We almost bought one of these when we replaced our old Punto.

Sadly, the 500 isn't made for people 6 feet and over.  We got the Grande Punto instead and have plenty of room.

EDIT: for clarity

I have mixed feelings about Stephen Fry.

I like a lof of his work {he was great in Black Adder}, but I hate that he feels the need to insult the US at every turn to get the British public to like him.

From various other articles about her, it sounds like she may lose her title because she's not fullfilling her contract as Miss California.  The pageant people aren't as much concerned about her anti gay views as they are about her not doing her job as Miss California.

A few years ago I read that there were an estimated 300,000 religious "sightings" each year, around the world.

Many turn out to be complete frauds, such as Asparagus Jesus.

Here's a friend's website and a thread where we talk about some of the Jesus faces;

I don't know about other countries, but in the UK, you can get a cheap OEM version of an operating system by buying it with another computer part; ie a new hard drive.

If you need to upgrade your computer anyway, this helps save a bunch of money on the full cost of the operating system.

As I said in my previous thread about W7, it's a whole lot better than Vista.  M$ should be forced to give Vista users a free upgrade to W7.

The only thing worse in the RC version {7100} over the previous beta version {7057} I was using, is that I can't seem to keep the refresh rate at 75 hertz.  It keeps switching back to 60 hertz.   I'm not sure if this is due to the Nvidia beta driver for my graphics card {supplied through W7's update} or something to do with W7 itself.

EDIT: corrected typo for clarity

Unfortunately, the ratio shown on your personal page isn't always correct.  It only shows the next value you must meet.  Once you reach that value, it shows the next value and so on.

Personally, I'd prefer if it showed the highest value you have to reach for your ratio at the time.

Check your PMs.

A Buddhist preacher in Thailand has announced plans for new guidelines aimed at curbing the flamboyant behaviour of gay and transgender monks.

The "good manners" curriculum - the country's first - is being introduced in the northern province of Chiang Rai.

The senior monk told the BBC he was particularly concerned by effeminate activities among novices such as the wearing of make-up and tight robes.

More than 90% of the Thai population are followers of Buddhism.

The BBC's Jonathan Head in Bangkok says tales of monks behaving badly are nothing new in Thailand.

In recent years, they have been accused of abuses of their exalted position in society that range from amassing dozens of luxury cars, to running fake amulet scams, to violating their vows of celibacy, our correspondent says.

Senior monk Phra Maha Wudhijaya Vajiramedhi told the BBC he would address issues like smoking, drinking alcohol, walking and going to the toilet properly, which are all detailed in the traditional 75 Dharma principles of Buddhism, and the 227 precepts for monks.

He was especially concerned, he said, by the flamboyant behaviour of gay and transgender monks, who can often be seen wearing revealingly tight robes, carrying pink purses and having effeminately-shaped eyebrows.

Thailand has a very large and visible population of transgender men, and Phra Vajiramedhi acknowledged that it was difficult to exclude them from the monkhood but he hoped his course could at least persuade them to curb their more extrovert habits.

If successful, the "good manners" course, at the Novice Demonstration School, would be replicated at other Buddhist monasteries and seminaries, he said.

I work in the oil industry and I seriously doubt that we'll be switching to W7 any time soon.

We switched from 2000 to Vista Ultimate and found that virtually nothing worked, not to mention Vista was slower on the few programs that did work.

Technically, this should have been posted in the "site feature request" thread, located here;

I don't know what to say about that.

For instance a video description suchas "gay latin movie" is not very descriptive.

That sort of naming isn't allowed here and the upload is supposed to be rejected.

That's disgraceful.

There seems to be some debate over whether these men were actually gay or whether being gay was an excuse to kill them, because they disagreed with the ruling part of the tribe.

Either way, it shows how fucked up people can be.

You can find bareback films by clicking the search button.

Find BB films with double penetration would rely on uploaders giving good descriptions.

A Home Office spokesman said: "It is the Government's priority to protect public safety and national security. That is why we are completing the implementation of this directive, which will bring the UK in line with our European counterparts.

The ironic part of that statement is the UK gov fought a lawsuit a couple of years ago trying to force them to make roundabouts safer and get rid of accident black spots.  The gov claimed that they were not responsible for public safety and won the case.

So it all seems like it's all about taking away civil liberties and nothing to do with public safety.

That's my point, Vista was put out with many problems and instead of fixing them, they are making a new OS that fixes them.

My computer has the exact same programs installed with both Vista and W7 {except a few like my anti virus is beta, not retail for W7} and W7 out performs Vista in everything.

In benchmark tests W7 is better, ConvertXtoDVD runs faster, video games run smoother, etc, etc.

It's as if they purposely put out a piece of rubbish so people would switch to the new version to fix the issues with Vista.

Dual boot it between your current operating system and W7.  It's pretty easy to do. Google for more info.

Regardless of what M$ wants everyone to think, there are only 10 registration keys per version {32 bit or 64 bit}, making 20 in total, and everyone who got it legitimately or otherwise uses the same 10 keys per version.

I've been testing Windows 7 beta {dual booting with Vista Ultimate x64} for about a week now and it shows what Vista could have been if Micro$oft wasn't a bunch of greedy twats.

NOTE: I'm using x64 {64 bit}, so if you use x86 {32 bit}, your experience might be different than mine.

While there are some programs that run fine on Vista and don't on W7, 90% of them run fine on W7.

My computer is much, much faster now and I don't have many of the problems I have with Vista.
