Win one for the gipper. "Bush reminds me more of a Ferengi than a Klingon." The only thing more annoying than those ear-idiots is Nelix, whatever he is, space cat/retard.

Talk to your family and the people who knew her. It helps to feel usefull when you don't really feel comfortable anywhere. Anyway thats how it was when I lost my father.

I don't think there are that many of those editors that were actially designed with the intent of being easy to begin with.

It makes you look foolish when you close a topic because of one poster you have been going tit for tat with yourself.

"Does it? I don't think so, just look around. Maybe one day humankind will be advanced enough that laws can be passed to effectively govern war (I'm not even going to get into the moral implications of that), but then again, the same can be said for say, gravity itself." I'm not talking about some grand design, just a court of public opinion that keep the powers that are responsible to the people in check. It worked during Bush sr.

I got 1200 points

It already is funny if it wasen't so absurd, but it's better than nothing. It does keep some small check on would be conquerers.

As bad as Bush is I believe the rule is you can't compare him to Hitler. ;D

When did abstracts like good and evil come into the discussion ?, but since we are in that territory ; It's not a bad thing at all to make an effort to limit wars by signing such agreements since people periodically seem to forget the destuction and the sacrifices war brings with it.

Non sequitur. Who said I was talking about morality, or that I disagree that the UN has no authority or enforcement other than what the strong members can impose upon others and themselves. The US and the UK signed, into law, that they would not go invade without UN aproval. The rest is excuses. In the case of Iraq, a pathetic one.

Wave of the advertising future, 'recommendations' on message boards and chatrooms. Or maybe he just gets some kind of spendable brownie points for signups.

Schedule a scan of the disk next time you restart, There aren't any easy cures to a failed installation, but it probably won't affect anything but the game.

I hate these test, I usually do fine with the shapes and associations and whatnot, but my math skills are always too lacking to figure out the 'two men dig a well' questions.

How about a bull**** story about WMDs ;P The US tried to make it a 'legal war' by attemping to discredit Hans Blix, and then presenting their case to the council and calling for a resolution. When that failed they demonstrated their utter contempt for the process by invading anyway. National interests always trumph these ceremonial international treaties, legality would have been nice for the US to have had, but it was hardly required.

"How can you have an "illegal war"?" The US and UK both are signitaries to the UN treaty, they weren't strictly allowed to invade other countries without the sayso of the security council. That makes it an 'illegal war', which Khoffi Anan agreed it was. Now of course the adherence to the UN treaty falls to the individual countries, and there aren't any means to make them comply.

You can't really win against an enemy who's only prerequisite for continuing the effort is the will to do so, while your efforts are being undermined on the home front. Bush and Blair both made a point to state from the beginning that they were in it for the long run, whether it was popular or not, but the circumstances are changing; the rising resistance to the deployment can't be ignored forever,even evoking the war on terror is failing to produce the desired results. Bush may or may not be correct in assuming he can produce'victory',whatever that is, but history tells us that the pressures on and the sacrifices of the American population are likely to be a greater deciding factor than overwhelming military superiority. As much as the right wing initially hated the Vietnam analogies, they just wouldn't go away, and how could they, being so deeply ingrained in the American psyche.

It would probably be copyright infringement to band together here and share the cost of the smallest batch available, mores the pity.

I think i'll go for the lazer death ray eyeballs.

It was a pretext, same as WMD, they did it because they wanted to.

Once Osama seemed quite unatainable the US sensibly went out and created some more terrorism to fight, since the desire for military intervention was not quite spent with Afghanistan. Now they are out there protecting America from another 9/11 by dealing with the hornet's nest they stirred up.... In Iraq.

You never read more than half of the dialouge boxes for quests because they are all so mind numbing. I don't think the engine can really handle an involved story unless they started doing cinematics instead.

mmm. the deadric realms were pretty disapointing in Oblivion.

:S

". Not too sure where it comes from, though >_>" It's Mike Mignola, probably a Nazi scientist about to summon Hellboy for the first time.
