Not with the same depth. To be sure Google has been successful but now like Facebook there's not an area they aren't trying to penetrate. I get the whole advertising idea, fine. But when your every preference, your every movement, email, text message while going about your daily routine is going way too far.
Assemble a new one and cut through the old one then. It seems strange that a 7000 ton machine that cost $45 mil gets taken out of action by a pipe. It would seem to me that they'd make it a bit more repairable than this. Oh well, more money, more delays.
Most of these TBMs are left in place in an isolation tunnel to rust away once they've finished a job. Why not just get another TBM and scrap this one? It seems like they're going through a lot of work when the TBM is probably only worth 20 to 40 million to fix it.
On one side, we have UNESCO which is charted by a shadow government with designating and protecting what are considered world cultural sites. On the other we have the dark empire of Disney, another shadow that influences government in terms of Copyright and other legislation that it deems necessary to keep the Mouse protected. Any takers on which side will win this battle? I'm betting on the Mouse.
uhm, you forget all of these agencies report to the guy at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Harry Truman had a sign on his desk saying "The Buck Stops Here." All of the corruption and mismanagement in the government, including disregarding the laws and the constitution all stop at that address. It's time for the population of this country to become engaged and actually elect leaders who will fix this mess by disbanding those agencies and restoring the rule of law in this country. Or what the fuck we'll just elect somebody from Party A or B and just do that living with the consequences; like we've done for over 200 years.

First, drugs are increasingly being tested on homeless, destitute and mentally ill people.
Name another group of the population willing to be guinea pigs for experimental medication? Prison inmates also comes to mind but not much else.
Second, it turns out many human trials are being run by doctors who have had their licenses revoked for drug addiction, malpractice and worse.
It's the American Dream to have made mistakes but to venture out into new avenues. Is one condemned for life not to at least use some of the talents acquired through years of school and experience just because they fell down! If not we're condemning people to a life of servitude at Walmart or 7-11 when they could be serving a useful purpose like pushing through drug test results.
A zoned security architecture is always best and implementing intra-zonal firewalls is likewise a best practice however there's always pragmatic considerations because of cost or risk of the information being protected. If any of the servers are Internet facing or face an internal desktop network, that should be firewalled off at a minimum.
I was referring to FUD/Spin in general and yes it is associated with TFA. All you have to do is watch Sunday morning news programs and it's full of shit talkers who have nothing better to do than try and convince you that their position is correct. Likewise DC is full of lobbyists whose job it is to cloud the issues with FUD to the point that you and I, much less the lawmakers, can figure out what the truth is. Couple that to 24 Hr. News programs who don't do journalism but just 5 to 6 minute sound bites about something then move on. With more and more people getting their news from Twitter, Facebook and Wikipedia, is it any wonder why the Russians and Congressional staff are all out there putting out false stories and editing things? To put their spin on the subject to people who won't dig for their own answers.
FUD works folks, that's why you have spin doctors constantly shaping news headlines with press releases and carefully worded speeches. Couple that with a litany of non-profit organizations to get the word out and you have your own fact machine. Really, facts don't matter because people's perceptions are more important than mere facts. This might have been a great idea, a municipally based service without all the baggage that a big carrier brings to the table but hey, why let facts get in the way of myth?
Dirty tricks in business have been around for centuries and nobody should be surprised that Comcast and SBC(AT&T) did this.
You bring up Manhattan and Apollo and both of those have one thing in common. A united country that wasn't bickering about petty shit and actually wanted to accomplish something. Regrettably, the attitude and budget issues means that there's more bureaucracy and fragmentation on getting anything accomplished. Sure, private industry could take up the engineering challenge but they won't without sufficient incentives, such as tax credits or other things to properly make their "investment" worth something. I really want to see sustainable Fusion power but we also could be doing a hell of a lot more with Geothermal as well as Fission reactors and solar, all of which help reduce CO2 and promote jobs both in operationally and construction/engineering. That way we get people more interested in those professions rather than being a Walmart greeter.
Putting a lot into it, just not getting as much out of it. Congress is cutting funding for ITER because it's way over budget and like any International project it's got too many cooks in the kitchen so to speak. A lot of higher ground research is going on overseas and the US is starting to lose ground in key areas including nuclear energy and particle physics. I'd rather see $20 billion put into those research areas than the F35 for example.
That's the rub, you have massive communities being built with no thought to infrastructural issues, like water, roads, education etc. The one thing that needs to be done to take care of long term water demand is desalinization plants. San Diego is now getting one. but that'll solve most domestic uses, large agrobusiness has relied on cheap water, and that's what's made the Imperial Valley and the San Joaquin valleys prosper, without access to it the agriculture will suffer. That's something California doesn't want and it'll push food prices higher in the US.
The Rev. Jesse Jackson now meeting with the Physicists and asking them to create a diversity program for the universe while also insisting that they become members of his Rainbow Coalition.
"We must not allow the progress we've made in astrophysical objects to be eroded by these people who don't know what it is to be black. Black is beautiful. Am I MLK Yet?" The rev. Jackson was quoted saying.
This is the most blatant disregard for constitutionally protected rights I've ever seen. I'll make sure I carry copies of "Catcher In He Rye" and "Anarchists Cookbook" wherever I travel. I'm surprised that this has been allowed to continue but it's utter nonsense and just the first fucking page of the document shows how fucked we are with all these shields representing stakeholders into the system. I especially like the part where one person in the White House can immediately include a group or individual on the terrorist watch list as they see fit. Have any political enemies? They're on the list.
I'm wondering how Google intends to provide the information. Ostensibly, any RF communication is going to be expensive in terms of power consumption but certainly if you turn off the radios you could get a power profile that represents the state of an Andorid device without all of the activity going on to Google's servers. It's tenuous but while this only affects Google I'm wondering if Apple and MSFT are watching this because you know damn well they're doing it with IOS and Windows Phone to some extent.

it could go either way.
like chicken..

Don't read it even if you inadvertently see it. Don't repeat things you may have overheard or seen. Testicles, Spectacles, Wallet and Watch all apply.

Until they come clean on what they're mining from your activities, I'd stay away from it.

Hadn't thought of that group, good for you! Hope it worked for you and your sister.

Idiocracy, great flick.
I was going to say that. They'll just play whack-a-mole and start throttling that traffic next.
