Remember, correlation vs causation. I can see it as being likely that people who are vegetarian for over 20 years are also health nuts in many more useful ways (exercise, for example). Therefore, there is reason to believe the correlation between healthfulness and vegetarianism doesn't necessarily come from not eating flesh, but from other aspects of their life.
That is much more restrictive than I had imagined. And no, I am not kidding. I work in a computer company that's been around a whole lot longer and has a much less hip image, and you can wear flip flops every single day in the HQ.
The point is, if the results had come out the other way, we would be able to help people recover from heart disease. It would have been pretty damn good evidence that there was something interesting going on regarding prayer. Of course, that's not what happened, and we still learned something. It is one more piece of data.
In general this seems like a bad idea. Laptops in class are usually distracting to both students who are and aren't using them. I hate hearing clicking all around me while in class and I usually see people on AIM or reading slashdot instead of listening to the lecture.
But yesterday I saw something that made me feel a little better about laptops in classes. I was in a class on distributed programming and sitting next to a guy with a laptop. The professor mentioned something about how a protocol with 64 bit something was good for 2^32 uses before it reused numbers with some peer. The guy next to me raised his hand and asked why 2^32, and the professor mentioned the birthday paradox. As class proceeded, the guy looked up the birthday paradox on google. Of course, this made him miss the next part of the lecture...
Slashdot Mirror
Why oh why didn't they deinterlace the videos before posting them online?
You mean retribution? That is, killing because you are angry?
By the way, lines wrap automatically. What decade are you from? Or are you trying to write slashdot poetry?
The funny thing is that you posted a comment that says "No comment..."

I would not expect them to get arrested. It's not illegal to talk about a plan to rob a bank.
So we don't overload their sever :) Here is a torrent for the Windows install.

Roger Penrose seems to think it does. You should read "The Emperor's New Mind". It seems like hogwash to me, but if you are interested, it is a start.
What I want is to boot MacOS on my PC. How about a bounty for that?
