From what I can tell, USB 2.0 defines a maximum bulk transfer rate of 6656 useful bytes per microframe. 8000 microframes per second yields 50.7 Megabytes/second.
Apparently, that's also why Word, Wordstar, WordPerfect, DisplayWrite and Framemaker all have used the.doc extension for their proprietary file formats.
Matlab and octave use.m files for scripting. Objective C class files also use.m. It's annoying when xcode opens up matlab files, but an editor suitable for working with matlab files is suboptimal for Objective C files. Yes, I know emacs supports objective C, but xcode is easier to work with.
Probably for aesthetic reasons. Apple should have specced shatter proof glass. In fact, that's probably why the laptops were left unsecured in the store-- to tempt people into visiting during normal working hours.
Most people who buy laptops aren't going to be tethered to a desk. A big honking security cage or even a simple security cable prevents a prospective buyer from getting a feel for how portable the laptop is. Perhaps Apple should follow the lead of jewelry stores, and lock up its merchandise after hours. To be fair, most jewelry stores are designed with this closing procedure in mind, whereas most at most Apple stores, the laptops would have to be stored in back room-- which may not be more secure in any meaningful way
Since using coal releases about 20x more CO2 than fossil fuels and will not run out for hundreds of years even assuming increasing demand, this is bad news for stopping the use of fossil fuels based on economic reasons.
The Medal of Honor has not been awarded to any living persons in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, only posthumously. In addition, the percentage of persons receiving the medal in these wars has been significantly lower than in previous wars (one out of a million vs. one out of one-hundred thousand). The Army Times published an article analyzing the awards in its March 30, 2009 issue.It was suggested that because of the intense partisan politics in Washington, D.C. over these wars, the Bush Administration subjected potential Medal of Honor recipients to intense background checks so as to avoid scrutiny, from political opponents, of both the administration and the recipient. An Army Times editorial suggested, "Our heroes deserve to be recognized."
The first intel macs came with OS X 10.4.4. If you only own 10.0 (cheetah), 10.1 (puma), 10.2 (jaguar), or 10.3 (panther), then you probably don't own a intel mac, and can't run 10.6 anyway.
IIRC, there are factions of the church that favor the latin mass, because it's more akin to magic--"the mystery of the church." I suppose that if a kid wants to eat, and is willing to sit through the mumbo-jumbo, he might eventually grow to like the mumbo-jumbo of the church and become a practicing Catholic, if not a completely conscious one. A warm body. If that's what the church wants, so be it.
If the kid is really, truly hungry (in a non spiritual sense), he'd do better to have real meal instead of consecrated wafers. And a priest would do well to sate that hunger with real nutrition.
first holy communion(aged 7) where after you can eat all the little wafers as much as you like then
A child who eats as many wafers as he pleases is not aware of the essential difference between "the bread of the eucharist" and ordinary bread, and is therefore ill equipped to receive communion.
1. The age of discretion, both for Confession and for Holy Communion, is the time when a child begins to reason, that is about the seventh year, more or less. From that time on begins the obligation of fulfilling the precept of both Confession and Communion.
2. A full and perfect knowledge of Christian doctrine is not necessary either for First Confession or for First Communion. Afterwards, however, the child will be obliged to learn gradually the entire Catechism according to his ability.
3. The knowledge of religion which is required in a child in order to be properly prepared to receive First Communion is such that he will understand according to his capacity those Mysteries of faith which are necessary as a means of salvation (necessitate medii) and that he can distinguish between the Bread of the Eucharist and ordinary, material bread, and thus he may receive Holy Communion with a devotion becoming his years....
Seriously, wtf is this Western obsession with the Falun Gong?
About fifteen or twenty years ago, some US newspaper columnists were comparing them (somewhat favorably) to the "Society of Righteous and Harmonious Fists". I'm not sure whether this comparison was original, or derived from CCP communiques. In the spirit of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend", FG became somewhat celebrated.
On one hand, you have fundamentalist athiests in charge of Western media who take every opportunity to attack and discredit any religion, much less crazy cults like Scientology or Raelism.

I'm still willing to wager that the large majority of Symbian users don't even know what Symbian is, or think it's some kind of extreme sex toy.
That's the Sybian.

The Acer 3000LMi is the Ferrari of notebooks. Apple laptops don't go "VROOM VROOM" when you start them up. The Acer does.

Huh? Coal is a fossil fuel.

If you're going to criticize a religion for being inconsistent, then you might as well get the details right...

"Western media" is hardly homogenous.
