How are uninsurable people suppose to obtain healthcare? And not just emergency or major surgery healthcare, but preventative healthcare?
If you don't want government involvement, then health insurance must be non-discriminatory, or else there will be no choice but to have public-funded programs to treat those who cannot afford private insurance. Or they can just get sick and die, I guess. Hey, as long as your ass is covered, right?
There is no hard and fast definition of 'liberal'. Liberal is whatever you make it to be.
I don't accept that the media is 'liberal', because most of it is owned by large conglomerates, and I guarantee that the board members and executives of those corporations are not 'liberal' by your definition.
Do you suppose the people hiring and firing anchors and reporters do not affect a bias on the reporting?
Face it: what you mean by 'liberal' is "not as conservative as I'd like", or more accurately "a simplistic label others who I identify with will use against those I don't."

Large format, lots of pictures. Not a lot of depth, but started reading these in second grade. At first it was just the pictures and captions, but as I grew older I eventually got to the narrative as well. This instilled in me a lifelong interest in science, as I'm sure it would plenty of bright grade school students now days.
However, the MVC architecture is triangular: the View sends updates to the Controller, the Controller updates the Model, and the View gets updated directly from the Model.
Which is wrong. The statement is contradicted by the very link embedded in it. In truth, the view directly updates the model and the view is modified indirectly by the model. The controller processes and responds to events, typically user actions, and may invoke changes on the model.
Robert Tilton is but one of the many prosperity gospel preachers, but I think the most unctious (though Creflo A. Dollar is up there).
For those not familiar with how this scam works, here's a snippet from Wikipedia:
In Success-N-Life, Tilton regularly taught that all of life's trials, especially poverty, were a result of sin.... Tilton's ministry revolved around the practice of making "vows", financial commitments to Tilton's ministry. Tilton's preferred vow, stressed frequently on his broadcasts, was $1,000. Occasionally, Tilton would claim to have received a "word" for someone to give a vow of $5,000 or even $10,000. When a person made a vow to Tilton, Tilton preached that God would recognize the vow and reward the donor with vast material riches.
The reason we have the impact we do on the environment is that there are just too damn many of us, and not many are volunteering to leave the party. Instead, they're inviting their kids over.
And I'm no one to talk, either. I've procreated a little more than my fair share, and my wife won't let me redress the balance. But still, global warming proves that we finally have reached the point where our numbers are detrimental to humanity's welfare. And eating less meat, driving less often, recycling more, etc. just postpones the inevitable reckoning: there needs to be fewer of us, not more.
That, or we colonize Mars. Preferably with penal colonies-- like Australia in the 1800's.
The article states that the previous drives were "independently purchased" by employees, which likely means they got permission to buy a drive, went to Staples to get it, and then were reimbursed by the state. That would mean that they are not "personal" USB drives.
>Dont worrie about it. In general, if the W3C made something, it, by definition, will suck, even if its fully implemented by a bunch of vendors
Which means all these open standards are nothing more than data interchange formats for third-party commercial tools. In order to use the standard, you have to buy a tool. Once again, open != free.
I would think the first step would be to boost the planet to an orbit further away from the sun. Speeding up it's orbit would do that, but I wonder if anyone conceived of a method of doing so?

if(something)

else

I prefer this coding style:
if(something){do_something();} else {do_something_else();}
I mean,
you don't write an
English sentence like
this
(
do you?
).
And did you do all this research at work, on company time?

I already can replay the most embarrassing moments in my life in all the detail I care to muster, thanks.

The most useful link I've seen on /. in a long, long time.
Fahrenheit?
They're likely neither unauthorized or personal.
Also... no mention of these drives being "unauthorized". Maybe the submitter needs to read the article as well.
I know... I apologize for reading the article.
Those who, cant Use Punctuation; post to Slashdot

And then I had to reread the first sentence three times, trying to figure out what word was misspelled 'prote'. Still trying.
Jesus prefers "you all", but will accept "y'all" in informal correspondence.
