Cherney points out that grass biofuel pellets are much better for the environment because they emit up to 90 percent less greenhouse gases than oil, coal and natural gas do.
So, burning grass pellets produces less greenhouse gasses? So, if the carbon in the pellets isn't burning, what exactly is, and why are those byproducts not harmful?
Oh, yeah, much worse than Clinton (Wag the dog Bosnia/Serbia/whoever), or Bush Sr (Gulf War), or Reagan (who not?) or Carter (Desert One) or Ford (okay, maybe not Ford) or Nixon (VietNam) or Johnson (VietNam) or Kennedy (VietNam) or Eisenhower (VietNam, Honduras, Korea) or Truman (Korea, WWII) or FDR(WWII)...
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
Very simple statement of the simple principle. If you want respect, treat others with respect. If you want dignity, treat others with dignity.
It's astounding how often I've found that to work, it approaches an inverse Sturgeon's Law. There are always the people who will not respect you regardless, and people who will take advantage of your treatment of them, but the majority of people will react in kind.
"Put yourself in their shoes" is a similar way of thinking.
So, you basically haven't felt safe at any point in your life? Or at least since the first FDR term? Because US Presidents have been "horny" for dropping bombs on smaller countries since the 30's.
I was trying to debug a program that ran as a subprocess. The program would crash, so I attached a gdb session to the process to watch it. When the access violation happened, I tried to print the pointer which caused the crash. I was not trying to print the contents of the pointer, just the value the pointer contained. When I typed "print p", not only did the gdb session lock up, the entire kernel locked up, to the point that the computer wouldn't even respond to pings, or to the keyboard on the console.
Now, granted maybe the choice of RedHat as the distro was flawed (the customer requires it). Maybe there is some problem with using that particular version of Electric Fence with that particular version of gdb, after using that particular version of gcc to build the software, and a problem with that particular version of the kernel. But I'm sorry, Operating Systems 101 says "user programs must not crash the kernel." And as a software developer, I should not have to worry about it happening. I never had that kind of problem with Solaris, SunOS, HP/UX, AIX, or even A/UX, and certainly never with VAX/VMS. Why do I have the problem with user programs crashing the kernel in Linux, MacOS X, and Windows?
If Linux is going to be the "secure, reliable" standard in the future, it's going to have to stop being prone to these kinds of problems. The applications that support Linux are going to have to be built with more discipline, and rigidly and thoroughly tested. Why would a utility like "up2date" need to be "patched" since it's been around so long? Why are there "security holes" in ssh? Why is it a requirement to sign on to an endless daily stream of patches to be applied to so many critical parts of an operating system?
At any rate, the bloom is off the Linux rose for me, I've been touting it as a valid alternative for Windows, and I will continue to do so, but with caveats and with less enthusiasm. I also fully expect to be moderated "Troll" or "Flamebait" which bothers me not in the least.
liked the little "homage" to the original Catwoman actress from the original "Batman" movie. "Miss Kitka". "Purrrrrrrfect". A fitting tribute to Julie Newmar.
Personally, there's an additional metric. A stock is overpriced if I can't afford to buy any shares of it. Berkshire Hathaway, for example. I stay away from stocks that are more than 3 digits in price, and try to stay $50 and under. I've found some very nice stocks in the $5-$15 dollar range that pay good dividends, too.
Hopefully Apple will pay dividends one day (I never thought I'd see Microsoft do so).
And require the person treated to remain on immunosupressive drugs for the rest of his life.
Adult stem cells taken from the person being treated, even if it is more difficult to produce the "necessary" quantities, does not have the problem of rejection.
If we do not allow scientists access to funding in promising new fields, some other country will. Sitting back and trying to feel out the "morality" of new scientific research is simply going to put the U.S. behind the numberous countries willing and able to look past there "beliefs".
Other countries did, back in the 1930's and 40's. A lot of valuable information was learned about how much the human body can stand dehydration, food deprivation, and physical exertion.
When I first heard of the blog-concept, I thought:
What kind of egocentric and conceited cunts think they need to share their shit-encrusted thoughts with the world? How deep can someone sink?
Slashdot Mirror
Then my work here is done!

"Para para" is a kind of popular dance in Japan, spreading around the world. You can find out info here:
"Para para dance culture in Japan"
Yeah, it's a long way to go for a pun, but what the hey!
Cap.
I wonder if, for the Japanese media, they made a "super-para-para-magnetism" version?
Cap.
In the words of Dr. Zoidberg (A Medical Corporation),
"Welcome to my world!"
That whizzing sound? It's the sound of a point going completely past you.
And the opposite to the point you thought he made.

They don't want to be associated with the US, just our money.

Not to mention not enough design time.

The funniest thing for me is, I'm beginning to hate technology, for the very same reason you cite.

He was likely referring to price, not value.

But first came Slashdot to show the way...
Nan desu ka?
"Boxen" is old hacker-speak for the plural of "box". Uses the same pluralization rule as "ox - oxen".
You're not from around here, are you? ^_^
