Given the huge backlash in that country. Perhaps they would say "misled".
But really the point is that the US is paying the vast majority of the cost and has the vast majority of troops on the ground. So any attempt to call this a broad coalition is disingenuous.
Chechnya? Okay, I haven't paid much attention to that situation, and Putin may blame it on "terrorism", but I seriously doubt that situation has anything to do with the middle-east. I'm nitpicking your post, but I think Bush and others tend to assume all terrorists are the same. And that is part of the problem.
Ever notice how often American politicians get confused between Sadam and Osama? It's funny. But also scary.
In case you missed the debate. I'm not specifically picking on Poland. I'm picking on Bush for repeatedly using Poland as an example of how broad his coalition was.
If you care so much about global opinion why are you trashing this fine international coalition that our heroic president has formed. What do you say to Tony Blair? What do you say to Poland? Poland! Why does everybody forget that we were supported by Poland!
Whatever. So you have to do some research to make sure the software you use supports hardware you are buying. How is that any different than what linux users already have to do?
Slight correction. The maine-style actually uses congressional district, not overall percentage, to divy up the rest of the votes. But I don't have poll numbers per district.
First of all, to win you must have 270 votes or more. Less than that and the CONGRESS will get to decide who wins. That is obviously not desirable.
Anyway, I've been taking the poll numbers from www.electoral-vote.com to do similar analysis. I'm looking at three possible systems. Winner-take-all (the current system), all electoral votes go to the winner in the state. Proportional, the state's votes are divided based on the percentage of actual votes (as the article did). And Maine-style, two votes given to the winner, the rest are divided by percentage.
From sep19 till today, the results for each system are as follows:
Winner-take-all: Bush wins 12 days, kerry wins 2 days.
Maine-style: Bush wins 7 days, the rest are tied.
Proportional: Every day is a tie.
So, unless we scrap the entire electoral college. Winner-take-all is the only way to actually have a winner and not let the congress break the tie.
I agree that it unlikely that Han's reflexes are that fast. But in this cut they actually move Han's head, dodging the blast! Laughable as it is, the intent of whoever digitally edited that scene is clear.
Still this whole discussion is about 5 frames of video. Those frames don't make any sense. But everything else is still there: Han secretly pulling out the blaster. Han having no visible reaction other than to calmly apologize for the mess. Han is still the man.
The strange thing is that the latest gdiplus redistributable is version "5.1.3102.1360 (xpsp2.040109-1800)". But the final release of SP2 contains a NEWER version: "5.1.3102.2180 (xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158)".
Google news listed over 1000 stories in papers around the world
But, to be fair, did you check if those stories were word-for-word the same? Did you check for an AP by-line? It is not exactly fair to claim that 1000 news outlets didn't do any fact checking if they were actually just printing an AP story.
Yup, I upgraded from 0.9 to 1.0PR today. The USA Today photo gallery was indeed broken on 0.9, but works with 1.0. So that's one less excuse for using IE.
The FAQ on the site mentions that they use "either the AES-based, SVP Native Scrambling Algorithm (NSA), or the original broadcast scrambling. In some cases, both algorithms can be in use at the same time."
They also mention that they specifically designed SVP such that any existing video decoder hardware can be modified to support the decryption with minimal changes ("a small number of gates"). If the decryption logic is made too complicated, it probably would increase the cost of the device too much to be acceptable.

It just depends on what the meaning of 'is' is.

One big difference is that update.mozilla.org uses SSL, but www.mozila.org does not. I would prefer not to trust a vanilla http site.
Surely you are not suggesting that an OSS project would use the same marketing bullshit that big companies use? I'm shocked!!
Very funny. But if that comment is indicative of the quality of spin from the "War Room", Kerry has nothing to worry about.
Anybody know which server software they are talking about?
Maybe he meant VA Linux?

What vulnerability are you talking about? Last one I remember was the shell:// thing, but that was a long time ago.
I did that when I first got a private office. But negative responses from coworkers eventually pressured me into keeping all the lights on.

libpr0n? serious? bwahahaha, open source is great!

And jar-jar's voice makes the cut also. Naboo is shown during the celebration and you hear "we-sa free!!"
