Not on my first/last/only flight 5 years ago. Twin prop engine, only 4 seats wide, out of a small town airport on behalf of Delta. Not everything is a jumbojet out of LAX/Seatac/ect...
I have never trusted reviews, and the recent duke forever launch just reaffirmed my views. Almost everything I've read says it's a terrible game, not even worth the $5 bin. When I actually tried it myself, I liked it, a lot. I'm not too fond of the 2-weapon system enforcing ammo scarcity, or the ego system that makes duke a real pussy in the health department, but the game is fun enough to make me want to keep playing it. Though I do hope they either patch that crap out and give us a real health/weapon system, or at the very least someone mods it.
Can't remember why now but I pretty much started with RFAS, RF forward/back, AS strafes, V crouch. Worked great with tribes, d to deploy, g grenade, e zoom in. Certain combos didn't work though, locking the keyboard for a second while it angrily beeped at me.
Fee for entry to football games, concession stand revenue, bake sales and car washes to pay for school trips, heck the activity fee they charge the students to sign up for the team in the first place. Plus behind doors you have donations and grants from private entities, advertising revenue from scoreboards and flyers/calendars/programs.
Even my school's pitiful football team that lost homecoming every freakin year got a bigger budget than every other non-sports activity combine.
Custom models would be a great use for this by games workshop themselves. Put a 3d model viewer on their website, let players pick the model, armor, facial expression, weapons, and gear, and let them pose the figure by manipulating the joints. With that model saved to a server the player could order it online or take a code to a local game shop (that has a licensed model printer) and get it printed right there.
Oye, the Vault... Worst part about working the music shop in disneyland, having to explain to people why the best movies were not being sold anymore. Hell, we got all our info on vault locked titles not from corp HQ or anything official, we used a 3-ring binder filled with printouts from ultimatedisney.com
So sue 10 John Doe Millionaires, and when you get your summary judgment you now have 10 "gimme your money" vouchers to apply to any millionaires you feels like. Exactly what they're doing here.
Because of the reserves keeping prices artificially low, nat gas drillers have not been harvesting the helium from their output for quite a long time now. Decades of released helium because it's not profitable. Fracking is a much newer tech, and is not the only method of nat gas drilling. Not all nat gas drilling involves fracking.
Forget that, reprogram it to display whatever license number you want. Imagine a blackmarket iphone app that does image recognition on a snapshot of a vehicle to determine the make/model/year of a car they're stealing, and search a database of plate numbers for a suitable replacement from an identical car belonging to a cops wife or some elected official.
These plus e-ink pixels embedded into a cart's paintjob, your getaway car can go from a red camaro with plates matching the chief of police's mistress, to a white camaro with a yellow flamejob and plates registered to an out of town restaurant manager.
Actually it's more like buying a car that you cannot take insurance out on or keep in a garage at night. Sure you can still drive it, but if something wrecks your car you're SOL and have to fork over the purchase price again.
We're averaging about 2 a week so far this year at work, mostly vundo but some koobface and others just identified as generic trojans. I have verified via their histories that the only pages visited were major news, weather, and portal sites (fox news, msn, cnn, weather.com, they skim the articles without heading off to other sites). 350 person government office with all microsoft updates pushed to clients after a 1 week research period, and Symantec with latest definitions enforced on all clients via login scripts.
Unfortunately for us we are forced to use IE for a couple required pages, though I am working on getting a suitable deployment of firefox ready with IEtab and adblock plus preinstalled.
This is your janitor, give me his job with a 50% pay increase or I distribute those pictures from the christmas party of you and the secretary with the copier, the firehose from the third floor, and that poor, poor goat. Next time don't leave the memory card in your top drawer "cleverly" hidden under the candy bar.
Wyoming tops that list. It also has the largest shale oil deposit in the world (enough to meet current consumption for something like 180 years). It is the second largest natural gas producer in the US. It's the largest Uranium producer in the US. And the area between cheyenne and casper (a roughly 25x100 mile corridor) is one of the best for wind power in the US.
Yeah, our little half million person state has a very bright future.
Or you live in an area where 1/3rd of the people live 5+ miles from city limits. Or an area where it gets -10 before windchill during the winter on a warm day, and becomes quite deadly for anyone not young and healthy to walk more than a couple blocks. Ooo, or how about the general populace is so ignorant and deserving of the title redneck that a handful of people end up in the ER every month from beer bottle concussions thrown from muddy trucks doing anything from 30-75mph in town, just because they were walking or riding a bike.
Or gee, maybe you're like me and live in an area that's all of the above. Try living somewhere that doesn't have a bus stop every 2 blocks...
Almost 24 hours a day? You mean this thing gets a break every day? Damn robot rights lobby! Next thing you know it'll be asking for weekends and holidays off!
We're paying something like $750/month each for 3 T1 point to points between our main office and our 3 field offices. Might be per end, might be both ends, all I know is we pay through the nose for this crappy service. Not to mention all the lost productivity waiting for large files, or even windows updates, to traverse the network.
If google wants a rural test bed, I guarantee they would be well received by state officials in wyoming.

Wouldn't be a slashdot article without a couple guys hamming it up.

That would be unidirectional traffic only, and data leakage from the palin emails would contaminate the oil carrier. No one would buy oil that sour.

His ears still always face the camera, even if it means they're drawing him with one on the back of his neck and one at the top of his head.

Better make that 2012, they're having some problems migrating from the Knockknock engine to the Insovietrussia engine.

And a "known to cause cancer" warning label taking up half the visible space.
Watt are you talking about, that was actually a decent pun.

You show them what little capacitance for suffering their antics you have, and induct them into a local orphanage.
