Who knows? Maybe Levin and BringIt will someday steer as much money toward Arizona politicians as the racing industry does, and then Arizona video nuts can clean out each other's bank accounts -- with the state taking its cut, natch.
Not everyone can be the fratboy's newspaper of choice!
But the article does have a very valid point. Just ask McCain's in-laws.
Expensive, but I would do it if it were for a couple days in orbit...
But when you return it's the same old place.

This is going to happen with any platform is tethered. It won't matter if it is the Apple's iPhone, Amazon's Kindle or anything else. Unless the purchasers demand a change this won't stop. Don't expect any miracles.
Your oh so insightful remark is also a cheap way to hamper operations. We need a -1 Dumbass.
I think a +1 Bad Example would be more appropriate. Have it be karma neutral like +1 Funny. Even if you are a total failure you can still be used as a bad example!
It actually has very good story lines. Most of the larger stories are based on the Warcraft RTS games. There are many questlines which have their own unique stories and are definitely worth it.
I can never stand playing WoW for more than a month or two. After running through the content and storylines it gets quite boring and repetitive. The gameplay itself isn't compelling enough to stay and the PvP is a joke.
After vanilla WoW there was very little fun to be had in world PvP or in the world at large. Battling for the world bosses, or between tarren mill and southshore were some of the most fun i've had in the game. Not to mention being able to take your own auction house hostage with the mark of shame or bringing a devilsaur from Un'Goro to the crossroads to munch on the lowbies.
You might not want to call in the State Department. It is headed by this lady known as Hillary Clinton who gave a speech to the CFR yesterday saying we should give up our sovereignty.
After admitting that NGO's like the CFR actually run the government (who elected them?), she says we nee to give up all of our sovereignty.
Thank you very much, Richard, and I am delighted to be here in these new headquarters. I have been often to, I guess, the mother ship in New York City, but itâ(TM)s good to have an outpost of the Council right here down the street from the State Department. We get a lot of advice from the Council, so this will mean I wonâ(TM)t have as far to go to be told what we should be doing and how we should think about the future.
But they are not reason to despair about the future. The same forces that compound our problems â" economic interdependence, open borders, and the speedy movement of information, capital, goods, services and people â" are also part of the solution. And with more states facing common challenges, we have the chance, and a profound responsibility, to exercise American leadership to solve problems in concert with others. That is the heart of Americaâ(TM)s mission in the world today.
If you don't believe that she gets her orders from the CFR then you should check out the link about Smart Power to the right. The CFR gloats that they came up with that term over 4 years ago and that Hillary is now using it.
She came up with a 5 point plan, the third being "Development." Guess who she plans on developing (Hint: not the United States).
Our third policy approach, and a personal priority for me as Secretary, is to elevate and integrate development as a core pillar of American power. We advance our security, our prosperity, and our values by improving the material conditions of peopleâ(TM)s lives around the world.
So don't be too sure that we won't start cooperating with governments, NGO's or some type of supra-government and enforce their laws on our companies. That is what her entire speech was about.
It is there because it is much easier to convict someone on charges of conspiracy to commit a crime than actually committing a crime. It is also much easier to convict people you purposefully set up.
In a truly free society it wouldn't make any sense but it makes perfect sense in today's world.
Not only is that completely unenforceable unless you tell Valve what you are doing it would be quite easy to circumvent by simply selling something completely worthless while giving away your steam account for free.
"I'll sell you this random picture for $20 that comes with a Steam account that includes the Orange Box for free."
Yet, I'm sure you saw all 3 LOTR movies in the theater at least once as you'll probably see the Hobbit (not to mention other movies made by that studio) which will allow them to continue their screwing over of people who may or may not deserve a cut in the money.
Don't bother reading Cele Castillo's book Powderburns. He was a DEA agent in Central America during the 1980's who personally witnessed the CIA and Contras shipping drugs to the US from Ilopongo airport.
Don't bother reading Gary Webb's Dark Alliance.
Don't bother finding out that in 2007 a CIA torture jet crashed in Mexico with 3.7 tons of cocaine.
Keep being ignorant and clicking on links to enlarge your penis. It is obviously the only thing you know how to use.
People now expect government to do everything for them including protection against their own stupidity.
It would be quite simple to organize boycotts against products and companies that don't give you adequate information. However, people have forgotten that they have much more power than a beaurocrat ever will. What they get in return for their lost vigilence are corrupt politicians who sell them out and then they wonder how things went bad.
This is just another example of "my people suffer for lack of knowledge." If you think the government will do everything for you, then you'll end up like the Obsolete Man (a great Twilight Zone episode).

I completely agree. They need to change their name completely. How about "The Base"?
Then expand their operations to Arab nations.

Why do you think Amazon called it Kindle?
Why does Amazon call it Kindle?
I really hope that you were joking about the Justice Department as it is filled with RIAA lawyers (see sig).
You must be talking about Columbia Heights.
I feel the same way but I can't help wondering if people like you and me are becoming The Obsolete Man.

Google chose a very fitting name.

Yes, but they scrubbed our secret moon base and all of the alien ruins!
Wat. Stop making baseless conjecture and passing it off as fact, your post is in no way correct.
Get your head out of the sand please. He is probably correct. The most paranoid conspiracy theorist is the government.

Don't bother attacking any facts, just attack the person... who is anonymous.
Don't bother actually reading the link which is quoting from a Congressional Committee's Report.

So is there a list of "illnesses" that they do still treat with electrical shocks or is it okay for pretty much everything except internet addiction?
To quote the bottom of slashdot:
Of course there's no reason for it, it's just our policy.
