Most people looking at custom PCs know more than you think when they go scrounging around on craigslist or ebay.
The ones that don't know go directly to a retailer like ibuypower or alienware or bestbuy.

If I had money to invest and lived in an area where people actually have disposable income then sure, I'd at least try it, but I have a feeling the people looking for a $1000-$1200 computer would know enough about computers to know you're making that big of a profit.
Have you ever sold anything on Craigslist? Most of the people you meet come up short a few bucks because they know you won't bother looking for someone else if you made the trip. People on Craigslist are cheap. Notoriously cheap.

Seems like ebay might be the better way. Look at the ridiculously overpriced rigs people put on there. Some of them do get marked as sold.

I would love to do this. I doubt you could make enough to make it worthwhile, but it would still be fun.

I've definitely been there, where somebody agrees to meet you somewhere and then brings less money than they said they would under the assumption that you'll just accept it. I also sold off one of my old computers on Craigslist and had like 12 people send me nasty letters saying I was overpricing it and that I was a rip-off even though if you priced out all the parts individually they were actually a fair bit more expensive than what I was charging for the finished product. I actually took the time to reply to one of them before I was like, what the hell am I doing wasting my time with these idiots?

"True or False: I (your computer guy) can build a computer cheaper than you can buy one from a major manufacturer!
Really? How many custom built computers does your computer guy build a year? 10? 100? 1000? Is your computer guy suggesting that they have some secret In with computer component manufacturers that they can secure these parts at great cost savings? Does it make sense that a computer guy building a few hundred (if that) computers a year can get a better deal on parts than a company like HP or Dell? If thats true, why are there not more stores just specializing in custom built computers? A good business person needs to make a profit with their business. In order to do so they have to charge more than they pay for the products they sell. To make a reasonable profit they either have to sell a large volume of computers making a few bucks each, or a small number of computers making many more bucks each."

A lot of people do this, but they don't use websites like ebay and Craigslist. They tend to sell their stuff through forums.

Woah, so Alienware is a better deal than custom built after all.

A team's first-round pick either needs to be a game-changer or someone who will be a Pro Bowl-caliber player for more than 1,000 snaps every year. The Atlanta Falcons should find that with the No. 6 overall pick in the 2014 draft.
However, if they can't get any of the top five talents on the offensive line like Greg Robinson or a pass-rusher in Jadeveon Clowney or Khalil Mack, then they need to bring in someone who will start and give them 1,000-plus snaps worth of solid, NFL-caliber play as a rookie.
So how does it change the draft if the Falcons took a safety instead of a lineman with their first pick? How exactly will they be able to fill all of their depth needs?

(DALLAS, TX) -- The dynamic duo of Tony Batman and his showgirl partner, Schevelle found themselves facing the cameras of MSNBC on October 27, 2009, as Dallas strip club owner, Dawn Rizos placed her American Solutions for Winning the Future refund check into doing good for animals in a Texas animal shelter.
Roving reporter for the Rachel Maddow Show on MSNBC, Kent Jones arrived at the Lodge with many questions for Rizos. Before the adult entrepreneur sat down to answer his questions about how the Lodge had come into the nomination process for the ''Entrepreneur of the Year'' award, sponsored by the conservative group headed by former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich, Rizos arranged for Batman and Schevelle to guide him through the inner workings of the club.
Schevelle reminisces, ''Dawn introduced Tony and me to Kent, and we showed him the trophy room where the Lodge displays their awards and the VIP areas of the club, as well as introducing him to some of the house dancers. Then I sat down to dinner with Kent, as he sampled the award winning lobster and Angus steak dinner, that has made the Lodge famous in Dallas. Kent asked us a lot of questions, and was very polite to me.''
However, Batman reports much less enthusiasm on the part of Jones and MSNBCs line producers in attendance during the taping of the segment, regarding his ties to the adult entertainment industry. ''I was talking to Kent about my long association with both the Gentlemens clubs across the Us and my involvement with the adult film industry, and he started to become very uncomfortable at the mention of adult films. He told me that he didnt want porn to become part of his report. It never ceases to amaze me that talking about strip clubs is okay in most peoples versions of Polite conversation, but mention the adult entertainment industry and all of a sudden it turns into an uncomfortable silence. That double standard needs to end. I know in my heart that Schevelle would have had at least half of the 30 odd minutes of interview she taped with Kent Jones end up on air, if he hadnt learned that I have ties to the adult industry and that Schevelle is interested in doing some web cam and video work in the future. Even though Schevelle did get some screen time on the show, it was of her sitting with Kent at dinner, and none of the actual interview he did with her.''
Schevelle finds good in the whole situation however, ''I think that Dawn Rizos made a very good decision. I am so proud of her and I enjoyed being part of her announcement that she is using the money Gingrichs group tried to bilk her out of for a good cause. She is taking that $5000 she was going to pay American Solutions for a fake award, and is putting it into funding an animal shelter. That money will help innocent victims of misguided public hatred and scorn; namely abused and abandoned pit bulls and other animals deemed as too dangerous or undesirable to place into regular pet adoption programs. Someday, even people like Newt Gingrich, and people that think like him, will realize that all living things should be treated with compassion and dignity and given help and comfort when they are in need. To me and Tony, Dawn is much more of an upstanding human being for realizing that and acting on it, than for any bogus award she might have been offered a chance at buying.''
Schevelle and Batman are still touring the Us, performing stage shows at Gentlemens Clubs. They will be appearing at various adult nightclubs in Nevada and California during the month of November.

JERUSALEM, Israel -- A nuclear-armed Iran is an existential threat not only to Israel but also to the world, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared Wednesday night during opening ceremonies at Jerusalem's Yad VaShem Holocaust Museum.
"On this day, when our entire nation gathers together to remember the horrors of the Holocaust and the six million Jews who were murdered, we must fulfill our most sacred obligation. "This obligation is not merely an obligation to remember the past," he said.
With the Jewish state again facing calls for its annihilation, it's critical to apply lessons learned from the Nazi genocide.
"Today, the regime in Iran openly calls and determinedly works for our destruction. And it is feverishly working to develop atomic weapons to achieve that goal," Netanyahu said.
Click here to read the full speech.
While it's the duty of the whole world to prevent Iran from developing nuclear arms capabilities, it is by far and away Israel's duty, he said, promising never to shy away from speaking the truth "no matter how uncomfortable it may seem to some."
"I will continue to speak the truth to the world, but first and foremost I must speak it to my own people. I know that my people are strong enough to hear the truth," he said. "The truth is that a nuclear-armed Iran is an existential threat of the State of Israel. "The truth is that a nuclear-armed Iran is a political threat to other countries throughout the region and a grave threat to the world peace. "The truth is that Iran must be stopped from obtaining nuclear weapons," Netanyahu said.
"The nation of Israel lives and the Eternal One of Israel does not lie," the prime minister concluded.

We spent 3 nights in Oct. 2010 at Hank's. He was a great host! He sat down with us when we got in late at night and spent time with us to go over directions to the subway, grocery store, etc. His house is very spacious, so it's a much better place for a group to stay than in a small apartment in Manhattan. The subway's only 5 minutes away and it's about a 20 minute ride to Penn Station, so not bad at all. Also, his house was very clean and the beds were really comfy. On the day we were leaving, he let us leave our luggage at his house so that we could go see a show in Manhattan, which helped us out a great deal. The only down sides were that the immediate neighborhood doesn't have much in it to do, from what we could see, but we were busy all weekend with other plans, so it didn't really matter to us and everything is very close by. Also, Hank's kitchen isn't finished. There's a microwave, toaster oven, and kind of "hot plate"/stove thing. It was fine for our needs and the grocery store is very close, but if you want to really cook a lot or bake anything, there's no stove or oven right now. In all, Hank was a great host and his house was extremely spacious (esp for NYC) and clean. We would recommend it to a group of people who didn't mind taking the train a little bit to Manhattan, wanted more space, and didn't necessarily want to only hang out near the house in Brooklyn. Thanks, Hank! -Mandy Chicago, IL
Great Time in Brooklyn, New York. Hank has been very comprehensive (we showed up at least 1 hour late for check-in) available and extraordinarly helpful when we had small children issues. The appartment is reasonably well situated (10 min walk from the Northstrand A-express subway station), and in a friendly neighborhood. The apartment in itself,very spacious, although uncompletely finished is a piece of African art with lots of superb african statues and figures and a constant obsession for a "perfect" interior architecture. The main bathroom is worth the checking out eventhough finding the hot water is a bit tricky in the middle of all those knobs... The downside? No downsides at all if you're single or couples without children, except you're not in the center of Manhattan. What can be improved? The kitchen side that would need a dining table (unless you prefer eating on the floor or on a couch or only plan eating in restaurants) with chairs. Also, when you are with children, the esthetic side makes things much less functionnal, but with 3 young kids we managed it without breaking anything, except a bowl...and that was me....
The pictures do not do this place justice! Hank's pad is truly gorgeous and inspiring. We arrived on a soggy afternoon and when we checked in to Hank's pad, all we wanted to do was to coop ourselves up in this beautiful apartment and keep ourselves warm, leaving reluctantly only when it was time to grab dinner. The place is stunningly amazing, and oh, did I mention the rainforest shower and the deep bathtub? Yup, you heard that right. This place is better than a suite in Manhattan, and more. Lastly, Hank was incredibly helpful and an all-round nice guy. Make this pad your base in Brooklyn/Manhattan - you will definitely love it!
Had a great time at Hank's pad! There was 4 of us staying over 3 nights in September (2 couples from Canada, all in our late 20s) and there would have plenty of room for another couple if need be. Hank was very helpful with suggestions for our visit (it was our first time in NYC) and the pizza place he recommended, just down the street, was the BEST meal we had all weekend. The interior of the place is even nicer in person than the pics show, although he still has some work to do on the exterior of the house, but I thought the beautiful brownstones all up and down the street make up for it. We spend most of our time in Manhattan, but loved staying in Brooklyn - great atmosphere and feel to it. We were a 3 minute walk to the subway and made good use of the free parking just outside the building (we drove to NYC and left our car parked for the weekend). Would certainly recommend Hank's place to other travelers like ourselves, although there were a lot of open stairs and breakable items around, so maybe not the best bet for young children or those who have difficulty with stairs. All in all a great experience - thanks Hank!
I had the pleasure of staying at Hanks place last month for 4 nights and had a great time. I couldn't ask for a better host, Hank was easy to communicate with from beginning to end. I had a few travel delays checking in and checking out and Hank was understanding. The place was what i expected plus more, my friends and i felt like we were at home. Its also conveniently located between 2 subway lines and a bus, so traveling back and forth was easy. My only compliant is that i don't own this beautiful place, looking forward to staying here again. Thanks again Hank. -Joseph
Staying with Hank made our experience of New York infinitely more enjoyable. His house is everything it appears to be in the pictures and that coupled with Hanks helpful attitude around anything we needed makes this house a must stay if you come to the city.
Hank's place is everything he says it is and more. The shower was liking being at a spa and Hank was incredibly helpful. I'm a clean freak and when Hank said no shoes I was a little dubious about the idea of walking around the house barefoot, but Hank's home was as clean as it is beautiful. You cannot go wrong with staying at Hank's place; I know I will be back soon.
I got to NYC early and check in was not till 3pm, but Hank was so cool he let me drop off my bags and sat down with me, gave me a nice cold glass of juice and told me about the area. I then went to lunch at a restaurant 4 or 5 blocks away, really good Thai food! When I returned I got settled in and awaited the rest of my team, the place is amazing! A total of 7 of us stayed and Hank was amazing to bring a really nice air mattress for the 7th person, even though there was enough beds for all of us he wanted us to be comfortable. There are 3 washrooms; one in the master bed, the hot water was endless as 7 of us took showers in the morning each day. The main washroom shower that falls from the ceiling was the highlight of this place. Everyone was in it for a good 20 min each! Great patio off the living room where we spent a ton of time having drinks and eating in the sun with some music playing (Hank was again amazing and gave us some speakers to hook up our Ipod) The neighbors are great, everyone in Brooklyn was so nice every were I went people said hello, good morning ect... Not use to this as I live in Toronto downtown where no one even looks at you lol.... We were close to the train and able to travel to all our destinations very easy, Hank helped us with allot of this! The Fulton Mall is great cheep shopping VIM Sneaker store close by for amazing shoe deals. The only somewhat of a downfall to the place which will be upgraded soon is the kitchen. There is a grill, microwave and stove top, but no kitchen sink; we just used the washroom that is pretty much in the kitchen so it was fine. If you plan to come down and cook a ton I suggest not, a bit of a pain to cook on small pans and wash dishes. But you're in NYC anyway who eat in right! tons of great food places in the area to get cheep amazing food! I will be back to NYC and always stay with Hank! He is a great host and has an amazing place! Can't wait to see the rest of the place when it is fully finished. (Hank is an amazing architect and is working on the other units in the building along with the back yard! Crash at the architect pad is the best choice I have ever made for accommodations in NYC! BIG THANKS TO HANK! Jaime Wilson

The space is actually comfortable for six people, it's sophisticated and very relaxing. Hank was pleasant and greeted me when I arrived. The bathroom is seriously ridiculous and that alone is reason enough to stay here. The pics are definitely not deceiving. I will be back
Great spot! Close to everything Brooklyn! Plus, the architect guy is a wealth of information about what's really going on in the neighborhood. I strongly recommend your stay. In fact, I'm sure I'll be back.

Amazon Kindle-Gate: Purchased copies of Orwell's Animal Farm and 1984 disappear
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Handhelds, Wireless / WiFi
I have no idea what to even say about this, other than that we are severely, severely disappointed with Amazon and how they are allowing their publishers to treat Kindle users. In a nuthsell, Kindle users who purchased George Orwell's 1984 and/or Animal Farm found yesterday that those two titles had mysteriously disappeared from their Kindles, and that they were credited $.99 for each purchase. Why? That's because the publisher decided that they no longer wanted to sell the books on the Kindle Store. Now, that's all fine, but did they really have to take it away from those who had already made the purchase?
The Kindle edition books Animal Farm by George Orwell. Published by MobileReference (mobi) & Nineteen Eighty-Four (1984) by George Orwell. Published by MobileReference (mobi) were removed from the Kindle store and are no longer available for purchase. When this occured, your purchases were automatically refunded. You can still locate the books in the Kindle store, but each has a status of not yet available. Although a rarity, publishers can decide to pull their content from the Kindle store.

Amazon drops price of Kindle 2 by 16% to $299
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Handhelds, Hot Deals
Amazon has dropped the price of the Kindle 2 e-book reader, as it is now available for $299. That equates to a price cut of $60 off of it's original $359 price tag that it's been selling at since it debuted five months ago.With Amazon's entry level Kindle now being priced under $300, expect to see higher adoption rate, which is obviously Amazons goal with this move.
You can purchase a Kindle 2 for $299, effective immediately.

eReader Lowers Prices
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Corporate News, Misc. Tech
Fictionwise, in an effort to compete with Amazon, has lowered its pricing in its company eReader. While Kindle customers pay $9.95 for newly released books, Fictionwise, now owned by Barnes & Noble, promises no e-book priced over $12.95, all new and New York Times best sellers will be $9.95 or less and buyers will get a 15% reward on all purchases. Now if they could find a way to incorporate "book smell" we might consider the expense.

Kindle Encourages Bloggers to Join Subscription Service
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Internet, Misc. Tech
Amazon has unveiled its new beta program that will pay bloggers for turning them into Kindle subscriptions. Although it already offers many of them, the company wants to move the content to the home screen. Subscriptions will run from $.99 to $2.00 per month. Bloggers don't pay any fees, but Amazon sets the price as well as keeping 70% of the price. Still, if you want new readers and pocket change, this might be an option for your blog.

Braille E-Book
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Design, Misc. Tech
With all the hoopla over the new Kindle DX, we think it is nice that someone has come up with a Braille E-Book. Translation of a 500 page book can double the thickness of the tome, so designers Seon-Keun Park, Byung-Min Woo, Sun-Hye Woo and Jin-Sun Park use EAP technology to change the surface pattern via electromagnetic signals. This is still a prototype but maybe Amazon can make it its next hot product.

Amazon announces Kindle DX: $489, 9.7-inch screen
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Design, Handhelds
This morning, Amazon announced the Kindle DX, which will now sell alongside the Kindle 2. What's so DX-y about the new device? Well for starters, the new Kindle DX features a 9.7-inch screen that sports the ability to rotate to landscape display, as well as a built-in PDF reader (the Kindle 2 requires conversion), and much more storage space at 3.3GB. That means that this Kindle can hold a good 3,500 books, compared to the Kindle 2's 1,500. And truly, everything is bigger with the Kindle DX, including the price. The Kindle DX will launch this summer at $489, a full $130 more than a Kindle 2, which is already a pricey device in its own right, at $359.
If you do live in an area where you can't get at-home delivery of the New York Times, Boston Globe, or Washington Post, then you can get a Kindle DX at a subsidized price—but only people who meet that rule are eligible. Kind of silly if you ask us. You can pre-order the Kindle DX now.

Hearst to Launch Newspaper e-Reader
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Corporate News, Misc. Tech
Publisher Hearst Corp. is intending to come out with an electronic reader for magazines and newspapers. While media group chief Kenneth Bronfin wouldn't give out many details, he says that it is because of an investment that the company made with E Ink, the company that supplies Amazon's Kindle and Sony's Reader electronic ink technology. Hearst will sell the e-readers to publishers and receive a portion of the revenue. Look for the new device, which should be about the size of a standard sheet of paper, later this year.

Amazon releases Kindle for iPhone
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Books, New Apps, Free Apps
We knew that Amazon was planning on bringing their Kindle e-books to other devices, but we didn't think it would happen this soon. This evening, Kindle for iPhone was released on the App Store, available for free. In a nutshell, you are able to associate your iPhone or iPod touch with your Amazon account, and can then buy Kindle book content and have it sent to your phone for reading. Kindle for iPhone is also compatible with the Whispersync service, which allows you to continue reading any Kindle content from where you left off, no matter which device you are reading on. That means you can start reading on your iPhone, stop, then power on your Kindle and continue from the same page you left off on. Very nice.
If you are a Kindle or Kindle 2 owner, and you've purchased books for those devices, when you download Kindle for iPhone you'll have an Archived Items category that will list all your purchased books, which you can access immediately. In using the app, we found that it works extremely well—not as well as a Kindle, mind you, but as an extra way to read the e-books (or as a way to save yourself the $359 Kindle price tag,) the app shines. Go ahead and hit the App Store to grab Kindle for iPhone.

Amazon gives in: Text-to-Speech now decided by book publisher
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Corporate News, Handhelds, Portable Audio / Video
The text-to-speech feature of the Kindle 2 in one of the main features that Amazon was touting when they debuted their latest e-book reader. However, Roy Blount, Jr., president of the Author's Guild, made it immediately known that the Guild objects to the feature that he believes undermines the market for professional e-book. While this is overly cautious, since the Kindle sounds nothing like a real human being, Amazon has decided to step up (or back down?) and allow book publishers and authors the right to allow their works to be compatible with the text-to-speech feature or not. We are hoping that most will see that it's harmless, and just allows folks to enjoy their work in a different way, albeit on the same device. You can read Amazon's full statement after the jump.
You can pick up the Kindle 2 at Amazon, be sure to check out our Kindle 2 review.

Skip to comments.Fossils Bridge Gap in African Mammal Evolution
Posted on 12/03/2003 4:53:26 PM PST by Pharmboy
LONDON (Reuters) - Fossils discovered in Ethiopia's highlands are a missing piece in the puzzle of how African mammals evolved, a team of international scientists said on Wednesday.
Little is known about what happened to mammals between 24 million to 32 million years ago, when Africa and Arabia were still joined together in a single continent.
But the remains of ancestors of modern-day elephants and other animals, unearthed by the team of U.S. and Ethiopian scientists 27 million years on, provide some answers.
"We show that some of these very primitive forms continue to live through the missing years, and then during that period as well, some new forms evolved -- these would be the ancestors of modern elephants," said Dr John Kappelman, who headed the team.
The find included several types of proboscideans, distant relatives of elephants, and fossils from the arsinoithere, a rhinoceros-like creature that had two huge bony horns on its snout and was about 7 feet high at the shoulder.
"It continues to amaze me that we don't have more from this interval of time. We are talking about an enormous continent," said Kappelman, who is based at the University of Texas at Austin.
Scientists had thought arsinoithere had disappeared much earlier but the discovery showed it managed to survive through the missing years. The fossils from the new species found in Ethiopia are the largest, and at 27 million years old, the youngest discovered so far.
"If this animal was still alive today it would be the central attraction at the zoo," Tab Rasmussen, a paleontologist at Washington University in St Louis, Missouri who worked on the project, said in a statement.
Many of the major fossil finds in Ethiopia are from the Rift Valley. But Kappelman and colleagues in the United States and at Ethiopia's National Science Foundation (news - web sites) and Addis Ababa University concentrated on a different area in the northwestern part of the country.
Using high-resolution satellite images to scour a remote area where others had not looked before, his team found the remains in sedimentary rocks about 6,600 feet above sea level.
And may I say in kind, being an evolutionist means "one who continuosly evolves theory under the broad label 'evolution' to fit the latest contradictory evidence." I know, I know, thats science. But just don't pretend you're on "holy ground" with your theory of the day!
You will see the same arguments used. They MUST believe in it, or their world-view will collapse.
Once again, I do believe that God created life, and science is the exploration of how it was done. I have never understood the reasons for this debate.
lol, yeah, right. Ol' Henry, you've been baiting "creationists" with your "evolutionist" links over the past year(s?) with hundreds of posts, don't pretend you just stumbled in here with some insightful new "revelation." As a self professed logical scientific type, you sure do take the theory with extreme religous zealotry;)
What Universe do you live in?
The Universe that I live in, is almost nothing but H2 (Hydrogen) with some other atoms and molecules derived from those Hydrogen atoms due to nuclear reactions.
NH3, CH3 and H2 are the most common molecules in the Universe that I live in.
I give up, what are you talking about?
No, you came from dust and to dust you shall return. Star Dust.
All the material in your body, heavier than Hydrogen and Helium, was created in hearts of ancient stars which novaed, later to coalesce into other star(s) which also eventually novaed, the dust of which finally formed our star, Sol and its family of planets and YOU.
This isn't some silly superstition, it is fact. You are free, of course, to ignore the obvious.
Yeah, I'm a tragic example of Evos Gone Wild!.
Naturalist dogma is that things should be taken straightforwardly to be what the physical evidence says they are. Against that, a certain kind of theist--I wouldn't swear how typical of theists overall this kind is--says that if God didn't leave the right kind of evidence trail, we have to lie for Him.
Out for the night.
For our Creationists friends, here is an outstanding website for Color spectra of elements undergoing electrical discharge excitation.
Using this knowledge, you can study objects in space by simply observing the light that they emit. Simple concept, but that is what Science is all about.
I believe that God created life and the Universe. But if I actually followed the "evidence" the the Creationists provide to demonstrate their side of the debate, I would be forced into only one conclusion:
There is no Universe or God!
That is a false argument, so I must question their intentions.
False: The Miller experiment was to demonstrate that basic hydrocarbons will combine to form Amino acids. That molecular chemistry was and is a fact.
Distortions of the basic experiment are for political or religious reasons.
It was fun tonight.
Watch Dzhobansky and Haladane chug a six-pack-each!-on Miami Beach! Thrill as E.O. Wilson burys Lewonotin in the sand, and covers him with fire ants! And you'll be utterly AGAPE when you see the Leakey girls at Mardi Gras!
As you stated: 1. Most now do not believe that ancient atmosphere was a predominantly reducing environment (as required by the experiment).
2. The energy requirement for the experiment is tremendous. It is unlikely that early Earth lightning storms would have produced enough energy to generate the vast amounts of organic molecules.
3. Recently, meteorites have been found to contain amino acids. It is unlikely that these compounds were created by the method that Miller proposed.
Item 1:
Even I have the equipment (telescope and spectrometer) at home to study the atmospheres of Jupiter and Saturn. I can identify the major "reducing environment" currently present in the atmosphere of those planets.
Who told you that the Earth did not also have such an environment when it first formed? If not, then why not?
Item 2:
This same experiment has been conducted using the low intensity light, cold temperatures and known gasses present on the planet Mars. Once again, amino acids were produced.
Even in the icy world of Neptune, complex hydrocarbons and amino acids have been found.
Who told you that this molecular reaction of hydrocarbons requires such high energy?
Item 3: Meteorites have been found to contain amino acids. If anything, this confirms how common this chemical reaction is.
Once again, I must seriously question the motives of people who have been telling you this stuff.
And has essentially nothing to do w/ evolution - evolutionary biology deals with what came after. Nor is it part of current scientific thinking.
That's the thing about science, and I think it's what worries a lot people of faith - there are no hard-and-fast absolutes in science. Religious faith is the polar opposite, by necessity.
This should give some clues, about all those missing "links",
Yes it does, but hardly in the way that you imply. The Oligocene period was a poor time for the fossilization of any kind of creatures in Africa, not just mammals. Successful fossilization and subsequent modern fossil discovery and recovery rely on a number of climactic, ecological, and geological conditions being met, and Oligocene Africa was not a good time for fossil formation.
Nonetheless, although fossil formation from this time was poor, it still occurred when local conditions were suitable, and (as in the above article) African fossils from the Oligocene *are* still found, just at a frustratingly low rate compared to eras or regions where fossils were more readily formed. What makes this historical accident rather annoying is that this was a time of significant developments in mammalian evolution.
Much of the evolutionary picture of that era has been filled by lucky finds of significant fossils among the sparse fossil record, but mapping out the complete picture will require decades of further fossil collection as the "lucky" fossils trickle in, compared to other regions/eras where fossilization was much more common and the larger pool of fossils to discover has already resulted in a very nearly complete picture of the local biological history.
but oh well, guess they will have wait til they meet up with old Darwin to find the answers.
You have a vivid imagination.
A "lot" of them? If you can name more than *two* from the entire history of paleontology, I'll be impressed. Constrast that to the literally multiple *thousands* of legitimate transitional fossils which have been found.
But creationists don't like talking about *those*, do they? Instead they just try to give the false and misleading impression that "many, perhaps all" transitional fossils are in some way suspect. You know, by darkly "supposing" about whether the countless examples of fossil evidence might just "years later" be found to be fraudulant like "a lot of others" (number unspecified).
Last time I checked, two or so does count as "a lot". But then I've come to realize that creationists often have a different grasp of number and proportion from the rest of us.
It lists *one* (Archaeoraptor). And before someone makes the common creationist implication that this was somehow a hoax promulgated by dishonest evolutionists, it was instead concocted by a Chinese peasant fossil gatherer who knew that "complete" fossils were worth more money when sold than partial fossils. So he joined two separate fossils as if they were two parts of a single broken slab and sold it to the next collector who came along.
Through a comedy of errors, including miscommunications and a deadline rush, National Geographic ended up touting it as a newly discovered transitional fossil in one of their issues, *before* it had been properly examined and verified. Significantly, two science journals rejected articles about the fossil specimen because there had not been time to independently verify it, and they were not willing to just take National Geographic's word for it.
Within *days* of National Geographic's issue hitting the stands, professionals raised pointed questions about the specimen, and within mere weeks it had been discredited and National Geographic admitted their error.
So far from this being an example of "sloppy or dishonest science", as creationists keep trying to hint that it is, it is instead an excellent example of how careful science is and how quickly it discovers error or dishonesty.
So what else ya got?
I absolutely do not believe my existence is pure accident and that I came from ooze.
You are welcome to believe any comforting thing you wish to embrace.
But the moment you misrepresent the reasons that the scientific community has come to certain conclusions to the contrary, expect to be called on it.
Case in point, evolution is hardly a matter of "pure accident". To call it that is to misrepresent it.
Would you prefer that it were? Knowledge is always less than perfect, and thus only a fool claims to have absolute certainties.
Their language always contains "outs" in case of some new discovery.
Yes, exactly. This is a *good* thing, not a bad thing as you seem to be trying to imply.
But unless some contrary evidence eventually arrives to point to some other conclusion, the wise man gives provisional acceptance to what the currently available evidence indicates.
Must have been in "science" class that bjclinton came up with "depends on the meaning of "is" is.
Wow, what a childishly inappropriate and cheap shot.
Then I regret to inform you that you are, as indicated by at least two dozen independent lines of evidence, including for example shared endogenous retroviruses.
In fact, not only are we related to apes in general, we are *still* apes. We're apes of the human variety (just as we are still mammals of the human variety, etc.). There is not a single identifying characteristic of the ape family which humans do not also share.
I'll bet you can't produce a quote from any textbook that makes this argument.
Neither am I.
If you have a gripe, take it someone who is interested.
I took my correction to the person who made the error, and that was yourself.
Why don't you write to the people on the website?
Because they aren't the ones who first claimed that there were "lots" of hoaxes in paleontology, and when asked for more than just Piltdown replied that are "some more" (plural) at that webpage, when in fact there was only a single example.
I was correcting your statement that there were several more examples on that web page. There were not.
I do not believe in evolution and not because I get all warm and fuzzy about God either.
I don't much care what your reasons are either way, but you should expect to be corrected if you make incorrect or misleading statements about things.
You forgot to explain with which particular point(s) and why.
Please point out the place where you believe I was insulting you. Pointing out the ways in which your post was misleading (whether intentionally or unintentionally makes no difference) does not count as insult.
Assuming that people who don't believe in a THEORY are ignorant and unscientific, is getting old.
I'm sure it would be, which is why I don't make such assumptions.
Whenever I conclude that someone is either ignorant or unscientific or both, I do so on an individual basis based on the quality of their statements and arguments.
Pretend I'm from Missouri - show me.
Actually I've found it's a pretty reliable indicator that when they reject THIS theory they usually are ignorant and unscientific.

Gaffigan's stand-up act well-received by Milwaukee crowd
Jim Gaffigan didn't have the fortune of being born here, but the native Hoosier did the next best thing and married someone who was.
Milwaukee is sort of a second home for the New York-based stand-up comic, not simply because of his family connections or because he's played annual year-end shows at the Pabst Theater since 2007. His style of stand-up - clean, soft-spoken, often deadpan, obsessive about food - seems tailor-made for Midwestern sensibilities. »Read Full Article(2)

The wig is achieved by cutting off one's pubic hair and carefully super-gluing it to a sleeping friend's face in a pattern resembling facial hair. The best candidates for the wig are heavy sleepers or passed-out drunkards. Common hair styles include: the "western-stache", the "Hitler", the "Dom Deluise", and the "Norris" After the wig is applied, photographic evidence of the occurance is preferable. Desirable results include: the victim crying upon awakening, the victim not speaking to you for a period of 3-6 months, or a sudden rash around the victims mouth due to pubic lice or crabs. It is also advised to email the pictures to everyone that you know.

Clinical consternation occurs when characteristic vesiculobullous eruptions of incontinentia pigmenti (IP) appear neonatally. These distressing lesions almost never lead to serious long-term morbidity, although they often result in time-consuming, expensive, and typically fruitless diagnostic evaluations in an attempt to diagnose other diseases.
Blindness and psychomotor retardation, on the other hand, constitute the most serious acute and chronic complications of this disease1- 24 (Figure 1). When they occur, they are tragedies for the patients as well as for their families. Ideally, therefore, these complications should be sought assiduously and, if possible, treated quickly, as soon as the diagnosis of IP is established. Because babies obviously cannot complain of reduced vision or of impaired cerebral function, a high index of suspicion by attending clinicians is warranted. Urgent consultations with ophthalmic and neurologic subspecialists (specifically, retinologists and pediatric neurologists) are often needed, both for diagnosis and treatment. Fortunately, not all patients have blinding or retarding symptoms owing to the variable clinical expression of this disease.
A, Infant with incontinentia pigmenti, showing marked pallor of optic nerve head (optic atrophy). There was profound and permanent loss of vision. B, An infant aged 12 days with incontinentia pigmenti and occlusion of central retinal artery, demonstrating macular cherry-red spot (black dot), cotton-wool ischemic infarcts (arrowheads), numerous occluded retinal blood vessels (solid arrow), and zones of nonperfusion (open arrow). Vision was permanently reduced to perception of gross movements. C, An infant aged 20 months with incontinentia pigmenti and extensive zones of retinal nonperfusion (black dots), hard exudates, and a large arteriovenous shunt (arrowhead). There was severe and permanent loss of vision. D, A child aged 27 months with incontinentia pigmenti and inoperable tractional retinal detachment of the macula. There was profound and permanent loss of vision.

### We purchased this HDTV almost 2 months ago, after a lot of research on my part. It came down to the Sony XBR4/XBR5 and the new Samsung 650. But, the picture quality on the Samsung was just too good to pass up. Setting it up was easy, basically the c...omputer inside it did all the work. Luckily, Best Buy was offering a free troubleshooting call because after Dish Network came out and "installed" our new HD/DVR box they didn't hook it up right. The Geek Squad saved the day by setting everything up right! The only thing we are dissatisfied with at this point (and I won't rest until they do) is that there is a problem with the TV shutting off on it's own and I have had a problem with Samsung sending me a flash drive with a firmware update as they promised a few weeks ago. One more thing, Best Buy offered their 30 price guarantee. And, they honored it when the price dropped almost $400 within the 30 days. You can't go wrong with this tv, though, it is awesome!!

Khan To Mayweather: When I Beat Broner, You Fight Me!
By Edward Chaykovsky
British star Amir Khan (28-3, 19KOs) is hoping that a victory over three division world champion Adrien Broner (27-1, 22KOs) will earn him a shot at Floyd Mayweather Jr. (45-0, 26KOs).
Khan was trying to get a shot at Mayweather on May 3rd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, but the pound-for-pound king selected WBA champion Marcos Maidana for the date.
In his last fight, Broner was dropped twice and lost a twelve round decision to Maidana. Khan wants to earn the Mayweather shot by defeating the same man.
Khan took to his Twitter page, asking Mayweather to match him against Broner on the May 3rd undercard.
"Floyd Mayweather, tell Adrien Broner to fight me on your card and when I beat him, you fight me next," Khan wrote.

Attacking the Turtle
I've spent a lot of time working on adjusting my top game from the turtle that I see in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to working on the belly down position that I've been seeing from a lot of judo guys. The tend to belly down more completely, not staying on the knees and looking to sit out into guard. Given my approach to the BJJ turtle, which I'll explain in a second, the problems I have with the more complete belly down presents some problems.
I was working the turtle tonight going over some basic techniques from the top and the bottom with Jeremy Adkins tonight, and this is a position I'm really familiar with, and since Jeremy was just teaching the basics, I was pretty familiar with it. Though, as always, he game me some details to keep me occupied.
As I was working with the BJJ guys, I remembered the way I attack the turtle, which has a lot of freestyle wrestling influence. As is typical with the BJJ turtle attack, I drive my hips against the lombard of my opponent. Unlike the typical attack, I try to be much trickier with my hands. I don't commit to gripping the lapel and attacking the back position, not because it's not priority #1 (it has to be, from the turtle) but because that's the attack people anticipate and, against competitive opponents, they usually have a tool in the bag to deal with it.
Instead, I work either underhooking the lapels (with a transition to be more behind the opponent, as opposed to on the side, so they can't roll me) or I start attacking the ankles and (especially in gi) the back of the knee and the thigh.
Attacking these areas allows me to anticipate the rolling attempts to get back to guard which are typical of the turtle position. When an opponent rolls, if I have control of an ankle, i can make sure to stretch that leg out to make for a much easier pass. If I'm holding the back of the knee, it becomes very easy to kill the legs and establish side control.
Now, the problem is that the judo defense for the turtle isn't really a defense for the turtle, at least not from what I've seen in competition and training. It's really just an attempt to stall me out, especially once they work out that I'm very technical and tricky in my newaza.
They don't stay up on the knees and look to roll back to a guard position. Often they try and roll for a pin, if they stay up there, which (apart from being a terrible idea, as it gives me a ton of opportunities to attack the armbar and the clock choke) doesn't happen very often because at the point where they're turtling, they're not going to bother to attempt something tricky. Instead, they extend the legs out, which makes them very tough to attack, keeping their focus on protecting the arms and the neck.
Frankly, I started off getting incredibly frustrated with this position, because I felt like I didn't have any strong attacks from that position. I found myself grinding my opponents face alot, and I found myself driving my knees into my opponents backs and ribs. Not a terrible idea, generally, but still not really effective.
After a while, I decided that when the went for this defense, the best idea was to go back to the conventional attack, which is to hook the lapel under the arm, or to control the arm if possible, and look for the choke, or to roll the opponent onto their back. In terms of judo scoring, the latter is the best option. Anyway, I've been working on a few ways of getting my opponent to his back from that belly down position. I have stuff I'm working on, including an adapted version of the Karelin lift that is pretty effective against training partners my size, bit I'll probably wait until fall to get back into that, as nobody at Rocha BJJ is that intimidated by my attack from the turtle, or at least nobody thinks they're going to get out of it by bellying down.
Anyway, I killed in drilling that position tonight. I was (as is not terribly unusual) the smallest guy in the class by 20+ pounds, but I was also the second most experienced, and managed to get everyone's back multiple times, and come up in side control plenty on the top, and get back to full guard, half guard and even slip past the deep half guard (a la Jeff Glover) to take the back on some of my opponents.
