She's becoming increasingly twatty as she gets richer. Between this and the whole Dumbledore thing which either proves she doesn't care about gay rights and will exclude something like that just for the money or she'll make up things after the fact just to draw more attention to her boring characters.
I hope she chokes on a gay Dumbledore figurine....preferably one that depicts him with as a someone with a clown fetish.
It's not a competition run by a large website so there won't be any publicity and the reward is smaller than what you pay out. Even if I was 100% sure I could do it I wouldn't bother.
Well has she denied Kerry's assertion that she believes in a flat earth? As far as I know she hasn't.
I don't object to the idea of a god. In fact I would not be surprised if we're inside the ultimate Sims game and the fact is no matter how far you go back in time you still end up with the fact that something came from nothing to create this universe. So it's not that out of the question that a god exists.
What I object to is people feeling the need to input their idea of god into government.
A) that's not what the conservative party is supposed to be about.
B)If you do it for religion X then you have to do it for religion Y. By the time everything suits believers of Jesus to Scientology nothing will get done.
There is a good chance that there is some sort of life outside of earth whether or not it's a creator or not. But I would be very certain that humans don't have a clue what it is. So wasting time teaching something which won't be accurate and will be biased is pointless.
When they mention god are they going to mention that Jews, Muslims and Christians all believe the same basic religion but their interpretation of Jesus and his role is just different or are they going to mention that these religions are more or less the same story that's been told for centuries long before anyone every mentioned Jesus? Of course not, the Christian fundamentalists don't want an intelligent and fair discussion on religion so there is no reason people's tax money should pay for it.
The largest problem with freedom is that people don't want to accept it comes with responsibility. If you want the state to stay out of your religion then your religion should stay out of the state.
That and the fact that extremists always bang on about it being a Christian nation purely because Puritans came here first. Did they some how forget the Indians were here first and had their own religion?
I have babbled on too long but I will end by saying that the bible clearly states that you should keep your religion to yourself and it's something to be practised in privacy. Only someone who is empty and without god has to be out in the streets preaching to other. It also states that it's a complete package not to be altered with bits added or removed. So it's high time these "believers" quit picking and choosing their favourite bits to believe.
The average person doesn't care because the average person is dumb and doesn't think past their nose. This why history repeats itself so often and why the government finds it so easy to divide and conquer the little people.
But then again I guess the environment is something insignificant that only affects a handful of people so why should anyone care because it might affect their ability to drive their ugly SUV everywhere.
When someone believes the earth is flat when we know different and can easily prove it. That says a lot about their intelligence. To think that thinking doesn't seep into other areas is just being naive.
Would we even be considering her as a viable candidate if she believed that jelly is the perfect material for building houses? Both beliefs are equally stupid in fact it's more likely someone will build a good house out of jelly before the earth is proven to be flat.
Everyone, including the dumbest of people, knows California does fruit/veg, movies and technology.
Not too many peole know what Alaska does other than oil because it's not known for much more than that.
A quick search reveals that its main industries, other than oil are logging, gold, fishing and tourism.
They're all things that require no skill from the govenment. You don't have to convince anyone to take your fish, lumber or gold. These are also things that will eventually disappear so unless people start importing snow there isn't going to be much left worth having in Alaska.
They're fast and always helpful and their prices are decent. I like the fact they're not big timers like Scan. That combined with their helpfulness means you can get shit sorted, imo.
...like forcing developers to only develop for their console (before the Genesis and subsequent systems broke their monopoly), requiring developers to get Nintendo's approval before releasing games, surprising developers with new accessory releases without giving them any lead time, etc.
Exclusives have been done by all companies up until gaming became too expensive that developers just wouldn't do it or hardware makers couldn't afford to pay out to make it worthwhile to a developer.
All console makers require publishers to get authorization first even MS.
I don't quite buy that last one especially with the likes of the rumble pak being know for ages. Nintendo hasn't been perfect but Nintendo tough love in the 8-bit days is what saved gaming.
Having a totally open system is what killed off gaming before Nintendo entered. When people go nuts and are too liberal with their development sometimes you gotta swing back too far the other way to get things back in line.
This is true. For as confident as MS claims it is when it comes to owning Sony this proves they're not.
The arcade model is worthless. It doesn't have the Wii's innovation or the titles that make the Wii fun and it lacks the one thing that makes the 360 good.
They probably got some sort of sweet deal from MS for that.
Linux already has a reputation for being nerdy or hard or not having their favourite programs so why create a product with that OS and then charge more which will put those people off?
Companies will just ship more jobs overseas and we don't need people getting lazy and giving eveyrone else a bad rap (ie the motor industry).
Having said that, my company does have a union. At times I think that's part of the problem. So I've personally opted not to contribute. Yes, I know I still get some benefits from their work but the problem with unions are that they aren't there to protect good workers. They're there to make money and that means protecting lazy workers who will obviously be grateful and pay up.
That's why it's being put under BBC Worldwide. They claim British money doesn't go into the Worldwide portion so they can do what they like.
However I don't buy that the worldwide unit doesn't get any benefit from the tv licence. Hell, the fact it was British licence money that funded those records means that we've paid for them to have those recordings and now we're going to get charged again if we want something from there.
It's so old and they don't want to support so that's why it's free which is cheeky considering it wasn't that long ago they included it in that C&C pack and charged you for it.
Unless they've fixed it (I'm a bit clueless on it tbh) it runs like a million times too fast on modern PCs.
The odds of Google fading away like Yahoo or Alta Vista are quite high. The odds of the US government just fading away are what?
So what if the government tells you that they're tapping your phones and tagging people. Nothing is being done about it and in fact the guy most likely to continue these things (McCain) has a good chance of winning the election.
Google has already change it's ways to suit what the market has said (ie blurring faces on street view) and the only change the government has taken was it's stolen more freedom away from people. It's not exactly hard to figure out who's the lesser of two evils.
Maybe because Google just uses the info to allow you to customise things and target ads towards you which is actually beneficial to you.
Where as the government will use it to hunt you down, probably send you to Iraq and tax you to death. I'd trust my data with most companies long before I'd trust the government.
They're already running trials of RFID tags in people. If you think the government will use that for your benefit then you're having a laugh.

To be honest I rather have full view of what's underneath me for an action based fps.
Besides, work on getting the NPCs to move their mouth properly when talking. That will enhance thing more than being able to see my guy's shoes.

Except for the fact Biden is more likely to die before Obama and McCain could be lucky to make it to the end of his first year making Palin president.

She stated that she wouldn't push creationism over evolution in schools.
She also said she wouldn't be vice president either because she could do more for people as governor of Alaska.

It's an ad about nothing! In the next episode they'll debate whether a peanut is a pea or a nut.
It's a shame that Vimeo is so slow compared to Youtube though.

I'm keeping it real with the EEE.

I which I could edit my reply but anyway...
Another reason for those is that they don't have to support Linux or Mac since it won't use tax payer money. I suspect this will be a windows thing.

Google has code that much for software on running on Linux. It seems like half their stuff they just runs through wine.
