Yup.. Cue up the people that spent too much for their Masters and PHD clamoring how they are far better than the unwashed masses...
I know high school dropouts that are smarter than some that hold multiple Masters degrees.
I also have met many people that work in a foundry or factory that know far more about engineering than the idiot engineers that the same company hires.
When you are in IT, you get to watch the fun of the engineers that have never assembled the item fight with the guys that actually touch their design and know it's a mess.
I made Nitro Glycerine in my dad's garage. all from stuff I bought at the local pharmacy and pool supply. I was too chicken to refine it down to explode on shock, but a mason jar full of of it on a small campfire give you 5 minutes to run and hide before it explodes. It created a 6 foot crater and shattered a tree. You did not hear the explosion, you hear a POP,Rinnnnnnnnnng! and felt the shockwave.
Bad ideas are finding ways to burn pool chlorine tablets... the smoke from that will burn the leaves off the trees....
Now sparklers for kids.... crush them, pack the contents into a plastic pill bottle, and add a fuse. the explosion is not violent but insanely loud. Sounded the same and had a shockwave as well. Sparklers are dangerous!
Most fun is having access to helium, and aceletyne torches. Fill 2 balloons with helium, and 1 balloon with acelytene and oxygen. tie together and add a fuse to the explosive one. light and let go.
The balloons explode about 30 to 60 feet off the ground with an insane BOOM that rings through the neighborhood. It was fun to fill small ziplocks like that and throw them under the benches of the welders at the shop I worked at. It was fun to be 18 and a maintainance guy at a foundry... you learn fun pranks.
So based on limited and biased exposure, you find that what your teachers taught you is right.
Based on my experience with education at universities and Seminary the Bible is horribly corrupted by the church of the past. Lots of contradictions and obvious insertion of things that do not belong. Read the bible in it's original languages and suddenly the modifications become glaring. The Reformation exposed a lot of this and perpetuated a lot of it. Some of luthers writings talk about what he saw was wrong and was perverted by previous monks and church heads.
This was actually a fun conversation I had with the local jehova's witness lady who seemed to think an unmarried guy living with female roommates was somehow at high risk for "catching gay" along with other seemingly incompatible sins.
Read the original and not the corrupted translation.
Honestly, people REALLY need to suspect a lot of what is in there. The Catholic church and early church modified a lot of the bible. Even reading a middle english translation to a King James version has Significant changes.
Are you a complete nutjob? Who in the world connects a violent act like rape to being lazy and not keeping copies of your timecard? That's a huge insult to women and you need to apologize.
you did not deserve it, but it IS your fault for not making sure you have your butt covered. I hope you are smarter now and actually print out every timecard.
I want 2 of them in a 4" by 4" square. I have a digital dashboard project I am working on with some duinos and would kill for this kind of tech instead of the crappy TFT LCD's that are available in the surplus market.
If the hardware makers would build a CORRECT hardware platform it would work great.
A buddy of mine is running Android-X86 on a Fujitsu tablet from 5 years ago and it works better than all of the current junk out there. $350.00 spent on an android tablet plus it's bigger than a iPad. very cool, just lacking in the battery department.
I tried several of the Android tablets and the makers are churning out utter crap. Low Processor speeds, really out of date Android 1.5 installs, and NOTHING that has the app store.
Your only choice is the iPad until someone puts out a REAL Android tablet with a 1Ghz+ processor, real ram and storage and a current version of the OS.
Plus, once I got an android I realized how much the iPhone was stifling my inner geek. I've loaded custom roms, overclocked, rooted, everything..
so you just did not even try this on the iPhone? You have been able to do ALL of these for longer than andriod phones have existed.
Dont make crap up like you cant do this on an Iphone, Jailbrake and root an iphone for some serious fun... Hell one dude has Linux running on the iphone. http://linuxoniphone.blogspot.com/
All you need is one Gatekeeper set up outside everyone's firewall. Then have all endpoints connect to the gatekeeper.
Why has your business not bought one if VC is so important to it? Nobody blind dials a VC system anyways.... "Hey let's call XYZ corps conference room and see if they answer!" so it's not any work at all to have everyone call a gatekeeper.
Cant afford your own? Polycom,Tandberg and other all rent gatekeeper time pretty cheap. Far cheaper than asking the network BOFH to open ports on the firewall. (Note cheaper solution: get external IP's for all your VC systems if you dont have 30 of them.)
Even the cheap Entry level MXP models do encryption. and most large companies already have either a gatekeeper or external bridge if the users cant understand how to dial an IP address.
Very few of them use the Cisco systems. A $6500.00 Tandberg or Polycom H323 unit is far cheaper and much more common in military and Government buildings.
It's already an Epic fail on Cisco's part. Tandberg, the leader in videoconferencing has already started on a iPad videoconference viewer app. When they release this it's game over for Cisco. Rumor is that also are in talks about making a iphone4 app as well.
H323 videoconferencing on the iphone 4 will change everything for education and business. Health research groups are already drooling over the idea of an iphone 4 h323 client that will allow the phone user to use both cameras so they can do face to face conferences and use the high res camera for showing a patient condition, etc... We have already had several hospitals call about this capability for field doctors and researchers.
But the biggest point is that to make police behave in society you MUST embarrass the specific officer.
All this generalized crap is bullcrap.
the headline should be "Officer Freeman of 1234 West East street" was a complete dick to a journalist today. How often is OFFICER FREEMAN a complete disgrace to the city?"
You need to out the officer, publically humiliate them. It's the only weapon we have against the police.
When it's generalized and hidden it empowers the bad cops to continue to be bad and corrupt cops.

Add some coffee creamer to that balloon and you get a nice fireball

Back then? It's still common to marry off your 12 year old daughter in huge swaths of the planet.
The tiny world that is the americas, and western Europe is not what most of the planet does.
Yup

It seems your education about linguistics needs to be updated.

she was afraid you would become lesbian!

Dude. stop equating the Catholic modified bible with christanity.
Christ's teachings have NOTHING to do with most of the fake crap stuffed in there by the early Catholic Church.
Because That person that crafted that memo at Google hates gay people.
It's a bullshit move to generate hatred against the homosexuals. Otherwise they would increase costs because in general healthcare costs went up.
It's horrible, whoever crafted that memo and approved it needs to be fired.
It is no different than increasing the prices because "our black employees cost more to insure"
It's flat out discrimination and creating a hostile workplace.

That tablet is utter crap. I used one for 4 weeks and sent it back for a full refund. I then tried several others.... they all suck right now.
Yes you still need to wait. What is available is junk right now.

Bet you $100.00 that dad is out shopping for a new BMW 525.....
All that cash will disappear into useless things that do nothing for the child.
"daddy needs a BMW sweetie... Or daddy's friends will laugh at him."
Your fault for not keeping copies of your timecards.
I ALWAYS keep copies and am ready to run my employer over with a bus.

Too mild.
"you know that New CD you bought? ASCAP and RIAA think that you are a stinking dirty THIEF scumbag if you put it on your ipod."
"They also think you are a complete douchebag that needs to go to jail and be raped if you loan the CD to someone..."
That is the approach you need to take, it get's attention far more than "they dont want to let you"
But the biggest point is that to make police behave in society you MUST embarrass the specific officer.
