Which is why various other symbols are used depending on location. Red Crescent, Red Crystal (as you linked). Red Shield of David. I dunno about India and Sri Lanka's attempt to use the Red Swastika, which has unfortunate associations in other parts of the world.
I doubt there'll ever be a Red Pentagram for godess pagans. In the field, it'd be too much bother to check to see if it was point-up, point-down, or rotated slightly. ("Yikes! It's a medic of Eris coming to mind-fsck us, shoot to kill!")
Perhaps with exceptions for certain scientific sites (e.g. nasa.gov, any "national laboratories", etc.)
Keep in mind that Wiki has a policy against original research that hasn't been published elsewhere. Which is not to say that they couldn't contribute, but just that it would have to be done carefully:
The role of expert editors
"No original research" does not mean that experts on a specific topic cannot contribute to Wikipedia. On the contrary, Wikipedia welcomes experts. We assume, however, that someone is an expert not only because of their personal and direct knowledge of a topic, but because of their knowledge of published sources on a topic. This policy prohibits expert editors from drawing on their personal and direct knowledge if such knowledge is unverifiable. If an expert editor has published the results of his or her research elsewhere, in a reputable publication, the editor can cite that source while writing in the third person and complying with our NPOV policy. They must cite publications, and may not use their unpublished knowledge as a source of information (which would be impossible to verify).
Otherwise, we hope expert editors will draw on their knowledge of other published sources to enrich our articles. However, such experts do not occupy a privileged position within Wikipedia.

In addition, Borland announced today that we will be divesting our IDE product lines, driving even tighter focus on the ALM market. These product lines include our award-winning Borland Developer Studio (Delphi, C++ Builder and C# Builder) and JBuilder. Our intent is to create a standalone business focused on the IDE market, capable of investing in the opportunities that exist for these product lines and advancing developer productivity. Borland's IDE business requires a distinct business model and focused investments different from our ALM business, which targets the broader software delivery organization. We believe that separating these businesses will enable both to flourish and grow more aggressively through targeted focus and investment. It goes without saying that we will do everything possible to ensure a successful transition of our products and customers to the new entity. [..]
Sensors detect a reality distortion field in operation, but.. it might work.
437.8 MHz is fairly quiet here, so I added it to my RS-2006. I don't suppose there's any online sites for predicting a pass over a given location? (I know there are Windows programs and downloadable orbit parameters, but that's way too much work.:^)
Just reading the buzzspeak in the article makes me want to toss my cookies!
Nielsen explained some of the planning that went into his decision.
"I've been here for 75 days, and one of the things I did early on is I set up 100 one-on-ones with various people in the company to find out what was going on," he said.
"And one of the things that I found was the core management team before I got here spent a lot of time laying the ground work for what Borland needs to do. And in addition to spending time with employees I spent time with customers. And whenever I talked to customers they said the weakest link in every IT organization is the dysfunctional software development process. No one's really solved that."
Of Segue, Nielsen said, "They have great products in the quality space. We talk about software delivery optimization, they talk about software quality optimization."
"Great products in the quality space" BLLAAAAAAARRRPHHH!!!!
I'd hope they'd learned their lesson the last time they veered off-course. They brought in new management and changed the company back from the forgettable "Inprise" buzzword, but there they go again.
It must be the spirit of Phillipe Khan that drives them to cyclic madness.
And that's just one side's opinion. We have to present opinions from both sides for a fair and balanced viewpoint. A bunch of lefty darwinist university administrators have a theory that says that he doesn't have a degree, and a hard-working young man says he does. Who are you going to believe?
The content developers are spending a fortune constructing and maintaining the internet content that Verizon intends to ride on with nothing but cheap networks
Anyone have a handy list of all of Verizon's netblocks so web sites can ban them (or set up an extra charge system) if they so chose?

If there are two sides to every issue, what's on the other side from the big bang theory? Will NASA have to adopt an "equal time for the steady state theory" policy?
The whole idea that some group's pet mythology is the (only) other side of the cosmology issue isn't even false dichotomy (the contrived limiting to two choices). It's not even a choice.
NASA should deal with SCIENCE or just pack it up and go home (might be for the best, considering their track record in the last 30 years). Leave the sky-gods to the theologians.
That's not the problem. The problem is that the burning bush worshipers won't leave the science alone.
While not advantageous to short-term career prospects, I think the correct response to Deutsch would be something along the lines of "Hey fishboi, bite me!"

I hope you wear latex gloves when you hand them that list.
Wow, I feel so James Burke-ish.

I've seen COBOL written in Pascal. The horror, the horror...

That and it looks a lot like Frank Borland, one of the founders and developer of most of their code examples.
It's life, but not as we know it.

So it's okay if I skip a card and chocolates on her birthday now and then, right?
Huh! That Darwin guy probably had a degree in the liberal arts.

Hmm, waazat? I thought I heard an anonymous troll squeeking something. Oh well, couldn't have been important.

Yeah, since Ramens do everything in (at least) threes.
And never ever preceed it with a royal proclamation of "Hey! Watch this!"
"Both sides"? It's Raman spectroscopy, so I'm sure that the Noodly One wants a word too.
