They should put the Robert Jordan stuff there as well since he seems to be writing an unending exploitation of his first couple of ok books.
BINGO! Bang on the "money" (the key reason I think it's dragging on)! Back when it first came out in the early 90's (or late 80's??) I enjoyed "The Eye of the World", probably "the great hunt" as well as the 3rd installment.
Speaking of TOR (as someone else mentioned), don't waste your money on Terry Goodkind as he seems to get many of his ideas for the "sword of truth" series from Jordan's "wheel of time" (although one could probably argue all sci-fi/fantasy in the last 15 years is cud [regurgitated & chewed around] - i haven't read enough of it to seriously comment). Heh, maybe they're even the same person?
Have these researchers for a moment stopped to consider that hours spent glued to some machine instead of interacting with ones peers is the cause of "anxieties"
have you stopped for a moment to consider that the hours/days spent being tormented by your peers in early school may have actually attributed to these "anxieties"? a machine has never done anything mean to me, but childhood was hell for many people.
any anxiety i've ever had (that i'm aware of) has come from the childhood/adolescent abuse that is ""normal"" (another load bs - the normal bit)
I just orderd online and received music from Castle Von Buhler Records. I would suggest learning abou and contacting people like them to see how they have done things.
Ever wake up at night, covered in a cold sweat, wondering what will happen to the world when a nation of teenagers whose only experience with written English is Instant Messenger grows up?
No, I don't "wake up in a cold sweat". Language and spelling is a human invention - with rules devised by humans that are usually adhered to but that's the beauty of it - our or the next generation can change it to suit their needs. In the end, spelling is irrelevant and has constantly been evolving - its the meaning that is important.
The company is claiming 80% the performance of the GeForce 4 TI 4600 at a price tag of less than $100 USD including DX 9 support. How?
Usually in these situations, the marketing dept. designed the spec's for a less than wonderful implementation by the tech dept resulting in the usual h/w crud where we cringe at the mention of their name - cyrix, celeron, early AMD, Acer CDROM's, hellokitty, etc...
HEhehehe you musn't have been there. It was 30C inside the building for 3 of the 4 days and 36C outside. There were a few systems having a bit o' heating problems (the silicon and pink fleshy ones too). BUT it was a shit-load-o'-fun.
Fragapalooza sponsored this year by Voodoo (check out the goods they gave away) with Intel (processors galore), Shaw (net access), etc... I'm not affiliated with any of those companies but they did a helluva job to make it a good time.
It happens yearly (incidentally, last weekend). 4 days of non-stop gaming, contests & silliness. Lots of case mods (my fav was the labatts blue fridge system). A buddy of mine won a can of SPAM for the best "Ghetto mod" PC - a beat up gateway with duct-tape keeping the cover on.
3 & 4AM Sunday MOHAA: funnies included 'nade dancing, an orgy, an unsuccessful congo line (some dumbass kept dropping nades) and a human pyramid.
Official tourney's were were 5v5 Counterstrike (blech!), 4v4 RA3, and an Xbox Halo tourney. See the site for the give-a-way goodies & details.
It was loads of fun and I'll definitely be back next year. We even had a guy from Washington state (but the guy arrived with a fried HDD). And wow...chicks...and 1 in a skipping contest, no less...*droool*
Well, I think blocking a TLD penalizes non-spammers to the point of breaking up the open communication chain of Internet email
OR, it would put pressure on the hosts in a particular TLD to play nice.
still: blocking a TLD doesn't let spam through, spammer's lose as their goal isn't to get blocked but to get their scheme's into sucker's inboxes.
lol, no, i'm not concerend about "moderation" points. It's just funny how (good or bad) posts constructed to be against the "collective" are to moderators as shiny beads to fish:)
pretty pictures are fore ENTERTAINMENT
this site is for ENTERTAINMENT
the movies was full of ENTERTAINMENT
the movie may also have been a statement on how "society" is stuck in a rut on "how things should be"
if you are going to slam it, give some reasonable information to back up your opinsions. The site doesn't need to fit your luddite view of how things should be.
We can't stop fighting last Tuesday's war until we've actually begun and until we know exactly who the enemy is (although ONE great suspect).
Only the naieve wouldn't think they wouldn't use an airplane as a bomb. You can't say "nobody" thought of it kuz I wondered about that YEARS ago (YEARS ago, I was in highschool. Gee...we have something very mobile, highly explosive and as common as the Gideon bible.
There are still thousands of planes out there that could be used as a weapon. It's one thing to close the barn after the horse is out and completely different stupidity to leave the door open when you get the horse back in.
The question is "What are they going to do *next*"?
Think anything that has A LOT of fuel - truck tankers, train tankers, hell, maybe even ocean tankers, just to disrupt our lives...but they are as maneuverable as a train so who knows.
Don't forget, "they" are not necesarily Muslim extremists. "They" can be *any* extremist so Joe Whiteboy can do it too, and likely have an easier time doing it.
IMHO, the pilot should be locked up front and never disturbed. They are BUSY up there and they shouldn't hafta play policeman. Any idiot could take over one of these planes and overpower two people crammed in a cockpit. I am honestly surprised this hasn't happened sooner, any idiot could have done it. It did NOT require massive terrorist resources...hell, it didn't require any resources except for those that others own (the airlines).
Ehhhh, that isn't the first FPS, or even the first wildly popular FPS
Had the poster or timmy bothered to READ the article, they might have mentioned that it was specifically talking about MULTIPLAYER 3D gaming. It was the first wildly popular MULTIPLAYER 3D shoot-em-up game. I was there and at the time, Ace of Base was too.
I was once a hardcore "Outlook" user but last October I switched to this:
http://www.junglemate.com
and I'll never go back - so far it has everything I need and accessing all my mail from practically anywhere is the only way to go. When your mailbox fills up, they defer for a day & then bounce your mail instead of automagically deleting:)
Heh, Since I got broadband up here I haven't been able to AFFORD buying a CD and with DMX (wide selection music over cable) my urge has decreased as well.

We're targeting individuals for the /. effect now? What'd this guy ever do to you? Barbarians.
No, it orbits the sun once per year, just like everyone else. It just equates to 288 earth years :P

Yeah, by book pricing standards, we in Canada are each U.S. currency multi-millionaires.

That is a crock! If their goal was to get closed off, THEN they'd be winning.
But it isn't. They are sending SPAM. Block them off, NO SPAM from them. They lose, you win.
The moderators fell right in to your "I'll fly in the face of majority to get mod points" ploy.

Ehh....Are we talking about Slashdot now? or Spykids?
The KEY WORD in the PDF was MULTIPLAYER and something like "wildy popular".
I think you owe the dear professor an apology.
