    the maximum is 21 years but Norway has a system wherein if someone is deemed "high risk" the state prosecutor can seek a 5-year extension, so he may well be jailed forever. it's just a European thing, based on the European Convention of Human Rights. rehabilitative approaches and liberal...
  2. Norway Jihad

    surely you don't see this as an act of political or religious terrorism? political terrorism tends to be associated with radical separatist/independence movements whilst religious terrorism seems to me to imply that the perceived word of god is the sole justification of one's actions. he was an...
  3. What IS the "meaning of life"? Does it differ person-to-person?

    Yes, we give life a purpose because the discombobulating society of today offers no actual direction but it doesn't mean that life has a purpose or you're necessarily fulfilling any kind of purpose by doing the things that you've invented should be part of le but. Whilst we're at it, the belief...
  4. What IS the "meaning of life"? Does it differ person-to-person?

    There is quite clearly no meaning of life. We're formed accidentally and we are destined to live an accidental life of which there is absolutely no purpose. Many of the concepts, ideas and goals that people live for would not have existed if society hadn't come around, so really you're basing...

  6. This Is Not A Now Playing Thread

    Pain of Salvation – Darkness Of Mine The new Pain of Salvation album is a bizarre genre shift and most of the tech-wank solos are removed. The song is supposed to be about growing up and the insecurity that loving somebody initially brings.

    http://www.smogon.com/dp/articles/trick_room_guide Spiritomb has a 92 base stat in Special Attack and Attack, not 95. Don't delete this post as there are numerous grammar errors in that article and I'd like to fix them also.
  9. Anyone else ever feel like a complete failure at life

    You feel like a complete failure in life because you have no statistical measure of how successful you are. I would recommend setting yourself some kind of goal - be it a small goal, or a large goal. Take up a hobby which you know is benefiting others - bee-keeping being a surprising example...

    'most anything'? Should probably be, "Gorebyss's Special Attack is certainly impressive, and its movepool, while not particularly large, is sufficient to annihilate most Pokémon it should encounter" http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/gorebyss
  13. Virginity

    The cynical approach to this would be that sex is just the brain firing electrical impulses, hormones, and some secretions. The "sex" that you describe as holding off having out of choice is merely what societal pressure appears to have done to the concept of sex and thus your own opinion of it...
  14. Pokemon Black & White, aka Gen 5. Coming to Japan in Fall 2010.

    Well they obviously aren't going to make a Steel- or Normal-type Eeveelution, for the simple reason that all of the current Eeveelutions are members of an elementally exclusive type. Grass Pokémon often only learn a few Grass moves and Swords Dance, Fire Pokémon often only learn Fire moves and...

  16. Why did you choose the religion you follow?

    I'm an agnostic with spiritual leanings. If I wrote more on it no-one would read it but there you are.
  17. This is really pissing me off?

    Abhorring anything that isn't drugs and that was at one point associated with youth is a natural stage that one goes through. It's related to a few factors i.e. confusion as to what adulthood involves (many people adopt a strange delusion that 'adulthood' specifically means drugs, sex and...
  18. What is the cause of extremism?

    The cause of extremism is social instability. Simple.
  19. Machoke (Analysis)

    Sorry for double-post. *Substitute. Yes, correcting typos is the lowest form of grammar correction. Should be "It also doubles as a scouting method, effectively dealing with leads it cannot deal with using its attacking moves, like Alakazam, Moltres and Trick users. Your comma. "Rock Slide deals...
  20. Machoke (Analysis)
