Lets assume all the power of 2 phones is absorbed by this 60 g egg. That would be 4W. This corresponds to 4W*3*60s = 720 J. To warm up 1 g of water 1K about 4.2 J (Cp, specific heat) is needed. That gives temperature increase of about 720J/(60g*4.2(J/(g*K))) = 2.86K. Even 3 Kelvin temperature increase would not be enough to cook an egg taken from the fridge (I hope everyone will just believe it because proving it scientifically from first principles could be quite hard job).
URL of each fetched page goes through REGEX matching. If a pattern defined by the user is found, then the contents is first passed via corresponding PERL script.
Another function: View Source should also enable the user to edit the source (preferably wrapping lines nicely and with some kind of autoindent). Then the user should be able to actually see his changes displayed in place of the original page! When satisfied with the change, one could press "generate a diff (patch)" button and store this patch to be applied later on the same (family of) page(s).
In this way all nonstandard behaviour could be first fixed. Once fixed, it would be stored locally to be applied later (diff or s/Bush/Kerry/g expressions or even the deep transformations). There could be some people collecting the best patches and filters and maintaining WWW "transformation patchsets". Power user hacks could be distributed to a wider audience.
Another transformation would by XSLT or other external plugins. Just give me a window with a table like: URL matching: weird.ms-only.com/cgi-bin/page.*asp pass through a filter: sanitize-ms-only.pl %s...
I am Polish, I have supported the war against Saddam at the beginning (there were some analogies with the lack of action against Hitler by France and England in WWII).
But now I can agree with every word of the article linked by parent post.
That only means that many people now call any UNIX system "Linux". In the popular culture, there is no UNIX. They just call it all "Linux".
Lets see when people will call any Operating System "Linux"? Any guesses?

I have not seen anywhere "White American Males Only" on that advertisements.
Portable blocks start at/19. Often you can get smaller one routed, but no transit ISP will guarantee to carry routing entries for blocks smaller than/19.
I am amazed that you are the only one mentioning running away. It has saved me several times. It is often the most effective and least damaging (to you both) solution, especially if you are not too far away from main street or something like that. Also crying "help" while running away may get some people interesed and the mugger a bit confused. Of course it really depends where you are, what is the attitude of other people to the whole affair. If I see 2 people just talking on the street, I do nothing. If one of them yells "help!" I would call the police from a safe distance.
Simply register anbd login. It really pays - their system is well designed (email notification about bug status changes, etc.). And they are actually responding and fixing reported buges! (OK, not immediately, but usually action gets scheduled and finally it happens).
In addition you may become suspect if you use a card marketed for swiss teenagers exclusively in rather unsafe parts of the world. You should also avoid using it too much near the place you live.
But if you treat it as a "disposable card for making that single important call" it should work quite well.
And I am not suprized they did not change cards. Card==tel number at which you are reachable.
BTW. I have bought mine at the flea market in Basel.

Earth rotation about its axis or about the sun?

No More Leap Second?

· Score: 1
The CNN article suggests that the speed of rotation around the sun behaves "strange".
most scientists agree the Earth's orbit around the sun has been gradually slowing for millennia.
But IMHO what can be changed by tidal, climatic geophysical effects is the speed of the rotatation about its own axis (leap seconds are introduced to correct the duration of the day, not the year).
Unfortunately CNN did not provide any way to comment/correct their article.
I was using for some time a mouse where the third button was on the left side. I have to say that it was more comfortable to press than the third button usually is. You will probably need one day to get used to it, but then you will like it really !
And I had no problems with using scroll wheel as third button as well.
Well, not a problem. Just wrap your vallet (or just the high notes) in aluminium foil. It should be also easy to manufacture wallets with such protection build-in. One could even imagine two "partitions" - protected private and "public money" where you would keek just 10 EUR to show you do not have much.
The people sending patches for the particular program will usually agree for dual licensing them, if not the company will simply refuse them. If they are very good, they may just reimplement it.
It becomes more difficult if inclusion of already established GPL software is desired. For example if I would like to use code from gnumeric in OpenOffice SUN would not be willling to accept this code, even if it would mean great functionaliy. So FORK GPL only version.Good place to start would be sending such GPL only code to Debian maintainers. Debian has already removed from its openoffice package some small parts which were not under GPL. It would be interesting if they would start accepting GPL only code to openoffice.
Or consider just a filter importing/exporting in gnumeric abiword whatever format - SUN can not use the free code from these programs in commercial version - but this means they will not be available at all!
If there is enough interest from free software developers and enough synergy from including the code from other GPL programs then the project will be forked or the most interesting pieces of original code will be used in other, "completely free" projects.
So we have 2 types of situations:
1. Code licensed under dual license, but maintainers do not accept any code licenced to them only under GPL. - FORK probable.Maintainers do not let in any "GPL virus" if it is not "their" virus.
2. Normal free software project - licenced under GPL and maintainders accept GPL only code.

Do not help this man! Everyone who is asking about maps is a suspected terrorist! Maps are essential in planning an effective terrorist action.
Seriously, mapping local area is a very good cooperative project.
Bush et al. WANTED something to happen, because then they got much more power because of it.
In this way they have entered "the permanent war state" known from Orwell's 1984.

Simply pack the books you borrow into tinfoil, or an aluminium case. It is really very easy to cut radio waves around small objects.
You could just shield the inside of your bag with any metal foil.
Well, in Europe no-shows are simply billed for their flight anyway.
I really do not understand how any airline can allow someone to book a place without getting at least 10% of the price in advance.
