However, corporations are treated as people in American law. This means that they should also be socially concious in the same ways that actual people are supposed to be.
You also have to take into account what would happen if the friendly nation that supplies Componant X (for any important item) gets attacked, overthrown, or wiped off the map.
According to the preview they gave of the DS game, the touch screen will be used to remove some obstacles (such as ice blocks) and to trace specific patterns in order to land the killing blow on bosses.
In fact, the game is supposed to be played on the lower (touch) screen with the upper screen reserved for the map.
Actually, since China is communist, the argument could be made that it may indeed impact the buisnesses in the country as well...
Apart from that, am I the only one that's a bit uneasy about this - especially considering the fact that China is where a lot of companies are starting to outsource now instead of India?
Okay, in that case let's go with the Guide to Grammar and Style hosted at Rutgers.
Please note that I'm not being adversarial. I just really enjoy language, and intelligent debate is always welcome as long as I'm not pressed for time or otherwise engaged.
Paragraphs. There's no hard-and-fast rule for the length of a paragraph: it can be as short as a sentence or as long as it has to be. Just remember that each paragraph should contain only one developed idea. A paragraph often begins with a topic sentence which sets the tone of the paragraph; the rest amplifies, clarifies, or explores the topic sentence. When you change topics, start a new paragraph. Be sure your paragraphs are organized to help your argument along. Each paragraph should build on what came before, and should lay the ground for whatever comes next. Mastering transitions can make a very big difference in your writing.
A matter of mechanics and house style: it's customary (at least in America) to indicate new paragraphs in most prose by indenting the first line (three to five spaces), with no skipped lines between paragraphs. Business memos and press releases tend to skip a line and not indent. (As you can see from this guide, most Web browsers use the skip-a-line-and-don't-indent style.) In papers for English classes, don't-skip-but-indent is preferable. [Entry revised 14 July 2000]
definition 1) "A distinct division of written or printed matter that begins on a new, usually indented line, consists of one or more sentences, and typically deals with a single thought or topic or quotes one speaker's continuous words"
Actually, a proper paragraph is a sentence or collection of sentences based on one topic (or sub-topic of a broader field). The three sentence "rule" that they teach you in grade school isn't true, and will be chuckled at by pretty much every collegit-level english teacher you'll ever meet.
Having said that, this post is two paragraphs while being a total of only three sentences.
Everything minus the investigation. The directors knew I wouldn't have even though I was more than capable.
Still being in touch with some of my (non-IT) coworkers there, things went to hell pretty quickly. Aparently they nearly rioted because I wasn't there anymore and I'm still mentioned fairly frequently heh
Actually, not everyone who wanted this is a "teen lush" wanting to get wasted without their parents knowing about it.
It's been a big gripe of mine for several years that I was unable to get certain wines (meads, mostly) that I wanted because it was illegal to ship them to my home.
Now I can finally get it again without having to futz with convincing the local stores to order it for me.

Yes, he's always pissed off and lives in a fantasy land where everything is free.
Can we put him out of our misery yet?
You break into peoples' places to make sure no one can break into their places?

Another way to "fight terrorism".
Just what we need...
I would hope so as well, but I doubt that it's very likely in the United States.

I'm not sure that's a sight you'd want to see. Most of the geek girls that I know are also martial artists. =]

What's with the deep fried candybars anyway?
They just sound disgusting to me...
To be a manager usually requires at least a BA in B.S.
Please not that there is no BS in B.S. as it is a fine art and not an exact science =]
the Man in Black hmm?
Interesting user name. Does it refer to your Cosa Nostra Pizza uniform? =]
It may just be that he only has another semester left in order to get the minor. This seems more likely since he said he enjoys the subject material.
"For example, just about every engineer can hack out a FORTRAN or C program, but almost no CS people can do engineering."
and "hack" (as in done blindly with an axe) would be an appropriate description of the way many of them "program".
Trust me. I've seen code from people with what you call "real degrees"

Yes, they run private buisnesses - in much the same way as members of the Cosa Nostra do.

Hopefully that source meets with your approval.

What does AT&T have to do with this?
Can I send the GP presents for doing us all a favor? Now we can finally stop hearing the free vs "Free" discussions!

I can honestly say that someone tried that before (for different reasons).
I happily dealt with my frustration by breaking his arm at the elbow =]
What can I say? I'm rather attached to my head. I've had it for a while.
