    Wal-Mart looks to Hispanic market

    Problem is, that isn't going to even make a dent in the total population of ******* immigrants, plus when the economy finally stabilizes, they'll turn right around.

    What can i get away with?

    I think the first thing you should do is move away from this idea of trying anything that "I can get away with". It'll probably be a lot more productive if you treat it as, "what can we try together".

    T.O. Sings With The Buffalo Bills......."WOW"

    I think there are at least 4 members of the Dallas Cowboys franchise that would disagree with that statement. Their names are Tony Romo, Jason Whitten, Jerry Jones, and Wade Phillips. His behavior won't change, he has become problematic everywhere he's been, and until NFL teams realize this...

    Leaglize the Weed

    You know, removing the argument about ********* for a second, this story really highlights a lot of what is compounding a lot of political issues. Oregon shouldn't even bother, California has tried it, and while I know San Francisco still has places to get legal *********, the vast majority of...

    Radiohead Puts Miley Cyrus In Her Place...

    I see what you're saying, but I think you're missing the point here. Sure she wanted to meet them, but the rationale was completely narcissistic. She wanted to meet them because she was a fan, not because she was a fan. The emphasis being on her being entitled to a meeting because she is Miley...

    I'll miss Late Night, but I've actually liked most of what I've seen of Fallen so far. I'm actually pretty excited for Conan on the Tonight Show.

    YouTube blocks UK users

    Why all the Google ****? It's not their fault the agreement couldn't be reached, as they were willing to pay to allow music to be played. From what I've been hearing, PRS wanted upwards of a dollar a song on YouTube, which is beyond insane. Now I may be a bit biased because I work in the...

    Stewart hammers Cramer...

    I was actually quite surpised at how many of the points Stewart made were agreed upon by Cramer. As much as he may be guilty of journalistic fraud, I think there's something to be said of him actually admitting the industry has to change. (I know that he may not have been genuine, but I'm gonna...

    The team doctors wouldn't have been able to diagnose anything without taking an MRI, which is typically not a part of a routine physical. The actual injury he sustained (the torn labrum in the hip) is actually something that a number of athletes have played through (Mike Lowell last year being...

    Couldn't agree more. Like I said, there's a pretty strong correlation between the two. The issue for me though, is that there are people who say Ryan Howard, Adam Dunn, Jack Cust and the lot like them need to cut down strikeouts to increase their power and offensive output, and that logic is...

    MLB 2009 thread

    Historically, players who have a high SLG% and who hit for a lot of "traditional" power (HRs) have a correlated high strikeout rate. Simply put, people who tend to hit for more power usually swing harder, and miss more often. Those who don't strikeout much and hit for a great deal of power are...

    MLB 2009 thread

    Yeah, he can play it, but, as I said, his natural position is first. If he gets significant playing time in New York, I will genuinely be surprised. I say this not to offend any Yankee fans, but he's probably not going to fit the mold as a typical Yankee hitter.

    MLB 2009 thread

    Swisher's natural position is first. Since he's now been relegated to outfield duty, the Yankees would be wise to put him in right, followed by left. Personally, I think he's there as trade bait first and as a potential member of the team second.

    Windows Update Problem

    I'm pretty sure this is the Vista permissions error. If I recall correctly, your OS messed up getting permissions to check for updates. I think repairing from your Vista boot CD is the easiest way to clear it up.

    Wow I haven't heard of anyone using Debian for quite some time! I used to like Debian quite a lot, and I'm sure I've got it somewhere on one of my computers (I've dual-booted damn near every machine I've had for the past 3 or so years)

    I actually think Windows 7 is starting to incorporate more features that Windows has long needed. I'm running it both on a desktop as a stand-alone OS, and on my laptop through VMWare Fusion, and I like it, I really do.

    New Call of Duty: World at War

    I understand financially in the short term why they would just ride Activision's coattails, however there is a bigger market for ingenuity in genres like WWII than there are in repeating a past game. COD4 was good because it basically started from the ground after COD2. My assumption was World...
