Cut The Rope -- 560 stars gathered and I'm completely stuck on only 1 map...argh. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 16, 09:20 1
- Is envy the right phrase? I never got into Cut the Rope. I just couldn't bring myself to tackle another physics/geometry game. -- nm - Mop (195 lbs) Nov 16, 09:21
I've been on a standards/jazz vocals kick this week. New English office mate probably thinks this is my regular music. - con_carne Nov 16, 09:18
Feel like watching a long video? Rosa is an 9m50s epic sci-fi film that takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where all natural life has disappeared -- (link) - mara Nov 16, 09:16 [vimeo] 2

Starbucks in NYC to close public restrooms.... -- (link) - Remlik Nov 16, 09:13 11
- the comments are funny. yeah. they're closing restrooms to customers. - foolish prophet Nov 16, 09:21
- And this is clearly in response to that guy is taking the self-tour of Starbucks restrooms in NY. Obviously. -- nm - ty97 Nov 16, 09:16
- between this and Borders, that cuts the bathrooms in half. -- nm - loosilu Nov 16, 09:15
- I did not know this NY law: "Any food establishment with more than 19 seats is legally required to provide a public restroom" -- nm - ty97 Nov 16, 09:15 4
  - that's pretty common, isn't it? -- nm - Andie Nov 16, 09:17 3
    - I honestly don't know. I'm so used to seeing "NO PUBLIC RESTROOMS" signs in city cores - ty97 Nov 16, 09:18 2
      - 19 seats is a lot, I think. what a random number, though. -- nm - loosilu Nov 16, 09:19 1
        
        "if you have less than 20 seats..." -- nm - foolish prophet Nov 16, 09:21
- Where will people have sex now? -- nm - Spawn Nov 16, 09:14 2
  - Oops, sorry. - Spawn Nov 16, 09:14 1
    - the library, obvie. -- nm - Andie Nov 16, 09:17

    - Tell you what I can do for you guys... I will average it out. That makes today... November 16th. - Spawn Nov 16, 09:13
SNL is going to have a field day with amedola and with the snow globe thing. did sandusky not think before securing representation?? -- nm - foolish prophet Nov 16, 09:00 15
- Jon Stewart nailed his piece on it last night. -- nm - znufrii Nov 16, 09:07 2
  - yep, brutal. -- nm - loosilu Nov 16, 09:10
  - (also had fun with the Cain/Libya interview) -- nm - znufrii Nov 16, 09:07
- thought - snow globe is an excellent halloween costume. -- nm - Andie Nov 16, 09:05 3
  - wow, this makes me realize I'm really happy this story did not break before Halloween. I could imagine some really wrong Halloween costumes. -- nm - loosilu Nov 16, 09:06 2
    - I can't think of any. What are you thinking? -- nm - amanda, microwave Nov 16, 09:12 1
      - Greyed hair, PSU sweater, a showerhead stuck above you, and a toddler doll placed on your groin. - Will Hunting Nov 16, 09:15
- i missed the 'snow globe' incident apparent, i guess it google-time. -- nm - Andie Nov 16, 09:01 5
  - Transcript of McQueary's 24-second interview - ty97 Nov 16, 09:02
  - Here we go. He gave a 24-second interview to CBS. Transcript here. -- (link) - loosilu Nov 16, 09:02 2
    - And "snow globe" seems like a perfectly reasonable description of his emotions and how he feels. -- nm - Don Homer Nov 16, 09:08 1
      - Pretty to look at and sits on a shelf in between times of being manhandled? - Spawn Nov 16, 09:09
  - it's McQueary. -- nm - loosilu Nov 16, 09:01
- He doesn't appear to have done much good thinking in general. -- nm - ty97 Nov 16, 09:00 1
  - including talking at all. -- (link) - foolish prophet Nov 16, 09:02 [Backboard]

  - how cliche - lets suggest an espresso bean addiction instead. that's new & shiny -- nm - Epiphany Nov 16, 09:12 3
    - Wall St. lawyers on coke. All that's left is for it to be the eighties. :) -- nm - con_carne Nov 16, 09:17 1

- Jackson -- nm - crash davis Nov 16, 08:55 11
  - Seattle is currently ranked the 12th best rushing defense. St. Louis is ranked dead last. Carroll will want Lynch to have a bunch of touches -- nm - crash davis Nov 16, 09:00 10
    - [deleted] 2
      - Lynch is plenty reliable. His production is a function of opposing defense, the O-line and the QB. - crash davis Nov 16, 09:08 1
        
        then again, their starting right guard suffered a season ending injury against the Ravens -- nm - crash davis Nov 16, 09:10
    - I'm becoming more and more convinced that Stephen Jackson may be one of the most over-hyped RBs in a long long time. - Jim Nov 16, 09:01 6
      - I don't see him or the Rams much, so I'll defer to you :) -- nm - crash davis Nov 16, 09:04
      - [deleted] 4
        
        The thing is, he does nothing with those yards. The holes are there and a better back (AP, Arian Foster, etc) would have taken a few to the house. - Jim Nov 16, 09:17 1

- I'm confused on this point -- the owners locked the players out...and then they don't have to pay them - Will Hunting Nov 16, 08:57
- Now we start seeing how dedicated the players are. -- nm - Beaker Nov 16, 08:55
Ooh, my PS3 might be getting back today. Between that and my Kindle Touch tonight could be busy. -- nm - Ender Nov 16, 08:47

ST Info Needed: Is there a US website that lists high school sports scores, stats, profiles etc? and are there privacy issues regarding under 18's?... - Walt_Disney Nov 16, 08:46 6
- MaxPreps.com or HighSchoolSports.net are where I've found my local stats. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 16, 09:10
- Not what you're really looking for, but there are profiles of top football recruits on Rivals.com -- nm - crash davis Nov 16, 08:48 1
  - prospects is a better word than recruits -- nm - crash davis Nov 16, 08:49
- It looks like there are some, just googling high school sports scores -- nm - mara Nov 16, 08:48
- this is espn's site -- (link) - Beaker Nov 16, 08:47
- I'd think most major local papers would have that. -- nm - Ender Nov 16, 08:47
This character recognition thing is amazing. -- (link) - mara Nov 16, 08:44 3
- cool, but I had to try a second time for it to recognise a theta. I guess I made it too round the first time. -- nm - zork Nov 16, 08:54
- (where do you keep finding these things?) Try signing your name...my signature roughly equates to this -- (link) - prayformojo Nov 16, 08:53 [Image] 1
  - I read a lot of blogs. I love Google's RSS feed reader. -- nm - mara Nov 16, 09:05

Truman, can't link to it at work (It was just a pleasent memory), but found it on the Apple Trailers website. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Nov 16, 08:38
On Hawaii 5-0 Monday night, there was a car air freshener used containing the scent of Spam musubi. I thought of a Mets fan that might like that -- nm - crash davis Nov 16, 08:38 4
- I don't know what Loco Moco is ... :) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 16, 08:40 2
  - neither do I -- nm - crash davis Nov 16, 08:45 1
    - i think it's like rice and gravy and hamburger in a big old sloppy pile and apparently it's pretty delicious but i find it hard to believe. -- nm - kare Nov 16, 09:08
- Spam ... by musubi. -- nm - loosilu Nov 16, 08:40
I love my Nook. -- nm - Todd Manning Nov 16, 08:38
Heh. Reach Daily Challenges. - Spawn Nov 16, 08:38 4
- which is why you are the level you are. - Vulgar Professional Nov 16, 09:08
- my daily challenge will be to download the new maps, save to the hard drive, download the bonus stuff, and then restart on Legendary -- nm - crash davis Nov 16, 08:39 2
  - I have 1,001 more DCs than you! -- nm - Spawn Nov 16, 08:41 1
    - heh, I like that # -- nm - crash davis Nov 16, 08:45
~whip my hair back and forth~ -- nm - Beaker Nov 16, 08:38 1
- Now whip it. -- nm - Spawn Nov 16, 08:38
if McQ went to police, there should be a report somehwere, right? -- nm - loosilu Nov 16, 08:37 25
- I really am interested to hear his side someday -- nm - ty97 Nov 16, 08:44 2
  - Snow globe. -- nm - Spawn Nov 16, 08:44 1
    - *light dawns* It's all clear now! -- nm - ty97 Nov 16, 08:45
- not necessarily - especially if the university was trying to keep things hushed up -- nm - decline Nov 16, 08:40 1
  - damn Paterno and his Jedi Mind tricks -- nm - Beaker Nov 16, 08:44
- There SHOULD be - amoxy Nov 16, 08:39
- likely in the same shallow grave as that missing prosecutor -- nm - Beaker Nov 16, 08:38 1
  - you mean "the same eastern european country"? -- nm - foolish prophet Nov 16, 08:41
- Do campus police know how to write? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 16, 08:38 16
  - (let me rephrase, since I've never been on a campus with its own police: Are campus police equal to mall cops?) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 16, 08:39 15
    - they are normal, regular police at PSU. -- nm - Don Homer Nov 16, 08:42
    - it depends on the school. At Pitt they were pretty much just like regular cops. -- nm - decline Nov 16, 08:41
    - it depends on the campus. Generally if there is an actual crime reported, they are required to take it to local police. -- nm - loosilu Nov 16, 08:40 11
      - this isn't so true. like if every assault a campus cop saw was reported to local police, we'd need more police. -- nm - foolish prophet Nov 16, 08:42
      - on a campus as big as PSU, they probably have certain powers (like being able to arrest people). -- nm - loosilu Nov 16, 08:41 9
        
        Here's the state law describing their jurisdiction. -- (link) - loosilu Nov 16, 08:44 5
        
        which says they are pretty much the local police and have all the duties of a local cop -- nm - decline Nov 16, 08:47 4
        
        that's interesting. I wonder why they never bust people when this says that they have to. -- nm - foolish prophet Nov 16, 08:52
        
        are they armed? I can't remember if ours were. -- nm - loosilu Nov 16, 08:48 2
        
        of course. -- nm - Don Homer Nov 16, 08:49 1
        
        I'm digging through their site but can't find their relationship to local law enforcement. - loosilu Nov 16, 08:52
        
        laughing really hard. -- nm - foolish prophet Nov 16, 08:42 2
        
        Stop or I'll blow this whistle! -- nm - Beaker Nov 16, 08:45 1
        
        my favorite is when they pull you over for speeding on campus. it's so hard not to laugh in their faces. -- nm - foolish prophet Nov 16, 08:47
    - No, they are a step or two up. -- nm - Spawn Nov 16, 08:40
