Just about 2 days ago, I took 3grams of my Silver eagle (2005 Bullion) and 15grams of my 1trz gold bar along with 2grams of copper and alloyed it into 18Kt. Gold. Making a pendent for my wife. Guess I'll have to chop the rest of my eagle up really good so that they won't be able to tell what it is/was that I used for fine silver.;)
Don't forget the embedded RFID Tags, so that when you walk past a (soda)POP machine it will know if you can afford to purchase or not... If so it will start singing and dancing. Or the same for billboard advertisements and posters, etc...
Airport.. Xray and match RFID's on coins to PHOTO ID at check in... If PHOTO ID Changes and coin doesn't register that it was used as a purchase or change then the person is useing a two ID system to get free upgrades, bypass security, etc...
RFID Money with a history... Who used it last, what they bought, how much and was it legal.
Hmm... Actually, I guess I should got Patent this instead of blabbing on slashdot...
*(ok, Dating myself, I like the pop machine in the FIRST original robotech episode that would roll over to people when you called for it... "BUT I WANT A SODA!!!!!"...)
uhh.. When was the last time I had to boot... Hmm... My system is usually up 99% unless I leave on vacation or something. logout is about as far as I'll go.. Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot about when MICROSOFT FORCES MY MACHINE TO REBOOT EVEN THOUGH I TELL THE #$%!@#$@#$% UPDATE PROMPT NOT TO REBOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry, Forgive me... Thats just one of my Pet Peeves with my XP Box.. My linux mythtv box on the other hand never reboots.
Win2k SP4 runs solid... But for Multimedia crap, folks are starting to complain.. they want XP... We started new images of XP this past summer and are SLOWLY rolling it out because it means new Group Policies, New Software Distribution packages for APP + XP, New Drivers for some hardware that may be legacy... License and software reinstalls on XP systems, etc.. etc.. out of about 4k computers, only about 150 - 300 are XP at this point.. Rest are 2kSP4 and will remain as long as possible. AND I think we are doing well. I have a brother-in-law that works in Public K-12 EDU Sector in MAIN (the State for those out of the US Border) and he still runs Win98 on A LOT(!) of his machines. I don't know his counts, but I know that he's using Linux on as many server as possible and Open Office on desktops because of funding issues. Lets see Microsoft Push vista, just as lickly as Congress Pushing HD. RIGHTTTTTTT....
Ha... Actually, around here (Midwest Burbs, nowheresville...) when the power went out a few months ago from storms, I was surprised the number of cars that were just PARKED outside of the houses overnight in the neighborhood because the Automatic doors weren't working... I had to show the neighbor lady how to unlatch it from the chain ("yep, that red pull hickymabob thingydoodle...") and raised it by hand for her. She had never had to do that and didn't know how and her car was "STUCK" inside. Of course my other neighbor has a generator, so he's usually pretty good. Nice to have a TV arouind for severe storms warnings, etc... I think I'm the only one of the 3 that has GAS Stove, so I can still cook, just have to light things manually. Lots of fun. Make you realize how much you depend on those pesky electrons when the hum of the always-on computer disapears. (and you habitually turn lights on/off as you enter rooms with your flashlight even though it does absolutely no good... Always thought that was funny too... )
" In such a scenario, what incentive does the research institute have to develop the drugs and medical devices other than government grants? "
Pretty much summs it up... How many Drugs are produced by communist countries where research is dependent on goverment rubles?
Moving on, next topic...
I don't get it... When I cast my electronic vote, it printed it onto PAPER... When I Verfied all the information was correct on that piece of PAPER that it printed then it finished the ballot. Otherwise, it would have started over... And for recounts and such, they have to go by the PRINTED PAPER RECORD. NOT the machine counts as everyone thinks...
No, Don't get me wrong... I think there are LOTS of OTHER issues with the current crop of machines, but the machines DO leave a PAPER trail. So, What was your complaint again?
Lets not make broad sweeping assumptions and stick to facts.
Make some type of thermite packing around HD... Press button if gard asks for laptop... done, no more sensative data.
Be sure to warn the guard first that your company's privacy policy covers the computer so they don't think your a TERRORIST or Kiddie PORNSTER...
Seriously, this is just FUD because of the election.. I'd like to see the NAMES of a company that can say their equipment was confiscated for no reason and they lost the only copy of something... I'll go one step further and state WHY would you keep trade secrets on a laptop! I bet LAPTOP THEFT occures more frequently then US Border Guard confiscation.
Just a tool to inject more fear of the current government into the sheep. Hopefully folks are smarter than that here... Oh, its Slashdot.. nevermind.
REMEMBER: PHYSICAL SECURITY is the FIRST line of security. A LAPTOP is not secure by any means! So DO NOT trust your most secure data to be left on it.
Here is a quiz... What is more likely:
1) So company XYZ creates new global changing product and G.I. Joe takes laptop... Next year the government is releasing new dept of defense underware that doesn't chaife.
2) So company XYZ creates new global changing product and G.I. Joe takes laptop... Because company was a front for $$$ laundring and had financial records of bank accounts of terrorists, etc..
3) So company XYZ creates new global changing product and G.I. Joe takes laptop... Because company was an independent contractor to Government funded research and employee was trying to smuggle product home for personal gain or export. (terrorists...)
4) So company XYZ creates new global changing product and competitor does distract-switch @ airport/border. company goes bankrupt because competitor went to market faster.
5) So company XYZ creates new global changing product and laptop is stolen for a quick sale for $50 & "rock" to the local head thug who then turns around and uses it for a child porn server.
If you said 4, I think you might have a clue. Look at HP... corporite espionage is alive and well.
So, Lesson is to keep ALL important data secured and encrypted on servers with Encrypted PTPT between client/server and LIMIT the access to ONLY THOSE THAT NEED, not the every saleman in the company that might cross a border.
If I recall correctly, the kids were being convinced to visit pirate sites and send it to some government sponsored group that would "Follow up" on the tips... and then your next door neighbor and his family would disapear.
I've used Eudora since PSU freshman year in 1990... We ran it on Windows 3.1 for our POP Mail... AND, I still use it today. I love it and wouldn't trade it... I've tried others, but keep coming back. there was a brief period where I'd use the Netscape email (vr. 4 or something long ago..) and ALSO Eudora...
Actually, I can still look in my email (DRIVE) folder, and I have all my emails back to 1992 when I started keeping them... CYA... Learned fast!. and I just Archive it to a DVD every-once-in-a-while so that I will never loose them.. don't know why... but I still keep EVERY email I send/recieve.. Helps at work when I get a: "I don't know what you mean, I never got that email 3 months ago... (me: Right, whats THIS!?!) Oh... That one?":)
traffic light remotes (the new ones that only emergency vehicles are supposed to have)
Haha... This reminds me of a clueless friend of mine... She actually believed that traffic lights were set to change when an emergancy vehicle approached because of the flashing lights. (light patterns was her logic...) So when we'd go out and she'd drive, at EVERY red light she would flash her high-beams on/off/on/off/on/off, etc... until it changed and then proudly say: "SEE! I told you!" when I would chide her about it... Funny now that I look back on it from this perspective.
Just like the last story, cue the anarcho-capitalists who will ask "Would you rather have it any other way?"
Yeah, they probably will. But would you rather have it any other way?
I enjoy consuming energy and creating wealth for myself and my family... I say EVERYONE should activily persue it. (Legal or not?) But Not everyone has the same freedoms to do so. I think that those that don't like the US consuming so much, etc.. are either jealous OR have some type of guilty concious about their own situation.
So there have two options...
1) If you are jealous, then try harder. 2) If you are guilty for being prosperous, then leave. (or commit suicide.)
I do NOT personally attack any 3rd world country... I do NOT personally create too much trash... I do NOT personally waste gas/energy... BUT, as a prosperous citizen, I DO try hard to secure a job that can generate an income that I can live well on for myself and my family. THAT is not a crime. As for the GEOPolitical side of things, that will happen no matter WHO is in power, or where...
I'm tired of these folks spouting numbers to try and make me feel guilty for being born here in the US. Get over it... Try harder.
I know there's a relationship between bird migration and magnetic fields, too, as a lot of them blindly smack into the brick walls at a local MRI center.
Am I going to be the only one to cry "fowl" on this lie?
I've seen pictures, these are some great high quality images with 3D detail that are great screensaver material.
Actually, I think it would make some great MAPS for FPS's.. Think about SOFII on the FACE... Drop the G's really low so you can float/jump, etc. Maybe Capture the Flag. I'd love to snipe someone from the top as they make their way up.
Hmmm...
I don't have to support either.. As any theory, you need a little faith to belive in it. I picked my side, it sounds like you picked yours... No argument necessary in my book. When I die, I'll find out who was right.:)
I honestly don't understand what the arguments are about, if I want my kids to learn "intelligent design" then I'd teach it to them.. It doesn't have to be in a state OR church mandated book to be taught.
PS.. I also have a theory about the seasons and how everyone that starts to put on coats because of a little chilly weather, blocks the removal of body heat by the sun. thereby giving the sun less energy to shine back onto the earth and thus it gets colder... After a while we start to take the jackets and coats off to be brave and look forward to spring and that allows the sun to warm the earth back up... it seems to be a strange perpetual ritual with our species in general... But they won't teach it in my school system.:( It's almost as crazy as the theory I heard once about apes and man being related.
As a statistician, isn't variations what you study by the very nature of statistics? The fact that it has remained constant for so long before the sudden deviation may indicate
1) the data is flawed/skewed (ie, liers)
or
2) a change in the model (can you tell me you asked EXACTLY the same people in EXACTLY the same places? North vs South, East vs. West, etc...)
or
3) Wrong Sample size (Has the # of people questioned grown with population)
or
4) Swayed change in motivation/thinking of polled group by current events (9/11, Anthrax still unsolved, Spain gives in to Terrorist, Extremist Terrorist bomb and kill innocents, Dems still don't have, or haven't revealed, a plan or clue, the alternatives in 2000 and 2004 were worst than Bush, etc...)
or
5) agenda of statistician developing polls. (crafting questions to give "hot" responses that are inaccurate)
or
6) Ethically challenged company or person that developed poll just to get $$$ from one side, gave them the results they wanted to have and then said "awh... it doesn't look right, so it must be a rigged election. Pay me more to look into it..." (ie, Follow the $$$ of "WHO" said the exit polls are inacurate)
or
7) Numbers can be made to lie about anything. (Those evil bastard numbers are out to bring our society down!... Damn the Numbers!... No, I say damn the entity that FORCED the numbers to lie to the innocent exit poll workers! It must be the asterisk of evil!)
Fell a tree? How many trees do you think will remain, not put to use for heating homes?
Then my next plan is to implement mining of old landfills for paper pulp materials to compress (with wind driven compressors) the pulpy trash into bio logs to be used for heating homes thus freeing up the needed tree resources to build sail boats that are better than solar!
Ahh-ha! Again Wind Will Win!;)
*(And thank goodness, because the stench will make you want to sail far away!)*
----->-----
Ok.. Ok... The only way to really win is to point out that trees need sun, thus they are the ultimate efficient solar collectors and then I'd have to give up... But until then...
Good ol' `wind'. Nothin' beats that..
Oh yes, I also used the subject to throw in a simpson twisted quote, but no one caught that either...
I hate having to explain the jokes people... It makes my job here harder... Wake up...:)
and everyone that bitches about exit polls being lopsided, get a CLUE! I LIE everytime a pollster asks me about who I'm gonna vote for! because it is none of their F'n business! I've a number of friends that also did that.. Trust me, I never bitched all those years my guys lost... (Not always Republican either, so don't jump to that conclusion!)
How many people thought Pero Should have Won? Was it stolen from him? no... Thats just life.
Again, Get over it... It's the Wah-Wah-Wah and inability to support a secured america that will be their downfall again unless they come up with some REAL plans instead of just "Bush did this and it suxs. Don't you hate him too?" type of mentaility that I currently see being offered by the Dems.
But, I warned you, so don't come crying again in 2008...
By the way, if you are afraid of the "Machines" being hacked, do like my plan this year... Vote Absentee... it's 100% papertrail. But you may need to register soon for Primaries... (Oct. 10 hear in Ohio I think.)
But... If Fossil fuels runout, you can't make enough energy needed to produce mass quantities of solar panels and fiber glass.. But I could still fell a tree, build a sail boat and eventually make a sail.
"The Plaintiffs claim that Microsoft harmed Class Members by illegally overcharging for its software, by denying Class Members free choice in software products..."
"Plaintiffs are asking for money from Microsoft. Microsoft denies the claims and says...."
Let me predict the outcome of this class action lawsuit in Iowa...
1) The "CORE" group that started the lawsuit will get about $4000 each (Usually 2 or 3 persons that first filed the complaint)
2) all the "Class members" who join later, will get a gift card or Gift certificate for $25 off their NEXT Microsoft Purchase.
3) The Lawyers will get Millions in fees... (I'd guess around $10 Mill to split)
4) Microsoft increases the cost of future products by $15 to cover this annoyance.
5) Large computer companies will be forced to re-sign contracts that state they will not offer any other software except Microsoft software that is "compatible" with VISTA
Oh, and as for Bill Gates testifying... Right.... Don't think so. He'll have lawyers petition to have a private deposition and taped, and then only the answerers they want edited out and shipped to the court to watch in Iowa. (He's soo busy, don't cha know.)

Let me predict the outcome of this class action lawsuit in Iowa...
1) The "CORE" group that started the lawsuit will get about $4000 each
(Usually 2 or 3 persons that first filed the complaint)
2) all the "Class members" who join later, will get a gift card or Gift certificate
for $25 off their NEXT Microsoft Purchase.
3) The Lawyers will get Millions in fees... (I'd guess around $10 Mill to split)
4) Microsoft increases the cost of future products by $15 to cover this annoyance.
5) Large computer companies will be forced to re-sign contracts that state they will
not offer any other software except Microsoft software that is "compatible" with VISTA
Oh, and as for Bill Gates testifying... Right.... Don't think so. He'll have lawyers
petition to have a private deposition and taped, and then only the answerers they want
edited out and shipped to the court to watch in Iowa. (He's soo busy, don't cha know.)

I thought they wanted to break into the movie biz... Where's the "on golden blond' and other such classics. Guess I'll have to slide back into the slimy side of the internet. (No, "Gay and Lesbian" catagory is not Adult Content )
