The paper you linked to was "flawed" because they couldn't get their numbers right, so they segregated out a group of people and even then they only got partial correlation between their hypothesis and the measured results, hence me being a bit sarcastic I think men and women are born with not only different physiology but also different psychologial makeups, hence what works for one doesn't always work for another. Try looking for studies of boys with behavioural problems that were raised the same way as girls. Both as infants and adults, the sexes have (as a result of evolution) different inbred traits, not at least how they express themselves. There is no excuse for not offereing equal opportunities though, i.e. same rights, same pay for same work etc. because that is indeed a construct made by society and shouldn't be in one (society) that consider itself "elightened". I think I made it my lifes goal to make a mockery of the selfish gene and try to identify everytime I think something that could in reality be the Homo Somethingveryoldus speaking through our racial memory.

Gorths summary: Left handed people are too stupid to be even considered for a job and if we had been given more tax payer money for bigger and better equipment, we could have produced useful results? What did left handed people do to offend you?

I had to see how you did it (since you didn't have a url to the fight itself). It just confirms that I truly hate dogs. I lose almost without exception to brutes with dogs. Having extremely low agility doesn't help I think he might just retire to make room for Gorthus Minimus As promised, Gorthus Minimus struck a blow against superior numbers

Its also cool to say Carth was an interesting, well written character. This. If there was one thing that I really enjoyed about KotOR2, it was not having Carth around to whine my ear off with sloppy, melodramatic, poorly-written dialogue. I think we've had enough Kotor/Mass Effect in this thread for now, thank you

Not such a hot idea, asking people to do illegal distribution of copyrighted files. That unfortunately applies, even if you have the disks. It sounds like your disks have been damaged. Try to check them for scratches and see if cleaning the disks helps. If not,depending on where you live, you might want to try Lucas Arts support. http://www.lucasarts.com/ Check under Support and Contact Support

It seems like the Aussie way of celebrating easter is to gorge themselves with something called "Hot Cross Buns" Renegotiated my employment contract this week. Got a nice pay raise. I should probably celebrate. Too tired to though

I hope the first one to reach level 10 creates an "Obsidian" clan

No, not just you. It might not be a complete deterrent though and it could lead to an escalation. I.e. pirates with bigger boats, bigger guns, pirates simply just starting to sink ships with improvised torpedoes (like the fire boats that the English used against the Spanish armada) and then ransom the survivors. You need to root it out at the source and destroy their base of operation on the coastline.

Waiter, can I have what he is having?

Inspired by that I went on a listening spree. A completely different genre though Medi

That's good IMO. The only issue is that the new things they tried follow the same 'CINEMATICK" / emo approach. That is just a low blow. They do sort of follow a pattern though. "Formulaic" if you want. Based on NWN and Kotor I would expect to show up at a council which declare me very special and the saviour of the universe, sending me off to the four courners of game world to gather clues, which leads me to the hidden place where an ancient evil awaits me for a show down. It can be fun if well done though. I did like Kotor

I hear Blackwater/Xe is looking for new work...

Waiting for Steven Seagal to show up... Except they aren't really "terrorists", just plain ordinary criminals that have made a living out of ransoming and extortion. In any other part of the world, they would probably have been part of the local organised crime syndicate, less visible, just as criminal. Question is, how to stop it?

Cute game. My gladiator, Gorthus Maximus has begun boot camp http://gorthus-maximus.mybrute.com/ One day, I shall supplant my master, Pidesco and I shall become master instead!

There are no mini-games in Dragon Age: Origins. There are puzzles though. (But no towers of hanoi) Sweet music Heh, Towers of Hanoi brings back memories of one of the less good parts of Kotor. One of the few mods I've ever used (in any game) was the one that removed the randomly occurring turret minigame.

Never underestimate the power of coffee... http://forums.obsidian.net/index.php?showtopic=419&hl= As for Bioware, they currently seem to appeal to a group of people that I don't belong to. Somebody heaping praise on me in a gushing voice doesn't make me feel special, it makes me cringe. Yes, I've been watching Mass Effect videos on Youtube. I am curious about Dragon Age and the current doctrine regarding mini games. I dislike them passionately, so if it doesn't have any (or very few/insignificant ones), it already scores a few points in my book without doing anything else.

That is one unhappy looking cat >_

I always wondered what the expression "Shooting yourself in the foot" was all about

Sheena Easton - "For your eyes only" Sort of double appropriate (James Bond theme + she has done voice acting previously in a game produced by Feargus and the gang)

If we had a few more ladies it wouldn't be. They love the uniform

Is 'Awesome' better than 'Tyte'? Edit: and is this in any way related to Project New Jersey?

It is perfectly possible to say that they have handled some things badly. I think what rubs some people the wrong way is the 'I have waited patiently, therefore they *owe* me!' attitude that some people (not you) seems to exhibit. On that note, I think it is time to let that subject rest, it has already been rehashed a couple of times over the years.

A quick reskin of some of the critters and we present... X-Com: Crucible!

I need to have words with the young people next door I don't get any stimulus packages... The world just isn't fair
