    NASA's Future Uncertain?

    http://spaceflightnow.com/news/n0908/12augustine/ Excerpt: So, what does CFC think is the best course of action? Extended budget? Extension of the shuttle program? Early end to ISS support? Complete revision of NASA's plans? Currently, the program seems to be on shaky legs. What is most...

    Nylan is going to Mexico!

    So...after much anticipation and years of waiting, I have finally been called to serve as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. This essentially means that I will be sending the next two years sharing my faith with the world, in hopes of finding those who would be...

    NyNES: Might of the Pen

    Preface I have decided to create a “NES” entirely based upon something that has been a fundamental part of NESing since the very beginning: collaborative storytelling. However, rather than just creating a world where people control countries without much in the way of rules, I have decided to...

    Suggest Board Games

    I'm not sure if this is exactly the right place for this thread, but it's worth a shot :dunno: I am a bit of a board/card game fanatic, and have been burning through games very quickly. I'm looking for new games, preferably those with deep strategy and replay value. Suggest games you've...

    Colemak

    So recently I've contemplated switching from the QWERTY keyboard layout to Colemak. My biggest reason for considering the switch is that I need an ergonomic layout to minimize CTS, and Colemak claims to help with this. However, I need to be able to type quickly for my university courses...

    Saga - by Silverlode Interactive

    Anyone heard of it? It's an MMORTS with a persistant game universe (peasants keep working while you're offline, etc.) where you build up your kingdom, complete quests, and participate in PvP battles. It's also free to download, relying on a "card system" for income, as people buy booster packs...

    "Joe American" Challenges Candidates

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPch2k63uj4 This was e-mailed to me a few days ago. A guy calling himself "Joe American" has posted a video where he talks to the presidential candidates about things he feels they are ignoring and claims to speak for the "silent majority". A lot of people...

    SimCiv

    I don't know that this has been asked before, but if so I apologize for the repetition. When playing strategy games, I frequently enjoy setting up multiplayer battles where there is no human player, but rather I get to watch the computers battle it out. I like watching these simulations and...

    Groundhog Debate

    Call me blind, but I don't see a thread on the debate and I find that odd. McCain is getting thrashed by Romney, the proctors, and the crowd tonight over his accusations of a Romney withdrawal timetable. Bad move IMHO.

    Liberal Arts vs Traditional College Experience

    In your opinion, what is better: a small liberal arts college, or a large stadium-classes, mainstream university? Why? Things to consider: -renown -personal attention -cost -community -diversity -quality of education -etc.

    Harry Potter and the Deathly Lawsuit

    So apparently this is a few months old, but I think the discussion is still valid. For the longest time, Harry Potter has been churning out piles and piles of steamy spinoff-works, ranging from Malfoy-love-fests and Harry-Hermoine shippers to Christian analogies and philosophical/political...

    Arabs say all presidental candidates are pro-Israel

    http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/71B0C3D9-B04C-4717-88D8-33FBE1F1533A.htm As questionable a source as Al Jazeera is, this is something I hadn't noticed. Are all the candidates pro-Israel? Also, how does this affect the Middle East's views on the election? Are they resigned to...

    Quickstar

    Has anyone here dabbled in the Quickstar business? A friend of mine has tried to get me to join, but I immediately thought it was a pyramid scheme. A quick search online tells me I'm right, but I am curious. Also, what is Amway and how/why was it shut down? EDIT: linky...

    Home Studio Production

    So I'm currently in the process of shopping around for a decent home recording studio setup so that I can record my own material, and with so many options, I am at a bit of a loss. I'm currently running Audacity as well as a number of trackers (MODPlug as well as the trial versions of Renoise...

    Tell GCA how you really feel!

    What should be our diplomatic response to GCA in regards to war? This is their message: The candidates are: #1 Classical Hero: Dear Catcherites, What treaty did we ever have with you? I do not know of any treaty. The matter of this is that only three out of the seven teams have to advance...
