  2. sweetheart deal? on Electronic Transaction Reporting Slipped Into Senate Bill · · Score: 1

    i call bullshit on the dodd scandal. i took out a $275K loan in 2003. i was offered a 4.5% rate, but bargained it down to 4.25%. so dodd's power and influence got him the same deal offered to an ordinary joe like me? move along, there's nothing to see here.

    Is it really fair to treat an entire office or dorm (or even a small country) the same as a single user who happens to have a unique IP from their ISP?

    in a word: yes.

    in several words: if the office/dorm/whatever is paying for one network attachment, the "fair" thing to do is to provide them with the same level of service provided to anyone else paying for a single hook up.

    dontcha know, this drug is also used for treating pain, inflammation, acute or chronic inflammation, arthritis, inflamed joints, bursitis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, septic arthritis, fibromyalgia, systemic lupus erythematosus, phlebitis, eczema, rash, psoriasis, acne, wounds and candidiasis.

    not to mention viral infections such as herpes outbreaks, fungal, bacterial or parasitic infections, including colitis, ulcers, hemorrhoids, corneal scarring, dental plaque and immune disorders including autoimmune disease.

    and let's not forget treating or prophylactically preventing an indication selected from the group consisting of pain, inflammation, acute or chronic inflammation, arthritis, inflamed joints, bursitis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, septic arthritis, fibromyalgia, systemic lupus erythematosus and phlebitis.

    but why stop there? it is also used for treating or prophylactically preventing dermatological conditions such as e.g. acne, rash, psoriasis or eczema, including facial seborrheic eczema or eczema of the hands, face, scalp or neck, hemorrhoids and the like.

    furthermore, treating or prophylactically preventing wound infection and debriding wounds (by applying to the wound a microbial infection-preventing effective amount of the enzyme or by enhancing the healing of wounds by administering a microbe inhibiting effective amount of the enzyme), when treated the wound can be substantially free of necrotic tissue; removing dead or peeling skin from otherwise healthy skin to improve the skin's appearance, where preferably the amount of the enzyme administered is a dead skin removing effective amount.

    hold on to your hat, they are treating or prophylactically preventing cystic fibrosis, cancer, e.g. by administering a tumor treating effective amount or a tumor metastasis preventing or inhibiting amount of enzyme, atherosclerosis, asthma, septic shock, toxic shock syndrome, tissue adhesions such as tendon-sheath, abdominal post-surgical or joint adhesions, reperfusion injury, malaria, immune disorder such as an autoimmune disease, apoptosis, colitis and enteritis, such as Crohn's disease.

    can't stop now, they're treating or prophylactically preventing a microbial infection, e.g. a viral infection such as a herpes virus infection (e.g. HSV-1, HSV-2, herpes zoster or genital herpes infection), HIV, hepatitis, influenza, coronavirus, cytomegalovirus, rhinovirus or papilloma virus infection; an infection causing a gastrointestinal disease such as ulcer or diarrhoea; a fungal infection such as systemic, skin, oral, vaginal or esophageal fungal infection, including e.g. yeast infection, including a fungal nail infection and candida infections; microbial infections of the eye, preferably treated with ocular administrations; bacterial infections including infection by Staphylococcus spp., Streptococcus spp., Klebsiella spp., Pseudomonas spp., Neisseria gonorrheae, Haemophilus spp., Chlamydia spp., syphilis and E. coli infections and bacterial infections causing chancroid; opportunistic microbial infections in immunocompromised patients.

    and, holy mother god, removing dental plaque, where preferably the amount of the enzyme administered is a dental plaque removing effective amount; and lysing blood clots, where preferably the amount of the enzyme is a clot lysing effective amount.

    i'm talking a miracle drug here: the technology also provides (a) methods for treating or prophylactically preventing a cell-cell or cell-virus adhesion related syndrome, comprising administering an anti-adhesion effective amount of the cod trypsins or chymotrypsins or related peptidases effective to remove or inactivate a cellular or viral acceptor or receptor adhesion component that is involved in the cell-cell or cell-virus adhesion, (b) compositions or substances for use in such methods, (c) pharmaceutical compositions containing effective amounts of enzyme for use in such methods, and (d) uses of the en

  9. Re:Not sure till I try it. on Previewing the Next Solaris OS · · Score: 1

    IMHO AFS replication doesn't work at all! It is read-only. Having to release an entire volume just to update a single byte in a single file is ugly -- coyote ugly!

    Regarding global name space, an NFSv4 server exports "/" not individual mount points. This will make a global name space the rule. Remember, AFS has a global name space only because administrators mount root.afs on /afs. It is a convention, not a standard.

  16. Re:License to print money on The Last Comdex? · · Score: 1

    comdex' profit is the difference between two big numbers. when one of those numbers drops but the other one doesn't, a happy equilibrium is upset.

    bad times means revenues are way down. but costs are unchanged because a show that big is planned, committed, and even partially executed years in advance. wishful thinking on the part of the organizers is no doubt also a factor.

    it's easy to lose millions this way. do that two or three times in a row, glub glub glub you're fish food.

    looks like usenix will survive -- two bad years cost them half their reserve, but they project a balanced budget next year. i wonder how acm and ieee are doing. i hear rumors ... and i start them too, so pass it on.

    Edward Felten, a Princeton University professor, set off another legal spark when he publicized a research paper that he claimed was the recipe for breaking the digital watermark technology Secure Digital Music Initiative (SDMI). Felten had planned to present the paper at a conference, but never did, after coming under legal pressure from the entertainment industry, which threatened to sue him and the show organizers.

    felten et al. later published their paper in the usenix security conference, but only after usenix put its money and its reputation on the table by indemnifying the authors and (along with eff) countersuing the riaa and the department of justice.
