Really, it's just a matter of logistics- it wasn't convenient to have anyone in the club head to Northwestern Memorial every day.

In his defense about the whole "Green Death" thing, kids soccer teams in that neighborhood have to be tough to get by. Just look at these guys:

"Some days, it seems father than other days..."

@Ravel: Based on the way the camera zoomed in on his reaction I assumed he was the reporter covering the story for PBS.

See, this is why I would be a terrible astronaut. I'd get up there and when presented with something like this I'd just lie to the kid.

Other. Lynx all the way.

I am comforted by the fact that, for the rest of her golfing career, she will only get worse.

I have a lot of faith in Vin. His games are better than his movies, it seems (Butcher Bay was a lot of fun and I hear good things about the upcoming Wheelman) and I think this departure could be nice. Vin Diesel is a well known hardcore D&D nerd, and I think that perspective will work in his benefit in crafting…

@SanvaliPyrrha: I have a GPU hash cracker that I use to test password security. On my gaming system it runs at a rate of 2200 MHash/second. Granted, checking every possibility for a ten character password at that rate would take ~54 years, but that's assuming good passwords. I could go through a dictionary hitting…

@Jason: There's also the fact that Governor Palin chose to have yahoo ask where she met her spouse as her security question. If the answer hadn't been readily available in previous interviews calling up her campaign staff and asking (saying it was for a blog or something) would have yielded the answer.

I like to take a dollar bill out of my wallet and use the serial as a password. Of course, I once accidentally spent the dollar before I had memorized the serial...

@takirb: That might have worked against a person trying to guess your password but in the much more likely event of someone cracking password hashes the cracker would have been delighted to see yours fall in well under a second.

@WardSparrows: When you try to enforce strong passwords, like the rules on some websites I've seen (must start with a letter, end with a number, stuff like that) you make it much easier to bruteforce since you lower the possible combination.

So will this one actually be coded well, or do they plan to utilize the "if it runs worse on people's hardware they'll assume the graphics are better" tactic? It seems to be working so it may not be a bad strategy.

Wheaton College in Illinois in 2003 revised a rule and now allows dancing on campus, as well as allowing students and faculty to smoke and drink off campus, which was previously prohibited.

The last Aston Martin Lagonda was a really tall car, though, so this makes perfect sense.

In my RSS reader this showed up as "Bubba the Love Sponge is a Midget" and when I clicked through I was very disappointed.

Well, you want something older, that won't go throwing airbags around at you. That shit'll knock you out and makes escaping pretty hard.

@sg-dub: Ah, but you forget Ezekiel 16:17 — Thou didst also take thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given thee, and didst not hold out for even more fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, whenst thou might have received a more princely sum, for truly he who does my work is the prince of the…
