Yeah, if the whole game is like the introduction/tutorial missions we've seen, then I probably won't buy it (except maybe when it hits the 10$ bin). But I expect good things from them. We'll see how it shakes out.
I'm really looking forward to this game. Many times I've dreamed of a game that broke the invisible glass barrier that stuck between my character and the rest of the game world. I hope someday we can see games that implement this kind of contextual environmentally interactive gameplay into their core mechanics. Imagine Mirror's edge gameplay in a fantasy MMO setting? We might finally be able to recreate something akin to the seige in the 2nd LOTR movie.
If you had read the article and looked at the example image, you would see where the summary got that text from. Don't worry though, there are plenty of tards living kickass lives!
What most people don't realize is, the Rapture already happened. It was in 1987, and unfortunately only one person qualified, a rather reclusive gentleman from Newark who only left the house to collect his social security check or go to church.
LOL, reminds me of the time I decided to bypass the sandbox features on the mac classics in the english class by setting it to boot off the bootable rom chip that every classic had. I changed the default boot from the HDD to the ROM chip too, so it always booted to that... the teachers literally spent hours trying to fix it and never did, but they could never pin it on me so I didn't get in trouble. Years later I was passing by the room and saw the lonely classic sitting on a shelf and asked, and it was in fact that same machine. I decided to be nice and fix it for them, it took all of 30 seconds, and my thanks was a glare and a lecture about how the horrible tribulations they went through to trying to fix it.
I quit around the time of Bone Dancers, castable endurance buff for shamans, and Savage quad hit insta gib and Berserker left axe insta gib all being in the game at one time. It was just stupid at that point, no reason to even play.
As for the Bush a "child killer" comments. It is the fact that he is president that makes the difference. He is no longer a person, but a symbol of America, when you insult Bush you are not really directing you attack on the person, but the position and the administration.
That is probably the stupidest thing I've ever read on slashdot. Your assertion is simply wrong. You can criticize a person without saying anything about their job. You can say someone is doing a bad job without criticizing the position they work in. The buck stops on the President's desk. He has hire/fire over everyone in his administration, and a lot of people outside of it. When they fuck up, he fucks up. The man is a puppet, a clown, a loser, and a total failure. Everything he has ever touched has turned to shit and every time his daddy has come in to bail him out, and based on that record we gave him more power than any other person on the planet, and he stayed true to form. Do not make excuses for that piece of shit, he dug his own hole.
In most (if not all) school districts, the school system has jurisdiction over the student in cases where the student interacts with school property, school employees, or school sanctioned functions. Therefore, accusing a school system employee of committing a felony during school hours in a public forum would (and should) be under school system scrutiny.
Wrong. The authority of a school stops at the school's property line, with the exception, as noted above, of when the school is acting in the place of the parents at an off campus school function. The last thing this society needs is more petty tyrants with power over people just on their own say so. Unchecked power in the hands of a president or a principal is a bad thing, and needs to be curbed.
You could do pretty simple materials tests on the meteor fragments and figure out that instead of deep space, they came from a quarry in Utah. Also, don't put it past the smartass 22 year old space bomber to have written "fuck all towel heads" or something equally erudite on the side of the rock in big white letters.:)
Funny, but no. There's much more important things the military could do with this technology than just dropping bombs. For one thing, we could finally develop an effective ABM system, rendering ICBMS's obsolete. For another, it'd add greatly to communications and surveillance capabilities, while costing a fraction of today's systems.
Oh great, just what we need, the DOD with their own space elevator. Gitmo in space anyone?
So I'm seeing a lot of talk about the mechanical engineering parts of all this, but has anyone considered the effect of having a conducting cable running from the ionosphere to the ground? Are we talking about having a 30,000 kilometer permanent lightning bolt in Japan?
The man was found dead in his apartment of a heart attack. Seen leaving the scene was a mysterious large footed gentleman with a large red afro and a case that seemed to leak a trail of grease...
Um, first of all if you want to know the truth, ask Michelle Malkin what it is and then believe the exact opposite. Thats her super power. Second, check this excerpt out from the article:
Palin has come under fire for using private e-mail accounts to conduct state business. Critics allege that she uses the account to get around public records laws, as the Bush administration has also been charged with doing.
An index of the e-mails in her inbox, which includes sender, subject line and date sent, indicates that Palin received numerous e-mails from her aides in the governor's office, some of which could be work-related.
An e-mail from her press secretary, Meghan Stapleton, indicates the message is about the "Motor Fuel Tax Suspension".
The subject line of an e-mail from Randall Ruaro, her deputy chief of staff reads, "Draft letter to Governor Schwarzenegger." Another one from Ruaro says, "Please approve" and another one is about "Court of Appeals Nominations."
Other e-mails from Ruaro indicate they're about employee and budget issues for the DPS. DPS is how Alaska refers to its Department of Public Safety.
Palin's chief of staff, Michael Nizich, sent her an e-mail August 22 with the subject line, "Using Royalty Oil to Lower the Cost of Fuel for Alaskans." The subject line of another e-mail from Nizich reads "CONFIDENTIAL Ethics Matter."
E-mails from the governor's scheduler, Janice Mason, indicate that they're about Palin's schedule for the week of August 10.

The lesson here is that school administrators are fucking stupid.
There, fixed that for you.
What is this progressive metal/rock you speak of? I am intrigued.
Except that linking to a website isn't a trademark violation.
I would have hit the X. The blatant browser marks all around the box make it obvious that it is not a legit error popup.

This IS the tribulation. Fun, isn't it?

We must stop at nothing to protect our children. They are our nations greatest precious resource
They are also tasty with a nice garlic butter sauce.

The penalty was a suspension. The school has every right to refuse access to anyone, on any grounds
Actually, that statement is 100% wrong. But if you were educated in the American Public School system, I'm not surprised that you think that.
No no, he said they smell bad. Must be sourdough.
Well, if you're going there, why not just remember to pack your Cyclone?

The biggest fucking microscope in the Universe. Where do you think all that Haliburton money went?
Fuck, I can't even get Hello World to work on the first compile most of the time.
Except when you percieve innocent things, like gay marriage, as a threat to your self preservation.

Also, a Scottish company cannot expect to successfully market a "McBurger" regardless of how common the "Mc" is in Scottish names.
What if you're the Scottish son of a german guy and you name the sandwhich after yourself?
