Apparently if you chip out a small square of quartz from the top edge, you can flip the disk over and store another 360 Terrabytes on the other side. The manaufacturers don't want you knowing this, of course, as they want to sell 720 TB stroage at a premium price.
Are you suggesting that Sony and Microsoft have cockled things up out and laid out a whelk-ome mat for other companies to winkle their way into the game and crab some of the console action? They probably won't need much urchin on from us to join in. And sure, the threat might just conch out, but there's always a chance that one of the PC manufacturers might scallop past the winning post in first plaice. But that's enough oystering the shit by me. I'm feeling hungry... for a stake!
Is it like a mouse setting where I can set it so that a small mouse movement equates to a large on screen movement with high acceleration? That might be fun, playing Counterstrike with 7 league boots on.
He was apparently shot full of more holes than a Swiss cheese, run over by an SUV, and detonated a suicide device. It may take a while to figure out what actually killed him.
Troy? Yeah, it's me! I'm on mission, They gave us these new VAPR Pads. Yeah, Troy, they're great. Now I'm here surrounded by all these rice fields looking for the enemy. No, rice fields.... you know, paddies, Troy.
*PAD*DESTROY*
Troy? Hello? Are you there? Why's this bit come off in my hand?
I'm not sure it's so clear cut.
Tobacco taxes bring in 12 billion pounds and smoking costs the NHS 5 billion pounds but you also need to factor in the loss of revenue due to loss productivity from smoking.
In the US $96 Billion dollars were spent on tobacco-related healthcare costs in the United States from 2000 to 2004.but tobacco-related health costs and productivity loss for that period in the United States totaled $193 Billion. If the ratios were similar in the UK, it would mean that the tax income from cigarettes would be wiped out by health and productivity losses.
But they should shorten the limit to 10 minutes or less.

It shouldn't take any competent programmer more than a few minutes to google some fitting example code, rename a few variables and update the comments:)
they are as valuable as speed writing tests
Took the GRE a year ago, and got a 0 on the writing portion since I decided to write an essay about how useless speed writing is.
Real writing, is a very useful skill- that's when you have access to a piece of writing software that can do simple things like spell check!
Similarly, knowing how to spit out code is not nearly as useful of a skill as knowing how to break a problem down, and decide what tools would be best for it.
Gammar Nazi recommends that you upgrade to "a piece of writing software" that can also perform simple grammar checks.
Our office went paperless but management took it too far when they also removed the toilet paper!
When we complained about not having paper to clean our nether regions, we were told that company policy was that everything should be done digitally!
Boom! Boom!
The original paper is available in a number of places - just search for PCA1clinical2011.pdf - and contains the original questions. Not sure how Pearson gets to claim copyright over something that was published in The Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology based on research probably conducted with public money (Univ. of PA, PA General HGopsital, Camden County Community Mental Health Program)
Seafood Raised on Animal Feces Approved for Consumers
How dare they feed this shit to fish. If this shit was approved for consumers, then we consumers should get to eat it, not some lousy fish! I expect PETA is behind this making sure the carp get the crap instead of us!
Too true, What bugs me these days is how many TV documentaries feature interviews with people who are driving cars. Stop talking to them and let them concentrate on driving. If you want to interview them, hire a bloody studio and sit them on a couch to do it - not while they're trying to guide 2 tonnes of metal through a busy intersection in town at 30 miles per hour!
This is very hard on hippies. On one hand they want to save the planet by using the more efficient low-energy light bulbs, but on the other hand, they don't work in lava lamps!
We had a time a few years back when the offices at work were getting close to 40 degrees C. These babies work quite well if it's not too humid. You can even put them in a fridge for an extra cooling effect. Turning on the fan helps the evaporation.
A Higgs Boson is a quantum of the Higgs Field which gives everything mass.
The Higgs Boson has a probable mass of around 126 GeV.
So what gives the Higgs Boson mass?

Interesting article on Space News
http://www.spacenews.com/article/launch-report/36112proton-launch-failures-more-likely-when-russia-footing-the-bill#.Ud2DnPkyZ8E/
that points out that the Proton launch failures have a mysterious correlation to whether the customer is private or government (with government launches being the unlucky ones).
I stole all the mollusc puns. I admit it was shellfish of me.

Shame?
Instead of having a single view of a person you could look at them from multiple angles, just as if they where in the same room.
"Get out from under the desk, Jones. Nobody believes you've dropped your pen...again!".
We have some text files from a Unix system named aux.something Trying to copy them or open them in Windows causes the whole system to grind to a halt.
it has to be "destroy on command".

Depends on the size of the target market.
Apparently they're unbelievably enormous...

Apparently the main reason for decline in British Jedi followers is the current midi-chlorian shortage in the UK.
And often against providing contraception that would prevent the unwanted pregnancy in the first place.

What happens when I wave my wang at it.
You'll probably have to adjust the zoom...
