WW2 is no war to be looking for success in. This war is a worst possible outcome. Over 60 million people died which is a countable percentage of our world wide population at the time. Death on this level is unimaginable, painful, horrible, and a giant black mark on human history.

Let's not talk about a successful outcome of this war. Let's talk about how to prevent these wars.

WW2 arguably comes from more history of death, hate, and oppression. Humans have been doing this for thousands of years, and if your goal is to reduce human death & war, this has -not- been successful.

It takes worry, planning, and very personal care to achieve a $2 million net worth in the first place. After so much work and dedication, you do not want to see this money disappear and potentially hurt your charitable, retirement and family trust fund plans.

You should look up retirement costs. It's really expensive to live from age 60 to 90-100. You should start saving ASAP.

What's the line then? There are millions of conflicts around the world that we can 'get involved with'. Saudi Arabia likes to behead and crucify people, should we 'get involved' with them? What is the number of wars and death it takes to make everyone do exactly what we want them to do?

Did you know ISIS was born of intervention policies from the U.S. government? The reason why they are even around is because we are involved.

Strangely enough, when you kill someone family members, they hate you every single time. I guess you should stamp out that hate with more death and hate...

I'm most intrigued by this game's graphics. To me, this has a Crysis like element to it where this is next generation graphics.

It makes sense that they were able to generate this kind of detail in a game that doesn't have a supreme amount of content. But because of this, it interests me. I can't name another game that looks quite like this.

I haven't purchased a $60 dollar game in a long time so I'll likely pass on it. However, I do want to get my hands on a demo at some point.

Comment Re:Does indeed happen. (Score 1) 634

Actually, yes. I was applying for a senior Windows position and had the Linux manager who was cross interviewing ask the hiring manager if he could 'steal' me for his group.

4 hour interview process on site that went really great all the way through, but a little weirdly with the hiring manager.

Still didn't get the job, actually staying on topic a bit, because of age discrimination I presume. I was around 22 at the time...

It's much easier...

You to trusted friend: "Hey want to buy a lottery ticket? I'll go in half but can't pick it up today if you don't mind paying for it." Use these numbers, it's my lucky numbers.

Done. I have friends that I'm 98% sure they would give me half and not let me worry about being in the public spot light.

This article is valid and delivers more data to the subject.

It's always a great thing to remind individuals of language within these site's terms of service. Due to the fact that I don't have time to find to comb through terms of service, this particular language was new to me. In general, most of us know that data on the internet isn't safe is a good assumption.

I give a thumbs up to the author.

Submission + - SCO Receives Nasdaq Notice Letter (cnn.com)

An anonymous reader writes: This somewhat amusing press release of sorts tells us one of those things we've all been waiting a while for. SCO(X) has announced that: that it received a Nasdaq Staff Determination letter on December 21, 2007 indicating that as a result of having filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel has determined to delist the company's securities from the Nasdaq Stock Market and will suspend trading of the securities effective at the open of business on Thursday, December 27, 2007. PJ at Groklaw has surmised that with effectively zero cash resources left, Novell doesn't stand to get much more than SCO's furniture, if even that. Ding dong, is the wicked witch finally dead yet?
