If the diamond flaws are really important enough for people to have, then the diamond developers will find processes to introduce them into the manufactured diamonds.
The problem I ran into is that if there is a problem during that process, the image will get corrupted and you lose all your data. It is technology that isn't ready for primetime.
In parts of Asia you can buy all kinds of pirated DVDs, software, etc. at stores and elsewhere. It probably employs hundreds of thousands of people who pay for media, equipment; rent storefronts, etc. Is Hollywood worried about what ripple effects they'll have on the economy when they crack down on those operations? I thought not.
Ticket booth woman: Would you like to buy some Itchy and Scratchy Money? Homer: What's that? Woman: Well it's money that's made just for the park. It works just like regular money, but it's, er... 'fun.' Bart: Do it, Dad. Homer: Well, OK, if it's fun...let's see, uh...I'll take $1,100 worth. Homer walks in to see signs advertising that Itchy & Scratchy money is non-negotiable at various booths (e.g., "No I&S money," "We don't take Itchy and Scratchy money," etc). Homer: "Aw!"
face up Function: intransitive verb : to confront or deal directly with someone or something previously avoided -- usually used with to "faced up to my fears"
It seems to me that it has a meaning very similar to "fess up" and makes perfect sense.
You say "I don't know a single person that uses Myspace" and "I'm told Myspace's servers are about as reliable a crack addict". That sounds like a contradiction. Or perhaps the entities that inform you about Myspace's servers are not people.
Which unquestioned beliefs are we going to reevaluate before we decide we can leave? If we wait until we're perfect before we leave we'll never get anywhere.
For me playing Windows Media using the plugin will cause QT Player (or any other app) to crash when the window is closed. Other than that it works better than Windows Media Player.
Only later was it revealed that [Amelio] was largely a victim of the mistakes of others.
That's really BS. As CEO the buck stops with Amelio. No one else can take the blame for that disaster. He had plenty of time to rehearse, but from what I heard he refused to. He also wore a particularly horrible patchwork sweater, which I dubbed the "Frankensweater".
Amelio's been trying to re-write his history at Apple, but the truth is that he performed badly. What he did well was buying NeXT and (unintentionally) putting Steve Jobs back into power.
The research has been going on for years already. This is a new project to further the research that has been done. Spencer Wells, the head of the project, wrote a book about his work The Journey of Man.

If you look at the article you'll see that historical linguists are involved in the project. Their research has been involved with similar studies in the past.
Of course, genetics != language so there is always going to be a gap between the different fields. It is important to keep the genetic results independent of the linguistic results initially and only integrate them later in the research.
If you look at the map at the end of the article you'll see that the conclusions so far are that native Amercians came to the Americas through two different paths, both from Asia. An earlier group came on a costal path while a later group took a more northernly route. There is no evidence that people came directly from Africa to the Americas.

Maybe the Strait of Malacca isn't exactly the Pacific, but there have been problems there recently.

Yeah, wasn't that what led to the company's collapse?

I think the Uncanny Valley explains people's reactions to transvestites. Almost, but not quite there.
...you just need to know where to look.

Does Apple still support this when you're not running Mac OS X?
Napalm was originally used in World War II. It was used against civilians at that time too.
one thing I was wondering though is who employs more people?
According to here Dell has 55,200 employees while according to this Apple has 14,000.
I believe in Intelligent Design. It was all done by Benevolent Space Aliens. How else can you explain Tom Cruise?
Blasphemer! The Space Aliens are neither intelligent nor benevolent. It was the Flying Spaghetti Monster! Repent!
Ramen!
