....that Scotland has the highest concentration of UFU sightings...
sure Scotland sees a lot of UFUs, but what about UFOs? Everyone knows UFOs always visit the trailerparks of the southeast US with greater frequency, weather permiting....not easy to abduct people while a tornado is destroying their home and plastic pink flamingo lawn ornaments....
maybe ebay's health insurance costs for its own staff is being subsidized by their power sellers. Now ebay has zero health insurance costs, and a huge pool, meaning that a few sick employees, won't raise the rates....
Moby had an incredibly successful album (though not his first), and just like many first novelists, his next one is judged by a much higher standard.
if moby wants to be successful, he needs to top himself. if he can't do that, well he should have realized that by licensing every damn song on his album Play, he basically has permanently saturated every one with his sound. We're sick of it.
Also, the thing that RIAA fears most about P2P is that people will be able to hear the whole album before they buy it, and many times, since commercial music sucks, people who like the single they hear on the radio, realize that the other 7 or 8 songs on the album suck.
Here's the master replica website in case you want to actually see the official replica saber, complete with a quicktime movie demo of one in action.... at least it satisfied my curiosity while the park sabers site is being slashdotted.
The creator of the Smurfs was Belgian, btw, they weren't created by Hanna Barbera.
As shown in this: fan site and the official site, you can clearly see that they communal ideal shown in the Smurfs is not Soviet Communism at all, but rather European Socialism.
I know that a few years ago when I lived in austin tx, a major label (warner, I believe) threatened to stop selling their music to a very large indie record store (chain of one) if they continued to sell used music. Management looked at their used sales profits vs their profits from the sales of the new CDs from this label... and gave them the finger, and started buying anything they need from that label from a distro house instead of direct (5% difference in price).
Less than a year later, the new regional sales rep came to their buyers trying to convince them to host in-stores and buy direct again.
Seems to me that someone in management accidentally sent their wishlist to the PR dept.
but if you used cingular, could your hop conduct through att wireless phones, or even better, would one of the companies program them to use up their competitors' phones first?
seems like most the the "thirsty" are more likely to be unwashed than the "carpet baggers". I have never met a knowledge junky who wouldn't forgo a bath in order to a get a piece of hardware or code working.
I have always thought of it this way: if you are worth a 50% pay increase to keep, why didn't they offer you a salary increase on their own initiative? I have always regretted staying with the old firm when I have accepted a counter offer.
It's the american way: "take this job and shove it"
when you take a new job, it is always a dice roll. but think about this: once you accept the counter offer, when will it be likely that they offer you another increase?
Actually, I think that if you read the Yahoo article carefully, it says
"...many of the sites were able to start up again on other servers, while the task force continued to copy computerized information on Thursday. The office remained sealed off by FBI agents."
Starting up on another server is not nearly the same as "coming back online, fair and square".

I can see the headlines in CNN tomorrow:
"HACKER" WEBSITE ORGANIZES DENIAL OF SERVICE ATTACK ON ONLINE BOOKSELLER
Hrm. Or maybe it will be on CNET first.
As a web designer, I found that Designing Web Usability by Jakob Nielsen and HTML: The Complete Reference are both vital references, and, of course the aforementioned Design of Everyday Things has always been one of my favorite reads.

don't forget about radio serials (ie soap operas) and movie serials: flash gordon was a staple of the movie-going public in the 40's and 50's.
