My grandfather plays a video poker game called Deuces Wild and when the payouts are set just right and you play perfect you have a slightly over 100% payout. He has been playing for over a decade in Mesquite Nevada and has been making a sli

My experience doing business with Huawei and being on site for a while was that they even pit different divisions against each other. The fear of competition or being beaten by another Huawei division was much more evident than any external

From the Article "[2] True, Gore won the popular vote. But politicians know the electoral vote decides the election, so that's what they campaign for. If Bush had been campaigning for the popular vote he would presumably have got

It's the normal thing to do in the States too. Quote stolen from another thread: "Did you really think that we want those laws to be observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them broken. You'd better get it straight tha

Exactly. This entire tragedy was exactly what they needed to make sure that Americans had the proper amount of fear to begin giving up more rights. They made sure that the request was public so they could use this event as an anchor agains

It does make you wonder if they decided it would be best to kill some Americans in California to make a point that they needed power.[1] We know they had intent to protect their powers. We know that they are willing to train and create terr

I assume they all collude with spy agencies. Qwest's CEO learned the hard way what happens when you don't break the law when they order you to. That's the nature of corruption. They write laws that you have to break to survi
