I agree it's ridiculus. But consider it this way the law protecting children does not distigues between how is commiting the act it only specifies what is unacceptable and a person taking naked photo's of a child is agaist the law as stupid as it may be it is the law it does not matter how the person is related to the child would it be acceptable for a strange to take a naked photo of a child if it was completely innocent, we can't have one rule for one person and one for another. Is it not better to remove a child not at risk than to leave one that is. I agree it’s ridiculus.

It's most likley the flash plugin i don't know how well it's designed but it has been around a while now and is on version 10. Time and programing experiance permiting games developers will design games to run at 100% of a computers ability the program will perform all the calculations and rendering it can before it's time to move on to the next task. My guess would be the flash plugins need to be highly versitile there for it becomes extremly hard to optimize. flash is not multi threaded so other games may be using less as they can spread there tasks over both cores where as flash is working on just a single core, not sure how much a flash program can transfer to your GPU so the CPU may have to cope with the graphics as well?

this is back tracking a bit as i've only just stumbled in the door. to answer some earlier remarks that nothing must be something as it has been diffined by the word nothing. lets look at a ball and something next to it which is not a ball. well we used a ball to define what it is it must be a ball. Nothing looks like what ever is directly behind it. because what you see is not nothing it is the object behind which is not obscured from your vision by anything. this is back tracking a bit as i’ve only just stumbled in the door. to answer some earlier remarks that nothing must be something as it has been diffined by the word nothing. lets look at a ball and something next to it which is not a ball. well we used a ball to define what it is it must be a ball.

The issue is that anything not travelling anywhere near this speed will just seem to jump in age from travellers prospective. Bending space would be more usefull as the people that sent you on your mission would still be alive when you got back. I belive in theory at the speed of light time ceases to flow.

Science is not fact only human understanding of our enviroment. All experiments start with assumptions if these assumptions are flawed then so is the data collect therfor the theory developed from that data. it is only when someone with an open mind that is willing to accept that any theory may be wrong no matter how many times that theory may have been shown to be correct that we move forward. Take the atom for example it was widley accepted that all the particals of an atom were in side what we now reffer to as the nucleus. This was considered to be fact. It was then latter discovered that this was not the case. We are limited to what we can observe and can only draw conclusions from these observations. we should always be ready to accept that the world around us may not work the way we belive it to and it is something yet to be observed that is the actual cause.

You seem to of jumped to conclusions by not doing your research. It's a complete waste of time anyway if teenagers are breaking the law they don't need a curfew these inderviduals should be delt with as criminals. What really makes me laugh is the idiots in power don't realize that all these new laws they keep comming up with are already in place. examples 1. They make it illegal for teenagers to hang around and area causing a nusence. Loitering is already illegal. 2. law regarding drunk and disordely. what was the point in this one when it was already illegal to be drunk in public. Why do i pay taxes for some idiot that does not have a clue to come up with existing ideas and then implemnt these ideas which are already in place.

If that theory was correct then using a operating system with a GUI is also for lazy people or even using a word processor instead of a typewriter is lazyness. It's irrelevent what language you use. The cpu can only recieve instructions that appear on it's instruction set. understanding AS2 in full and being able to write more efficent code is more useful than writing a complete mess in AS3.

It's probably a bit more complicated than just taking gun away from americans. It's genrally guns that are in circulation for the sole purpose of shooting another human being that they want to reduce this includes people that would only use one in self defense. In most countries where gunownership is illegal you can obtain a license to own a gun for the puposes you do. It's a hard call to make weighing up peoples freedoms agaisnt the possible saving of lives. I know many people that can safely control a car while over the alchol limit should these people not have the freedom to drive if they want to.

I think it comes down to the indervidual. I'd say as long as both people are comfortable then it's fine i was put off after having a bad experiance at a young age. peer presure is a big problem my addvice to any one in their teens would be to make sure it is there choice and descuss it with their partner and build up to it become comfortable with each other in this kind of situation don't jump straight into full blown intercourse unless both of you feel comfortable. sex is pleasurable and once you reach puberty it's only a matter of time untill you develop natural urges to have sex. It's hard to give addvice for people for thier first time as everyone is different. Some people would be better of just spending time naked together untill it happens naturally were as others would be more comfortable ripping each others clothes off. You just need to be sure if you start to have doubts stop you can always carry on later. If your in a relationship and both of you are pleasuring yourselfs inprivate why should you not consider plesuring each other. I can say from experiance that a bad experiance can set you back years. 11-14 i would say is to young. It would be ideal if the average age was between 16-18 but that said the best age is when your ready. I think it comes down to the indervidual.

Either way your going to see very little diffrence by plaing it in the missile there is no checks carried out if there is no missile fired. it depends on to many factors to give a straight answer as to whats the best way. I think it's just standard to have the projectile do the test. Performance wise i wouldn't bother giving it much thought. focus more on what additions you may add to the game at a latter time how you decide to program at the start may effect what is viable to add later you don't want to completely rewrite code. It's hard to give straight answers becuase slight design changes can mean diffrent code might produce better results. Human productivity is the most important factor when programming intodays world that is why we have all these high level languages. we just design faster computers to deal with the performance hits.

When did you buy your Xbox if it was manufactured in 2006 then M$ know that there was an error with these models and extended the garentee to 3 years. I think it might be stand warrenty now so if you've had the machine less than 3 years they shoud repair it just don't give them a reason to say it's been missused. and if they did say anything about the surge protection which you should not mention unless asked. tell them to point out where it says in the mnual not to use one. obviously read the manual to make sure it doesn't you don't wont to look an idiot when if they say it says so in big red letters on page 13. It's not what most people would consider a hardware overheat it's not a component actually burning out due to excessive heat it's due to poor manufacture and occurs well within the design temperatures for the 360.
