Defense lawyers said he should get off because he was ill with Asperger's syndrome. That would be a "free get of jail card" for half of us here (at least me).
The experiments are so abhorent its urban legend whether they have been tried or not. Horse & donkey, lion & tiger are further apart genetically than human and chimp and produce offspring. And one of those pairs has different chromosome counts, like humans and chimps.
So I'd expect humna-Neaderanthal breeding possible and possibly this new discovery.
And my birthday, race, and address?
The only surprising thing is that they cant do an automatic census for 80% of the population they know for sure already.
Big Google versus Big China. Both have totalitarian control over domains. Both claim to be "benevolent" and deny the other's claim. I wonder if Orwell could ever foresee this. There have been scifi novels/movies about EITHER corporate totalitarianism or government totalitarianism but not BOTH together.
And not just the radical (dictionary lookup) part. I wish all my teachers had named the parts from the start. But you gradually learn their names. Then you sort of remember character X is made up of the water and water and po-sounding part and so on.
After a while you dont think of parts, but the "gestalt" or entirety. Same thing happens in English reading. You see the whole word, its length, the ascending and descending parts, the first and final letters. Theres a trick text going around where the interior letters in English words are scrambled and its fairly easy to learn because you see the whole word instead of each letter after a few years of reading.
The non-radical part is often pronounced the same in multiple characters it appears, particularly for newer words or characters. This happened in older times, too. But pronunciations diverged with time, particularly after the Mongols mangled the northern dialect. I can often guess the pronunciation of character I havent seen.
Unfortunately, I dont know if there a way to teach this. You just observe the sound patterns as you learn characters.
The screenplay writer, Mrs. Jackson, expanded the role of female characters in the Lord of Rings, I presume to add balance. It appears they are doing the same for the Hobbit. The Hobbit novel is even more all-male than LOTR.
The telcom companies seemed to have the street in my office park in a perpetual state of construction during the dot.com boom. First we'd see all the different paint mark symbols from the utilities and previous fiber. Then came the new digging. There must be a ton of dark stuff still around.
The cameras would detect human-like and vehicular motion and notify the border patrol for interception. These would be used in unpopulated areas. According to a 60 Minutes piece, the technology was still in the research stage and not up to snuff. The desert environment was brutal on the devices. There is no power or communications infrastructure in these area, so that all had to be added. Desert wildlife set the alarms off. There were many potential points of failure. Perhaps we should have hired the Israelis.
E-vehicle companies are looking at commercial charging: 400-some volts, 60 AMPs. You can recharge during a meal instead of overnight then. You wont have these in houses, but at workplaces and businesses.
The Russian trans-Asian railroad connected the people and capital of the west with the raw material of the East. China's project would be an update of this. It would be nice to shorten a trip of over a week to a couple days.
There are a half dozen things like this that will add 10% mileage improvement each- dynamic injection, continuous variable transmission, regnerative brakes, etc.
We form tribes of relatives, neighbors, classmates, co-workers, etc. Anthropologists/sociologists have discovered there is an optimal tribe size of around a hundred (plus-minus fifty) before it becomes unwieldy, bifurcates or dissolves. The internet allows us to construct social and commercial "tribes" from across the planet.
The flip side of the coin is that every new media since Edison's phonograph (and probably before) has been touted as fixing the broken education system. yet for the most part, they dont.
Half of the factories have been shut down already and people let go. Its a two year pipeline to prepare a shuttle. The pipeline only has seven months left in it.

Display and process accelrometer times series.
The stuff in the Stimulus bill was just a tide-over. Now its required. This could mean some interesting projects for slashdotters.

Gandalf, Elrond, Galadrial (she is not in book). And Gollum too.

Since many states have branches of NASA and their subcontractors, expect congressional opposition to the Obama plan.
The headcount probably went below that on IBM computers :-)
That image went through my head.
I wonder what they say.
Same price as late 1990s, although substantial dividends in the past decade.
Gates diversified much of holdings out of it. Google boys are doing the same out of theirs.
Everyone knows that :-)
When the Mac came out, Bill said they were working on a graphical interface. Barely.
