  2. Re:Nothing changes on Extent of Antarctic Sea Ice Reaches Record Levels · · Score: 1

    since:
    Living one day at a time;
    Enjoying one moment at a time;
    Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
    Taking, as He did, this sinful world
    as it is, not as I would have it;
    Trusting that He will make all things right
    if I surrender to His Will;
    That I may be reasonably happy in this life
    and supremely happy with Him
    Forever in the next.
    Amen.

  3. How long will it take for mass production on $10 Bet Brings Researchers Closer to Industrial Scale Graphene Production · · Score: 1

    I didn't see any estimates of how to speed up the process, any informed commentators? See it's funded my a military grant, so won't that delay public uses?

  4. video retention on NYPD Starts Body Camera Pilot Program · · Score: 1

    "While the 60-camera pilot program will get running for about $60,000, IT costs are expected to quickly outstrip that amount."

    The idea of video seems good, just wait for the requests for compliance, data storage, lawyers etc. Can't see it going very far with 60K

  9. Got SS number but on Hackers Steal Data Of 4.5 Million US Hospital Patients · · Score: 1

    "The stolen data did not include patient credit card, medical, or clinical information."

    That seems to be a rather dubious claim.

  24. Re:Finance is a valuable activity on Are Bankers Paid Too Much? Are Technology CEOs? · · Score: 1

    Is it finance when:

    "Today, banks like Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs own oil tankers, run airports and control huge quantities of coal, natural gas, heating oil, electric power and precious metals. They likewise can now be found exerting direct control over the supply of a whole galaxy of raw materials crucial to world industry and to society in general, including everything from food products to metals like zinc, copper, tin, nickel and, most infamously thanks to a recent high-profile scandal, aluminum. And they're doing it not just here but abroad as well: In Denmark, thousands took to the streets in protest in recent weeks, vampire-squid banners in hand, when news came out that Goldman Sachs was about to buy a 19 percent stake in Dong Energy, a national electric provider. The furor inspired mass resignations of ministers from the government's ruling coalition, as the Danish public wondered how an American investment bank could possibly hold so much influence over the state energy grid." ?
