It's an engineering approach to weight loss. It's brutally simple and you can do it at home.
To help me lose weight I bought a Chesapeake Bay Retriever who needs lots of exercise. I run with him daily and he keeps me motivated. To repay him I learned how to hunt ducks (so cold & wet, he loves it). The lesson is to find your exercise motivator and use it. It's too easy to be lazy.
For what it's worth, using what I learned from John Walker and running with my dog, I lost 30 pounds and am in reasonable programmer shape =D
This could certainly help in muting many of the critics of Nuclear Power if these bugs are able to aide in the cleanup effort.
One of the main issues has always been the waste and treatment of that waste that the nuclear power generators create. With widespread vitrification for "safe" long term storage on the horizon and the possibility of microorganisms that can aid in the breakdown of waste quicker, what's stoping us? Firing up a half dozen Fission reactors around the West could certainly quelch the energy problems California and Washington are facing right now.
Of course, these bugs need to beef up a bit, first. --Also PNNL is just across the street, so it's kinda rooting for the local guys.
So, does this include the deleted scene where Jar-Jar gets a light saber up the ars? Getting away from that for a moment, it still seems to be nothing more than a rumor. I'll believe it when I see it truly announced. I can't understand what would make Lucas come to his senses at this point in the game. Sure, there's buckets of money to be made by releasing each seperately, but he seems to be completely against the idea of releasing his works on digital medium here. I'll just hope it's true, and the $39.95 price is a hoax.
The real problem is laws seem to be written with specific purposes in mind, leaving much in a grey area or even excluding future ideas that weren't originally thought of in the execution of the law. Where the layman has the problem with the law is rather than study and understand the law, one will refer to common sense to define his or her understanding of a law. Common sense usually has very little to do with law. Us/.ers aren't necessarily arguing the legality of the existing law, but more as to why the law makes no sense or how it doesn't seem to apply to the current event. Just my take on it... I could be wrong.
Yes, like any business, Microsoft defended it's turf. However, as pointed out by the incredibly verbose findings of fact, they used strongarm tactics that are detrimental to the consumers, distributers and OEMs. I never fault a company for defending and promoting it's products. I believe MS went too far in many practices. (Far too numerous to list here). Like most, I just want choices and competition to drive costs down and quality up.
The verdict will be just as most have predicted, and the quote is just a harbinger for the coming announcement. Needless to say, MS is not leaving the courtroom unscathed. Jackson attacked Microsofts unethical assaults on any company or product that attacks their 'core' products, but will they have the nerve to shut Microsoft out and break up the monopoly? Probably not. Just another day in the business world.
