In level 10 ambush I set
function (me) {}
for the red and yellow drones and function (me) {
var r = 'right:'+me.canMove('right');
var l = 'left: '+me.canMove('left')
alert(r+'; '+l);
}
for the green drones. But I always get 'right:true; left: true'. WTFFFFFF? :-(
Please please fix that, please!!!

Water landing means that the spacecraft is limited to a certain volume/mass ratio in order to float (preferably not upside down), withstand some waves, under/over pressure and 'salty water conduct electricity' problems etc. or alternatively turn to a submarine. I doubt water landing is so much easier than ground landing. And what you gonna do in case of crash-landing or some hull cracks?

I can imagine Russians let the Americans invent the pen and then just stole it. Total costs much much smaller anyway :)

No it isn't. All you need is a nuclear missile and you can tell anybody, including US President to piss off. And they will do it. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Korea for details.

I use Alt-numpad keys. In my case it works quite fast:
" Decrease height / width
nnoremap <A--> <C-W>-
nnoremap <A-/> <C-W><
" Increase height / width
nnoremap <A-+> <C-W>+
nnoremap <A-*> <C-W>>

Google helps when you don't exactly know what's the name of the thing you're looking for. That's in my case 85% of all searches.

Not true. Today morning "We appologize bla bla", last Saturday evening "We appologize bla bla aprox. delay 60 min". In the end it was about 120 min. In Germany trains do have delays a way TOO OFTEN.
Re:Chinese company uses leaked photos to copy, patent iPhone 5 design

Copyrights well... it's like you make up some deals (in your western family) and then you go somewhere else (to the east) and ask people there to live by your deals. Because you see yourself as the One everybody must follow. And it works as long as you have a (military) might to protect your interests. BTW this is the principle how any legal system works, all over the scale from a family law to international law. And now imagine yourself loosing that might: two lost wars, economic crisis... well, deals made up by clowns have never been taken seriously.
