They are more common near the magnetic poles (both north and south). The closer you are to them, the greater your chance of seeing the Aurora. If the storm is strong enough, I know they've been seen as far south as 47 deg. Whenever I see news of solar activity, such as the CME, I usually look to spaceweather.com for updates.
The Aurora Forecast predicts a good show. Too bad I doubt it will get dark enough in AK for my friends to see. Hopefully I can see it down here in Washington!
If you've ever registered your printer for the warranty or called support on that printer they can. Name, phone, serial number and address are normally required information their helpdesk staff has to get.
Recall an article from last year labeling Pakistan as one of the cheapest (and best) outsourcing country for IT jobs. I sure wouldn't want them into my network without VPN or encryption of sort. Good by jobs.
I like the 'allows for about X amount of page turns' statement. Works for printers. But there are factors that doesn't seem to be considered.
I don't have a Kindle or Nook, I have a BeBook, but my problem appears to be universal to these readers as well. If I leave my reader in standby mode, the battery is dead within a few days to a week. But if I use it every night for an hour or so, I can make a couple of weeks on the same charge.
DirectTV is going to be offering an On Demand service to its subscribers. That service has been around for years, and Netflix didn't start it. Just that Netflix is the first that I know of that provided the service without being the community cable company.
Reminds me of when people said GWB handled 911 far better than Gore would have. It's just a baseless statement. We don't know how McCain would have been because he lost the election.
I don't understand how they can tell the difference between a jailbroken iphone and an iphone using a lot of data. I'd assume the PC and phone are NAT'ed together, shouldn't it appear that the data is just coming from the phone instead of from multiple devices ?
I never looked into the eInk technology and how they really function. I assumed it was similar to how toner cartridges functioned.
I have a Hanlin B/W book reader, and I enjoy it quite a bit. It changes pages rather slowly, but I learned to time it right so when I reach the end of the page it changes:) The battery life isn't great and not truly what is advertised, but I think it is a problem with the battery instead of the unit.
I was playing around with a Nook at Barnes and Noble, I take it you like them a lot ? I was impressed at how slick and fast they operate. I was very tempted to pick one up last time I was in there. I am lucky it wasn't payday week;)
I've known "consultants" for small businesses that would replace failed components with other cheap components. That way he'd have a somewhat steady source of income. "That file server lost connectivity...probably that dlink nic I installed six months ago."
I have to disagree here. I have been using an eInk book reader for the past two years and have had no regrets. I take it on trips as well as to the office to read while at lunch. I can lock the keys instead of looking for a bookmark, and if I exit the book I can start right up where I left off. I used to do reading off of an Ipaq, and that was not enjoyable for long periods of time.
I would not recommend eInk for manuals with illustrations yet because I don't see a device that can do them justice. In my experience the PDFs were reduced so much so everything fits on a page, and the diagrams and text were almost unreadable.
But ebook readers for novels and such, totally as pleasant as holding a book in my experience.
Back home, the two large hospital chains use different products for their EMR. They got together for a joint-venture to share patient data. The two vendors are working together so data from one system can transfer and be available in the other.
If the patient decides he/she wants to use another hospital for work, her information and history is already available. Not every day you see hospitals working to ensure patients are taken care of before their wallet.
Why not copy what The Tunnel movie did and have people pay $1 per frame. They also randomly choose a frame, and the owner of that frame gets %1 of any money they make.
Certainly a fun way to get involved in a movie creation.
Would it be possible to donate cycles from individual PCs to help render scenes, similar to the SETI project ? That would cut costs dramatically.
I think the idea of people becoming gods is a misinterpretation of the references of scripture that says we will have all that the father has if we keep the commandments and endure. It is only a guess.
It has never been spoken by any of the church's general authorities and I've never seen references to becoming a god in the scriptures. Sadly I am pretty sure it is false doctrine that keeps spreading.

You should follow your own advice. Grammar is the word you're looking for, not grammer.
Please don't group Glenn Beck with the rest of us. There are plenty of Mormons who find him obnoxious and crazy.
The summary said 11-13th, so I assume any location with clear skies.

I haven't a clue. Being out away from light pollution would be the best bet though!

You're correct. I don't understand why "cyber criminal" is listed as a type of hacker when most of the listed types are considered criminal acts.
