Segways fail as a replacement for bicycles. They don't go any faster, can't be configured to carry significant loads, run on sidewalks instead of streets, and eliminate the health benefits.
Oops, now I'm crossing up sucrose and fructose (the half of sucrose that causes the problem). Anyway, the "sugar" headline is misleading for the 90% who won't bother to read.
Modded up by people who didn't RTFA either. The toxin is sucrose, which makes up half of processed sugar and 55% of HFCS. It's metabolized by the liver rather than the cells. Glucose is not the problem.
Fine if you have plenty of space, but each of those 3 15 watt panels is about the size of the single 45 watt Solec panel (bought used on eBay) on my boat. Piecing together a panel might make sense for those of us trying to fit small or unusual spaces.
A 50-50 mixture of wheat flour and plaster isn't any nicer (hardens in their guts and drives them crazy before it kills them), but it's environmentally benign and won't contribute to your untraceable cancer a few decades down the road. Just put little piles of it in the same places you'd put traps. Usually finishes them off in a few days.
If this is the answer, the question must have been something like, "How can our favorite contractors get a enormous chunk of weapon development money disguised as a green power initiative?"
I'd have to go with a simplified junk rig if you want it to survive the trip: low stresses on the mast and sailcloth, no standing rigging and three control lines including reefing. Too many things can go wrong with a bermuda rig and there's no one to go on deck to fix them.
I'm surprised more people aren't using the fitaly keyboard (www.fitaly.com).
It's a keyboard optimized for one finger or stylus input. It took me a few days to get good with it, but it's pretty fast once I get on a roll. Freqent letter combinations are grouped together and I rarely have to move around much to type a word.
After using a Newton, Grafiti, QWERTY and Pocket PC recognition this is the only stylus input solution I've found that's actually faster than writing on paper. I took notes on 90 minute panel discussion and was actually able to jot down most of what was said (with a lot of help from word completion).
Disclaimer: I don't work for them, just really find this useful.
The obvious(?) solution to this is to have the skins, decals and voices change so that the 'other' team is always the Nazis. One team is infiltrating the Nazi bunker while at the same time the other team is defending their bunker from Nazi infiltrators.
This seems like it would be trivial from a programming standpoint and the only real pain would be for map makers to design two sets of color/decal schemes for a pair of physically identical maps.
We're used to posters who won't bother to read the linked story, but odaiwai didn't even read the description which referenced this Monty Python gag and linked to the entire script!

Actually, if the system was any less complex, it would have failed. Having "a scant few superfast backbones," etc. make for a simple, but efficient system. A truly complex system would have many types of servers and software communicating over a large number of slower connections. To the extent that it was truly complex, it would be less efficient and more reliable.
The heterogeneity of the linkages (other cables, satellite, etc) is what saved Australia from interruption. A single, really big high-speed cable could be made really dark by a single really big ship.

CERN is bored with the old sub-atomic particles and wants a redesign that attracts new particles from more profitable demographics.
'Meanderings of Memory' was somebody's code for "I made it up."

The cake is a lie!

Which is why the whales must now be blasted in to outer space.

My insurance covers "acts of God," but I'm not so sure about acts of NOAA.

Didn't he eventually have this dog killed (presumably so he wouldn't have to share the royalties)? Feel good story for the new millennium.
I just want to fight bosses and rescue princesses. Is it really necessary for me go through the whole level to 'unlock' the part I care about?
People who don't believe in evolution should take last year's flu shot.

Remember when there was a rumor that Lotus and Ashton-Tate were going to merge. The new company would be called. . . "Late."
