Extrajudicial Killing
But it does entitle him to whatever rights that American citizens have in this case, such as the right to a trial.

Extrajudicial Killing
This. The big issue seems to be that he's an American citizen. I don't know enough to say more. It might be helpful to post background instead of opinion pieces, since I'm assuming that the few of us that don't follow this issue won't know enough to comment.

Does this mean that plastic is one molecule away from cheez whiz? We can solve world hunger with the pacific garbage patch@@ Funny how much of a difference something so small makes. Like how we share ~99%+ of our DNA with chimpanzees.

Tip.It Times - 25th September 2011
The three main monotheistic religions worship the same god and have many of the same beliefs. Since they're also more or less the primary religions of the western world (Read: Where most 'Scapers are), it's likely that most of them would at least have a basic understanding of the references that he uses, since they show up in many other aspects of popular culture. If Wikipedia is to be believed, the four largest religions are either Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism, or Christianity, Islam, nonreligious, and Hinduism, totalling 5-6 billion adherents (read: most of the world). The absence of Buddhism in the second list might be because of different definitions used in whatever survey they use, since Buddhism can be atheistic. Of those, the Abrahamic religions, and especially Christianity, are the primary religions of North America and Europe. I'm assuming Tip.It's users come mostly from those two continents, so it's not a stretch to say that if Croce references Christianity, most of his readers will get the reference. The same can't be said if he decided to reference Zoroastrianism. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_religious_populations Seems kind of like Blyaunte just wants an excuse to complain, facts be damned.

At least we're debating something important and relevant, as opposed to having heated discussions about which flavor of pancake is best. And you don't have to read them :razz: Obviously the best flavor of pancake is waffle flavor. There's not even room for a heated discussion there... Of course you'd say that, waffle-heathen. I don't know why we even bother with your kind on the forums.

This. [bleep]ing this. This a million times. +1 is not enough. Especially when the topic is irrelevant or tragic. Those kinds of people deserve their teeth punched out.

The Back Room
Accidents can happen in any vehicle. The thing with motorcycles is that they're smaller and the driver is unprotected. Just as some idiot could run a red light in an SUV, another idiot could weave between cars at 70 MPH on a freeway, or some unlucky guy could be making a turn while said idiot ran a red light while another unlucky guy could get hit on the freeway because someone else didn't bother to check his blind spots. Driving in general is dangerous, but we need it until we come up with something better.

I find quarters. That's about it. Lost plenty of stuff though.

What book are you currently reading?
You should read her book The Thief Lord if you haven't already. It's one of my favorite books ever. <3: Was wondering why that author's name was so familiar before that post. Good book :thumbup: Finished Sphere, now going to read A Feast for Crows, then probably more Crichton stuff (I blame Serp) until I can find the first book(s) of the Wheel of Time series.

These sort of responses are baseless and fatuous. They're editorials. There's supposed to be bias.

Facebook statuses like these..... Not the content, the way it is typed. Not to say the content can't be bad. That kind of thing usually comes from teenagers who want to seem smarter than they actually are. It's the kind of thing this forum is built on, but at least we're literate :twss:

True. I was just talking about high levels in general, I have no idea how the top players manage it. This whole "Not arguing with you" thing is new to me. :-P- [TF2] It's MANN Vs. Machine!
I'm not sure if it was ever discontinued. I bought L4D2 in late 2010 and still got the hat.- Things that annoy the HELL out of you.

- How bad do you slack?
On the other hand, older accounts had to train with much slower methods to get to that point. A player who got 99 fishing in 2005 did so with ~30k XP/hour at most, while a player today can reach up to 100k/hr. As time passes, it'll only get easier to get higher levels, because we'll get more toys to train with and more knowledge on how to best train with them. - Tip.It Times - 25th September 2011
