Probably because CCTV surveillance wasn't widespread yet in the UK when The Prisoner first ran.

Then there's "Rover", a bubble like sentry that rises from the ocean and captures those trying to escape.

The high tech infrastructure that's hidden under the guise of a low tech town.

True, the pic does look like that chest hair was added.

Mid's, found here.

Because it's not a cop, lawyer, doctor, spy, mystery hour drama series so that only leaves scifi.

And your hero or villain you log in with can't have originated in Praetoria.

Well the GT 520 isn't all that great but it is in the ballpark with the the DDR2 version of the 8600GT. The HD 5570 is significantly faster.

I also suspect that the power supply in the one with the GT 520 to be on the puny side.

If you include mail-in rebate, there are a few nice cards for under $50.

For example the GT 430 is a nice card. Look for the ones with higher memory clocks.

I saw it in 3D, something I rarely do, due to reviews that said it was the best use of 3D since Avatar. I wasn't disappointed.

Here's a cute rant (warning, spoilers) from EW about how they felt Optimus Prime was played.

'Transformers 3': In which Michael Bay turns Optimus Prime into a sociopathic idiot *********

Well if you think unemployment is bad today...

Also the new launcher only modifies files that need modifying. The old patch program would rewrite even unmodified files which increases the odds of fragmenting. Also very large files like sound.pigg (500MB) could really slow down the patch process on machines with less than 2GB of memory.

I think it's starting to get old. First season was great. Second season they mixed it up a bit to keep it fresh. Third season they gave them a "big bad" to get or else. This season, OK someone may be after them.

Part of me would like to see the team "blackmailed" into pulling cons for some alphabet agency except that gets away from the "Robin Hood" framework the show was built on.

I wouldn't worry. Both coh.com and cityofheroes.com are registered to NCSoft.

Well it is called a "burner".

io9 had an interesting review, first to paragraphs below.

It's the Kat Von D MLP.

I am disappointed over Sister Psyche's "porn face". Come on David, you're better than that.

Did you reinstall XP from scratch or simply move over a drive with XP already installed?

Not really. 2011 is the year it was discovered. The first letter, M, means it was discovered in the second half of June and the second letter, D, means it was the 4th object discovered in that time frame.

It was discovered June 22nd and buzzed the Earth 5 days later. The scary fact is a large number of these near misses (or near hits according to Carlin) are only detected a few days before or after their passing due to their small size.

One other point about Incarnate System and Going Rogue. Right now you need to own GR to access the Incarnate System. After Freedom, I21 drops, and you stop subscribing so instead of VIP you're a Premium account, owning GR doesn't automatically grant you access to the Incarnate System.

There is a big thread about this in the City Life board.

Are you trying to renew from a location far from your CC's billing address? I heard once that part of their risk management is to determine your approximate location via the computer's IP address you are currently at and seeing if that's close to where you should be according to your account info.

Another possibility is that the account management for subscriptions is currently offline and that's simply the only fail message they have.

No idea if you can go through support for this.

and I don't mean inebriated.

A little 5-20 meter asteroid, 2011MD, zipped by yesterday getting within 7,500 miles of the surface. This was far enough down Earth's gravity well to cause it to change course by roughly 290 degrees.

Some clever sole, several actually, have made movies of it's passing. Here's one. This is time compressed from roughly 4 hours to 1 minute. Best if you watch it full screen so you can see the asteroid brighten and dim as it tumbles by.

Dry run of "The Coming Storm"? (to make this story game related)
