I submitted a story on this that was much more skeptical and it was rejected.
First, since when does Robert Park's view represent a consensus in the physics community. Second, I have read the patent, and while the theory is a bit flawed, I posit a theory that is more consitent with current theory:
Collapse the space between you and a gravitational body far away from you relative to one that is close. This puts you in the shared gravitational well between the two, and decreases the distance you have to travel, to boot.
A problem I see increasingly is that people build devices and come up with poor theories to describe the device's workings, then established scientists come in and say that the theory is unworkable, which it is, but then falsely conclude that the device isn't doing anything significant of study. Then there are the "testers" of devices that come in, find a part that doesn't work like they expect, falsely conclude the part is faulty, repace the part with a conforming part, and of course the device doesn't work like it would if they ran it as it was, and then they declare, "See, the device doesn't work!"
Most anything a machine can do can be done by throwing enough humans at it. An oversimplification probably, but there are things you don't want humans doing, there is always something else a human can be doing. Plus there isn't that pesky ~18 year dev time for a human being. In old days they used to have a person devoted to operanting an elevator, now there isn't one. Somehow I don't think that was about replacing humans either.
Samus's attire in that photo is after she's done with the mission and can kick back. Her mission attire is more rugged. The Nightelf is wearing clothes that she probably wears on missions. One can only conclude that Samus is a fragile flower in comparison. Also compare Motoko Kusanagi who lives in a freer society than the United States, and is extremely rugged, and even Lara Croft.
From what I understand, it means the problem that when you view at an angle, the picture starts to break down, which happens even in 2d pictures in some LCD monitors.
"My name is legion for we are many" is a quote from the Bible Mark 5, vs. 9. and "smoldering hoof" is from one of the mythical forms of Satan and the notion that Hell is hot.
And before I read the article, I thought higher numbers were better in Intel's naming scheme... And the average buyer has less of a grasp of the situation than I do. There should definitely be a lawsuit in the works against Intel for misleading the customer.
scrap the monobase! base 2 and base 16 aren't that hard to work in, and one doesn't really get thinking out of the box until they start thinking in prime bases. But counting on your fingers where bits are indicated by whether or not the fingers are touching the thumb is easily feasable, and provides for greater range of finger counting and is consistent with the concepts of the modern-day world.
On the other hand it is so much better than 320x200x256. Those are rectangular pixels by the way, never knew why they just didn't put bars at the top and bottom of the monitor.
Change their password every day and explain to them that it will keep changing until they stop complaining... in fact, even better, log them out after x minutes of inactivity and automatically change the password, and e-mail it to you, so you are prepared. That demonstrates to them not that you are annoying, but that you have complete control of the situation. Reminds me of the Twilight Zone where a guy creates people and things by speaking into a tape recorder and the person or thing persists for as long as the tape does. Rod Serling comes on, and the guy shows him his tape. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_World_of_His_Own
If somebody asks you to do something, tell them "no". If they leave stuff in your area expecting your to do it, drop it off in their area. If they start talking to you, and you don't want to listen put on some music. You also have the option of relocating elsewhere. Generally these actions result in the performance of the guilty party to drop. One reason is because they frequently start out asking for a big workload figuring they can farm it out, but there are other reasons that are similar.
I don't swear and I don't throw things. I don't believe in them as a useful thing to do and I don't accept them as a natural consequence of being abused and feeling dispair. I don't justify doing such things, and justifying it is part of the system that keeps that behavior happening. Excuses, excuses, I hear them every day.
Besides, it will make writing drivers for prototype devices easier. There are plenty of areas where you want to move the stability/convienience/possibilites point around.
Personally, I think DNS should be handled by P2P. There can be central people that each have their own core database for people to go to. People then can map those entries into their own namespace. Don't like where a Domain name goes to? You can make your own personal entry point to wherever you want. Different social groups can have their own databases that point to different core databases as authoritative. It would be like a comunal HOSTS file in some instances. If I'm a fan of Microsoft, I can let Microsoft decide where all my Linux related DN's resolve to. If I'm a fan of Linux, I can let Linus decide where all my Microsoft related DN's resolve to. If I'm neutral, then I let Microsoft resolve my Microsoft related domains and let Linus resolve my Linux related domains. It isn't as hard to do as people make it out to be.

I wouldn't be surprised if that's true in other areas of insurance as well.

Yes, on both counts. Details in my prior post.

Tron was Allan's (Bruce Boxleitner) program, thus if they are using the same person we're looking at Bruce Boxleitner.

You start a new process linked to the new glibc for every old process then pass all the data the old processes contain to the new ones.

They're saving up Enlightenment instead of putting it to good use figuring out what makes sense to do.

My current search problem is having to sift through all the sites that duplicate wikipedia content.
Also, sites have gotten better at being able to fool google with non relevant terms.

Let the Windows source leak downloading commence!
But this also bodes good for the Tcpip.sys and UXTHEME.DLL patch, as well as all the other patches out there.
I read it as enhance the stability of the kernel with a driver written to an API, as compared to the kernel with a driver written without an API.

Biff Standard's software is called SynchroniCity, which is eerily similar to Singularity, considering SynchroniCity came first.
