I went to a large state university and I didn't have any enforced lecture attendance (there were lots that it would have been really stupid to miss), and I had essentially zero supervised tutorial time (there were labs, but that can't be what you mean, and there were office hours, but there was never a requirement to attend).
I like how given the current state of scientific knowledge either way is pretty much fantasy, but one is apparently more believable.
Oh, it could happen that the web shooters are located entirely conveniently and don't worry much about metabolism, but it could never be that he gained the knowledge/insight to build them.
Survivability usually relates to how much the car extends the deceleration of your body, not to how much relative momentum the car has (the relative momentum is a factor, but not the only one; sagging into a seatbelt is quite a lot gentler than bouncing off the dash, without any need to worry about the external dynamics).
You would need to translate them to an absolute scale (Kelvin or Rankine) to do a really meaningful comparison, but I would hope that most people that read English would be able to at least translate the temperatures into "pretty hot" and "a whole bunch hotter".
Even then, the temperatures may be less interesting than the amount of energy required to bring the materials to those temperatures (but adding energy at lower temperatures is probably easier).
Note that the 17% comes from the average effective rate paid by the 4th quintile, so by definition, at least 60% of households pay less than 17% taxes (and, on average, 80% of households pay much less than that).
There is a reason Steve Forbes loves the fair tax, and it isn't because he thinks he needs to contribute more.
You are describing the legal process, the President is free to draft legislation and find someone to shill if for him, which is essentially what happens for the budget (except the finding and the shilling are pretty much codified).
Gary Cole enjoys a good deal more fame as Lumberg. He was also the voice of Harvey Birdman in the Cartoon Network series, and of various characters on Family Guy.
But $50 million isn't really that much compared to $150 billion. I guess there could be thousands and thousands of executives that get million dollar bonuses, but I doubt it.
I imagine they probably decided that the 'neat' was more important than a couple of extra page changes (I think the battery lasts for more than 1,000 page changes).
Apple could have done things in such a way that out of the box, iPhones only worked with the Apple store, but through some process or another, other apps stores could be added (perhaps by installing an app from Apple's app store, giving Apple some level of control, but balancing it with user needs).

The top 1% by income pay about 31% of federal taxes, not more than 40%. And GP was talking about the top 1% by wealth.

This was ~10 years ago.
I liked the ethos, but I didn't like the machine that boiled thousands of gallons of water at a distance without boiling the hero.

Never mind that the flat tax rate would have to be less than 17% to benefit most people at lower incomes (people that usually don't have much wealth):

Why did you link the same story 3 times?
Cadmium melts at about 600 F. Iron melts at about 2,800 F.
I don't know, it isn't a terrible way to describe a star.
Would you stick to that position if you were burning in a cleansing nuclear fire?
You are welcome to wonder all you want, the impact will still be negligible when you finish up.
Your are supposed to hide the heirloom watch up your butt, not eat it.
It is a better television show than either TOS or TNG, but it isn't as Star Trekky.

In your last paragraph, do you mean to imply that people running Windows are forced to trust Microsoft?
Forward compatibility is a pretty big carrot.
He looks embarrassed, but I don't think he looks all that pissed.
Probably not, having an extensive understanding of 'normal tools' would likely allow him to utilize them.
What does most mean? Here are Ford's income statements, it sure doesn't look like most of anything is going to executives:

Alan Mulally does appear to get quite a lot of money each year:

That article says that they had 12 bit color at 83 ppi. The kindle is something like 170 ppi.
So it was probably more expensive, looked bad compared to displays with better color depth, and it wasn't very crisp.
Changing to the image and then back to the text does use some power though, which I think is what the GP meant.
