In 2006, 13,470 people were killed in alcohol-impaired-driving crashes. These fatalities accounted for 32 percent of the total motor vehicle traffic fatalities in the United States.
59 percent of those killed in single-vehicle crashes on weekend nights had BACs of .08 or higher.
If impaired, call a taxi, use mass transit, call a sober friend or family member, or use your community’s Sober Rides program
Mercenaries 2
Remember Mercenaries? Mercenaries 2 comes out at the end of August
The Mercenaries are bad ass MF'ers - rolling like fringe elements. They're always motivated to destroy, getting paid big bucks to carry out the dirty work. But this time it’s different. When the power hungry villian Ramon Solano crosses Mattias (pronounced Ma-tee-as) on a job, it becomes personal and it’s PAYBACK TIME.
Once Mattias and his team get rolling, things start going sideways. Their destruction is immense as they drive to make wrongs, right. The fact that they actually get paid to do this kind of damage is just icing on the cake.
When you get double crossed… You can get mad, or you can get even, OR… You can get a HELL of a lot more than even!

The truth of the matter is, nothing is free... While we all want to pull energy from somewhere, it all costs something, whether it's for the equipment and development of said equipment or the use of a public grid that you siphon from.
To put it simply... yeah, I'd like to have solar panels and geothermal... but, I don't have 30,000 - 200,000 dollars... so there's that. Plus, there are different grades of solar panels out there and of course, the better ones (the ones that convert more with less loss) cost lots more money, honey.
Going green generally means you have to have some green.
Really, I'm not too sure about this IKEA garbage.... If other companies pick up on their lead and it makes the technology more affordable, while not sacrificing the quality or viability... than... yeah, sure.
And yes, Kevin does have a sort of Dracula thing going on...

"I don't really care about Kevin's hair... he can do whatever he wants. My opinion though... it's better longer...
As to the IKEA photovoltaic cells aka solar panels... no thanks. Their bullshit furniture is already a travesty and I don't even want to think about their rinky dink solar panel assembly operation. I'm all for self-power.... but, there has to be a better way than IKEA."
that may be true but that ARE investing all of that money (what like 70 million) so thy definetley are taking it seriously. Besides, the more people are aware of this technology the better. People place Solar panels ad Star Trek in the same category in there minds. Its time for Solar energy to become a more normal ting to talk about, like usb or bluetooth.

I don't think Kevin runs any of them.
Jay runs Digg.
Jim run Revision3.
And for Pownce I think he is more of a "mentor" who passes on his wisdom. :-p
I guess the closest to running a company is with Digg since he's the chief architect... so I guess you could say he runs the tech side of things while Jay handles the business stuff. :)
