Most people I know go straight to the keyboard right when they start on a particular segment of code. If, however, you work it out on paper first, it's likely that: you will find problems in the code easier; you can see the big picture easier; with proofreading, the code will be somewhat stable before you type it; you'll be more familiar with it. As a result, you'll likely actually do significantly less typing and, especially, mousing around (the real wrist-killer) to track down errors, not to mention end up with better code.
In some cases, a good chiropractor can clear up carpal tunnel (or at least some conditions that are diagnosed as such). It may be years of built-up tension in the wrist, which can be alleviated.
emusic was nice, and I found some really cool stuff there. However, they seem to have entirely stopped adding new stuff in the past few months, at least the stuff I listen to, so I've cancelled my subscription. Lately, I've been quite happy with Live365 internet radio, as long as I'm at my computer.
I can't help but think this (and similar issues) is in some small way a lost opportunity for academia, which likes to pretend that popular music (i.e. music that people like to listen to) is somehow less valuable than "serious art music." Here, we have thousands of people who could be leading intelligent discourse on music, many of whom like popular music but won't dare say it because of an unwritten stigma that popular music is "low brow". Because of this, a potentially vocal, educated population that could be smacking RIAA execs upside the head now and again, or at least crying foul, instead relegates itself to the "classical" niche, often the "new music" sub-niche. Said people actually do speak out from time to time, but are so isolated by genre that they seem rarely to be noticed.
As one of said people, please excuse me while I return to my clarinet practice and writing my string quartet.
So instead of people blaming the HUGE record industry that produces crap, they can blame a machine! Sounds like a scapegoat to me. Either that, or the record execs are SO STUPID when it comes to music, that they have to get a machine to help them out.
AirFrance A-380 Flight 3842 to Paris will now begin boarding rows A39 to A57 at gate 34. Passengers not already in line are advised to enter the end of the queue, located in terminal G, just past the third McDonald's on your right.
What, you don't think a show of spending 6 hours on the couch reading a book in order to cook dinner without burning down the house would make good TV?
If you'll recall, in the episode where they time-traveled to 20th century Roswell, the interrogators ask Zoidberg why he came to this planet, to which he responds, "I ask myself the same question every day." Also, anchovies went extinct shortly after his species made its way to earth.
There was a suit filed, in Canada IIRC, over just this a while back. A farmer's crops were found to include GM plants matching those engineered by a nearby company (the seeds had blown onto their land). The company demanded that said crops (and I think the land they were on) be given to them as damages. I don't recall how it turned out.

Once it becomes financially viable (start now by depositing a penny into a savings account), perhaps a restaurant could be built on the asteroid?

Did anyone else read this and think, "Well, I'm not overweight... so I can go really fast?"

More likely, it'll be reprogrammed to reenact some Three Stooges schtick.

He's like George Lucas, except he screws up someone ELSE's stuff.
Again excuse my ignorance, but I haven't watched UPN for years.
Nor has anyone else. You answered your own question.
I'm guessing WWE Smackdown is their highest rated program at the moment.
With Nemesis as the last "even" Trek movie, only time will tell what a suckfe^H^H^H^H^H^Hdelightful gem this next "odd" movie will be.

As a musician, I still take offense! I prefer referring to such hacks as "Performers."
With that logic, every piece of music put out by the RIAA in the past 10 years should have been a hit.

or? I'd say "and"
All this talk of "welcoming our new overlords", combined with lab rats, brings about flashbacks of a certain Pinky & The Brain episode
"I am the OoOoOooOOoOOOOVERLORD!!!"
The leading cause of death in old people is, after all, robots!

Drat, it would help if i would RTFBlurb.
