I guess maybe it's just the Science and History channel but some of the answers he gives on those shows I just thought were useless. I mean first he prattles on about how weird gravity is in Newtonian mechanics because matter magically reaches out with a mysterious force to pull on objects at a distance directly. Nobody knows what that force is and this always bothered physicists. No that's not what happens we have to listen to Einstein and how he explained that really what happens is space is warped and objects are moving through this space in basically straight lines and it's so much better and doesn't have that spooky action at a distance stuff. I guess he didn't notice one thing, how does space get warped? Oh yeah, matter magically reaches out with a mysterious force to pull on space itself. Then by pulling on space objects at a distance are moved indirectly. (I get that relativity works better. My problem with Kaku's explaination was he had a bug up his ass over that mysterious force acting over a distance when talking about Newton. Yet when he talked about Einstein it didn't seem to bother him that some how matter still needs to "grab" over a distance. I was thinking to myself, "Wait why should matter warp space at all?")
Well that and when he tried to explain how we know E=MC^2 as pretty much "Well that's what Einstein said it was." (Ok, I looked that one up on Wikipedia. I actually understood their explaination and it made me understand relativity more. That was cool.)
From what I remember photons are massless but carry momentum. (Admittedly I only took up to physics 102 so my understanding of modern physics is definitely limited.)
I mean look at it like this. You can probably get a card for $120-$150 now that will probably run every current game well right now. (Well except for Crisis) So there is no point in buying it for current games. You could get that $500 card hoping that it will run future games well but it never seems to happen that way.(They're slow no matter what old card you have.) Instead you can just buy another $120-$150 card in a few years and that one will run it well. (This way you end up spending less money and actually get better performance.) So my experience is just buy a decent card ($120-$150) and in a few years buy another one and do whatever with the old one. (Sell it, give it to a family member whatever.)
I know, this isn't a case of using embryonic stem cells but pretty much the politics of ESC work like this. Republicans will often give reasons that should make them be for it and yet are against it. Democrats on the other hand often give reasons to be against it but are for it. (But I just mostly shake my head when I hear either side talk.)
Generally speaking soft drinks are acidic. The thing is acids catalyze the conversion of succrose into a fructose/glucose mixture.(Basically turning it into the same thing as HFCS.) So the first question to ask is by the time you drink that soft drink sweetened with sugar did reaction of sucrose + H2O->fructose + glucose already reach equilibrium. (Because if it did then there is no difference between drink a soda sweetened either way since in both cases you're drinking a glucose fructose mixture.
True of course. Still if you're the type that thinks "Oh my god nuclear waste" instead of "Wait, isn't there still alot of energy in there if we could just figure out how to get it out at a good price." then lead is "Oh my god, more polutants" and not "Wow, I could make some batteries and other stuff out of that."

Well to be honest it's not so much the ATC I'm worrying about and more worrying about some random pole shoving some useless system down ATC's throats because he got a huge campaign donation.
I mean from what I understand you use GPS to find out where you are and then have to radio that to air control. Besides it being hacked what happens in the simple case that a GPS unit on a certain plane is broken and reports the wrong location? (I'm guessing there's some sort of "checksum" to prevent this but then again I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't any either.
Here's the Wikipedia article on that girl. (Decide for yourselves if you think the insurance company did or did not have a point denying that liver transplant.)

Basically the Pub strategy is closer to Agile software development and the Dems is closer to waterfall. (Both have their ups and downs as far as I'm concerned.) Just trying to wrap my head around this issue. (But mostly I find quantum mechanics easier to understand and more straightforward than what all these politicians are talking about.)
That if they're actually guilty of helping pull this stuff off then fuck them but then I'm reminded if they get convicted that's probably actually going to happen to them.
It's trapped in ice and not in the atmosphere at all. As long as it was trapped it contributed nothing to any theoretical greenhouse effect. (Ok so I think Al Gore is exaggerating things drastically so he can make a absolutely huge fortune on energy futures. I'm a little cynical.)
I largely base this on my university experience of course. (A large research university.) My school made it very obvious that when it came to undergrad education that they simply didn't care one way or the other. (Hence my joke that when they heard that old saw about the difference between a college and a university they thought it was the best thing they ever heard.) I mean when you literally take a course from a professor who can't even explain how he comes up with your grade you just have to shake your head.(This was a well respected philosphy professor for what it's worth and is apparently a big name. He literally couldn't tell you how much anything was worth since he was just making it up as the semester went along.) So in their case it made no difference if undergrads failed since they were concerned with prestige and you got that from doing kick ass research or famous professors. (Which causes smart undergrads to show up like hornets on a soda.)
The middle road of course. That the idiot came up with a treatment that doesn't really do anything except the complications of having a big freaking needle shoved in a joint. (Which will probably amount to quite a bit of pain, some infection, some bleeding, but mostly just waste alot of the patients' money.)
really isn't this how it is for any closed platform? I mean I'd expect the agreement for any Microsoft, Nintendo, Sega, or Sony platform is pretty similar. I'd honestly be surprised if restrictions on say the XBox or PS3 were significantly different.

a wedgie and that's not a bonus.

That this thing pollutes by producing lead. (Which last I checked is the end product of alot of this stuff.)
