Problem here in the states is that the tax payers already paid for better infrastructure but we've yet to see the results, and now they're asking for more money!
I use Simeji (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9cmA70cSiA) on Android for Japanese input, it works decently but I don't know how it compares to the iOS input methods.
Kind of off topic but the DS version added a ton to the game (not just multi-player modes.. which were also great), give it a try!

"Also the lead writer had refuted the theory that everyone was dead, in purgatory, in heaven or in hell. Yet, at the end they're clearly in some sort of afterlife. "
This is where you are mistaken. The "afterlife" or purgatory was the sideways world. The characters only went there after they died - however purgatory is "timeless" I thought Christian explained this bit pretty well to Jack. This is the secret the characters realized when they touched one another - they were dead and in purgatory. Once they were done with purgatory they were ready to leave - like Locke when I forgave himself and allowed himself to be fixed. Earlier when Desmond and Hurley bribe Ana Lucia Hurley asks why they don't take Ana - Desmond responds that she isn't ready yet. She still has to beat whatever is holding her back in purgatory. Ben makes a conscious decision to stay.
I hope that clears up some of your issues with the purgatory thing - I do agree there were way too many unanswered questions (who got shot in the boat during the flashing sequences, Walt's significance, etc.).
The only period warmer than today was the medieval warm period - which was regional to Europe only. Evidence points to the world mean temperature at that time lower than today.
The problem right now at least for plant and animal life is the rate of climate change is drastically more rapid than ever before. This is why we need to work on more carbon neutral solutions to produce energy.
"No, they changed "global warming" to "climate change" because idiots like you thought "global warming" meant that every single point on the planet would monotonically increase year-over-year, and to a lesser extent because "climate change" is more accurate anyway because the increase in carbon dioxide has other effects too, such as ocean acidification. Unfortunately, they failed to consider that idiots like you would think this is more evidence of a massive global conspiracy to steal your freedom and monies."
This guy was being sarcastic? Because he is absolutely correct.
:) Obviously facetious, however I would say 'we' don't like software patents, stifle growth, creativity, etc. Except, they don't really, but, they kinda do. So, yeah, that's our stance.
I thought that supporting the artist generally meant going to their concert not buying their CD - the record companies get the majority of the CD sells, correct?
There will be no video iPod anytime soon. Only Airport AV. The only way the iPod gets to play at this stage is by being a remote for the expected Airport AV.
According to the UN Department of Peackekeping Operations, the United States of America has a grand total of 344 personal deployed on UN missions. 315 of them are civilian police, most being deployed to with UNMK, the mission in Kossovo.
Wow, they need to check their facts. I got back from Kosovo (1 s) in March. When we left we were replaced by a fair number of troops. I'm not allowed to disclose exact numbers but well over 1,000 soldiers replaced us in just our small area of operations. So, either you can't read, or the web site whose facts you borrowed (without linking to) are wrong.
As a member of the national guard that just got back from LA I agree. When I arrived at the Superdome the people there (not everyone) did not make an effort to leave. I watch the news and they report that the government wasn't letting them leave (wrong, we had busses waiting to take people). The folks just didn't want to wait in line. Some had legitimate excuses, but for most it was "I want to let the women and the children go first." These were folks with families, wives, kids - waiting for everyone else with wives and kids to go first. Ridiculous. To evacuate the Superdome we had to line up and march forward, telling people to get in line for the busses. When they listened to us everyone was out in less than a day.
I lay the blame on the people who did not evacuate in time, not the feds, not the mayor (although I do dislike the way he is slamming the federal government, when he should be slamming his governor...)
Times like this I wish there was a "reverse-moderation" moderation. The first 4 posts of this topic are moderated "Redundant." That's just not right. How annoying.
Didn't we already go over sales figures? Xizer had somewhat of a point, even if he did come off as a bit of a flame. Anyway the old school Game Boy holds the most weight as the handheld icon.
Basically from what I remember (not necessarily in this article) Sony tried to force Nintendo to pay licensing fees for each console sold, and give them the rights to make their own console that would play the same games which Ninty would have no control over. But I'm a fanboy and may have twisted that up a bit in my head.

Raises the question! Begging the question is a logical fallacy that has to do with circular logic.
In my anecdotal experience yours is the more common story as well.

If you don't understand why destroying ecosystems in the oceans that we depend on will matter to us then I believe you are beyond my help.

Yes, there is plenty of evidence it will matter to us. Sea level rise will cause displacement of coastal regions. Sea life will be screwed. More of Australia will be made uninhabitable. Here is a video of what will happen to the Ocean in a 2*C warmer world: http://www.wired.com/video/latest-videos/latest/1815816633/oceans-in-a-2c-warmer-world/57194711001

BTW absolute Capitalism doesnt work either. See USA for details
Nice attempt at sounding intelligent.

Right, and staying warm in the winter/cool in the summer plus shelter from carniverous animals isn't important. Tool.

iPod Linux allows some form of video iPod at least =)

Thanks, and have a nice day.
These people will easily be able to see right through this decieteful childsplay.
I wouldn't be too sure of that. I like your positive attitude though.
The article mentions that it was just a gaming server set up by a few employees who didn't put any security on it:
"There was no major breach of security here," Barney said. "Needless to say, we are taking the appropriate steps" to address the situation.
So, you should be safe.

What do you mean the Feds didn't care? Who has responsibility for the levees anyway? Maybe I'm wrong but I assumed it was LA/New Orleans.

Pretty much how I felt too. For me the definite genre of the 1990's was the RPG (Chrono Trigger, Earthbound, FF, etc).
