Ever seen the FBI warning at the beginning of a rented movie? It's exactly the same here in the U.S.

My mind is blown at the number of logical and grammatical problems with this.
Amazon actually does a substantial amount of retailing on their own in addition to acting as the middle man for 3rd party distributors. They own huge distribution centers for their own merchandise, I can't comment on what percentage of stuff on their site is sold by them vs. by 3rd parties though.
Dave Ramsey would be so proud.
Stop trying to nitpick, obviously any ban would apply to both diesel and petrol vehicles.
He's not nitpicking, it is very common to differentiate between petrol and diesel cars in the UK. TFA, on the other hand, specifically mentions that the ban would affect all internal combustion vehicles, fyi.
I used a couple different Arduino boards for several projects during the course of getting my CE (Not exactly EE, but very close), and also played around with them for a few personal projects as well. The CE and EE majors all had to learn the 68hc11 for the actual embedded micro-controllers course, but only a few chose that platform for use when a project actually called for a microcontroller later on for their senior projects.
If you think that an AVR would be a great fit to accomplish what you are trying to do, then Arduino would be a great choice within that category. If you need more beefy memory or processing, an AVR would not be a good choice. You can program it in C, C++, or assembly language, which made it super easy for me to pick up and get going on some fairly complicated projects with a tight timeline.
BTW, I used an Arduino Mega board for my senior project, which was an automated aquarium system. It monitored and controlled all of the aspects of keeping an aquarium running and safe for the fish. It also had an LCD display and keypad for user I/O, and I think that was a great learning experience figuring out how to make a good user friendly I/O. Both the project mentor and the dean of engineering thought that the Arduino was a perfect fit and implemented well, this project did not need a super powerful controller, nor could it have done so simply with just electrical hardware.
It's funny, I see many, many people here arguing pro gun and only one person who is anti-gun, copying and pasting the same reply to every post. That person is you, circletimessquare.
Amen! We should all be suffering! What is wrong with all these people with their fun games and entertainment, don't they know we're in a recession?
Now that I think about it, I've never died either. I wonder if I can use that to get a discount on my health insurance.
Yo dawg I herd u liek monitors so i put a monitor in yo monitor so you can display while you display!
I would assume it would turn out like what the Halo movie was supposed to be. The movie focuses on other characters, leaving the main character from the games (MC, or Freeman) as a cameo role.
I think it would end up like a couple of the Half-life expansion packs, where you play an ancillary character, catching brief glimpses of Gordon during the game.
It's a lot of fun to play with friends/coworkers in a game map based off of a real place you are familiar with. I regularly play on a couple maps I've made of my old high school and house in Counter-strike:source.
Some pics too in case anyone's interested.
