Of course they also contribute longer, putting more money into the system, so I'd like to see a % contributed and % cost along these lines, otherwise the data you've provided are useless.
The problem is stupidity does more damage(See the SocGen bank stuff) than just a bunch of people losing their homes. These are banks losing cash from the re-sale of homes and losing profit, investors losing money, losing interest in investing in the American market, businesses with those same investments cutting jobs and cutting back to make up for the losses. It echoes, that's what an economy does. It's never one person's fault or bad investment or idiocy, it's everyone's, for better or worse.
Actually the Chinese wouldn't let the dollar crash, besides borrowed money it would crash their economy from investments and the purchased we make. Crashing the dollar would cost China just about every penny they have and then some, and throw them into chaos. It's good to be a big market. Ditto for Europe(in both directions, we don't want them to crash they don't want us to crash). Everyone keeps it in a good balance it flows up and down with nothing too terrible in any direction.
I agree with points 1 and 4 but disagree on the rest. The whole story was very lacking and superficial to make a monster movie. This guy wants to risk his life, his friends life, to go save a chick he banged? Who has a boyfriend? When he knew he can't have her because he is leaving? It's all very stupid-heroic, but the story was very much a side effect of the monster movie it contained. Yes, I know he wanted to go by himself but you would think after his brother died on the bridge he would realize there was a serious situation and going back for some chick he banged isn't the smartest thing to do.
I agree with you on the rest, specials effects were awesome and the main character was Hud(hud? I don't know) who was the cameraman. As an idiot he was definitely the best character out of the four, and the only one I wasn't wishing would die asap.:) I enjoyed the movie thoroughly. Luckily I was at a theater with a smallish screen and the shaking was much more tolerable.
That could not have been said better. I agree completely. I always telecommute because I just do consulting for a few people. They had me come in before and it was all politics and absolutely ridiculous. In-person meetings were about charisma more than what the meetings were about.
By saying this: "Feeding babies an exclusive diet of soy milk results in malnutrition." You make it sound like cow's milk would work just fine. That's what I was correcting, feeding babies an exclusive diet of cow's milk results in malnutrition as well as just soy milk.
Breastfeed, or use an infant formula. DUH! Cow's milk isn't a direct substitute for formula or breastmilk, and soy milk isn't always the proper replacement for milk. But neither is cow's milk.
You are 100% correct. But the new studios will not have the ownership, perception of power, and complacency of the old studios. Or at least not as great.
Lots of small indie films that have hit it big have been from small studios or even just groups of people coming together to do it(still takes 10-50 people) but it's doable and has been done before.
I'm not a fan of video tutorials, how about a step-by-step process, anyone? They work for some people, but not for me. Yes, I use Firefox. Yes, I do know how to install programs. Not only should I know it, but I do know how. Again, yes, I do know how to do it. Thanks.
I'm a Mac fan now. It has it's quirks, so does XP(which have become quite tolerable) but Vista is really getting on my nerves. Unless I'm building a Linux or BSD machine, then it would be that XPS. It would make one nice looking *nix machine. But it's a personal choice, it took me awhile to learn to deal with XP's quirks, KDE's were easy to deal with though(actually refreshing) and recent advances only make it more-so. So I can see people choosing Vista over Mac, but personally I've dealt with my last Vista machine.
I was up and jumping around, with wrist weights on. My legs aren't hurting but are definitely resting from a workout, my arms and shoulders are both hurting from some tennis. (Swing both arms to get exercise, get up and move around, and yeah, you're getting more than an extra 60cals an hour)
Did you read the OP? He was stating that most kids exercise routine is the Xbox 360! And that getting a 2% boost is still better than not doing anything at all.
It's all about how much you put into it. These were healthy kids who regularly get exercise tested. Try it on a kid who now has the wii as the most movement they are getting at all. Most people using the wii as a fitness tool will be moving their feet for tennis and using full arm movement. Were these kids doing that? Or sitting down? Sometimes I even with wrist or ankle weights.
As an adult, I use one of those watches that counts how many calories you burn(takes your heart rate and compares with age, weight, height). I get a decent warm-up type workout, especially with wrist weights. I still go to the gym, but the wii helps me get into the mood. Light warm-up workouts really get you in a good mood and you want to go to the gym to continue that.
Android is a platform, not a device. So some may come with GPS others may not. You can buy a bluetooth add-on for GPS and Google Maps works with it(or attempts to triangulate, but is not very accurate, as they already tell you).
That's how I got into Stargate Atlantis. You have to be kidding me if you think I'm going to pay for cable for 8 shows. Now I can get it (legally) on iTunes, and I do. Bonus, goes to the ipod automatically(for travel watching, etc.. hooks into my portable screen). There should be more shows on services like this, and more solutions like itunes/ipod(zune comes to mind, so does amazon unbox).
Agreed. Wow, that is not what I would call "journalism" that is what I would call pink on the belly blogging from a 12 year old who's 3rd post it is. "whackypedia" really removed any semblance of any journalism right there. But no quotes, no clue what was edited, bad analogies, it was just terrible. Not that I'm a journalist, or a blogger, but wow. Normally on Slashdot the summaries are all I need but this time I wanted to click, always could use a good reason to laugh at the gov't, but wow. How terribly disappointed I was.
I think Interpreted language is what it is now. In Perl/PHP etc... you can define functions/methods before or after you call them, as the entire file is parsed into bytecode typically, then interpreted. The steps are all automatic from the compiler/interpreted(perl or php from the command line). Python can save as bytecode to speed it up even further, although it is a one-time speed up typically.
Most IDEs let you compile and run at least basic C/C++ code from the IDE, without any additional steps.:D You can think of this as what php or perl itself does. AFAIK, Bash and other shell scripts go line-by-line, and stuff typically has to be defined before they are used. That is more of a traditional definition of a scripting language.
A good thing most websites that use php use is a bytecode cache(think of Java Bytecode) where it is compiled once and kept in memory to let it run faster.
You could easily have a.bat file in windows or a shell script handle all the things to make a text file into an a.out or into a compiled java program and then run that program, it's all a matter of where it is happening and who is doing it. Ah, love technology. Labels are stupid these days, use what works best for the situation and go from there.
Heavy backlights like PDAs and cell phones hurt a lot of people's eyes. The e-readers don't have that problem, (if it's the e-paper stuff) and has to be illuminated by a traditional light, like a book. I had a sony e-reader once and it was great, except the USB did not work. Sony suggested I unplug all my USB peripherals and only plug in the e-reader to make it work, which doesn't work when the mouse and keyboard are both USB. But it had problems, and hopefully everything will be fixed at some point and support will be improved.

Yes, they are. I can get dsl, 128k down(overestimate, as DSL and comcast speeds are) with 24k up. SERIOUSLY.
I have it as a backup(Comcast has been down for a week at a time with only a busy signal for tech support).
Our city wide wireless is almost live. Thank YOU! I get top quality service. Now I just need a damn wifi card in my main pc again.
Zend? Aptana? Have you looked? You know we're talking about PHP here? You seem to have confused it with something else.

:D
Works great in my well lit house with the windows. I haven't seen many TVs that compare to my HDTV projector at 120" +
But to each their own. Anything over 50" is great for splitscreen on video games. Keeps me very happy.

Oh, there's lots of those: http://www.governmentsecurity.org/archive/t4695.html is one example. There are more for PHP, I'm sure for Ruby and Python but I rarely dabble in those languages.

But also, what is Java then? A scripting language?
