Now can you name me a single scientist who denies the existence of gravity, that you deem to be qualified enough to have their theories and research taken seriously?
Now can you name me a single anonymous coward who denies the existence of hyperbole, that you deem to be qualified enough to have their theories and research taken seriously? Because that's essentially what you just asked. It's nonsense, and exactly the type of inflammatory garbage that the AGW believers are constantly proselytizing.
While I agree that there should be a more grand purpose to manned spaceflight, getting grade school children interested in newtonian physics through demonstrating the principles in a compelling way isn't a complete waste.
Or you can follow the whitepaper that Apple published in 2009 about extending the Active Directory schema to support Managed Client for OSX (MCX) policy with the infrastructure you already have.
That sounds like a BMW problem, not an iPhone problem.
I've had an iPhone 3GS, an iPhone 4, and now an iPhone 4S which was provided by my company that all worked flawlessly with my BMW 335i. I pair it over Bluetooth, and it works. No updates, no bullshit.
I have plenty of coworkers that use their iPhones with Bluetooth in Chevrolet, Mercedes, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Nissan, etc. No problems.
Or they'll see that they paid for an ASCAP license, and close the file. This is the artist crying because he doesn't like the candidate, and he has a pulpit to yell from.
So let's not only screw people trying to buy cheap Chinese products that there are no locally manufactured alternatives to, while at the same time eliminating a growing market (read: jobs) for stuff we do make here by making it more expensive for a billion potential customers?
I'm glad that you're not an economic advisor to the White House.
Unfortunately, Symantec just finished purchasing and absorbing the Altiris Client Management Suite.
Guess what one of the changes was in the latest major version (7.1)? You guessed it: a wholesale replacement of the existing remote control applet with PCAnywhere.
Once again, Symantec buys a functional company that makes a decent product, and then proceeds to ruin it until no one buys it anymore, then they go acquire what everyone moved to so they can ruin that too.
It's like financial speculators, only worse: They add no value to the commodity; in fact, they subtract value from it.
Good point. However, the B-52 it was launched from was already above half the altitude this balloon burst at, and B-52s aren't exactly the height of today's aviation technology.
The claim of 3x the whatever of a jet is complete crap.
Well, for one thing, orbit isn't about altitude. It's about matching horizontal velocity to the perpendicular force of gravity, so that by the time gravity would put you into the ground, the ground isn't there any more. Altitude helps, because gravity has a lot more work to do at that distance.
Technically you could orbit at 50,000 feet of altitude if we didn't have an atmosphere and you had sufficient horizontal velocity.
NASA's X-15 hit 354,200 feet in 1963, after being launched off a B-52 (also a jet) at 45,000 feet. This is the author's "Libraries of Congress" moment.
I've played both SimTower and Tiny Tower. They can only be described as a "remix" if you go to a high enough level that all you can see is that both games have commercial tower construction involved.
In Tiny Tower, you manage all of the people in the building, as well as what each floor is doing - what the stores stock, who works where, who lives where, etc.
In SimTower, you just put in the "zoned" space, and people move in and pay you rent. You manage the building from a facilities perspective, screwing about with elevator timings and where the box stays in the shaft when no one's in it. You manage traffic flow within your building so you don't end up with pissed off people that just want to get out of your building at the end of the day.
They are quite different games. In fact, after finding Tiny Tower, it inspired me to fire up DOSBox with Windows 3.1 and play some SimTower.
How exactly does it not apply? The definition of 'arrest' as it pertains to the law is to be restrained under color of law. Uniformed officers of the federal government detaining you comes pretty damn close to that definition.
Oh, and they detained him while "going to" "attendance at the session of [his] respective house" in the Congress.
Sounds like a case could be made, at the very least.
The First Amendment was ratified by people that are all dead too, and there's plenty of people that disagree with it's interpretation. Should we toss that one out while we're at it?

It's exactly because of being on a "geeky" site like Slashdot. The basic principles of science teach you to question everything until it's proven.
Nothing has been proven, one way or the other. Thus, the debate goes on. As it should.
While I agree that there should be a more grand purpose to manned spaceflight, getting grade school children interested in newtonian physics through demonstrating the principles in a compelling way isn't a complete waste.
The next generation needs inspiration too.
This advanced application of alliteration is almost accepted to ask for an avalanche of aspirin.

Hey look, you now have exactly what you're looking for, and it's only been around for 3 years. http://www.inspirednetworks.ca/site/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Modifying_the_Active_Directory_Schema.pdf
If you haven't seen them positioning Mac as a content creation platform, and iOS as a content consumption platform, you're not paying attention.
The two lines compliment each other, and neither is going away any time soon.
I wish my company was "circling the drain" to the tune to $30B profit in a year. That would be a horrible downward spiral for my stock options.

Except that all the "cool" music is owned by the hide-bound misogynistic, corporatist world-view of the RIAA.
Oops.
Or they'll see that they paid for an ASCAP license, and close the file. This is the artist crying because he doesn't like the candidate, and he has a pulpit to yell from.
Because he doesn't have total legal control. He sold that to ASCAP for the checks he's been receiving since he published this work in 1982.
If he wants to sue over the use of this work, he can try to wrest control back from ASCAP. Good luck with that.
They don't check for permission first, because they already have it via their paid ASCAP license.
This guy is just crying because he doesn't like the candidate.
I'm sure that they had no problem cashing the checks from ASCAP right up until they learned that Speaker Gingrich was using it.
You don't get it both ways, champ.
And what you're missing is that it would invoke a protectionist response from China, who already doesn't play by the WTO rules anyway.
So let's not only screw people trying to buy cheap Chinese products that there are no locally manufactured alternatives to, while at the same time eliminating a growing market (read: jobs) for stuff we do make here by making it more expensive for a billion potential customers?

Or, maybe a Diffie-Hellman Exchange? I mean, that's only been around since 1976...

So, use Google for all the above-board stuff, and use other services for the nefarious or disgraceful porn searching?
Bing might gain some traffic, but not the traffic they want to thump their own chest about...

I'm pretty sure that Rand Paul is irritated by the TSA without even interacting with them. The existence of the TSA is enough to irritate him. And me.
