That's because they didn't attach their MSWord "styles" to the document and it imported whatever styles were set up on the local receiving computer. The whole system of styles being defined locally is a source of a lot of misformatting problems with Word on multiple computers since most users aren't even aware of the existence of paragraph styles anyway.
The James Bond movie simply copied the same set-up from an earlier episode of the TV show The Avengers called "Dead Man's Treasure" where Emma Peel drove a race car simulator hooked up to deliver an electric shock to the driver when a mistake was made. Similarly shocking was another episode called "The Danger Makers" from the previous year where she had to walk along a see-saw holding looped wands around electrified tracks like you sometimes see on a smaller scale at carnival games.
At least Piller understood what Roddenberry was trying to do!
Roddenberry pitched the Original Series as "Wagon Train to the Stars" which is why it had forst and foremost lots of action punctuated by an occasional fistfight or shootout. If someone would return to that formula instead of the "telenovela" style soap opera format of recent series then it would reurn to high ratings.
Both Roddenberry and George Lucas understood this. Roddenberry based Star Trek on old Westerns, while Lucas based Star Wars on old WWII movies. For an interesting exercise think about how you would rewrite "High Noon" as a Star Trek episode.
I always believed that an X was a valid signature.
And I always thought "X" was a valid signature for people who are illiterate and therefore can't sign their name, but that it had to be countersigned by a literate witness who could verify it. Anyone know the legalities of it?
...I would not want to do this.... Why? Because that would involve an immediate transition from student to wage slave. And I don't wish to go through that transition too early.
But this program is not for "wage slaves," it's for those people who will go on to hire wage slaves to do their work for them while they are out relaxing by the pool.
And in 2010, Lucas will announce another edition wherein at appropriate times your theater seat will squirt water on you, the seat will vibrate and shake, and puffs of air will tickle your legs.
That's because freedom of press is supposed to protect against government abuses. Without a free press, it is difficult to keep the government accountable to the people.
So we have nothing to protect us against corporate abuses? We aren't allowed to keep corporations accountable via v free and open press? It's funny but I don't recall seeing any qualification on the first amendment stating its intent in my copy of the Constitution.
I'm often surprised to find that some of the most popular video shorts distributed are commercials. Some websites have commercials making up 50% of their content (it seems like boobies and skateboard accidents are the other 50%). There's a huge lesson here for content providers and distributors. People will willingly watch and trade commercials (commercials!) for products if they are simply well made and novel.
The New York Times would never had published the leak. An editor would have asked the reporter who their source was, and if it was an Apple insider, would have asked if the insider was covered by an NDA.
But it was The New York Times the most famously published the Pentagon Papers leaked to them by Daniel Ellsberg. Daniel Ellsberg had signed an NDA with The Rand Corporation (his employer at the time) concerning the non-disclosure of classified government information that he came into contact with. History contradicts you.
And if it's old family 8mm movies, have the old folks, Aunts and Uncles, Grandma and Grandpa, sit around and watch it as you show it and record it. Their audio commentary on the new sound track (which with most 8mm would otherwise be silent) is invaluable in sorting out who was who, what was what, and where they were doing something. It's a win-win. They get to see old footage they probably haven't seen in a while and you get a great commentary to go along with your new video version.
And as for farmers covering up, most males used to work the field with bare torsos to ease the effect of the heat.
That's just not supported by the evidence. In every photo I've ever seen of famers in the field prior to WWII, they are allwearinglongsleeves and a hat.
Sometimes there's only one thing left to do, and that's take out the trash. I don't have a big enough heart to be 'inclusive' of people who haven't bothered to read a book since they flunked out of high-school, have never travelled outside of their county(yes, county not country) except to go shoot people, and have nothing but contempt for qualities like patience, tolerance, and peace.
You just described a large component of your inner-city Democrat core vote. The inner-city corner crack dealer, the prostitute, and the gang-banger all consistently vote Democrat and are not know for their high education levels, are not known to have passports stamped with multiple foreigh entry/exit visas, have the highest levels of neighborhood gun violence, and judging from some open-air hip-hop concerts do not exhibit much patience, tolerance, and peace. You should look into the mirror before disparaging Republicans with such a broad brush.
Yeah, those Aztecs cutting the living hearts out of thousands humans each day to appease the gods so that the sun would rise the next day. That's true communism for you all right.
Personally, I'm glad the Spaniards decided to "muck up" what the natives were doing. Human sacrifice, cannibalism, hunting large land mammals to extinction, and slash and burn agriculture is not the legacy I would wish on the Americas.
For instance, it was just outed a few weeks ago that the White House was employing a 'reporter' that wasn't reporting for a legitimate newspaper, had been using a false name that was ok'd by the secret service and had questions vetted personally by their press secretary to softball back to him during the press conferences -- sometimes getting secret information that normally took a 3 month background check by standard White House employees, but they skipped most of it to ensure that he could ask the right questions.
Wow! Can you spot the nine falsehoods or misleading statements in that one sentence?
White House correspondents are not "employed" by the White House -- they work for the news outlets.
CNN reporters don't work for legitimate newspapers either, so does that make them suspect? Just because a news organization uses electronic means to distribute its news does not make it illegitimate.
Pen names are not false names. Should we refer to Kwesi Mfume as Frizzel Lewis? He's not using his real name either.
The Secret Service doesn't "OK" reporters pen names. Why would they care?
The White House Press Secretary does not know the questions in advance.
He received no secret information. The Plame memo often cited was published in the Wall Street journal 10 days before he mentioned it.
Reporters are not subject to the same White House background check as are White House employees.
The background check for a day pass is a simple check of criminal records. It's not a three-month process.
He never applied for a "hard pass" that would have initiated the lengthy background check, so there was nothing for "them" to skip.
And you pick one example. How about CNN's leading the charge for the invasion of Somalia? That wouldn't have happened without CNN fanning the flames. What about the carpet bombing of Belgrade (bombing bridges and power stations)? CNN was at the front of that one as well. Lots of pandering there. But it was pandering to the liberal masses.

But the most popular movie was "Wrath of Khan" which did follow the action/adventure style.
I wonder what "Cool 'Disco' Dan" thinks about this? Is this a new frontier for him?

For a great example see any of the Busby Berkeley extravaganzas such as "Golddiggers of 1933." If he could have done that in color he would have.
Like those here on Slashdot who published copies of DeCSS in violation of the DMCA?

No "whistleblower" exemption existed in law in 1971 when the papers were published. That came a decade later.

None of those laws existed in 1971 when the NYT published those papers. Your ignorance is compounded by your arrogance.

They could go the way of the Russian movie sharing sites Kinokabra and Kinoshara and limit downloads to Russian-only IP addresses.
Then Intel should jump the gun and quickly get out some plans for a Intel 128 bit chip design so they can cybersquat the "I*128" folder.

I won't dispute that. He was there, I wasn't. Perhaps they covered up because they knew the camera was there.
That's just not supported by the evidence. In every photo I've ever seen of famers in the field prior to WWII, they are all wearing long sleeves and a hat.

I disagree. Watch this.
