second link is nice
there won't be unoccupied pretty young girls for you to save because they are snapped up so quickly like endurium after 10 hours into the start of a new round
that's one of the many benefits of being a pretty young woman, or even just a pretty woman or a young woman; there's always help available in return for some niceties; and the beauty of it is why stop with only one woman?
so ultimatly who cares about the young men, really? plenty more where that came from and they only have so many uses
I would like some of those crouching polish police officers and that israeli girl pls
ahahahah I had written a totally outrageous post that I konw I sohlund bost , so i didnt hahahaha
the arrogant prick
the dude who launches an assault on a critical, irreplacable win or lose building in your base then starts instisting you resign from the game "because otherwise it would take too long" after he notices you launched the same type of assault on him a couple seconds later
"That's why I like RTSs.. They can't beat you with that random button smashing there"
lol, no they beat you with superfast button mashing
ironically if you want to change anything in a complicated machinery like US politicas you have to move with the flow - GWB didn't and he barely achieved anything
what do you think obama will do when he comes into office? who would he get rid of other than the usual politically appointed folks that get fired anyway whenever a different party president gets elected?
yes Wright was definatly taking shots at obama, I mentionned it with the wright quote on politicians the opening post
but the question remains: how much of Wrights positions did Obama support before denouncing him?
there will not be a military coup against obama
if the establishment takes any action against him it will be aimed at making him a lame duck president and if necessary they will pull a kennedy/mlk assassasination on him
if it were something you'd slap on the copyrighted material itself (like safedisc and securom and whatnot) then you would talk to the major record labels and movie makers (which are the same anyway)
but if by "making it difficult to keep sharing software" you mean it would be an actual programme installed on your computer to prevent sharing software from working then you wouldn't talk to anyone as it would be in violation of people's privacy to install it (without their consent)
I'm watching this as pink suited mika is handing over an award to kylie minogue, things are definatly heating up ![]()
the benefit of bad local government is that most of the crucial decisions are taken at a central level anyway, at best the man can wreck the city's finances in which case you can still turn the city over to accountants afterwards or beg for allowances from the central government ![]()
Obama is somewhere in his forties, and he met Wright somewhere in his twenties. So it's after the age where you might get infatuated with people because you don't know any better. Yet he called him things like 'mentor" and "surrogate father".
"but this time wright went too far, and if any of you listened to the speech yesterday, you could tell how pissed he was"
the problem is that Wrights positions have always been known - he said nothing new in his latest speeches that he didn't say before so it's a bit cheap to shrug it off by saying "The person I saw yesterday was not the person that I met 20 years ago" or "I wasn't there that day"; Obama only started recanting his love for Wright after it dawned on his campaign that Wright was a liability. The implication of this whole Wright affair is not only that Obama is a practicer of the politique politicienne after all, but also that he privatly genuinly supports a good deal of Wrights extremist positions.
So Wright has been Obama's pastor for about 20 years and is known for some outrageous stances on various issues, many of which can be described as unproven science (black kids score lower on typical (white oriented) intelligence tests because they think with different parts of the brain) provocative (e.g. god damn america) and some of which are downright nasty and could be described as racist and hate speech (e.g. AIDS was genetically engineered to kill off black people). He's also known as an opinionated preacher, meaning he does not hold back on his personal (political) views on subjects during his sermon so it's likely he has held sermons or most if not all of his views in church.
As the preachings of Wright started to trickle into the media Obama quickly held a speech where he claimed that he sat in church but not necessarily agreed with what Wright was saying and that he felt some of Wright's positions were indeed outrageous. Now I think it's a bit hard to have someone as a pastor for years in spite of such sentiments, but I agree with the basic premisse that just because you're listening all the time doesn't mean you're agreeing all the time. I guess you could call this a 90
Lynchings in Congo as penis theft panic hits capital
http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSL2290323220080422
KINSHASA (Reuters) - Police in Congo have arrested 13 suspected sorcerers accused of using black magic to steal or shrink men's penises after a wave of panic and attempted lynchings triggered by the alleged witchcraft.
Reports of so-called penis snatching are not uncommon in West Africa, where belief in traditional religions and witchcraft remains widespread, and where ritual killings to obtain blood or body parts still occur.
Rumors of penis theft began circulating last week in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo's sprawling capital of some 8 million inhabitants. They quickly dominated radio call-in shows, with listeners advised to beware of fellow passengers in communal taxis wearing gold rings.
Purported victims, 14 of whom were also detained by police, claimed that sorcerers simply touched them to make their genitals shrink or disappear, in what some residents said was an attempt to extort cash with the promise of a cure.
"You just have to be accused of that, and people come after you. We've had a number of attempted lynchings. ... You see them covered in marks after being beaten," Kinshasa's police chief, Jean-Dieudonne Oleko, told Reuters on Tuesday.
Police arrested the accused sorcerers and their victims in an effort to avoid the sort of bloodshed seen in Ghana a decade ago, when 12 suspected penis snatchers were beaten to death by angry mobs. The 27 men have since been released.
"I'm tempted to say it's one huge joke," Oleko said.
"But when you try to tell the victims that their penises are still there, they tell you that it's become tiny or that they've become impotent. To that I tell them, 'How do you know if you haven't gone home and tried it'," he said.
Some Kinshasa residents accuse a separatist sect from nearby Bas-Congo province of being behind the witchcraft in revenge for a recent government crackdown on its members.
"It's real. Just yesterday here, there was a man who was a victim. We saw. What was left was tiny," said 29-year-old Alain Kalala, who sells phone credits near a Kinshasa police station.
omg I can't believe nobody made a thread about this dire problem X(
the problem with nuclear power is that it is not a renewable resource, uranium is going to run out too
"As the dollar has fallen, and oil has risen, the Euro vs. oil has seen little impact in true value."
mitigated yes, but it's false that there has been "little impact" a rise from a couple of dozens $ per barrel to over 70$ a barrel in euro equivalents does not have little impact
do not underestimate the strength of compound interest, most powerful force in teh universe according to einstein I think ![]()
I can see obama becoming president because mccain isn't very popular amongst many republicans
but really the man sat in a church with a political priest dissing america and stayed seated plus he's (like other politicians) rumours of financial irregularities on him as well as a political programme that isn't much more concrete than "change" -
he really isn't some fairy tale candidate some people make him out to be
aha... both very helpful tips, silly mods accusing me of spamming x(
you jerks ![]()
