Why would you send a murderer to rehab? Rehab is for drug addicts Because that's a prime example of how bad the penal system is in my country. I find that hard to believe, got a link? If it's true, that is bad, and is not at all what I am talking about http://www.dagen.se/dagen/article.aspx?id=220867 Use google translator swedish - english

Why would you send a murderer to rehab? Rehab is for drug addicts Because that's a prime example of how bad the penal system is in my country.

Edit: Posts before me. To Roccodog. ^ Yes, i'm not against rehab. I'm against less punishment - more rehab. You also have to take the victim/victims family into account. If a daughter is murderd, the murderer is 16, how do you think the family would feel if the murderer only has to go thru some "treatment"? There needs to be consequences from actions. http://forum.tip.it/topic/265452-things-that-annoy-the-hell-out-of-you/page__view__findpost__p__4425673 I agree that those, that are truly remorseful, and those that may have injured a party in self defence, should get rehab. I don't believe that someone that who stabs a person for his/her wallet is in need of imminent treatment, i want to see such people punished. There's a difference between Norway and USA when it comes to gangs, weapons, violence etc. So to say that the Norwegian penal system=less murders is not completely true.

Look at how wrong you are. Statistics has shown time and time again that the whole "arrhhh revenge and retribution" philosophy for criminals simply does not work as a deterrent, at all. In fact, and as an example, in the U.S (a country that eats the whole "an eye for an eye" [cabbage] up) over 2/3 of the criminals end up getting re-arrested within 3 years of release, and half get charged with a new crime. In contrast, Norway, which has one of the (if not the) highest prison standard in the world, where they truly focus on prison education and rehabilitating their criminals, hardly anybody gets re-arrested (I'm too tired to look up actual statistics right now, but it's unbelievably low). That's not the only problem with the U.S. prison system though, where both racism, torture and prison rape is pretty much guaranteed. It's one of the things about the country that makes me sick to my stomach. And rehab works? The amount of crimes commited in my country suggests that it doesn't work. Yes i know about Norway, i've seen a bit of that on tv. But most countries don't have it like that, mine for example doesn't. I want a criminal to be punished. The end. If someone rapes, or robs at gun point, or commits acts of terror, i don't want them to be able to skip punishment and just get sent to rehab or education. I purposely left out USA in my post. I don't want to get into a discussion about the American penile system. Obviously i know some of the faults. But, the weak sentences in Sweden for example, makes me angry. 18 year old commits a rape, and gets sent to "youth rehab". If you like that kind of penile system, go ahead and enjoy, we are only the number 2 in the world when it comes to reported rapes per capita in the world.

Some have already answered the way i would. But i'd like to add something else. I believe that the sentences, which should be a deterring factor, doesn't work. Now, what i mean is that, in most European countries, the laws are crap. It's all about the criminal and "boohoo poor criminal" and "let's rehab you, punishment sucks!". I so god damn hate this liberal nonsense stance on crime. Rehab doesn't work, if you rape someone, you aren't sane in the head and it would be a waste of time and money to try and fix that persons head. In rape for example, i believe going about such as Poland does towards pedophiles is a good start, and then add it together with a, say, 20 year sentence in a -non- luxury prison.

The questions and answers you could choose from were pretty limited... I wanted a 6th alternative on a lot of the questions. And nope, i don't disagree with you on the serial killer example.

Home premium. For the normal user, WinXP mode is the most interesting thing with professional. CORSAIR CMPSU-850TX 850W, non modular - 140 CORSAIR HX Series CMPSU-850HX 850W, modular - 180 Up to you what you prefer. For a build at this cost, i would personally go for a modular, but that's me. (nothing different otherwise between them) E: Without sounding like an arse, having seen some of your posts, i hope you understand how powerful this build will be. Even if you go with the single graphics card.

No. I don't know what cpu he has, but if the mobo is dead and there's still motherboards out on the market (new/used) that is the correct socket, it won't cost more than 50$ unless he has a high-end model.

I haven't replied to a thread in this area for a while, heh. I don't even remember what was new when i started (late 01 or early 02, don't remember really). I hm, let's see... i can barley remember the easter eggs. I remember the masks somewhat tho. Items, skills etc.. I don't know, memory gone! Well except when Runecrafting was released, at least i think it was. I remember when the magic xp was changed from high xp points to low. Maybe someone can help me out here. The needle scam still remains in my memory tho!

Yes, i understand what you mean. But you get more for your (her) money by building it yourself (you know how to, i assume). This build will be a little bit less costly, but i didn't react to the price itself from that combo deal - it was what you got for it. The following packs a bigger punch: I'd also like to point out that, the motherboard is SLI/CF compatible. But if you plan on doing that, you'll need to change the psu. Say, if so. Obviously you could also save money by choosing another case, such as the Antec 300, again, tell if you'd like it cheaper. Antec 900 - 120 Liteon cd/dvd read/write - 20 Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB - 100 Intel Core i7-930 2.8GHz - 304 SeaSonic 620W Modular - 93 GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R LGA 1366 Intel X58 - 230 EVGA GeForce GTX 460 Superclocked - 248 G.SKILL 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 1333 - 155 =1270 GELID Solutions Tranquillo CC cooler - 49 Noctua NH-U12DX 1366 120mm SSO CPU Cooler - 80 I recommend you to choose one of these cooler and ditch the original Intel. If you plan on overclocking, i recommend Noctua. Otherwise Gelid. Questions, ask.

Lol, 4850 and GTS250 perform the same, but 50$ difference! I just noticed now the x2, sorry. But i'd go 2x2gb instead of 4x1gb. http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211447 x2=83$ PSU: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371029 -47$ Case: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119115 - 41.50$ (i don't know if an older case will be used, just posting this if that's not the case) So pick this: Trolslayer - Mobo, cpu, harddrive, Me: Graphics card, power supply, ram and case. =495$

Not in Finland. I'm not sure if it's true, but I've heard that more people die here of vitamin D deficiency than skin cancer due to polar night (Opposite of midnight sun). As such I take vitamin D tablets once a day from October to April. Huh? I've lived in your neighbouring country for over 22 years and have never heard of this. And i should have picked it up since my mom is a nurse within the cancer field. Altho i live a couple of hours north of Stockholm. And i'd connect polar night to Lappland, and i've some relatives up there, but never heard about it either. ------ Anyways, was sick 1 day last year. That was the day after i had come home from a trip to Germany. No pills or anything, just eating relatively healthy and work out 5 times a week. Altho i in general seem to attract less sickness than my family, because they all get sick a couple of times per year but i never seem to catch their stuff.

Even politicians should be able to go on holiday. Altho she's more of a "face". Anyways, instead of supporting the rotten economy of USA she supports the rotten economy of Spain. I agree tho, that spending the holiday in the U.S should be enough and would also provide better pr.

Expensive. Even tho your mother doesn't like it, tho if you are 15+ you could probably argue why, and if you need i7-sort of build, i'll make a list tomorrow. 650w is easily enough, people think their stuff use 5billion watts and go out and buy ridicolous high wattage psu's.

^So where's the power supply? All 32bit OS' are limited to 3.5-ish gb, unless it's extended. And never use XP64 unless it's for a specific reason. And i'm too tired to link a build myself, but i'd go straight for 4gb ram. And i'd get the 4850 instead: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125236 50$ cheaper. Edit: Dude, you know GTS250 is quite powerful despite it's age right? I can play Crysis on medium setting 1440x900 with 4670, Assassins Creed (1&2) on high settings etc etc without lag.

I think knowing a couple of phrases in language-x or atleast be able to say "excuse me, do you speak English?" but in Italian, Japanese or whatever. It's a nice thing. Since most people speak English, i think some basics of it at least. If i live in Denmark, i don't expect an American tourist to speak basic Danish.

I've read that he got a 3-year sentence, but not that this automatically makes him a permanent resident. Mind directing me to an article that mentions this? Since he can't get deported, this makes the parents who are asylum-seekers getting "verkställighetshinder". [spoiler=Swedish text] Migrationsverket be[bleep]ar om uppehållstillstånd för bl.a. flyktingar och andra skyddsbehövande. Migrationsverkets be[bleep] kan överklagas till Utlänningsnämnden. Den som har fått avslag på ansökan om uppehållstillstånd och ett be[bleep] om avvisning som vunnit laga kraft kan ge in en ny ansökan om uppehållstillstånd till Utlänningsnämnden. En sådan ny ansökan får bifallas om ansökan grundar sig på omständigheter som inte har prövats förut i ärendet och om utlänningen har rätt till uppehållstillstånd som flykting eller skyddsbehövande eller om det annars skulle strida mot humanitetens krav att verkställa be[bleep]et om avvisning eller utvisning (2 kap. 5 b § utlänningslagen, UtlL). I vissa fall får ett lagakraftvunnet be[bleep] om avvisning eller utvisning inte verkställas. Det gäller när utlänningen riskerar att straffas med döden eller med kroppsstraff eller att utsättas för tortyr eller annan omänsklig eller förnedrande behandling eller bestraffning liksom vid risk för förföljelse samt om utlänningen har flytt undan krig eller en miljökatastrof och har synnerliga skäl mot att sändas till hemlandet (8 kap. 1, 2 och 4 §§ UtlL). Finns det hinder mot verkställighet enligt ovanstående innebär det samtidigt att utlänningen regelmässigt har rätt till uppehållstillstånd http://www.riksdagen.se/webbnav/index.aspx?nid=3322&rm=2004/05&bet=SfU3

I have ranted a bit about my country before in this thread, now some more! So, you wanna get permanent residency in Sweden? Here's how to: Be foreign, be 16 years old, murder a 16 year old Swedish girl. (since his a minor he can't be deported (blablabla, it's deemed "inhumane" in this country), get sentenced to 3 years of "closed social treatment (don't know proper word)", in this time he will for fill the time ratio for permanent residency). Yes, thank you! I love it. I laugh at those that don't see the present reality in this country.

Ultima Thule - Hycklarnas Parad

When In Rome. Pretty good, i was half-drunk so i didn't pay 100% attention. I give it 3.5/5. Here is the text i wrote down during the movie: [spoiler=Spoil]Started quite good. Easy to get into. Ganz ok Italiano auf die Americano. Sausage in a bag? Who gives non-cooled sausage away? It should be deliverd iced. Weird. Girl didn't prosecute the mummy hanging in the ceiling+camera guy for breaking-entering+destroying homeware. Her assistant has weird eyes. Hah, quite funny joke "in Italia this is a mid-size car". Las Vegas guy (without sounding gay) still looks good, just a bit older. Danny De Vito still haven't lost weight. While walking to the altar in the last ten minutes, the soundtrack is the same as the same as in the score of Hitman:Blood Money.

I have seen this before. I view it as half-lunacy conspiracy. While i have to admit, that i don't, and never will, support a globalist agenda, i find these movies amusing. To question the validly of 9/11 is bullcrap. It is all made up by conspirators that wish things to be different. No matter how left you are, you could never assume that G.W.Bush would initiate an attack on his own country. It is bullcrap and will forever be. As do i find the marionette "puppie" belief on Obama. Is their an elite in the world? Yes. Do i believe they decide on who to to be the United States of Americas next president? No. I also find their mumbo-jumbo bullcrap attack on capitalism is of small significance. Capitalism is the best way, and at the very lest, no mad conspirator will ever change my mind on it. Which i won't.

Short term (doing atm): Reading 2 courses in "adult school" and finishing them. Getting a job (applied for several, but holidays atm, so won't be called for interview until august). Play some more golf (cheap course close to me). Long term: Oh my... What to state here, my whole life??? Getting into Uni within IT and reading atleast 3 years in networking. Move abroad, i'm still pondering if i should learn German seriously or not. I would love the States, but my education (if uni) would be too little+Massive unemployment in US already. Only thing i do know, is that i won't live in Sweden by 30. I don't like my countries politics (you say - vote differently! But the "red/blue" here is more or less the same... No one want's to take care of crime, social, immigration etc issues except for one non-Government party). I would like to own a Ferrari, altho we all know oil is draining. I would also, probably, like to be a father in a few years time. All i know is, i don't won't to be an old father. I want to visit a few different places in Italy.

Aha. 4gb would for me, be still enough. You could ditch two rams, and put 2+2gb i guess so you get 6gb. Your computer is good, if you know how to, or has the desire to learn, then yes, i'd overclock. 4830 can get near to 4850 with OC. And Q6600 will easily get to 3ghz, 3.5-ish if you're good and gotten the right cpu and got the right hardware.

I've also got a Foxconn mobo. Do you have any possibility of testing the ram in another computer?
