Ok so some people seem to be complaining about the fact that the wii u will be considered last gen once ps4 and xbox 720 comes out. While I understand that Nintendo wanted to innovate and create a cool controller, they did sacrifice system power to where it is slightly more powerful than a ps3. The guy from EA is an idiot and several developers have confirmed the power of the system, but my question is this. In this day and age and with how consoles are made today would it be possible for the Wii U to have a add on that boosts the system power? Nintendo has done this once before with the N64. The N64 had an add on called the expansion pack which helped boost the systems graphical power and processing power. Now would the same concept work for the Wii U , do you guys see this as a possibility to fix the power gap? Nintendo has fixed a power gap before against play station 1 and Dreamcast with the expansion pack , could they do it again? Is it even possible? what are your ideas to legitimately fix the problem?

So I was just wondering if the daughter would be called so and so JR or maybe so and so the second? My wife hates her name but I love her to death and I want to honor her and create a family tradition, however Amanda jr just sounds stupid and silly so whats the proper term if a woman names a girl after herself?

So for those of you that dont know this, the Federal reserve is not in any way shape or form a part of our government , they are in essence a bank, just like chase and etc. We want to talk about the deficit and all this crap, when theres a huge enemy to our finances right here at home. The federal reserve prints money, or at least gives our government the ability to print money, or heck say that there is money available. Believe it or not there is a limit to how much money is available, all of us that work, own businesses and etc draw from a limited pool of money. When more is printed because the money is running low, the value goes down, when the population increases and no money is printed the value goes up. Anyways the federal reserve charges the government interest for every dollar in existence , meaning that every single dollar, every asset has interest on it. Whats ridiculous is that this makes it to where the government will never be able to pay the interest owed because the interest owed can only be paid off by the same money that was given by the federal reserve, and since the federal reserve is responsible for all of the money, its a scandal that is unimaginable. Our government will always and forever be in debt because it is impossible to pay interest to the federal reserve, so all these dollar bills we have are basically promise to pay notes to the federal reserve, what we hold in our hands is the debt the government owes to the federal reserve. So I understand the necessity to get a country up and running by using aid from a bank, but our country is pretty well off so I dont understand why our government continues to allow the federal reserve to screw all of us, if the federal reserve was abolished we wouldnt have a deficit plain and simple our surplus would be huge ,say there is about 15 trillion dollars total that exists in the US, at ten percent interest thats 1.5 trillion dollars a year, whats our deficit? 16 trillion or so, so if we eliminated the federal reserve we would be debt free in about 10 years, so seriously what the hell is going on here?

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. That is the exact wording of the second ammendment , now as follows the definition of militia.

Militia : a body of citizens enrolled for military service, and called out periodically for drill but serving full time only in emergencies. That is the most current definition of the word militia. Are we seeing a problem here? I can easily surmise that 90 percent if not more of the populous is not enrolled for millitary service, nor do they periodically drill. Those shouting and getting mad over the presidents current regulation of guns should understand that from what I have stated above, most of us do not meet the qualifications to demand the right to own a gun. Yet here we are, many are seemingly uneducated and do not atempt to define the meaning of the words in the second amendment. While you could say that the younger people of this nation are registered for selective service, the older population is not, so therefore they are exempt from the constitutional right. So i would like to know why the NRA is twisting the amendment and causing fear amongst people. In my honest opinion I feel that the NRA gets a cut from the gun manufacturers because with fear sales skyrocket. This year alone the sales of guns has rose almost 300 percent. This seems to happen periodically throughout the years, where a scare happens and gun sales increase dramatically. There were a few shootings where i live that were barely mentioned on the local news, yet it seems that every few years or so a big story comes out about shootings and gun sales rise. I feel this is just one giant scandal that takes advantage of the fearful and sorry to say stupid. I feel i have a valid argument over the wording and definitions of said wording in the constitution.

I am not sure what to believe, there are multiple theories that have strong points .if we evolved from monkeys then why is it that i can go see one in a zoo. If the earth formed at one exact moment in time , then from that time on, we all have had an equal amount of time to evolve. Why are there still monkeys? How exactly can we evolve or gain a sense of self, when monkeys and every other animal in the world do not have a sense of self, so how can we gain something that was never there? This of course is a common question people ask, yet it goes beyond that. Many people who ask this question stop at monkeys, when monkeys came from anphibians and so on and etc. So since there is such a long chain of evolution, and many links of that chain still around today, why have we not seen one single thing evolve? Now what might be said is that it takes millions of years, and thats fine, but once again the earth was formed at one time, thus we all had an equal amount of time to evolve. How exactly can we date each evolution period and put a time on it, we have found only a few skeletons that may have been carbon dated , but there are some speices we have not found that still have a evolutionary time line tied to them. So therefore some of this theory is faith based. We often times read on evolution and defend it when we have never witnessed the event, most of us have never done the research behind any discovery, and yet we critisize religions for faith based practices and beleiving in "facts" that scholors write about in the bible, the koran or whatever book. In my opinion this seems biased, and i feel that next time some one tries to say that someone believes in fairy tales, maybe we should compare the resources we use for evolution to the resources one uses in faith, aka text, word of mouth, and faith. most of us have never experienced anything factual and witnessed anything to make evolution a undisputed fact. so it seems that evolution is just as faith based as religion

There's so much evidence supporting this claim and many amongst myself and online are saying it was rigged, I feel that the NFL cut the power to run more commercials thus making millions more in advertising than they would have letting the game play out. Also it was stated that there was a power outage, so how exactly then were the cameras still going, and the field still completely visible. Also the comeback was highly suspect, it seemed too perfect, as if the nfl was fearing a loss on viewership thus losing advertising dollars, because people would automatically write off the niners and change the channel. I did it, and so did many others. So I have to ask what do you think? Was the superbowl rigged for monetary gain? I don't believe the winner was decided, I believe money was the factor. Your thoughts below.

Ok so im not one of those people who say take all the guns, but im also not one to overlook the harm they can cause in the wrong hands. I see some people say that a gun is a mans right to own, not an americans right but a mans right. Yet some of these same people say that North Korea and other countrys need to be disarmed, why? Is it not the same concept? What makes us special? An american just mowed down 20 kids! Violence is not beyond any man, so why the hypocritcal thoughts? Some say these countrys will hurt the USA by being armed, yet a man can murder some people too, but you are not clamoring for gun control. Im getting carried away, anyways I want your ideas and thoughts on how to prevent children, men and women, soldiers and the like from losing their lives to whack jobs who make you all look bad, and make some look even worse when they damn the government for even thinking gun control at all, when 20 children just lost their lives by a gun. A hammer, bare hands etc would not have been nearly as effective in reaching that death toll. So please I want to hear it from the most hard core gun people , or even from people on the fence. What would you do to save childrens lives, and people in general from gun violence?

Ok so im not trying to be gross or anything even though the topic in itself is an uncomfortable subject to some. I was just thinking about why are we drinking milk from an animal that produces milk intended to grow a calf into a thousand pound cow? Isnt there something wrong here? Also why is it not disgusting to drink milk from a cow but from a human as an adult it is deemed disgusting, inhumane and just plain wrong? I have an adversion in drinking milk from a human ,but im not exactly sure why outside of the fact that it was taught to me that it was untolerable behavior. So im thinking that part of obiesty issues is the fact that once again we are consuming milk coming from an animal whos milk aids in the growth of an animal weighing close to a thousand pounds. Yet drinking milk from our own kind seems to be horrible in every way. Now I know cows milk is much easier to produce than human milk, but believe it or not a man can produce milk, just the same as a woman via stimulation and other methods. Yes the idea of milking men and women seems like absolute craziness, but i cant help but think we are going against nature when we drink milk from a cow, why not drink hippo milk, whales milk , and etc. Forgive my crazy question, but i am trying to understand the thought process that goes into this idea.

Im sorry but with all the **** talk on here about how there was no way Obama could win, after keeping my mouth shut being respectful and trying to be open minded, it feels so good for the patience and persistence to pay off, so Republicans, @#$% you, and go ahead and tell me Ill regret my vote, you said that 4 years ago, you said we would be destroyed, you said you would move to Canada which is idiotic because Canada is way more Liberal and has stronger socialistic ideals than America does. Youve said much, now its time for you to eat some crow!

Not trying to be a jerk, but the thought just came through my mind.At the WWE hall of fame , most wrestlers who die are called by their wrestling names, and the Undertaker has allot of nick names, most of which seem to be condescending to use, or just plain wrong to use when he passes away and they honor him. If they use his real name no one will really know who he is. What do you think would be the most appropriate approach to this event when it does happen?

This is a long read for those who have the time, if not then the base question answered will do, however there may be some value to further reading!It has always been a long fought battle, however one cannot use fact to disprove something fictional. An example would be as follows. Say fact is a pin and fiction is a pin board. The pin board isn't real so facts could never stick to the pin board. Now for Religion mostly some groovy dude shows up and with a flick of the wrist and pow here we are, the dude vanishes and all that's left are people who wrote stories about this dude, just like how Harry potter was written. All history will some day cease to exist, we rely on text and info to tell us what happened in world war 2 , if all the info so happened to vanish, then all we have is word of mouth, faith and belief ww2 happened. There will be people who believe it happened, and people who want that event to be proved, as we stand now we all know the war happened because we rely on info to tell us it did. Religion is the number one cause of violent deaths, it has killed so many people , however one could say that the world faces over population and perhaps the wars was natures way of biologically providing us an ability to believe in something and in turn we control the worlds population by being animalistic and murdering others. I know it's crazy, but its possible because since we are not all knowing no one can be sure of anything, that's why it's called faith. Religion helps people sometimes without violence being involved whatsoever. An Athiest can go to a soup kitchen and get a meal just the same as a catholic, I haven't seen an Athiest soup kitchen, so perhaps in some way religion benefits mankind by compelling people to follow blindly , and in doing so it helps us get by If we need it no matter who we are. Yes I am a Christian but I am no idiot, I have a degree a Athiest may not have, so thus is this Athiest an idiot to me? No we are all equal people, this battle will never be won, Athiest cannot be 100 percent sure as the religious cant be either . Athiest have to their advantage the tangible things within our realm, while the religious have the realm outside of this, what's one trillion , trillion light years away from us? Don't know? Then nothing an Athiest can say can be for certain, neither can a religious person be certain. See the madness now? Lets just be friends! Do you agree that this fight can never be won and we should focus on living in harmony? I would help any one in need, with a flat tire or Their life, I never ask what their faith is before I help, neither do your doctors , teachers, policemen and etc. this is the beauty of human harmony.

Look ive seen it every where, muslim this, bomb that, parking lot this place, kill all of them, deport them, and so on. Read up on Hitler and youll soon see that some of you are acting like a man you all hate. I am not Muslim. I am a baptist and I cant help but notice the intolerance for a people, and a religion to the point their deaths and even extermination is being called for. Yet lets think about the fact that we have several muslim people living right here in the USA if they all were these bad horrible people, then damn near every city in every state would have a "Terrorist Incident". Not all muslims are bad, but you have to admit that youve seen some people say kill em all! Some people will say they dont like us much either, well i havent seen one missle fired, 9/11 was tragic yet it was not every one of the muslims wanting this to happen. Hell there were muslim people on the street running for their lives, lets get this clear not all muslims are bad, stop bei ng such a hitler!

I am doing everything I can to seek ideas and answers. I recently got hired at the post office in Denver , I had worked in the one in my town, but got laid off and recalled to Denver. I've been having difficulties finding work where we live, I am married and my wife is pregnant. I have very little money and can't afford the commute, I was considering sleeping in my car while my wife stays with family. I have no family in Denver and sleeping in my car for 3 weeks seems like my only hope. I've tried Craigslist to explain my situation and see if I can find someone who is willing to let us stay with them on exchange for money when I get paid and house work so far there's been no replys. Any help or ideas would be great, thank you so much.

Seems like we act as if the people running are our family and that any one opposed to another's choice might as well had bent their polotician over a barrel and pulverize their vulnerable rump with their umentionables and drowned a box of new born kittens. Sorry to be graphic but holy crap I don't get it! Heck even I fall victim to a heated discussion every once and a while but we don't even know these guys. Yeah we have a face to associate with our morals and such but we never seem to learn. No politician ever does everything he promises , and we always renew hope with someone new only for the same thing to happen.

As I view statements from people who think a name makes our president a terrorist , down to people opposing Obama care but supporting the ideas in it without fully realizing what is in his plan. Every person I've spoken to I've asked 2 questions based on Obama care. The first one being do you believe a person deserves to die because of pre existing conditions preventing them from life saving procedures a insurance company decides is not worth their money? Most people say no. Now when I ask these people If they are 100 percent against Obama care they say yes. It makes no sense to me. Either people are uneducated or they just hate to hate. I'll admit Obama is not the best president , but he's not the worst. I'm still standing here after so many people have said Obama would end our country, turn it into a socialist nation, and some of them claimed to be packing their bags to go live in Canada. Those people are rehashing the same message that Obama is going to ruin our nation and etc. our country has been around for a long time 8 years by any man will never destroy what we and our predecessors have built. He's made mistakes but he's also made good decisions that have minutely benefited us all. A presidents role is very minor in our lives. I for one see no difference in my own personal life now that Obama is president, and when Bush was president. I wasn't in new York when 9 11 happened and as sorry as I am it happened and as insulted as I am that it was against my country , when I look away from the tv and all the insanity and look next to me and at myself. I'm ok, I am just fine. A lot of us believe that we all can be Arm chair presidents , so be it, but in the end are we really being realistic? Unemployment has taken more of a hit from the Internet than from any president. The Internet has destroyed video rental stores, book stores, retail stores, educational institutes (online instructors have over 200 students at a time compared to 30-50 classroom students. ) phone service. ( ordering online any one? ) closures of movie theaters die to piracy , game studio closures, publishing companies going under. Skilled labor,( why hire someone when you can look up how to do it yourself.) and so much more. This alone the Internet that is has caused the loss of millions of jobs and will continue to do so. How can this be fought against by a president ? It can't. There are so many factors we are not seeing. Obama and Romney are 2 good men, I'll be choosing Obama and I am a solider. I just don't understand the jabs at his middle name, the fact that Romney will blame him for a video that caused some Muslims to get up in arms, and also blamming him for taking no action,and then turning around and saying Obama had nothing to do with Osama s death . Obama played a small role , he didn't fire the gun but he was sitting in that office giving the order his decision effected the outcome. Obama is a good man, he has a family and he is trying. He has proven he is trying as flawed as some of you think he is he's trying . With the way congress and the house Are we really Re just voting for some one who can take it, some one to blame, to hang when things don't go right. Romney has done some bad things to people directly I would be a very Angery person if Bain closed my work place down, even though from a military standpoint that's impossible. However some of you Romney supporters or whoever you claim your support for will not read this, and will go off on either being racist , biased , or just plain cruel. You would call a man who lost his job his home and so much more because of a tough decision Romney made amongst others an idiot, a Ignorant person, or whatever instead of understanding his feelings and understanding that Romney completely failed him and so he will vote for some one who hasn't. If we truly look at our lives the president has little to do with our quality of life and we should stop looking to him or anyone to fix our problems. Want a job? Eat your pride and settle for less and you'll find one, and work your way up. Want a home? Save your money and pay cash for it, a car? Same idea. Some of you people really make me feel horrible that you degrade the president so badly , and belittle me for supporting Obama , well this person was shot and suffers pain every day because I have nerve damage , all for you to be able to practice you right to insult the man who played a part to make sure you wouldn't be hurt for your opinions. Obama and Romney are good men, both would make good presidents I may favor one or the other, but in the end I am. Voting for a man not a machine . God bless the USA , and I hope this can help some of you settle your anger, hate , and jealous ways. All I can ask now is how can you hate Obama so much even still?

I really dont know where else to turn for answers, advice, or just simply insight. My frusration is at its peak and i will try to be as honnest and concise as i can be because i know some people dont like to read a book on a question. Basiclly my wife and i sepperated and she was going to file for divorce, she said i was her best friend and she loves me as a friend. But she cant love me as a husband or stay with me. This was 2 months ago, she said i had problems like manipulating and controling her and such. Well after a while we began to talk again and then we agreed to give it another shot things were going well we were intimate, and said we loved each other and had allot of fun together. Yesterday we went to the hospital and found out she is pregnant, after that she changed and wanted to end it all said she was very happy about the baby and etc but she doesnt love me and hates me and wanted to know if i was in or out of the childs life, and fhat she was filing for divorce. I had not changed myself by going to therapy getting a job and etc i am currently a college student, but she requested many things for me to change and while the past couple of months were great she hid them from her family not telling them about us at all and was very guilty and remorseful in having to tell them she was pregnant with my child. Its really like she turned herself off, the other day we said we loved each other i held her in my arms both of us crying and happy and now this? I dont want the child to be born into a broken home from the start im so confused, will the child being born change her perspective? If i change go to therapy and get a job and not talk about problems and be positive would that be best ? Or should i push and push the issue of trying to unite for the family. She said she faked the whole love and fun the past two months but i know when shes happy and she was. I just dont know what to do one day was the happiest of my life the next the worst day.

My wife has had chronic pain from having PCOS and other things of that nature, shes had a gall bladder removed and numerous other procedures. Recently she has been going to the hospital allot for chronic pain and vomiting and nausea. We got perscriptions and went to a different walgreens than the one we usually go to, because the one we went to was backed up. Well the man was very rude and said that shes been to the hospital too much and we will no longer honor ER perscriptions, I thought this was bull crap because we have been going through this with our local walgreens but when we went to a different one all of a sudden this happens. I am wondering if this is a per pharmacy situation or if this person was just a jerk didnt feel like tracking our meds and made a big deal out of all this. My wife is seriously ill and we go from practice docs to er docs time to time. Shes been having a bad month lately , so I wanted to know if we could go back to our regular walgreens we usualy go to or if this guy just screwed my wife for all the walgreens in the state.

I started attending college 2 years ago or so, and I was doing well at first, but after a year of attending school, my mother died. I failed all of my classes when this happened and was extremely depressed, I didn't think to withdraw at the time so all 5 Fs were recorded into my record. After that semester had passed, I was arrogant and decided that I couldn't let my mother down so I did not take a semester off. Well apparently that wasn't enough time for me, I became depressed again and lost motivation to complete my classes, along with all the rest of the issues that came from the death of my mother. I have finally accepted her death and moved on, her love will always be with me and it motivates me to do well in school, the problem is I have a total of 9 Fails and I feel that even if I were to complete my degree at that community college it would essentially be nontransferable and worthless. I wanted to become a Doctor , because of the disease my mother had, I really wanted to learn about medicine so that some day I could take care of her and ease the pain of others , and not just allow them to die. However now it seems that medical school will only see the horrible grades I received from the community college and I wont have a shot at all, because in this cruel world it seems like people cant feel and be sad. Any ideas or advice would help, I was thinking of just going straight to a 4 year university. I am on financial aide suspension and because I told them the reason why I failed a second time was because of my mother dying and me not being over it they refused to give it back to me until I pay for 6 credits and do an appeal all over again. I am wondering if this financial aide problem follows me. Any advice would help so much.

I dont know what to do. She is only 23 years old as am I, and she has cancer, and we are uninsured. I called Cancer Treatment Centers of America and they want a $250,000 deposit. It sickens me that I am seeing the sins of life in full focus. That I must pay to see my wife live. That because I am not rich, she doesnt have a chance. A doctor told her she was going to die in 6 months to 2 years, and I am barely able to type this now I am so depressed. She is close to giving up. She has given up on me and our marriage and our children, and I cant blame her. She has no hope and is afraid of hope. Because it seems that money is the only way to get any hope here. I need help I dont know what to do. You may not know me, but know that some ones life will end soon if I dont find an option. I make 2,500 dollars a month and I asked if I could do payments but Cancer Treatment centers of america refused to take payments, just 250,000 deposit. If you have ever seen the movie John Q, thats what I feel my only choice is. I need to get her into the best place possible , I dont want her to die. She is my love, my life and my soul. While she is not the reason I was born, she is the reason I live. She had given me so much, and now I cant give her what she needs the most. I would give my car away, my home , everything and go live with my parents rent free just so that I could give every penny I earn to make her better. Please for the love of God help me.
