I chose that I am going to remain unsurprised if either view is right in the end, because the God I worship can work any way He wants.
If, in the end, the real answer is different than what we see today it will be science that reveals that. Science will change to meet the facts. The faithful, however, will deny this new truth if it doesn't agree with what they believe.
Besides what is covered in this gentleman's paper deals with theories surrounding abiogenesis, not evolution. Evolution doesn't happen until after life appears.
First of all man did not evolve from monkeys. Your question has no valid premise as worded.
There are many creatures that are very basic and have existed for almost as long as life has been present. Why do nematodes still exist?
Evolution would predict that when a species evolves from a certain population that the population may still continue on as before. They were just forked is all.
A species being obligated to cease to exist because it evolved a new species would be what I would expect from Intelligent Design and would likely falsify evolution.
In your parents basement spending hours playing some video game is to gaming what masturbation is to sex.
There were hardcore gamers before there were video games and the Wii is actually very attractive to those same people. A hardcore gamer will play almost anything, any time, any place, as long as he gets a chance to beat you at something.
I would think that under the Magnusson-Moss Warranty act that her machine is still warranted by law.
The act says that you can't tie people to only certain products. It's why having your car's brakes fixed at a small shop doesn't void the vehicle's warranty. If you look at Linux as just a part then she should have recourse.
"Tie-In Sales" Provisions
Generally, tie-in sales provisions are not allowed. Such a provision would require a purchaser of the warranted product to buy an item or service from a particular company to use with the warranted product in order to be eligible to receive a remedy under the warranty. The following are examples of prohibited tie-in sales provisions.
Seems to me that saying use Windows or no warranty is a violation.
A farmer needing to communicate with the world and see prices and weather doesn't really count unless he plays WoW.
I'm at a loss for words.
Trust me when I say that all but the most isolated people don't have access to several broadband offerings. That includes people living at the border and no where near it.
The fact is that of that 90% living near the border very close to 100% of those people have access to it. The other 10% has great but more limited access. In Canada if you want broadband you can get it. Most of the people without it don't want it. That is much different from can't get it.
That might be a good argument if only those people within 160 kms of the border had access. The truth is that Canada has broadband access almost everywhere.
Saskatchewan is roughly the same land area as Texas and has only about 1 million population. Texas is about 20 million. I've had broadband for almost ten years now and hardly know anyone withou it. Remote little northern communities have it. People who can't get service from the traditional sources are often putting up sattelite systems. I know some people who install these systems and they are always busy. Some of those systems are also very pricy.
So, while much of the population is near the border broadband access is pretty much everywhere.
This guy is an idiot but I basically agree with him. He's an idiot for complaining about digital broadcasts and then demanding that his one show be delivered in high def. He also blames the content providers for digital broadcasting but it is a law brought in that even the content proiders have to live with. It's costing them money too.
Having said that I can see an all on demand micropayment world for TV viewing in the future. What will the charges be? That's easy; whatever the market will bear.
Any PS3s you see sitting on shelves have been purchased from Sony already. Sony would rather they were flying off the shelves than sitting but they still sold those. They may have trouble selling more if they don't move from store shelves.
Using a wheel and pedal set doesn't make my wrist hurt and I cannot use console controllers.
The game is a blast. It has great graphics and physics and an almost completely deformable environment. Except for the solid objects that stop you cold and launch your driver onto the pavement.
Fun, fun, fun which is all I really want from a game.
While I pretty much agree with what you are saying I should point out that this is a web browser we are talking about. Ignorance of connected computers can't apply to a product that requires a connected machine to be useful.

I think the obligation is on the creationists to prove themselves correct.
Gestation is not miraculous. It is also a common occurrence. Whether it happens in an egg, mammalian womb, or marsupial pouch.
A miracle would be if I flipped a coin and instead of coming up heads or tails it turned into a bird and flew away.
Labeling animal reproduction as miraculous is a completely distorted view of reality.
Miraculous?
Birth is one of the most common things that happens on the planet. In a single year the number of animals that will be born or hatched is staggering.
You say miraculous, I say common, every day occurrence.
I guess reality becomes obfuscated by religious fantasy.
It's sad that this extraordinary little nugget of truth will likely be overlooked.
What is a 'Linux App'?
I've been running Linux for many years and the applications that I run on Linux are pretty much all cross platform.
The desktops can be Gnome or KDE or a whole bunch of others. There are Gnome apps and KDE apps. There are also GNU apps.
Linux is not a desktop. It's a kernel.
Pet peeve. Sorry.
I see no reason in the article to switch from LyX to either of those. I guess while OO is an option, Word isn't, MS doesn't make a Linux version.
LOL

I'd take them to small claims.

Oh yeah, I own two HD systems.
It would be perfectly legal to stand on the street and stare at my naked daughter through her bedroom window.
She has drapes for this.

In about six months I'm going to visit a local porn shop to see which format they have the most titles in.

If your needs are to test web sites you design and build on as many different browsers you can get hold of, then you just might want this.
I just browse, so, like you, I just use FF.
A better example of brute force sports are shot put, javelin, high jump, weightlifting and even 100m dash.
In many sports brute force is an asset but not always required. Timing is almost always required in any sport.
Rugby (which I love to watch) is like football (which I love to watch) played at the pace of a hockey game (which I love to watch.
