There is no doubt at all that, of all the Services, the Air Force has the most intelligent enlisted people. This is not just opinion, it's provable fact:
Take the Army, for instance. When the stuff hits the fan, the young Army private wakes up from a bellow from the First Sergeant. He grabs a set of BDUs out of his foot locker, gets dressed, runs down to the chow-hall for a breakfast on the run, then jumps in his tank. Pretty soon, the Platoon Commander arrives, gives him a big salute, and says, "Give 'em Hell, men."
Now take the Marines. When the stuff hits the fan, the young Marine recruit is kicked out of bed by his First Sergeant, puts on a muddy set of BDUs because he just got back in from the field three hours before. He gets no breakfast, but is told to feel free to chew on his boots. He runs out and forms up with his rifle. Pretty soon, his platoon commander comes out, Gives his Marines a Sharp Salute, and says, "Give 'em Hell, Marines!"
Now take the Navy. When the stuff hits the fan, the young Sailor is eating breakfast in the mess room. He walks 20 feet to his battle station, stuffing extra pastries in his pocket as he goes. There he sits, in the middle of a steel target, with nowhere to run, when the Captain comes on the 1MC and says, "Give 'em Hell, Sailors! I salute you!"
Now the Air Force. When the stuff hits the fan, the Airman receives a phone call in his off-base quarters. He gets up, showers, shaves, and puts on a fresh uniform he had just picked up from the BX cleaners the day before. He jumps in his car, and stops at McDonald's for a McMuffin on his way into work. Once he arrives at work, he signs in on the duty roster and proceeds to his F-16. He spends 30 minutes pre-flighting it, signs off the forms. Pretty soon the Pilot, a young captain, gets out and straps into the Plane. He starts the engines. Our Young Airman stands at attention, gives the Captain a sharp salute, and says, "Give 'em Hell, Sir!"
The greatest mice I've ever used In trackball and The mouse I've never found a more natural feeling mouse/trackball pair. I prefer the trackball because my desk space tends to be limited.
Concur. After 3ish years at Wendy's I was offered a Store of my own. I elected not to go that route, even though I would likely be earning as much or more than I am now.
Perhaps you should look at their history of producing stable software as a comparison. ISTR that there were some early adopter problems with some of their software.
What microsoft mouse are you talking about? The one(s) I use are well over 10 years old, no longer in production and are the most comfortable and useful pointing devices I've ever used. I regularly use both the Trackball and mouse versions of the original microsoft intellimouse, and also frequently see the trackball version going for as much as $60US for a used model on EBAY.
IF you have a need for a system that will fail Off, then usually there are liability, safety, and risk waivers that must be signed. For example... Hotel doors are either battery backed, and will fail open, leaving all rooms accessible from the outside.
Not if you have a good bank to front the cashier's check. People do it all the time, and the dealer doesn't know if its a loan check or a cash check.
That being said, if you can afford cash for a 30k+ vehicle, perhaps your investments pay better than your loan rate, and you might want to keep the vehicle financed.
I've walked home through some of the worst parts of a major US city(500K+ population) in the worst parts of winter(in New England) after 2PM due to job requirements.
These places make their money running scams pure and simple, I have been to one ONCE in my life and after taking 15 minutes to drag the cash price of the car I wanted out of them, and noting that it was 175% of bluebook on that car model and mileage, I never went back. You shouldn't need algebra to figure out how much a car is going to cost off the lot. And yes, I can do the math, but I shouldn't have to until I get to financing.
Me: How much is this car? Duckling scammer: How much do you want to pay a month Me: I want to pay cash DS: We don't usually sell cars that way ME: Well thats how I want to buy. DS: $8699 ME: Really? Well alrighty then, have a nice day
IF the video game industry, from the manufacturers to the distributors to the sales drones would self regulate based on ESRB recommendations, Then there would be no push for these laws.
Hopefully, the Video game industry will follow the example of the movie industry and implement effective self control before these laws come into being.
Actually, its legal to drink with your kids in more states than it is legal to smoke with your kids, because most of the harm from alcohol is secondary effects.

Information warfare has been part of the military mission for at least 15 years. You may choose to believe otherwise. Google for more information
I think you meant, During any given week, Dell Sells a similarly specced laptop for $399.

Anywhere I buy tomatoes, they are loose and you can select the ones you want, making the "defective" ones the Supermarket's problem.

Cotton fiber paper is still paper.
Like 8 hours a day of work, and eating and sleeping. Because you know, unemployed people and insomniacs can play for 14+ hours a day.
Most electronic doors are required to fail on.

NO they won't.

How is not enough life insurance NOT a controllable factor?
Thats funny, There aren't many guns that are less dangerous than a mac-10.

Those plastic bags are also great for incidental use in those Bathroom tiny cans.
That may be true, but you can block that by bidding 21.01. Then you can't be beaten under 22. :) It seems to be a "bug" in the proxy algorithm
Nah, Astroglide or Graphite.
Sony policy, is that they MAY delete characters after 6 months. HOWEVER, in 6 years of Everquest, no characters have been deleted for inactivity.
