Your backup system must support the intricacies of HFS+ (the format of Mac hard disks) - otherwise you might loose important data in resource forks and extended attributes.
Rsync in all versions to Mac OS X 10.5 doesn't properly backup resource forks and extended attributes. I've heard there's changes in 10.6 but I've not investigated or tested them.
Use the application 'Superduper' to store your Mac files in a 'Sparsebundle'.
A 'Sparsebundle' is a single file that supports HFS+ and can live on other files systems (such as your uni's servers).
Futhermore, T-Mobile will unlock one phone every 90 days at no charge.
Unfortunately there are millions of people who would like their phone unlocked.
Oh - good, only 1-2 of every 100 people get cancer

You say only 1 or 2 mice out of 100 got cancer like it's a small amount.
I'm not taking those odds. There's roughly 300 million people in the US. If we gave them all implants and the same percentage of people got cancer that's 30 to 60 MILLION people!
I don't know what USA you live in but you can't just go around using the presidential seal on anything you like. The website in question had the australian government coat of arms (same deal). The reason this is off line is not because of the content but because it looks like an official government website and is using official logos.
So now you have to take steps to keep your content off Google or any number of other companies servers?
That's not right - an opt-in service makes more sense. Having an opt out service requires that the site owner keeps themselves apprised of every person who wants to copy their content without asking.
This topic has been marked as subversive, based on the IP of the person submitting this story a squad has been dispatched to pick them up from their family home.
As soon as you go inside with a GPS it is all over. Even good tree cover makes it difficult to get a reading.
A felon wearing this device could walk into a shopping centre, slap a shield of some kind on the GPS and walk out again. No one would ever know -I'm sure someone could find clothes baggy enough to conceal a shield type device for a GPS beacon.
Then when they are ready to be tracked again, just go back to the shopping centre and remove the shield.
The GPS beacon data will show them as being at the shopping centre all day... it's a great alibi for criminals with minimal technical knowledge.
This kind of thing makes the document easier for external systems to parse - a great move.
On the other hand did Microsoft just shoot themselves in the foot? the OO project can not just create a document and see what the XML looks like.
Let me ask you something, Timothy. Why do you think Apple used Win2003 at MacExpo, instead of plugging in a couple of their magical little OS/X based servers?
Obviously someone at Apple decided Win2003 was a better tool for the job.
Yes. How stupid can you get? IDC runs and promotes the expo not Apple.
Someone at IDC decided that Windows 2003 was the way to go to host their entire website, not just the MacWorld portion.
Want proof?

From the rules you referenced it says: I reject almost any MIME attachment that could be Windows malware. Even.zip files now. I politely ask them to arrange with me another way to send it.
This just doesnt work for a lot of average joe users.
Event if they are savvy enough to zip a file it is a big step to getting them to use ftp or some other method.

In short: a vector is the result of a calculation based on the number of times a term is used in a document and the terms in the other documents it is being compared with (the document set).
The angle between document (email) vectors is a representation of their likeness. For example if the angle is very small the documents have a lot in common.
This is how the mail app works. It compares known junk emails (ie the query) to the incoming document set (new emails)
There are a number of weighting schemes, for example Term Frequency Weights (TF Weights) or Term Frequency Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF Weights).
There are a few particiularly relevant laws to Information Retrieval.
Heaps Law (the larger a document gets the less new words are added to it).
http://planetmath.org/encyclopedia/HeapsLaw.html
Zipfs Law: More relevant to document weighting schemes. It states that frequently used words are less relevant. For example stop words such as "a, the, it, and, is" all carry little meaning and are used frequently.
http://planetmath.org/encyclopedia/ZipfsLaw.html
Less frequently used words in a document are better at describing its content. For example " pixel intensity mathematical concepts".

This is a good idea because you will want a small light thin machine to carry around.
Also will serve as a backup in times of need.
I find.net the fastest platform to develop for.
The documentation in Visual Studio 2003 is far better suns java docs.
VS2003 also helps the programmer along, speeding development.

I thought the terms of Mitnicks release would prevent him from participating in such an event.
"On January 21 2003, Kevin will be released from the conditions of supervised release which prohibit him from using a computer and from acting as consultant or advisor in computer-related matters. Source:
[kevinmitnick.com]
Surely participation in this event would cover him being an "advisor in computer related matters".
"So he's going to monopolize the on-system firewall and anti-virus industry next. Big deal. (The firewall should be on a separate system, anyhow...)"
What a fantastic idea, every home user must now get a second computer/router/other box to be their firewall.
Most people just plug their modem directly into their computer.

FYI, the application you're looking for was named 'Stickes' and shipped free with MacOS 7.5 in 1994. It still comes free with OS X.
Just use reverse DNS, granted not everyone would have it set up but most would.
Also some filtering program should be able to easily associate IP's with DNS names using other methods.

I just tried this out with multiple faults in the url and one at a time, eg dodgy protocol, or bad domain etc.
I didnt have to wait more than a second or two. I'm running XP SP1 and IE 6.
Now if you want to winge about the crappy networking stack in Windows that Mozilla or any other networked app has the use then go right ahead.
