Why should I go to a movie theator if it's just a giant screen TV set? I'll wait for it to hit HBO or rent the DVD and get the same experience with my 10 foot screen and PowerPoint projector. I remember when movies were a lush fusion of colors on the screen and not a bunch of pixels you can count by the foot. That's really what's behind the movie slump. The TV set really did kill off the theator chain.
11a. Incoming grad student class decides to join labs doing bleeding edge research as evidenced by number of Science and Nature articles group publishes.
11b. Tenured professor can't understand why he's scraping the bottom of the barrel and begging students to join his group.
12. Poor choices in student TA's leaves his research with gaping holes.
13. Tenured professor loses grants. All his students have to teach again. This includes post orals student struggling to finish thesis.
14. Tenured professor realizes politics of publishing are extremely important to academic survival.
With the NIH insisting on open access to any papers published on research they've funded and a general call by scientists to open up free access to older journals we'll be seeing a change in the journal system of publishing very shortly. With electronic publishing of the text alongside the paper copies there's really no reason not to open peer review up to everyone who reads the article.
I think that any paper that meets a journals criteria should be put online and any interested party can vote as to the merits of the piece. The best and most interesting papers will become featured and the worse will be put to the back of the que. Papers that are so far advanced that their merits aren't recognized for years will have the option of becoming featured when they meet a threshold of other papers citing them. Papers that become seminal can be bound once each year for more perminant archiving. Nothing is lost in this system and no paper is rejected because one or two reviewers are jealous or don't quite understand the authors intent.
Could you elaborate a little more? What system are you running it on? Memory size? Processor? Has anything slowed down, ie boot time, startup for individual titles etc.?
Yes they could have made that judgment call themselves. They could have taken his name and address and if the bills were counterfeit they could issue a warrant for his arrest. If they were real they could forget about it.
When I was a kid I wanted to be a cop badly. So when highschool came around they gave us some aptitude test that was supposed to tell us what our future careers should be. I filled out the career survey saying I'd like to be a police officer. When my test came back it suggested I be a doctor. It specifically recommended I not be a cop as I'd likely be bored sitting in a cruiser late at night. So I thought about it and decided I'd most likely be bored driving a cop car aimlessly around town. Anyway, if you're smart you probably are steared away from becoming a law enforcement officer in school.
How reliable do you think it is for someone at the border to have to check each and every ID to make sure it matches one of the 50 valid formats that we have?
I'm guessing it's as hard as it is for a doorman at any big city bar to look in the 50 states ID book. Heck, the book that ABCC in Massachusetts issued even included Canadian provinces.
You're preaching to the choir here. I know for a fact that owning a boat doesn't mean wealth. I lived aboard mine for 2 years to keep from losing it. I had the choice of rent or the boat. I chose the boat. Those same folk who have no problem taxing pleasure craft would flip out if the cable bill went up $2. Unfortunately we live in a nation of people who think that if they don't do something it should be ok to tax others who do.
In many harbors you have two choices to get out to your boat. It doesn't matter if you have a $1000 Cal 20 or a $3million dollar Trumpy. You can row a small pram that you lug back and forth to the water yourself. The other option is to join the yacht club for their launch service. Now to he odds of someone rowing out to a Feadship are very slim and that little 30+ year old sailboat probably is connected to one of those prams left tied the docks. But somewhere in the middle the guy who drives an 8 year old Corolla so he can afford a Beneteau 30 probably doesn't mind paying an extra few grand so he doesn't have to skull himself back to shore after PHRF racing on Saturday afternoon.
The social hit comes more from being away from people his own age if he doesn't follow the herd to college. He'll be, what, 18 surrounded by working stiffs and too young to go out with them. The college crowd will naturally look down on him as a townie for falling behind. It's a no win situation.
I think a lot of the Macs stability and resistance to hacking is due as much to the fact that the OS and the Hardware com from the same source. So market share is what's touted as the reason no one bothers to hack a Mac but that can't compare to the OS being seamlessly integrated to work with just one kind of processor.
If you don't go right away do something like CityYear or another kind of job with a built in ending. Otherwise you run the risk of staying too long and never going to school. My "just for a year so I can decide what to do" job lasted 7 years. I would have stayed too but there was no room for further advancement without a college degree. Also, expect your social life to take a huge hit if you don't follow your age group to college.
I just switched to a Mac PowerBook after getting a blue screen of death on another year old pc laptop. So even though I'm leaving thousands of dollars of PC software behind and need to purchase everything on the Mac I feel reborn. Like a refugee from a wartorn village seeing Manhattan for the first time I stand in awe of the shiny sky scrapers and know that I am touching the face of god.
The article is short on useable facts like what cars this is good for. I doubt it'll be available for my car. None of these tuner or chip gadgets ever are.
Clearly showing a fundimental misunderstanding about how the internet works should be a huge warning flag that management doesn't understand the world they're working in.
Why would anyone need to deep link to a gum that keeps your teeth clean anyway?

Wasted away again in Daquritaville. A Captain Bartman Original. Because Jimmy Buffet uncooly charges people for the rights to his songs.
You mean I actually have to pay my employees?
Why would you be using a wintel box if you're working for Apple? The box will be in the OS so Word for Macintosh wouldn't rat you out.
LUG? Lesbians Until Graduation? Is there nothing those phoney dikes can't handle?

This will work just fine until the first case of Norwalk Virus shows up.
