I don't know about erroneous' weight issues, or even if he has any--that's his problem, not mine--but my doctor actually gets on my case for being a bit underweight.
Gula Sidan at Stångåvägen 51 is only about a block from our place. They have a deep-dish 'Mexikana' that is just amazing. The place is run by a Turkish family, but their pizza rolls right over the stuff you get from the other pizza place in our 'burb. The latter being run by real Italians... who can't bloody cook.:) In any case, we get pizza from Gula Sidan a couple times a week on average.
BTW, the new Thai joint at Lagaplan 6 isn't bad at all; you might want to give them a try, next time you're in the neighbourhood.
What? Isn't that Obama, Bernanke, Geithner, and the rest of the Legislative branch of the US government? The thing is, only the little guy gets arrested and punished for theft, but if you're a big hedge fund or banker John Corzine type, you get away with murder.
I wouldn't call someone "suspected of masterminding more than $100 million in global bank heists" a "little guy".
BTW, none of those guys you mentioned are accused of running botnets, and none of them work in the Legislative branch, so why are you even bringing them up?
I happen to read International Standard English, so please allow me to translate.

It's not, but offering to sell someone a bootleg copied in China and printed in China after you've landed on US territory with the goods in hand pretty likely is.
I'm with the AC on this one. When I was still single, any interest I might have had in a woman completely and utterly disappeared the instant she typed, "Do u like [whatever]?"
... but when looking, we look for the 100% match because it's easier to find someone who likes the same movies, rather than arguing or trading off preferred movies.
Speak for yourself. I would find "100% compatibility" quite boring.
But then I'm an American ex-pat engaged to a Chinese girl I met in Sweden, so what would I know about "interesting"?
a new markup language that's meant to do pixel perfect rendering (HTML is not, but its used that way)
1. HTML is not a styling language, it's intended to provide document structure and semantics. Only. Please learn what CSS is.
2. We do NOT want "pixel-perfect" layouts on the Web. This wasn't something we wanted in 1997 when we only had to worry about 640x480 vs 800x600 and it's something we want even less with the approximately eleventy-thousand screen sizes/resolutions in use on the ever-expanding plethora of devices people are surfing the Web on today.
There are very, very, VERY good reasons for separating content from presentation.
JavaScript has its little issues, but your lack of understanding of JS object prototyping is not among them.
It is also a very good thing that you can easily view the source of so much of what comes to your browser. You contend that this is bad. I contend that you are wrong.
We must read things quite a bit differently, because what I come away with from that is that a media entity aligned with conservative interests reacted capriciously and childishly when things didn't go their way.
Addressing the main topic, I should add that I also have been using Al-Jazeera's Android app for some time now, along with those from the BBC, Dagens Nyheter (Swedish only) and Deutsche Welle.
I don't usually bother with US news outlets much any more, unless I follow a link to a story on one of their websites, or it's a local thing I hear about from relatives there.
I travel a lot in the Asia-Pacific region, and though I keep trying, I cannot watch CNN for more than a couple of minutes at a time. The other news channels don't even get a look in. It's the BBC World Service, Al Jazeera, or nothing, I'm sorry to say.
SBS is also pretty good (and unlike the ABC, they don't block heaps of their content or their smartphone apps outside Australia).

YOU should care.
It'd be a rotten shame if we couldn't get those nice optical mice any longer...

HTH u dood.
Apparently you don't live in the same Europe as I do, then.
Fuck off, APK.
Wouldn't a better way be... actually to cut down on sugar and other sweeteners?
Depends on how far it is to the Canadian border for him, I guess.

...6 years expat and in almost every country being a foreigner makes pulling incredibly easy.
12 years ex-pat here. It's true--even if you're an American. :)
I'm sorry for your loss. You never get completely over it, but you can and will move on.
It conjures up images of some kind of celestial primate flinging high energy particles about.
Sounds to me like something that'd be hanging out with a dragon.
'Firefox' just makes me think of that lame Eastwood film.
Bravo. My kingdom for a mod point this morning.

The weird scope rules and lack of proper object/class support drive me up the wall...
This tells me you don't really understand JavaScript and especially don't understand JS objects.
But--judging from the number of people who keep trying to turn JS into something else--not many do.
When they start to chuckle at this, offer to show them the letter from your parole board. WFM.
(For those of you just joining us, APK has just discovered recursion and wants to make sure everyone on /. knows it.)
On a US keyboard. Maybe.
I hold an FCC license, have nearly ten years experience in the industry, and am somewhat familiar with the regs.
Which ones do they break?
You seem to be confusing Qatar with Saudi Arabia.
