The control is awkward for long term play and I have to hold it and use it in such a way that makes my wrists start to hurt in an almost "sprained feeling" way after a long period of time. The control is too small, and you have to arch your wrist in a weird "remote control" way for an extended period of time if you want to play certain games. I learned a sort of way to play twilight princess by holding my hand at my side which was better. As far as the Wii control, it got quite a bit better with the rubber cover / motion plus. I don't have any problems on my PC and I game on it the majority of the time, I also don't have problems with the Xbox. Maybe its my physiology.
Working out increases endurance. It doesn't require a bunch of endurance to sit and type all day long but some people end up with carpal tunnel from it.
Its better to store "useful" information. Id imagine they would store the "high-resolution" output on the big drives then have people analyze it for proper compression/sparsifying techniques.
Second, why should releasing the cables and the banking memos be mutually exclusive? Going through the documents to sort out what's relevant and not is not something you can do in a day, especially not when all your funding and computer time have been cut.
Releasing all at once makes it so other journalists can download it and each could sort through it with their divided labors. If they truly were about "transparency" rather than "Fuck the USA" they would share this Banking/Insurance information with other agencies regardless. Even the new banking/insurance info is being spinned as a weapon for "blowing the lid off of Corporate America". I live in the US man, and people aren't any worse here than anywhere else in the world. They are many times uneducated due to a shitty education system, but many of them are still good people and all this does is spawn more hatred of US citizens. I can't wait to see these banking/insurance/financial leaks, and I hope they cause my fellow Americans to get the assholes out of Washington and force the new guys to severely restrict corporate influence over Congress.
Agreed, but people are getting all pissy about something that isn't true. "THEY ARE CHARGING KIDS TO SING MUSIC IN CLASS OMG!@!!" Is not productive and clouds the forum with drivel.
We have the right because we are citizens of a country where we were promised these things in exchange for others (i.e. money).
The real problem is that the wealthy of this country and even other parts of the world are essentially absorbing all the money from Americans by selling them products that have been contracted out in labor and production overseas (e.g. China). Thus less jobs or lower pay (to remain competitive) for Americans = less money in the hands of the lower classes.
The government doesn't have tax income to counter their overspending, so they take out loans many times held by the Chinese. Why don't they have this tax money and have to resort to loans? Two wars are putting tax money in private contractors hands (i.e. the wealthy) and everyone has to pay for it from their taxes.
Granted a graduated tax system exists but if you look at bare necessity consumption vs. taxation the wealthy have it easier and can shoulder more tax burden (and I would argue this is their duty to a society that enables them to be rich). They cut taxes on ALL citizens including the ones that can bear the burden of taxation easier than most (i.e. the wealthy).
Meanwhile, the economy is failing due to Americans getting sucked dry of their cash while wealthy industrialists bleed it out to China, where they loan it back to our Government to essentially (as Ive outlined above) pay it back to the wealthy.
The wealthy, upper 10 percent have 70 percent of all the money in the US. It used to be that the lower 90 percent had 70 percent post WWII. Perhaps we need another one of those, maybe with China as you seem to think may happen.
They need social programs just to keep the people happy (Bread and Circuses) because there is no opportunities for many and many have just given up due to a shitty education system and a crappy job market (the fault of the wealthy). This is another way the government's overspending is bleeding the US dry.
I blame all of this on wealthy industrialists and financial corporations for their greed and downright evil negligent shortsightedness, and the revolving door between Washington and the private sector breeding all this corruption. Im not saying its not partially the citizen's fault but damn am I tired of it and I try my best to vote for reasonable people.
The bad thing is we may need nationalism to pull us out of that but we all know how slippery a slope that can be. It would probably be too difficult with how many self-entitled idiots and douche bag one-item-voters like religious nuts, environmentalists/PETA, and snobby hipster rich kids hate America just because their pastor/leader/professor showed them such-and-such.
Many people are basing their response on a gross misunderstanding. They are not charging kids to sing, they are charging for each kid to have their own sheet music. This is a common practice for all sheet music in band class, orchestra class, professional symphonic orchestras, church bands, ect. You could be outraged that they are targeting education or young kids, but not over the singing part unless you already disagree with the aforementioned common practice.
All the same, why target the education system? I guess it was the same for me in band class as we all had unique copies of sheet music. I guess it keeps it cheap for the average consumer, like some dude in his garage who plays sax.
In my experience, they do tend to not fail you. For example, you will get a C when you deserve an F (never had one but I know of some people). A+'s are usually given out to outstanding individuals in the class, A- to those that performed well but made some mistakes. B+ is similar to A- but its usually for if you totally fail one homework or failed to complete an assignment or something but otherwise did well. B's in grad school and below are basically a C's and below in undergrad (in my experience). It makes you look a bit better but then again you need to have a 3.25 to get into a doctorate program so you need to perform "Better than B" = "Better than C". It also helps to get your priorities straight and hopefully you know something about your field when you go to grad school.
Id imagine researchers would want to use it for more powerful computer clusters or supercomputers. There is always a demand for that, mostly DoD contracts to universities.
Yes. I use blanket term "government" for "a collection of public servants and organizations thereof that administer a collection of citizens of a nation".
Their was also the whole "war diaries" thing. I don't know. Its too politically charged to really find out how "anti-US" he is with all the crap that pops up when you try to google him. Some of the more interesting things that pop up in google is speculation on whether Julian Assange is the Antichrist. HAHAH. I suppose one reason I come here is to learn new things.
My school is a pretty good one, top tier research, and they took me on an almost bare minimum GPA for grad school. I turned that around significantly, but then again my field is only competitive at levels where you are competing for professorship because no-one wants to be a mathematician:) .

It made my wrists hurt after a while, and I work out.
The point would be he can show up to court and pay less or flee and pay more. Its a deterrent.

Whatever. I have never met a more arrogant bunch that Parisians. Maybe not all French are that way, but Parisians are assholes.

Just from experience, that is what it says in their admissions criteria. No comment on exceptions as I have no experience for that.

Why should people have their shits recorded or their sexual relations, or their weird fetishes. For our entertainment.
... and so religious nut-jobs have something else to bitch about.

If you make up your own prayer you could copyright its written word, but if you really want to make big bucks put the prayer to music.

What stops a world class symphonic orchestra from doing the same and making money off of ticket sales for this music they perform in concert?

Yes. Just being informative.

Makes sense. I "BARELY" made it in 3 years ago with a 3.06 . Then I got my head out of my ass and started studying harder.
Everyone else does the same thing.
Grad schools wont accept you without a 3.0 undergrad and many Doctoral programs wont accept you without a 3.25.
