When is next solar max? What are the odds of a solar flare hitting it before it orbits mercury? What ar ethe odds of a solar Flare hitting it early on in its orbit of mercury? Isn't mercury struck by solar flares from time to time?
If you block doubleclick or something else that doesn't block the content site from doing its own adds. Besides the add company is also getting a record of what sites you go to. My TV doesn't record what I watch; Why should doubleclick keep up with were I go? So I block them. Mozilla has the nice feature of "block images from this server" I hardly see any of them anymore.
No it makes it no different than Canada who put a tax stamp on all comm gear. Check that. Canada is worse since they bully the manufacturers into buying the tax stamp for ALL their comm gear including stuff that is shipped to the US so I end up paying their tax.
Thank you everyone who has helped MS with this marketing survey. If you didn't realise that the "leak" was something intentionally floated by MS Marketing to determine what the impact on sales would be if they dropped backward compatability; consider yourself taken. Next time at least see if they will pay you for your participation in a marketing survey.
Have you any clue as to how many years more advanced than Linux Solaris is at the high end?
Linux development years or Solaris development years? I bet its a lot of the later but not very much of the former; i.e. Linux development is much faster than Solaris development.
Yup we used to use big old station wagons for all of this. Then in the 1970's congress imposed fuel effency standards on the auto industry and that killed the station wagon. Can't make the CAFE numbers with lots of big cars. So people started getting SUV's because they fall into a catagory that can get worse mileage. This is what is known as the Law of Unintended Consequences. Congress passes a law mandating better fuel economy. Overall fuel economy remains the same. If the law had not been passed maybe we would all still be driving station wagons, but they would get better gas mileage than the SUV's and overall fuel usage would be lower.
Congress and the greens haven't learned the lessan and are trying to get CAFE standards that apply to SUV's changed, i.e. mandating better gas mileage. This will probably push everyone int pickup trucks and not actually have any big affect. You know a better idea all around is to mandate methanol be sold instead of high test gasoline, and make all vehicles flexi fuel. Then it will be a seamless changeover to fuel cells. But I am sure there will be some other unintended consequences of that too.
The system was tested over a 2-year pilot program and produced results virtually identical to those of trained readers.
Every essay I have ever had scored had over 60% of the grade based on political bias of the scorer matching the conclusions and assumptions in the essay. So what is the PCA(Politcal Correctness Algorithm) they implemented that allowed the results to be virtually identical to those of the indoctrinated^h^h trained readers?
Of course since Canada doesn't keep an up to date military and depends on the United States for defense, this is not a good comparison. You get benifits from taxes paid in the United States to a level that you don't give.
Oh and lower wages/standard of living, but don't worry there is the higher crime rate to make up for it. Don't insult any designated victim group either or you can be arrested for "hate speech." Of course the socialized medicine is good, except when you need surgery or have cancer. Other than that nice place, but cold climate.

There is no 'Disney' solution to the problem.
Why? Don't you think that a Disney camera crew could herd them off a cliff and film it for a "Wild Australia" movie?
Take a look at this story about H1-B visas and outsourcing and then get even madder at him. The high tech companies imported over 600,000 H1-B visas while laying off 500,000 people in IT. Pissed yet?
According to the fact sheet, this is meant to put out fire by lowering the temperature below the burning point, not by preventing oxygen from combusting the fuel. So it is the same thing, in fact.
The model does not take relitivistic effects on the velecity near c. I put one in at 310000km/s and it still calculated and that is over 1c! So at the speed of light we are much worse off than shown.
So I guess that is why America gives more to world relief organizations than all of the rest of the world combined. That is why whenever there is a natural disaster anywhere in the world the U.S. send aid immediatly and in larger numbers than the rest of the world? What does that gain us? Your contempt apparently. And yet we still send aid. American doctors still travel overseas to help people and pay their own way. Just today on Drudgereport is the story of an American doctor who went to Romania to remove a 176lb tumor from a woman. Guess our for profit helth care works.
If not for profit health care is so much better why are over 80% of new medicines developed in the United States? Yet another area where the U.S. improves your life, and yet we only recieve contempt for it.
I hate hearing about how much better Europe and the rest of the world is when it is 150,000 troops in Europe protecting your sorry asses. Europe is larger than the U.S., has a larger economy and more people, but cant afford a military of its own and depends on the U.S. to bail it's ass out in the Balkans. One of the twelve Carrier Battle Groups in the United States Navy is more powerful. than all of Western Euprope's Navies combined. So when genocide happens in Europes back yard, in the Balkans it falls on MY taxes to bail you out, and then you lecture ME! Grow up you socialistic weanies! America is not going to always bail your asses out of the fire. We may let you lie in the bed you make next time you try to appease evil.

I suppose this should put a steak in the heart of OpenVMS, and now we can say VMS is dead now also? That will be at least one positive result of this.
They want to get it right the first time.
We are talking about Service Pack 2 here right? Doesn't that make this the third time?

Because I played one in California in the mid 1980's. At the time I just thought it was some old defunct company. Hare and Wolf is just too familiar.
I see everyone left their sense of humor at home today. Especially the moderators.

We need more regulations so that they will be safe in crashes!
That should quell demand for these false economy hybrids.

Methanol is more useful for fuel cells anyway.
Shouldn't that be 11Mm?
