Don't be so sure about that. For 2 years I was a single parent on welfare/food stamps going through school until graduation. Currently I work directly on Orion as a software engineer, my job likely being saved by the change in stance Obama has just (or at least will tomorrow) announced. And I've much more than paid back in taxes what I took out of the system.
Don't be silly. The last election was about getting rid of Republicans. Otherwise there wouldn't be this backlash, things would have been passed, and there wouldn't be a Republican Senator from MA right now. The idea of health care reform may have helped, this current mess of it deserves a new pulse to be taken.
In less than 8 months time the entire House will be up for reelection. This is a critical issue and at this point everyone points to their own polls to pitch their case and prove the population wants what they want. Let the results of the House elections decide the issue once and for all who wants and who doesn't.
As anyone who has been on the Hoover dam tour can attest the generator room is noisy as hell and because of locality to the grid would seemingly be an ideal place. But compared to the whole, how much power could a fuel cell really produce out of it? Is it really worth it?
Find a single piece of other evidence in the article. More horrid journalism. An article to support a catchy title while not actually telling the entire story.
And again I think this is some sort of sensationalism here. Blood from dog, blood from crime scene, exactly what is the point of said DNA database? The article and this slashdot posting in general wants to make us all assume that the UK has a database which eventually will have every pet dog in the UKs DNA in it. Because well, that sounds kind of scary. In fact I think if you really look into it this database is really simply used to identify dog breed and characteristics from DNA. So they could confirm that yah, the dog at the scene from a staffie. And the dog you are looking at is a staffie. Well duh! Now they may have used some of the processes to collect the DNA to make sure the bloods were the same, but that's not quite what they want us all to think went on.
I understand British law is a bit different but in the US the blood would merely be circumstantial and wouldn't hold its own. While I do buy that it was part of the evidence that would warrant this guy as a prime suspect, there's no way you can convict on it alone. After all, the fact that the dog was stabbed could just as easily lead one to believe that this guy and his dog were actually trying to intervene in the kid being stabbed.
Unless its in the TV who cares

Until it's integrated so that you can overlay or window the web over whatever you are watching currently I have no real desire for the web on my TV. It's nice to do in between innings in a ball game, but I don't want to have to go changing input sources to be able to do it. I nice windows system ala PiP without choosing the source, or even a way to control the transparency of the browser and plop it over whatever you have actually on TV would be great. To do this is has to be integrated in the TV, not as an add on box.
The question becomes exactly what is the deliverable. Sometimes it's defined as the executable/program, sometimes the source, sometimes both. Which it is is defined in the statement of work/contract. I think if its not clear exactly what you are supposed to be working to then it's a pretty good assumption that whatever you did while you were on the clock is theirs because in reality they are buying your time, not a product.

Oddly enough he actually had a book made into an HBO movie recently. It even had Jeff Bridges in it. So I guess he's still alive, although only seems to write about dogs because they'll tolerate anyone who has bacon bits.
Consumer fraud and price fixing are a big part of what Attorney Generals in states look into. Not reading the article I'm going to say there are probably some tax issues as well. I'm also going to say that they are probably breaking some of the stipulations of the contract that the original sellers place on any tickets that are bought.
Like it or not (most agree this is even ludicrously high), the original ticket issuer has set the fair market value for ticket.
The last few mass murderers I've seen have all been bunny hopping from place to place throughout their entire massacre. Where else do you pick up such skills?

Knowing how to code is easy. Being a decent software engineer isn't. 90+% of web developers fall into the first category.
I actually like this idea as I've thought of building a web based guitar pro that would work on an android for some time.
This was done the old fashioned way using remote submersibles and capping the pipe with a valve.
I agree. Sounds to me like they've fully embraced the Open Source mindset. They probably have to get rid of 75% of their documentation though.
All her neighbors now know she is the one who isn't cleaning up after her dog.

Pay the kids to go into the library :)
You mean like saying it has to be shipped as a hazardous material? :) Hey, maybe he got 1 out of 3 right.

Watch me plug these cables in. Now where's my 6 figure salary because computers are so hard.
Why not just add it to the census. :)
Yet you still took ~$350M dollars from the US/Marshall Plan. That goes a long way circa 1950.
It's amazing what you can do when your country is bombed into oblivion and then rebuilt (largely thanks to those who bombed) within the last 70 years.
Right, because of all the things ailing this country we need to tackle internet speeds. Nice waste of my tax dollars.
oh please. its around 3-5k
