Getting raped in prison was kinda dirty, but I don't see it as being hypocritical given the tremendous service (protection, etc) which I was given for free.
If you really want 'no script', turn it off in Firefox. But I'm not willing to 'let it slide' because of how I've been helped in the past. Hopefully someone will rise up and write a "NoScript2" which does the same thing minus the kick in the teeth.
I never said that employers don't care about internships. Internally, internships didn't do much to point me to the direction of what I wanted to know (other than stay the hell out of the Auto industry, and this is when things were 'good').
My biological clock isn't ticking. Say you graduate with a BS at 23. Go back for your MS at 26. What better way to spend 26-28 than picking up 18 to 22 year olds while working on a masters:).
Get real work experience first, then get your masters. Not intern/co-op stuff, but some real world work experience.
I'm have a BSME, concentration in controls. If I went to masters program straight out of by BS, I wouldn't have known what I didn't know nor what I wanted to learn.
I've worked for 2.5 years so far at a company and love all the work that I do. But there's definitely a 'glass ceiling' of knowledge that I want to get past. I'm looking at going back in 2010 for my masters.
At the same time, 95% of the people I work with are perfectly content with their position and the work they do. You maybe too. Get out in the real world, see what you know and what you don't and then make the decision after a year or two in the real world. After 2 years you may come to the conclusion that 2 years in the work force taught you everything you wanted to know about CO and you'll have saved yourself 2 years of your life.
It's also getting very popular on torrent sites with old games... and I love it. I can download a whole list of old games I grew up with, all packaged up in a.app. Double click and 'it just works'.
Right now I'm playing Carmageddon and Command and Conquer for old time sakes.
Selling my engineering books is my biggest regret. I swore up and down I'd never need Thermodynamics. I'm a controls engineer...
Low and behold I'm controlling a thermodynamic system.
Wiki and other such sites are wonderful, but they're not presented in the medium that I learned them in with the coefficients and with the equations as I learned them.
Engineers, hold on to your text books. I know that $20 for beer looks good now but you'll want that book later much more than you want the beer now.
Woa there Misinformation. You seem to have your facts a bit twisted around. First off, I own a TDI and I'm a fairly active member on TDIClub.com, second I work for a company that makes diesel engines.
1) Yes, Gen 1 Biodiesel does gel at a lower temperature, but there are additives that people use to make it good down to -40. 2) It doesn't clog injectors nor do you have to startup and shutdown on D2. You're thinking of Waste Vegetable Oil (WVO). Biodiesel is 100% not even the same chemical composition as WVO. People turn WVO into Biodiesel by reacting it with acids, but WVO is not Biodiesel and vice versa. This is the #1 thing the media gets wrong.
Some people swear by WVO, IMHO it destroys injectors, injection pumps and is just a whole mess to deal with. It's best suited to <80s IDI engines.
Biodiesel is one of the best things you can run through your engine IF IT IS SPECIFIED TO TAKE IT. (Newer 2009 engines with DPFs are not). It has a higher lubricity, burns cleaner, cleans the system as it goes. It's like the odd marriage of colon blow and Metamucil at the same time.
3) Biodiesel does not love dirt. D2 loves dirt. The reason you have to change your filter at least once or twice after making the switch is Biodiesel is such a good solvent that it'll actually clean out your tank. Meaning if you ran on D2 for 200k miles and switch to B100. You have 200k worth of crap in your tank that the D2 left there. The Biodiesel will break it up and suck it through the system. Some people swear by using Biodiesel for cleaning car parts.
4) Finally, you don't HAVE to use corn or soybeans to make BioDiesel. Gen2 biodiesel is more or less a synthetic diesel. Using Gas to Liquid you can take *any* hydrocarbon gas and turn it into diesel. Not just that, you can control the process to more or less make it absolutely perfect (cetane levels, hydrocarbon length, etc). Instead of using natural gas or gassified coal (like the Germans did in WWII), you can use heated human waste, heated trash, if you can convert it to a gas hydrocarbon, you can turn it into Gen2 BioDiesel. (Once we get some Nukes on line and have some energy to do this, this is in my opinion the future since you honestly can't beat the power density of D2).
There's already a company which will sell you SynDiesel. Back when D2 was creeping way up in cost it was almost getting cost effective.
"Liquid helium, however, is much trickier -- and more dangerous -- to work with than liquid nitrogen and other more conventional coolants used by home overclockers, including water or air, said Davis."
So you're free to use your N2 to blow up 2L bottles, shatter racquetballs and such.
I've seen enough episodes of Law and Order to know that they probably did. It's why you don't lay down your left bower first round.
HAD they pulled it out earlier and still lost, they might not have any recourse for a retrial. They held onto it just in case they lost, then they could go "Oh, look at this conflict of interest."
The piece of knowledge wouldn't have been of use to the prosecution. "Oh the judge was biased towards us and we still lost, we want a retrial".
I love running barefoot. If you keep an eye on where you're going, you won't step on anything you shouldn't. And once you get calluses built up you can take a bit more than 'normal'.
The longest I've ever run (10 miles, 8 miles, 7 miles) were all bare foot. If you stay on the balls of your feet and don't heel strike it feels like you're gliding. Funny that this is just now being researched heavily. I did my own anecdotal research and it made sense 4 years ago.
Probably the same as a 'no burn' policy put in place in most forests a century ago. Eventually the dry stuff builds up to the point where when it does catch fire, you're fucked.
Imagine a hurricane formed with the energy from 5-10 damped out storms.

http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=not-just-a-pump Visionaries were seduced by the simplicity of the natural organâ(TM)s designâ"which really is just a four-chambered pumpâ"and somewhat naive about its dynamic complexity. Says Alfred Bove, vice president of the American College of Cardiology: "The God-given heart is a dynamically balanced, finely tuned organ, with the capacity to generate force, raise and lower pulse. Itâ(TM)s not possible to get that in an artificial heart."
http://www.accessexcellence.org/WN/NM/ozpage1.php One of the big challenges we are going to have with these axial flow pumps is trying to figure out what happens to the human body when you loose the heartbeat.... The study of the heart has focused on this internal cadence or metronome.
transfer or attempt to transfer a human embryo into a non-human womb...
I was replying to the person that I hit 'Reply' to. If you look at the legislation, it states 'non-human womb'. That probably includes artificial ones.
What makes you think there's something special about a chemical process that we'll never be able to replicate it?
HFCS. Chemically it should be the same, but there have been more than a few links with obesity. It's just a corn sweetener right? I mean how hard could getting around sugar tariffs be?
Law of Unintended Consequences, we've all evolved to be in a womb. There's a whole list of things that go on during pregnancy that I don't think we're even close to completely understanding.
Babies pickup up the basic phonemes of the mothers language in the womb. Babies respond to their mother's voice after birth because they've been 'hearing' it for the last 9 months.
Babies constantly hear the mother's heart beat. It's why you can calm a baby by placing it close to your chest, it hears the heart beat again.
Babies' immune system get bootstrapped with antibodies from the mother's body.
The mother's body (kidney, hearts, lungs, livers) act as the baby's for the first 9 months. We haven't perfected artificial copies of those yet, so what is the artificial womb supposed to do? We're already seeing problems where a constant flow motor in place of a heart causes problems in the rest of the body that had grown accustom to a (1/60) Hz throbbing.
Artificial / Cow milk is no substitute for breast milk during young development. The fatty chains and stuff can't be replicated by any formula, what makes them think that the fluids the mother and baby exchange?
The human body is an infinitely complex system of feedback loops and control systems. I can't ever see us getting this right artificially. If the baby is low on X, the mothers body will give it more X.
How many versions of this will we go through of very very messed up babies/people before we get it right?
You don't "own" anything anymore. Don't you get it? You 'rented' a lawn mower from Home Depot. As long as you don't run through the store naked they allow you to keep renting it. Even if the rental fee is just a 1 time up front fee, you're still just renting.
Not to mention the amount of damning evidence against the kid. They have DHCP leases of when the mass email went out to the school.
Roommate problems. One roommate sends out a mass-email to campus saying other roommate is 'gay' and coming out. It all sounds like a sophomoric prank using computers instead of posters, fliers, etc.
It also alleges that back when the roommates were 'friends' hacker dude put a second account on roommates computer while fixing it.
Half paranoia on some accounts, but for the most part most accusations sound plausible.

Do you still remember his name?
Shelter Rock Jewish Center or Serangoon Junior College or
Samuel Robert James Colbert?
I just tried unetbootin. I've been looking for a way to turn ISOs into USB sticks.
F12 on my dell. Didn't work.
Joe just gave up.
Where does Joe get his Ubuntu Live CD?
Windows can't burn ISOs out of the box (or XP can't) and he likely doesn't know what a "ISO" is anyway.

And Define "fine". Breast feeding has been linked to IQ in numerous studies. Some studies show an increase in intelligence for each additional month the child was breastfed. (With additional sources linked). There are plenty of people who lead perfectly 'fine' lives with an IQ of 90. But if it came to a point where everyone had an IQ of today's 90. Well go watch Idiocracy.
