I still remember the day where we had the ACM-MCPC (an qualifying round of ACM-ICPC for the Midwest section of U.S.) contest in a November weekend two years ago.
Our university happens to be a host site, and because of that, allowed to have 3 teams to compete instead of two. For most other universities, people have to qualify to appear at the competition. For us, we do not have enough people. So that, the professor assembled two teams of three people from the CS department, which happened to have the highest G.P.A. in the department (3.8+ out of 4), and opened the other team slot for public. Nobody inquired in a week. So I decide to make a run for it, even though it looks weird for an EE student to compete in the ACM-MCPC. The professor let me choose my team members. So I assembled a team, all EE students, picked from my electronic class, with G.P.A. in the low 3.x/upper 2.x range, with some knowledge in basic C++ and data structures.
The C.S. teams receive heavy coaching and training for the competition. Us? heavy "training" in Counter-Strike:Source.
At the end we happen to rank in the upper 30's (35th if I remember) out of 120 teams in the entire region. For the other two teams in the C.S. department, one of them ranked just a few place below us, and one of them ranked closed to triple-digits.
So, our training has work so well that we beat the top guys in the CS department. This story is still being talked occasionally.
The books is very useful in the event you skipped class for a session of Team Fortress 2.
In my one of my EE courses, books are not even needed. People will just come armed with a homework solution manual, since the professor was so dumb to assign all the problem from the textbook, and so dumb to make the homework 50% of the course grade. (The final exam worth only 10%, the other 40% were lab-reports,where majority of people just copied from other people who previously took the course.)
And then someone can counter-sue Apple for bundling Mac OS X into those Mac machines. Apple store should have offered Windows Vista as an option. I smell an huge anti-trust lawsuit coming.
Depends. Sometimes it is called cyber-stalking, sometimes it is called direct marketing, and sometimes it is called "reconnaissance". 1337s and people who play too much counter-strike love to use the third term when they are tracking a girl.
Chinese (Mandarin and Cantonese included), English, Spanish, Arabic.
I speak the first two, the first one was my native, and I am learning the third one, even though it is not required for my graduate degree, so that I can hear if somebody saying bad words behind me en espanol.
The fourth one is used for beautiful chicks. Don't follow me if you are not prepared.
With things like this coming out, it is going to be much, much harder to find a wonderful woman. Let alone getting 1000 points in an hour playing Team Fortress 2.
Because, by driving an SUV, you are essentially "safer". (through statistics shown otherwise).
Here in Chicago, I see 80% of commuters who drive SUVs into the city in the morning from suburbs, are only one person, no other occupants. They could have use the train instead. Go figure.
$10 per gallon gas wouldn't hurt me much, because I drive an average of 100 miles a WEEK and my car run 30 mpg in city. (no, it is not a hybrid)
Americans love SUVs because they know whoever they hit, the other side is going to die first. That's why most SUVs drive 80+ miles per hour on expressways. They love this "superiority" feeling, you know.
I agree this is the problem with the law. Chances are because you are white. That's why it may look different. It is easier to find a great woman in the U.S. if you are white, or even black for that matter.
Now my post above specifically talking about EAST ASIAN men in America. This is a completely different story. I have so far haven't seen a relationship that last more than 3 years. And I heard stereotypes that Chinese man are so boring, geeky or dorky or 1337 or weird or psycho or whatever. That is because we do not have organized religion like most Westerners do. We are more like independent spiritual thinkers. That's the difference.
And because of that, it is more and more difficult for Asian MEN to find anything because most Asian woman are out for white men. The campaign is just very tough for us, especially if you are geek/nerd/1337 type Asian man, you have the Mount Everest to climb.
I know many cases of East Asians and don't know about American WHITE women, get burned pretty badly. Here are some examples:
1. A relative of a friend of mine, who is a loan officer at a bank, get a divorce. And he got 75% of his paycheck withheld for alimony. Although he is a very good person and very responsible as I know it, and the circumstantial evidence points out that the woman have MANY external affairs running while married, the judge seems ignoring the evidence and just put it based on the ratio of the income between the man and the woman. The more you make, the more you have to pay. And of course, the children goes to the mom side. So he lost his children to a bitch, and still have to pay for their living while having no right to see the children. TOO BAD HE DIDN'T SIGN A PRENUPTIAL AGREEMENT FIRST, OTHERWISE THESE COULD BE ALL AVOIDED.
2. Another more distant case. This is a cousin of a friend of a friend of mine. He is in a PhD program at CMU. He was in a relationship with a red-headed girl, and after sereval month, for some reason, she accuse him of "statutory rape", while what I heard it is just some touching. Of course he got no money for a lawyer, and you know that in our culture, we taught to be accepting whatever is coming our way rather then fighting. He got put in jail for 6 months and with a criminal record. He committed suicide after that because there YOU KNOW there will be no job prospect in academia or IT field if you have a criminal record of any kind.
Stay out of American women, those who raised up here. Immigrants are different story.
It is very hard to find real relationship in the United States, especially if you are not white.
I have once known a rare, very nice and responsible woman of Italian ancestry(kind of like "a church girl") but the relationship was interrupted by her parents who yell racial slurs like "You yellow chink keep your hands of my daughter!". She is very obedient to her parents, so you can see obviously this is not going to work.
You don't have to move out the U.S. however, if you can't afford the airfare, or for some reason don't have a passport. Look for those who are 1st or 2nd generation (non-english speaking) immigrants. Of course, YOU NEED TO TAKE THE PAIN AND LEARN THEIR LANGUAGE. I can't emphasize it enough.
As a word of warning, East Asian people are more and more looking into $$$$$. No $$$, no relationship. It's that simple. I know their culture. I have been raised through it.
I generally agree your saying, the only thing is you are omitting is Middle-eastern woman. This could be an uncovered treasure. Of course, you need to learn a super-hard language called Arabic. I don't think I am up to the task, but you might be able to. You might heard of the "fact" that Muslim women will not marry non-Muslim man. This is no longer true. Just look up "George Galloway" on Wikipedia.
Anyway, good luck on your quest. This might be as easy as a slap on your wrist, and getting 1000 points on a 24/7 dustbowl map in Team Fortress 2 in a couple of hours. Or it could be tougher than the toughest quest on the Forgotten Realms Campaign Set. Listen to your instinct, that might save your a$$ when you need it.
Only white, black and may be Hispanics are considered "Real Americans" and get promoted, no matter their performance. People who are in none of those above described race (i.e. Indians, Chinese), even born in U.S., are considered "Non American" and the glass ceiling is on you, no matter how hard you work. You can't fight. This is their culture.
And if you got promoted in the rare case, chances are a scapegoat are waiting for you. You will be the first one to go to jail if something happens, even you are not related.
There is no need to fight. There are many opportunities in non-Defense related field.
Rolling up a little bit upward, and we can see all twitter's sockpuppets are committing racism against my race. These people need to be purged from the U.S.A. in conjuction with the neo-cons for the new age to arrive.
Our culture is one of the most peaceful in history, and have little history of waging war against other country (although lots of civil war against their own people. That's sad.) If you don't like things that are Made in China, SIMPLY DON'T BUY IT. There are tons of alternatives if you get your a$$ up from your seat and search. You are like that little neo-con radio talk-show host bitch called "Laura Ingraham" who yelled "Chinese come over to kill Americans" during the Virginia Tech massacre, while in fact, the psycho is Korean. She never offer any apology at all.
In the New Age, two languages will be spoken in the New World Order. Let me give you a hint. These are all come from Asia.
Not to mention the American GNP grows much faster than the debt.
Not only those characteristics. Always remember this article. It is the secret guide to get more girls.

That's we need for a legal system reform. Capping upper limit on malpractice lawsuits saves everyone money.
Smells like it. Another dubious attempt to boost RIAA credibility.

This looks like some luxury home on the shore of a small lake. May be it is a sole proprietorship.
The just lost a bid to overturn a $21 million patent-infringement verdict. They might face a ban on all Wii console sales.

if this case is successfully convicted!

It allows you to run any type of code in the Wii, let's say, Linux.

Because usually geeks/nerds get NO girls. This trend is troublesome. That's why it matters.
Not exactly free, may be around 20 - 30 renminbi.
