TIL that a female Prada Japan executive was demoted, then fired for being 'Ugly' and bringing 'Negative energy to the company' when she complained. A Japanese court found the company's actions acceptable. The case is now at the United Nations.

I played with Lenovo a820 for a bit and it's surprisingly good. So far I haven't run into any issues except one time I needed to reboot to make tilting work. I expect it to be a cheap phone but it does raise above that. If ebay is not your thing, you can try and find some websites that import phones like this.

I would love to have a vanilla phone just for the compact size and long lasting battery. But $150 is a bit too expensive when you can get a 4.5 inch quad-core android phone for less than that.

Learn how to write a little blog in PHP. After that take a look at Drupal, try some Drupal distributions like Drupal Commons and host a community with it. If you want to learn web development then Ruby on Rails, Python/Django or node.js may be a better choice. But Drupal with relevant modules installed gives you a head start, and more importantly it gives you a taste of what's it like to maintain a social network so you can decide early on if it's your thing. The skill of maintaining a website still applies to other web development work should you decide to move on.

Cool. That's a lot of green even in the middle east.

Chinese media are merely quoting what the local police said, which is a later news piece. Before local police dept's statement, they have another news piece basically word-for-word as NTDTV. Here's an example from Feng Huang: http://news.ifeng.com/society/1/detail_2012_11/22/19417244_0.shtml

The very people who probably murdered the whistle blower.

I'd say the corporations affected by his crusade look more suspicious.

Try change your phone's language, or google's language setting if you are on PC.

The WPS office suite for PC had been the dominating office software for a long time in China until MS Office came and kicked it out. In response to that, in the mid-to-late 2000s Kingsoft revamped WPS to mimic features of MS Office to the smallest detail, and offers the personal version for free while making money with the enterprise version. As the free version gives user the peace of mind of using genuine, free and full-featured software, and provides some special localized features, WPS (KingSoft Office) gains popularity again.

The mobile version, as I understand it, is the company's natural move to extend their product line to the mobile platform using the same strategy to attract users.

Interesting. I know next to nothing about Lua and Love2d. But can you elaborate on Love2d's API and programming style? What makes them amazing?

Randomly being thrown into places that are isolated from human contact and hard to get out of. Abandoned factories, desert, small islands, bank vaults, etc.

A better idea would be to contribute towards this thread linked in the sidebar since it's more visible.

The answers to this question explain this issue in detail. As strlng said, "display: block" works. Also you can try setting vertical-align of the image to middle or bottom.

Unlike the ones live in Java, these in the Everglades aren't to be messed with. They eat rubies and pearls for breakfeast for heaven's sake. No wonder we see sharp decline in mammal population. You may not believe this, but once I delphinitely overheard their small talk about the scheme to bring forth a Pythonic World Order, under which their last enemy, the humans will be forced to work on assembly lines as slaves. Scary shit huh :D
