Tiny Tower is a business simulation video game developed by NimbleBit for iOS and Android devices. In Tiny Tower, the player manages an expanding tower filled with virtual people, who are referred to as “bitizens”. The tower has multiple types of floors, all of which are randomly generated. The game is customizable, allowing the player to customize their bitizens, repaint new floors, or even evict bitizens. The goal of the game is to build the tallest of towers, which will attract bitizens to move in and work in any floor the player designates. On February 7, 2012, Tiny Tower reached 10 million downloads, so Nimblebit gave all Tiny Tower users 10 free "tower bux".[3] The game received a positive reception, reaching a score of 82/100 on Metacritic, with no negative reviews. In the App Store, Tiny Tower reached 4.5 / 5 stars, based on more than 155 thousand user reviews. Tiny Tower game received a positive reception, reaching a score of 82/100 on Metacritic, with no negative reviews. The game has many aspects, such as active and passive playing and pixel art graphics, making the game successful with recognition that includes iPhone Game of the Week, and was elected by Apple as The Game of the Year for iPhone in 2011. Tiny Tower released on June 23, 2011 for iOS devices and on November 16, 2011 for Android devices.

The scheduler in a Pentium 4 processor is so aggressive that it will send operations for execution without a guarantee that they can be successfully executed. (Among other things, the scheduler assumes all data is in level 1 CPU cache.) The most common reason execution fails is that the requisite data is not available, which itself is most likely due to a cache miss. When this happens, the replay system springs into action. The replay system signals the scheduler to stop, and then repeatedly executes the failed string of dependent operations until they have completed successfully.

he's a "caster", huh? like, with a fishing rod, or does he cast the games with his bare hands?

• The computer game Quake, often focusing on Stef's complete inability to play it
• On-and-off romance between A.J. and Miranda

• Pitr's quest to be an evil genius and take over the world.
• Erwin's transfer between various corporeal machine embodiments for his artificial intelligence.

The language still has active speakers today, and the Internet has sparked a renewal of interest in the language in recent years. A sample of 24 Idists on the Yahoo! group Idolisto during November 2005 showed that 57% had begun their studies of the language during the past three years, 32% from the mid-1990s to 2002, and 8% had known the language from before.[10]

hah, 8% of 24 is two people. well, technically 1.92 people, but maybe one of them is missing a leg or something. what a thriving linguistic community.

One Klingon speaker, d'Armond Speers, raised his son Alec to speak Klingon as a first language, whilst the boy's mother communicated with him in English.[13] Alec rarely responded to his father in Klingon, although when he did his pronunciation was "excellent". After Alec's fifth birthday Speers reported that his son eventually stopped responding to him when spoken to in Klingon as he clearly did not enjoy it, so Speers switched to English.[14][15]

i saw Spamalot on Broadway and it was pretty decent but i couldn't shake the feeling that the entire production was a "wink and a nod hey you remember this joke??" thing. when the audience is laughing because they know their favorite scene is about to happen that's just kinda stupid


sort of like but not quite as bad as when i shamefully saw Dane Cook live when he came to my college and everyone knew every single joke he was going to tell that night. i wasn't even a fan and i knew every punchline. goddamn that sucked

well he's only written two punchlines ever so they're easy to remember

"...the biggest shitbag
I have ever met."

I notice that the page The walk of life may be deleted without third party confirmation that the walk took place. I understand the concerns of the publisher, however, as the Chief Executive of Abbey Solutions a leading third sector consultancy, I'm not in the business of creating something that didn’t happen, it would be detrimental to my business which is built on trust. I was the organiser of the walk and I assure you this expedition took place. I could suggest you contact Sir Bob Geldof who would confirm this or indeed Dire Straits group members or management company. Also you could contact George Galloway MP who came to the start of the walk as he was the CEO Of War on Want at the time a third world charity. A book is currently being written and I hope this will be published later in the year. I do understand the concerns of Wikipedia but I hope you can make an exception as this was quite a remarkable endeavor and deserves entry in to Wikipedia.
I await comments.

John Abbey
