No word on what they'd use for thermal protection on re-entry
IOn the website it currently suggests the will use excess hydrogen to cool to the surfaces and dump in over board.
They hydrogen will at that point become superheated and immediately react with any oxygen in the rather thin air up there... At least this is what I hope would happen, because it would look awesome on re-entry.
Ok ok, lets lay off the "best games ever made" rhetoric. There are at least 2 posts on this thread where you are claiming this. I agree with what you are saying, but lets stay away from the absurdly subjective topic of "best game ever". It adds nothing but flame and controversy.
That being said, porting Source to Linux is almost a bigger deal than Steam. I think this will usher a new era of well produced indy games and cross-platform compatibility. (Presuming people can get their video drivers working.)
The way I remember it at my local canadian university, for engineering, was something like this.
10% international students, 90% reserved for citizens, 75% of which was reserved for in-province applicants, and 5% for Aboriginals. (give or take 5% on all of those, I'm a bit fuzzy).
Does it make a difference though, money wise? I presume the overall amount the university gets is roughly the same per student, just the govn't isn't subsidizing the foreign nationals. Maybe it's a flawed presumption.
So... 180%? I can see why your university is broke.
(just kidding, i realize the 75+5 is part of the 90)
I guess this means I should stop reading the ingredients in my food and trying to eat healthy and balanced. Don't want to be jailed for "practicing nutrition"
This law was sponsored by the Big Corn lobby and McDonalds.
You post to Slashdot regularly? You either are: a troll, a flamers, or someone that doesn't read the article. Posters that claim to read the article are making shit up. Who thinks this stuff up?
This is really #1 question mark that pops up upon reading the story. Why is she not going to police with this? If it's such a clear cut case of long term stalking as she claims, it should be a no brainer to get police to look into it. This has a strong whiff of publicity stunt. She claims he's openly sending child pornography to multiple people and that "police/FBI won't investigate". Now I don't know where she lives, but considering current hysteria in the West about child pornography, I find this very hard to believe.
Also, reading the stuff on the other site, she appears to actively engage in conversations with this stalker on her own. Very strange considering that police would recommend to not engage in any contact with such a stalker.
This stinks of something big and important to the whole picture is being intentionally obfuscated by complaining party.
Just like the police caught the Pitt bomb threat person. Oh wait, they haven't.
I seem to only drink Kirin at sushi restaurants so I don't expect to rushing out for it. However, if this was available for my favorite beer then I might give it a try.
While I like the 90 minute IPA, I think that the 120 minute IPA might make a better beer slushie (if you could get it to freeze smoothly).
And completely crush the flavor of the beer in the process. If you don't like hops, why pay 12 dollars a bottle for this beer.
Some craft brewers are printing a recommended serving temperature, which I think is a great idea.
They would be like whiskey rocks, I assume. They're rocks (or sometimes metal cubes) that you freeze and drop into drinks you don't want diluted.
Whiskey isn't carbonated, so this would likely result in an explosion of foam. If the metal ones were smooth enough it might not, but that also might hamper their effectiveness. Also, the stone ones (like the ones I have) are usually a soft stone like soapstone, that wont damage the glass when dropped in. I guess the metal ones would have rounded edges.
But the real answer is for people to step up from pisswater beers that don't need to be right at freezing to be drinkable.:)
There's a reason JWs don't celebrate birthdays. Both mentions of birthdays in the Bible, one in the Hebrew Scriptures and one in the Greek Scriptures, ended up with the birthday boy ordering someone's execution. See Genesis 40:20-22 and Mark 6:21-27.
So the lesson is... people with birthdays are assholes?

I will assume that Japan signed the Kyoto treaty. I suppose this means they are throwing it away at this point.

Fire.
If you leave a hole, it will be exploited.
Yeah, by the TSA.

If you didn't hear that in Don LaFontaine's voice you are a bad person.

Know any good jokes?
Before reading the GP I can tell you.... no.
But not due to faster than light travel, rather, because he posted it to slashdot.

...so take off all your... skin?
I think you mean "so have all your skin rubbed off".
Yowch.
Friction: the hottest way to undress.
...there is never an under-estimation reported.
Say what again?

Well .. with the sink shipping - I'd say he probably wasn't the best admiral .. (it can be hard keeping those boatswains and seamen focused)
I do find it admirable though - that they managed to keep that naval blue uniform with khakis afloat for so long
I know they sold dishwashers, but now they are throwing the kitchen sink at us.
(yes, bumpers have damage resistance as a feature equal to or greater than safety)
Don't discount DR 5/+1, those 5's it reduces build up over time.
What about ocean-front property in Arizona? I've got lots of that and treasure maps too.
I have a bridge in Arizona to sell you.
Might be granny and auntie christmas purchase marketing. "the $60 game must be better than the $30 game... I'll buy junior the $30 game"
Thanks /. for the post editing button.... not
Or your Auntie or Granny just doesn't like you much.
Collusion is illegal.
Well, thanks there, Capt. Obvious... hard to recognize you without the cape, lol.
One would think Captain Obvious would always be easy to recognize.
The joke in the title blows.
The particular mix of metals is pretty much unique to pennies, so they will know exactly where the ingot came from.
Also, who the fuck wants an ingot of zinc? I suppose the same idiots that cut copper pipe to sell for scrap would try this with pennies.
They should watch out for disgruntled employees. Fortunately a .22 isn't quite as dangerous during a spree.

So maybe there's hope for them yet.
Kids are afraid of math, that's been banned too.
