My Dad has told me stories that they did this down in southern Florida as far back as the early 1960s. He and his friends would speed down Alligator Alley until they were nearly to their destination, then pull off at one of the diners on the highway (not passing the timer/toll booth), sit and have a sandwich/coffee/etc. until enough time had passed, then exit the road so that their average speed was legal.
I'm still trying to figure out how an officer on foot/bike/segway patrol can actually stop a car at all, much less one doing double the speed limit. Jet powered shoes/bikes/segways?
This site says that it takes about 18 months, but that they blend in other beers dating back to 1994...
How long do you ferment? It’s 18 months, but we blend in barrel stock going back to Triple Bock, so 1994....It’s a blend of really old and about 18 months.
So, I guess in a way, some small percentage of Utopias is 16 years old and counting, but the bulk of it is only 1.5 years old at bottling.
You ever try to use a forum that didn't require registration? Within 24 hours, 95% of the posts are spam. While I don't LIKE keeping up with lots of logins for various forums, at this point they're a necessary evil.
We don't use agile in our department, but we have adopted the daily checkpoint meeting for these very reasons. Issues don't fester very long with this approach and a decision is typically made pretty quickly. When a decision can't be made that day, someone takes away an action item to make/secure that decision.
In case you didn't notice... registration is required in South Carolina; the right to revolt is written in the North Carolina State Constitution. North != South.
By "subversive organization," the law means "every corporation, society, association, camp, group, bund, political party, assembly, body or organization, composed of two or more persons
If you read the comments after part 2, the interviewer freely admits he is not a trained journalist. Blogger != journalist, no matter how many people tweet to the contrary.
I believe the US has slightly less employee protections than this
Interesting definition of that word. In the US it depends on which state and whether or not unions are involved. If you live in a "work at will" state and are not unionized, you can lose your job for any reason at all, including "we just don't want to pay you any more". This is justified by the claim that you are free to leave whenever you'd like as well.
Even when I was a contract worker, the company reserved the right to terminate the contract with 1 week paid notice. My options were limited to take it (with no modifications to the contract) or leave it (we have other candidates who want the job).
Almost all Pixar movies and most Dreamworks movies are additional proof. However, I think Up was the best movie Pixar has done to date. The beginning was damned emotional... need to get the DVD so I can watch it again.
Ohio State University... excuse me, THE Ohio State University (does that piss anyone else off?) was founded in 1870. Oklahoma State University was founded in 1890. I'd say Ohio, err... THE Ohio State University has a 20 year head start if there's going to be a fight over the acronym.
I know an investor who has one separate company where he employs all those people your average HR manager wouldn't touch... His return on investment is huge - this group solves practically every problem thrown at them, and fast.
Congratulations, bad analogy man! The prime difference is that I can't go to the bank and withdraw as much money as I want. I can only withdraw as much as I have in my account. ISPs selling 'unlimited' service would be analogous to banks who let you take out as much money as you wanted, as long as your withdrawl rate doesn't exceed the rate for which you are paying.
The internet is basically a large shared pool of bandwidth where nobody really has a pre-defined stake. You pay for the ability to download bits at a certain rate, possibly capped at an upper threshold. The bank is a large shared pool of money where everyone is entitled to a specific amount, their account balance. In other words, there is a hard-cap upper limit.
The ISPs want to throttle how fast you withdraw your possibly unlimited, possibly limited but renewable portion of the shared pool. The bank doesn't care how fast you withdraw from the shared pool, but you aren't going over your limit until you replenish it.
See the fundamental difference now?
Rant aside, if I'm paying for a service advertised as unlimited, I damn well want no limits on using the service!
If you're going to the Tate Modern, I'd suggest hitting up the Market Porter a few blocks away. It was my favorite free house when I was in London summer of 08. It had several brews with quirky names like the parent mentions... all very good.
An added benefit... the Globe Theater is between the Tate Modern and the Market Porter!
Why not take the $1250, buy a second, identical laptop for personal use and set up an external drive that you could use to sync files between the two if necessary (or even a shared drive for professional purposes)?
If you go this route, make sure you never accidentally put personal stuff on the professional laptop.

My PhD work was in supernova remnant evolution. I'd prefer not to explode.

Not to mention the AOL Radio app and a local (to me) not-to-be-named radio station with their own streaming audio app.

Two 12-oz. Dogfish Head (Milton, DE) 120 Minute IPAs (~21% abv) IS seriously drunk.

You'll be just fine if you keep it to yourself.
There are those who read (and create the /. effect) and those who post. The intersection of those groups is vanishingly small.

Ummm, no. Mb is accurate.

Did you watch the ENTIRE movie? Wouldn't that prove that Duke Nukem really is ... oh, never mind.

Ooh, THAT HST... And here I thought you were suggesting he buy the Hubble Space Telescope for his kids.
On second thought...
Because 90% of the kids would kill themselves tossing the entire lb of Na into their bathtub?

Yeah, from satellites that point TOWARD the Earth, not away from it.
