And what about Time Warner. When I was up in Kenosha, WI this summer every time I started a BT task in my client, my download would start out with normal rates of 50-100k/sec and then after less than a minute they would drop to 2k/sec. At this point my entire internet connection would be throttled back to 2k and I was unable to browse the web at all. A minute or so after stopping the BT task in my client my connection would return to normal.
Also I have two remote users up there with VoiP phones that connect to our corporate VoiP PBX. They worked perfectly for almost a month and then suddenly stopped working (on the same day) with out explanation. Attempts to use "testmyvoip.com" fail also, so that rules out the our VoiP phones and our VoiP system also. Funny thing is one of the guys phone started partially working last week, but the other guy is still totally out of commission. Even more odd, the guy that cannot get our VoiP phone, or soft phones, or testmyvoip.com to work has a Time Warner VoiP phone that works perfectly.
I'm so frustrated with the crap from them. No matter how much evidence you present to them illustrating that the problem exist on their side they refuse to investigate.
I don't know a lot about the WTO or international trade agreements, but it seems to me that if the US has a regulated industry, such as gambling, then they can ban international gambling organizations on the grounds that the US has no jurisdiction over them and thus can not control gambling practices of outside gambling organizations to bring them inline with internal laws in the way that it controls internal gambling organizations.
Capell found that Mullins had been fired from his previous job at the Smithsonian Institution
Don't they usually check out your references and previous employers BEFORE they hire you!? The whole point is to learn something about the character of the person you know nothing about. Once they already work for you and have show themselves to be a liar and thief you don't need a reference or google search to tell you that.
I have to agree. PayPal has an excellent (and has had for quite a while) Voice Recognition system. But it all really comes down to who designs the IVR. A well designed IVR is a pleasure to navigate. But you rarely run into one of the good ones...
Why are they comparing the price of a Hummer over the course of 300,000 mile and a Prius over only 100,000 miles? Shouldn't they be comparing the operational cost over an equal number of miles? Did I miss something or does that seem weird...
That is exactly the problem. You don't even understand what the product is and your presenting it to your manager. Your lucky that the site is down. Because if your manager probably would have fired your dumb ass for showing him something when you didn't even take the time to find out what the product does.
OpenNMS does not make a network stay available, it is a tool used monitor said network for issues. People who make comments like your's immediately lose credibility with me.
Religion has served it's purpose. It was required during the formation of early civilizations. It was something more powerful than all of us and kept everyone from killing each other. Now (and for the last couple of thousand years) it is instead the reason we kill each other. It gives us false hope, breeds ignorance, and divides us. It tells us that we should believe things without reason. It discourages us from testing those beliefs. It is the antithesis of progress.
I am not hardwired to believe anything. My beliefs are shaped by my experiences, and observations. I gather evidence, and attempt to be rational when knowledge allows. Through observations of the world around me I have come to the conclusion that mankind is not a creation of god, but god is a creation of mankind. I DO NOT believe your fairy tales. I DO NOT fear your hell. I WILL NOT suffer your god's wrath. I WILL NOT fall prey to ignorance.

Am I wrong in assuming that he can't feel anything across most of his body? Isn't that going to impact his ability to experience zero gravity? We all become aware of weight and what it means by supporting our body weight or other objects. Since he can not support his own weight, or lift other objects can he really understand what what weight is?

Actually there are no.'s or..'s in the file system. These little gems only denote relative directories and are never actually part of the file system. I'll refrain from calling you a noob. Like the . it is almost always implied, and in 99% of the cases is just redundant.

I don't know why people are still debating this. The people over at the FSH project put a lot of hard work in to their documents specifically to avoid stuff like this.
Printer manufacturers have been doing this for ages. I used to buy a new printer all the time because it was cheaper or only a couple of dollars more for a new printer than buying replacement cartridges. Now days the put low volume cartridges (i.e. enough ink to print 10 pages) in the printers so you have to buy ink ASAP.
You must not be a resident of the United Kingdom. I find it interesting that any country's government or military would rely on a foreign proprietary piece of software to reach mission critical goals. Normally I might agree with you, but in this case...since the UK is already bending over for the US it doesn't really make a difference.
The fact that there are over 30,000 denominations of Christianity 99% of which use the exact same Bible should make it obvious that using the scripture you can validate anything, no matter how moronic or terrible it might be. You can justify anything with faith (irrational belief), and can get most people to follow you with the fear of eternal hell fire.
Christians like to think of themselves as the sacred protectors of tolerance, and understanding, but their bible only teaches that 10% of the time, the other 90% is stuff like this:
Isaiah 13:15-18
Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is joined unto them shall fall by the sword.
Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.
Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eyes shall not spare children.
Probably the best part of the bible is the soft core porn of "Song of Solomon", and the homosexual affair of David and Jonathan in 1 Samuel and 2 Samuel, "they kissed one another, and wept one with another, until David exceeded." - 1 Samuel 20:41.
I'm a product of said Cobb County school system. It wasn't so bad until when I was there (80-92). I think the area sort of yuppied up a bit after the Olympics came to Atlanta. Went I went back to visit a couple of years ago I didn't recognize anything except the Big Chicken...lol

Is my logic flawed here?
