"Let our children be whomever God meant them to be." Oh, yes, RON OR IS IT PEG, so true. But this is just after you said, "girls will always like pink" God did not make me to like pink. Or, more precisely, God made me smart enough to realize how sissy-girly poeple who thought I liked pink expected me to act that I have forever since associated pink with the weakest and most helpless stereotypes assigned to the female gender. Here you are, ASSuMEing that you know what God meant them to be, and it is this ASSuMEing things about people that cause them to get mad enough to riot in the streets.
I hate pink. To me, pink is representative of all the "girly" stereotypes that give people an excuse to keep girls out of things. Pink was picked for breast cancer BECAUSE breast cancer is considered a woman's disease (even though men do get it). When I was in summer school art class, we did silhouettes. The boys could choose light or dark blue for their backgrounds. The girls HAD to be on pink. I enjoy collecting pencils, and still check out the personalized pencils in school shopping season. Boys names are on pencils with cars, or cammo prints, or rocket ships. Girls: pink and flowers. Those of you who are saying people don't "have" to buy pink are right in theory, but don't realize how often the choice becomes "buy it in pink or don't buy it at all"
I read in some doctor's memoirs once about discussing how the hospital was going to make up the defecit caused by too many $100,000 procedures with $80,000 insurance companies' "paid-in-full" payments. Were would the hospital get the other $20,000? Plus, you've got doctors paying $100,000 (probably a lot higher since I first heard this figure) insurance premiums, which is why there are so few independent practitioners. And Capitol Hill thinks they're going to solve health care by giving Insurance power over EVERYONE?
Nope. Test measures intentions, not ability to carry it out.
After wathcing a few passes, I think there are actally TWO buildings, and he's coming down between them.
Ever see leaves swirling around in little circles? How 'bout a sailplane going "here" because there's an updraft, staying away from "there" because it a downdraft? Any balloonist can tell you that the wind blows in defferent directions at different altitudes. and the more vertical elements around (like buildings) the more different directions wind can go in. If the wind were constant, the flags would be standing nearly straight out with little ripples in them, not flapping this way and that.
You know, if you were going to fake it, it'd be easier to paste the guy in FRONT of the building, rather than disappear him behind it and keep the kite behaving believably.
As I said in my earlier post, there is a quality to a theater experience you can't get on a TV. I know I will never be able to afford "surround sound" in my home and will get that experience olny in a theater. I missed Speed Racer on the big screen, to my eternal regret. I heard some people got motion sickness watching that one in theaters; ain't gonna happen in front of a TV.

As to the argument about "companies" doing it deliberately, no legitimate company in America would install agressive malware under the guise of anti-virus software. Stuff spyware in a package maybe. But the people sending this stuff out are fly-by-nights at best, and professional criminals more likely.
I, for one, got tired of shows alway preaching a lesson of some kind or another. My favorite cartoons WEREN'T the preachy ones.

I suppose you'd feel better if, in the original Twighlight, she was driving around in a brand-new car that "God" somehow granted her and not the old pickup that her dad rebuilt for her? Or go off to some rock concert instead of a casual beach party where she could get to know her classmates? Or decide that legends of the "cold ones" was some old wives' tale that had nothing to do with the "now generation"?


And if you only see "progressive" messages (whatever that's supposed to mean) how are you ever going to see the warnings signs of a "non-progressive" danger?
Crescent Pitcher Show, Shawano, Wisconsin. Matinees $2, evening shows $3. And we've got people whining about THAT price and trying to haul monster stollers in so they don't have to buy a seat for the kid. I heard ther was a place up north somewhere that had $0.59 movies, but that was about five years ago.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
