The language that keeps Constellation going was inserted into the 2010 budget last year by U.S. Sen. Richard Shelby, an Alabama Republican who sought to protect the program and Ares jobs at Marshall Space Flight Center in his home state.
I would also like to posit that if you are of the opinion that the Republicans have had little or no effect on the legislative process for the past two years, then you have not been paying attention.
I understand what you're getting at, and obviously you're using an extreme example, but if you have somone "working" for you who is spending that much time not working, you're drastically underusing your resources.
As long as the employer recognises that 40 hours of that Tetris-player's week contributes more value than 40 hours of TakesADayToCodeHelloWorld McGee's week, and therefore should require more money to finance, then he's free to reallocate his resources. Ideally, that is.
If the entire Tea Party movement hadn't been orchestrated by GOP-aligned media personalities, and wasn't fueled almost entirely by an intense, blind rejection of Obama, you might've been onto something there.

This attitude of "The US shouldn't look at other countries as examples. If we didn't come up with the idea ourselves, it doesn't deserve to be used in America!" is really weird to me, as an outside observer. The same attitude is present in the current healthcare reform debate and in metrication. Surely Americans are aware that foreigners do come up with good ideas, and that you haven't failed as a country because you used some?
Can someone please justify why we should consider the CSIRO to be a patent troll? They are an actual research organisation (a taxpayer-funded one at that); they don't exist just to file patents and make claims on them. Why are people dismissing them as trolls?
Mod parent up. The summary said to measure the rabbit from Earth, the whole point of which is to illustrate the distance involved. At such a distance, the radiant heat from the rabbit will have weakened such that it would be nearly indistinguishable from other sources much closer. This is where you need sensitivity.
Even more damning is that he has no proof that it was even being changed to Bing. The only reason Microsoft is even considered as the culprit is because he found a perfectly normal service, Windows Search, start up at the same time as all of the other on-boot services. This is something to laugh at at best.
spun suggested that you look at the linked-to studies on the Wikipedia page. This is not the same as looking at the Wikipedia page.
As an aside, you're a loon and I submit that the only reason you've been modded up in this thread is your UID.
Exactly, and what do you think these companies are going to do now that they know that there's going to be a huge increase in demand over the next 8 years? They're going to further upgrade their infrastructure so that they can sell more bandwidth.
The Romans implemented some socialist policies. I don't think that's an entirely controversial statement. Rome was also an oligarchy. Not everything fits into neat little boxes.
In 2006 Ken Kutaragi proclaimed that with the PS3 came "4D gaming". It seems that his retirement from Sony in August 2007 has stripped the PS3 of 2 entire dimensions. Sony engineers have only now been able to recover one of the lost dimensions via the use of specialised goggles, and it is not clear if the PS3 will ever return to 4D status.
When asked for comment, Mr Kutaragi noted that "Dimensions are but an illusion. Inside all of our souls is the true energy of dimensionality," before deep-throating the microphone and phasing back into the universe from whence he came.
It's amazing how much of a disappointment Obama has been as President. You'd think that he'd have single-handedly solved at least ONE crisis 3 weeks out from his inauguration.

He'd better make sure he has the Shoe-Dodging app.

Are you a writer for the television show CSI, perchance?
As someone who's in the middle of watching Babylon 5, I couldn't help but think of the Night Watch when I read this story.
