Yep, you are doing something wrong, because any FPS style game that I have played on any console (sorry, I don't have the time or inclination to set up a gamers rig) the top buttons (L1, L2, R1, R2) are the ones that fire. Most people would use their index fingers to do such, not their thumbs.

Is it in the public's interest for individual officers to have their names, pictures, addresses and photographs of their houses published to the world?
Would you appreciate it if that were done to yourself?

Now imagine that you work out in public, and there are people with whom you come into contact (and reprimand) who may have violent tendencies. Can you imagine that? Good! Now ask yourself those first two questions again. Do you still think that that information is in the public interest?

Oh wait, you posted on Slashdot as an Anonymous Coward, so obviously you fear anyone finding out anything about yourself, yet you most likely don't do anything more dangerous than working at McDonalds.

Just for the icing on the cake, her blog is called "I HeArTE JADE" which to me (I may be reading into this the wrong way) comes across as "I HATE JADE" and even a quick perusal of the site leads me to believe that she is acting out of pure vindictiveness, while trying to pretend that it is out of awe and respect.

Knowledge = Power
Time = Money

Substitute into the equation "Power = Work/Time":
Knowledge = Work/Money

Rearrange:
Money = Work/Knowledge

Therefore as
Knowledge --> 0
Money --> Infinite
Regardless of the amount of work done

I really would like to know where this comes from. Is it from real research, or is it merely an "old wives tale?" Something that "everyone knows."

My reasoning is that when I was younger we had a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. That particular breed of dog has an expected life span is only between seven and ten years yet ours, who ate chocolate at least twice a week for her entire life, lived to be 14.

Surprised, why?

When?

Remember it? I still have it in a box in my cupboard... hmm, wonder if I can get it to run on my Mac with WINE*. Anyone tried it yet

*I haven't installed WINE on the Mac yet, as I haven't had any need for it to date

Really? Are you sure? Because I live in Australia... I visit electronics stores, and I see a LOT (read that as 98.394%) of DVD players which have the "Region 4" logo on them. LG, Sony, Panasonic, Pioneer, Sanyo, Sharp, you name it. Having said that, most of the time it is a pretty simple thing to region unlock them, but they are still shipped, and sold, as region 4. Most of the DVD players that you see around that are sold region unlocked are the no brand generic DVD players.

From Wikipedia (yes, I know it isn't the final say in any argument):

From what I gather, from visiting the ACCC website, DVD players can still be sold in Australia locked to Region 4, however it is not illegal for them to be modified to play all regions. There is a case that is mentioned in regards to this dated in 2002 regarding Playstation 2, mod chips and region locked games.

NOOOO!!! Then we won't be any good at sport anymore

Sorry, you are bringing up David Hicks? A man who was fighting AGAINST Australia? A treasonous piece of gutter filth? As far as I'm concerned he should still be detained, and that is only because we do not have capital punishment, otherwise I'd be pushing for the death penalty. The man is GUILTY of TREASON, you cannot deny that fact.

As for the Greens, they come across as being just a little bit too socialist (or perhaps "social idealist") for my liking. A lot of their policies have very little to do with the real world, and a lot to do with a fantasy world of their own devising. Bob Brown's "get fucked over Iraq" as you so eloquently put it, was nothing more than political grandstanding.

That is why he is against the destruction of virgins... self preservation

Hmm... does that mean that if Senator Stephen Conroy's internet filter gets built, I can get a medical prescription to download porn?
