SUV's are smaller more efficient 4WD vehicles than their full size breathren. The Jeep Cherokee was the first SUV, the vehicle for which the term was coined.
However it is obvious that the definition of SUV has widened since 1981.
However in that movie, nobody could figure out why the women were infertile (IIRC basically all the pregnant women on earh miscarried nearly simultaneously, and there were no pregnancies after that).
This is a common dystopian SF topic. C of Men, also a story by Geoff Ryman (O Happy Day), Y the Last Man comics... there are others.
But that would be wierd if this is ineed going on. Ironically, I was recently wondering why everyone I know has been having boys (my wife and I have two, a close friend couple have three, neighbors two, I have three nephews one niece, my youngests day care is 7 boys one girl, and another couple we known has two boys 1 girl).
While I totally agree with you (I worked for years on the Aegis sea based ABM effort)... at this point I have to wonder just exactly WHAT we would be defenseless against with out this system.
We have an effective sea based system that can be deployed (and more importantly, moved) to protect our cities if it ever came to that. The sea based system works better, is far cheaper, and is much more survivable. Plus it doesn't require radars in the Russians backyard, which quite frankly I can see why that pissed them off royally.
That is a knock off of our KV and is launched on our Sea Based AMB system off of one of their Kongo class destoyers - thier big innovation is reallt the nose cone that splits on half so that they don't have to change pitch during the intercept to jettison the nose cone.
However when they tested their system, they launched against a simulated missile not a real target, and the missile was launched off our ship (the Lake Erie). (I was at this test it was in '06 called Stellar Tsuru.)
So, basically everything you see of the Japanese missile defense effort is an add on to our existing Aegis/SM-3 based system. They innovated a nose cone, and are redoing the second statge of the rocket motor so they can get 50 or so extra miles of range with the system. The attitude control system you see was developed jointly by Raytheon and Lockheed, the Japanese modded it to add extra telemetry.
Note that this KV can egage one target. The KV shown in the video that you dissed can engage multiple targets.
They seem to be enthusiastic about it. Dusting off 40 year old NASA concepts and whizzing about.
Once they find out the the Moon does in fact suck and is quite worthless, perhaps then they will have finally done some real R&D that we can plagarize in 60 or so years (after all turn about is fair play.)
I have read the contrary... not that this means anything. With out having acutally seen them, it is worthless to srgue.
However if they do exist, they are all on paper. Have fun getting them into a modern CAD system. That alone will take over a year.
Aside from practicality, getting back to useless net based speculation.... what I have also read is that many of the factories that built the Saturn have been torn down, that even with a complete set of prints it would take comtemporary engineers a long time to train and learn the older technology used, and a similar amount of time to upgrade the plans to use current technology.
I don't know about you, but it would take me months to be effective if I have to learn how to wire wrap a computer, or use vacuum tubes.
On a classified system, the entire computer, and anything that touches it (be it media, monitor, printer, or network) is also classified. There can be no instance of one window being classified and the other not: they are both classified at the same level regardless of content.
You can have an unclassified system running right next to a classified one, but they cannot interact with each other at all.
You have stated that you are going to imitate your employers software. Not a good idea... or a good business plan. In the (year or two) that it takes your noncompete to die, write generic code to support your future product, but this code will not be your future product - they wil simply be the foundation for it. However make this code generic enough to easily and effectively go in a different direction.
Any start up company needs legal advice. Get it.
Also, speaking of business plans... how is yours shaping up? Is your plan to feature scrape your employers product, roll into their (potential) customers offices, and say "Howdy! Look at what we do! Just like company X that we all used to work for!" If that sentence summarizes > 1% of your business plan, I suggest you rethink things.
Doesn't always work on IE either, so quityerbitchin (or atleast direct it to where it should be directed, which is not at IE but rather at the lame developers who hacked this POS).

One meaning to to steal or commandeer at sea (or air), another is to illegally copy published material.
Get over it, it is just a word. It wasn't my choice to call it that: I would have just settled for "stealing."
Now, back to the topic at hand....
For asking about something which you are unfamiliar.
Such an attitude is refreshing, usually you just run into folks like the AC below who are a-holes.
However the link provided down below in this thread is a great place to start reading. Have fun!
Just wondering....
Really now.
Atleast you are honest.
Competitors aren't allowed to have opinions?
Personally I don't see how it would be possible to diminish the reputation of Dunkin Donuts further than it already is... but that's just me.
Tell that to the inhabitants of Rapa Nui.
Now, go dig out your canoe.

Haven't you heard? The massive nuclear arsenels are not nearly the threat that a terrorist with a shoe bomb is.
>> You see missles can't slew sideways worth a darn when in boost
False
>> and not at all post-boost
also false
I could not tell you about weights even if I knew (I don't). Regarding agility... well they test against the same targets.
Because state actors and terrorists have far different military objectives.

Figure it out.
Gotta love job security.
We are like natives paddling out to the nearest rock ouotcropping in our dugout canoe, crowing that we have conquered the Pacific ocean.

Think perhaps Obama listened to that one a few times?

If you've ever tried to shine a laster pointer on that bald guys head 20 rows down at a rock concert, you know that this is not a trival issue.
Since OO is FOSS, someone will simply fork the code with all that crap commented out.
No one said it has to be $free$.
