In the good old US of A Amazon charges sales tax on purchases. Has anyone seen a brick and mortar Amazon store that I don't know about? Other online stores only charge tax in states they have a physical presence in, but Amazon just turned belly up.
I agree. When I went to college, I would have given a lot to be able to have a laptop available to take notes or record the lecture via a mike. But then again I was in college to get an education to be able to pursue my choice of profession.
I guess students who were taking Liberal Arts courses weren't as serious as I (and I'm sure some were just taking up space ) and it might have proved to be deleterious to their educations.If so so, goodbye Charlie, you didn't care enough and got the treatment you deserved.
What I don't understand is why are the professors against laptops in classes? Are they trying to save their own jobs by making sure they retain a student base?
a CME will cause worldwide power outages, cause the end of civilization and generally revert us to either man eating cannibals, savages with funny tattoos and a general like of badly built all terrain vehicles slapped together out of junk or living under a sheet of ice a mile thick after increased solar activity somehow triggers a massive chain reaction that activates new types of particles in the earth's core and causes massive volcanic activity thus blocking out the sun?
I've been waiting for that since I heard about 2012
Not always, but in this case we're talking about various groups like the Tea Baggers, those who voted for Sarah Palin as one of the most admired women of the year. The people who listen to FOX News, Rush Limbaugh and others, the talking heads that only seem to inflame without any real knowledge or understanding of the subject.
"When it comes to Fox News Channel, conservatives don't feel the need to "work the ref." The ref is already on their side. Since its 1996 launch, Fox has become a central hub of the conservative movement's well-oiled media machine. Together with the GOP organization and its satellite think tanks and advocacy groups, this network of fiercely partisan outlets--such as the Washington Times, the Wall Street Journal editorial page and conservative talk-radio shows like Rush Limbaugh's--forms a highly effective right-wing echo chamber where GOP-friendly news stories can be promoted, repeated and amplified. Fox knows how to play this game better than anyone."
I don't know about that "peaking" thing being now. It seems that IBM is either going to compete or collude with
Apple's 3D display which appears to be coming out pretty soon. Apple's not known for pie-in-the-sky, because they want to make money.
Hey man, did you ever look at your fingernail, and you know, it's made up of atoms. Those atoms are like teeny tiny solar systems and they could make up a whole universe IN MY FINGERNAIL..
I was going to buy that cover and did some investigating. It's all over the Kindle forums how it causes the Kindle to reset itself very often. I researched it because of the way it attaches itself to the kindle: 2 metal tabs are inserted into 2 holes in the device. It didn't sound like a good idea to me.
I like Obama, I voted for Obama, however I also voted for Kerry and look what happened with that. Never ever say never. If the Red States and the Tea Baggers and such have their way it just might happen. Voters and the general public are not noted for their intelligence.

Or go to Instructables solar power pages and sew you own. Or Thinkgeek and for $20 buy the cells to power any AA or AAA device.

Yea Native American have know this for a few thousands years. Of course nobody asks us anything we're just some dumb savages. What would we know.

How do you think Santa gets his reindeer to fly man?
Our prisons are so violent we have TV shows about them such as "Oz" which was supposedly about a new more modern prison.
Saw an article with pictures of a jail in Sweden. I wouldn't mind living there myself. You can see images of the new Tusener prison
Derelict spaceship sticking out of Mars dunes. That would send a LOT of military money directly towards securing that find.
Yeah, like that's going to happen outside of a movie. Wait a minute, you've given me a story line!
Red Mars, Green Mars, Blue Mars!
Since I live in NY City, Spanish is already my second language. I think I'll be close on your heals.
No, but it looks like it might be next years most wanted Christmas toy.
So you want it to say riddles?
And his boy Elroy?
Sort of like car alarms in the USA. Who even pays attention to them anymore?
I want the sound of a n F-18 in flight. Just think of the possibility of downloadable car sounds for $0.99 each! Ka-Ching!

If she just read it and retained it in her memory, wouldn't it have been better? Well informed is better than pieces of paper.
