Peak was not 14 people on monday morning. Perhaps instead of FAILING the line, pay attention to what happens over the next year or two.
I'm going to have to continue to call shennanigans on the republican influnces here -- its not even pragmatic anymore -- its just about emulating Krinkie and his merry band.
Something like 14 people is nowhere what I've actually seen.

--- Metro Transit reported that about 11,800 people rode the Hiawatha Light Rail line Monday, its first day of regular service.
The ridership figure is based on a sampling of 30 percent of all train trips operated Monday. Staff members counted the number of customers boarding at each station, regardless of how they reached the light rail line. ---
The state of minnesota spent $100 million on capitol costs. The *rest* of the funding was provided by the federal government.

Now the operating costs are far differen't -- I'll admit.
It wasn't money avaliable for a stadium or other costs.
We have insufficient highway infrastructure. Take a look at highway 252 sometime. Anoka County has one of the worst commutes in the nation and the region.
Apache::Gallery does caching, so really my box isn't doing too bad. Its all about the B/W though, but my webserver is configured as QBSS queuing on the link -- it should be the 'last' packets out on the pipe.
The dreamcast died because of shitty programming interfaces and a weird dual-co-processor design. It was technically better -- it just turned out more people found they could make games with PS2 instead of sitting around trying to figure out how to cram the performance they needed out of the dreamcast.
Yeah, too bad that sort of enthusasim for Hiawatha is translating into negativity towards Commuter Rail. I've got pluenty conservative friends who think its a decent and cost-effective option compared to Light Rail.
Even the Dems are rolling over on it. Its quite sad.
"The exemption for employees in computer occupations does not include employees engaged in the operation of computers or in the manufacture, repair or maintenance of computer hardware and related equipment."
Systems Administrators are still non-exempt. Programmers with 'high skill level' are not.
Also, from the linked page (perhaps read your sources first?):
"All of the PCS technologies try to minimize battery consumption during calls by keeping the transmission of unnecessary data to a minimum. The phone decides whether or not you are presently speaking, or if the sound it hears is just background noise. If the phone determines that there is no intelligent data to transmit, it blanks the audio and it reduces the transmitter duty cycle (in the case of TDMA) or the number of transmitted bits (in the case of CDMA). When the audio is blanked, your caller would suddenly find themselves listening to "dead air", and this may cause them to think the call has dropped."
Which comes back around to, if phones had decent microphones -- you wouldn't be expecting the rush of awful background noise all the time.
And no, they don't introduce clicks and pops -- my phone routinely goes silent -- I would blame that on crappy phones.
Uh, Its not TDMA, T-Mobile uses GSM. It 'uses' TDMA, but its not the same thing.
The problem is phones without active noise reduction. My T39m works fine with normal-voice-level on a bus. I only have issues in very windy conditions.

MPEG4 is not an 'open' standard. Its known as a 'RAND' standard. 'Reasonable and non-discrimnatory' licensing. IE: lots of money to people who locked up the IP rights.
Don't worry. Eventually you'll memorize enough about HTML and CSS that using vim is easier than homesite. I used to be a big homesite junkie about 5 years ago, but since then I forced myself to go to vi and never looked back.
Having the buttons is nice, having it all in memory is better.:)
With one of the largest Linux installs on the University of Minnesota campus I end up using packages to deal managing the machines. For optimized kernels I have some detetction to make sure SMP/non-SMP is installed. Otherwise, everything is compiled for i386.
If I were to want 'optimized' packages, it would have to be for PPro or better, nothing higher. Too many variants would be a nightmare to manage. Alternatively, only provide optimized versions of libraries or binarys that choose themseves at runtime when it matters. IE: don't worry about ls, worry about media players, computational applications, etc.
No, healthcare providers who care about volume over quality outcomes have driven this country to madness.
They can bitch about malpractice all they want, but the problem is that their peers are gaming the system in volume and royally screwing a small amount of patients. Sorry for them, the legal system awards that small amount and the groups insurance goes up. Why not take the licensing away (nationally) of any doctors in their peer group that get sued and settle *or* lose. I bet their insurance costs would go down then.
I bet thats not the case today, however. It's far easier to blame the patient for the realities of what the current insurance system demands:
The DC280-times were great. I had one, it was hands down the easiest and best color reproduction of cameras in its class.
The problem with Kodak is that they went to this stupid cheaper-parts and ease-of-use while trashing their quality aspect. I moved on and recently baught a 5MB Nikon Coolpix 5700 instead. Kodak really doesn't have a great presence in prosumer anymore.
Explain that there is massive volitility in the labor market and that you are looking for a great employer that is able to provide a stable work environment so you can get meaningful work done.
Now of course, your probally jinx-ing the deal and it will all go down the tubes in 6 months.:)

Actually, WMA is less restrictive. I've been able to *legally* take 160kbps WMA files from a music site and turn them into 128kbps OGG files with a simple windows app.
Mac's AAC won't let you do that. They Vendor Lock-in with iPod.

(well, it got 'reduced' to between big lake and minneapolis, not totally shot down yet.)
We tried to do that in Minnesota between St. Cloud and Minneapolis and the republican controlled state house shot it down.
The midwest high speed rail stuff is farily cool too, but still a pipe dream.
We also got our first light rail line in Minnesota, the Hiawatha Line. Also driven with Bombardier trains of an original design.
I took some pictures of the opening here.
96,000 people tried out the line last weekend during its debut!
