Writing a book
Has anyone here written a book? Once I finish another project I am working on, I am mulling over writing a biography of a secondary figure from the early American Republic. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with publishing a manuscript before.

The death of one of the greatest boxers who ever lived, and a huge part of the sports and cultural scene of the 1970s...may the epic Ali/Fraizer fights live on forever, and Joe be forever Smokin' Hot. RIP

Rule question! Retreat edition!
Just looking for a quick reminder (I'm still working the rust out of my long absence). If Austria's Vienna Army supports its Army in Bohemia to Tyrolia and Italy moves its Tyrolia army to Bohemia, can an Austrian Army dislodged from Silesia retreat to Bohemia?

I thought I would help out, add scores and do my turn this week (a bit early)

If i have missed anyone out - apologies-oh and i wont say there are lots of "blow outs" as everytime someone says that on here, something weird happens like the Rams beating the Saints!

A couple of questions about American courts.
In the UK, when a jury has a verdict the judge asks them what the verdict is and they say it out loud. In the 'States, once a jury reaches a verdict, they write it down on a piece of paper and hand it to the judge, He or she reads it and then hands it back and someone in the jury reads it out.

Why do they hand it to the judge first? What does this achieve?

The Biggest Threat To Liberty is _____ (?)
I say a Lack of Education:
It was with more education we got out of the Stone Ages and into the Greco-Roman era...and then when education made a comeback, we had the Renaissance...and then the Englightenment...and then Civil Rights/Suffrage movements...cured diseases, more production...but currently my home state is 48th in education and the West is most of my doctors ARE from India...what's your take? Biggest threat is...what?

System 32 is just a symptom of the real problem, take your hard drive out and run a magnet along it, that should really fix it.

I'm really tempted to put a link here that crashes your computer with a few thousand cases of Microsoft outlook opening but I'm thinking some idiots might actually click it.
spyman (424 D(G))

I am confused now. I tried running a magnet along my hard-drive, but when I look at the September list and the October list my Ghost Rating is still exactly the same 175.6, and yet finished a game on October 30 where I shared in a draw and my Ghost Rating is unchanged. I have however apparently risen four places in the ranking. Do I need a stronger magnet, or is there an issue with the October list? Or would a game finished October 30 not be included for October?
You need to reinstall Windows 95.

Oh, just open this link and it will answer all your questions (though it may cause a crash, don't worry it's just a side effect, all questions are answered here)! http://tiny.cc/ibJUN

It's okay jmo. I had just started working on something (I am at work), but i didn't lose much. Serves me right for reading the forum when I should creating value for my clients.
Abe the link results in MS Outlook trying compose emails (hundreds of them). If I recall correct you don't use MS thus nothing happened for you. The only way to stop was to reset my computer.

you can also try opening a command prompt and typing taskkill /F /IM OUTL*

I clicked it from a live boot of Linux Mint (nothing to lose) it's not Windows or MS Outlook specific, my not having set up Thunderbird saved me.

Is an ad blocker considered a necessary defense against attacks? I always though it was just a nice addon, but not vital, and with a few drawbacks. I might have to install one.

Probably not new game play idea, maybe for tourneys
Is there a tourney here that we could do a Triple vs Triple deal with a rogue Italy? I think if we have enough players that would be a fun thing to do. I think best would be 7 players or 49. Could be fun. Let me know if anyone is interested or has a way to make it a better idea.
