Korean bioethicists, human rights activists and the leading journal Nature have all suggested that the donors included junior members of a research team headed by Woo Suk Hwang. Nature was told by a PhD student on the team, Ja Min Koo, that she and another woman in the lab had donated eggs. She subsequently changed her story, blaming her poor English for a misunderstanding. Hwang and the ethics committee which approved the research refused to provide further information.
There may not have been concrete proof that this had occured, but people are obviously starting to distance themselves from the research.
Oooooooooooh, thats very nice. I just installed all the packages and logged into it. After running through all the configuration, it appears to have (almost) everything I was looking for. It is customisable as I expect and runs as quickly as I like, however I cannot get the application list inside a single taskbar. Damn annoying really, I prefer the window titles to be at the very top and the app list inside the taskbar at the bottom (like XP). I have configured this part in gnome perfectly, but its not so easy in xfce. Putting the applist at the bottom means its covered by the taskbar.
I think I'll stick with gnome for now until I find a better solution:)
Hell, I might start hacking at the gnome source and see if I can fix the original niggle myself!
This may not be the correct place to ask this, but what the hey...
I am playing with Ubuntu at the moment, and have found it to be wonderful. I have managed to get basically everything the way I want it, except for configuring gnome properly. In Windows I can disable all the flashy eye candy and zooming windows etc ("Animate windows when minimizing and maximizing" tick in visual effects) I cannot for the life of me find out how to do something similar in Gnome. I have looked around and tried to read through the gnome site, but there doesn't seem to be a GUI effects panel or settings list anywhere. Would anyone know if the effect settings are built into the theme, or if they are just locked on and a code change would be needed to change it? I remember with other Linux distro's I have tried the settings have all been there (but that was most likely KDE which was overkill for my wants)
Sorry that its posted here, but its the only thing bugging me about my system.
I swear I already read this, but I can't find it. They must have removed the article.
*cower*
To debunk this research, they didn't do a proper study, just sat an emittor inside a beanie and tried to pick up the signal. Brain waves are at a much lower level, so the thin shiny foil will reflect them back inwards. I'm sure if they had done the same test using thicker foil it wouldve worked and blocked the signal properly. Mind you, don't listen to my advice, do your own tests to be certain.
If you use the player functionality to make a copy of the CD, doesn't the copy also contain a version of this software just with Copyremaincount=CountRemainCount-1?
Theres about the same amount of precaution as you put into your email account.
Its certainly not anything serious, but if your free with your account details then expect to get burnt.
I would like something like this, being able to run a web app from anywhere in the world and configure my video would save my missus heartache ("OMG I forgot to set the tape" is a commonly heard phrase).
MP3 singles I can deal with since they are already sold seperately anyway, but why in the hell would anyone want to buy a single page?
It would get awful messy even if you used the examples given in the article, a recipe on a specific page - it would be a bummer if it then said "gather the same utensils as for the cake on the previous recipe" or something.
this magical RFID device needs to be opened manually, looked at, checked, optically scanned and then finally used as RFID to get the digital picture and print from the device?
This is going to take 3x longer and be prone to more failures surely? This is a benefit how?
Surely a 2d barcode would be better, or just use old tech mag swipe?
I'm sure a very small foot note about the readability of the page is infinately better than a big message at the header of every page. At least with screen readers you can go through the entire page before coming across the usability message, and may even have selected the option before coming to the "click here" message. The current method would force the user (who may be using a standards compliant browser) through a rant for every page.
I like your thinking about your site, but for people who are using a standards compliant browser but who CHOOSE to use their own stylesheet (for accessibility reasons etc) they will get this big dopey message.
I wonder how it would work for blind access? Will the screenreader need to go through this block everytime unless specified?
I personally think a small footnote indicating "Built to standards, click here for more info" would be more professional (after all, you made space for the firefox and validator icons)
One other small note, you may actually be putting people off looking at your site by displaying such a big notice - I am lucky, I get to choose my own work browser, many others in a work environment are locked to the company default.
This stops dead any script which attempts to access the window status bar. If you read the discussion in the bug report I posted earlier, they talk about this as a workaround, but avoid it for a total fix because the proper action should be to simply skip over the line with the status bar change and continue with the rest of the script.
It worked wonders for me and finally made me relax and be able to see the URLs wherever I went.
I know it will come back and bite me in the ass at some point though, because there is no UI to modify this from within the program.
I use a combinition of this and a modified greasemonkey NoMiddleMan script (it just removes the onmouse events from the links themselves as part of the link cleanup loop - better to have one loop doing multiple actions than multiple seperate loops)
I can now go where I want and never have to worry about a blind link.

Shouldn't the first sign "something" is up be an increase in bandwidth?
Once you know its happening, you know you have to identify the problem.
Unless somebody can root all the routers and IDS systems for every OS along the way, these darknets will always be detectable.
Nothing for you to see here. Please move along.
I didn't see anything in the linked article, so I dug a little deeper and came across this:
Were Korean egg donors public-spirited or press-ganged?
In it, it says:
Korean bioethicists, human rights activists and the leading journal Nature have all suggested that the donors included junior members of a research team headed by Woo Suk Hwang. Nature was told by a PhD student on the team, Ja Min Koo, that she and another woman in the lab had donated eggs. She subsequently changed her story, blaming her poor English for a misunderstanding.

You should have let Schrodinger look after it for you.

I guess they would have their assets frozen as well.
Oh, you mean Dupes!

The scary part is that some percentage of people would actually put up with it and pay a subscription fee for the privilege.
Call it "stargate - in the beginning" and you would triple the players instantly.

Zombies are just one type, we need to start identifying the Vampires and ghouls.
They cause MUCH more havoc than simple zombies.
Take your 169GB zip file and divide by 212 (number of disks) and you get about 800MB per disk.
I routinely watch avi movie rips at this data size without any noticable problems...
You can complain about not having the right to complain, but you have to do it with a song and a dance.
Even as a smoker, I think they stink and taste awful.

I suppose I'm one step away from stopping.
Its just a matter of changing my attitude
Actually, in your haste to inform us you linked to the wrong article.
;)
Yours is similar to the wifi mapping, but involves mapping cellphones.
The other dupe posters may have been slower, but they were more accurate
Admit it, you just wanna grow tonnes of super-skunk don't you :P

silly silly silly.
But they can;t get the information without opening the passport and optically scanning it anyway now.
The only practical beneift with RFID is now 100% totally gone.
Its just all bullshit really.

You might just be losing business because of it.
"This is a first. No one has ever explored our moon in the 3-D interactive environment that World Wind creates,"
I think Neil Armstrong would have something to say about that.
I found the only way to stop it happening and see every URL was to insert a line into my prefs.js file.
s ", "noAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Window.statu
This stops dead any script which attempts to access the window status bar.
