It seems to me that someone that substitutes time working at their job for playing various games at said job isn't going to be doing much productive either way.
TFA seems to use MMOs and Virtual Worlds interchangeably so it seems that at least in this study, various Facebook games were probably not considered MMOs.
That is a good idea but I doubt that there's much chance of it being allowed for any amount of time because it doesn't allow for forcibly protecting people from themselves. See the drug war for details.
Thermodynamic systems are more often than not quoted in Kelvin. The only times they're ever really converted to Fahrenheit or Celcius is for the public's convenience. Very nearly every equation in thermodynamics works best in Kelvin as it is an absolute scale from absolute zero.
I would imagine that licensed export is better than banning export entirely although it is still ridiculous to restrict trade in any case as the software in question isn't classified.
It's more like a fuel cell in that it uses fuel to produce a current but it is small enough and light enough to be potentially usable in devices that otherwise would use a battery. Also, the mechanism by which it produces a current implies that it can use a variety of fuels; pretty much anything that burns hot enough which is extremely useful.
3000-273=2727C They were rounding. Also thermodynamic efficiency is easier to calculate in kelvins and is standard practice in thermodynamics; see carnot cycle for details.
Paypal may be able to refuse to do business with whomever they like but so do we. Every time Paypal pulls a stunt like this, we as private individuals have a right to call them on it.
Several independent accusations and a finding of misconduct were not enough to remove this teacher. This after 7 years of legal battle with the teacher in question. Take another look at the GP's link, it's not just the fact that it takes years in some cases to remove problem teachers, it's also the huge interference by teachers' unions causing problems.
but I'm not nearly chemist enough to know if there are messy details preventing a suitably evolved biological system from substituting one for the other.
Well for one, a great deal of biochemistry involves ATP in normal life forms that has little to do with energy transport. Proteins can be activated through phosphorylation by ATP. DNA is constructed using ATP and its base analogues. Glucose must be phosphorylated twice before it is done being biochemically broken down to reducing equivalents and CO2. These processes especially phosphorylation of proteins and DNA structure, all work because PO4 is the right size. A system based on AsO4 would have proteins and genetic structure much different than our own structurally speaking. Also, the triarsenate analogues could very well be markedly unstable.
For the same reason archea do: a fundamentally new form of life is of interest to us scientifically. Right now it's mostly speculation but that is why experiments are being done; to test hypotheses and support or discredit speculation on the subject. It is certainly worth looking into at the least.
The title means "miserable ones" It's about a guy that was in jail, served his time and had to carry a document identifying him as a former criminal. Then pretty much everyone in society that knew he was a former criminal because of that identification made his life outside of prison a living hell. There is a lot more to it that comes later but that is the gist of the beginning.
The registry is just a new way to levy another tax (on pet food) that said, the registry applies to *felony convictions of animal abuse* in California. Unless hunting is now a felony in California, it will not show up on this list.
Apparently they estimate that it will take several hundred thousand dollars to run the registry annually and claim that the number of federal convictions for animal abuse in California is not large enough to levy enough fees on the convicted to fund the registry. In short, they want to levy a tax on pet food to pay for the registry.
It makes sense to fix or eliminate a corrupt system. Patent law is broken and often does more harm than good. The same is true of copyright law; most of the time it's used to extort instead of encourage innovation in the arts. The justice system O.T.O.H. is still somewhat useful and would be easier to fix than being unreasonable and eliminating it.
There are two articles, one is mostly worthless. The other is a PDF which is actually much more informative. The attack focuses on the implementation of RSA in OpenSSL and uses a cluster of processors to carry out the attack. All in all TFA notes that about a year of computing time is actually required to extract the key. The voltage manipulation causes faults which are used to extract the key after quite some time.

Luckily there are other people just like you for whom a market for other kinds of games exists.
140$/1 year = 11.67$ per month which is not that bad. Just try finding decent internet access or cable tv that cheap.

It is very difficult to protect people from themselves. The drug war being a good example of this.

Not if it is a contract they don't. The GP might be a bit pedantic with the AUP but it does bring up questions regarding Paypal's doings in this case.

Veal comes pretty close.

You can't apply a magnetic field to a material where a field didn't previously act without having the field intensity fluctuate (flux).
Coat the Iron particles with a corrosion resistant film.
Attention on Slashdot apparently. I would imagine that by now most people expect this as part of the cost of owning an iphone.
How so? It is *your job* as a parent to raise your kids and it is not the government's job to harass the rest of us.
