but the teeth market won't be the market that fuels this research. No, the market is the hair loss market. the same stem cell technology is being used to replace teeth can replace hair follicles.
in traditional hair restoration, hair is transplanted from point A on the bottom of the scalp, where the follicles for some reason don't fall out like they do on the crown. this works, but the hair has to be spread thin, because there's only X amount you can take, and it means there's going to be missing hair from the bottom.
what the cloned hair would do is allow an arbitrary thickness and density of placement, not limited by the donors thickness and supply at the base, since you can take a small amount from the base, clone them to the amount you want, and make a better graft.

what you mean is HIGHLY SUBSIDISED BY THE FEDERAL US GOVERNMENT. The reason the US is putting the world out of business is because its governments fund farmers to grow or not grow crops. When governments stop funding industry, and lift ALL restrictions on trade, the economies will balance. Real capitalism means No government restrictions, no government favors.
Also, note that India's poor are being put out of business because of lack of capital. They have less tractors and equipment and such. tractors and equipment and such are expensive because they are foreign bought. there are very few capital industries that develop heavy equipment needed to farm the land. etc etc etc Because they don't have the capital, it costs more to make the food. It requires more people and more work, for the same product, which has the same value. anything that takes more people and more time and more work to make less is inheretly more expensive to make.

truth is, if you have artwork that you want to copyright, you should keep it off the web, where it is easily stolen, or include watermarks and a copyright notice.
Seriously, I agree. Object oriented programming should prevent this, too. Develop object models then take the request variables and insert them into the objects before inserting them into SQL. Constructors should parse special characters that could lead to injection. Also, it is easier to implement business rules using OOP. Seriously, even interpreted languages do OO now, its time we all used them.
does this guy have a college degree? he didn't mention it in his submission. That can be the difference between finding a job.

No. after you came down, you'd be fined by the FAA.
Remember that story about the guy who rode a lawn chair with weather balloons into the sky? He was fined something like $4000 for his unauthorized flight. I think they'd hardly take military action, and they could hardly intercept in the time the flight would take place. (from what I've read all these X-Prize style trips would be less than thirty minutes, I could be wrong)
Anyways, I'm glad the FAA did this. Go SpaceShipOne!

It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self-interest. We address ourselves, not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our own neccessities but of their advantages."

Its called DPOD . digital print on demand. Customize the marketing and sales to a person entirely... not just a word mail merge... a photo merge, where the vacation photo you took on your cruise is sent back, superimposed on the larger, cooler cruise ship out this year. a few companies merge output from popular graphics design tools, like quark, with XML and other stuff, which get their feed from marketing databases.
I work for a small firm who develops software that is sold to companies that do specific mail marketing. a lot of people are looking for this.

Weapons in Space
·
· Score: 4, Insightful
weapons in space are used to counter weapons that travel through space to reach intended targets. China has weapons that travel through space, so to say that we are being racist or judgemental is false. there is a real threat by weapons that travel through space, and china has those weapons.
To say that china has an amicable relationship with the US is false. they crashed a jet into a radar plane of ours, and we had to do some real legwork to get the crew back.

Just because it has a name like 'regulation' or 'deregulation' doesn't mean bull.
By the way, I am against this. Not because I don't like cheap broadband, but because I hate the idea that instead of people running more wires, they want to force people to share wires. In my old town of Arlington, Mass, RCN and Comcast competed, but RCN ran its own infrastructure on the poles just like comcast did. Having its own infrastructure meant that RCN didn't have to work on whacky contracting rules or hire union or whatever. They worked on their own terms and had a superfast net connection/kickass cable/etc...
In the Boston area, Comcast has to compete with RCN, who has some of the fastest internet access available to the home, tiered priced, and local phone/cable service.
I miss RCN; my roomie had comcast and didn't want to change. Boo on that; RCN 4 life!
No, its akin to the government telling them what paints to use. Or, not to sell paintings with trees in them, since there's an artist who sells paintings exclusively of trees.
the word 'bully' is completely inaccurate. bullys use force to get what they want. buying software is a completely voluntary transaction. One can choose not to do business on a "bullys" terms.
Yeah, if I were microsoft, I'd refuse to sell the software to Europe.
I'd rather pay a gigantic fine than let some government tell me how to make *my* software.
Although many of you won't agree, its akin to the government telling an artist what his painting should be. And yes, I think software is an art.

Thank you.
My father worked at Raytheon in 1991 (well before that, and still to this day. 30 years). He was very proud to be part of something that was involved in saving American lives, even after it had not been originally designed in a missle intercept mode. I later got involved in software and interned at Raytheon, because of my interest in the Patriot program as a kid.
Patriot may not have intercepted all missles, but what defense mechanism employed by the military does?
Patriot saved lives. It was worth every effort to implement.
I hope that microsoft stops selling windows in Europe. Period. I'd tell them that if the software they make is so bad, they don't have to have it. I would refuse to do business in a nation that would force me to make a product a certain way (aside from safety concerns).
Europe would be on its knees without the software. they'd turn around in a second.
