also harry potter and the goblet of fire has the most inclusive ending of all the ones printed so far. so wating two years when you really have to know what happens yet is quite a long time.
that wasn't a troll he keeps looking at her. then in the fourth book he has to sak someone to a dance and he spends ages trying ot get the courage to ask cho. he also dosn't want to rought cho aobut in a game of quiddich in the thrid book. so harry actually does have a thing for cho. it's acutally part of the books and an indication of harrying growing up as he begins to develop affetions for girls.
no i think it's just that they claimed it was offical that is the problem. if htye said it was a fanfic it would be no problem but if people buy it thinking it's real then they're being ripped off
actually they don't really follow a formula. yes in three out of the four the dark arts teacher has been bad. the villin was the defence of the dark arts teacher in two of them. the dark arts teacher was drunk on illgotten fame in antoher. and in anotehr it ws harrys fathers friend. so no it's not alwasy the defence agains the dark arts techer.
in fact the books got more complicated as they go on. the firts one starts off as a childrents cook and as harry gets older the sorys become more complex. sure they're not exceptionally complex but they are good books. people jsut seems to have dismissed harry potter as crap beceause it is popular with children which is very common. like people hated pokemon beceause young kids liked the anime. if they're read with a mondset like that yes you will be looking for faults. but harry potter is not predictable in fact the second one where the defence against the dark arts techer was the bad guy you thought he was the good guy throught the whole thing.
yeah like dragonball the most popular anime which is hevely edited to make it suitable for americal audience alike sailor moon, cardcapor sakura (i mean cardcaptors). but a lot of people have seen more mature aimed anime or at elast people i know, it may be diffrent in america but in australia sbs a patually goverment funded free to air tv station occasionally show anime, hey it's where i first saw ghost in the shell, akira and neon genesis.
in melbourne there is minotaur which stocks both anime and manga. there is a lot of marvel type of stuff there too but they have a good stock of anime, stey ahve inported stuff too. minotaur is on swanston street just past myers on the other sideof the road.
hobby japan is walking distance from minotaur located in an arcade about a blok up in the direction of myer up swanston street but i'm not sure what roads is comes off. arcade and whicle is a small store has rentals and a nice stock of dvds for sale. they also have other anime related products like figureines.
initial d stocks a lot of japanese related stuff including anime soundtracks and manga dvds although a lot of the dvds are bootlegs. i'm not sure about the address though.
comics r us stocks manga too although not very much and it's mostly dragonball. i don't know the address though since i don't go here much.
then there are conventions like manifest which has a lot of stalls set up that also can tell you where their permanent store is. manifest have screening too.
yeah i agree, pirate are cool, pirate and dinosaurs.
and well possibly software pirates are just the new age of pirates, they're profiting of somthing that's not theirs athough they don't kill people.
what would be cool is software dinosaurs.
you underestimate the big business', they didn't get big by coming up with somtihgn then just sitting on that and not advancing. they'll know that as technology changes so must they. the real diffuculty is even once they embrace mp3 and whatever filetype is big at the time people will want to just get them off friends. as they try to stop piracy people will come up with new ways to do it. just selling music on the internet isn't enough they have to make omney of what everyone downloads. personally i think they should really push the quality advantage of SACD over mp3, ogg and mp4 although most people don't care about quality i bet people will begin to relise the quality inferity of the files and even if they can't hear them it may have a placebo effect that they'll begin to hear errors where they are none. hell i bet this won't even work but it's the best i can think of, although the record companys will have plans of their own.
the only think you miss at all with linux is games, for everything else i want i go to http://www.freshmeat.net and check that. there is a large amount of other stuff like start office and ohter such stuff.

if all you want is simplicity then sue windows. however it's those installations that windows can get so bloated since it dosn't really give you freedom with what it's doing do you can end up with crap installed that you don't want.
linux is less bloated, more stable and gives you much more freedom over your computer.
i agree, far to many people here can't see why people wouldn't have the same computer needs as them. while i do think that linux would be preferable for most people (since they often say they hate windows and don't seem to have any need that linux dosn't offer like games) i don't think they have to become a coder, a geek or any other sterotype attached to linux
well distros like mandrake and redhat do more of the work for you so you don't have to learn as much at the begining and then progressivly learn more. i started with red hat and while i sure as hell was glad to get away from it i do think it was a good way to learn. but i guess i would have learnt faster if i started with slackware.
but if you're trying to get more people to use linux then advise them to use red hat or mandrake, since if they don't really want to change then they won't like being thrown straight into deep water
yes well quite possibly it's just an excuse to get excited. but as we all know keep getting the new ones untill you get one that's bloated, unstable or crap in any other way.
but yes i agree, for most people there is no compelling need to get the new version but i'll get it on the off chance it's better then if it's not i'll just re install slackware 8.0
the other reason why this is such big news is mostpeople can't so this. if someone dies by climbing a sky scraper the reactionis wow that would be cool if he made it and this is the same thing, people are interseted beceause it's comthing they are incapable of doing but a car accident anyone can do. also beceause this is uncommon it's more interesting if everytime somebody developed a smoking habbit an article was published on it then people would find it quite boring not to mention wipe out a number of forests in the process.
however there is nothing to state that this knowledge wasn't given a chance, the education system isn't for everyone and the perception that smart people go to smart universitys is just stupid sure the better universitys cater for inteligent people but this may just be the way this guy chose to use his ability.

this is not true as members of what like to call themselves "gaming generations" grow up the addictions they've developed for games has continued, it could be beceuase of gaming stopping an imagination of any form from forming so bored with life they turn to games or beceause they developing their social interactions of chat rooms waiting fiding people to play online with they can't live otherwise or it could just be that they have found games to be an enjoyable passtime.
while waiting to meet a friend nearby a game rental place i saw numerous people reaching 30 going in and hiring games and discussing with the owner who was outside having a smoko what games are good. this shows that games way be a childs apsstime but they are not exclusivly for people with childrens ages.
personally i think that it is someone that so many people are growing upo with that while they may begin to play them less they will never stop even if they can hardly find the time with work.
but they have the same right to access what htey want as you do. don't forget they're paying for it too. and what if the network was slowed down from otehr things then porn is that ok, is it purely because it's porn or is it beceause it's slowing down the bandwith?
if they pay for it they should have the right to use it for what they want.
they have the same right to access what is of interest to them as we so i mean if you're paying for access and sites you wanted to visit were blocked then you'd have a right to be pisses reguardless of if you'r a "dirty perv" or not.
otehrwise we're saying we're better then people who look at porn.
Don't you think there's something wrong with the X-Box if Microsoft has to loose that much to get them sold??
they drop the price to compete so they can sell consoles to people who were considiring getting another console since the compitition is so fierce.
and hey they charge plenty for windows and there really is something wrong with that.
they have security on the hard disk don't they? well i could be wrong but i gathered that they don't like the idea of people doing that and createdsecurity to stop it. although i guess that it's only a matter of time untill it can be formatted.
yeah i'd say bring the issue to their attention pleasently so they don't feel resentful about it then if that dosn't help then take action. and just place a verbal ban on p2p's with the email then block the ports. or if you can try blocking programs with the file names of common p2p's but that can be easily beaten by changeing the file names so i'd say blocking the ports is the best option.
to get more bandwith for a small school cost money taht they most likely don't have otherwise they would have got it. the service is there for useful resources and not for people to suck the bandwith with warez and other crap.
also schools are liable to what's done through their network, the school i used to attend got in trouble when a student did some low level malicious cracking and legal action was taken and guess what ip turned up but the schools. this isn't such a problem with p2p's but it gives you in idea about why restricions on educational networks are required.

i don't think this is about online sources as is it much poorer quality. this is assuming hentai is included
