Yes I am well aware of that .... I read it as an outside of the local area LGBT group came in trying to stir something up, the local gay population told them they didn't want any part of it, the outside group left. You right that could be what he meant, I just don't believe it The LGBT community faces enough discrimination on a daily faces from people who push a homophobic agenda I find it hard to believe they would discriminate against themselves like that especially in a place like Poland which is relatively conservative about gay rights anyway. I would think the LGBT community would stick together but you never know How do you reconcile these two conflicting thoughts in your head? You say you're aware of and acknowledge that not all gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender people agree with all that the various 'LGBT movement' groups say or do in their name. Yet you also find it hard to believe said people who don't agree with such groups would tell such groups to F off rather than let them speak for them in a manner they disagree with. It stands to simple and basic reason that one would follow the other. ie: A Jew who disagrees with Netanyahu is likely to get more upset with him than a non-Jew when Netanyahu has the audacity to start speaking for all Jews. Pretending he has all of their voices behind his as well. ie: I don't like Obama. But I'd get down right pissed off at him if he showed up in my town and had the audacity to start speaking on my behalf on something that I don't agree with him on. Pretending that he has my voice behind his as well. Similar examples would be Feminist X speaking for all women, or the ones I gave earlier of the AARP speaking for all retired people, or NAACP and the Rainbow Coalition speaking for all black people. And as an aside, all of the examples of audacious folks are also examples of dishonest and disingenuous folks.

Okay that video was really good and it made me hungry I see that cook says you mustn't prick the skin, I always do because then the steam can escape and there is less chance of the sausage splitting ? Yea... don't prick the skin. That's an amateur move. Cooking sausages well takes some practice. You've got to get the right temperature. Note how the cook says the temp is low. Slow cooking sausages is the way to go (slow cooking is the way to go for a lot of things). You won't split them if you cook them right, and they will be much juicier and tastier.

Apparently the had more than one press conference on the issue. The one I watched didn't have any morons shouting.

This entire thread is about sausages in one way or another. People's favorite types of sausages, People's favorite way to prepare sausages. People who have sausages but think they don't. People who have sausages but wish they didn't. People who don't have sausages but wish they did. People who don't think your opinion matters if you have a sausage but don't want more. And so on.

There is no LGBT community in my area. Gay people kicked them out when they wanted to start some protests or whatever. I'm talking in general. Just look at the OP. Bashing me for having an opinion. Well not personally, but if "white heterosexual males shouldn't speak" or "kill all men" shouldn't offend me personally then neither should my rants about LGBT in general or the limerick in PoE as those are not aimed at specific person. As for the vicious circle, I'm not a big fan of turning the other cheek. In fact most people aren't. What LGBT is building up is a mass hate that will eventually turn bloody. And innocent homosexuals etc. that are not part of and don't want to be a part of LGBT movements will get killed. That's how people are. What do you mean Gay people kicked them out ? The word LGBT stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender How can Gay people kick themselves out of your area? Believe it or not Bruce, not all gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender people agree with all that the various 'LGBT movement' groups say or do in their name. In fact, most gay people I personally know disagree with a great deal of what they say and do, some quite vehemently. It's not unlike the fact that a great deal of black people don't agree with what the Rainbow Coalition or NAACP says or does in their name. Or the fact that a lot of older people don't agree with what the AARP says and does in their name.

No one is forcing anyone. Re-read the article. True, but tone of the reasons that DirectTV probably pulled the campaign was because of the fact that the complaint was built up from their competitor. http://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/closed-settlements/41542-vitaminwater-deceptive-marketing-class-action-settlement/ That took 3 years before a settlement was reached and wasn't even touched by the better business bureau or anyone like that. In one case you have a company arguably slandering another company with false info, and in another just a case of arguable false advertising that only hurts the gullible and uninformed consumer, maybe. Proving you are damaged in some manner is monumentally easier in the former example than it is in the latter. A single entity (company or person) is just about always going to have an easier time in a legal battle than any class action body, for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is ability to organize a legal suit. Anyone who actually suffers some kind of damage from libel is just about always going to have a far easier time getting their case to move forward than someone whose damages don't amount to much more than they were duped out of a few bucks.

Most of the good places aren't kosher but they are usually using a certain combination of lamb and calf/cow and local Arab spices. Israel is probably one of the best places to eat meat all around the world because it is a melting pot of many cultures ,so you can find things like a kebab made out of a very famous French specie of cows called Limousin that have eaten a special kind of grass that can be found only in Israel ,you can add that to a Lebanese humus and Turkish falafel and you get a multicultural meal that you won't get anywhere else. An American cousin of mine was traveling all around the US and tried many of the great restaurants there and after a week with me here he said he never ate anything like the food in Israel.(Of course you need to know where the good places are) The U.S. is one hell of a bigger melting pot of cultures than Israel is. There's good food in every nation. It's always a matter of knowing where the good places are. Kosher food is generally of better quality than what one will find in most of the rest of the west because it's generally held to higher quality standards than the industrial food supply companies have (the companies that supply most restaurants and grocery stores in the west). The same is true of Amish food.

And if she beat the crap out of you or perhaps even killed you rather than run away, a great many people would think she was within her rights to do so. All she'd have to say is 'self defense'.

Link? I saw the press conference and no one was screaming at anyone. For a change, the mayor and police chief should be commended. Far too often, when stuff like this happens the mayor and police chief try and justify murder, if not help cover up the incident. There were several disruptions when people shouted at the Police Chief, he even said at one time he was going to end the interview but he continued Link or it didn't happen.

IE games just gave you a set amount of XP for whatever and it was divided amongst your party, however many you had in it. There was no bonus programmed into the game, like there is with PoE. In general, XP is all sorts of messed up in PoE.

That as well, I suppose, the video gives very little wriggle room as loosing eight shots at a guy who's running away unarmed is pretty damn hard to justify. The cop will get off with a light sentence, I am guessing, though. A relatively light sentence if he's convicted is likely. 1st hurdle: A DA that will actually prosecute cops of crimes. (most cases die here) 2nd hurdle: A jury that will convict. (juries have been known to let cops get away with the most heinous of crimes even when there's overwhelming evidence. ie: Kelly Thomas, Rodney King) 3rd hurdle: A fair judge. (This actually is probably the smallest hurdle.) Of course It's possible the cop will agree to a plea bargain, and it never goes to trial.

Thank goodness for a DA that isn't corrupt to the point they won't ever prosecute cops for murder, no matter how much evidence there is.

Where's the 'none of the above' option?

Set it to 0m and am happy. Someone trying to make a funny decided to resurrect it. Then the naysayers that don't bother to read the thread or fail to understand the issue that exist(s/ed) in pretty much every thread on this forum jumped into say nay. Even though the issue is settled and done. This was one of two threads that got the option to turn it off in the game.

If that's true, the individual behind the accounts is a very mentally disturbed person. Also likely a paid troll. The mods likely can confirm or deny with an IP comparison check. It's doubtful the individual is smart enough to use a proxy. Good website metrics software also could confirm/deny, though I wouldn't necessarily expect mods to have access to that info, if Obsidian is even keeping track.

Ha. Load times are fine. Much of the time I don't get to finish reading whatever tip is being displayed on the loading screen before the load completes. Anyone with long loading times: It's time to upgrade your computer. Mine's 3 years old and the load times are fast.

Yes please.

That's not new. It's been that way for a long while now. Google has mucked up youtube with all sorts of ****. You ad-blocker perhaps is just noticing it for the first time, or you've upped your protection settings. Google has it's nasty fingers in near everything on the net.

Yes, consideration based on one side's interests, sorry, human rights. Libya is fine ? A bunch of rebels get up and have the USAF and others act as their lackeys for what end ? The West doesn't seem to look down the road well at the results from their bombings (then again, assuming they want stable peaceful democratic nations) based on that and other misadventures. Am not too sure they get to wash their hands out of what comes out of a situation they helped create, after all. So what would you prefer? Either the West should not have intervened at all in Libya and when Gaddafi had won and there were tens of thousands of dead Libyans who opposed Gaddafi, there would have been that number of dead as he controlled the Libyan army, then its too late to be concerned about the humanitarian aspect and that would have been on the conscience of the world..also we would have heard the end of criticism ..." The West did nothing while tens of thousands were massacred in Misrata" Or do you prefer that the West is now responsible for being directly involved in the running of Libya once Gaddafi was defeated ? Or do you support intervention but once the ruler is removed the destiny and running of country is left to its own citizens? Because in the case of Libya there were only those three choices There were not tens of thousands of dead Libyans who opposed Gaddafi. You're just making **** up. The official propagandists who inflate numbers whenever they can don't even try and say that. The uprising against Gaddafi was actually quite small and limited to a couple areas of the nation for the most part. NATO decided to protect those areas, arm the protesters, and ultimately militarily involve themselves to make sure Gaddafi was overthrown. The result: thousands of dead that would not have been dead had NATO not gotten involved, and a nation in ruins.

Greece can suck an egg in regards to attempting to extort money from Germany. Greece would be exceptionally unwise to take money from Russia to pay the IMF. Greece would be wise to just default on the IMF. A lot of nations would be wise to do so.

It's a sacrifice to the potion God of course.

The problem isn't that there's too much XP from X, the problem is that it takes too little XP to level. And at this point it would be much easier for Obsidian to change the latter than the former.
