mulhs82 2 Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I think I might write a letter to my senator.WASHINGTON, Dec 16 (Reuters) - Sen. Hillary Clinton and U.S. Senate colleagues on Friday introduced legislation prohibiting the sale of violent or sexually explicit video games to minors, saying the industry's self-rating system was not being adequately enforced. The proposed measure was the latest development in an increasingly strident battle over the content of video games, which represent a $10 billion industry in the United States, rivaling the box office revenue of Hollywood movies. Some states have already passed laws regulating the sales, although the video game industry has won some early court battles against them. At a news conference on Capitol Hill, New York Democrat Clinton said legal restraints should be imposed to keep inappropriate video games from children, in the same way laws protect children from tobacco, alcohol and pornography. In some video games, characters routinely spray each other with machine gun fire, drive over pedestrians and kill police officers, Clinton said, saying it is all too easy for minors to buy such games. "These video games are stealing the innocence of our children," said Clinton. "Our bill puts teeth into the standards set by the industry." Clinton introduced the bill along with Democratic senators Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut and Evan Bayh of Indiana. They did not discuss prospects for advancing the legislation, but said they expected to attract some Republican co-sponsors. The bill would prohibit any business from selling or renting a video game rated "Mature," "Adults-Only," or "Ratings Pending" to anyone younger than 17. Violation would be a federal misdemeanor. On-site managers of stores that made the prohibited sales would be subject to a fine of $1,000 or 100 hours of community service for the first offense; and $5,000 or 500 hours of community service for each subsequent offense. Video game ratings are set by the Entertainment Software Ratings Board, an independent nonprofit group established in 1994 by the Entertainment Software Association. The president of that association, Douglas Lowenstein, said the proposed measure was unconstitutional and infringed on the industry's creative rights. "We place our trust in parents, not Congress, to decide what's right for their families," he said in a statement. But Lieberman said he was confident the law was constitutional, because it did not impinge on freedom of expression, only restricted sales to minors. There has been no ruling on the matter from the U.S. Supreme Court, he noted. "Courts in America have not been hesitant to uphold laws that limit children's access to pornography. It's very ironic that courts have now struck down attempts to limit children's access to violent materials," Lieberman said.

Rybo 0 Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Hi ArmyI did my normal Friday routine and headed out to the casino to play some 1/2 NL. I bought in and grinded away for 4 hours, ended up losing my first buying and was up about 50 on my second buy in when the following hand happened.I am late position, and had a suited connector when a fairly tight player raised UTG to 7 dollars. I decided to lay down my hand, but he got 5 callers. Flop came AQQ with two hearts. A loose player who called from the SB fires 5 into the pot, the BB calls and UTG raiser looks down and says "you have a queen?" as he calls the 5 dollar raise. The turn brings the 9 of hearts, and the loose players bets out 10, and the BB raises him to 30. UTG thinks for a minute and raises him. Loose player folds and BB goes all in, and is immedietly called by UTG. BB flips over pocket 9's, UTG flips over pocket aces. I looked at the dealer and immedietly said, peel the 9 for us. He looked at me funny for a second, then realised if he did, we would hit the bad beat. The dealer says "lets hope for a 9" and sure enough, he peeled off the case 9 on the river.Our table erupted as everyone realises what just happened. This was the second biggest bad beat the casino has had, 70k+. My table share was 2325.00. After I tipped the dealer, and goofed off with my second buy in, I left up over 2 grand for the day. That makes today my most profitable day there ever. I'm off to go celebrate!Nice little Christmas bonus. Congrats man Link to post Share on other sites

digitalmonkey 929 Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Canon A520 Digital CameraComments? good? bad?keep in mind i'm just a general user when it comes to cameras.Wish I could help you out. I've looked at various digital cameras, but am holding out for the SLR Digitals to come down in price. Those are the cameras I've mostly been looking at. Outdoor scenic pictures just don't do well on most digital cameras, imo. I want the flexibility to change lenses and take the pictures I want to, not the ones the camera lets me.From reviews, it sounds like a nice "novice" level digital camera. Should work well for general picture taking.I have a Sony DSC-H1 and it is awesome! Link to post Share on other sites
