They need to be specific, this applies to ADHD-H. This does not apply to ADHD-I and is questionable with ADHD-C. I have ADHD-I and I have the problem that my eyes get sore from hyperfocusing to the extent that my body forgets to blink.
Besides, they already have a definitive diagnosis. A brain scan. Aside from the very obvious differences in brain wave patterns, the structure of the brain is physically different. ADHD-H will show the centre of the brain growing at an accelerated rate compared to the other areas of the brain. ADHD-I will show under development of the frontal and/or temporal lobes and a noted size difference in the rear of the brain (something on the right side rear is smaller)... I'm totally not awake so all the appropriate terms and thoughts in general aren't coming to me...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?... --this lecture talks about it... it's split into a bunch of random pieces so I don't know which one the ADHD-I brain portion is in... that or there's a 3 hour video with it all (I think it's the same lecture)
LOL - you're absolutely right. I just did a quick Google search for the Las Lajas river to see where it was and every search I did kept coming up with that image. My bad. Las Lajas section wouldn't be too bad then. The Brito end of it might trash a nice beach at most. My point stands overall though.
Honestly, I find my buggiest code is the easiest crap that I'm just not paying attention to. The moment I have a solid challenge my interest peaks and getting it singing perfectly is the only acceptable end result. It may take a few tries but it's what I thrive on. I'm my least productive and most careless on the routine pointless tasks.
"However, there are doubts around the world about the Nicaragua Canal project, mainly focusing on its engineering difficulty and funding during the construction phase and the economic viability after completion."
I said it would be comparatively cheaper. Panama Canal cost about $59/cubic metre excavated. Nicaragua Canal will be $10/cubic metre excavated if the estimates hold.
Panama didn't have the benefit of the massive machines available now. It will likely be much cheaper compartitively.
What I find interesting is the complete disregard for some amazing sites. Las Lajas River has this: http://www.beautifulplacesguid... three of the four proposed routes for the 3rd section head through a national reserve. The shortest route of course splits the reserve in half. http://www3.varesenews.it/imma...
Another question to ask is, why was someone at google looking at someone's personal email account?
I suspect they weren't. They probably have an agreement with the police where their image matching algorithms are used to compare known child porn images against images sent to/from gmail and as they crawl the web.

Yes, and the typical engine development costs about $5 billion - granted this is much cheaper now thanks to 3D printing.
If they can build the power train + fuel cell for under $50,000 they'll probably be selling them at cost but for a run of no more than 10,000 vehicles that's actually pretty good for this stage of development. I'd think they'll have a mass production + profitable model within the next 3-7 years. Don't know if they'll be worth it due to the cost of fuel and the fact that natural gas is the cheapest method of producing said fuel - that's going to be a bigger stumbling block than making the car profitable.
The proposal does call for a "ramp up" period where the sounds get louder and louder. Unfortunately, studies in Scotland found that fish are attracted to the noise from air cannons (no data on mammals)
- A 1kt nuclear explosion is 300-310db re 1 Pa at 1m
- A seismic air cannon is 264-270db re 1 Pa at 1m
- Whales can go anywhere from 108 to 225b re 1 Pa at 1m
Looking at that without any context one might think it's no big deal. Except that for every 6db you're doubling the pressure.
240db re 1 Pa at 1m is 100% lethal to fish and mammals up to 125m, permanent hearing loss on all trauma frequencies to >50% of fish/mammals to a range of 900m and causes some permanent hearing damage up to 1.5km (McAnuff and Booren, 1976; Yelverton and Richmond, 1981; Phillips et al., 1989: Richmond et al., 1989; Myricket ai., 1989)
Genre Fiction in books sell 10:1 vs general fiction/literature.
Using your argument though, most popular TV shows according to that wiki list vs highest rated on IMDB - only 1 title shows up in both lists: Friends. Same for IMDB's "movie meter", same applies to the "finale" list as well.
Take the example of Firefly, amazing critical response, 9.2 imdb rating (#23 by user rating, #28 by number of votes, etc), an absolute fanatic fanbase that actually got the show to break Amazon's top 30 dvd sales list 196 weeks after release.
Average viewers? 4.7 million - 98th on the Nielsen list. Cancelled before the first season ended.
Meanwhile NCIS, one of the most predictable middle of the road bore fests gets 17 million average viewers 11 seasons, 2 spinoff series (5 seasons of NCIS:LA averaging 16.5 million viewers) all 3 are ongoing.
Mediocre crap sells because it's cheap to produce, easy to market (cause people know what they're getting), and easy to keep churning out.
You buy a $50k SUV, you pay $10,500 less in taxes in year 1 and in year 2 ~$3,500 less (using Rogers example). In year 3 it's depreciated value is $10k and you sell it for $35k paying 15% capital gains - your effective cost for those 3 years (excluding other factors) is $7,500. Doing that exact thing with a car the 3 year cost is $15,250 due to the difference in depreciation.
Usually though you're going to be buying another vehicle and you'll be able to depreciate again so that $10,500 will offset the $5,250 in capital gains nicely.
Citation? Only thing about the cost of the FCV I can find is that it's reduced the cost of production of the power train + fuel cell by 95% from the first model.
That it happens all the time - it's just the way governments do business without actually changing the standard tax rate which is a lot more problematic politically.
It's not misleading, my point wasn't that SUVs got a bigger tax break than cars, it was that the US government uses your tax dollars to subsidize auto purchases. There have been smaller ones for plugin vehicles and hybrids as well.
Not even big musicians ever got $10-$15. Artists typically would get anywhere from 8 to 14 percent and major stars would get 20 percent of album sales. Even after inflation adjustments you're only talking about $5 per album at the high end. What happened was album prices went down - If albums stayed in line with inflation they'd be $100 per album now. http://theunderstatement.com/p...
Book prices are going the opposite direction! A mass market paperback in 1975 cost $1.35, adjusted for inflation that's about $5.97. The average mass market price now? Around $8. 25% higher. The issue with books is that publishers create these insane contracts to allow them to suck every last penny out before cutting a royalty cheque. So if you take the adjusted amount a 1975 author could typically expect $0.59 per copy sold, today's author should be able to expect $0.80 per copy sold right? In reality because of the contract loopholes they end up getting at most $0.32 per copy sold.
So authors are typically being payed 60-70% less than in 1975. In addition to this the number of titles published per year has skyrocketed - 135,000 titles are published every year now. That's a lot of competition just within the industry let alone competing for peoples most valuable thing: time. There's going to be a major contraction in the book market to correct for this regardless of what Amazon does.

There are highly trained generalists who lack humility and don't make fools of themselves. They're the rarest of individuals but they do exist. ;)
Why do they want to kill my password? What's wrong with "@13 unicorn #DARPA gangbang!"? It's secure isn't it?

Wasn't implying they didn't use the biggest/best... just meant that the definition of that has changed a lot over the years.
Somebody didn't read the article:

Disregard the above, misinformed comment. mea culpa
Even if you didn't use AdBlock, HTTPS Everywhere takes care of it very nicely.
Probably are - higher due to transmission through water but comparable.
wow, who knew boobs could be so controversial

Speaking strictly in terms of pressure:

130kg @ 300m is 286db at source, 199db at 20km. So no, your typical 200lbs depth charge will not come anywhere near this insanity.
