  1. Because Hillery can't stand the truth? Hey! When they released a book about Bush.. no one cried or tried to "surpress" anything from the general public RIGHT?
  2. quote: Carl Limbacher Jr Monday, June 27, 2005 In what may be an unprecedented act of media censorship, several major TV and cable networks - including NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, Fox and CNN - have cancelled planned appearances of the author of the new, red hot book on Hillary Clinton. Edward Klein's sizzling new biography "The Truth About Hillary: What She Knew, When She Knew It and How Far She'll Go to Become President" has caused a storm of controversy after Sen. Clinton lashed out at it. Her aide called the book "full of blatant and vicious fabrications contrived by someone who writes trash for cash." Hillary's top aides and supporters have also launched a major effort to stop any discussion of the book over the TV airwaves. So far, their censorship effort has been a huge success in stopping Klein from appearing on television. Though the celebrated author was scheduled to appear on more than a half dozen major TV network shows, all have cancelled except one, Fox's "Hannity & Colmes." However, conservative host Sean Hannity did reveal that he was under immense pressure to cancel the program. "I've had more political pressure than I've ever had in all my years in radio," Hannity said to Klein during a radio interview. "Do you know the number of requests I've had to cancel you and not have you on this program? I've never in the history of this program had more demands to cancel the guest." Hannity did not identify the source of the "political pressure." Other hosts had similar experiences. Salem Radio Network's Mike Gallagher, syndicated nationwide, said he was deluged by emails opposing Klein's scheduled appearance and demanding he drop the author. Gallagher described the campaign as "very unnatural, like an orchestrated [effort]" and not from his listeners. Hillary Pressures Networks to Cancel Klein And people claim the Media ain't bias? Ummm... open yer eyes everyone, this article just proved that fact
  3. 200 yards? That girl didn't bother to listen to what either her parents said, or from what the guards said, Hell she shouldn't have even been OUT that far! Sharks won't attack a person unless movement or blood is detected Blood expically! It seems them into a feeding frenzy Thats why if you have a cut they tell you, DO NOT SWIM When I went to Cali for a field trip with my high school three years ago, I was told that by the teacher, and yes I had a cut, it wasn't bleeding but I was told to stay out of the water Even dried up blood still leaves a scant scent for sharks and that scant scent will still put them into a feeding frenzy Young people these days think there invincible and that nothing will happen to them, well, this case just proved otherwise
  4. Would rather believe them than someone who isn't in there position We've always been at risk of attack, so it's nothing new
  5. under DxDiag the system model is blank, but thats because last november I had to have my system formated and everything reinstalled Originally, this system was an Alienware My bios information is as follows, and I will be updating my profile to reflect this: Bios Date: 10/26/04 17:00:58 Ver: 08.00.09 I know there old, but I have a thing about not touching my bios.... afraid I might screw something up All I know is that it's an ASUS motherboard As for beeps... I stopped counting around 15 how many after that I don't recall
  6. Not sure if this belongs in the Technology forum or not Pretty much, I need an opinion or something from some of you computer pros (ok, so I work on a computer 24/7, but this issue really has me stumped Was playing UC and was in the process of one hell of a battle between the Gammys and my fleet I ordered by carriers to launch there fighters, the game suddenly frooze... this has NEVER happened before, I've been in countless battles with well over 20-30 ships at any given moment and my computer's never frooze like this Well.. it stayed like that for a few minutes, then began to move.. and suddenly the system crashs... ok no problem, will head on over here to see if a new issue came up in the recent patch Unfortantly, I never got that far. I got as far as the bios information, and then suddenly my screen turned into little colorful squares, and flashing squares to At first, I thought it was my Nvidia card, so I went out to Best Buy, used the warrenty (cause my card was only 6 months old, and I had a 2 year warrenty) Inserted the sucker.. and booted up Hey! Wait a minute.. what the heck are all these colorful sqaures doing on a BRAND NEW card! So, after that little experience, I took the card out. Went into my fathers shed, and found the old Radeon 9800 Pro I used in my old alienware system *the one with the dead motherboard and fried hard drives* I insert that sucker, boot up... and everythings just fine... other than the 640x480 screen size (MY EYES!) Well, my father and I head back to best buy with BOTH cards.... now, I personally hate it when something is defective... but my father REALLY hates it when a $499 peice of hardware burns out on us! So, they tell us. "You can either exchange it for a similer one, or we can refund you" Talk about a bunch of bull, so instead. We leave... come back an hour later and this nice woman is at the register "Sure, just go back to where you found it and choose a different card. Doesn't matter if it's Nvidia or Radeon" Talk about a difference. So I go back and choose a Radeon X800 XL 256 MB And since then... no problems... UC works like a dream... if anything.. even better than a dream The card I had was an Nvidia GeForce 6800 GT OC (Overcloaked) I didn't find out till today that my nvidia had been FLASHED! 6 months ago I had bestbuy install that card for me, cause I didn't trust an OC card becuase I was afraid I'd burn it out. When I Told them I wanted to control the overclocking, they said they'd need to 'twick' the drivers With all honesty, I should've paid more attention. I never bothered to check my paper work or ask what they meant But, that's that. Apperently, it doesn't matter WHAT Nvidia card I put in. Weather it's a Geforce 3, or a Geforce 6 (GT) the motherboard refuse's to recognize it and cause's the screen to turn into these nice shades of color Anyone have any thoughts on this? As to why the motherboard is creating this affect and why it won't accept the Nvidia anymore?... not like I care since the first GT has two holes through it (one right where the fans are, another near the connectors)
  7. I watched several of these while at Basic Training... and a lot of them brought tears to my eyes But most importantly, they showed what our boy's are capible of ... some are Tribut's, like the videos Trbutation "A tribute to those on the ground in Iraq with grit in their teeth and getting the job done! " ----------- Divine Intervention "A hammer, a box of nails, and some helping hands can go along way in Iraq" "Have you seen the pictures coming out of Iraq lately? If that question brings images of Abu Ghraib prison to mind, that's because the mainstream media sucks!" ----------- Helo Thunder There are plenty of other video's there to, trust me, ya'll will love them And please keep the military bashing out of this thread ok
  8. quote:Originally posted by Marvin: quote:Originally posted by Kalshion: ...I'll need to wait 6 months before I can join the active service (military).... Welcome back, Kal. After reading the above statement, though, I think you might be in line for The Remo Award for refusing to sit down and take it easy. ha ha hardy ha ha I needed that laugh
  9. Hey all Some in the fleet already know why I'm back early.. well.. the short story I broke my leg, sorta speak, more like it has 9 sever stress frature's that made it impossible to continue basic training I've been discharged from Army and, well suffice it to say, I'll need to wait 6 months before I can join the active service (military) Since I've been gone 3 months, my father's had time to... rearrange my computer room... errr... It'll take time for me to settle back in and get back to work, unsure what work has been done with the marine academy, although with my current interest it might just take me a little while longer (need to talk to the doctor and get some other thing's fixed) Anyway, I'll get the academy back up and running in a few days, but until then only the first 2 marine mission's are availible, the other's are located on this system SOMEWHERE.. But.. it's good to be back =) Back to a community that I trust and love to browse.. hope no one's been a pest while I've been gone hehe
  10. Just because you have shield's and armor doesn't mean you can't be killed... The same goes for the ground, just because you're wearing a bullet proof vest doesn't mean you can't be killed by being shot in the chest
  11. Commandche, I already answered that quote: Certain transports around the galaxy will appear with them on it (good luck finding WHICH) there is no set spawn location for those transports, sometime's you might get lucky and down a transport that has one, but the odd's are stacked against you (then again, I've been quite lucky, I downed 5 transport's deep in gammy terroritory and managed to get ahold of 4 artifacts, and a crud load of other useful parts that'll keep me going for quite some time) You need to SEARCH, that's the fun of this game, no one will tell you exactly where, for example, all I said is where I found mine, but then again, someone else might've gotten lucky and found them elsewhere, the possibilitys are ENDLESS That's the fun of this game, Search, Explore, Experiment, use you're creative mind to find thing's out
  12. Cheat Codes are unsupported And as for the speed, please search the board
  13. ok... now this is getting ridiculous, I can understand the need to be sure and such... but the evidence is stacked against this kid Maybe the people they talked to are lieing, perhaps they aren't, unless someone has a time machine to go back in time to actually check the legitamacy Any other way, I guess in my off time's at Basic Training I better becareful what I write..
  14. U.S. Calls Italian Journalist's Claim 'Absurd' quote: WASHINGTON -- The White House on Monday said it was "absurd" for a former hostage in Iraq to charge that U.S. military forces may have deliberately targeted her car as she was being rushed to freedom. What I'd like to know is WHY this woman think's our force's deliberately targeted her...
  15. My best so far is 13000 and height of wel lover 4000 Other heights can be found on www.starfleetplatoon.com where some of our members have tried playing the game as well, some are doing a good job Edit: Gah! Forgot mention, we host a mirror for the game, the game was made by some other company. The flash game is based off an adult japaanese game.. Here's a link for more information Nanaca Crash
  16. Just thought I'd post an update to this story (Fox News) ROME ÔÇö Italy demanded answers Saturday as former hostage Giuliana Sgrena was taken off a flight from Iraq hooked to an intravenous drip for a shoulder wound inflicted when American troops fired on a car taking her to the Baghdad airport. quote:The shooting at a U.S. checkpoint in Baghdad (search) stoked anti-war sentiment in Italy, where the public was widely opposed to the government's decision to send 3,000 troops to help U.S.-led efforts to secure the country from a violent insurgency. President Bush (search) promised a full investigation------------------------------------------------- (News Max) Sgrena: U.S. Troops are War Criminals quote:Giuliana Sgrena, the Italian reporter who is accusing U.S. troops on firing on her vehicle for no reason after being released by Iraqi terrorists on Friday, is a harsh critic of the U.S. liberation who has written dozens of reports accusing American soldiers of war crimes, torture and of massacring Iraqi civilians. ------------------------------------------------- ROME, Italy (CNN) -- An Italian journalist shot by U.S. forces in Iraq shortly after being freed from her captors disputes a U.S. account of the incident in which she was wounded and a security agent protecting her was killed. quote:In an article published Sunday in her newspaper, Il Manifesto, Giuliana Sgrena wrote, "Our car was driving slowly," and "the Americans fired without motive." (Read the article) She described a "rain of fire and bullets" in the incident. The U.S. military said Sgrena's car rapidly approached a checkpoint Friday night, and those inside ignored repeated warnings to stop Again, just an update on this story
  17. And I thought heading to school at four am in the morning was dedication, this kid just beat the student council's record Glad the police where around
  18. My father's friend told me to do that, which I am (funny how Nvidia didn't tell me...)
  19. I contacted them again and this time I got a diffrerent person (got the same person the last 2 time's I called) after awhile they asked me to ship it to them so I did, they said if it seem's like a hard ware failure they'll send me a new one (mer, they better!) For the time being, I'm using my old FX card (which is in good shape)
  20. Maybe it is Scrivener, maybe my assumption is wrong, but you just said it yourself quote:Those are facts we just-dont-know
  21. Afriad not, actually, I'm completely without a card now... was playing SW: Republic Commando and my card burned a whole in itself (don't ask me how) I've got my sight's set on an X800 but .... well.... circumstances are kinda perventing me from going to the store right now
  22. quote: Judge Kalshion has already tried and convicted this young fellow with no more information than what a Lexington TV station decided to post on it's web site. Shame on you Kal. Why thank you Defense Attorny Wolferz Honestly, I judged him due to the following: 1. Lack of Common Sense 2. Lack of any proper knowledge of fictional and non-fictional story writing, in other word's, he didn't know that his story's would be taken for real, which is where common sense come's in, you could always mark you're storys in a way that make's it so they don't sound real However, I appluad is parents though. Why? Because they probably don't know where kid might be up to, for all we know that story could very well contain information for a terrorist group WE DO NOT KNOW, It's just a hypothetical situation coming from someone who's spent 11 year's writing fiction and non-fiction storys Who knows? Maybe the kid was getting ready for another columbine (forgive me for saying that if there are people here who where involved, just using it for a reference) but again, we don't know, thing is people can't take chance's anymore
  23. Um.. help him? Why? If the kid was stupid enough not to write something in the mergin along the line's of "this is only a story based off a fictional enviroment" or "the following is not real" then he wouldn't be in trouble It'd be just like me and my storys, I have several that the authoritys could consider 'terrorist' due to there nature, but the reason no one has reported them is because I took the proper step's to ensure there legitamacy along with making sure there ok The same thing could be said about other books out there, the reason's some of those book's haven't been considered for such a genra is due to the writers if you're going to write, at least have enough common sense to understand that you're storys could be taken out of context, and that if you don't take the proper steps things can happen I view this as more a of a hard lesson, although I do agree the degree and sentence IS a bit harsh. What I believe is that he should just be tossed in jail for a few days or weeks, and then taught a few things, then let him out... but thats my opinion
  24. Whoa..... I've seen those guns in movie's and such but never like THAT before! Awesome =D I'm also going to ignore what Wolferz said, since i consider it rubbish
  25. Actually, I thought I had pre-ordered mine (ordered it monday) so I never bothered to really check it, but when I checked it after receiving it DID say (import) so it was my own dumb fault for not checking, but it wouldn't have mattered anyway, would've still ordered it
