Do you think video, especially PC game producers have lost touch?

If you see or have experienced older PC/video games which were addictive then like me you may be sick of the eye candy and lack of playability in modern games.

Where´s a newer up to date version of Road Rash, Dungeon Keeper, Descent, Harrier attack etc...??

I've been meaning to write a story, involving two sixteen year old boys. No romance or anything like that, and one of them needs to go through a lot of pain and come out on top... any ideas?

I would like to have regular teIephone conversations for me to learn and improve my German. I would be willing to pay modest amount for this, as I am learning and wouldn't expect anyone to do this for free......I am aware that speaking to a language learner is sometimes tedious for the fluent person! Thanks, Danny

What are the federal tax implications if parents sell their house to their children at fair
market value, taking back a life estate which ,of course, lasts until the last parent dies?
What is the tax basis of the children in the home? It obviously includes the fair market
purchase price. But how is the life estate handled? It is obvious that a purchase in fee
simple should be worth more than a home encumbered by two life estates of the parents.
So should fair market value at time of purchase be valued by taking into account the life
expectancy of the parents discounted by a reasonable interest rate?
If this is done you might have a situation where the regular fair market purchase value
might be $300,000 if there is no life remanderman . Assume the value of the
remanderman is $100,000. Therefore the adjusted fair market value would be only
$200,000. What is the tax basis for the children when the last parent dies? It obviously
includes the purchase price of $ 200,000. But what about the $100,000 (life estate)
remainderman encumbrance which disappears at death when the children acquire full
title. If the parents lived 2/3 of there joint expected remaining lives -- (say they lived
out 12 of the expected 18 years). Can one argue that the children tax basis is $200,000
plus $33,000 by using the fair market value remaining at time of death?
If the children did not buy the house but inherited it, their basis would be $300,000.
But if they bought it for $200,000 most people would say that their basis is $200,000.
However, that would ignore the value of the remanderman which obviously had a value
which had a life of its own. A life estate or remanderman means that the parents can
live in the home for the rest of their lives without paying rent.

My sister and I both have children. I had my kids first, and shortly after she had a daughter. My 5 year old is a really bright child and gets a lot of praise from the family because of it. My sister now picks on her and always tells her (unreasonably) to be quiet and to stop doing different things. She constantly talks about herself and her 17 month old daughter and is always trying to "prove" that her baby is "smarter" than my children. I try to ignore it, but I end up snapping at her because I feel she is singling out my daughter. It's as if no one else matters except her and her family when she's around. When I tried to talk with her about it, she became angry and said "Fine, I won't say anything the next time one of your kids tries to run out the front door!". I am at the end of my rope! My parents refuse to see that it could be anyone's fault but mine (I'm always the scape goat). HELP!

I have a college professor that I am very attracted too. I know you are not supposed to date your professor especially since I will be taking one of his other classes next semester but I'm so attracted to him that sometimes I flirt with him. I don't think he's interested because I'm his student but he sometimes flirts back. Is this wrong? Could I ever possibly go out with him or is it just attraction?

And don't we ALL do it? Isn't it just a silly mind game we play?
Making a BIG DEAL out of other peoples faults, so we don't have
to take an honest look at our own?
And isn't it contrary? Because trying to put the attention on OTHERS, by talking about them, only GETS the attention on US?

If everything happens for a reason, and nothing is random, and God has his hands in everything, then shouldn't you be rejoicing that his will has, (once again, as with everything that happens,) been done?

In a related issue, regarding another way to look at it; It looks like even God is sick of Bush's modern day crusades, and placed some of his own checks in place for Bush's balances. Be happy that his will is finally in favor of displacing the regime that has been in power for over a decade.
