"Keep the right-wing ideals out of site and off of Slashdot."
Right, because opposing viewpoints, diversity and discussion are the mainstay of the left-wing. You're just as much an idea fascist as the right-wingers you despise.
Jumla may be Swahili, but it is derived from the Arabic word of the same name. So, they're trying to broaden their market.
Miro will also have to change their name now, since Miro and Mambo had the same beginning syllable. So, I look forward to seeing the founding of a new company: Jiro!
There is actually a type of paper that supports the Cornell method. Froggle on 'law-rule'. The left margin line is 2.5" from the left. A tad bit expensive, so I have made my own PDF of the format and print out as needed.
Speak for yourself. There are members of this forum that are mind readers. For example, I read your mind right now. You are thinking "What and idiot is he!"
Perhaps the most effective PDA on the market. It has long battery life. It is easy to access. Its means of data entry could reach the dozens of WPM. There are various add-on attachments that make this PDA one of the most reliable products on the market. And, the tech support of the company is outstanding.
"Google seems to use lower-resolution versions of these, due surely to cost"
No. IKONOS comes in two resolutions: 1m panchromatic, and 4m color. Quickbird (Digital Globe) comes in 0.5m and 2.8m respectively. Plus, there is also distortion caused by the lossless compression--the resolutions above are available only in TIFF.
This higher resolution shots look like they're Quickbird because you can see, even through the lossless, that there are people in front of the White House. I don't recall every seeing a person with IKONOS.
"Note that Space Imaging [doesn't] have a blanket list of sensitive US properties . .."
The USG has a blanket list, and trust me when I say the US vendors comply.
How a rational mind can be both anti-abortion and pro-death penalty is quite easy. I'm bothered that that was such a heavy slant.
It's called "pro-innocence." We believe that an unborn child is innocent and therefore deserves to live. Actually, American case law supports that notion. The old Baby M case (couple contracted to have a surrogate mother who decided to violate the contract and keep the child held to be no breach because it is preferable to welcome life than enforce a contract) is a fine example of that.
We believe that a convicted murderer--especially in this day of civil liberties and forensic science, is not innocent. Furthermore, he has deprived another of life and therefore "cannot complain when he is called to account."
I suppose the pro-abortion/anti-death penalty hold the view that freedom should be so wide that a woman can kill her child and a murderer be free when he kills. So, how is it that that group complains when they support unjustifiable killings?
Of course, we at/. know that of the 12 categories mentioned as rated categories there is a missing 13th category: interoperability with M$ Windows. If an OS project can't get that '5,' then it's not worth the effort.
I have it on good authority that it really isn't that cold in space. I IM with a fellow who was recently involved in penetrating DoD networks using 3l3t skillz who said they have conclusive data that the average temperature in space is 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Mind you, it's a little colder in winter and a little warmer in summer. I figure a pair of shorts and a Hawaiian shirt should suffice for most days.
So, why not just use the same leather work gloves we use on Earth? Or, is this just another way for NASA to get a budget hike?
My brother always gets out of his tickets. He contacts the prosecuting attorney and asks if he can plead civil. That is, pay the find without incurring the points. All they want is the revenue anyway.
Also, the reason why it seems we're guilty until proven innocent is because it's a strict liability crime. All they have to do is prove you did it. And, cops spend a lot of time doing this.
If your jurisdiction has speeding as a misdemeanor, piss them off by demanding your Constitutional right to a jury trial. They can't deny and the cost will be so high as to make the ticket not worth it.
Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, sautee it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it.
"JFK started the program in 1962, a quarter century later the USSR was kaput."
And the two have a direct relationship. That is, but-for JFK's starting the program, the USSR would not have fallen. More probably, it was the sudden military build-up during the 1980s that forced the Soviets to compete. It wasn't the space-race that beat the Soviets, it was the military-sprint.
What you need to do is get two low-guage power cords, electric tape, a wire cutter, a spade, and a flashlight. PVC tube optional.
First, measure the distance from your nearest neighbor's outdoor power outlet. Splice the two power cords so that combined they are long enough to reach from your neighbor's outlet to your connection to the grid. Be sure to splice so that both ends are male, so you can plug it in at both ends.
Next, on the next new moon, go out with your spade and slice a trench from your grid point to the neighbor's outlet. Run the newly-spliced cord through the trench. Now, if you anticipate problems, you might consider running a wide PVC tube through the trench so you can run the cord through after you have your buried tunnel. Be sure to replace any sod that you disturbed in your trenching operations.
Finally, plug the cord into the neighbor's outlet into the gridpoint. This way, you will recoup your investment much faster than 12 years.
I've noticed that it's better to put some kind of camoflaguing tape on both ends to keep either from being noticed. It also helps if the neighbor has allowed vegitation to conceal the outlet.
"Your life would be easier if you stopped watching Fox news. Al Queda's stated aims have always been "the expulsion of American Armed forces from the sacred sites of Islam [Saudi Arabia]". That's why OBL got followers. That's why they came after the U.S. It's a stupid, irrational reason, but that's religion for you."
Well, first of all, the U.S. has had military personnel in RSA since the 1950s. They have worked their to train the Saudi military. Is it a coincidence that UBL and al-Qeida started their jihadism after the 1991 cease-fire between Iraq and the Coalition Forces? We did not have troops in Mecca/Medina--sacred sites.
While I would concede that the U.S. presence in 1990-91 was abrupt, after we "got a clue" about the culture we did what we could to respect it (women stopped being allowed to drive, had to way abiyas, etc.). Americans are accused of being culturally-insensitive, but I would say no more than other cultures.
Anyway, it does not take Fox News to gain the grandparent poster's comments. Just an open mind.
"To many environmental groups, mankind is often seen as synonymous with a cockroach infestation. To these groups, any given tree or platypus has more of a right to be where it is than we, the humans, have to put in yet another road for our SUVs."
Those who have this view should put their money where their mouths are--the should kill themselves to reduce the human "infestation." Or, they should realize that if we are an infestation that we will take care of ourselves and Nature will go on.
I think many of these groups are socialist groups trying to thwart any growth of capitalism by stymying any productivity.
I highly recommend PmWiki if you have a web-server. It is both Apache (Linux) and IIS friendly. Responding to your requirements:
* HTML format to view in web browser Well, PmWiki is wiki software that relies upon a browser. The output will be HTML. The individual pages are in flat-files, and there are ways to retrieve the text without converting it into HTML.
* Available for both Windows and Linux systems Works on IIS and Linux. Since it works in a browser, it should be cross-platform compatible. I have a script that tars up the source files so you can have off-server backups.
* Not heavy duty like 'Go Live'. It is too heavy for quick, frequent use of jotting down notes. Wikis are ideal for writing. There are recipes in the PmWiki Cookbook that allow for a 'blog' type approach.
* WYSIWYG software Hmm, almost. There is a "preview" tool. But, after you write wiki markup, it gets pretty close to WYSIWYG
* Reasonable formatting options for the text and figures (gif/jpg) I include in the notes. Yep, and yep. You also have the ability to upload files, so you can archive documents and provide a link to said document on a page.
* Able to provide template (for log). PmWiki allows for templates. PmWiki is different than other wikis in that it allows pages to be freely organized in groups. You can create a different template for each group. So, you can have "Logs" group that has a specific template. If you have standard reports, then you can have a similar group for them.
* Which note taking software do you use? Depends. I use PmWiki when I want universal access (i.e., access from more than one computer). I use vi when I want quick writing for only one computer (I also use it to write up PmWiki pages).
I'm a law student, so right now I write a lot of notes. I tend to use PmWiki for them.

"I think calling it 'Micropayments" is a bit much. . . ."
How many times to I have to say this? It's not the size of the payments. It's what you're able to buy with it.
Yes, I also read that past Presidents have been making budget cuts, etc.

The real reason for the name change was because Mambo.org was already taken: http://mambo.org/.
Jumla may be Swahili, but it is derived from the Arabic word of the same name. So, they're trying to broaden their market.

What they should do is start en masse denying patents. That should chill the application rate.
Scientists publish papers to get tenure and paid.
No disrespect, but that's only 30m/pixel. Digital globe has ~3m/pixel in color. That would be something to see . . .

If there's one thing I've found out in life, learning never taught me nothing--and books is the worst.
Right. Now, write that 100 times or I'll cut your balls off. (Obligatory Meaning of Life reference)
