I believe it has more to do with Idol-worship rather than just anything that came chronologically before Islam. E.g. The current Kaaba was built thousands of years before Islam by Abraham but that is the focal point for Muslim worship all over the world. During the time of Muhammed, the idols in the Kaaba that were worshipped by the Arabs of Makkah at that time were destroyed.
M42 (Great Nebula in Orion) is clearly visible with the naked eye even in fairly light polluted areas. Also, people have reported seeing at least one supernova with the naked eye from back in those days when light pollution was essentially zero. but you are right about not being able to notice a SN if it was only visible during the day.
I am exactly as you describe yourself... (even age) except that i work in an office and i do have bad sinusitis especially from dust and cats and strong perfumes. I have had about 5 cats over many years and have not got fully accustomed to them. I cant even try to clean my own room because i start sneezing like crazy (its a good excuse not to though:P)
I would also suggest NexentaStor Community edition, It is a hybrid OS using a Solaris 11 kernel and linux userland i beleive so it gets the latest ZFS versions which arent available in *BSD yet. I switched to this about 15 months ago after a couple months on FreeNAS7 mainly for the newer ZFS version. At that time FN7 didnt have snapshots or dedup although FN8 has snapshots now.
I realised dedup wasnt useful for most of the stuff i was storing and was probably affecting performance so I ended up creating a couple pools one for my media (music, video, pictures, graphic design/ photography workflow spaces, some documents) and another for development stuff like source code. this also made it easier to set different snapshot schedules for the entire drives.
Im also taking a look at btrfs as an alternative to ZFS since ideally i would prefer a debian/ubuntu based OS
It also makes the same amount of sense if you replace it with Sony/Microsoft/Google/Amazon/LG/Facebook/Zynga/Nortel/Cisco/Motorola.... and so on.
you may want to look up what "certainty" means.
you must be one of those midless apple drones... all the same.. all making the same joke in the same thread like all the other mindless drones before you.
note: this is not personal. it just seems everyone is jealous of the playbook and trying to keep it down. of course RIM's pathetic marketing doesnt help either.
The author is not the one who received the customer service email.
The author was able to play the videos for approximately the last year or so.
The author is still able to play the same videos on an Android device with and OLDER version of flash player.
Hence there is no technical reason why the videos shouldnt work on the Playbook. Also you cannot assume the CSR meant Adobe instead of Apple with any certainty unless you are Mr Mantri himself. The CS email is a buch of garbage that makes no sense. But Amazon has already gone back on their promise of a kindle app so im not too surprised.
A cautionary note for people hoping to build these devices themselves – I don’t believe it’s feasible to assemble it manually, and the PoP memory configuration we use is beyond the reach even of some professional assembly houses. - Eben

Almonds contain Cyanide???!!!
I love almond flesh
When i was younger i used to eat soo many from any almond tree i can find and never got sick. For any fruit we saw on a tree we just figured if the birds eat it then its safe. Oh well what doesnt kill you, makes you stronger.
Off to wikipedia since i can't just beleive everything I read.
ok i didnt read the article but from the summary they didnt block GPS but instead blocked the remote control communications link then fed it fake GPS data to make it think it was landing at the US base.

after reading this the theme song from highlander started playing in my head. maybe a coffee drinker is near.
Actually it went Photoshop 6, Photoshop 7, Photoshop CS .....
so Photoshop CS = Photoshop 8
and Photoshop CS6 = Photoshop 13
but lag kills people

how can you eliminate something that doesnt exist? Im sure that would segfault the universe.
we would need to map the star positions and physical landmarks to triangulate their general location first. Then its party with the hot girls baby!

ok after reading the wiki article, I have come to beleive that the "wild" almond trees here are probably jsut scattered domesticated variants.

they are making sure it works before they trouble the Bajans :P
PS. same gameboy from Zhaust?
now we have microwave ovens to do it for you
First of all there is a BIG difference between stating that "Israel should not exist" and "We are going to destroy Israel."
Do you have any idea how idiotic that sounds?
