Longer school days wont fix the problem. IMO we need some fundamental changes. Kids need to start getting interested in school and start to bringing home the learning experience (other than HW). Kids need to supplement their at school learning with time spent at home with educational tools...

Go look up Lupe Fiasco. Hes a breath of fresh air in rap. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ge4BEdyZ8bM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1v7cZE1IA-Q

First about the actual content. While I have heard about sexism quite a bit as a topic, the equality of objectifying both sexes is a side I don't often see. We often forget that women play video games for the same reasons men do. To escape. And to give them the option of looking at half...

I would love to comment but I don't think you have been clear enough on what you mean by "liberal arts". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_arts What I think you are saying and what WIKI says are at odds with each other.

Hmmm... Decently put argument... Somewhat interesting and novel orator... I am intrigued to see more of what this series and what Jim can offer.

Two of my favorites that have treated me well in life. It is better to keep one's mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open it and resolve all doubt. -Abraham Lincoln The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool. -William Shakespeare Also I think...

If you love video games, the last 20 years has been a real joy ride for video game enthusiasts. However I wanted to take a moment to ponder what the distant future has in store for video gamers. Taking a look at how ARGs or Alternate Reality Games are taking shape today, we can speculate how...

LOL yeah the learning curve is retarded I wont lie. It took me a good few months to get comfortable with the game. I have been playing it for a year now and I still have not done everything i can in the game. I suggest going into the game with an attitude that failure is fun and hilarious...

Never give beggars any money. Most of them are scam artists and the rest you just perpetuate their problem. Sad thing is you can make a decent yearly wage by begging in the states and all off the generosity of ignorant people. Instead if you want to help the homeless give to soup kitchens...

There is so much that can be said on this topic. But I think this is definitely not the place to waste ones breath on the issue because it would be preaching to the choir. I myself side very heavily on the side of the video game companies (Big surprise right?). Although one thing I would love...

I am no PC buff, I know enough to make my own PC. But this is something that always bugged me. It always seems like the Hardware is amazing but somehow or someway the software is always a problem. I always had a huge gripe with how Nvidia drivers would always give me issues, and in some cases...

O wow... I usually ignore "the big picture" but the bait was just too good to be left alone. Man I sure wish I just stayed away. Why do you even have a show like this bob? Anyone off the street could make better intellectual arguments than you. You contradict yourself left and right all...

I scored 90%, with 9 of 10 correct on The Escapist's Videogame Cliches. Take this quiz [/quizzes/view/140-Videogame-Cliches] Yeah not so much about cliches as it is general knowledge

Hey guys. You know they are already WAYYYY Ahead of you. Have none of you heard of the lasers being tested to be mounted on navy ships? You know the ones that can burn through 20 feet of steel per second? (...
