That version on Google Books is the first edition, from 2001. It only covers feature from 1.3 and earlier.(Only a handful of 1.4 features were touched on).
The second edition was released last month and now covers up through 1.6.
"How is this any different to saying that a girl that goes into a rough neighbourhood in a mini-skirt and is raped should also be jailed?"
TFA:
In one version, the scammer poses as a government worker who has embezzled millions of dollars and is offering victims a percentage if they help retrieve the money by providing a relatively small amount of money for bribes or other charges.
Professor Olu Agbi said "greedy" Australians who tried to partake in these crimes - even though they are scams - should be arrested as well.
Wearing a mini-skirt is not illegal. International money laundering and bribing foreign officials are both illegal. There is the difference.
1,728,662 Steam users have voluntarily agreed to participate in their semi-annual hardware survey by having detailed specification of their PC hardware cataloged.
Seriously. Visit SlickDeals or FatWallet and you will see that there is a thread for every single pricing mistake, followed shortly by posters bragging about ordering the maximum amount of product allowed. 99% of the time the orders are canceled.
"why should anyone discriminate based on the paper?"
We receive an average of 350 applicants per opening. We have to use the CV to discriminate against 99%. Interviews that allow managers to "show them real problems and let them find a solution" can only be performed on the top 1%.
Forwarding applicants who have been taught that energy conservation is unimportant because Jesus is going to ride a dinosaur onto the scene any year now is a waste of our time and resources.
The simple fact is that you can buy 20GB of server RAM for less than two days of salary+benefits for a quality programmer or enable two more (virtual)cpus on the mainframe for less than a weeks compensation. It is hard to make a business case.
Why would any industrialized nation willingly become dependent on an import as critical as food from nations that are just one Mugabe away from total collapse(Breadbasket to Dustbowl etc.)?
The 30-foot-long dinosaur, which stood about 10-12 feet tall at the hips and weighed several tons[natch], is believed to be the largest specimen recovered from the site's 75-million-year-old Kaiparowits Formation. A description of the dino appears in this month's Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society.
Almost every cross-platform Unreal Engine 3 game has been delayed for the PS3 version: Stranglehold, Rainbow Six: Vegas, BlackSite: Area 51, GRAW 2, Medal of Honor: Airborne, Fatal Inertia, etc.
This is the same technique that Metroid Prime has used. Large areas are connected by small hallways to allow the next area to begin loading. Sometimes you reach the next door before the area behind it is loaded and it refuses to open for several seconds. The same thing still occurs on the 3rd installation for the Wii released last week. It actually seems like a bug if you do not know why the doors fail to always open immediately.
"And without public schools, only the rich could afford to go to school at all."
No, funds could be tied to individual students as opposed to monolithic government institutions and private entities could compete to attract these students. That model seems to outperform the US model according to OECD metrics.
It seems ironic that countries such as Belgium and France rely on free enterprise and competition to improve the quality of education while the US is locked into a poorly run socialist system that outspends these countries 2:1 per pupil with such abysmal results.
Unlikely. KOTOR was a third party game published by LA. Mass Effect is being published by Microsoft. This title will probably follow the path of other MS published titles and not show up on Windows for a minimum of 12 months.

All you have to do is look at the wireless poll at ubuntuforums.org
Most users there can not get wireless to function at all.
Hours of following every guide with ndiswrapper, fwcutter, MadWiFi, wpa_supplicant, etc. have not lead to a solution for most.
If you want a large corporation to respect your wishes you must present a clear and present danger to their personal safety.
Sadly, I am sure other fringe groups are receiving this message loud and clear.
It should be noted that this prize is NOT awarded by the Nobel Foundation.
The actual title of this award is The Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel and it is awarded by a bank.

Just look at all of the recent hysteria of treating American children like VIPs that need to be protected 24/7.
In reality there are only ~50 children per year (out of 70,000,000) who are kidnapped and murdered by strangers.

The story states that over 93% of political campaigns are won by the person with the most money.
More like $50 million for trial lawyer fees and a $5 coupon for each consumer to use towards any new G84/86 equipped laptop.
On Disney about 10 shows (~6 hours per day) are 720p right now.

"During this entire time, numerous eye witness reports were ignored, and even the odd photograph was dismissed as a fluke."
//sarcasm
I guarantee there are more eyewitness reports and photographs of alien abductions and lake monsters than rogue waves.
How can elitist scientists ignore this mountain of evidence at our peril?
It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.

They use a 100 point scale with 0==EC and 100==AO.
Since this is the US every shotgun blast to the face is penalized 0.1 points while a nipple equates to 75 points.
