Of course it's extremely important.
In the US, there are 14,000 {city, county, state and Federal} rights and privileges for being married. These include hospital visitation, survivor benefits from social security, work pensions, and the list goes on and on and on.
Then of course you have the non government rights and privileges. All forms of insurance have lower premiums for married people.
There is also the issue of international laws. These allow immigration and other benefits.
I did the firmware update a few days after I built this system and the burners were working fine for months.
I replaced both burners with Optiarc AD 7200S {Sony - NEC joint venture} burners and I have no problems at all. I haven't done the firmware upgrade yet, but they work like a charm on any disc I throw at them.
I wonder if there is something on The Tudors dvd that might have caused this. Sony got caught putting rootkits on their cds and dvds a few times over the last couple of years. So I wonder if something similar happened here.
It's never truly safe to do torrents anywhere unless everything is legit and multi confirmed as legit. Even on legit sites, people still try to post illegal stuff as a way of entrapping others into illegal downloading.
Even innocent people and machines get accused of piracy. There are plenty of articles of innocent people and machines {ie fax machines and printers} being sued for illegal downloading.
The best thing you can do is be as safe as possible. It's sorta like "safer sex" for torrents.
With the exception of Titan Media, I haven't heard much about the porn industry getting involved in P2P. Anyway, most of the legal troubles directed to people who do direct downloads, such as porn bloggers.

I tried other brands but most felt weird or very gummy. Not to mention I like stuff that's easy to clean up.
I haven't added or removed anything in ages.
Yep, the Skingrad bulter problem.
It can't be fixed on xBox through the console. The makers {Bethesda} say to start over and hope it doesn't happen. The worst part is they reported knowing about the issue back in early 2006 and didn't fix it.
Are there any decent RPG games out for the xBox 360?
I have Oblivion {plus all the add ons} and love it, except for the known bridge bug that lets vital NPCs fall through the bridge so you can't talk to them.
I didn't like Two Worlds as it was extremely buggy and if you killed a quest monster before you got the quest, you were screwed.
Mass Effect is a great action RPG.
For the most part, I hate the Japanese RPGs as they are monotonous. I hate the, take 2 steps fight, take 2 steps fight, take 2 steps fight,….....................................................
What didn't you like about Too Human?
I'm thinking about getting it.
EDIT: Bought the game and you can read my review in the Reviews section.
Outstanding news!!!!!
Now the question is, is he going to do anything about it?
If you could describe the problems you are having, you would probably get more and better advice.
I have 2 Lite On dvd burners that I bought brand new in Apr/May of this year and they work flawlessly until the other day.
I went to rip a retail dvd using FairUse v2.8 {I've done this countless times on this system} and suddenly the dvd drive stopped working and locked up until I did a reboot. The 2nd dvd burner went out on a sympathy strike.
One thing I noticed is that the dvd burners always do a speed test before they do anything. They never did that before this problem started.
Now I'm turning out a large number of coasters to get 1 good burn. The problem is worse with dual layer discs.
I'm using;
Vista Ultimate x64
Lite On LH-20A1L SATA with the latest firmware {BL06}
Nero 8 Ultimate
No virus/trojan was found by my Kaspersky IS v7 {fully updated} or 2 online scans.
As for a disc issue, I tried the batch that worked fine until the problem occurred and I "borrowed" about 20 various discs from work, with the same results.
I've also tried a few other burning programs and none have done any better.
Any ideas?
We don't allow bi torrents here.
Our sister site SexTorrent.ru allows them though.
No one here gave me an honest reply.
I gave you an honest reply. The fact that you don't like what I said does not mean I am a liar or in some other way being dishonest in my reply.
I was simply refering to people blocked from dl and not deleted account (I wonder what is this number).
I have no idea what that number is. Maybe the admin know, but I don't.
I can tell you that we went from a high of almost 93,000 users at the end of June 08 {pre ratinator 2.0} to our current 82,000+ users due to getting rid of cheaters and duplicate accounts.
People who don't dl don't participate in the ul! I bet most of them will not or cannot fix their ratio from what ever reasons.
As I have said in several threads now, most people did nothing in the six months they had before the new ratio requirements went into effect. We gave a 6 month warning of the new rules.
As an example, one member routinely hovered at the .350 ratio all the way until the new requirements came into effect, then bitched like crazy because he could now longer download. He like many said they are here only for the porn and don't have time to read the home page or the forums, so he didn't know about the new rules. He wasn't a one off, as a lot of people did that.
There are a few things that the staff can do to help users, but they have to ask for the help and few actually do ask for it until it's way too late. I am currently helping several members get their ratio up into good standing. NO, it's not some sort of favoritism. I'm doing it because they asked for help and have shown that they are trying. I don't have time to hunt down members and beg them to let me help them.
Just to be clear I'm not against a fair ratio, I don't mind to share and upload and I did so before the new rules and have stayed afer the new rules.
The old ratio was killing the site. We couldn't get torrents to stay alive more than a week or two. That angered many of our power uploaders {not to be confused with power seeders} and several left because they were fed up with their torrents dieing so quick.
When we dropped the ratio requirement for christmas, things got even worse.
Some drastic changes were desperately needed and ratinator 2.0 is the result.
I still don't get this post. Without new registrants and with many users blocked I see nothing but a grim future for GT.
We have the invite system and open registrations on the first of each month. This was in response to all the cheaters and duplicate accounts we were getting even when we had .250 as the required minimum ratio. How sad is that, a lot of people were cheating with the ratio that damned low?!
As for the picture, it doesn't shock me at all. As I said before, no one has a concept of traffic management.
Look at the bottom of the home page.
Torrents 8,418
Seeders 54,532
Leechers 6,553
Peers 61,085 {seeders + leechers}
That means that for every leecher, there are 8.32xxxxx seeders.
You are correct, we did lose about 10,000 users in the last few months. HOWEVER, the vast majority were cheaters and duplicate accounts.
The problem we are facing is that people don't understand the concept of traffic management and can't be bothered to read the information on the site. Only 185 people have read my traffic management guide and several of those were members of staff.
How much speed are you going to get from a user who is running 20 torrents with an upload speed of 60kB?! Well, that averages out to about 3kB for each torrent.
We have also lost several power uploaders because they were upset with the formerly low ratio requirements. There is no reason that a torrent should die in less than a week, especially with hundreds or thousands of downloads. This is especially the case with the non porn torrents, but even the porn torrents are hard hit by it.
Have you set up your computers to have static IP addresses when talking to the router?
If so, most routers allow you to set how much bandwidth each computer can use.
Unfortunately, I can't give you directions because all routers are different and use different terms/names for common things.
To set up static IP addresses for each computer, go to Portforward.com. They list instructions for most routers.
Here is an extremely similar story that takes place a long time after Sodom was supposed to be destroyed;
Judges 19:13-27
He added, "Come, let's try to reach Gibeah or Ramah and spend the night in one of those places." So they went on, and the sun set as they neared Gibeah in Benjamin. There they stopped to spend the night. They went and sat in the city square, but no one took them into his home for the night. That evening an old man from the hill country of Ephraim, who was living in Gibeah (the men of the place were Benjamites), came in from his work in the fields. When he looked and saw the traveler in the city square, the old man asked, "Where are you going? Where did you come from?" He answered, "We are on our way from Bethlehem in Judah to a remote area in the hill country of Ephraim where I live. I have been to Bethlehem in Judah and now I am going to the house of the LORD. No one has taken me into his house. We have both straw and fodder for our donkeys and bread and wine for ourselves your servants– me, your maidservant, and the young man with us. We don't need anything." "You are welcome at my house," the old man said. "Let me supply whatever you need. Only don't spend the night in the square." So he took him into his house and fed his donkeys. After they had washed their feet, they had something to eat and drink.
While they were enjoying themselves, some of the wicked men of the city surrounded the house. Pounding on the door, they shouted to the old man who owned the house, "Bring out the man who came to your house so we can have sex with him." The owner of the house went outside and said to them, "No, my friends, don't be so vile. Since this man is my guest, don't do this disgraceful thing. Look, here is my virgin daughter, and his concubine. I will bring them out to you now, and you can use them and do to them whatever you wish. But to this man, don't do such a disgraceful thing." But the men would not listen to him. So the man took his concubine and sent her outside to them, and they raped her and abused her throughout the night, and at dawn they let her go. At daybreak the woman went back to the house where her master was staying, fell down at the door and lay there until daylight. When her master got up in the morning and opened the door of the house and stepped out to continue on his way, there lay his concubine, fallen in the doorway of the house, with her hands on the threshold.
Again, we don't know if the translation of "to know" is correct here. It's very likely that it actually means "to interrogate" the stranger.
(as opposed to males who must deal with the plateau phase after ejaculation)
Umm, that's called "sleep".
