haha, I wasn't actually being serious! Do me! Do me! 2009 335xi w/ Dinan stage 3 ECU, oil cooler, intercooler, and exhaust.

What would be the benefit of antagonizing NK, Russia, China, and possibly others? What upside is there? What is gained by attempting to shoot it down? That is crossing a line that no country in history has crossed, in shooting down another country's satellite launch. What kind of precedent does...

Haven't had a chance to play around with my Nexus 10 yet. Installed a couple apps, browsed the nets a bit, and that's it really. I don't think I'm going to get a lot of use out of it, outside of traveling. I know on the previous two boards there were posts/threads that listed "must have" Android...

Why? That would only antagonize the North, and I doubt China and Russia would be too thrilled with the US doing real-world tests of ABM systems. Everyone would know they did as well, it's not something you can hide, because ABM systems currently are projectiles and not lasers. Basically you...

Big fan of Smith and Spy personally, for sunglasses, goggles and the like.

Yeah, it will be. At least for me. No fucking way am I going near 8. We'll be migrating from XP to 7 sometime in the new year, but that's it.

I dunno, when the NHL tried to do it unilaterally last year the NHLPA objected and scuttled the whole thing. Whether or not it's something to be negotiated within the CBA itself, it's something the NHLPA has a say in. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sport...rticle4085699/

What exactly constitutes an "offense" in that chart? If handguns were banned in 1997, it stands to reason that you'd immediately see a large uptick in "offenses" as people are caught with no illegal handguns. And that's exactly what you see there. Am I missing something? If that graph were...

It's never come up at all. Hell I'd kind of forgotten about it. I'm not really sure what the story is there. I'd imagine we haven't heard much about it, because it's a very sensitive topic. Realignment goes hand in hand with expanding to 32 teams, and I'd imagine the league wants to keep that on...

Maybe Ham is a hipster IRL, but Gavinrad is certainly the board's internet hipster.

Actually, I kind of agree with Trexx, despite her being a gigantic, vapid cunt of a human being. People have jumped to a lot of ridiculous conclusions about the bots that were members at FOH. Every message board on the internet has that problem, I'd imagine it has zero to do with Tyen or...

They can do whatever they want, provided the previous dates were still available at the arenas and hadn't been re-booked with other concerts/events, which is unlikely given the short time frame. Regardless, even if they hadn't cancelled the schedule up to that point, the old schedule went out...

If they get a deal done by the end of the week, I would imagine they'd try to get some games in prior to Jan 1. Basically the season would start about 10 days after a deal is done. 3 days to recall players, 1 week camp, and then off to the races. As I've said all along on the other board, I...

It would have only been when he was on a public road briefly to cross from one field to another. Vehicular laws regarding registration, insurance, licensing and everything else only apply to vehicles on public roads. Not private land. I learned to drive stick working summers for my dad. We...

How exactly has society turned pretty hostile lately against blue collar workers?

Yeah, so long as the armed forces remain loyal, you aren't going to see any revolution there. Isn't something like 10-20% of the population in the army?

You park like an asshole. Is that a cripple space too? Just guessing with the blue square there.

Yeah, absolutely. I was just saying that once you're down to Vanguard-type MER's worrying about a couple hundredths of a percent difference is likely focusing on the wrong things. Transaction costs, proper allocation, rebalancing, taxes and the like are all going to have a far larger impact on...

No, it's not true that all US income tax goes to paying interest on the debt. I'm not sure what the US debt servicing costs are right now, but I'm going to guess around 10-20% of US government revenue. When Canada's debt peaked in the early 90's, we were paying almost 30% of government revenue...

I wouldn't say they're mutually exclusive. But it's certainly hypocritical, especially if they're a "preachy" kind of environmentalist.

Fair enough, I figured someone might bring that up. Replace Japan's murder rate with any other developed country then. Even Canada, which actually has a similar rate of gun ownership and number of guns (proportionately) to the US has a murder rate two and a half times less. The big difference...

I don't know what the rules are anymore

http://www.investopedia.com/terms/e/...#axzz2Eo9MaS5S Basically it's how much the fund costs to run. With mutual funds and ETF's you don't pay that out of pocket or anything, it just comes out of the fund's returns. So for example, if say the S&P 500 went up by 10% one year, and you owned a...

My bud had the same experience. He inquired about it when he was having some issues with his balls from riding his bike and seeing a specialist, and was told that the doctor wouldn't consider doing a vasectomy on him due to his age and marital status (single). It's not 100% guaranteed to be...

It's ridiculous to use such incidents as some sort of equivalent counterpoint to US gun violence. The reality is that the US murder rate is pretty much double to quadruple what it is in most other developed countries, and gun violence is generally an order of magnitude higher. Yes, if someone...

heh, no idea how "fat" you are, so you might not fit my definition. I don't give a shit about people who have a few extra pounds. Hell, I'm 10-20lbs overweight myself. But people who are outright obese to the point that it has negative lifestyle consequences like poor health, joint pain...

Sounds like the first couple stages worked, anyways.

On the one hand, I kind of feel bad because Camerous honestly strikes me as a genuinely well meaning guy, with some serious developmental issues. He's not quite all there mentally. On the other hand, he's fat, and fat people disgust me.

It's all going to be dictated by the graphics card, really. Most SFF boxes can't accommodate a decent GPU due to size and power restrictions.

Chick I'm with now is quiet as fuck during sex, and were I not paying attention to her facial expressions, I'd probably have no idea when she has an orgasm. She's all discreet about it.

Entry-level deals are a max of 3 years. As he is playing pro in the AHL and not eligible to play junior, a year ticks off his contract no matter what. And I agree that the lockout in many ways hurts the Oilers amongst the least of any team for a variety of reasons, from shitty contracts...

Nevermind!

-Where do you work? Family mechanical construction company that my bro and I own (along with a third minority partner). Grampa started it in the 50's, dad and uncle took over in the late 70's, and starting in the 00's we took over from my dad who retired completely December 2009. About 8...

Can you handle a receiver sized case? If so, you can basically build a full fledged PC inside an HTPC case, full size ATX motherboard and all. This is the one I use, or very similar anyways as mine is approaching 7 years old now:http://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=85&area= Basically...

The NHL's last proposal had an exception for teams re-signing their own players that allowed up to 7 year contracts. Otherwise, if you were signing someone to a contract that wasn't previously your property, it was 5 years. That seems entirely reasonable to me.

heh, seriously though, what kind of "life" does that shit have? Is all of that stuff archived somewhere by Google or whoever else? Or does it just up and disappear from the internet over the next couple weeks/months as caches are emptied?

Pretty disgusted by Hartnell's comments here:http://www.edmontonsun.com/2012/12/1...-roman-hamrlik If that's the kind of attitude Hartnell has about his own teammates, then I certainly wouldn't want to count him as one. Harmlik didn't even say anything all that controversial, just that he...

Last week at Fernie. Yes, it's semen.

Again, that's to cut back on cap circumvention. The system had a gaping loophole in it, one that I still can't believe wasn't thought of when the CBA was negotiated. Look at Shea Weber's contract: http://capgeek.com/player/1042 The likelihood of Weber playing out the last 3 years of that...

None of what you posted takes in to account that a child born in a developed country is likely to consume an order of magnitude more resources in their lifetime than one born in a poor or developing country, nor that there's about a 99.9999% chance that said child will never have any measurable...
