It's really the ratio of the force of friction of you body moving through the water compared to the force of friction of your arms moving in the opposite direction.
Think about this: If you try to swim in space with its near zero friction, do you go anywhere? No, you don't because there is nothing to push against.
One thing that might cause a more viscus liquid to slow a swimmer (ignoring fatigue)is the resistance of the liquid to moving behind a swimmer. This creates a vacuum and would be move force for the swimmer to fight.
I'd like to see them try this experiment in molasses so we can really see if there is a difference!
You're wrong. If you mess with one, the other is not effected. What happens when particles are entagled is that they seem to rotate, flip, spin in the same pattern. It's like an Russian and a Scott being given the same instruction manual in France and both peple start exicuting the instructions at the same time, while they move back to their home countries. They will be doing the same thing at the same time, but if you slap the Scott in the face and give him a new set of in structions, the Russian does not automatticly get a new set of instructions as you seem to be suggesting.
What you are suggesting voilates the laws of the Universe. You know, the whole "speed of light" thing.
Get a palm with a keyboard. Better yet, het a palm phone with a keyboard. You can type eveything out and then just email your work to yourself or sync it up. There isn't a need for a seperate piece of hardwar; don't waste your money.
It's difficult to force people to do things. The government has no direct control over who drives drunk and who doesn't. It's just one of those prices we have to pay for living in a society. However, if there were some sort of incentative for poeple to not drive drunk, we could let market forces do the foot work for us. For instance, if we had better public transportation and stiffer driving regualtions and fines for those who break them, we could persuade people from driving drunk while not stomping on the rights of other people.
May that particular example isn't the best one, but I think something along those lines is better than epuipping vehicles with a device that is going to be circumvented anyway.
Check at you local university. I go to Rutgers and they usually have a table near the equipment room full of equipment that they are getting rid of. I got a florence flask and a few beakers for my halloween costume (mad scientist). Enjoy your new equipment...
I don't know if this will be that great. We all know how easy it is to defeat the predictable computer AI in games like warcraft, star craft, and other games.
This means that Pearl is also legal to have sex with in most states. So, if you want to give Pearl a "pearl necklace," go right ahead. Just make sure there is no drinking involved as that might jam you up with the law
Why dig through the ground? It seems to make senes to have a tunnel a 75m feet below the surface suspended by floats and chained to the sea floot. I know that making a tunnel strong enough to stand up to the pressure at the depth would be a good deal of work, but it just might be less work than digging a tunnel under the ground under the sea. Prefabr sections can be floated out to the under construction tunnel and sunk right into place.
I'm in the NJ National Guard and the shredder we use puts out shreddings that I don't think could be put back together using this system. When the paper gets shredded it gets curled up on the eges, but since the slices are so small the curled edges overlap and make small rolled up strings. In the curling process the ink on the surface of the paper gets so worn out that flattening them and gluing to another piece of paper would not make the document readable.
OK, so they can sell a number of games while there are many being pirated and still keep a profit (even if it's a little one)? Maybe it's time for them to realize that consumers are unwilling to pay these high prices and that they should lower prices to meet consumer demand. If they lowered prices it may reduce piracy and increase profits from their current state. Honestly, they are never going to be able to stop people from pirating games...people are just too smart.
Wouldn't it make more sense for processors to be rated based upon their FLOP count? I mean; buying one base upon MHz is like buying a car based upon it's rpm rating.
And is there any program (preferably linux) out there that will do a benchmark test on my computer in FLOPS?
It will be interesting to see what tiny telcos which are miraculously on the same standard and able to communicate seamlessly will be able to do.
I agree, it will be interesting. Think about how great it would be for towns to set up their own VoIP system. This would help the most in small remote towns (like in Arizona) where there are miles between them. If the people in these towns mostly call eachother they would not have to pay some evil Telco.
I know that there are hacking conventions that take place. People from the government even go to them to see what goes on. As far as a convention about murdering people would not be illegal. The law (in the US anyway) is all about intentions. It would be illegal to have a convention to plot someone's murder. However, it would not be illegal for people to gather together and talk about the coolest ways for an indevidual to kill another. I think it would be kind of like when people get together to talk about people will be killed in a movie they are filming. Again, it's all about intentions; if you have no intentions to kill someone then there is no problem.

and that creature is such a homo.
It's "GTMO" no "Gitmo." "GTMO" is the Navy's acronym for "Guantanamo." Please, get it right. It's so anoying when CNN gets it wrong too.

I love you, IBM. I want you inside me.
What if he was chalking the DeCSS code? Or maybe the Win2000 code?
that the release of the pictures of the Longhorn rock are delayed and will not be available until 2007.

How about Camp Delta, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba?

I think I have something here.
Register the domains so that they all expire at the same time. You can make May domain month.

Apple should but GoBeProductive and develope it under the GPL. That would be phat!
but it needs a CF slot. What are they thinking?

Don't forget that they are having these systems built with some specialized hardware (e.g. it's motherboard), which costs mad loot!
How about Film Gimp? It was used in several films to edit stills. HA!
