The entrenched content providers, with their legislatively protected markets, have long rested on their laurels at providing (actually) improved service - as opposed to market-speak improved ("ooh look - 100 more channels of stuff you don't care about but we can charge you more for"). The consumer has a difficult time insisting on improvement in any market when the amount of competition is so lacking - hence the need for regulation to encourage competition and improvement among the entrenched parties.
The article is the typical verbage of those who are sure they can better choose how to spend your money (time, resources, blood, sweat, tears) better than you can. There's never any thought on their part that programs that are not structured to grow based on a seed effort, rather than require continuous feeding, only "work" with constant attention from others. Teach a man to fish, and all that...
I can't imagine why an energy research organization would actually seek out and listen to national energy secretaries in developing energy analysis - can't they just publish some near-term doom-and-gloom conclusions with only selective data like everyone else?
And it's guys like you who will complain when good websites start closing down due to costs.
They weren't good if they were so overblown with ads that people looked for a way to block them.
Here's how I decided which sites to block: if it blinks, wiggles, crawls, changes, beeps, flashes or otherwise irritates my eyes in the way my old dog does when he finishes off my bean burrito, then I block ads at that site, and from those ad servers.
32 is advertised. The main thing with any safety equipment is to either have the discipline to use it regardless of discomfort, or to find something comfortable enough to make it an acceptably minor hassle to use, all the time. I found the foam ones by far the most comfortable.
they work, are cheap, disposable, sanitary, and only take a few days to get used to wearing for hours every day. I worked in a high noise environment for years, and used the "Ears" brand - they're well worth the initial minor discomfort to have continued good hearing.
FTFA: Preliminary analysis shows the bundle of DNA responsible for maleness in the Neanderthal - its Y chromosome - is very different from modern human... this might suggest that little interbreeding occurred between our own species and the Neanderthals.
How do you get from that statement to your statement that Modern Humans and Neanderthal didn't interbreed?

That's nothing - Mr. Bush pronounces it cellular ...
oh wait.
So in your perfect world, Stephen Hawking (ALS), Issac Newton (Epilepsy) and Albert Einstien (Aspergers Syndrome) would never be born?
sure they would be born - they would just be born healthy now.
There was no glorious golden age of intellectualism in America, when every boy and girl could generate Euclid's theorems and apply Newton's laws
Harrumph - well at least in my house we all obey the laws of thermodynamics.
Why does your frim need to know anything other than their credit card number?
Yeah, me too - I hate those guys.
... top-posters.
Can they please arrest some

Well, £100 fine per lost record would be a good first step.
... worthy to be afraid of.
I can't tell what the hell it's supposed to do.
I had a Larry King moment and clicked the little buttons and things, but nothing happened except Roseanne Barr became a political genius.
There are "some" politicians that can resist and for the most part do a really good job
True - I always vote for the dead politician when presented with the opportunity.
Make of that what you will..

This shit gets posted and not my stem cell research?
You must be new here.
Microsoft effort to promote the concept of intentionally crippled software by offering their own hardware ... yawn.
On the other hand, you have serious problems with comprehension.
What?

What, specifically, is being purchased?
Positive comments in technical online forums?

You peeked!
Let me ask the cat.
Yeah, and you can become a particle physicist in your spare time too.
Dang - and I picked quantum physics instead - oh well wrong/right again.
