Better make sure your triggers are designed for set based logic and not row based updates. If the application only updates one row at a time, the trigger might very well only handle that. Bad coding, but I've seen it plenty and your mass update would produce unpredictable results in such a case.
You can't do that with ER. Two minute recap is all they offer. I found that out to my disgust this weekend when I went there to watch a show I missed because the local channels preempted the entire hour with Storm Coverage.
If I try to offload to my HTPC something tells me that network latency is sure gonna send my FPS to crap.
But, in the current world where raytracing takes a LONG time, sure you can offload all you want.
As a rule of thumb, your waist should be about half your height. You are 74" tall, so your waist should be about 37".
Secondly, you are fat, you admit it. However, you have more muscle mass than the average person. In the studies I have read about places where they implement programs like this, they make exceptions for people with large muscle mass. Typically, they allow a bodyfat measurement to supercede the BMI when it is appropriate. However, make no mistake about it - if you are 10% body fat and 250 pounds, you will live a significantly shorter life than someone that is 190 lbs and 10% bodyfat. That is just how nature works. So, you should probably be charged more anyway.
PS. I run - weigh about 158 at 5'7" and I have a hard time believing you run a 6:00 mile at 285 without basically passing out. 7:00 sure, 6:30 maybe, 6:00 I have doubts about.
You are missing the point. This isn't about firearms. It is about your medical information. Sure, this time they might use it to grant or deny you access to a handgun, but the next time it will be something else, and eventually you will be on a list of "potential problems" that they will pursue for no other reason than the fact you are on a list that has nothing to do with what the problem is. Which is all well and good, you are thinking, until you or your kid ends up on said list due to a mischecked box somewhere on a medical form or bad entry by a $7.50 an hour data entry clerk and you end up not being able to get on that plane to Hawaii for your vacation.
O'Reilly said this and he went on to imply that technology hurts the ability for people to interact with one another face to face...O'Reilly later predicted serious problems down the road
Did he also say that interacting face to face all the time hurts the ability for people to interact via technology...and that there would be serious problems down the road for old Luddites?
It depends on what you want. If you are looking for certain titles, you will be getting a specific console. If you are looking for the MOST games, you will probably be getting a Nintendo. If you are price-conscious (as virtually all consumers are), you will definitely get a Nintendo.
Nintendo is making the right move at the right time. Assuming they decide to come out with a wiii (i.e. next generation of console) faster than the others do, they will then be able to price is similar to this model and maintain their consumers. Honestly, $700 starter cost for a console is probably out of reach for around 80% of the average gamers. This is a market where you are going to make more money in the middle than at the leading edge.
itunes will die. Paying by the song is a bad model. It has only been successful because that is the only way to get music on an ipod. Now that other players are as good or better (try the Creative Zen Vision M), people are catching on that paying $15 a month for unlimited downloads is easily the best way to go.
Dec. 30: When requested, scientific information ''prepared by government researchers and scientists shall be transmitted [to Congress] uncensored and without delay."
Bush's signing statement: The president can tell researchers to withhold any information from Congress if he decides its disclosure could impair foreign relations, national security, or the workings of the executive branch.
So, he can tell researchers that they can't say global warming exists, or that pollution is causing people to die, etc.
That sounds like maintaining the status quo to you? It sounds to me like an attempt to mislead people by not allowing freedom of information.
You obviously don't understand what he means by a signing statement. Essentially, with every bill he has signed during his two terms, Bush has been attaching a little letter that says, "I can ignore this law whenever it suits me." Seriously, I would wager less than 1 in 100 citizens in the U.S. even know about these letters.
This is a president with absolutely no respect for anyone other than himself and what he thinks is right, either that or someone that has been totally manipulated by some unknown group or entity into a unilateral form of government.
So, I guess you are among the 1 in 3 people that actually has confidence in our leadership? How does it feel to know that 2 out of every 3 people think you are wrong?
Your post is just about as ignorant as they come. The press should not fear the government - the government should fear the press. If the press is not free - the only information you get is what the government gives you. Over time, that would become more and more slanted until eventually, the government would be rewriting history on a daily basis. Anyone that objected could be tried...the documents "sealed" and no one would get to talk about it. Sealing documents in the name of national security is just a cop out by the government so that they don't have to deal with public oversight of ethically/morally/legally questionable maneuvers.
So, you would say it is ok for the Police to come search you house to make sure you have no drugs, stolen goods, kidnapped 3yr olds - anytime they want?
Just because you are against druids, stealing and kidnapping doesn't mean that would be a good thing.

Um, are you forgetting that Uncle Sam has the pipe running through his sandbox? You have no idea what he gleans between your end and our end.

No, you are right on target. This guy thinks the Constitution and Bill of rights are just old pieces of paper. He wipes his ass with them daily.
At 20 inches, it doesn't need to be 1080p. You couldn't tell the difference if it was, so it really doesn't matter.
That's gotta hurt for a company catering to PC enthusiasts.
I wonder what they will say now.

How come I cannot open a new tab with the address of my current page in the new tab? Why are my only two choices "My homepage" and "blank page"??
That sounds the internet in 1994. Shame it never went anywhere either.
Mod him down. He didn't even read the article.
These are NOT high bandwidth sites. This is censorship.
So, I guess you are among the 1 in 3 people that actually has confidence in our leadership? How does it feel to know that 2 out of every 3 people think you are wrong?
Dude...I agree with everything you said. Only wish I had some mod points...
Get it straight folks...you are less safe today than you were on 9/10/2001.
Commercial TV Cards didn't even exist when they got this patent.
Half past 12? Are ya daft? It's twelve thirty!
Everyone in the US says "August 2nd" or "December 31st."
If you get cut off, hearing "August..." is a lot more informative than "the second of..."
I hear ya.
I'm a registered Republican and I've decided to vote party-line Democrat for the next 10 years as retribution on the Republican party for George Bush.
Be glad I don't have mod points.

Don't like that one...try ,http://edition.cnn.com/this one.
Scroll down, survey is bottom right.
