  1. Perfect Dark is the greatest game of all time hands-down. I have spent over 500 hours of gameplay on it, and I don't regret any of it. Perfect Dark Zero? eh... I'm a little skeptic, I would like to try it out. But the thing is, I'm not getting an xbox 360, period. :cry: If it gets released for the computer, I'm getting it.
  2. Yes, and what is your experience exactly? High School? Trust me, what most consider "love" in high school is exactly what you said, lust. When you love someone, there isn't any lust involved. You love them for who they are, not because you want sex with them. Now, I know a girl, and she means a lot to me, more than any girl. The thing is, I don't feel for her the same way I do about other girls. For other girls, I feel "oh yeah, I would want to hit that..etc." but with her, it's different. I am not sure how to explain it. It's not that I don't want sex, it's that it isn't important with reguards to her. Just being with her, talking to her, and making her happy is more than enough for me. Is that love? I wouldn't know. But when I met her I couldn't stop thinking about her for several days...and I still can't stop. Sometimes I just stop whatever I'm doing and just think about her, it feels good. You tell me what that is if not love. :?
  3. DaN that is awesome, especially if you add the sound of fumbling with the phone before saying "hello". wow, I wanna try that! if only some telemarketers would call me...
  4. the crime rate might have gone down, but that says nothing about the severity of the crimes that are committed nowadays.
  5. 1. Download the Java Runtime Environment http://www.java.com/en/download/windows_xpi.jsp Click the first download button to the right of "Windows (XPI)" 2. Download the Keyboard Class http://duke.csc.villanova.edu/jss1/book ... yboard.jsp Click on cs1jar.zip. 3. Download Textpad http://www.textpad.com/download/index.html Once you download those things, open textpad. Then go to the Configure tab at the top and scroll to preferences. Click on tools and then click on add and then add Java. once you have done that, copy my first program into textpad and save it as Manipulation.java. Then open a new document, and save my second program as Choices.java. Then open a new document, and save my third program as DecimalBinaryOperations.java. new document, 4th program as FractionalBinaryOperations.java. new document, 5th program as Rational.java new document, 6th program as Formulas.java new document, 7th program as Averages.java *note: Java is case sensitive, so save these files as EXACTLY as shown or my program won't run. Now, go back to Manipulation.java and compile it (ctrl + 1) Then run it (ctrl + 2) follow the instructions from there! (Yes, I know this takes a while to make it work, but trust me, you'll love this program for your math homework.) :D
  6. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid ... 8207965240 :lol: the game is rated M for mature, with good reason!
  7. How come it can speak German too!? Wow, that's awesome. Human: Was ist Ihr Name? [What is your name?] Skeet: Have you tried a web search? Human: Ich verstehe nicht. [i do not understand.] Skeet: Was genau verstehst Du daran nicht? [What exactly don't you understand about it?] Human: Ich weiÃÆÃâÃâ¦Ã¸ nicht. [i do not know.] Skeet: Aha...und weiter? [and furthermore...?] Human: nein [no] Skeet: OK. [OK] Human: Ich mÃÆÃâÃâöchte Geschlecht mit Ihnen haben. [i want to have sex with you] Skeet: Das ist eine gute Information. [That is good information] :lol:
  8. No. I don't think the studying would have helped me besides helping me do the test faster. I finished all the sections in the nick of time. And yeah, I was just joking about the 2390, but I know I'll get over 2100 for sure. :wink: Next week I'm taking the ACT!!! :shock:
  9. W00t, pwnage, I did awesome on it, I didn't have to guess for any of the questions. And I only left 1 answer blank because I didn't know what the words in the answers meant lol.... 18 days till I see my score of 2390 :P
  10. um... maybe like one day for each part of the program? So yeah, I'm thinking to add more and more functions to it to make it better and better. Right now it helps so much with my math homework... :D I'm probably going to add geometric figure calculations to it soon... finding the perimeter and area of any plane figure would be nice to implement.

First, tell me how good it is for a person that's only known Java for 3 months. Then, could you tell me how to implement the median and mode into my Averages Class?

  15. Um.. the reason why I made this calculator is because it is FASTER and BETTER. Enter 2 decimal numbers and it does five operations at once. Enter 2 fractional numbers and it does four operations at once. And, last time I checked, the calculator with windows doesn't have the Quadratic Equation, and it doesn't give you all the possible factors as well. Neither does the windows calculator have Cramer's Rule. And you can't use it to find the mean, median, and mode easily. public class Rational { private int numerator, denominator; public Rational (int numer, int denom) { if (denom == 0) denom = 1; if (denom < 0) { numer = numer * -1; denom = denom * -1; } numerator = numer; denominator = denom; reduce(); } public int getNumerator() { return numerator; } public int getDenominator() { return denominator; } public Rational reciprocal () { return new Rational (denominator, numerator); } public Rational add (Rational op2) { int commonDenominator = denominator * op2.getDenominator(); int numerator1 = numerator * op2.getDenominator(); int numerator2 = op2.getNumerator() * denominator; int sum = numerator1 + numerator2; return new Rational (sum, commonDenominator); } public Rational subtract (Rational op2) { int commonDenominator = denominator * op2.getDenominator(); int numerator1 = numerator * op2.getDenominator(); int numerator2 = op2.getNumerator() * denominator; int difference = numerator1 - numerator2; return new Rational (difference, commonDenominator); } public Rational multiply (Rational op2) { int numer = numerator * op2.getNumerator(); int denom = denominator * op2.getDenominator(); return new Rational (numer, denom); } public Rational divide (Rational op2) { return multiply (op2.reciprocal()); } public boolean equals (Rational op2) { return (numerator == op2.getNumerator() && denominator == op2.getDenominator() ); } public String toString() { String result; if (numerator == 0) result = "0"; else if (denominator == 1) result = numerator + ""; else result = numerator + "/" + denominator; return result; } private void reduce() { if (numerator !=0) { int common = gcd (Math.abs(numerator), denominator); numerator = numerator / common; denominator = denominator / common; } } private int gcd (int num1, int num2) { while (num1 != num2) if (num1 > num2) num1 = num1 - num2; else num2 = num2 - num1; return num1; } }

  20. Wait... what? Where does it say eternal? That's gross misinterpretation. Nowhere is the word eternal used. And nowhere is timeless to be found. And also, "coming in peace" is so ambigious it could mean anything. And like I said, Jesus did NOT come in peace; he caused a whole load of trouble. And I fail to see how a military conquerer could not be eternal, timeless, and not come in peace, because
  21. so... are you trying to say that the Bethlehem clan doesn't exist? It doesn't mean it isn't true, but then there is not rational reason to believe it then. Theology is a fortress, the smallest crack can destroy it. And the thing is, it is irrelevant whether Mary is a descendant of King David, I'll explain below. lol no, that's not how the Jews saw ancestry back then. First off, women didn't have any ancestry, period. It doesn't matter about the woman, the man is the one that decides what the child is according to Jewish culture at that time. That's why in the Old Testament, Moses commands the Israelites to rape all the non-Israelite women. That's because they only care that the father is Jewish; patrilinal descent. There was no such thing as "adoption" back then. According to the Jewish culture of his time, Jesus has no lineage, because he has no father. Joseph doesn't become the "legal father" of Jesus, that's nonsense. It's the same reasoning as to why kings often had to divorce their barren wives to have a child. They couldn't just "adopt" a kid and proclaim. "Yeah, this is my heir". :roll: so... Jesus cannot possibly considered part of King David's "lineage" at that time. Nowadays the definitions are different, and the NIV and the other new Bibles exploit this in exchange for gilded legitimacy.
  22. It's a matter of how much force is needed to subdue them. If a little kid comes at your with a knife, that's different than if a criminal comes at you. And you have to make sure it doesn't end up as YOU being the aggressor, ever. If you knock the guy with the knife down and then get on top of him and beat him, that's illegal. If you knock him down and run, then that's allowed. If knocking him down kills him, oh well. Basicly, if they put you in REAL danger of your life, you can use deadly force.
  23. Yes, either on my main (Kirbyteam) or my pure (run2lumbynub). 5 prayers every day, and the reason for each one is the same; getting close to God.
  24. I never said Bethlehem isn't a place, I said that there is also a clan of Bethlehem. And in Micah 5:2, it is referring to the clan. And, Christ didn't come from anyone. He has no lineage besides God and Mary, and Mary's lineage isn't really recorded (women weren't recorded). Would you mind explaining how you arrive at the conclusion that this passage is referring to more than one "he"? I don't know what you are talking about, I never edited my message... First off, all Muslim women are required to wear hijab, it is a tautology. Hijab's definition is the clothing that women must wear as required by Islam. Second, who is she? I'm not sure what to say, this question is a little too vague. Turkey - I don't really have an opinion, but I'd say that Turkey should be let in. Israel - return to pre-1967 borders, no more fighting.
