If the US can get the dollar to equal or just below the euro, then why spend 1,000,000EUR when you can spend $928,000?
If you want to spend 1,000,000 EUR and all you have is USD then you'll have to put 1,200,000 USD on the table.
This is a good thing for the US 'cos it increases the price of imports from the EU, so reducing the amount of EU goods bought by US consumers, and it reduces the prices of US goods for EU consumers, 'cos we have those more valuable euros.
So the US should import less and export more. Some people think this is a good thing.
...vital it is to keep their populations from consuming more foreign than local goods for economic sanity's sake
And another idiot fails econ 101.
Hint: If someone wants to sell you something for less money than it takes you to make it: buy it from him!. Use the money you've saved to do something more interesting.
Sounds like a guidance failure rather than an engine failure
People who bother to read the article will see:
Preliminary analysis indicates that the most probable cause for the observed flight behavior is that part of the engine's graphite exit outer ring experienced excessive and asymmetric erosion, which in turn created a side thrust component.
The process of burning is the process of changing combinations of atoms (molecules) from a high energy state to a lower energy state. Thus, you're playing with the weak nuclear force,
Ding! Sorry, no score, same player play again.
All chemical (molecular) reactions are electromagnetic.
That's where the idea of "smart matter" comes from (make fake "chemicals" by manipulating electrons with no "atomic" nucleus).
Huh, I played half-life 1 on a P1 233 with software rendering, no hw 3d support at all.
Worked great.
Got a bit dodgy with some of the later mods (the mad rotating boat trip in Heart of Evil:-)), but now I've got a hugely poweful PIII 700Mhz all is ok again.
(cue 3 Yorkshiremen sketch. By the way, I was born in Dewsbury:)).
Anyone can copyright a work derived from something in the public domain.
In fact, since copyright is automatic unless disclaimed, any derirative work of something in the public domain is copyright unless the author (of the derirative work) says otherwise.
You could argue that "small" changes might not be copyrightable.

Look, 1.00 EUR == 1.20 USD.
If you have something priced at 1,000,000 EUR you will have to spend 1,200,000 USD to buy it.
If you have something priced at 1,000,000 USD then you will have to spend 1,000,000 USD to buy it and I can spend 833,333 EUR to buy the same thing.
Where on earth you get the 928,000 USD figure from I cannot imagine.

Looks a lot more like they're trying to keep the price of the dollar down, to cut imports and increase exports.
P.S., unless you're a FORTRAN programmer it's called the euro.
WMD's as well.
Next quetion?
Yup, I can just see it. The only place he can think of sticking his "hard disk" is into a PDA.
Sad.
You want to stick a nine and a half inch disk drive into a PDA?
Omaha? You mean a bloody disaster? Most of the dead never having a chance to fire a shot, dying in the water without even reaching the beach?
Wouldn't you rather have Sword? Gold? Even Juno or Utah?
What are you, some kind of lame brain like old Albert?
Just go with many worlds & there's nothing hard about QM at all. Well, appart from the math of course.

Gotta light, Mac?
No, but I do have a dark brown overcoat.
Hah! I was at UEA 26 years ago, and here I am reading slashdot.
Might as well kill yourself now, you have nothing to look forward to.
Well, yes, of course.
Next question?

That should be 587, not 2525.
(Or 465 for broken clients that start TLS without
doing a STARTTLS command).
If Microsoft had removed it from later versions of Windows that would have been stupid.
Since they didn't remove it from Windows...
Sure sounds like an engine failure to me.
The name "electron" gives you no clue?
Maybe you'd better check out what the weak force is.
Not many W or Z bosons involved in chemical reactions.
Ah, in your alternate universe you load compressed springs into the tank instead of an inflamible liquid?
Here we use chemical energy, that's to say the electromagnetic force, to produce heat, that causes a gas to expand, that produces mechanical force.
Less direct, but easier to manage than carting all those compressed springs around.
No.

What's not English about naive (naif)? What's not English about cooperative (imagine the trema over the second "o").
AND THIS SHITTY SLASHCODE SOFTWARE WON'T LET ME DO IT RIGHT.
Naive. (Na(i-trema)ve)
Nave. (Naïve.)
Nave. (Naïve.)
Who wrote this shitty code anyway?
If you're going to pick nits it's naive, or possibly naif.
You can't write English in ascii.
No, I think you are mistaken.

And so how is it that the only credible example of stolen code in Linux came from someone working for SGI?
