Actually, there's too much money at stake for good science to rule the day. I expect the green energy billionaires to pressure the IPCC to alter their predictions before this report is officially released.

... it'll join the Surface and Windows Phone? Perhaps they should stick to video game consoles...

I thought the factual (as opposed to most likely) story was:

1) Al Qaeda planned attacks for 9-11.
2) The videos had absolutely nothing to do with them.
3) The Obama administration used the video as an excuse to cover up their security/intelligence failures.

State Department: Libya Consulate Attack Not Preceded By Protest

There may have been other unrelated protests elsewhere, some maybe even about the stupid video, but that's not what these articles are referencing.

I thought the whole "YouTube video sparked violent protests" thing had been thoroughly debunked. Nobody had seen the video in question. The "protests" were actually coordinated terrorist attacks to coincide with 9-11. Forgive me if I'm wrong there.

I guess there's no point in debating you with facts and evidence then, is there?

Re: OK, UBS: Now please repeat the research with coffee.

I'd rather see it for bacon.

I did it with nested loops in ColdFusion. There are 33 "w" lengths and 48 "e" lengths. 11 "n" and 19 "s". Had to limit the outer loop because my server would time out, but with a bit of grinding I was able to generate a list of all the tiles.

You really have to admire Marvel for how well they've handled their movie franchises the past decade, especially the Avengers arc. It's hard not to be in awe of what transpired to bring The Avengers to fruition. They made smart choices which eventually paid off handsomely. DC, outside the Nolan films, has botched everything. Warner Bros. just doesn't trust creative people to handle the material.

If you think that's all the Uncharted series is, then you haven't played it. It has its rails, but they're needed for what is an unmatched gaming experience.

I threw my $99 behind the project. Hopefully it turns out to be a fun system. That's a hell of a lot less than I paid for either my phone or my Playstation3. I don't expect to be playing Uncharted on the thing at that price... I just expect to play something comparable to what I have on my phone. My kids play iPod games for hours on end, so this console will see use one way or the other.

An article from January 2009? Seriously? Would you like to cite some articles on Phrenology while you're at it?

Don't go confusing the guy with math, now.

Clearly you should switch to Timeline format for all content.

Yep - stick is on the left of the wheel.
