You can look at any large company that carries a namesake, and most of them aren't exactly bankrupt (i.e. JDPowers isn't defunct without J. D. Powers at the helm).
Just like the ads themselves deflating in price, the stock will deflate. I wouldn't call it a tumble as much as a natural market correction. What's happening with a 500+ price is the unnatural part -- a runup of the price based on speculation that the company could somehow take over a huge percentage of however much internet profits are available to everyone.
OR, you could just choose locations for the Olympics that aren't already polluted... nah, let's hold them somewhere that has air quality so bad it could affect the outcome of the races.
Well, don't forget that to truly become batman, you have to witness your rich parents being murdered outside an opera house, or else your twisted sense of justice and reckoning won't develop into a "troubled superhero" complex.
The rating doesn't mean that it's "for" kids, it just means that it won't "offend" them with the particular things that make the other ratings required for a movie. A documentary on beans could be rated G and would be so boring as to make kids run screaming from the room. Put the F word in that documentary a few times, and it's rated R, but still heinously boring to kids/etc.
I had a Jupiter plan for putting stuff in space on a napkin too, but mine was just throwing a rope out around the planet Jupiter, and using it as a pulley to hoist the stuff into space.
From TFA: "unmatched level of precision and immersion. Every slight movement players make with their wrist or arm is rendered identically in real time on the screen"
1. edit the boot screen from "windows XP" to say "windows 7", then just re-release it as the new version and continue to refine XP's codebase. problems solved!
There's a shortage of web developers with the skill of learning new skills. There are plenty of one-trick ponies that will be flipping burgers in 5 years when their "skill du jour" expires and they can no longer operate a computer with any meaningful capacity. For example, if you are great with flash but you refuse to believe that a large MB flash app on the index page may cause a drop in traffic, then better practice up your "would you like fries with that?"
You mean when I read that QT_pie3478 posted that "my partiez wuz schweet y'allzzz!!!1" that in fact, her partiez may not have been schweet after all? And that in fact, that source might not be reliable? The horror! If only there were some way to tell that the source might not be reliable...
A good replacement term for piracy is the involuntary 100% discount... which differs very little from the voluntary 100% discount suggested by making 'all computer games free'. That is 100% stupid. If you are charging for services related to the game, i.e. "color t-shirts" in the game or the online service or whatever, then guess what part people will pirate instead of the game?
If he opposes it, there will just be 9 million attack ads about how he "supports terrorism" and he'll lose. The best strategy is to support it to win the election, and then strike it down first day in office. That's why being in politics is a crappy job... you have to support things you don't want to in order to get the job, and then when you finally have the power to fix everything, your electorate is confused as to why you're "changing".

I'll go there: ... that's what she said!
"because the vibrator had to be used longer than designed, resulting in a short circuit"
Apparently this guy had a lot worse going on inside than just spamming people. There are plenty of spammers that would never dream of killing anyone.
Wait, you mean Microsoft does something besides create fodder for anti-Microsoft discussions here? Aaaah! (all of Slashdot implodes)
So when can I get my thinkgeek-branded aurora generating cubicle desk lamp?
This sounds like a patent pissing contest... I'm pretty sure nintendo's original NES/SNES controller patents would smack down all of this stuff.

So you're saying we need to get a zillion of those little lime ph-adjusting blocks people use in their fishtanks?

Just put a big picture of (insert humorous person to have a picture on here), they're so bad that in 10,000 years, people will still remember!

In my day, we ate our rust-flavored snow cones and we liked 'em!

You need encryption especially in San Francisco computer systems, because everybody gets easy access via the back door, giggity goo!
From TFA: "Prosecutors say Childs, who works in the Department of Technology at a base salary of just over $126,000"
No wonder he was disgruntled, that's not even a living wage in San Francisco.

Sounds like time for some ungodly wii porn then.

I saw the movie already, and this review still spoiled stuff for me.
Don't spread the word, or GM/Exxon/etc will buy all the patents again like how flywheel cars keep disappearing.

Of course, there'll be Springfield and Shelbyville. Any hope that Ogdenville would get added back at this point is purely speculation.
