Wow, the counter at the bottom says 500692 people have visited that site! How much of that is due to the slashdot effect, or are there that many women in search of modest clothing?
I think it's almost certain that she authorized it directly because she apparently announced the investigation and made accusations of leaks at a board meeting. The result was that Perkins abruptly quit.
On the other hand, Oracle could want Novell so that they can make Novell no longer back IBM on the SCO vs. IBM case. This would potentially leave Oracle with the only legitimate Linux distribution and stack of enterprise software. It may be an added bonus for Ellison's ego and too sweet an opportunity to pass up.
The difference the Internet makes is that your community is now not just your town, Alabama, or New York, but the world who should decide what's obscene. Unfortunately, who really has an effect on the community definition of obscenity will usually end up being whoever is loudest/richest from a small minority of the world, but at least that's better than an even smaller minority of the world (i.e. SCOTUS).
It _would_ be interesting if this gene was correlated with the upbringing as you suggested. If your father had this gene you may be more likely to be in a poorer environment for reversing the effects this gene would have on your IQ. So, it could have a negative feedback response on you progreny which would accumulate over time. This might account for the significant difference between the two groups (the difference grew over generations). This might also account for why there was a wide variation in IQ of people that express the gene. Maybe a lot of the parents overcame whatever defiencies this gene would have on the lifestyle they could give their kids.
This is slightly off-topic, but I was wondering if anyone is aware of any generic web-frontends for MySQL? I can write something pretty easily that's not generic, but I'm particularly interested in something for a novice user who doesn't want to program anything. Something that can generate reports based on specified queries, that was customizable, etc.
Just wait until al Qaeda cells start stealing movies and/or music to collapse the "imperial" American economy. Then the government will put the smackdown on them.
As opposed to a longtime user of MS Office? Is an objective reviewer expected to be completely ignorant with respect to the use of both OpenOffice and MS Office?
You've probably heard the term "running around like a chicken with his head cut off." It is possible to have motor control of your body without most of your brain since much of your basic motor control is in the brainstem and spinal cord. Here's an interesting story
Take a look here for an answer to your questions. I don't think it surprising that innovation per billion people has decreased, because a large proportion of people that have ever lived are on the planet right now. We'd have to be _really_ innovative (exceed population growth). In the last hundred years or so, we have TV, phones, radio, airplanes, rockets, nukes, computers, the Internet, etc., so I think the number of innovations per year have certainly increased. The per billion quantity will throw everything out of whack especially when much of them are in under-developed countries.
Except this is paid for by the Planetary Society, so who knows if they'll build another one. I suspect they will, but it's not because Russians are involved.
I came to a similar conclusion. Rather than Intel demonstrating a clone to compete with the Mac mini it was probably just a prototype to impress Apple that got leaked. From the press, it seems that Intel has wanted Apple for a while, not the other way around.
When I was at Clemson we called them Ticket Witches. They used to drive around in those enclosed carts with one door on the side. I heard rumours of an unofficial sport called Ticket Witch Tipping -- kind of like cow-tipping -- which would trap the parking people in the carts.
He said he'd been there 6 or 7 YEARS. I think he needs it on the resume.
And that alone should impress employers. I think an employer would care little, if as the grand-parent stated, that the boss just resented him leaving. That seems like the most plausible explanation (from the new employer's perspective). Clearly, he was a good and reliable employee otherwise they would have gotten rid of him long ago.

On top of that the Cell Press journals have one of the more open policies of commercial high-profile journals where they open up free access to journal articles for everyone a year after they're published. Compare that to Nature or Science. . .
No sorry, we'll all miss it by at least one year. Personally, I'm betting Newton was right.

Uhh, that was mastered many years ago for TV sitcoms without live studio audiences.

This preview over at IGN may answer your questions.
This sounds a lot like what happened to the girl in Eyes Without a Face. The theme of the movie is very similar to the theme of the article.
I agree this is great for me for similar reasons. Does anyone know if you have to have a cable subscription to view these? The articles don't say.

And it seems like if they were smart they'd use Google to find these other sites and send cease-and-desist letters, etc.

That may be true, but at least in this case he's wrong wrt the price of software.

Yeah, this probably means they knew that the .NET framework wouldn't work for some reason as a basis for an OS.
It would be like watching half of The Godfather II and then watching original Godfather beofre going back to the rest of II.
Which is not uncommon.
