umm, damage to the earth's crust isn't the problem.. Granted a big crater could be an inconvience, but not mass worldly extintction. The problem is all the heat that is generated from an impact that could be life ending. And how is the atmosphere a bullet proof vest? A bulletproof vest isn't necessary me to live. Yet a planet without atmosphere isn't very conducive to life..
Are you serious?

Storyline was the only thing that could sell RPGs in the days before 'awesome cutscene graphics'. People certainly weren't buying them for nonstop action. FFVI did not center around one central whiny guy who had trouble talking to women (which is why i presume FFVII relates to so many gamers) but rather FFVI develops 12 main characters! FFX does have a good story, if you forget about the dismal ending.
You make claims like FF7 and FFX are revolutionary, but provide no examples. Perhaps only that they were the first FF on each respective system (PSX and PS2). Revolutionary was the Job system in FFIII or Espers system in FFVI (which materia then expands upon) And you can't compare sales numbers between the two titles as gaming scene was tremendously different. It was not even conceivable to sell 2.5 million copies in a weekend of any game during snes days. Gaming exploded with the playstation/n64 releases. As far as game sales go, FFVI did very well for a snes game.
And yeah FFIV is good too.. minus kain.
If you've read the article you would discover that it is not about vacuum energy. Its been known for a long time that vacuum energy generates no excess energy. Rather this article was concerning the dark energy that continually pushes our universe apart and how that can be accounted for.
Well sure, you can ignore government bias, but the problem is not what information the government is giving you, the problem is what information the government isn't giving you. You think the government is going to investigate its own scandals? You can't give feedback to change something if you don't know whats wrong with it. North Korea has a government run media, and trust me, its not anything like the BBC. And you can easily stop watching ABC, if enough people stop watching thats when changes are made, shows get cancelled all the time from the lack of viewership.
So where is ABC supposed to make revenue then? Or any other station? While I dislike commercials just like everyone else, commercials are part of the service the station provides, it is how TV gets paid for. What company is going to advertise where no one will see their advertisement? I think a company has every right to try and protect their main source of revenue from being circumvented by 3rd party products.
I prefer commercials over, lets say, government funded media.
While there are many problems with this story, the worst is that director Robert Mueller password was broken from a simple dictionary attack. Who is in charge of network security at the FBI, elmo?
The password of the day is Apple.
Of course I did, even though it doesn't mean much because I am not a constituent of Alaska. But my message read

Hopefully its not delayed by an enomorous ammount of material
Why would people choose not to buy Vista if this feature was introduced there? WGA would not affect people choosing to purchase legal copies of Vista unless they were concerned about WGA 'phoning home' which isn't really the discussion here.
Yet, when the public learns about those details the would-be politician is automatically done for
Automatically done for!? As far as pot smoking goes, that has not affected the outcome of the last 4 presidential elections. Clinton smoked but did not "inhale" and George W. was just "really young and irresponsible". And these are just some of the minor "socially questionable things" these presidents have done, yet they still got elected.
If you are trying to teach your students programming concepts, then an IDE is better.
But if you are more concerned with them learning the language, I'd stay away from IDE's
A hypothetical war with China is just that... Hypothetical. We will never go to war with China as long as we are dependant on their imports. The U.S. government knows this as well. Hence why we 'ignore' their violation of human rights, nuclear development. Both things which have been more than enough reason to go to war in the past. If any country has any sense, it seems obvious that leaving space a peaceful place is more beneficial than creating another battleground.

How long it takes to finish? THats the thing about MMORPG's.. they just keep going and going and going.
When you're stuck in a guest that takes 5 hours of your time, you're going to spend a lot of time playing that game

IV is 4 you idiot!!! oh wait.. did i miss the joke?
FFIV is great, minus Kain, there is no rhyme or reason why he keeps switching sides.

No event is random once you understand the concepts behind what makes the event.

Perhaps this has something to do with Yahoo being sued over alleged pay-per-click fraud Just throwing it out there.

who cites wikipedia as a source> ... it is like citing george bush, sure what he says might be true, but who the hell cares about what he has to say?
