I wonder if it's anything like this device. Seriously though - a pointing device that works without a surface? Possibly that old thumbpad wireless mouse (which was also used primarily (AFAICR) for powerpoint presentations? Possibly a trackball?
Sure, but it's not that black holes can't occupy a volume or they won't work. It's the density that makes them a black hole, not the amount of volume they take up. I suppose theoretically, it would be possible to have a black hole that had the actual volume of our sun. That would be one f'n large black hole though. If I recall correctly, Steven Hawking theorized that all the matter in the universe was condensed to approximately 1cc in volume prior to the big bang. Too lazy to google it though
If a black hole contains matter, then it must occupy some volume. Even if there are no spaces whatsoever between the electrons, protons, and neutrons, those particles themselves have a (really small) measurable volume.
Stompers are not remote controlled. Unless you count heaving rocks and stuff at them until they either turn or break "remote". (guess what I did with my Stompers as a kid). They are powered by a AA battery and a little electric motor. If you put a 9-volt battery in there, the gears on the motor will turn fast enough to cut through less strong material like cardboard and drywall.
Actually, GPS provides altitude, as well as position...
Unless you can't see enough satellites. Which has been my experience in many office buildings. Maybe my GPS is a POS, but unless it's right next to the window, or outside, all the concrete and whatnot block the signal. So I wouldn't want to trust my network access to that kind of spotty coverage.
For some reason, when I see these things, I reminisce about the Stomper toys. And I remember playing with those things and rigging up a 9v battery to take the place of the (relatively wimpy) double "A" battery that was originally in it. As I recall, it increased the speed and power of the little motor that came with it dramatically. In fact, with the proper modifications, it worked as a rudimentary Dremel tool, though only on things like drywall, etc.
I'm just wondering if the same would be possible with these cars?
But if I *don't* use MySQL, I don't have to "fake" locking, transactions, stored procedures, views, or any of the host of other options that I have available to me with MSSQL. Not that I'm a huge microsoft fan or anything, but if they have one product that I've had better luck with than anything else, it's SQL Server.
...I even went so far as too [sic (nice callback, eh?)] purchase a GSM Phone/PDA
I went so far as to actually purchase one. Damn thing sucked. Of course, YMMV, but I had a Handspring Visor with that Springboard phone on it with Voicestream service. It looked like it'd be really neat to have all the functionality of a PDA with the functionality of a phone.
Had the following problems with it...
Damn near impossible to dial, and no voice dial support. Trying to call someone while driving is a recipe for disaster.
Battery had a shorter lifetime than the average MTV band
Screen didn't light up on an incoming call making answering phone calls in the dark while driving a worse experience than most/.ers trying to perform a drunken no-look, one-handed bra removal

"The people who live in those neighborhoods have a right to live in safety..."
While I somewhat agree with that statement, let's add that they also have a responsibility to live in safety. The people who have no intentions of committing crimes probably are the majority (who really knows what the percentages are); however, the police can only do so much.
People have a responsibilty to make and keep their own neighborhoods safe.
Well, I *am* a RH novice. In fact I just finished installing it about an hour ago (total time about three days:-)) on a laptop for which I did not write down any hardware configuration information at all. In retrospect, I should have, but that's beside the point. In any effect, once I got it working with all of my hardware (not one single conf file edit, I might add), I have been able to successfully change the system time and burn a CD. Haven't tried to rip one yet, but doesn't seem too bad to do. I'm actually amazed at how easy this has turned out to be - should've done this sooner.

In my studies, I have found that most if not all events in the Bible (ok, the ones that are historically verifiable - like who was king, what people existed, and that kind of stuff) can be proven beyond any reasonable doubt. In fact, there are many other historical documents around the same time written by secular scholars that corroberate the events written in the Bible. It is a historical fact that a man named Jesus Christ did exist, claimed to be the Son of God, and was crucified for his trouble. That said, of course I realize that it is not historically verifiable that he in fact was the Son of God.
Popup Stopper by Panicware works well for me. Of course I'm running Windows on a PC, so if you're not, it won't help much. However, I have yet to have it not block a popup. It doesn't block the javascript - it prevents another browser from opening.
If I understand what you're saying, you're questioning the nature of free will? If so, we have been given a free will. We can do whatever we want, but we are also responsible for the consequences of those actions. In addition, we inherit the consequences of those that came before us - including our parents and our grandparents. This is a concept that some people have a hard time with - like we have to suffer the consequences even if we've done nothing wrong ourselves. However, none of those people will complain about reaping the benefits from others' actions. Something like if your parents die and leave you a heap of money, you won't complain. Conversely, if they are terrible with money, you may end up having to pay for their funeral. Not your fault, but nonetheless, you suffer the consequences.
So I would say that it's a combination of your statements. I don't believe that God left us to ourselves, nor does he force us to take one path or another. He gave us both free will and intelligence [insert joke here] and we can take whatever path we want. That said, there are certain things that we do not have free will on, but those are mostly along the lines of having the free will to decide whether or not to jump off a bridge, but not being able to change your mind halfway down.
You do make sense in your definition, but if you do accept the concept of absolute truth, then what you believe Hell to be is insignificant. Furthermore, the entire point of the Bible is that there is nothing you can do in and of yourself to affect your final destination (Heaven/Hell), but that you must place your faith in God to do that.
One can only wonder - if I'm color blind, will the fires of Hell be orange, red, or crimson?
Being slightly colorblind myself, I can tell you that what you describe is color ignorance.
I am fully aware that I can't prove the existance of God any more than someone else can disprove it. However, I also know that the downside risk of my perspective is substantially smaller than the downside risk of the people who don't share it. That said, "fire insurance" is a pretty bad reason to adopt a world view...

Genius yes. But, erm, it's Fawlty Towers. Not to be a dick, but hey, it is slashdot.
English may be like vomiting, but I defy you to come up with a better language to curse in.
this one is better - a bit more expensive, but has 64 games with capability to buy more cartridges.

And silent too for chrissake. Anyone else get irritated by that?

What about AOL? I know, I know... - how loosely do you really want to define "ISP", but certainly Time Warner would have something to say about that.
