For taking notes, I like notability, because you can type and draw with a stylus. Also, if you record audio, it can sync up with the drawing/notes you took. This feature is great if you want to listen to the context of the lecture based on your notes.
Legal gambling outfits in the US follow strict gambling laws that regulate, among other things, machine calibration, payout ratios, etc. Online gambling from other countries is outlawed in the USA because the mechanisms to ensure fairness can not be physically confirmed by government representatives.
The problem is, the US allows online gambling provided within the country, but bars external countries from providing that service. This is in violation of the WTO's rules. If the US barred online gambling 100% (i.e. Over the wire gambling on horse races) for moral reasons, then there would be no problem with the WTO.
Maybe we could come up with a percentage based system, so the loser pays the lesser of the following:
1.)The percent of their income that is equivalent to the percent of the income that the winning party paid their lawyers. 2.)The total sum paid to the winners lawyers.
For example:
Big XYZ company paid $5M in lawyer fees, and they have an annual income of $100M. Joe Blow paid $10k in legal fees and has an annual income of $50k.
If Big XYZ wins, Joe only has to pay 5% of his total income ($2500). If Joe Blow wins, Big XYZ has to pay all $10k of Joe's fees.
Google news was in beta for nearly 3 1/2 years, but it has been a great service for at least the last two. I think they are very cautious about moving things from Beta to production, and I don't think it is a bad thing. With so many companies moving things that are still being tweaked into production with a "we'll fix it later" mentality, it is refreshing to see a company, like Google, taking it slow before calling the product production ready.
Why not expend all the energy it takes to make this content that 5% of your customers will play making content that, say, 50% could enjoy?
Because that 5% is probably more vocal than the other 95%. It's that 5% that spend their days trolling the WoW forums and complaining that there is not enough high end content in the game.
This case states that checking ID is legal, however I am wondering if they tried the same thing against "random" baggage searches, would it hold up? According to this ruling, since there are other means of transportation, the airlines can dictate checking IDs. However, the people who are checking the IDs and the baggage work for the government, so couldn't this be considered an unconstitutional search, especially in the baggage scenario?
Actually, I just bought a GC and I love it. I wanted a new system since my PS2 died on me and I decided $400 + games was too much to spend on the 360. If the revolution is going to be backward compatible then any games I am buying right now, I will still be able to use. Plus there are a lot of $20 games available for the cube. I can tell people I want these games for X-Mas and they won't balk at the cost.
I'm glad I got the cube and I plan on using it well into the years of the next generation of consoles. I'll probably end up getting a revolution after the first price drop.
If you are already running FireFox it will prompt you to install the Google toolbar into your current install. If you are running anything else, it will prompt you to download a version of FireFox 1.0.7 with the Google toolbar enabled. You make the money after the person has run Firefox with the google toolbar installed.
I have had quite a few problems with "Dell" branded software in the past. They take a good product like Cyberlink Power DVD and try to put their brand on it. What ends up happening is the product becomes unstable and crashes on a regular basis. I have resorted to using Media Player to play some DVDs, because Dell's Power DVD crashes when the DVD tries to switch layers. I think Dell computer's are great (and dirt cheap), but I think they should stay away from the software.
I agree with this 100%. Depending on the size of your company every day may be a little much, but once a week is a must.
I have found that many developers write better code when they think it is going to be peer review, because they don't want to look like idiots in front of co-workers. It changes things from:
int x; int realval;
realval=10;//Get number of hours x=realval*3;
to
int iNumberofHours; int iActualNumber; int iSalesmanFactor;
iActualNumber = 10; iSalesmanFactor = 3;//Determine how long the project will take based on the actual number of hours and multiply//that by BS factor, i.e. the amount of BS this particular salesman usually spews. iNumberofHours = iActualNumber * iSalesmanFactor;
I already made my choice based on the hardware and software that I had available and I went with Serendipity. It works well for me and it is very easy to use and administer. I did have some trouble with their HTML Nuggets (Custom HTML inside their sections) not displaying the Google search window properly, but I was able to modify some HTML to get around it.
If there was a similar law for video games do you think that if a game store employee sees a parent buy a violent game for their child, the employee should call the cops?

I like the Zagg case that has a keyboard in it.

Now try this:
Move that song to another computer that is not connected to the internet. Can you still play it?

Anyone who doesn't vote for this will have an attack ad run against them bascially saying that they are for sexual predators.
I know it is stupid, but that is state of the american political system.
Did I read the GP correctly? Network cable in the cd-rom drive?? What, does it just dangle in there, and they expect it to work?
Well No... You obviously have to close the drive around the cable. DUH!
Did you configure it?
I didn't see it the first time I reset firefox. I played with some of the settings, restarted Firefox again and it was working.
But after getting it working, it is a pretty neat addin.
This is what my Acronym Specification Sheet is for, so if I don't know the acronym, I can simply pull it out of my ASS.
Actually, a better solution would be:
@echo off
rem Windows Batch File
%homedrive%
cd %homepath%\My Documents
echo on
The FTC has an alert that gives you a few options, including the phone # to call for opting out.

There is a bug in a piece of beta software??? That is unheard of.

What about doing something like this:

Well they are just changing along with their competition:
They started out competing against this.
Now they are competing against this.
Just change the FireFox icon to the blue E, she won't know the difference.
I'm up a few bucks on it from my website.

Momma said Arrays are the devil.
Momma also said Arrays are ornary because they have all those mallocs and no frees.

When you become a PMP, do you get a lime green suit, matching hat, and a cane, or do you have to buy all that stuff?
Wow! That is a great site.

For a simple blog, it works great.
