So you admit you are ignorant of the art of the day. BASIC was never intended for working code. This is given in the first word of the acronym: "Beginners"

You'd at least capitalize it as "Vrije Universiteit", because it's a proper noun* and those are capitalized (in either English or Dutch).

*Not just a free university, but the Free University.

And Liberty University is already taken.

Liberty University is called that instead of "Free University" because it is neither free-as-in-beer nor free-as-in-speech. It teaches the religion of Capitalism and the legal principles of the Bible.

"Rocks for Jocks"

No, the article itself mentions the impact difference between the two sides should be less than 1%.

The near side had much more surface in a liquid state during and after many of the impacts. The article claims heat from the Earth was the cause.

Drawing comparisons to WWII is ironic, because the F-35 program is exactly the kind of program that the US did not invest in during the war. A program that consumed lots of resources on the promise of radical advances without delivering anything actually useful onto the battlefield now.

Germany in contrast, spent lots of time on such projects even into the final desperate days.

Yes, let's kept paying the crony capitalists lest we be left defenseless. So many people have been nonchalant about the economic damage this system has caused to our country, so I can only hope the security damage is more successful in grabbing their attention.

Even if this project met its goals, it would still be extremely underwhelming... especially on cost-benefit analysis. Starting over is the right choice.

Any Borderlands 2 players?

I suddenly realize that Dubai may have been the inspiration for the not-yet-built city of Opportunity.

There is also a difference between rhetoric and propaganda.

Conflation of copyright infringement with theft is a case of the latter.

They will but none of their customers will.

Think I have heard similar things before:

I think that is called current events.

How do I know you aren't one of THEM. I bet you have managed to infect my computer with some ultrasonic malware by responding to my initial post. Do not respond to this post I don't want any more of your malware.

They sit there and hem and haw over it, then start asking all sorts of questions like do you have any capital gains, 1099 income, gambling profits/losses. The auditor then wandered off to "check" some things comes back asks more stupid questions and wanders off again. Then apparently after gathering everything he needed sat down and questioned every line on my 1040 EZ form. I probably spent close to 7 hours at the Minneapolis IRS office 5 of which were sitting in a waiting room and 2 for the actual audit. I agree that you view of what should of happened is what I was thinking was going to happen since it was a 1040EZ with a single W2 and it took me like 5 minutes to fill out originally. I figured I would be in and out in about the time it took to actually do my return initially.

The only upright lamps we have are either in the master bedroom or are behind other furniture so they can't be tipped over. Kids do seem to like the strobe effect of flicking a light on and off as quickly as they can though. Then add in the arguments they get in over who gets to turn on the light and the back and forth of them turning it on and off while arguing over who gets to turn the light on and it is a wonder that those CFLs make it 2 years. I gather that LED bulbs do much better with this duty cycle so once the existing bulbs fail they will be replaced with those.
