or at least that Neo-imperialism is bad..

Maybe you would like to point out where I have gone wrong instead of making pointless blanket statements. I was merely being an ass, problem with these kinds of discussion is that people get very black/white in their views. You were looking at Capitalism from a very strict theoritical angle and sticking to that (just to make it clear though, I was doing the same). Which is unfruitfull in the long run, Sand was doing the same with Socialism (well his warped angle at least) and as such it merely became a discussion wether black was better than white - when the two are opposite sides of a spectre. Reality is rather gray in this matter, I just wanted the discussion to take that into account. Besides it rather hard to compare unless you look at the similarities and span out from there. The western world is a mix of the two ideologies, argueably Capitalism is dominant, but that still doesn't mean that we are pure Capitalistic societies.

They should've made cranberry juice run through his vein, so they could drink his blood as well.. that would've completed the sculpture and symbology. It would be so much sweeter to remember Jesus this way.

I experience the same thing, it has something to do with the particular codec, when explorer tries to show the first frame. But I've never been able to find out exactly why it crashes. If I change the codec the error stops.

^ Well, people just like taking about stuff they have no knowledge of. Which is why I'm gonna add my 2 cents - fight the fire with fire I say! Neither of you (Sand or Roshan) seems to have any grasp of what you are actually talking about - or maybe you just choose to be narrowminded to force an argument through? Both Socialism and Capitalism have the same goal - to make life better for as many people as possible. They just disagree (to a point) on where to start and how to proceed from there. Socialism regards property as a common right, while Capitalism views it as a private right. S argues that humans need to agree and come together to make decisions to further the common good, while traditional Capitalism (like Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations) sought to end mercantalism and trade restrictions by removing the responsiblity from the state (to a degree the people) and put it in the hands of private merchants, which would make sure prices were fair and equal due to natural competition. And this is of course where the trouble starts. and now I'm tired.. which just proves that I'm quite useless to this debate.. heh..

I'll try kalimeeri's option and if it, for some reason, shouldn't work - I can always delete them directly from the registry.. update: Worked like a charm!! thanks for the feedback..

I tried that, but I couldn't find it all apparently. I'm running XP Pro. What do I do exactly?

recently one of my harddiscs decided to suddenly change from E: to F: and my DVD drive vice versa. This was somewhat annoying, but not something I thought hard about untill suddenly I realised that all my games stopped working. I can't even uninstall them, since the program can't locate them. I can delete them, but then I can't reinstall them, since Windows still have them in it's regristry. I've since installed some new games, which I don't want to uninstall - so I don't want to change the harddic's location - just remove the old entries. How do I uninstall these games? is there a program that can delete in from the regristry? - Rosbjerg

so you are trying to say that realization and exsistence is the same - since exsistence is?

You are looking at the immidiate effects right now, sure at this point they've accomplished nothing, they are back to sqaure one .. but the fact that we are having this discussion means that they've made an impact into the world scene for more than a nuclear program. I think they did this as a PR mission, not to show how merficul or strong they are. But to show that they are defiant and that they were able to capture Coalition soldiers (on their own turf) without any serious reprecussions. This also sends an image out into the world that US and it's allied are too busy (maybe to weak?) to enforce the laws in their captured regions - this, plus the fact that we haven't caputred Osama Bin Laden and along with all those other small problems, illustrates that the West is not as strong as they appear. This maybe be untrue, but that's what the rest of the world sees. Iran was throwing a dry twig on a small fire - and if it continues I'll gurantuee you that that fire will grow out of proportion sometime soon! It only takes one to listen before you are heard.

Sorry if it seemed like I was praising him, I most surely wasn't .. I was merely looking at it from a political perspective and from that point of view Iran steered through this conflict quite ingeniously. But it was a cheap trick nonetheless.

Woke up about an hour ago (it's 7:30 PM here) after a long night .. me and 5 others went to Boomtown (a gaming internetcafe) for a 10 hours "session". From midnight until 10 in the morning. So I'm a bit out of sorts today..

This was never aimed at us to begn with.. The soldiers were a means to an end - Irans is trying to assert her power over the Eastern world and to all the would-be powers who's against the western (US) hegemony.

Now they are released.. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad also held a powerspeech were he tried to seems merciful and strong at the same time, while still succeeding at stabbing at western culture, by adressing the fact that the the British had put "a mother away from her children" in charge of the mission, which suddenly meant that western cultures are in decline, since we don't respect family values. So Iran won this little conflict imo, by using this holiday (the prophet Muhammeds birthday and Jesus' ressurection) as an excuse for mercy. Nicely played, and it shows us that the middleeast are just as shrewd in their political cunning as even the most skillfull politician in our world.

hmm thanks Withteeth, I've been slacking on my madz computer skilz .. good to know that there is a place where I can get some sound advice!

hey TheSlug, that actually a pretty cool picture.. where did you find it?

I'm thinking about this build P4 650 3,4 Ghz with a NorthQ 3312 Giant UFO cooler AsRock 775Dual-Vsta Motherboard Kingston ValueRAM 1gb DDR II and a 250 GB HDD and then I'm looking for a reasonable graphics card, but I don't know if I should go for an AGP or a PCI-E card.. what the difference? (aside from their location) this build costs 500$ so far.. and I'm looking for a card at around the 100-200$ price range. Any good ideas?

that little innergeek I have actually thought it was pretty well made..

or a Viking Broadsword.. about the same lenght.. The exact content of the file: - The Fountain 2006 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0414993/ An Inconvenient Truth 2006 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0497116/ - Random fact: BitLord contains adware. I know .. I sweep my computer daily.. but I'm too bored to find a better solutions - and ipsofacto it also says that the spyware comes from Torrenreactor, which I never use.. (so that diminshes the risk a little)

It looks like your walking into a room lusting at your victim your about to kill with that viking sword. Yarr! Well, you're right on the first couple of accounts, but it's a Kukri instead of a Viking sword (which I would never be able to carry).

Well since this happened Friday it's kinda cheating.. but it was a fun experiance.. I went to a disco here in Copenhagen, without any high expectations - Me and 10 of my co-workers were on the VIP guestlist because one of them knew the owner, but I didn't think much of it - I was about to get a suprise.. but anyway, we stood in line and was suddenly pulled out an escorted to a different entrance on the side, where a personal waitress escorted us through a Foy

and there you have it..

We can't go to way per say like America (through an election in Congress), no, but it's more than a economical agreement and closer to a federation of Nations. EU could appeal for it's members to participate, but never demand that they do. How the political members are elected varies and I must admit I don't know how other countries do it. Here in Denmark it's both politicians and the people that elect representatives through local and national elections, though most of the time political parties nominates a candidate, which is then elected (or rejected) by our "senate".

"People know the price of everything but the value of nothing." I think its from that book, you are right it was an interesting read but way to homo erotic for my tastes. I mean seriously it was like subtle but still homosexual propaganda and such. Our teacher showed us the ending of the movie, pretty funny how horrible it was but the book was nice. It's full of those kind of kinda quotes.. Oscar Wilde was very modern for his time - which was his demise. Very homo erotic indeed, it's unfortunate that the first version was edited, the most common publication is a heavy modification and the homosexuality is very downtoned. I don't mind, he was gay and as such (especially in context of the time he lived in) it's very natural that he would want to potray it this way.

300 .. I never thought I would say this, but the serious parts of the movie (were people weren't being killed in various ways) were actually quite lacking compared to the action. The movie suffered from trying to be more than it was. A good film nonetheless and one I will fully recommend.
