The big problem for chiropractic care is that their are too many quacks. As you say, the mechanisms by which it works is well understood and fully supported by medical science. Unfortunately, even when people go for treatments that do work, many chiropractors will add a little hocus pocus to raise the bill.
A chiropractor told me; "if a chiropractor tells you that you need to keep going to see them on a regular basis indefinitely then they are a quack. If the chiropractor does some manipulations, gets you to come back again a week or so later then tells you that you are done they aren't a quack."
Best part of google earth is the time line, can view pictures from different times of year and through multiple years.
Try that with Warsaw and London 1945
London; you can barely see any bomb damage. I went over it with my mum who was there at the time, she was guiding me to places she claimed were 'bombed out'. We couldn't see anything.
Then we went to Warsaw. Which was like a moonscape. She was pretty horrified, had NO idea how lightly London had got off...
Or maybe it has something to do with higher amounts of oxygen in the atmosphere millions of years ago.
More likely carbon. Plants and the animals they eat them are mostly made of water and carbon. The carbon comes from the air. The less CO2 there is in the air the more slowly plants and animals grow.
I think its more that the Brits are obsessed with accusing people of sexual crimes against children and can't face the possibility of someone whose life is destroyed by such charges actually being innocent. "Can't happen LALALALALAAA I CANNOT HEAR YOU LALALALALA" kind of thing.
To me the cool thing about ORAC is the way he works; his inventor was the designer of virtually all chips in use in the galaxy. He put a back door into them. ORAC has a subspace link to them.
2 - Verify that you can restore from your backup often
3 - See Rules 1 & 2, often
Most people and businesses don't do Rule 2. Just because the the log didn't report any errors for the backup doesn't mean that you can restore from the backups.
If you don't do backups you may as well not do business. If you don't do restore tests you may as well not do backups.
Or user stupidity erases the vital data? Or malware starts corrupting your files? Or a disaster destroys the whole computer?
RAID is a great solution to hard drive failure, but it doesn't cover all of the other things that might go wrong. For that, you need a proper off-line backup that can protect you against user or OS problems, ideally one that's located far enough away to recover your data in the event of a disaster. RAID is best in addition to, not as a replacement for, true backups.
I've been wondering about this.
What if I have a RAID1 array and a bunch of spare drives. I pull a drive from the array and plug one of the spares in. Now the pulled drive is a backup and the array is syncing onto the new disk.
So long as the array does the right thing when I put one of the old disks in (ie it syncs over the old data and doesn't sync from it (ouch)) I should be able to carry on like this and maintain a backup set. Right?
But the people in North Korea have created this mess, so it's only right they take the heaviest losses.
The situation on the Korean peninsula wasn't exactly created by the Korean people. It was engineered by the Americans, Chinese, Russians and Japanese; because a unified Korea would have been so economically powerful NONE of the above wanted it to exist. Even though these parties were so ideologically opposed to each other they could still agree that a powerful Korea would be bad for their interests.
Seriously; had Korea not been divided it would be immensely powerful economically and militarily, due to mineral wealth PLUS strong agriculture and industry; a genuine rival to China and more powerful than Russia in the region. It would have been a major threat to American control over Japan following WW2 due to the sway it would have had over the post-war Japanese economy.
So between them they engineered North VS South and divided the peninsula.
Look around the office. See anyone looking at the screen smiling? They are on Facebook or socialising in some IM chat. You don't 'smile' at work unless you are a clown, and even then its usually just the makeup.
So in an infinite number of universes under an infinite number of realities... not one has a God? Interesting. God is not only unlikely. He is impossible under any reality imaginable or otherwise. Some take their faith in a complete lack of God a little to far. I find Atheists as dull and lacking in any ability at critical thought as those who think every word of the bible should be taken literally and that prayer fixes everything.
I think that an omnipotent, omnipresent God would leak from one reality to another. So if one reality has a God then all would.
Not sure you understand rfc1918, as 10/8 is listed right there as private IP space at the top of page 3... I mean the others are wrong unless bainbridge island recently became it's own country, but let's not confuse things more than they need to be!
I recently worked at a very large telco in a developing country almost all of whose internal networks were NOT private RFC1918 addresses. There were 3 blocks that they'd 'inherited' from the Korean company that had helped them get set up. There were blocks like 10.100.0.0 or 10.200.0.0, there were blocks like 192.169.0.0, there were blocks like 193.168.0.0 so clearly this was being done by people who were GUESSING about network addresses.
The place was a gigantic retarded mess. And is one of the biggest telcos in the country.
If one were a major superpower with access to this tech and if it could be used to produce huge amounts of bitcoins... and if one wanted to destabilise the virtual currency...
Sorry, I could have been more clear about the crux of the matter.
I *do* have multiple onsite and offsite backups which I update them regularly and religiously (I did have to spend two days reconstituting some data as my backup software had failed 5 days prior to this drive failure and not warned me... but that issue has been resolved and is completely external to the matter at hand)
How often, if at all, were you doing restore tests? And how complete were your restore tests? Were you doing test restores of individual files or bare metal restore tests?
Dear Mr Coward, I read through your entire post but saw no mention of MyCleanPC anywhere. Surely this is the ultimate in PC threat prevention and cure?

What happens if you have a bunch of OpenVZ 'virtual machines' running apache webservers and, on the host, you run 'killall -9 apache'?

I read that in the article, and immediately thought "what the fuck".
If he's not framed for something and on his way to a federation detention center, then count me out.
Are you kidding?
In the modern UK to suggest that someone might be FRAMED for child abuse could bring down society!
A tinfoil-covered cucumber? I wonder what that is being used for...
Taking it past 11, to 12 (inches), obviously
12 inches of ROCK!
Tinfoil does not set off metal detectors.
Yes, I have first-hand knowledge of this.
That can't be right, I saw a tinfoil covered cucumber set off a metal detector in the Spinal Tap documentary!

N. Korea attacked first. History is always an interesting read.
Who attacked first isn't the question. The whole thing was a set-up.
Unified Korea and scores of dead North Koreans.
But the people in North Korea have created this mess, so it's only right they take the heaviest losses.
The situation on the Korean peninsula wasn't exactly created by the Korean people.

I went over the report I wrote, it was 100.10.0.0 that they were using as well as 100.20.0.0 etc

yes sorry you are right about 10.100

The US is the only country in the world that taxes out-of-country income of its citizens.
Not the only country. I'm pretty sure North Korea does as well.
Please, just cut to the chase and tell us how MyCleanPC will fix everything for us.
