metro rapid bus lines shoots down sepulveda & 405 from northridge to ucla and beyond. there's a light rail extension under construction that will extend the expo line from culver city to colorodo and fourth street in santa monica. this is a straight shot from downtown. speaking of downtown, metro orange line and metrolink orange line straight shot from west valley to downtown. see, there are plenty of options.
well, you're exactly right. if your word file is a grocery list, then it doesn't matter if its.txt,.docx, or whatever. But when your files start to get extraordinarily complex (hundred+ pages, tables, figs, headers, footnotes, track changes, comments), then translating from.docx to something else will be a mess and you might as well give up.
yeah, office 2011 and win 7 are really powerful tools. not sure what you mean by the collaboration features. we use sharepoint for version control and track changes.
The nightmare wrt google docs is writing a doc in word, passing it to google docs for somebody's editing, bouncing it back to word for other people's editing. all on the client side. The formatting would get so messed up!
As a consultant who works with govt often, I really really hope that microsoft wins this battle. Right now all our document production is office based, and if we need to account for an entirely new office suite (google docs) then it's another magnitude of (nonbillable) complexity.
dude, in LA you can ride metrolink, two subway lines, three light rail lines, and dozens of bus lines. Where are you going to/from? You mean city of LA, or bumfudge outlying town in LA county?
The linked article was interesting, but it didn't cover the most important question - what should I look for in the transit, and why should I be excited about it? I saw the solar eclipse from griffith observatory in LA, and it was awesome. Got some amazing pics of the sun being blotted out. But this sounds like it will just be a little blip on the sun. Will there be an opportunity for interesting pictures?
I hope that the dutch parliament can find the change to pass this resolution! It sounds like the parliament is coin-operated. Have they looked between the couch cushions?
You know what you call somebody who chooses to strategically fight a losing battle? loser. I prefer to let others fight the losing battles. I'll fight the winning battles, thank you very much. That's why I'm in the 1%.
I reject the assertion that yahoo is just a bag of bones. I know many people at the company, and they are some of the most creative, energetic programmers that I have met. All the new management team needs to do is unlock the potential that exists within their own staff.
so you're saying... you've found a convoluted system that may result in a system equivalent to what we currently have? that's progress! you should run for president!
yes, it's obviously a bad thing. i'm an academic and I want to know what the new research is! I don't care what the agglomerated opinion is of 10 year old research. I need a tool to be able to evaluate new research. I await your answer!

wow, I'm not sure how I could be modded down -1 redundant when I have fp! moderation fail. lash out much?

my phone has more DPI's than your phone! Burrn!
I loved my NES. Except for the part where I had to blow on the cartridges. Now I use OnLive cloud gaming, and I love that too.
wf? ArhcAngel == Archangel Michael? Companion accounts for mod points? bussted!
dude, i was just riffing on a typo. the intended meaning, which you repeat, is clear.
if they ever get the change to do so

Ask a 12 year old what Google is, then ask about Facebook. They ARE a bag of bones.

If you don't fight you can't win.
if you can't win, then don't fight! pick your battles.

yes but... how are you going to rank a new paper? You know, one that hasn't been cited yet? hmm? I await your response.
you're a douche.
also, if you tried to use the tractor beam on anything, it would evaporate.
so, a paper's worth would be determined by the number and quality of papers it cites? Then I'll have an easy time writing grade A papers!
the headline should have read, "Theory Behind Bessel Beam 'Tractor Beam' Concept Demonstrated in Lab'
Bessel Beam 'Tractor Beam' Concept Theoretically Demonstrated
theoretically demonstrated? does not compute... pc load letter... explode!
thanks for saying things more convincingly than I could. you should have inserted it into the top of the thread, so you got +5!
