It's probably nothing, but there are strong rumors of the child being actually her daughter's. Who just happened to have "mono" and miss school for months just up to the time of her "brother."
And history is not just limited to what you see on MTV.
The difference today is that religion is supposedly separated from government. When it isn't, it looks very much like contemporary Iran. Which is bad, mainly to iranians.
And so are their companies, when it comes to consumer rights. They have good reason to be riled up; if the phone company makes a mistake, tries to withdraw $10k, you don't have them... well, it's never THEIR problem until you spend $20k on a lawyer to fix it. And until then, their credit rating is fucked, and should they need a mortgage, it's gonna cost them a nice $100k more. I'm probably exagerating but that's I gather. In Europe we (still) have consumer protection, because we (still) have a functioning state, despite the combined efforts of the likes of Thatcher and Sakrozy.
I'm not sure exactly why; I just learned recently that it was an exception, along with US-UK, internationally. Other than that, everything said applies here, too. I can chime in with a few informations on how automated debit works, having briefed by a banker I know. First of all, not every company can apply, and there's a vetting process before the priviledge is granted to a creditor. A background check is done on the executives, I believe. Then, most importantly, the priviledge can be revoked at any time if the company makes too many errors.
I wonder if this has something to do with the awesome victory achieve in Iraq by the super powerful US army? The meme was propped up when Chirac was telling you guys that Iraq would be a quagmire. Silly Jacques!
It has long been shown (well, at least 10 years), at least theoretically, than run time optimized code/can/ be faster than compile time only optimized code. That's because there's only so much a static optimizer can work on, because without some super advanced AI from the future it can't really tell what the code is actually going to be used for. Runtime optimization of C is impractical (although it's been done) and not that useful anyway (the gains are not dramatic), while for interpreted code it's ideal and the results are impressive. So in the end, yes, there are cases where this optimized JavaScript will be faster than the same C code.
I told my mother about these japanese crows, and it turns out that she observed the same behaviour where she lives. I didn't see it myself, but I noticed, indeed, a couple crows sitting on the side of the road, watching cars drive by. So it's at least plausible that they do it too in Europe. I have to wonder how they got the idea; I doubt they watch Attenborough!
RedHat files patents for a good reason: they are to be used as a defense against a possible Microsoft (or other) lawsuit. Software patents suck, they're absurd, but there are plenty of patent trolls out there who are busy sueing everyone they can milk, whether or not you file yours. You won't make a difference; not even in the sense that just one person's vote does'nt make much of a difference. That's not a vote. On the other hand, should you file and get a patent, your opinion wrt software patents would have more weight. You could write your congressman asking for patent reform and say "I've got a patent and I think the system is BS."
You don't seem to understand what you've linked to. No matter how you stretch it, I didn't even "correlate" anything. I used the word "extrapolate," which doesn't mean the same thing. At all. But, well, if you can't tell the difference, go ahead, vote republican, that's what you "special" people do.
Technology is my area of expertise, and I guess it's that of many slashdot readers. There is probably no other area where we can judge a candidate as well; therefore if his program sucks balls in this respect, it's probably just fair to extrapolate to the others. Besides, McCain is Bush III. He's pro war, pro war on terra, and so on.
And that makes him less of a self-righteous closed minded asshole how exactly? I've watched his interviews with Conservative guests -- he cuts them off and always seems to manage to interject his own opinions and/or commentary. In this respect he is little better than O'Reilly.
You don't get it, do you? I'm fine with Bill O' attacking any politician he wants, just as I'm fine with KO doing it.
The difference is that KO didn't abuse, insult and threaten the son of a 9/11 victim on his show. BillO did.
And because you're apparently a bit dense, let me say that this is just an example, there are plenty of examples.
Keith Olbermann attacks the strong and powerful. Those who can defend themselves. Bill O spits on the weak, the victims. He verbally abused the son of a firefighter who died on 9/11 because he disagreed with him. He is racist. He is a warmonger. He wishes people's death on air for disagreeing with him. He practices sexual harassment, and has weird fetishes about fallafels. It's not just a difference of opinion.
Obama hasn't made any major mistakes in this campaign, he hasn't said anything stupid. He looks like someone who is very confident, calm under pressure, and isn't easily pushed into saying something he would regret later. It was very hard for the media to find something to latch on to play over and over -- so they basically had to make shit up. Therefore he had nothing to apologize for. Clinton on the other hand left plenty for the media to grab. Weird emotional angles, dubious appeals to race... (Contrast this with Bush -- he gaffes all the time, but he never apologizes for it. And anyway he really gets a free pass.)
Not only do they have an insane market cap, they also have tons of cash. The former means that it would be completely stupid to buy back shares with the latter. So what are they going to do with that cash? Expanding the product line significantly would mean diluting the brand. Even buying / Starting a low end brand would have the same effect.
In fact it's damn expensive, around 10 cents a message. That's because there is no real competition: in France, the three mobile operators have been fined over €600 million for anticompetitive collusion. There is room in the spectrum for a fourth operator, but Sarkozy's best bud with the existing ones (CEO godfather of his son) and since he's such a corrupt fucker, he is doing all he can to derail the allocation process. But he's a right-wing "free market" advocate! Right!
Do you know what the word means? Why am I a hypocrite? As for having no right, well, no one's arguing he had, not even McKinnon himself. So I don't know what you're arguing against. In fact I'd wager you don't, either.
Sazkozy is just as eager to suck up to Bush as Blair and Brown; the only difference is that we usually take it to the streets when our leaders do that kind of crap.

You're funny. You have no idea what mathematics actually are, do you? Or how hard core this stuff is *supposed* to be.
How about the minor detail that their Windows has autoexec on? Or that it doesn't have noexec as a mount option? Linux does.
28Mbps, all you can get for €29.90
That also includes TV, unlimited international phone calls, and so on.
So basically you suggest doing the exact opposite of what has been shown experimentally to work very in the article?

Who is "us"? Do you include your armed forces as well? Over 4000 dead soldiers don't feel so safe anymore.

He didn't "point out", he lied. The symptons MJ Fox exhibited were those of /taking/ the medication (L-dopa), not the disease.

That's actually 2 warnings, on the 3rd strike you're cut off.
And yes, it sucks. Sarkozy is a cunt.
Except I wouldn't call it a virus, more like a genetic disorder.
