UK Approves of 5.8GHz For Rural Broadband
Tandoori Haggis writes "BBC News reports a major decision by UK Government to approve the use of 5.8 GHz C-band for use with wireless broadband. A prime consideration is the desire to provide broadband access for rural areas
where broadband cable might be prohibitively expensive to impliment. Previously there had been resistance to freeing up 5.8GHz because it is in an area of the RF spectrum used by C-band radars."
One of Nicole Richie's biological parents is a black man. He was also a member of Lionel Richie's band, but because for reasons not to be stated here, he was unfit to take care of her, and Lionel and Brenda adopted her. Nicole's biological mother was a blonde white woman. Therefore, making Nicole Richie a mulatto (mulatto being the proper term for a person born of a person of mixed white and black ancestry).
Will this help the UK dentistry initiative? If not, I submit that this is a misallocation of resources.

I guess the British Army no longer have any objections about the radar interference in the UK, since every single piece of their equipment will be in the Middle East for the next century or so. Think I'm kidding? The US still has c. 37,000 troops stationed in S. Korea, around half a century after the ceasefire there...
Tubal-Cain smokes the white owl.
hopefully they will be able to extend the range of connectiviity allowing anyone who pleases to go "log" the activity.
I didn't read the article. Does it run Linux?
...post something so sick?
You sick nerd. Go rot in your stacks of gay porno.

It's not all in the middle east, unless you include the Balkans and Cyprus as "middle east", and even then you probably don't count Belize and the Falklands as "middle east", and from time to time there are British troops on other continents too.
With SCO cranking up their punitive actions against Linux users, look for the last mile solution to become the Green Mile Solution.
If they licensed the C-band in Iraq, it might be hard to tell an AA missile facility from a rural ISP.
Brits can't misspell english, because it was invented by them, it is surely Americans who mispell words, seeing as the language was defined before America was.
Exactly. 99% of this 'American-English' is just common misspellings of silent letters in English words, eg FlavoUr and ColoUr.
