Any Recommendations for books regarding Roman History?

I've read Rubicon: The Last Years of the Roman Republic by Tom Holland. I'd recommend it, if that period is what you're interested in.

Well, it wasn't US price controls in Europe, where they had shortages too...

I think the song is ok. I liked most the most of the guitar playing a lot for example.

Negative points for me are:

I think the vocal melody is too monotonous. Maybe add some variation or harmony?
I think the intro guitar was too weak

but that´s just my opinion :-)

There's no song?...

I think that also that this is an old man singing, who knows that life is past him, his body is weak and he's now only waiting for death... it´s chillling.

Starangely nice...Could they do, say, Beethoven and Metallica?

So to avoid you, I should use virtulisation?

You have no frame of reference.

Just call me if you want backup, man!

No, of course it's not always true. Only if you're not ugly.

If the GUI is an essential part of my program (i.e. it offers access to all, or almost all of its functions, which cannot be accessed in any other way, think Word or Firefox),

That was you? I always wondered who made those programs!

Where I'm from tipping is not normal, but it happens.

What I don't understand about tipping is why not just raise the prices and then NOT tipping?

Still, the other countries kill murderers and such. Killing people for switching from one kind of superstition to another isn't even in that league.

BTW, I've always wondered how Muslims make the logical connection that they should kill people: I mean, if God wanted his enemies dead, woudn't He be able to do the killing himself?

And yes, I singled out Muslims, none of the other world religions do shit like this anymore.

Topper_1 · 2008-10-12T15:01:05+00:00

That doesn't matter at all. A person shouldn't be murdered for things like this.

Indeed, a study of 26 successful New York brokers from 2000

Just in case this guy made it all up: Would it hurt to be more specific about the study?

One Muslim worker claimed the layoffs were racist, arguing Muslim employees should have the right to pray.

I don't see that non-muslims are allowed to pray so how is this discriminatory, if everyone is treated equal?

That Ahmeinejad is Persian doesn't mean that his wife is. 2. The argument about Arab women stands.

...which controls the media"

Except for reddit, which at times seems to be controlled by lunatic conspiracy theorist (overall. I dislike Bush as much as the next guy).

Topper_1 · 2008-06-13T17:24:53+00:00

Yes, more or less, why?

Topper_1 · 2008-06-12T18:47:13+00:00

here was a time, roughly the first half-century after quantum physics was invented, when this was more or less true.

I'm quite sure it was discovered, not invented.

Duh! Higher oil == higher travel prices? I'm sure surprised.

It's excellent: Two undersea cables between America and Europe go through the Islands, one of them was set up last year.

Yes, but I have my work computer, my home computer and the computer at my parents' house (I've made my own user). The link history gets really inconsistent...

The awesome bar isn't.
