You *do* realize that there have been long periods of time where you get negative *nominal* returns from the stock market. 1969-1982 (S&P 500). If you talk about *real* returns (after inflation), results are even worse. There are probably worse drops if you consider the Dow and the great depression.
People don't realize that the bull market between 1982-2000 was a positive fluctuation, not the rule.
That's a big stinking lie because H-1b visas have been portable for several years now; H-1b employees can simply change jobs. Not very simple, *especially* if you are in the middle of the process of getting a green card, then you are really tied to the employer until you are at your final stages. In general, most people don't want to mess with their employment, because god knows what mess ups can happen with the INS.
Please, if you're going to use the ideas of another person, at least credit them for it. In this case, you're quoting Robert Heinlein's idea for property tax in his novel "The Number of the Beast" Didn't you hear? Heinlein couldn't afford his IP taxes and the grandparent already bought it.
But seriously, if someone attacks you / declares war on you, you can send these planes to take out their key C&C / supply centers + infrastructure such that the guy attacking you has trouble sending his stuff against you.
A Jedi can slice through a person with a light saber with no perceptible change to the momentum of the saber, so it seems likely that there is not a whole lot of tactile feedback in a "real" light saber either. The way you say this, it sounds like its from personal experience...
Besides the GP poster was likely talking about feedback when your opponent parries with his lightsaber. Its unlikely that he was referring to the tactile feedback of when his sword slices through people. If he was, it wouldn't be wise to argue with him.
In the past year or so, the amount of unplayable, scratched DVD discs i receive from blockbuster online has risen dramatically. I wonder if the Xbox360 has anything to do with this.
1. Sex IS sharing. It's the ultimate cross-fertilization (literally). Unfortunately, its not that easy to get women to share their source. And when they go completely open-source, you don't want to use the software anyway, probably viruses lurking in there somewhere.
In a decision reported late Friday by CNET News.com, a federal judge in Los Angeles found (PDF) that a computer server's RAM, or random-access memory, is a tangible document that can be stored and must be turned over in a lawsuit. In other news, federal judge in Los Angeles found that the compression waves in the air of a board room, or sound, is a tangible record that can be stored (using a microphone) and must be turned over in a lawsuit.
Reading the wikipedia article on the RK62, this section really stood out...
As an anecdote, the conscripts noticed soon the versatility of the Rk 62 magazines for opening beer bottles. This usage damaged the magazines, causing problems with the ammunition feed. The Israelis introduced an integral bottle-opener on the Galil to avoid magazine damage. The Finnish Army has replaced the metal magazines with ones made of plastic.
Cat 6 will work (maybe) for shorter distances. Article linked below says will work up to 55 meters, but remember reading another article that says otherwise. Cat 6a and Cat 7 will work up to 100 meters.
The adoption curve for 10Gig E isn't as fast as GigE, but in 5-10 years I'd be surprised if it isn't commonplace.
Last time I actually did the calculation I came up with six cows can keep one car running. With a million cow, we are talking about 15% reduction in oil consumption. Since we import 50% of the oil, this would represent 30% reduction in oil imports. Holy cow!

Thanks to the housing bubble bursting, states are facing severe budget problems. Expect to see all sorts of ways to tax come out of the woodwork.
The shareholders got more or less shafted, but the bondholders got away whole, thanks to the taxpayers.
You can get in 3cm pocket-to-pocket range by simply brushing by them while walking in the subway, etc.
Besides, I'm sure some enterprising hacker can create a larger, yet portable sensitive antenna that gets more range than 3 cm.
3 cm is a limitation, not a feature.
Where are the other four?
If a large number of universities ban together to publicly boycott this, there is no way the govt will actually try to enforce this law.
if they were planning on this, why did they sign up for a *five* year deal with AT&T?
Enjoy your trip to Cuba, dbIII. :)
The best defense is a good offense!

..., but I try to get player characters to grow "horizontally" How? By feeding them fast food?Maybe that explains why the title of the article is "Where the Wii fits in".
