaccurate release dates.
A timeline provided by the governor's office shows the agency consulted with attorneys regarding the error the same month and scheduled a fix for the program. However, the coding fix was repeatedly delayed, and the governor says he didn't learn of the issue until last week, when corrections' officials notified his staff.
"For reasons we still don't yet fully understand, that fix never happened," Brown said. Corrections Department Secretary Dan Pacholke, who took over as head of the agency in October and just learned of the error last week, also said he couldn't yet explain what happened.
"How that did not rise up in the agency to the highest levels is not clear to me," he said.
Stay safe Washington fags.
Topkek. Here in Canada if they fuck up you go back to jail to serve your remaining time. There is gonna be a lot of mad people if they have to go back.

Oberlin College Students: Cafeteria Food Is Racist
http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/12/20/oberlin-students-cafeteria-food-is-racist.html
Misanthropy is the only tenable position.
>>11066
I want you to understand something op.
I've been in the worst depression slump ive had in a while. Ive stayed in bed on my phone or just staring at the ceiling until i go to work at 1600. Your article that you shared helped me get out of bed, it helped me get out of my funk.
Because somewhere out there, there is some asshat calling cafeteria food racist and its making news.
And im just laying here. Maybe ill go type up my essay i need to type. Go work on my car, or read that book I've been meaning to read.
Thank you op.
College students should be sent to China.
I can sympathize with "“I would like to see Bon Appétit fired and replaced by something other than an international corporation,” a student, Kendra Farrakhan, wrote to the paper. “I would like to see the chefs have the respect and autonomy to cook the food they love.”"
and if the food is shitty versions pretending to be accurate then that is annoying and can rightly be criticized.
However, calling the food racist and going on about cultural appropriation is the dumbest way to do it; I can't believe these people.

How bad is it going to get for the offshore industry? How long with OPEC keep up their strategy to destroy all other oil production?
Offshore industry was waining before land rig count started to decline. Cost to operate those ships is astronomical, so it makes sense for those to be hit the hardest.
It's gonna get worse before it get better fo sho
>>11054
The only reason OPEC was winning the oil economic war was because the United States foolishly banned exporting oil. They just lifted it, but it's hard to tell if it's too late or not.

That took them 30 years to realize?!
So /fit/ and their "bear mode" is a load of bullshit?
>>10758
Bear mode is different.
True bear modes look fat but they have a lower BF % than the average man. If you look at a lot of powerlifters, for example, they have a big gut but no rolls. SOME muscle is also usually able to be seen, mostly around the shoulder/arm area. It's not exactly healthy, but pro powerlifters would be lowering the amount of weight they'd be able to move if they ever cut.

http://nypost.com/2015/12/16/plus-size-models-may-be-making-the-obesity-epidemic-worse/
>advertising campaigns that lean towards using “plus-size” models are having a “detrimental” effect on the public’s lifestyle and eating behavior.
> the reason for the poor health choices are because of the use of reassuring slogans such as “real” and “normal” next to “plus-size” models.
study found that when participants are shown images of "plus-sized" models with slogans saying the models are "real" or "normal", those participants made worse food and exercise choices.
Surprisingly, it looks like normalizing obesity has the effect of normalizing obesity. Showing fatties as the ideal encourages people to aspire to be fat.
