Yet until there is "slum dunk" evidence to prove their claims, it should be given little credence. In this case can't we error on the side of caution. I mean why should a 3 year old or under be watching TV anyway?
These numbers are correct, if their IT people are incompetent. I just pictured an IT person working for a fortune 500 company going to Best Buy or something and buying 100,000 copies of Vista Pro (or what ever the high end version is called)....
Sorry this early in the morning it struke me as funny.
After reading you sig thanks to the mention it got from someone else, I was wondering, wouldn't it be easy to make the argument that goverments who fear their people are just as apt to by tyranicle. I mean the USSR feared it's people so it sent them to prisions in sibera or worse for trival reasons. The same can be said about Sadam's goverment and probably many others. I mean it seems that all tyrnaical goverments fear the people and fear that they will learn and rise up and thus the goverments rule with an iron fist. So maybe it should be when goverments repsect their people their is freedom. I guess that just doesnt have the same ring to it....
The trip would be short enough that the stresses on the heart and lungs would be minimal. I don't think it would be exactly what you call a short trip accelerating it over a period of hours, before suddenly flinging the satellite into space at 23 times the speed of sound. according to the article they would accelerate up to a speed of mach 10 before the cone would be seperated from the sled the sent in to orbit.
The logic is totally messed up here. Just becuase you do something once proves little. Imagine if the sugery had been a failure, that wouldnt nesicarilly prove that the concept is a failure.
So on/. pretexting is lying but taking software that you didn't pay for isn't called stealing.... Double standards abound all over the place and you don't even need to look to world of the rich and powerful to find it, you can find it in your own back yard.
I know I should repsond to AC's that post stuff liek this but I'll do it anyway. I doubt their is source code is Vista that will cause a winXP app running on a winXP machine to stop working, which is what I said. Thank you.
What confuses me is how much of a disadvantage can a company be in if they are running one version behind? Wouldn't that maybe make them a little better off, look at teh support base that exists for WinXP, what about all the holes that will be exposed in Vista in the first few days months etc. Its not like as soon as Vista comes out all the XP software will just stop working...
I've always maintained that women were just as capable as men. I think this helps prove me right. When all those women whistleblowers were shedding light on corporate scandal many people said that this proves that women are different and that women would run things differently. Not only does power corrupt but power attracts the corruptible.
I'm sorry but are't you disproving your own argument? It is an increasingly unpopular pricing method because people resent it I mean it's not like budget airlines have captured 100% of the airline market. Also even with traditional airlines you are getting differnt service for differnt prices. First class is more than coach. People who chose it feel as though they are getting more space, better food, more intimate service, and otherwise preferential treatment with regards to boarding. Some people like that, as such some airlines provide it. So you have budget airlines, tradtional airlines coach and traditional airlines firstclass/business class. So that is three differnt pricing tiers for estianlyy the same product.
Then the safety device gets in the way of getting work done, and it gets bypassed or it gets by passed because people are lazy and management looks the other way. For example the meat slicer at a restaurant/deli. I heard horror stories from my friends that started part time jobs in HS before me about how dangerous the slicer was they'd show me the cuts and the missing tips of fingers that would end up in tonight's bread pudding. So when I got a job that required me to use the meat slicer I was very careful and I found that if you would just keep your hand on the grip and behind the "shield" you were ok. I never cut myself or came close to it. So my point is even if the safety device is simple and it doesn't get in the way of proper use people will still find ways to hurt themselves in efforts to expedite their tasks.
Appearently your not alone. Infact the side lines will be pretty crowded according to this article here. I'll keep an eye out for you on teh sidelines.
I don't think he's a novice. I read it as he only trained for three days with this particular hull design. All in this entire article sucked. Happy feel good story with little to no technical details at all. Pretty much what I as a techie nerd would expect to get out of a business week article.
I took some cosmology in college but I don't remeber much and theories are very fluid and prone to change, but I seem to remeber learning somthing about acclerated expansion in time shortly after the big bang. I also remeber a professor making the distiction between an object not being able to travel fater than the speed of light but nothing prevents the space in between to objects can increase faster than the speed of light.
I'm confused if your trying to be humorous or not. I'm not good with humor.... In any case I don't see how it can make things much worse. It's not like people have gone in to have the left leg amputaed and woke up with the right one gone. See one story here

I'm going to puke if I see somebody mention that the desktop days are coming to an end!!!! Who says?
I don't know who said it, but Netcraft confirms it....:)

Even if it IS a stupid BANK error, why do people feel the need to take advantage of it?!?!
You must be new here, and by here I mean humanity.
Why yes, my hat ismade out of tin. How did you know?
We know all about you QuantunFTL (the tinfoil, it does nothing)
Not to sound like a troll but please give refrences to studies or book sales showing book reading as a whole is going down...

Maybe it's a civil versus criminal issue. Also I know of some examples in Fl at least were parents were also arrested for their kids truancy.
IANAL.

IANAP, so take it with many grains of salt.

I was going to counter with KJA, but then I realzied you said "anyone with good story-telling skills". I agree with you.
I've seen a lot of crappy fan fiction in my day, usually set in forests. I'm not holding my breath that this will be better.
