crazy article:
http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/asiapcf/09/27/afghanistan.sport.murders/index.html?hpt=T2
tl;dr – U.S. soldiers tried for murdering of innocent afgahni civilians. One soldier testifies on tape; describes throwing gernades at civilians and shooting them, also kept fingers as trophies.
It has nothing to do with freeing a terrorist. The ACLU, American Civil Liberties Union, filed a lawsuit on behave of the american born terrorist Anwar al-Awlaki to prevent the U.S. from assassinating him. Their argument is that if the U.S. is allowed to assassinate Anwar, a citizen, what’s stopping them from assassinating other citizens (like yourself) for another reason. It’s totally bogus, but then again the ACLU is pretty bogus.
it changes different colors based on the colors in the room. The “eye” detects that ball thing, and the control uses the appropriate color allowing the eye to see it the easiest.
Barack Obama orders killing of US cleric Anwar al-Awlaki
again there is a difference between having someone captured and defenseless and someone who is still a threat. Geneva Convention or not.

Quote:
The three, all members of the Navy’s elite commando unit, have refused non-judicial punishment — called a captain’s mast — and have requested a trial by court-martial.they requested the court-martial, not obama. If you are going to blame obama, you might as well blame everyone else down the chain of command who allowed this to happen; Seal leaders, commanders, everyone. Also their charges include, failing to safegaurd a detainee and making false statements. As in, beating up a defenseless person (terrorist or not) and then lying about it. It’s a shame their boss didn’t just look the other way; but that means we should blame obama? K…
If you read the rest of that article, by fox news a trusted news source (lol); you will also notice that in 2004 a similar event happened:
Quote:
The military is sensitive to charges of detainee abuse highlighted in the Abu Ghraib prison scandal. The Navy charged four SEALs with abuse in 2004 in connection with detainee treatment.So Bush is a terrorist lover now too eh?
that’s not true. There is a difference between torturing someone and just taking his *edited* out with a well placed sniper shot. Obama would have no problem ordering assassinations on any of those gitmo terrorists, if they were a threat to us; like Anwar. Isn’t that why he’s getting sued in the first place?

I remember when I was up there near Asheville around october, stopping into a mall on the way to the airport. I forgot the name, but it’s probably about 10 miles from it, anyway there was an arcade in there right across from the Gamestop. It seemed to have a decent amount of traffic going in and out. The manager seemed kind of nice, has anyone tried talking to him?
waffle these shirts are awesome. I don’t have much say because I’m all the way in Texas, and never actually went to WCU, but I will say from a designer stand point, that the one design in your signature on a shirt is awesome. I think it was the first one you posted. WCU with the control angled going horizontal from purple to gold. That looks sick.
the first two you uploaded look the best imo.
Good job!!!

First professional game for dicey and its was kinda meh. Good seats though and free to boot, less getting raped for $35 parking.
I’ve never been to an NFL game / don’t know that stadium. Do the tickets normally cost that much or did you just have a really good seat?
yeah they cost that much and more. Dice got a good deal for those seats. Some places it would cost anywhere from 100-300 dollars for decent lower level seating (depending on the game, opponent, etc)
the average at reliant stadium here in Houston is something like 75 dollars, including all the nosebleed sections.

As I sit here drinking an excessive amount of booze, watching a fishing pole and hoping some mysterious beast of a marine creature strike my bait, I can’t help but wonder how we should treat extra terrestrials that we might encounter in some unkown future. My political view on aliens, call it racist, are “if it looks like a roach and has a taste for humanoid flesh, exterminate by any means neccessary. At the same time I’m troubled by the thought of a galactic red dawn from blossoming to reality. What if they win I wonder, or what if we find out they’re cursed humans kidnapped and bread into heathens. What if they’re smokinh hot aliens; succubi if you will? I ponder these things, blame it on the copious amounts of whiskey I say.

Get this *edited*ing *edited* out of this thread.
No one *edited*ing cares bout taxes or what some talking head said in washington.
We only care about football. (for now at least)
sorry there buddy
i was hoping i could slip it passed you, didn’t feel like starting a new thread with that taint of a quote, so i figured this one could absorb it’s stench.
Back to football

Pompous much?
Not really.
Only an idiot would raise taxes on half the overall income from small businesses during a recession.
Btw, what happened to all those “shovel ready jobs” that would begin work almost immediately? I mean yeah I saw a “Paid for with stimulus money” sign on I-85 the other day but it’s about 30 miles from the nearest construction zone
well i was leaning more towards his comments on who got hit the hardest. It must have been so devestating for those rich *edited*s to lose all that money. Some in fact made money, millions of moneys. Compare that to millions losing their jobs and homes, and still have the audacity to claim the rich got it the hardest? Sorry i don’t buy it.
“We can’t let the people who’ve been hit hardest by this recession and who we need to create the jobs that will get us out of it foot the bill for the Democrats’ two-year adventure in expanded government,” McConnell said on the Senate floor.
Pompous much?
Texans over Colts. Every single one of my kids at school thought it couldn’t be done. If Arian Foster and our gorilla squad of a defense can keep this up, and stay healthy, I bet we not only make the playoffs but actually win a game or two.

Also something to add, diesel in general provides better torque than even gasoline
a good article on this subject:

Don’t think that going the speed limit is my bag but don’t think I’m going to pay out the *edited* to be able to go over it more. I’m content with my intrepid, although I’d be more content if my cruise control worked
1-6 over is gold
6-10 is ok
11-15 is risky
15+ is stupid
Btw, while we’re on cars, any takers on how long it’ll take America to realize that diesel engines outperform hybrids, get better gas mileage than hybrids, are cheaper than hybrids, and have a much higher crash-survival rate than hybrids? Oh and by the way, the fuel is cheaper (usually) and easier to produce and if green if your thing you can buy or make your own biodiesel.
I mean gasoline is probably the most retarded invention ever, designed solely as a permanent cash cow. All other types of fuel can be made in your back yard.
I completely agree and I own one of those stupid hybrids lol. Last time I was in France, my cousin drove us around in minivan made by ford. It ran on diesel and this thing got 65 km to the liter easy going up a freaking mountain. <——WHY CAN’T WE HAVE THIS HERE?!
Alas, I just ran out of my warranty, and surprise surprise I had to replace a part. 499 dollars went bye bye cause of a coolant pump. My foot would probably be deeper down my throat if I bought the car brand new, but as it turns out, I got a bad *edited* deal on my Mercury Mariner Hybrid. It was in the family already and i got it refinanced at $18,500 left on the pay stub. 30 mpg on the hwy (26 in city) is pretty good for a SUV (granted it’ll taking me 12-15 years to see any kind of savings, but it’s convenient to not have to fill up every day).
A vehicle that uses biodiesel is definitely next on my list tho. Hopefully they come out with a DeLorean DMC-12 that really does run on garbage. that would be sweet.
don’t deny the hippiness in what you said. It’s tough to swallow I know, but we aren’t so different you and I.

Nope, it’s run by a completely different set of people who only care about profits. They’re owned by an investment management company in Singapore.
Seriously, CPL and CAL will never be run by people who care about quality of gameplay because they’re both corporate entities. No matter how you look at it, at the end of the day there’s a bottom line on a financial report somewhere and if the ink isn’t black it can’t bode well for gamers.
so wait. youre telling me that a corporation only cares about money, and that they could care less about the quality of the product that they are offering, so long as it makes them money?
MasterP you are sounding like a big ole L-I-B-E-R-A-LOL

They are also accepting applications to test the game.
