and how are you any better? All you have done is point out some errors and insult me. Is that what I should be doing? All I was trying to do is point out that they both have media that is on there side, atleast in some way.
the names you are looking for are James Carville and Paul Begala
And yes these guys do cover Kerry.. Wheather they will still do that or not is not the point. It just show the slant of CNN. I am not saying Foxnews is any better I am just saying both Bush and Kerry have some news slanted there way
Yes and Kerry has is 24x7 ad running. It's called CNN.. And before you say no. Two CNN commentators just joind the Kerry campaign, and they are still doing there shows on CNN
First let me just say that I agree with most every thing you have said. But I think you and others have missed on very important thing. While it is your right to do what ever you want with your iPod. Such as hack it to get it to play any file format you want. It is not your right to hack it and then turn around and sell that for a profit. Real has done this for the express perpious of making money. It is not OK to hack your PS2 to play burned DVDs and then sell it for money. This is not different
The sponsor model is great, but wouldn't one rather fast-forward (or surf) through Britney Spears or CarrotTop than through the dreaded membership campaigns?
Being a CS degree holder, I understand the frustration. It seems futile to "learn" how to work on your own while knowing that your work outside of school will be done with a team. Not to mention that some of the projects can seem almost impossible to do without some help from others!
CS is a formal discipline. What the profs are teaching by making everyone code on their own is *how to code on your own*. If one plans to become a software engineer or hacker or computer scientist for a living, one needs to know how to stare at the screen for hours (or days!) having no idea how to fix the problem. One needs to know how to stop and take a break and pace around the room muttering about how stupid the compiler is or how much double pointers suck. And one also needs to know how to try to find the answer without anyone else's help.
Yes, sometimes, you just can't figure it out on your own and you need a resource. That's what the prof, your book, and the web are all for. If you need to get help from a friend in class, nobody said you can't do that. Just because you wrote your code yourself doesn't mean that you didn't get a verbal hint on how to solve the problem (stress the *verbal* part).
Unfortunately, arguing that you don't need to learn how to code on your own is akin to arguing that you don't need to learn how to add because you have a calculator. Remember using that one in grade school?
And I hate to break it to you, but although you will be working as a team, 90% of your time you'll most likely be working on your own. Your manager/supervisor/team-lead will give you a piece of code or some other thing to do, and you'll go do it. When you can't figure it out yourself, you'll go ask for help. But then sometimes... when you really need help... the person or persons you need to ask won't be there. They'll be at a meeting or on vacation or at lunch or out sick and you'll have to figure it out on your own anyway. And then you'll get really good at your job and then other people will ask you for help. And then you'll be the only one who knows what to do so there you'll be again: by yourself.
Don't get me wrong, it's a really good gig. And you certainly do have to work with other people. But mostly, you really truly need to know what you're doing on your own.
Well I hate to brake it to you but there are now F-16s on regular patrole in the NYC and DC area.
I live in DC not to far from the Pentigon, and let me tell you from Tusday morning through most of Thursday, the only aircracft were military. This did not make me feel sace on bit. It made feel like I lived in a war zone. WHich in some way I suppose I now do. I am not saying that it is the same as it is in Isreal, but we now see lots of military people all over(yes they are armed), it does tell me that the USA is not invonarable, and that we do live in a dangerus world

Very nice..
way to go. Great respons.
So what is your point? Other than being insulting. If my errors make my point invalid, do your insults make yours any better?
If you are such a great and wonderfull person lets hear it.
I agree %100 with your point about Novak..
I do not think this is a question of honor, but one of slant.
That is all I was trying to say.
and how are you any better? All you have done is point out some errors and insult me. Is that what I should be doing?

Totebag anyone?
In the original post from timothy you will see these words " Yep, it's a hoax. Fun! Tricks are neat!"
Seems like a lot of people do not read things to the end.
