EA has soccer, cricket (not contact but kind of a niche sport), arena league football, and rugby titles. Yeah I'd like to see Aussie rules and 12 man/100 meter Cannuckistan football titles as well, but why stop there, how 'bout 8-man football which is played at smaller US high schools.
Sorry if I came off a little harsh there but it's the truth, up until 1937, my family grew safe, reliable, and profitable hemp. Uncle sam said stop, so my great grandparents did. 4 years later they started up again at the request of Uncle Sam, but when WWII was over with we had to quit again. We moved to tobacco as it was the only other cost effective crop we had (Central Kentucky).
Uncle Sam (and the states) collected far more in tobacco taxes than they ever paid for medi* cancer cases but PM and RJR were rich enough to tax through the courtroom, so they have hung my family out to dry again.
Yes, my old man and grandfather taught me how to shoot, starting with BB guns at 5 with shotguns and then rifles coming later. I intend to teach my kids to shoot, and I expect them to do the same for their kids. I've hunted every small game animal in this state except elk (Haven't hit the tag lotto yet). It's fun, good exercise, and can save your life.
Let them darwinize themselves! Come one people, if junior isn't smart enough to figure out put a rubber on to keep his wang from falling off or getting Mary Jane Rottencrotch preggers, he deserves to live with the consequences.
Did the existence of external enemies cause all German-speaking peoples to unite? Not until late in the 19th century (and the result was the Holocaust uniting is not always good). Subtle Godwin, but I'll bite. German unification was going to happen one way or the other, either in 1870 or 1910. Their internal stuggles produced enough competition to declare a fit unified government, which for all its atrocities could have dominated this planet if Hitler hadn't been a damned fool for pulling a Napoleonesque blunder of invading Russia in winter.
They can't even pay their rent and distrubute food and medicine in most of Africa, you expect them to have a space operation on their own that will be effectively managed, good one.
Game designers hit PC limitations all the time. Sid Meier's Pirates should have african slaves (Sugar plantations crews, slave raids, etc) and prostitues (comfort women, disease vectors for enemy crews) if it is going to be a "realistic" sim, but there is no way those would make it past the ESRB.
I'll second that P3's running like a champ, I swapped my PIII 866 for a 1.4-S/512k cache model last year and was very pleased with buying a "$900 compaq server upgrade" for $100 + a new HS/Fan from Best Buy.
Pro FBSD: Better old and new x86 HW support, better FS (ZFS is still vapor at this point), Better Package/Port management
Con FBSD: Support contracts may not be what your sun platinum has provided, supposedly the instant-workstation port is broken.
Pro S10: Sun JDS makes mass *nix workstation rollouts a breeze, kick ass tech support if you want to pay for it
Con S10: JDS costs lots of cash, per workstation, for some rollout and management interfaces for free software (OpenOffice, GNOME), HW support might not be good on your hardware.
You'll notice I said 24-30 months, instead of the 18-24 for the normal moore's law. Never mind the fact that sun is having to speed up their proc development/release due to pressure from x86/x86-64 and power5/6.
Take sun, some of their new server kit this year is going to ship 10Gbit/s ethernet on the board, which acording to their docs, is going to take 3 USIV procs to keep the bus saturated (6 cores). But when you are looking at 8 to 64 way server boxes, who cares about those 3 procs, especially when in 24-30 months it will take less than one proc to handle that load (Quad Cored + Moore's Law), and the eventually one thread will have the horsepower.
Surely those smart dudes at Via, AMD, Intel, Samsung, Nat Semi, and/or Motorolla aren't going to:
A) FUD this to death if it really works
B) File patent suit until doomsday to keep it locked up
C) Buy them out
D) Let them wither on the vine and then buy the IP.
You won't even make it 50' at the Fort Knox Bullion Depository fence, that yard is mined, heavily, was buried claymores back in the 60's, probably something nastier now. Then the snipers, which you can see from the road. Then whatever security is in the depository (U.S. Mint police).
Add in the fact that there is the equivalent of a brigade of infantrymen and a brigade of tankers there at any given day, you aren't leaving with anything.
Did you happen to see the rest of that report, the largest group of "new" millionaires are african-american, and we aren't just talking rappers and athletes here, we're talking small business owners growing themselves into the upper class, just like you can do.
FCC/ITU Frequency allocation is best described in a manner similar to how modern federal land leases for grazing/forestry rights work.
Timber company A "leases" X acres of National forest, logs it, replants, and maintains it until the lease is up, then the US government rebids that section at some point later in the future when suitable for timber harvest.
Some acreage is permanetly set aside for perpetuity, but the bulk can be responsibly managed till domesday by the consumers.
Before some of you say, ANWR was set aside in a similar fashion, not so fast, read the ANWR creation act (79 or 80, late Carter Admin). It explicitly allows for sections of oil exploitation, the Bush admin is just calling in the option on that section of the act.
or sleep(), delay() or whatever they want to call it, window.setInterval() is a big ol POS on a project I'm working on because I can't maintain state with it.

wake up dipshit, the tobacco quota program was killed last year.
Solaris 10's new stack is supposed to be the new top dog of the TCP/IP world.
And how are you going to play Doom on that setup? Are you going to trust the "server" with your excel files, quicken logs, email, etc? I think not.

It's your responsibility to teah him both. Not the school board, not the church, not the congress, but you the parent.

And me and my old man have been hearing those same claims about it replacing the guitar for nearly as long.

It's worthless for IP device monitoring (no dependency "trees", doen't log to syslog) but we like the environmental monitors.
I don't see how they plan on colling that 1.28, we've got a v440 with 4 of those monsters and its exhaust is hot as hell.

Company life insurance doesn't pay on suicide, maybe I should go work for toyota.
Tell that to those of us who have had to tack frontpage extensions onto apache.
Exactly, but it is a fact lost on most non-political junkies.
