That article doesn't mention the less on education part. Perhaps a better way of saying it would have been 'not slashing the NASA budget to pay for education while in FL and TX'.
In an AIAA daily journal it had an entire section of the policy shift, this is one of the entries that I remember from it.
Orlando Sentinel is one of the articles that journal cited. The main quotes are:
The campaign tried to clarify its position Tuesday after it released a space policy last week that seemed to contradict an earlier position by Obama.
In that new policy, Obama pledged to reduce the gap between the 2010 retirement of the shuttle and the first mission of Constellation, its successor program, now slated for 2015.
The new stance appeared to conflict with a previous Obama plan that would raid the Constellation budget to help pay for education reform set. That plan also called for delaying Constellation by five years.
But campaign sources said Obama would not delay the development Constellation, only later stages of the mission that would send astronauts to the moon and Mars.
However, it's unclear what that policy would mean for NASA and Constellation, as the moon-Mars plan was the underlying reason President Bush pushed for the development of Constellation.
Plus, raiding the Constellation budget would not cover even a third of the $72 billion Obama needs for his education plan in a prospective first term. There was an article in the journal that said the changes which would speed up the introduction of Constellation were made while he was in Florida and Houston.
This story has been all over like a month ago. The Orlando Sentinel had a story that they ran where it compared things Obama said outside of Florida to things he said while in Florida. Outside of FL, he goes on about slashing the NASA budget. Then, when talking to people that directly affects, he changes the story to spending less on education and more on NASA to try to get votes.
I'm not goint to say what base or where it was, but in the early 1970s I was on a base with thousands of B52s loaded with nuclear warheads waiting for WWIII/Armageddon. There were several SR-71s and U2s as well. There were a total of 744 B-52s produced. Far shot from 'thousands'. The only ones that were on the runways loaded were the alert line, far fewer than were stationed at any bases.
On top of that, SR-71s and B-52s were never stationed at the same bases. The only base the SR-71 ever operated out of that was non-CONUS was Kadena, Okinawa. I'm calling BS on your being on any base in the early 70s that had all three aircraft.
Although if you look up any operational base, you can clearly see the alert lines with the fully loaded aircraft. The ones I looked at had nothing chopped from them.
No dedicated servers Laggy online play forcing players to rely on other players Net connections/bandwidth Wasn't it the Warhawk developers saying that they were also including player hosted games because they realized that dedicated servers weren't the best in all circumstances?
Yeah, it was. Only having dedicated servers is a bad idea. Even your precious PS3 game devs realize that. They even claim it reduces normal latency issues because you can find games closer to home, especially when in other countries.
Developer hostile and closed. Because XNA is really tough to get a hold of and play with, right? Especially since the development environment is free and all.
PS3 Online: Developer friendly and open system Now that is some funny shit.
Should somebody who goes to a bar with friends have the right to anonymity? They are not recording who is drinking, they are recording who enters the place with the scanner.
Should the person hanging out as the DD have their information recorded just because you think it will stop people who drink and then acting responsibly from being anonymous (and probably able to prevent that behavior in the future)?
Systems such as these are integrated into some platforms. Not necessarily fighters, but definitely helicopters. Not this exact system, but similar designs. Since I'm not involved in fixed wing aircraft (generally, I have done some work on tankers), I don't know exactly what systems they have - other than in a general sense. But on helicopters not only do they have these systems, but omni-directional IR jammers, flares, chaff, laser warning receivers, missile launch warning systems (separate and integrated into the directional sensors), etc.
Why test it on commercial jets when it'd be much more useful on military planes to say help with anti-missile countermeasures such as flares? That would be a mess when the flares have a false alarm and pop off during approach or landing. On top of that, the old-school flares don't really stop any kind of modern missile. To stop modern missiles, you need one of three types of flares, which is just asking to set large areas of residential areas around airports on fire.
Why spend $11 billion to stop a threat that is basically non-existent? Those incidents you pointed out happened in insecure areas, and even then they didn't succeed. There is somewhere between 150-200sq mi (I'd actually have to dig out my notes to find the number that was briefed) around an airport that a normal approach/takeoff is within the flight envelope of the most commonly available shoulder launched anti-aircraft missiles. There are a LOT of people working on the problem of how to secure areas that large around public areas. It is not as insignificant a problem as you think.
In the time it takes to get that good at GH, you could learn to play the guitar for real. Spoken like somebody that has never played either GH or a real guitar. A real guitar can take years of dedicated practice to play some of the songs you get to play in the GH series. There is a reason it is as popular as it is.
From the reviews, TF2 is not much different than TF, just with new skins and new maps. That doesn't sound like it's worth $50. You just demonstrated your extreme ignorance at what you are trying to hold a conversation about.
I actually don't understand why AA is so limited in popularity. I thought it was actually a fairly decent shooter, and the price is certainly right. Because it is fairly realistic. People don't want realistic where you are using actual tactics, hand signals and weapon characteristics. They are looking for fast-paced shooters that you don't have to pay attention to details such as coordination.
That makes more sense. I never got the PS2 because I had just graduated and couldn't justify that much on a system. I just skipped that and went for the PS3 (60g for full backwards compatibility) instead. The PS3 has seen a TON more use as a surrogate PS2 instead of playing new games (at least until GH3 was released last weekend).
(Whose total subscriptions across all titles fail to even match Lord of the Rings Online, let alone World of Warcraft) What are the subscription numbers and where did you get them?
Heck, even Halo 8 only made it to quad platinum (4 million). Here's some friendly advice. That joke was worn out since Halo 2. Seriously. Find some new material, for the love of God.
It is software, available as a download. As long as it is subsidized by the US paying $50, the UK paying 50pounds, they CAN sell it for $10 at a profit to a few countries. Especially when the volume of those sales aren't going to amount to more than a tiny fraction of the sales in the US/UK.
I'd have to argue this though, the first DVD player most gamers had was the PS2. Back then VHS was still ok and no one had a need to go out and buy an expensive stand alone DVD player. Yeah, but back then everybody had TVs who bought the PS2. Not everybody has a HD-TV. That would make the expense unjustified to some who did buy the 360 already.
The tactile testing was done quite a while ago. It was before the 3D audio.
Audio cueing is still ongoing. The first experiments showed some promise, but the pilots couldn't pinpoint the direction fast enough. One of the problems is how noisy the cockpits are already. There is constant chatter from the different channels, crew coordination, and outside noise (especially with weapons firing).

Because without the sensationalist title, nobody would think twice, there would be less views of the article and less ad revenue.
How is four classes our of something like 18 half?
Congrats on being a fucking idiot. All that shit has been known since the console was introduced.

My fault for the wording based on that article.

Fuck, I hate politicians.
There are several Army posts that are open. There are no Air Force bases that are.
On top of that, SR-71s and B-52s were never stationed at the same bases. The only base the SR-71 ever operated out of that was non-CONUS was Kadena, Okinawa. I'm calling BS on your being on any base in the early 70s that had all three aircraft.

You think those are bad, check out Madden on the PS3.

How does your number 3 (have a better job) relate to numbers 1 (it is cheap) and 5 (need a new DVD player)?
How is GHIII better on the 360 than the PS3?
