    Yeah...no. Once you know how to get the jobs you want, it becomes a cakewalk. Turning Ramza into a Samurai with his guts abilities as a secondary (or a squire with draw out ability if you're scared) and teleport movement ability, I owned the hell out of chapter 3 Wiegraf/pre-Velius fight. He was lvl 26. That was my second time playing the game, and it was the most difficult fight that could be beaten without some kind of exploit or praying for luck.

    The game could be half challenging if you did not allow yourself to use abilities that heal or revive, but...not really. Try the patch xD.

    Here is an unofficial version of a personality test I took for work.

    The results from the test I took for work said I'm a "Persuader" which I have to agree with for the most part, though I might have changed a little since I last took it. I took the unofficial test and results were different each time I took it (first, hella dominance, then results looked like promoter which is just persuader with less dominance [which is consistent with me]...), probably 'cuz I started having expectations D:.

    Here's the general comparative gist of the different personality types.

    You guys should take it! You can see what pattern fits your results best by looking at the patterns from the second link.

    You are responsive to challenges in a practical, realistic and enthusiastic manner. You are a fact orientated person capable of providing help based on solid information.
    You are assertive, self-sufficient and individualistic
    People are likely to perceive you as being rational and creative at the same time.


    The general summary there is rather accurate. I don't know how to get the whole breakdown from the other two links though.

    I tried to take the test but some of the answers seem unrelated or contradictory, and others are 50/50 for me. Not sure it will be accurate at all.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    I just felt this was such a little gem I had to share it. This was emailed to the support account on Mangatraders (note for completeness that Mangatraders has had an online viewer for a few months now in addition to the traditional ddl support we've had for years.

    a zip software program to unzip the file. That is
    too complicated.
    I have Windows 7, so why are people still
    downloading and uploading things in zip files?

    A response would be appreciated. Thank you.
    Also in response to personality test, I don't put much stock in them. I've noticed that there are usually multiple 'personality types' that seem to fit any given person reasonably well which makes the whole notion of having a single type describe a person seem rather forced. It reminds me of horoscopes or blood typing in that that doesn't really seem to serve a purpose beyond giving people something they can compare and contrast with their friends to make themselves feel like they understand themselves.

    You enjoy interacting with and helping people. You are open to new ideas and procedures.
    Although you are calm and controlled you still project enthusiasm and optimism.
    Your natural supportive, listening and empathetic behavior makes you a good coach. Someone people turn to when they need help or advice.

    You have a strong inner motivation to influence people and circumstances. You thrive on competitive situations and challenging assignments.
    The stresses and pressures of everyday work and life are unlikely to reduce your effectiveness and enthusiasm.
    Not sure if i agree with the results. Maybe in a sense that stress doesn't really make me unmotivated, it just puts me on edge.

    You are tenacious and determined to follow a course of action - to achieve objectives.
    You are a clear thinker. You have an inner need to be objective and analytical. You like to pursue a definite course of action. You respond to logic rather than emotion.
    You are likely to be particularly good at handling challenging technical assignments.

    That would be accurate, should I have enough energy to cope with my personality...

    Not much luck, fortunately in my opinion, trying to get that legalized elsewhere in the Western world, but you never know with Australia; after all, they did make women with small breasts illegal. In China this is already business as usual, but traditionally the West hasn't had much interest in copying laws from China, though perhaps that's changing as well with all the citizen spying laws made with the excuse of enforcing copyrights.

    Both a fetus and a newborn certainly are human beings and potential persons, but neither is a ‘person’ in the sense of 'subject of a moral right to life’. We take ‘person’ to mean an individual who is capable of attributing to her own existence some (at least) basic value such that being deprived of this existence represents a loss to her.
    So then here's a question: Lets say someone has a child and decides that he loves it. But then someone sneaks into the neo-natal intensive care unit with the intent of killing the infant, and then kills the infant. Lets then say killer gets caught or confesses. Should he be tried for murder or property damage/destruction?

    well, apparently he's a real person. I thought that he was a conservative puppet trying to make an argument against abortions.

    other works he's done: http://monash.academia.edu/ALBERTOGIUBILINI/Papers
    it's impressive that he got a doctor's degree and published already, he looks my age in his picture.

    anybody willing to read the paper and see if it makes sense?

    sig made by Itachi-y2k5, thanks, dude!
    Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.

    You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
