Well, we've seen: Superman fly in counter-orbit, the evil trio fly from the Phantom Zone disk to Earth, and I think there's mention somewhere of Superman flying to Krypton.
Well, my issue is/was different. When the prices are low enough for the average person to buy a phone with reasonable and sufficient features, the phones and calling plans are removed from the market and are replaced by these high-end jobbies only ethusiasts can afford.
Problem is that with the "little guys" making it possible for you to have a cell phone essentially for the purpose of having for the proverbial reason "just in case", while your calling plan might be dirt cheap, you have to buy the phone at like 50-100 USD. And most, but not all, of those phone look ugly. But you have a cell phone.
In the cell phone business, they can still get you one way or another.
I can see why this would be helpful for people who have just moved to a new area, or for people traveling (Is there a coffeehouse near my hotel?). I think in the longer term there will be paid ads from businesses on the results pages.
Congrats to lily's developers for all their hard work.
I just stumbled across this online music composition generator.I wonder Jan and Han-Wen are aware? Looks interesting for quick and dirty snippets, perhaps great for a beginner's music comp class. It also appears that GUIDO has a more "natural" TeX-like command set, things like \slur, \staccato. But judging by the examples, I think lily is a bit more versatile, in the end.
So, you have just made the golden argument against dietary supplements and herbal remedies. Namely, there is no control over the industry so one really does not know what they are getting
FYI, you can find $ubstitute$ that are available in FDA-approved OTC medication$. Products containing ephedrine, not ephedra, can be used successfully if you know what you are doing and don't have any indications that advise against using it in the first place.
In a deeply embedded comment it was said that maintenance of Hubble would be about $200 million / year.
Given that the interstate lottery is paying about about $200 million every six months and that people allow number-crunching scientific computations (project names withheld) on their own computers, I wonder if NASA could benefit from the public, which to at least some extent is interested in science, by fundraising from it directly rather than indirectly through federal tax money.
(OTOH i, too, can understand that some projects must die in order for new ones to emerge.)
If they really wanted to, couldn't manufacturers embed a passive RFID tag inside the body of the cartridge to ensure "their" printer only uses "their" brand ink?
I think for that to happen, they would however need a way to make the cartridges non-refillable.
I know some fitness centers have already banned cell phone usage in their locker rooms. Maybe other places such as lavatories and clothing store fitting rooms are or will be doing the same. Guess this could mean bans on cell phones at the football stadium as well (think: Janet Jackson).
Although countries other than the US generally don't have the same hang-ups about nudity, it would be interesting to know what policies they have regarding cell phone usage and personal privacy.
Just a case in point: Police have been known to hang out and converse in chat rooms in order to catch men trying to solicit minors for sex.
Now to the topic at hand: It seems to me that in order for this to work, the govt needs access to the means of communication. That means they potentially could make use of wiretapping, listening to cell phone signals, censoring snail mail, monitoring the internet, searching corporate databases, and so on. With the airports now being more securely monitored it probably is harder for terrorists to come to the US to meet, while it would be easier for those who could already be here but who are silent. There just seems to be no end to what the govt would want to access in order to find potential perpetrators.
Now how do Those with Power "sell" to the public? By voicing the standard fare benefit programs that lead to better healthcare, better education, defense, lowered taxes, creation of new jobs, consumer protections, etc.
After your post, I can't help but view these things as being dangling fishing lures baited with carrots.

Maybe it's Superman!

3721 --> 3 + 7 + 2 + 1 = 13
13 --> 1 + 3 = 4
Uh-oh. Looks like they're dead.
Funny, +1.
Here's a replacement link since the original link gives a 403 error. Hint: Study the picture carefully.

Onstar does somethings along these lines already, plus offers a whole bunch of additional services.
I'm not a customer, only have hear the dramatized radio ads.

As for sewage, I agree. As long as somone takes all my shit, I'm happy.
Not wanting to reinvent the wheel, yet apparently willing to trek to Mars? Something doesn't add up here.
No, I believe that the stimulating radiation cannot penetrate the cage, so the RFID doesn't react, so the sensors don't detect the RFID tag.

Yes, I believe Europe does offer a wide selection of women from which to choose.
Totally agree here. Now if only we could have accelerated ati 9600 and broadcomm drivers, we would have clear sailing with emachines's AMD64 laptop.
Maybe each of us is thinking something different, but your comments disagree with what I'm seeing.
Current remote X server: 272 MB. Remote (tight)VNC server: 60 MB.
Local X server: 161 MB: Local (tight)VNCviewer: 4 MB.
vnc here runs faster than running X remotely. my guess is that it's because VNC is mostly client-pull/server push oriented.
Intel's 64-bit capable Xeons are Noconas(emph. added)
For Intel's sake, that had better not be 'no cojones'.
