It also uses basically the same DRM that Ubisoft recently implemented. Although EA apparently does not think it's DRM.

I am currently running this:
Core2Quad q6600
4GB DD2
Geforce 8800 GTS
Asus P5B-E
Hard Drives, etc...

Is it worth right now building a new i5/i7 Quad system or just upgrading some of the components in this rig?

A friend has all of Voyager on DVD and I'll see if i can borrow it from him and get you the clip you need.

As far as I know the main pay for ebooks sites are the aforementioned Kindle store and Mobipocket, eReader, and BN's ebook store. I haven't checked how all the prices compete, as I pretty much only use my Kindle now.

Bah missed the edit window.

I meant to say that we have seen that there is a differentiation between killing with white and black magic in universe.

Why do you think the Blackstaff is called the Blackstaff? Perhaps because he uses black magic? :) Further, when Dresden found out about McCoy's position, note that he immediately feels betrayed at the very thought of McCoy using magic to kill people, and finds it inconsistent with his soulgaze of M...

Black magic, in the Dresdenverse, is not a variety of magic per se. Any magic used to break the Laws is considered black magic. Some varieties, such as telepathy and necromancy, are considered more inherently corruptive than homicide or precognition, both of which are permitted to limited extents. ...

You really have no basis to assume that the Laws of Magic would be suspended under any circumstance. The dogma of the White Council is that the use of black magic drives you insane and makes you evil. Now, there is some room for debate about this, both in and out of universe, but it's worth noting ...

Finished up How to Build a Dinosaur and read Death from the Skies by Dr. Phil Plait. Also read the first 3 Dresden Files books and am currently reading The Hobbit.

Just finished Lord of the Rings, currently on How to Build a Dinosaur by Jack Horner and James Gorman.

A small update on this since it happened close to me. The kid was moved from the county jail to a juvenile detention center. He is also going to be charged with 2 counts of homocide. Edit: Found a source on the local news website: Pregnant Shooting Victim Laid To Rest NEW CASTLE (KDKA) ― [Click to z...

SO Mike Green is officially this shiznit. 8 striaght games with a goal for a D-man setting a new record, he is up to 22 goals for the season which puts him 8 up on the nearest competition amongst D-men, had 6 straight multi-point games before last night, and oh yeah he missed a couple game early th...

THE doctor who sparked the scare over the safety of the MMR vaccine for children changed and misreported results in his research, creating the appearance of a possible link with autism, a Sunday Times investigation has found. Confidential medical documents and interviews with witnesses have establi...

Looked a hell of a lot more like Intentional Grounding. I see the Zebras still love Pittsburg.

PittsburgH.

Nice D by the Cards.

Sorry missed the edit time window. You guys are right, ST weapon design has been done to death. I'm just gonna let it go.

Gee sorry. I didn't realize that discussing sci fi had no place on a sci fi discussion forum. This community discusses design issues in many sci fi universes all the time, sorry I expressed an interest in poor design choices in ST's small arms.

Well I'm assuming there's some overall art design reason why they want it bright and flashy, intead of them just doing it because it's bright flashy ST . :) True, I also just thought that perhaps the weapon automatically flips the barrel with a button press or something, eliminating some, but not a...

Quick derail this thread into meaningless firearm trivia! Oh shit sorry I see you guys are on that already lol. I'll never understand the problem prop designers have with over-under configurations. If stun has to be a 'different' thing with a different look (so the audience knows or whatever) they ...

I figured out what the duck-bill extension on the rear of the phaser is for: so the user can handle the massive recoil! Just like the one on this real-life gun: http://www.dreadgazebo.com/gunporn/wp-content/uploads/2007/05/colt45-again.jpg But BIGGERZ! jeez its a beavertail safety :P. Its actually ...

I am really hoping this isn't how it is in the movie, and the bloody thing still needs a trigger guard. And bullets! 7.62 NATO! Just like it should have been in TOS and that's what they use in my fic! You're right! How dare I complain about poor design of the weaponry in Trek again! Rotating the ba...

The gun barrel pivots horizontally to switch from Stun to Vaporize, with each setting having its own set of lights and sounds.

Awesome review Chuck. The albino dominatrix crack nearly floored me. Really interesting to see how the director and de Lancie shaped the dialogue.

Are you going to do a video review of First Contact?

Oh man that would be awesome. Any chance of maybe say an every few months movie special review?

Did Eureka get canned? That was a lot of fun. If it was in any way remotely witty or clever, either it's already been shitcanned or soon will be. Such programming does not fit in with the New Improved Vision™ for SciFi. It got renewed for a third season, actually. Man, look at all the negativity in...

About what I expected for Stargate: Voyager. Stargate: Enterprise to follow next. I haven't followed the development of that show so is it going to be the same writers?
