I did all of this for a kite rig, used it twice and then scapped it and bought a "gentled" ir device. Basically it's a camera ir remote to model airplane RC bridge. So I can trigger it from the ground.
The new crop of cameras have 802.11(x) options so it would be even easier with them
GWB speaks all the time, yes but he makes gaffes all the time! Sure I used the "misunderestimating" thing, it's funny! People who don't speak English as a first language even get it.
There is a whole website devoted to his abuse of the English language. There isn't a "Vaclav Havel can't speak Cestina" website or a "Putin can't master Russian" or even a "Kim Jong-il butchers the Korean language" website.
I do expect politians to have a passable undertanding of the law and in the MP3 of GWB's Q&A with the native Americans he demonstrates that he has no idea what the word sovereignty means or how to use it in a sentence.
"partisan knee padder" that's funny:) You're right all of the major American Political parties need to paddled on my knee... and most of the smaller ones!
My roommate at university was a one of those long term type Americans, you know with a family tree in the US. We routinely used to freak each other out with culture shock...anyway one of his favorite movies was "Elmer Gantry" which, along with others, he would frequently quote:I come to these here revivals and get saved, and then I go out and get powerfully drunk. It's done me a world of good getting powerfully drunk and then powerfully saved"
In my experience everyone lies, some more so that others. But no one lies more than a sober man with an agenda. And no one lies less than a drunk when he's discovered that you're a drunk too and he feels the need to confess his transgressions.
I expect that sometimes smart people can sound stupid, everyone has bad days and many people including myself have real problems with public speaking. But my job includes *zero* public speaking. A large part of a Politician's job is public speaking so I would expect him to at least sound like he knew what he was talking about. I also expect some knowledge of law and an advanced degree in hedging or not looking stupid (or whatever public speakers call what to do when some asks you a question you haven't studied up on). What I didn't expect was for the President to sound like a high school student in an oral exam he had not studied for.
So yes, I am going on what I have read and heard. When the speech deviates from the script, George W. Bush comes off as uneducated and a bit slow, but hey I could be "misunderestimating" him. It's a well known fact that Politicians hire other men to write or help write their speeches, I don't think it a long step to question someone's critical thinking when speeches go as poorly as the things I've read & heard that are attributed to him
And I really don't get your *wink wink* comment, Monty Python's public performances are far better than GWB's.
Amazing, I have had the same sig for over a year and by my reckoning until a few weeks ago, the only the thing it did was earn me a few 'freaks'. Suddenly it's provoking responses with most of my posts and interestingly they are intelligent responses (not necessarily agreeing with me). I wonder what will happen after the election and everyone has calmed down.
I wonder is GWB really a "recovering alcoholic"? I thought they went to meetings. I know he has claimed to be, when he was claiming jesus saved him.
"profitist" is accurate in a way, it's like the American spin on fascism, well put.
Which monitoring equipment? I ask because I develop medical diagnostic devices and we are required to shield the devices from far more than potential cell or WiFi interferences.
To be sure! "Not being Bush" will carry him so far. And I think the whole Vietnam thing is a waste of time.
I've never heard him speak (I live in the EU) can he speak proper English? This is always a point of contention with my British friends, after they are done lambasting Blair for being a dishonest Bush lapdog, they point out that at least he has a grasp of the English language.
One of them recently sent me a MP3 of Bush struggling with the concept of Native American sovereignty and it was just too painful to listen to.
I guess it depends on the use: my Daughter uses it for homework, I use it on slashdot as reference. But it's not like we're using in court or anything. I guess journalists are at the biggest risk, but judging from some of the crap I see in print I don't suppose they care.
Militant: Because the United States is invading sovereign states, starting illegal wars, supporting dubious tyrants, outstrips the rest of the world, combined, in military spending and is the largest arms dealer in the world.
Fascist: Because the many of the hallmarks of a fascist society: nationalism, violence, censorship, a regimented economy & society, &tc are becoming the tools of the status quo.
Theocracy: This shift is best described in a paper from the union of concerned scientists titled "Scientific Integrity in Policy Making" which due the continued abuse by the Bush administration has a follow up. Los Furtive's GWB quote fits nicely "Our nation has been chosen by God and commissioned by history, to be a model of justice before the world.". I'll just add that the American's have this perception that they have moral authority over the rest of the world. This has been proven wrong, to the rest of the world, at Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib prison.
That you really miss the point is evidenced by your comment that Americans have elections and hence are immune to the perils of bad government. A Society ruled by a theocracy can be elected (putting aside the strangeness of the last US presidential election) because there are so many Americans that think all of what I described above is a good idea. Given the money the US spends on it's military that's very, very scary.

Still it begs the for questions can't he think for himself and maybe we should vote for his speech writers instead.
Which one... oh wait, never mind, I only read one page of the Kleine Zeitung ;)
Still I think leads typically are shielded, I wander down the hall and look.
Eventually they'll have to be more robust!

Sure they might not effect your but why keep them or pass them along? The last I checked the only AV tool for BSD was *very* pricey.
Is there an AV or MalWare tool for Liunx?
... with a flute!
oh... and with the skis they don't need a build-up runway just a groomed airstrip.
Yes!They build disposable houses in the US, I've been there & seen it.
I am wondering how it is you went from units of area to units of volume?
I just you're not miking the Gatorade with the Olde English

They must be off by default...
