Nothing racist about avoiding crime-plagued areas. Now, if the app was avoiding black middle-class areas, would be entirely different, but that's not what's happening here.
Something fishy when the uber-parent claims that war "seems likely," when the House will almost vote war down, and the Senate is about to experience a filibuster.
You might have noticed that the press release was dealing with predictions, not the past record. If I was a serious opponent, I could try pointing out that it states "we will continue to see temperatures like those which resulted in 2000-2009 being the warmest decade in the instrumental record dating back to 1850," but that isn't inconsistent with global warming ending in 1998. http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/media/pdf/q/0/Paper2_recent_pause_in_global_warming.PDF does argue that global warming stopped, although in 2000, not 1998.
The "recent slowdown recent slowdown in the pace of warming" is more accurately written as "the cessation of global warming since 1998." When AGW proponents make accurate but misleading claims, it's not a surprise when the rest of us look on in doubt.
It's possible Windows 3.0--which Wikipedia claims was the first pre-installed Windows--outsold Macintoshes running System 6 in 1990, but historical data is needed to validate the claim that assuming Gartner's sale estimates Apple devices would be outselling Windows devices "for the first time ever."
So we're the Saudi Arabia of natural gas and coal, and have vast amounts of oil to last for decades at minimum. Why does he want to spend our money on this?

HFT only adds costs to those that are trading at high-frequency. If one believes the benefits outweigh the costs, it's a rational course of action. Personally, I think re-evaluating a holding every 3 months makes more sense, but different people will use different strategies based on their own judgment. I'd rather avoid excessive commissions and have less complicated taxes.
People have been looking at numbers and not meaning since the beginning, e.g. "technical" analysis. I suspect the majority gamble, and I don't think that's going to ever change. Security analysis takes work, isn't glamorous and doesn't deliver a fix or high. The problem is not when people gamble, but when people gamble and think they're doing something else; however, that has nothing to do with HFT, which only presents yet another gambling avenue. It also gives opportunities to actual investors, that can buy now "undervalued" stocks that have experienced a flash-crash.
The speed of trading is irrelevant to the serious investor. Speculators will always make trades as quickly as possible to make a quick buck regardless of the fundamentals; investors will buy and hold based on the fundamentals, buying and selling after months, not fractions of a second. Prices will always revert to a more "intrinsic" value, regardless of any skewing by speculators.
I relied nearly entirely upon "Statistics for Dummies," took an exam, and got the highest possible score. Perhaps some things are better taught in a book through independent study, instead of a classroom, online or off.
Windows 7's Device Manager, there is a Policies tab, allowing you to "Enable write caching on the device" and additionally to "Turn off Windows write-cache buffer flushing on the device." The former warns "a power outage or equipment failure might result in data loss or corruption." The latter states "do no select this check box unless the device has a separate power supply that allows the device to flush its buffer in case of power failure." In Windows 7, by default, write-caching is on, and write-cache buffer flush is off. It does note that not all drives allow you to change these settings, possibly indicating that the article's author recommends any modern drive that allows one to manually choose reliability over performance. The major issue with both is that data may reside in primary memory and has not been written to the drive, there's a power failure, and your data disappears.
2) The article's point on NCQ is that many consumer drives do not implement it correctly, and disable the write cache on the disk and issue cache-flush requests to increase performance, but leading to possible file-system failures if there is a power outage.
I think this article is saying that for the enterprise, buy enterprise drives, not consumer drives. Most consumers use laptops now, so power failure doesn't fit in, and consumers prefer speed over reliability, which is why I've always been stuck using laptops lacking ECC RAM.

Pause[d] and stopped mean the same thing. You're just trolling.

So of course the Federal government needs to blow $20 million of taxpayer money, irregardless of its fiscal condition.
An investment is expected to bring a net positive return over time, not bring the expected loss closer to zero.
For you: Zero
Solution: Supply and demand

Because 2 percentage points away from a super-majority is only a "slight" preference.

There's your problem. Fix your team's mindset, not how to punish infractions that one assumes "must" happen.
