Also we've apparently broke kicktraq, as they say "trending towards 3.467" and we're at 3.469!  Yeah, I noticed last night it was "busted" in this way. $247k yesterday. Wow. |

Sepharo isn't making a case for more lenient treatment, just that allowed paper mail isn't arbitrarily censored by the prison officials. He clearly indicated that if the mail specifically violates some rule it should be withheld. His position is very reasonable and is not some "bleeding heart" rant..
Incarceration is a complicated subject. You shouldn't treat shoplifters and potheads the same way you would murderers and rapists. You want to think that some crooks can be rehabilitated, but certainly some can't or don't want to be.
The positive example would be the segment on 60 Minutes this week. They featured a court in Texas which specifically deals with veterans. These guys come back from Iraq and Afghanistan with PTSD and don't get proper treatment, many times because it isn't made available to them, and end up committing a battery or other "violent" crime. Many (most?) of these guys are good guys with real problems. Throw them in Cutter's prison and you get a permanent criminal. Do what the court in Texas does, use probation, mandatory treatment, and counseling -- and instead 90% of the time you get back a functioning member of society. |

| I suspect most of the Internet hate on Joe Buck is simply because he isn't Jack Buck -- his famous, well loved, father. Joe is better than most of the talking heads in my book. I hear so many commentators say things which make absolutely no sense or are completely wrong. Joe Buck seems to do less of that. |

It's weird. It isn't a BAD game, it just isn't as good as it could/should be. [...] I never played Diablo 2 for the item grind. I just wanted to see how close to 99 I could get. I got a necro to 94... before the expansion, lol! That was a lot of Chaos Sanctuary runs!! I remember building multiple characters to 99. My favorite was the Javazon. Building to 99 wasn't so bad if you used the cow level.  |

Here's a trip down memory lane for some of us first gen gamers. For me it was a reminder of all the original arcade versions of many of those games which I spent hundreds if not thousands of dollars on. |

| Well, on the 11th thru the 14th they got $545,107, an average of $136k. Double that for today and tomorrow and you get just over $3.3m, add the Paypal and you are over $3.4m. Getting $3.5m is going to be close unless it kicks up again today or tomorrow. |

| Well, it's something you can do 30 minutes at a time over many, many weeks. That's what makes it casual. |

LoS in this game is seriously, seriously, seriously fucking BROKEN. Basically it doesn't really matter what kind of cover you have. If you're in range of an alien's gun, it will fire at you and most times it WILL hit you.
This turns it into not so much a game of tactics, as a game of health management. I'm actually getting kind of irritated with it, especially since that kind of bullshit puts my guy back in the hospital for 10 days. This seems to be a continuing theme of complaints. I never played the original, but have been considering giving this version a try. I think I'm going to wait a bit and hope for a patch that fixes this problem. If it doesn't get fixed I might try it when I run out of other games... |

Haha! After watching the "Honest Trailer" of Prometheus I watched the one for The Dark Knight -- it was great.

I was responding to being called a spammer, but I was just having fun because I figured you were just teasing.  |
