Walking is the best way to keep in shape, it's normal to walk unlike jogging/running, doing that for long distances can be pretty hard on you, walking is better for your knees than jogging.
Consistency is important too, even if you can't walk far at least do a bit, even a step or two, just do something!
I went to the gym for years and never progressed much but walking is fantastic I've never been in better shape. Although it's tough to increase muscle mass by walking, you need some light strength training too.
I often wonder why movie studios don't implement some sort of new technology to thwart 'cammers'.
When you see video of say, a fence, or some object with lines close together often the video is distorted when played back, you'd think there would be some way to project an image so it's able to be seen clearly by people's eyes but not able to be recorded due to a camera limitations.
Maybe a dual projector system and seeing that it's getting more common that a modern projector is film-less, all digital, it may be easier to modify it somehow.
A friend got a new computer with Vista and he couldn't figure out why his accounting program (I forget the name) wouldn't work.
After much searching I found out I had to go into the registry and change a key to "old" to get it to work. Not something grandma would ever think to do.
My first router was a D-Link, then when I upgraded I bought a Linksys which was ditched when Wifi came along for another Linksys WRT54GS (v 4.0).
Both of the Linksys routers I owned had to be rebooted on occasion for whatever reason, after I installed Tomato on the WRT54GS I never had to reboot.
Unfortunately and coincidentally (seeing this post today) last night my router died on me, I had recently updated Tomato and it was humming along nicely for a month or more until last night.
'Sandvine also sends RSTs to the other end of the connection. That means it isn't enough for you to be running this iptables rule - all the peers you connect to have to be running it too.'
Isn't that your ISP committing fraud? Altering a private communication with the intent of disrupting it, or the very least it's the 'ISP' impersonating you and also the other party.
Did they borrow farmer Joe's truck?
It's a bit disappointing to see such a high tech thing moved by the same truck that moved crates of oranges only days before.
I wouldn't mod the parent as Troll it's a valid point and as youthoftoday pointed out Professor is not a title it was earned and 'Sir' is a title, an honor, given to a man.
That's what I do, it's a happy medium compared to magnetic or optical (dye) media, and it's non-spinning too.
It won't degrade due to shock, heat or magnetism like a hard drive may. You also have to consider the hard drive mechanisms that make it function; use it and it wears out, don't and it may corrode.
CDs and DVDs can be scratched, are susceptible to heat and may warp. Quality control is not so great since they make them in bulk by the tens of millions.
I say flash is the choice, multiple copies of it and keep it safe by not writing to it unless necessary. Sure it will 'leak' but the packaging is tough and the lack of moving parts is a plus too. With the advancements in SSD's flash media will only improve in quality in the next coupe of years.
I work in a casino and some of our games have CF cards with the OS on it and the games on a second CF card. Constant use every day for four years and only now are we seeing some fail, that's not too bad, imagine if they were not in use but just used for storage.
Of course we all know what is needed, 1000TB holographic storage cubes!
What would really be wrong is if someone went to the settings tab and uploaded a new firmware update only to discover it was corrupt which ends up bricking the neighbour's router.
The neighbour not being tech savvy has to buy a new one. His lack of knowledge cost him money.
What I don't get is why an ISP would care if you encrypt things.
If you use encryption on your torrent connection you'd think that would be good for an ISP, if they're required by law to block people from downloading movies and songs but they can't see it since you're encrypting everything that should get them off the hook.
Bell Canada just seemed to just say screw this and started to throttle all encrypted traffic. Although they said it was because of bandwidth issues.
Speculators hope for a large difference in price depending on the situation they don't necessarily care if it goes up or down. If you're long you hope the price will go up if you're short you hope the price will go down.
Then there is hedging, you're both long and short, usually farmers do that to help with large price changes.
Arbitrage, where you can exploit the differences of markets that offer the same type of futures but due to time or communication differences you can swoop in an make a profit before they equalize.
Otherwise yes I agree, if it wasn't for futures this mess would be worse there would be far greater fluctuations in the prices of everyday goods.
Funny story, I was dhughes way back but I ummm lost my password and my e-mail address changed, so I had to think up something for a new account (same for another site too) I only meant it to be temporary but after many posts and trying to recover dhughes I'm stuck with it:(

#3 - Find a local swimming pool, strap on a pair of rollerblades, get a bicycle.
That doesn't sound very safe.

Now all the kids in countries where they have had decades of war can play Minesweeper.
"D-Wave has provided neither proof nor convincing evidence..."
Quantum computing is not a black or white or a yes or no type of field, D-Wave's response to your accusation could be 'Maybe'.
I watched the entire (HD) video and I was all set to see the last part where she has the old payphone release the coin after a call is complete.
"Time to try it out..." at 23:40 the HD video ends but the non-HD version continues on for another seven minutes.
Other than that it's great, I've always been a fan of Ladyada since seeing her cellphone jammer project.

Oh, and his system had 16000 viruses too!
I've got Ubuntu 8.04 on my six year old 1.8GHz AMD (Athlon XP2200+), 1GB DDR and a ATI 90600XT...as my only OS!
I'm so poor I buy my bytes second hand.
University of Alberta studying algae? That would be like someone at the University of Arizona studying icebergs.
You think that's bad? Wait until they add Tequila and pile salt along the shore lines.
You beat me to it, I always hate that when you see "it was called" whatever. No, it was named that by someone, big difference.

I have a Mamiya 645 J (I think it is) and an older Yashica Mat 124 G that I wish had digital backs. I wonder how hard it would be to make my own back.
Sure combat piracy, just don't stop sharing.
I believe this is it
