The Qwerty Keyboard is actually designed to slow the typist down because it dates back to the old mechanical typewriters that used to jam up if you went too fast. You can now get ergonomic keyboards that are designed to let you type as fast as you like however I've only ever seen them used by people poking them with one finger at a time.
Central park is where it is because they needed somewhere to graze cows so the city could have fresh milk. The same reason as almost every urban park in the world.
In which case they will make her a Dame eventually. Not that she is as deserving as Terry mind but if she works at it for another 15 - 20 years she might get it.
One thing that really pisses me off about just about every browser is being asked if I want it to remember my password. I mean honestly do people really trust Internet Explorer or Firefox to store their valuable passwords in a massively secure way? Call me Mr Paranoid if you like but I don't trust anything that stores more than a hash.
Given the current roller coaster that is diplomatic relations with Russia do you really want to be reliant on Soyuz? Also the ESA capsule although successfully tested for cargo is still vaporware as far as manned spaceflight is concerned as I believe they haven't decided if they are going to go down that road yet. With the shuttle being retired the Dragon Capsule looks like a good stopgap.
No mention of nuclear holocaust (As others have noted), Global warming turning the earth into Venus or a giant mutant stellar goat devouring the planet whole. But at least the didn't mention the LHC.
Actually although I can see why everyone is banging on about using it for space travel. I can see vast medical uses in place of Anesthetic. Bear in mind most operations to are a rush job in order to minimize the trauma to the patient. This will make some tremendous advances like currently terminal heart disease suddenly becoming operable because the surgeon now has the time to actually do some repair work rather than in and out as quickly as possible.
Not having a degree will not hold you back. Speaking from 20 years experience in the IT industry. But don't expect to jump into that plumb job even if you do have a degree.
Look Ma no hands!!
Just as there are people out there with no finger prints or hands even (Remove biometric body part of choice) there are certainly going to be people with blood flow conditions that would render this method useless.

Would be funny if the pc turned out to have child porn on it.
If they do it wont be the Police who find it it will be MI6 so it's questionable whether the police would ever find out as I'm sure MI6 would rather just have another bit for your dossier should they ever need you to do something for them that you'd rather not do.
These things generally depend on the technical competence of the cops on the ground (And static cameras are pretty useless). I know people who work in low level law enforcement (Council street wardens) who use the technology to good effect. I know of cases where the cameras have been used to follow a perp from the scene of the crime for over 10 minutes until the cops finally arrested him. I also know of cases where the person on the ground has redirected the cameras to capture the crime in progress before going in to make an arrest.
However these instances are still pretty rare and where the cops are not tech savvy I bet they are non existent. As for the guy who dressed up in strange outfits as a protest he'd have been better off going to the PCA and asking if they had a RIPA sign off.
Should be ISO27000 certified in which case how was someone even allowed to plug an unauthorized mass storage device into the laptop in the 1st place? Also why wasn't AV software installed on it?

I can see Clipy now "It looks like you are trying to launch a nuclear misile......."
And not a word about Gary Mckinnon and the US's ongoing struggle to try and extradite him

For several weeks after a beloved cat of mine died, I swear I saw him out of the corner of my eye
Don't worry it was just a glitch in the Matrix :)
Actually Opera Mini is quite hand for getting around content filters :)

Surely it would be simpler to have a satellite in the most favorable la grange orbit. Would make things simpler.
Would be funny if the pc turned out to have child porn on it.

Then we have a whole new Thermocouple technology the question is would it be any more efficient than existing thermocouples.
