I really liked Robocop 1... the other 2 blow. I bet with special effects and the right actors/story, Robocop 2002 the movie would kick ass. (Robocop kicks the shit out of international terrorists for 2 hours)
Big freakin' deal! So they found a reject leopard in the woods. Wake me up when they find a sasquatch.
But seriously, this "camera trap" idea is really cool. They should start putting those in other remote parts of the world. Heck, they might even be able to find that bloop thing.
I really screwed up... I accidentally hit the submit button instead of the preview button. Oops... anyway, that link is almost valid.
What my point was... if you consider that the reduction in yield is only a couple of percent for ogranic growing and you then subtract the costs of pesticides and herbicides then you probably get back to the same profitability. And, eventually as the supply of produce reduces by 2%, then the market will improve for farmers and they will see their profit margin rise again.
It is really a win/win situation, but too many people have their lives invested and don't want to "bet the farm" on a gamble like organic. (Pun intended)
I found an article a long time ago explaining why it is cheaper and more economical to grow organically. I can't find that article, however I found this "http://www.eat2k.org/research/yield_comparisons.h tml"
RC3 is much better about all those things (dont know about the profile), but I installed most of the releases up til now and eventually switched back to IE, but with RC3 there are no noticable bugs and it is fast and fun. I have been using it since the day it was released and I haven't thought once about returning to IE.
I don't care what any fanboy says. The first hour of AotC had horrible writing/acting and the second half had no plot but was "action packed"... so I would have to give AotC a 30% entertainment value for lack of any good acting but +5% for Yoda's Kick-ass scene.
Sitting through AotC was bad the first time but suicide educing the second (I assume). But I was thrilled and entertained throughout from Spiderman the second time I saw it.
It has nothing to do with different tastes of different generations... but has everything to do with the quality of each movie.
You are right. Sept. 11 would have happened but W is taking advantage of his "mental immunity" for everybody trying to be patriotic and so nobody is questioning his policies or politics (Iraq, Enron) when they very well should be scrutinized. But worse yet, it isn't just Bush that is doing this. Congress, RIAA, MPAA, and Microsoft are all using the terrorist attacks as shields of their messed up policies. Everybody is pushing for copyright laws and pro-DMCA because "terrorists" are the ones who crack programs. Also, according to Microsoft, the anti-trust case is taking resources away from the investigation of the attacks. Of course this is all bogus, but nobody of power and influence is saying anything because then the Republicans will label them as anti-American.
Hopefully, this phase of trust in our government will pass and we can get back to criticizing them when they do something stupid.
This isn't really feasable in the U.S. Our country has too small of a population density to make this really worthwhile on a federal government scale. The only way that I could see this happening in the U.S. is if each city paid for the wireless network then the Federal Government footed the bill for backbone access. Thus splitting the costs between local and national levels and making it affordable to each party involved.
On Windows boxes, I have noticed that since the RC2 Release Mozilla has become much faster than IE in every category except Jave applets. Even then the difference is minimal.
Another problem with Mozilla that was cleared up since RC2 is plug-in support. Flash and Java were both working perfectly with little hassle (no more hassle than IE) in RC3.
I think I found my new favorite browser. I was very sceptical about Mozilla being able to out-do IE but it happened, and it happened with an eye on security too.
Sorry, I don't mean to be flaimbait or a troll... but I can't just sit here and listen to that crap.
This is not microsoft's fault - ANY time a password is left blank or default there is going to be a problem. This is stupid admins (or lack of admins) not an MS problem totally.
When I first read the headline I thought it said "Fatherless Chickens" which of course I though to myself, who cares if they are bastard chickens, they are still ugly.
Um... wow... I feel like a moron. You are, of course, right. I was thinking mule, but I was looking at a pic of my sister and thought donkey. Thanks for the correction.

holy mother of God! I guess I can't subtract either... that would be exactly NINE minutes after you posted. Speaking of water-heads....
Exactly 6 minutes... it would have been sooner but I messed up and had to redo my post.

I would like to see them engineer funding for this wonderful idea. If they can do that, then they can design anything.
slashdot has articles?

Could be... but Linux isn't a good home-pc OS. Never has been.
Remember the right tool for the right job.
The only difference is that the Canon Powershot G2 costs ~$600 while the cameras that are being discussed are at most $150-200.
I would expect to get a better camera for ~$400 more.
Kick Ass!
IBM sells the hardware solution to the Government. They also sell the support for the software (middleware or OS).
Mainly, IBM receives the money for the consulting that they do prior to setting up the hardware and then the support afterwards.

You need to email this to Ari Fleischer (Bush's Press person) and have him give that speech... it is awesome.
I would have you email it to Bush... but some of the words are too big for him.

Good going Mozilla crew.

Donkeys are a human creation. They are a mix of horse and goat (forced breeding). Totally unnatural.
Read the article... it was a typo... it is supposed to be 10 Mb (small b)/sec.
Sorry to squash your (and my) dreams of having that fat of a pipe to play in.
Humans have changed every domesticated plant and animal for millions of years. Selective breeding, although slow, is still "genetic engineering."
Look at: cows, horses, dogs, chickens, wheat, corn, potatoes, goats, hell... look at donkeys... we completely f**ked mother nature in that deal.
This method of changing things in our benefit has just gotten more efficient.
