Judging from the comments there seems to be a little confusion. This is NOT the remake of Bionic Commando, the remake was released last year: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bionic_Commando:_Rearmed and was great IMHO.
There is actually a cut-off point uppwards. It's no longer a moon if the center of gravity for the planet and the moon are outside of the planet. In this astronomical sense is our moon actually not a moon but the earth and the moon make up a bi-planatery system.
There is actually a limit uppwards. It's no longer a moon if the center of gravity for the planet and the moon are outside of the planet. In this astronomical sense is our moon actually not a moon but the earth and the moon make up a bi-planatery system.
Actually the rule for being a moon is that the common centre of gravity for the moon and the planet must be inside the plane, otherwise it is a bi-planetary system. The earth and the moon is in astronomical terms actually a bi-planetary system.
I am a teacher... And you guys wouldn't believe how much stuff students just copy from the Internet, or from other students. It's important to make students understand taht plagiarism just doesn't help them. They're losing a great opportunity to learn, and to develop their writing skills and intelligence, and maybe abstract reasoning, or whatever the subject requires from them. But unfortunately, some of them just don't care -- and these will slowly, er, "contaminate" (sorry, I'm not politically correct - really) the others with the idea that "you just need pass the course". you can learn what you need "later". This kind of system helps to keep things under control (sort of), by discouraging them. I'd be happy i this wasn't necessary, but as far as I see, there's no other option (in particular for people like me, who have classes with 100 students, or something close to taht).
Of course, it's much better if you have just a few students, and can read and detect plagiarism yourself. But hey, nobody wil give me a 10 student class. It's too expensive.:-(
How will it affect surrounding wildlife to have lasers beamed through the air every which way? Will birds have to worry about being cooked as they fly?
Ok, risking to be troll I have to say, Read the fucking article!
-- "There are no fried pigeons or blinded pedestrians," Mr. Redgrave asserts.
The lasers are limited to 100 milliwats, compared to up to 500 milliwats used by the military, and have been deemed eye-safe."You can do more damage by looking directly at the sun than by looking at one of these things," he says.
The lasers have to meet public safety standards for electro-magnetic fields and power level restrictions set by the European Commission. --

This article is about an sequel to Bionic_Commando; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bionic_Commando_(2009_video_game)
Let's hope that I don't get allergic to stupid comments, because then I would die of an anaphyllactic shock reading slashdot.
I were thinking of posting an amusing reply but I will have my footman do it for me instead.

Perhaps something like this?
Nice post, but use your own uid next time Mike ;)
