Singapore? Who gives a damn if Singapore is tightening "justice". If I remember correctly, the last time Singapore was in (American) National News was when that kid spraypainted a few cars. They punished the asshat by beating his sorry ass with a very large bamboo cane!!! It's not like they can get any stricter.
Unfortunately, I only have firsthand experience tweaking IBM and Compatible (to use such an archaic term) machines, so I cannot really say, from a technical point of view which is better.
Seriously though, why would someone do this? It's not going to be very powerful, there's no way in hades it would survive a/.ing, besides the geek factor, why would this even be remotely considered? The X-Box would be a better platform for mods than a Gamecube, when just considering hardware.
Actually, a total of 36 Dancing Ladies are given, as all previous gifts are given again on subsequent days. So another 9 ladies on days 9, 10, 11 and 12
Regardless, $120 is far too much to pay for a lapdance.
I don't think you could do that. Liquid nitrogen is diamagnetic, meaning it is slightly affected by magnetic fields. In other words, the coolant could possibly conduct enough electricity to cause damage the hardware.
It's Telemerase, by the way, and it's not lost per se, it's just overly distributed during many, many replications of DNA, and then broken down when cells die.
That looks like a crazy movie! Everyone really should take a look at that trailer. If you thought the FX in the Spider-Man trailer were good, this one is going to blow your mind. Hopefully the movie can deliver more than Revolution Studios' previous masterpieces (Think Gigli, or closer to the point, XXX).
You brought up an interesting quirk of the first Spider-Man film, at least in my mind, that I saw.
Was anyone else annoyed at the end of Spider-Man, when all the people were tossing crap off the bridge at the Green Goblin and that one dude yelled "Don't Mess With New York," or some BS like that? I mean, after they scrubbed all the skyline shots, it was blatantly obvious that they, being the studio, the editors or whoever, were cashing in the integrity of Sam Raimi's original vision for brownie points with the type of crowd that believes "Faux News: Fair and Balanced" is a legitimate news source. The scene just didn't fit and, as well as the final montage where he lands on top of the Empire State Building and the American Flag whirls around him, destroyed much of the movie's enjoyability for me.
I have no idea whether all the cheeze was Raimi's fault or what, but it was annoying, and I'm too lazy to consult IMDB or Google.
and possibly Kurt Russell as Sgt./Commissioner Gordon...
I must point out my objections on the choice of Kurt Russell as Commissioner Gordon. As an actor and screen presence, he just doesn't give off the Gordon vibe. If Russell were a little more, um (lacking a suitable adjective here), for the sake of conversation, less stony, than maybe he would fit, but with his other work, namely Soldier and Stargate, he just doesn't fit the character of "The Commish", as Harvey Bullock so eloquently put it.
As other posters have pointed out, it was the FBI, not the ATF that imposed the shoot-on-sight garbage. You bring up a good point with the Ruby Ridge thing though.
The real story on Ruby Ridge never came out on major news. I'm from North Idaho, as much as I hate to admit that, and saw all this shite go down in basically my backyard. The helicopters flew over my house, for god's sake.
The FBI wanted him, Randy Weaver, to snitch on the Aryan Nations whackos in Hayden Lake, Idaho, and to get him to do it, they basically blackmailed him with bogus charges. The weapons charge in question that he didn't show up for, was being a half of an inch short of the 16 inches required for a shotgun barrel. The person he sawed off the shotgun for was a paid stooge for the local FBI office in Spokane. He knew he was set up by the FBI, seeing as how they offered to drop the charges if he renewed his ties with the crazies and provided intel on any potential terrorism activities like the shooting in the Jewish Daycare in L.A. a few years ago, and the fact that they paid the person to get the saw job done on his shotgun. He told them to go to hell that he didn't want to help them and the rest you saw on the news.
The schmuck was set up by a government agency and, even though he was a scuzzy dirtball, he got royally screwed by a group of people with too much power and not enough accountability.
The whole Ruby Ridge fiasco proves that the little guy is royally farked when he is on the radar of federal policing organizations, whether that be the FBI, ATF or RIAA.
It would be far cheaper to just pay the corn farmers to pick their pud than to pretend corn ethanol will ever be useful.
Have you ever had a drink with Bourbon in it, or Bourbon itself? The mash to make Bourbon, according to some regulatory commission which I don't remember the name of, has to be made of at least 51% corn in order to call itself that name. I know you were talking about the denatured crap they put in gas, but still, good quality, smooth sippin' corn ethanol kicks ass.
I may be being a troll here, but I have one simple question for Bush:
HOW ARE YOU GOING TO PAY FOR IT $HITHEAD?????
The U.S. government is completely broke. We are currently over $100,000,000,000 in the hole this year. We don't have any money. We doooooooooon't have any farking money? Do you not understand that even the United States government can't just print money to cover it's losses? What? Are you going to borrow it back from Haliburton? It's not like you are going to raise taxes this close to elections?
Ok, if little Timmy is old enough to know how to bootleg movies, he should be old enough to know about the things german movie stars do to farm animals.
