It is a matter of safety, redunancy, and future expansion. The large median between directions allow for more safety and support more lanes in the future. I have seen cases during construction and maintanence that they reroute traffice to share a single direction's bridge.
Most bridges/overpasses are probably counted at least double. Each direction will have its own bridge. Some of the more complex interchanges will have many bridges.
For our society to continue, we need new generations. We also do not want just the accidental procreationto happen. So, society encourages child rearing to keep itself from going extinct or just stupid, though maybe stupider is better.
MBNA can be just online too, just needs Flash, but does work in Linux. I just used it 2 days ago to avoid canceling a Transgaming subscription in three months.
What a troll. Jonas Salk was working at Uni. of Pittsburg when he developed the vaccine for Polio. Pharmaceutical Co. are not interested in cures, only treatment. Pretty much every cure is developed at a University lab. The Pharmaceutical Co. are not good guys. They are not necessarily evil, but every corp. sacrifices public welfare for profits. The current American for of corps dictate that axiom.
9/11 is a critical date in American history. Anything dealing with privacy in US politics is goind to revolve around that date.
Besides with thier stance on copyrights the media as controlled by the big copyright holders, is going to label them pirates so they might was boldly embrace the name.
The for pay version of Mandriva or SUSE comes with the Nvidia and ATI proprietary drivers and installs them automaticially. Even the various free distros will get working 2d video without effort. Outside of a few esoteric sound cards that cost $1000, Linux just supports stuff. Any storage device that is USB or Firewire, Linux will support. I connect a thumb drive and it just shows up on my GNOME desktop. No need to even mount it. It will more likely support odd Parrallel devices out of the box, anything else is server hardware that is definatly supported. The only networking devices that imght have poor support are wifi adapters, and some are perfect and others do need a bit of configuring to be made to work.
If you use a modern distro instead of Red Hat 5.2 you would see this. None of this does Windows know what to besides generic USB storage.
Fussy hardware support? Compared to what? The recovery cd from some Computer OEM maybe. Linux will support alot more hardware than a generic retail copy of Windows. It is simpler to install. It does require understanding a different paradign than Windows, but well, it is different.
MS banks on the fact that people are lazy and ignorant. People need to know that choice exists, and then they need to go out and get it. The poor choices of some companies does not excuse the unethical and illegal choices of MS. MS was found guilty of illegally abusing a monopoly. Apologizing for MS, does not hold. There is causation.
I think the biggest is: Are your users brosing from home or work? Slashdot gets lots of hits from IE. Even Mandrake got lots of hits from IE, just because people have to use IE at work. Home users will refelct what people want to use, as work users will reflect what people are required to use.
The more market share other web browsers have, the more likely websites will not be IE only. If you are not tied to useing IE, then you have one less reason to require Windows. Even if no money changes hands for using a web browser other than IE, it still weakens MS's stranglehold on the desktop. This also ignores that companies like Opera can better enter the market if MS is not so dominant.
I can't really decide if you are a troll/astroturfer or just clueless.
Well, Mandriva does ship with Mozilla Firefox, Konqueror, and Opera. Three different web browsers, with one from a for profit company, two others from competing not-for-profit foundations. Yeah, that does seem to be a completely different thing. Go Troll elsewhere.
You do realize that soap, even better detergent, lyse cell membranes. That's all triclosan does. Even more important, some soaps such as Ivory work better at lyseing bacteria cells than triclosan soap do.
Would you really care to bet a jail term that any game has artistic merit in the eyes of Judge. Remember, most Judges are old men and women, who have probably never even played a video game and consider all games to be the province of children.
If you smoke in area near me, you directly affect my health. I have every right to be in a public area and not have someone else's filthy habit affect me. However if you want to go smoke in your own home, then that's fine. Besides, when was the last time you saw someone playing a game in public.
In many States, it is indeed illegal to allow a minor in an "R" or higher rated movie. It is not all States and sometimes it is at the county or city level. Not that I necessarily agree, but...
Congressional Subcommittee on Commerce, Trade, and Consumer Protection should be checking in on corporations as that would seem to be part of thier mandate.
Always on is a nice feature. Most mice power down the LED when not actively in use and usualy power down after only a second of inactivity. In games this can mean a bit of lag just when you need to move fast.
Gold connecters mean littly cost to ensure no corrosion. Teflon feet are good as it means the mouse glides better.
Razers are much more sensitive than regular mice. Too much so I find, but YOMV. It is most definately going to be different from most any other cheap mouse.
Americas (Plural) refer to North America and South America. America (singular) refers to the United States of America. Besides most Canadians will deny being an American when traveling abroad (though many Americans will claim to be Canadian for much the same reason so...).

Do you seek to enslave me? Telling me that I must help others, is in effect to enslave me.
Saying that spending money is wrong, well, show me one commune that hasn't failed.
The Te of of Piglet is better. As Piglet actually grows in character, though some might argue Eeyor does too.
That only works if traffic volume is low enough to permit a passing lane. In SWF, we have so much traffic that even our 6 lane roads are jam packed.
Well the coffee shop could have just blacklisted his mac address.

Soap by its very nature, is antibacterial. Antibacterial agents added to soap are just marketing. They do nothing one way or the other.

The problem is that when they refuse the minor, then Mommy or Daddy come in bitching about why the store refused to sell the game to the minor.
