Is it confirmed that this game is using the "light gun" function of the Revolution controller, or could it be using the "gyroscopic" pointing functionality instead? (i.e. do I have to actually be pointing it at the TV screen and hope that my screen can be read by the gun, or does it just move along with my hand movements, updating crosshairs on the screen?)

but i read it as "blah blah blah, shortage, blah blah blah, more worker visas because of the shortage, blah blah blah, don't be surprised at more outsourcing because of the shortage, blah blah blah".
Not exactly. It says that these two commandments are the -basis- for the rest of the laws, and that the rest of the laws depend on these two commandments. One interpretation calls the two commandments a "summary" -- not necessarily calling the rest of scripture redundant.
some parts of what you said ring true, but none of that makes a woman deserve to get AIDS from her cheating husband or boyfriend (not that this is what you intended to say.)
One of us had a reading comprehension problem between "telling your wife you are gay" and "threesomes". If you are not gay, and tell your wife you are in order to get a threesome, my contention is that you would get the wrong kind.
it depends on what you are looking for and what you are addicted to. if you are addicted to the "risk" of being "caught" looking at "normal" porn, it is different than being addicted to, say, images of paedophilic porn themselves.
being on my 6th replacement 4th Gen 40 GB iPod (and i treat it insanely gently), it is certainly not the product, but the fact that they cheerfully and apologetically replace the damned thing within a few minutes of my walking into the store. it is certainly not product quality that makes me want to stick with apple, it is the folks at my local apple store, who are knowledgeable and actually interested in the computers and other "thingies" they sell, and the knowledge that if i buy a lemon product, it is going to be replaced, period.
good thing this is a constitutional republic, not a democracy, then. if only someone would actually dust off the old thing and read it once in a while.
a fair question, it is true that i assume this based on the fact that they married before he became insanely famous, remained married for almost 30 years, and have had 3 children (spread across nearly 10 years). but your point is taken, i have no way of knowing that he has a happy marriage, only a long one, with children, and not a single news story that i've ever seen to indicate the opposite.
obviously, the ewoks were added to show that the ultimate downfall of the empire was that they underestimated native peoples like the ewoks. duh.
consider: had the planet been full of rebel humans, would the empire had taken things so lightly with respect to their "trap" plans, to security? but because they were "just stupid little furry creatures, not even people, they don't even have blasters", the empire overlooked them completely. and without this oversight, the empire would have won. but it is things like this oversight which literally defines the empire.
actually, mark hamill turned into a pretty accomplished voice actor. he even had live-action roles in SeaQuest and in cut-scenes for the video game series Wing Commander. sure, his career has not followed the same trajectory as harrison ford's, but considering his horrible car crash, i think he's done quite well for himself. a long, happy marriage, 3 kids, plenty of regular work. we should all be so lucky.
there will be "star wars tv watching" parties, much like there were "sex in the city" parties, "friends" parties, "survivor" parties, and "sopranos" parties.
geeks will get together and make a weekly ritual of watching. eventually, most will stop dressing up and/or bringing their star wars action figures.
otherwise 20 years of whining, farming, and womp-rat shooting... yeah, that sounds great.
let's say that instead they focus on leia and political intrigue on alderaan. on the emperor and vader's dominance throughout the empire. on han getting the millenium falcon from lando.
maybe on the massive fucking rebellion that had barely begun? on the rise of grand moff tarkin and admiral piett? on wedge antilles? boba fett's quest for vengeance? mon mothma and the rebellion?

since i have had much, much more success with db2 on linux than with oracle on linux. as always, YMMV...
awesome quote.

preach on.
c. s. lewis mentions some of this in "mere christianity" -- if your wife is the reading sort, have her give it a porusal perhaps.

The. Wrong. Kind.
only bought the one. never again will i buy a hard disk based player, ipod or otherwise.

the teacher misses the best way to keep laptops out of the classroom:
hold class in a swimming pool.
the second best way would be to have several very, very large van de graaff generators running unchecked throughout the classroom.
the third best way is to teach something that requires concentration and attention to be learned, and to fail the students that do not learn it.

don't forget holodecks. between those two elements alone, we could come up with, say, 4 or 5 seasons worth of shows.

either you are retarded, trolling, or honestly don't realise that luke and leia are twins...
