Most cell phone batteries (motorola experience here) are 3.7v @ around 700mah. USB charging (5v@500ma) would be plenty for them, assuming the phone isn't being used at the time (for talking.)
Sounds to me like they're using a modified pinout on the connecting devices as well, right? That would be the only way they'd want to use a cable in that configuration....
But then - maybe the echos on the wire will make the digital signal sound closer to analog, which is the goal all along!!! [/sarcasm]
Per your link: Geeesh! What did they add to this car that added 600 pounds? And adding a 2.4l to the mix (your year has a 1.5 or 1.3???) in addition to the weight are two reasons why you'd get less milage....
My wife bought a Ford Freestyle about a year ago. It replaced a 2wd F150 that got 14mpg or so in her daily driving; now she gets around 20 in mixed driving. Has a CVT in it - kinda weird to not have it shift.
Anyways, my point is that I always tease her that it's a station wagon. If you squint your eyes just right, you can see the lineage there. It's got a fold down seat in the back - shame it doesn't have one facing the wrong way with a roll down rear window! But - it's definitely more utilitarian than our truck ever was, since it allows her to store things inside the vehicle.
We used the truck maybe twice in four years for our own uses; other friends borrowed the truck countless times. It just comes down to what you need.....
I've had weak fuel pumps show the same symptoms. If I went around a corner in my first car (88 cavalier) without more than 1/4 tank, it would sputter and die. No holes in the fuel pickup, just an almost-out-of-spec fuel pressure coming from the pump. I can only think that it was on it's last legs.
It died within a few months of this first happening; new fuel pump cleared it all up.
Will aliens get convicted of circumventing CSS I wonder.......
I was just thinking how we humans have a hard enough time gathering equipment to read popular data formats from 30 years ago - if DVDs go the same way, why bother?
I saw that this was released on their website - and to be honest, didn't know it was out for PC and Xbox360. I knew there was the Xbox version, but anyways... I downloaded the dmo and played it for a little bit.
It seems like there are a lot of inventory items that I picked up that I just don't remember what they all do. My mind kind of gets messy like that in Final Fantasy games too, so I guess I shouldn't let that get me down. However, the game seems pretty solid. Running at 1680x1050 gets a little stuttery on a 8800gt 512mb / core2duo 6600, oddly enough, but it doesn't detract from the game (mostly when cutscenes do full screen motion, like the intro.)
I must say I will probably buy this game, if only because of the humor involved. Normally this isn't my kind of game, but if you appreciate the humor that Penny Arcade puts into their comics, you'll be laughing as you play this game. Especially when you throw an orange to the FFrs. If there's more than one, while the one "hits it" the other one says something like "let me hit that":)
Actually, the problem I'm witnessing personally at work is that when one gets promoted within the same department, it isn't as clean of a break from the old job responsibilities as you might think. If the people who are doing your old job don't step up - and you're still in the same general area (even if your title/job duties change) - the old stuff comes with you, and it's your responsibility to make sure others grasp your job.
Granted, I am not complaining, as sometimes there's really no other way to do this. However, my personal grumble is that the others don't truly seem like they have the time - or the initiative - to step up as I did......
But they still complain about not being promoted. I can lead a horse to water with the best of them, though...
1. RS232 --> I work in the networking/telecom industry, and this is still alive and well as an interface. So much so I have a spare usb-->serial converter for laptops/desktops that don't have this port.
2. 1/8" stereo jack --> what? Other than cell phones that choose a smaller form factor of this (or an altogether different mini usb adapter etc) most headphones use the 1/8" headphone plug, except for the highest of the high end, which has 1/4".....
If I'm not mistaken, I believe that touring is actually the primary source of revenue for most artists.
And that's kind of what this is all about, in a weird way. The majority of money made from an album is directed towards the people who are not involved in "creating" the music; however much they may be involved in marketing or producing or shipping or mixing/developing the sound on the disc. Wal-mart is not looking to cut the mere pennies away from the artist - they're trying to push to have the other charges lessened through more efficient methods.
Of course, Wal-mart doesn't necessarily have to care how it's done; they just know it can be.
It took my coworkers a while, but they now understand that due to the "not-at-my-desk" nature of my work, leaving me a voicemail means I'll probably get it a week later. There's a better chance of them seeing me in a meeting at some point during the week than there is of me checking my voicemail and reacting to their requests...
So, I catch hell for it. But they understand now that an e-mail will get a better response (my laptop should be attached to me as much as I carry it....)
Actually, I'm not so sure that you're going to be lowering temperatures any significant amount (that whole law of thermodynamics and mass etc) but you do effectively increase the compression ratio in the cylinder by injecting water. Remember - water doesn't like to compress like air does, so it will take up more space when compressed than the air will. Upon the same bore/stroke of compression, the more water pumped in, the higher you stack the compression.

LED and DLP = projector I'm guessing.... even if it's rear projection.
And probably x4 of them, since the comments I see state that you can see the separation...
Only because Picard told you to.
I actually heard somewhere that the correct definitions is "a series of tubes." Some other junk about trucks in the tubes or something....
Sounds like a Spinal Tap drummer accident to me :)
Ok, ok, I fail.. :(
I would love to hear more information on specific pieces of your setup.... it'd be interesting to compare what might be needed for my own home!
Unfortunately for some, you've got to make Unreal Tournament 3 not suck so hard that they'd buy it even if it was available for Linux.

As far as bloated printer drivers go, I'd blame HP on that one.
Giving users the funtionality for their all in one inkjets at a remote office recently meant downloading a 300MB driver. On a T1.
The install takes just about as long.
I've got 2 nits to pick:
1. RS232 --> I work in the networking/telecom industry, and this is still alive and well as an interface. So much so I have a spare usb-->serial converter for laptops/desktops that don't have this port.

Switch out the Quarter Pounder with a Whopper with Cheese and you just might have something on the same track.
WHY WOULD YOU REMOVE IRC????
wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
non-caps non non non
A Quad-core xeon?
That's actually something I'd like to see - I'm assuming by DLP you mean projector?
