I've never seen someone who didn't know how to pluralize words until watching the pitch at the bottom. If I heard someone like that pitching me without a concept of "more than one" or past tense, no way I'd give them my money. Nor would I

what's wrong with allowing each member of that large group to petition congress, to "speak" so to speak independently. If every employee of GM wants to donate $2k to Obama, great, let them. If GM wants to donate $2M to Obama -- no way!

The lights out Denver actually sounds like a better Denver -- Bravo! No more wasting water on grass. We are facing a real water crisis in the world. No more redundant street lights to pollute the night sky. My car already has headlights

There are countless tragedies caused by police officers speeding after criminals. So I would say no, they shouldn't go speeding off after the criminals. As the cops often say, "You can't outrun radio waves!" In the robbing store case, ther

Contrary to popular opinion in the U.S., America is not a Space leader. Japan landed a probe on an asteroid. Russia beat the U.S. to space, to manned space flight, and to venus. Most of the U.S.'s belief in its universal superiority is fl

Reality: you speculated on real estate and lost. You can not afford to own a home anymore. Rent. Look at the silver lining. Due to ridiculous cultural issues in the U.S., you got to live well beyond your means for quite a long time.

sure you can, here's how $5/day on food $10/day rent $5/day utilities + entertainment $2.50/day transportation $22.50/day or $8,218.13 per year in expenses. At $5/hr, you are making $10k a year for a full time job w/ 2 weeks vacation.

I thought due to the headline indicating java, that maybe it just wasn't about MySQL, but I too find the lack of mention quite shocking. I don't use MySQL, but if I did, I'd be concerned about an upcoming lack of support for the platform.
