  1. Does anyone know what the name is for the effect where you flick the touchscreen and the screen scrolls ahead and then slowly comes to a stop? iphone/ieverything seems to use it a lot now... I want to search for any hacks that enable a feature like that for synaptics touchpads - they have a "coast" feature which is useful but not as slick as the flick technique. It's hard to search without kowing the "official" name of that UI feature though.
  2. shoulda flagged best of intstead
  3. the attack ads have already started, and mark my words they will heat up on all sides because of a threat of election early next year they are making a mockery of the system. and for the last time, birdy THE COALITION IS NOT UNCONSTITUTIONAL AND IT IS NOT UNDEMOCRATIC! it is exactly how the system is supposed to work.
  4. i cant wait to hear what neil young has to say about this tonight haha
  5. we will be going to the polls in feb pointless
  6. this is fucking bullshit speaking of undemocratic and unconstitutional! what a fucking joke of a PM this coalition needs to get its shit together and lead us out of this mess come january wow. just fucking wow
  7. I think that what is more important than the point that canadians "voted harper in to a minority position" is that the majority of canadians actually voted to keep harper out of power - they voted representatives in who would keep him in check. I think this coalition might be the best way to actually get shit done during this clearly unstable political climate. We need some sort of government over the next couple of years, until the parties are actually ready for another election, which none of them are right now. A harper minority for the next few years seems totally dysfunctional. the conservatices seem to be completely unable to compromise and see past differences in order to get shit done. If they were able to do so, they'd be the ones in a position to secure power via coalition right now. SO who are the ones who can't play nice? the 3 parties willing to grind their teeth and get along in order to get us through this? or the one party who can't compromise enough to get ANY non partisan support? http://neenerneet.net/coalition/

  9. my girlfriend has some what are they called or what are the covers like? i can look at home
  10. no it sounds great. but my speed seems to be unthrottled already i highly recommend everyone who has a router, throw it away, get a linksys wrt-54gL and install tomato asap.
  11. wind turbines may be ugly to some people - but i guess they'd prefer their property backing on to a fucking coal fired plant. wake up you idiots.
  12. microwaves are good for the environment i think, they cook more efficiently than a regular oven. not to say they are good for cuisine...
  13. i have a regular sized microwave that turns dark lightbulbs temporarily into bright ones
  14. i wish they would focus on more important things like the fucking threading system mashing multiple conversations together if they have the same generic subject. morons.
  15. the video looks awesome- though i sadly won't be able to make it to toronto this weekend, i included the fest info in an email i just sent out about weekend festivities to a slew of people in hamilton and toronto. hope this goes well, it looks really great!
  16. Federal elections for the Parliament of Australia were held on Saturday 24 November 2007 after a 6-week campaign' date=' in which 13.6 million Australians were enrolled to vote. All 150 seats in the House of Representatives and 40 seats in the 76-member Senate were contested in the election. The opposition centre-left Australian Labor Party, led by Kevin Rudd and deputy leader Julia Gillard, defeated the incumbent centre-right coalition government, led by Liberal Party leader and Prime Minister John Howard and Nationals leader and Deputy Prime Minister Mark Vaile. The coalition had been in power since the 1996 election.[/quote'] copy and pasting from here doesn't count: http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Australian-federal-election,-2007
  17. ya i know. it just depresses me. edit to add... plus the view from outside canada is probably "why don't they vote" not "their choices were crappy"
  18. American voters turn out in record numbers to bring in a progressive leader, make Canadian voters look like a bunch of backwater hicks who fear change and won't vote
  19. thanks for looking into this for me - i have been thinking about this album for a while now so another few hours, days, weeks is not going to fully kill me. just partially hehe.

  21. I'm wondering if the new odds are worth seeing. I just find a lot of their stuff to be really good - funny, catchy, well written - good combination of traits. my favourite is good weird feeling
