  1. Personality is more important tbh....besides, I know it's horrible but I'm guessing you're not out of high school yet, and I remember a lot of really ugly girls from my high school got really hot once they matured.
  2. They should just stay British, although it does seem unfair that Argentina inherited them and can't have them..
  3. Search has always been iffy on these forums I find, same with the old ones.
  4. I think languages are important, but unless you have a truly bilingual country it shouldn't be mandatory.. For example, here, you learn french from kintergarden to grade 9 - and you can take it past that if you wish.
  5. ...really? If you honestly can't see what's wrong with that statement, then there's nothing more that I can say; there's no use addressing the rest of your post if you truly feel this way. It's ridiculous that I have to try to explain this at all. :? I agree completely - this sort of "she started it" attititude is ridiculous and frankly immature. I support 100% the protection of your assets, because, yes, it did seem like this woman was taking advantage of the situation, but, I'm sorry - wishing that kind of misfortune upon another human being is absolutely uncalled for. It seems to me that someone should be angry at the incredible naivety shown by your grandfather in becoming involved with a woman of this sort.
  6. I suppose it wouldn't matter if I said America got the most medals total which means they placed in the top 3 in more events than Canada did? I'm not claiming Canada did better than the States did - the states is by far the most dominant country at the Olympics, summer and winter, and they have a ton of phenomenla athletes. Still, Canada did improve significantly, and acheive something signficant, so I'm merely proud of my country for that.
  7. You know what, it isn't a great resource book - but that's not what it's supposed to be. If all the constant paragraphs of text and vague examples tend to confuse you, these books use a much more varied way of presenting the information. Now, I found for some things it basically resulted in a huge oversimplification, but for some harder concepts I picked them up really fast thanks to the explanations they gave.
  8. I really liked Head First PHP and MySQL: http://www.amazon.com/Head-First-MySQL-Lynn-Beighley/dp/0596006306/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1267463404&sr=8-2 I've read it all, haven't worked through the code examples much though, so I don't consider myself to have completed it. It's a very simple book, not like your typical textbook, lots of examples, it goes slowly, but I found that worked pretty well.
  9. Quite true dear sir. I shall now attempt to write such a method being extremely bored at work.. EDIT: Never mind, I won't, I forgot I don't have Java :(
  10. In general I find wikipedia to be pretty good - I'd never use it as a reference for anything but I usually start my research with a wikipedia article, it generally gives a good background, plus many references they use are great sources.
  11. Nice, I love the colours :D
  12. Wouldn't a clone method basically just contain the same thing?
  13. I'm not American, but I think this act should continue to be in place as long as the States is still in Iraq, Afghanistan.
  14. Aha such win... My question is...does it hurt to have those signs there? Even if one blind person happens to stumple across it, and it helps them, it's worth it.
  15. [bleep] yeah Canada, hockey gold and most golds by host :D
  16. Hmm, I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to do (never used byVal) but couldn't you just do something like this? Object a (property a, property b, property c); //object you want to clone to clone: Object b(a.getProperty(a), a.getProperty(b), a.getProperty(c)); Unless I'm not understanding what you want to do that seems like an easy way to do it.... If you wanted a unique object ID or something you could do a(1, b, c); b(1+a.getProperty(id);
  17. As much as it would be really cool to have one, I have a few concerns. 1) A good design - way too many people get chinese symbols, or skulls, barbed wire, roses...you get the idea 2) A good artist - if it's going to be on my body for my whole life, it had better look good, and I've seen way too many pictures of bad tatoos to want to take any chances. 3) Old age - I can't think of anything I would want to have on me for the rest of my life so no, I'll probably never get one.
  18. I don't understand why people make such a big fuss over that.....they just won an olympic medal, I'd be partying if that happened to me.
  19. Interesting. I'm curious to see what happens once the LHC becomes fully operational.

    Today...

    Anti-depressants pal, happy pills. That don't make you happy, just less miserable, and more stable. Amen to them tbh. Both my parents are on them and my dad in particular is quite unstable when he's not on them :unsure: I'll probably end up on them some day but for now I have to medicate myself with copious amounts of chocolate, like any girl does :P So today I went to college, nipped to the shop and got some Mini Eggs, then came home. Exciting times :thumbsup: Omg mini eggs are amazing <3: First real snowstorm today, people are complaining so much even though it's barely 6 inches.
  21. Wow I got that at like level 35 aha. Starting to be a pain in the [wagon] to level now, almost 48. Of course it gets worse...
  22. Indeed...Canadian women won gold, as expected. Men vs. Slovakia tonight, should be interesting.
  23. This is a good idea. Also, even if you just find a few people, looking through their friends can be helpful.
  24. Yeah I'm not really a fan of the whole leaf thing, but it still works quite nicely.
