I think AD is very lucky to have his first pick be wife material. Most of us have to experience a number of girls to find the right one.
I have had a small number of girlfriends so far, and have found them in our church, where they have a very active youth group. We date a lot in groups, go to the movies, the zoo, the beach. Steady girlfriends happen, if you really like each other.
My advice to jbennet, see if you can get into a church or social group. Date a girl for the fun you both can have. If it's getting more serious, you both will know in your hearts and soul.
Ann Coulter is a highly respected spokesperson for the ultra conservatives in the US, an author of many good books, and a frequently invited visitor to the White House.
Deer hunting with a bazzoka. Maybe it's a homemade large caliber gun? A neighbor of mine made one that shot potatoes with a lighter fuel and air mixture.
With creative brainstorming sometime comes the feeling of accomplishment, reward enough for me. AD just makes sure that we are allowed some creativity, right?
With McCain more and more the leader in the race, the 'Keating Five Scandal' will raise its ugly head again. Here is some good information: http://www.slate.com/id/1004633/
Zuh? That doesn't make sense. I admit I haven't yet looked over Dave Sinkula's links, but what you just said doesn't even make common sense. If the 'bigwigs' are getting their funds from the company, then it would stand to reason that they'd try their hardest to keep the company profitable - they'll obtain more if they take a smaller portion, but of a bigger pie (multi-year earnings) than what you seem to be suggesting. I believe the appropriate cliche'd phrase here would be "Don't kill the goose that lays the golden eggs."
To believe that the (hypothetical) 'bigwigs' would act as you imply attributes to them a short-sightedness I can't reconcile with their actually having obtained their (hypothetical) positions in the first place.
I think she is talking about the guys from Enron, Global Crossing, MCI etc. etc. They could simply decide their own bonuses and skimmed any money that would normally go into the company's rainy day fund. Also look at the money given to low rated CEOs on the way out (Pfizer, Qwest etc.), insane!
Firstly: To preserve the all important code indentations for Python please use code tags. I will show the needed tags in reverse so they don't activate, at the end of your code add this tag (/code) at the start of your code add tag (code) or (code=python)
I have somewhat simplified your existing code:
# randomly scatter some dots on a Tkinter canvas
import Tkinter as tk
import random as rn
def generate():
# generate 50 random dots
for i in range(50):
# match with width and height of canvas
x1 = rn.randrange(200)
y1 = rn.randrange(400)
x2 = x1 + 5
y2 = y1 + 5
canvas.create_oval(x1, y1, x2, y2, fill ="red")
root = tk.Tk()
frame = tk.Frame()
frame.pack()
canvas = tk.Canvas(frame, bg='white', width=200, height=400)
canvas.pack()
button = tk.Button(frame, fg="blue", text="GENERATE", activebackground='red',
font=('verdana', 10, 'bold'),command=generate)
button.pack(padx=50, side=tk.LEFT)
root.mainloop()

A man was riding in the back of his limousine when he saw a man eating grass by the roadside. He ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate.
"Why are you eating grass?" he asked the man.
"I don't have any money for food," the poor man replied.
"Oh, please come to my house!"
"But sir, I have a wife and four children..."
"Bring them along!" the rich man said.
They all climbed into the limo. Once underway, the poor fellow said, "Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us in."
The rich man replied, "No, you don't understand. The grass at my house is over three feet tall!"
