    LOST: The Incident

    No, that guy doesn't have a name currently. The name just seems fitting given the similarity in storylines. AJ (Anti-Jacob) would work too.

    LOST: The Incident

    Also, you guys are focusing on the entirely wrong pressing question raised by the finale. If the group in '77 somehow survive the blast like everyone survived the explosion of the Swan in 2004, who gets Kate? :jimlad:

    LOST: The Incident

    My guess is that the people that are coming for Locke/Anti-Jacob (maybe we should just call him Esau) are the Ajira crew once they'd figured out what was going on. That makes more sense in context than aliens, although that would be fitting for the show. Great episode. Really wish they had a...

    Siding Questions

    My parents house got redone with Hardiplank last summer. It turned out really nice and I would definitely recommend it from an aesthetics standpoint. They had it done by a contractor, so I can't comment on the installation, but I do know that you can get it prepainted. It's going to cost a...

    Two questions

    I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that water would be freezing where we currently sit.

    New e-mail scam alert

    I read a study a few months ago of a team at a university that used a spambot of some sort to send out an e-mail to a few million people a day about a product that required a monetary buy-in. Increadibly, they got a few responses (and payments) back each day. Lesson of the day: when you cast...

    LOST: Follow the Leader

    I was telling my roommate last night that I needed a good WTF moment. I got it :yes:

    LOST: The Variable

    One thing I'm afraid of is that some things like this were just put in to give us hints about what's going on, or in this case, Widmore's connections to the island. I'm not going to be surprised if they never reference this particular scene again.

    ISU student H1N1 confirmed?

    And in the US the current mortality rate is 0.4%. (2/403 CDC confirmed cases, LINK). One of those cases was a kid from Mexico City that came to the US and died the next day, the other is someone with a chronic illness. It has the POTENTIAL to be bad, but it hasn't proven to be.

    New Swine Flu Outbreak in Mexico

    And there's the problem: it started off in a major population center with international flights to about everywhere... we're screwed. :eek: Actually not. I read an article earlier saying that over the counter remedies are effective treatments for this particular strain if caught early. No...

    Computer Help!

    All of the programs you listed as installing will be running at startup. You're trying to cram a lot of applications through a relatively slow processor (as all netbooks have more or less the same slow Atom processor). As mentioned, uninstall McAfee first and then see where things stand...

    VEISHEA Concerts - What Did You Think?

    Oh come on know, he's obviously right! His well argued opinion of why his taste in music can be better than everyone else's is rock-solid. It's not like music is, um, subjective or anything... :jimlad: I thought Trapt put on a pretty good show, but I liked Red better. Both were great...

    VEISHEA Concerts - What Did You Think?

    I'm pretty sure there were a few other events that were supposed to be out there, but got moved into the MU for the rain that thankfully never really showed up. The juggler was entertaining.
