The answer is not really what you think here. GPS signals have a series of different transmitters. On each satellite, there are four for the military, two for civilian use, and two that work satellite to satellite. The sat to sat transmission help create the position that is transmitted to the ground radios. Adding a new position awareness for accuracy wouldn't be hard. About the article, I'm glad to have GLONASS come out on consumer devices. I use a GPS/GLONASS hybrid receiver for land survey and construction lay out. We usually get about 12 GPS and 3 GLONASS on any given site, and those few extra raise our accuracy from 0.1 of a foot to.04 of a foot.
Bullcrap. I have at least three friends that grow field greens and tomatoes in window boxes, a season's worth of greens runs less than twenty bucks and if you ask at the store they tell you how to take cuttings and keep the lettuces growing almost continuously. Tomatoes are a bit of a problem because they take longer, and you have to give up a third of it to keep getting the seeds to keep them growing. But it can be done with some space, some pots, some dirt, and some time.
Here in Savannah, GA we have one Mac shop. When I moved here, I applied for a job and was shot down before the manager even looked at the application. I was shot down because he said I didn't have enough knowledge of Apple's products to be a salesman(would have been easier to believe if he had looked at the application instead of taking it from me and saying that). As the past three years have passed by, I have watched them blow things time and again.
You hit a nail with the women part too. I can never get anyone except the techs to help me there. But if I had been a woman they would have ambled along in short order to convince me to order from Apple's web site. I was in there when the 2nd generation of iPods came out. A girl was wanting an external Firewire drive for her Window's box, and they were the only store to carry iPods. First thing out of the salesman's mouth, "It doesn't work with Window's." I corrected him and they checked the Apple site on the one internet connected computer. Low and behold, they did. The girl had left and decided to buy it from the Apple site. Fast forward to just after the 10.3 release. I'm in there checking out the game selection (not bad for a tiny store btw, and the techs really know games for the mac and how they will preform) and this woman is interested in buying an iMac, but can she share a printer (I remember it being an Epson but have forgotten the model #) with their current Window's 2k box. Salesman response, "No. You'll need to buy this to do that." Pointing to a shrink-wrap box of Dave. I caught her outside and assured her that yes, if they were on the same network, they could. But I don't know enough to be a salesman. And their manager cries to the techs that they can't get any sales because of the internet.
I know at least one restaurant that would use it. After having dealt with pricks who won't get off the phone to place an order, management has been looking for a way to do away with cell phone signals. I'm also sure that many movie theaters would also be interested in being able to make sure that no one can get a call in the actual theaters. Sure there are going to be some home users, but let's face it, for some businesses this will be a god send.
So it is unfair that people pay around abouts the same in taxes? Sure the 100k income family has more to save than the 15k, just like their example says. And while 9.75% is getting into the higher ranges, but adding an income tax has a certain amount of stupidity. Honestly have you ever heard of a politician reducing a tax?
Nope, not a bad ass at all. I'm 6'2" and 145 lbs. But I can tell when someone is scared, and this guy was scared. My point to this was, attitude will get you out of some very bad situations (the guy who I agreed with had a similar argument). You have to judge your attacker and the extent of their intent. These dumbasses were trying to mug people were not only one block from our home, but on the same block as a police station (It's on the other side of a cemetery).
"Take my cruddy old wallet with the one valid credit" Imagine if what you had in your wallet was all your food for the next week, and it would not be replaced. No credit cards, no back up funds. How serious would you take what you have in your wallet?
As this conflict with Iraq continues on, I find myself reading more and more about MacArthur's occupation of Japan. We lost the occupation in Korea even though we won the war. Why? We never committed the time or the energy to rebuild their infrastructure. Viet Nam, similar story. Iraq is not my pigeon, but since our illustrious president has decided to drag us into it, we need to commit the resources, and the man power to mobilize Iraq to be an independent state, with an open leadership. As far as using my quote, I murdered no one for my money. I tortured nobody for the iPod. And I have never beaten my fiance to keep her line. Can Saddam and his regime make similar claims?
My fiance and I were mugged less than a block from our house just about three weeks ago. After having a gun pointed at me by someone I don't know all that well, I have to agree with some of your conclusions. I did not do what he told me to do (Getting on the ground was not an option in my mind). I walked right up to the son of a bitch and got the best look I could, then I walked away. The guy with the gun had a partner who tried to beat me up, but I've been hit harder by girls on accident. The point to this was, I didn't follow their script (and that's what it sounded like, a script from a real bad "gangsta" movie) and that's what kept me, my fiance, my iPod, and my money intact. The police told me I should have gone along and did what they told me, but two days before a woman was shot and killed during a mugging at the mall. She did exactly what they told her to, yet they killed her anyway. I see no profit in bowing down to petty tyrants with little guns, who think they can steal what's mine. Or maybe I just read too much Batman as a kid.
I grew up around the Oak Ridge area. The science museum there was great. It was a wonderful balance between science and entertainment. There were two types of exhibits, real science and "wonder" science. While you could properly exhibit efficiency in a machine (all exhibits were hands on by the way, follow the steps which were based on the scientific method, and the results would be obvious to the observer) on some of the machines you could not, why you say? Because sometimes the principle for the experiment is flawed. It taught me how to build an experiment, and record the results, and repeat the experiment. Sure staring at a lengthy data report and some visual aid to the data will inform the visitor, but building an experiment, and recording results teaches as well as informs. The fact that one museum (as well as the story poster) has stated that others are using bad data, or misleading the public just really pisses me off. I love the Smithsonian (also located in DC). I love the Oak Ridge National Science and Energy Museum. I love Cape Canaveral and Huntsville's Space museums. To call them inaccurate (tantamount to lying) is low.
Alternate Columbus: And if I only wanted to see their beaches, then those ships would be the way to go.
What a machine sees and what a man relates with his words and images of a camera that he carries.....well call me crazy all you like, but I'd rather hear, "One small step for Man." than a bunch of engineers in a room going, we should have contact with images sometime this month. It's the DRAMA of exploration. The pitting of man against nature, and people WILL watch.
During highschool, my junior and senior math teachers made me tutor (I was horrible about doing day to day work, but killed the curve on tests. So it was either tutor or flunk). I found that the best way to teach these folks math was a combination of doing and showing. I always started the sessions with a two steps back, one step forward progression. Basically you build their confidence by going through easy exercises (simple X+Y=Z problems) then you add to the complexity ({XY}+Z=A), etc. I raised all my students average by two points (mostly D grade students started getting B's) It's not that they were bad at math, just that many teachers, and other tutors didn't Keep It Simple. If you can get the concept for theory across using simple numbers (1,2,3,5,9,10) then why confuse them with larger numbers?
Many of the other posters have it right you have to use it or you lose it. I find I have to apply the same formula I used as a tutor to myself. When I want to calculate something in my head, sometimes I have to back up to the previous basics that built towards the theorems I used in other mathematics. In your exercise, if the art tutor starts with paint by numbers, or shadowing some ink drawings, then has you sketch and watches where your eye goes when drawing in relation to what's being drawn, then they can help teach you to draw better. But if all they are doing is critiquing what's being done, then all they are doing is criticizing. And let's face it, most critics only help themselves feel better about what they do. Two steps back and then one forward.
The handshake was not really the true point. It is civility. A civil society holds politeness and respect in a similar regard. Thus when a policeman is unwilling to show a civil attitude, he has no respect for me as a citizen, also making me an adversary. If they are afraid of every on being a jujitsu master, then maybe they should add some time to their training academy to show them reverses and escapes. Or train them to be masters themselves. Though expecting a police officer to have a professional (read: a bachelor's level) education is a bit much, but could help. I don't buy this understand their environment. Their environment is my HOME. It is the areas where I live and where I work and where I play. If they consider it hostile then maybe they should consider a different field of work, the Coast Guard always needs more men or women. After a few months of fighting the ocean, then they may talk about hostile or unsettling.
Maybe, just maybe, if the officer had started the conversation off by asking Hibel his name instead of ordering him to produce his i.d. then this sort of shit wouldn't happen. Your prior "law enforcement" is clouding the issue. If a police officer asks my name, I'll introduce myself. "Hello, my name is....."Generally though most police that I've done this with are rude. They feel no need to state their name. They feel no need to state why they are wanting to know me. The just want to see my i.d. so they ask my name, and that's what they get, and I'm the one being "uncooperative" for smiling and stating who I am, expecting a handshake and an introduction. If the officer is rude, and simply ordering citizens around, how is it that he made the cop his adversary. Would it kill a cop to smile, or say hello, or any other civil convention? The point of the case is that an officer may not simply state a command and expect it to be obeyed. Their job is to keep the peace and uphold the law, most police I've had the misfortune of dealing with are only concerned in upholding the law, not building a peaceful community through upholding the law.
I re-read the post and it does sound sort of apologetic for the people running corporate restaurants. But working in this environment is very much like voting in a Presidental election. You have Dippy the Wonder Chimp, or Sluggy the Smiling Thug. Choice doesn't enter into it really other than apperance, thank God for the Pell Grant so I can get away from these kinds of choices.
I have to weigh in on this one. I am a F&B employee. It is entirely possible to live on 11k/yr. (I actually earn a little closer to 13 to 15k/yr) I deal with people every day who earn in the 10 to 20k range, some even are raising children on these incomes. As far as Starbucks goes, forget the 11k figure. That is grossly inflated. A miniwage employee loses 1/3 of their income to taxes, social security, and medicare. Add in company insurance and other "benifits" and that goes to about 1/2. The goal in F&B is to earn more on less. We never get OT with management approval unless you agree to a "salary" in which case your looking at being at work from open to close every day the store is open, they call this "management training". Paid vacations are usually a sham, you might get it, you might not. Now if you go to another state (like NY or WA) they have higher miniwage for F&B, mostly so those workers can survive in the big cities, get outside that and they introduce tip share. Basically they pay the staff well below minimum, they split the tips from service to raise their wages to the federal minimum, not the state's minimum. My point to all this is, you have no idea how bad it could be for you. Stop and look at everything in your home, or in your car that runs about $10-15, now eliminate all that and you get a very clear idea of how to live on less.
Wow, That is a lot of work for something that is actually far easier than it sounds. I live in a three story, U shaped, pre-war building in Savannah. We have two people (me on the third floor, and a guy on the first floor) with cable internet connections. I had two poeple on the second floor buy wireless routers that can bridge when they wanted advice on some equipment. The routers dynamically bridge the two WAN connections, and low and behold we have a rather nice LAN with about 8 computers sharing it at any time. Cost: 4 routers, two individual cable connections, 2 cable modems,6 cat5 ethernet cords, and a wireless card for my laptop. about $900 for all of us with a shared $115/month for the two cable connections. most of the folks here feel wireless broadband is fine for $15/month. They accept the microwave scramble every once in a while, and the ones who shared the cost were wanting the equipment for their own cable connection, so they saved by sharing. We get a few war drivers and some people outside logging on, but very few real security threats (I have a Siemens router that allows me to group users UNIX style, and I let anyone surf the internet, but you need an account to get on the LAN....I'm the friendly router lol). Whenever some one moves in, one of us stops by and checks to see if they have a signal, and to explain that if they want to join our internet (they always do, it's cheaper than dial-up and way way faster) they need a WiFi nic, which only runs about $50 or so around here. So if you want to buy the nics for everyone in the building that would jump the price.
In conclusion, Think of one router for top and bottom floors, two router's each for the middle floors, make sure that they can bridge a WAN connection (it will say wether or not it will on the box). Wireless NIC's for all the kiddies, and a couple or few individual cable connections. You should be all set then.
This guy had a problem configuring ReplayTV (couldn't figure out how to program it to deal with two channel 13's) so then he made a leap of faith.......How exactly did he think he could build a Linux PVR? I mean really I'm stumped here. Linux is a mature operating system, but it is not forr the brain dead, and those who give up after a couple of configuration problems.
Yep.http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/earningsq40 3/ This is the URL for that call. He takes swipes at Bill's thugs a few times, but be waarned it's a long, long call in which they discuss all of Apple's strategies for the past quarter.
And if you want to hear some more swipes at Microsoft by Jobs, then just listen in to the quarterly conference calls. http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/earning sq104/
Has this "reporter" ever done one minute of research? 2 points alone kill his article. 1. Jobs stated in the last conference call (look it up at apple.com), there is no need to work with #2 when they are #1. This was in response to weather or not the iPod would support WMA. 2. Why would Apple allow HP to rebrand their player and gut their online store? Where is the profit? I know the argument of more iPod sales, but if that was all Apple really was after then why bother with the store in the first place? They could have spent that time and money making sure the iPod worked with every format known to man.
Yes they think they can. I have had bosses tell me that I couldn't go to a particular concert or show at a club because I represented the company. I have also been fired for being drunk on my vacation while I was in town (restaurant job...didn't sweat the firing). PHB's think they can do anything in regards to employees, because they think they should be in total control. Go figure how they justify this in court for wrongful termination.
I'm tired of the house metaphor. Maybe if this was someone's PERSONAL computer then that would hold some water. But take it to the scale of what these places really are. He made it into a secured building with security guards, and went into a locked room and broke into the safe while avoiding a camera watching the safe. THAT is not someone's house with a dead-bolt, that is a business and how they would physically secure these things. So would everybody please drop the house metaphor unless we are referring to someone's personal computer. Everyone he has hacked thus far have been business, and if they go to the above extremes to secure things physically then why not on the internet?
I cruised the news section, and it had finally been updated. Lots of yadda yadda about trailers and then this: RLRT htpd tscdrb gntst My |33t sp34k is weak so any guesses?

The answer is not really what you think here. GPS signals have a series of different transmitters.

About the article, I'm glad to have GLONASS come out on consumer devices. I use a GPS/GLONASS hybrid receiver for land survey and construction lay out. We usually get about 12 GPS and 3 GLONASS on any given site, and those few extra raise our accuracy from 0.1 of a foot to
Bullcrap. I have at least three friends that grow field greens and tomatoes in window boxes, a season's worth of greens runs less than twenty bucks and if you ask at the store they tell you how to take cuttings and keep the lettuces growing almost continuously. Tomatoes are a bit of a problem because they take longer, and you have to give up a third of it to keep getting the seeds to keep them growing. But it can be done with some space, some pots, some dirt, and some time.

Generally they avoid fine dining because it takes too long when they are on duty, and costs too much if they have to leave.
Ah, but that will kill the business too. Much better to have people come in and say, "Damn, I can never get a signal in here."

After having dealt with pricks who won't get off the phone to place an order, management has been looking for a way to do away with cell phone signals.

Yep.http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/earningsq40 3/ This is the URL for that call. He takes swipes at Bill's thugs a few times, but be waarned it's a long, long call in which they discuss all of Apple's strategies for the past quarter.g sq104/
And if you want to hear some more swipes at Microsoft by Jobs, then just listen in to the quarterly conference calls.

Has this "reporter" ever done one minute of research? 2 points alone kill his article.
1. Jobs stated in the last conference call (look it up at apple.com), there is no need to work with #2 when they are #1. This was in response to weather or not the iPod would support WMA.
2. Why would Apple allow HP to rebrand their player and gut their online store? Where is the profit? I know the argument of more iPod sales, but if that was all Apple really was after then why bother with the store in the first place? They could have spent that time and money making sure the iPod worked with every format known to man.
You can find a light, 12" laptop with an average of five hours of life even with use of a DVD player for $500? Buy it and share man!
Yes they think they can. I have had bosses tell me that I couldn't go to a particular concert or show at a club because I represented the company. I have also been fired for being drunk on my vacation while I was in town (restaurant job...didn't sweat the firing).
PHB's think they can do anything in regards to employees, because they think they should be in total control. Go figure how they justify this in court for wrongful termination.
I'm tired of the house metaphor. Maybe if this was someone's PERSONAL computer then that would hold some water. But take it to the scale of what these places really are. He made it into a secured building with security guards, and went into a locked room and broke into the safe while avoiding a camera watching the safe. THAT is not someone's house with a dead-bolt, that is a business and how they would physically secure these things. So would everybody please drop the house metaphor unless we are referring to someone's personal computer. Everyone he has hacked thus far have been business, and if they go to the above extremes to secure things physically then why not on the internet?
I cruised the news section, and it had finally been updated. Lots of yadda yadda about trailers and then this:
