Nah, Thermite is a MUCH better solution. It'll burn hotter, faster, and ensure those nasty malware programs will never affect your system or others again.
**Note, for your safety, please stand back ~20+ feet while the thermite is burning.**
Our's has a 10x10 pipe that goes directly to the hall; however, divide that by the 200~300 students in the dorm hall and the mbps drops back to dial-up.

If you look at the number of console games developed compared to the few that get awesome sales and then do the same for PC games, PC games still have the better ratio. Hell, there are several hundred different games for the Nintendo DS (around a thousand or more if you count different language ports US/JP/EU).
PC gaming is a niche market, whereas consoles are for Joe Smo' who can barely connect it to the TV in the first place.
Right. Unless it's your brother that was robbed, your mother's house that burned, your life savings tied up in the boat that sank, your cow that was run down, or your new neighbor's rabid dog that needs killing. Meh, that just sounds like the making of a country music hit.
It's more along the lines of looking for objects in unpublicized flight paths that gives away spy satellites. If you're looking where there should be nothing and there's a moving object, red flags go up real quick. Now if they made dual use satellites (e.g. Weather/Spy) and publicized the flight paths, that would hide them far better. Than painting it black or changing the exterior. After all, the best place to hide things is in plain sight.
Huh... my $100 refurbed original Xbox (they're now down to $60) can upscale a dvd to 720p... and upmix audio to 5.1... and store music and movies... oh yeah and was 3.5x less.
After the whole Enron/World Com scandals and the advent of the SOX laws, the universities started cramming ethics down business major's throats. Although, whether there is any uptake is still yet to be determined.
Yet if you're "certified" and identify that at an accident you become liable for the victims until EMS or professional aid arrives. If something happens to them (death or worse injury) whether or not it's your fault, your balls are still on the line. You can and most likely will be sued. This is why off-duty ems and doctors aren't always willing to respond to nearby incidents.
Sure it'd be a nice fantasy world where we could help everyone and be safe, but this is America... Land of the Sued.
No. It's more like a Forbes style newsletter. Ron Paul founded and then took over editor in chief duties for the newsletter but had others write articles. Look at almost any major publication available and after it gets going the namesake has almost nothing to do with it anymore. As for running the country, if that means he'll spend more time on his actual job instead of hobbies or vacations then I think he'd be able to run the country a hell of a lot better than what we currently have.
And you sir are forgetting that you're maybe 2~3 feet away from your Mac where you can see the individual pixels. Try being that close to a screen with larger pixels and there is indeed a difference, but scale out a little little 5~10 feet like you would in a living room and the content will looking strikingly similar, if not the same to the normal person.
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
While the relationship might fulfill all three laws, but the breakup and post-relationship could break all three! The human could be emotionally injured, and the robot could be put at risk in regards to its own existence and having to obey the order that could emotionally harm the human...
Meh, might as well enjoy the Never Questioning Sex Robot Overlords while they're still around.
1.) When cloning a sheep to give birth to itself, by putting a complete strand of its own DNA in its own egg cells in its own womb, we would have a one in several hundred chance of success. We don't know why, but the rest would be miscarriages, still births, or otherwise non-viable. The cloned animal would die early of old age, nobody knows why.
The problem with using "adult" DNA would be all the "junk" DNA that gets mixed in. Every time you get sick, a little bit of the bacteria or virii's DNA gets spliced into your own. Another issue is the timing of when certain genes are activated and deactivated in the initial construction phases (going from zygote to full embryo and then fetus). We know why the clones are dying, we just don't know how to stop it yet.
3.) DNA is relatively unstable. I doesn't survive completely intact for 65 million years no matter how you preserve it.
Correct. It's estimated human DNA can last roughly 250 years and remain relatively intact. Afterwards it begins to deteriorate. I'm unsure of whether the synthetic telomerase treatments that are in their research phases will affect it, but 250 years could be the cap of human life expectancy.

I thought it was "If you're not liberal at 20, you have no heart. If you're not conservative at 40, you have no money."

There's a provision in NAFTA that standardizes IP protection between US, Canada, and Mexico.

Corning (division of Pyrex and one of the main glass fiber optic manufacturers) already announced their flexible glass fiber optic shielded with nanostructures back in July. http://www.corning.com/media_center/press_releases/2007/2007072301.aspx
