I've had this happen to me twice this week. In both situations, there was a disabled vehicle in the road and the line of traffic ahead of me all put on turn signals and started to go around. I followed as such, but both times the guy behind me tried to overtake me and I almost got hit in both situations. The person who just did it to me on my way home tonight even had the gall to blast their horn at me. They pulled into the turn lane at the light and as I drove past, since their windows were rolled down, I screamed at them. Seriously, what did you think? Did you not notice the long line of cars going around the disabled vehicle? Did you think my turn signal was your grand... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Flying Omelette) http://flyingomelettespalace.yuku.com/topic/10137 Fri, 11 May 2012 18:13:55 PST <![CDATA[ Facilitypro's 2012 Movie list ]]> http://flyingomelettespalace.yuku.com/topic/10136/Facilitypro-s-2012-Movie-list

I agree with a few of these, but some of them?  Especially the top two.  I just might have to figure out what my to 10 are and compare it to this one.  How about you guys? ]]> feeds@yuku.com (RedMageSage) http://flyingomelettespalace.yuku.com/topic/10134 Fri, 04 May 2012 21:50:20 PST <![CDATA[ You Tube Video Game Music ]]> http://flyingomelettespalace.yuku.com/topic/10133/You-Tube-Video-Game-Music

ActRaiser - All Over the World - Missing part of the song because it doesn't properly loop. (Back when I originally put the ActRaiser music up for the Rec Room feature, I was on limited bandwidth and cut this short on purpose. Now, I don't have to worry about that so it should be fixed.)

Arc the Lad 4 - The Flying Castle (Upper Floors) & The Flying Castle (Lower Floors) - Sound effects present because songs were ripped directly from the game. I now have sound effect-free versions that need to either replace or accompany these.

Azure Dreams - Tower of Monstrosity Lower Floors (PS1 Version) - No fadeout.

All these graphs are for Single Income, no deductions (other than the standard) (unrealistic at the high incomes, since the rich often pay maybe 10%, but whatever).

This is marginal tax rate as a function of income.



This includes the standard deduction in the rate.  Most places, including Wikipedia, include it in the income, which I think is completely counter-intuitive.  Most people know their income, not their "taxable income after standard deduction".

To rephrase that really simply, the x-axis is just your actual income.  This is the case for all these graphs.

This is the actual tax you pay:

Both feature a "Warlock Lord" as the main villain. Both feature a hero who is the last of a line of kings.

Maybe it's a coincidence, but the book is apparently well-known and may have been a staple of fantasy lovers in the late 70's and 80's.

And the funny thing is, I don't really care. I need an excuse not to get involved with any more future consoles, and that's good enough for me.

Besides, I'll never be able to clear my backlog of everything I own for my older consoles and PC, so, I have nothing to feel bad about.

The one I called Random Battle Theme is actually called Wing of Darkness and the one I called Keith's Battle Theme is actually called Circle of Fate.

Even more interesting is that despite the game having several different composers, these were both done by the same person...an Ayako Toyoda.

Is it at all possible this is the same Ayako Yoda who did the Robotrek soundtrack and her last name was nicked for whatever reason many game developers had nicknames in 8- and 16-bit era credits?

John Mayer does this in every song I've heard from him so far.

Here's another example I talked about earlier.

But these are far from the only examples. The satellite station they use at work is filled with modern pop songs that do this. It's as though recording artists and/or record companies, really, really, really want you to know what these songs are called so that you can more easily remember them to buy them.

2. Holding the note on the last word of every line in the song.

I poked around with the free version, and it seemed like it had a lot of information on my family members. I was pulling up (obscured, of course) records of my grandparents, that ostensibly had information about their parents. So I do a two week free trial, and holy fuck, all the easy stuff from the non-member version went right out the fucking window. I kept getting sent in circles.

Plus, it doesn't actually have all the records that it looked like it had. What's really stupid is if you don't know the name of a relative, it's almost impossible to find it via the site. Well, helloooo! Why would I join a site to find my relatives if the site says you have to have info about them first! And those little green leaf hints from the commercial are useless.
