chinese democracy? seriously?
use your illusion i was the first album i ever purchased.
stoked.
yes:
But let's be honest. Only Rose could have made this album.
At some point in the last 15 years, true rock stars died. Chad Kroeger, Brandon Flowers, Chris Martin, uhh... Fred Durst? Only Kanye West comes close. The myth of rock 'n' roll fandom is that we want our rebellion in perfectly commercial doses: an album every two years, three radio hits, one cellphone/lighter-to-the-sky ballad and a one-year tour with the band showing up at 9 p.m. sharp....
Chinese Democracy is too god-damn necessary. At some point, rockers stopped dreaming of making Led Zeppelin IV or The Replacements' Tim and settled for making generic critic-proof boredom that can be toured on.

spacing = ( ( length / nveh ) / cell );
for i = 1:spacing:numcells
here = round(i);
roadway(here) = 1;
speeds(here) = floor(min(4,length/cell/nveh));

this took me a really long time to figure out..i hope it's right.
qdoublestar:=i->ApproximateInt((ApproximateInt(ApproximateInt(ApproximateInt(damage(peak)*g(peak,mean,SD)*bayes(Qn,mean,SD),
mean=50000..70000,method=simpson,partition=2),SD=1..100000,method=simpson,partition=10),peak=i..1000000,method=simpson,partition=15)+
cost(i))*l(Qn),Qn=60000..1000000,method=simpson,partition=25);
i swear i'm almost done doing this problem set.

in our recent general election, most of the population voted for their party of choice (not because they believed in the party, but) because they felt it was 'time for a change.' this illustrates, quite vividly, the failure of our modern politics.

so i'm coining a term here in my blog which seems to be a popular custom of the time.
localization
the opposite of globalization.
the downscaling of all human activities to a smaller scale.
working, buying stuff, getting entertainment, etc. closer to home.
look out for this, i think it will become increasingly relevant.

THANK YOU CAPTAIN OBVIOUS!

can everyone please take note of this:
"The report is not all doom and gloom. Modelling of future scenarios suggests human societies can ease the strains being put on nature, while continuing to use them to raise living standards. But it requires, says the MA [Millennium Ecosystem Assessment], changes in consumption patterns, better education, new technologies and higher prices for exploiting ecosystems."
