"Yet, producing ethanol from corn is highly inefficient and consumes 1 unit of energy for each 1.3 units of energy that burning ethanol provides."
That calculation has not much value. The only what counts is the price tag the energy has when ist at the consumer. The point is that the produces may get ist own energy VERY cheap, so cheap that wasteing it does not matter.

1. Some government authority keeps a list of all citizens. In manny countries they do already. 2. The list also holds information on whether the individual has been issued a driving licence or a passport or any ther reliable id-card. 3. The list should have a copy of data suitable identification saved on the time of licence/passport issue, picture, finger prints etc. 4. Whenever someone is aplying for a licence/passport or other identification card, the list is checked.
FEA : Finite Element Analysis Materials internal stresses can be calculated by modelling the part as small elements, each of which have a uniform stress and a simple form.
In areas where the greatest stresses are anticipated the elements are smaller and thus "the net" is more fine-grained. The problem is that the solving time of the matrix calculations increases with the amount of elements and calculation times can be hours or longer. It takes a pro to say where the smallest elements are needed.
This of course depends on 1) how complicated the part is, 2) how accurate results are needed, 3) how fast the results are needed 4) what kind of hardware (and sw) does the calculation.
Yes of course anyone can register a.com domain, but the point is in a conflict situation. During a conflict US could easily do harm to chinese internet.
If you haven't noticed, few other countries trust US any more as a civilized and fair peacekeeper. Starting a war without international support in order to get economical benefits does that!
Notice that the article serves the purpose of advertising. PCMag ("The Independent Guide to Technology"!) is selling the same hardware they test. Would you trust the results? And the ads are even inside the story:
"The Vbox hardware is pretty darn sensitive--it can pick up weak signals and deal with multipath reflections--but the products are a little hard to track down. Luckily, we did the sleuthing, so all you have to do is go to http://shop.pcmag.com./"
And the results... They didn't close the box and test it running! What's the story worth? Collect good looking and expensive hw, put the in a box but then don't test if they work together...
I wonder why the US government doesn't ban ALL companies from dealing with China, or even inside China ? Hell, why not banning the China it self ?!
The problem is that the US Government is hardly able to prevent big companies wroking in China. There are too many ways to go around the ban. The US-located company could own a European company that owns a Russian company that works in China...

I cleaned the list removing the updates and the correct amount for Windowses is 672 (not 812) and Unixes and all the rest OS's 1034 (not 2328).
It's yet stupid and misleading to combine all Windows OS'es in one pile and the rest in the other. And even more stupid is to count pathced and unpatched vulnerabilities together! See the http://secunia.com/product/ for clearly categorized advisories.

Based on the above I come to the conclusion that Brian Krebs is either spreading FUD intentionally or plain stupidity. But what is the reason for Slashdot to do it ?

Sure I believe it!
Remember when Win95 came out and they spoke how it would put virus-scanner companies out of business. We all know the result.
There's at least one MAJOR difference Origami is running some Windows version and Nokia 770 is running (Debian based) Maemo! Open source.

Seems to me anybody can use any language they like.
If you just remember write the domain in the English alphabet and only that...
This has NOTHING to do with the censor!
You didn't know that web-sites can be connected with writing the IP-number directly without using any Name Server at all..
Backbone is a group of some kind of cables. Name server is a service that translates domain names into IP-numbers.
Why would they do that and hurt their (or their business contacts') import/export interests ?
China just wants to make sure that the internet works in China also during a possible and unwanted conflict between US and China !

Why to use word "steal" when somebody is fed up with company "A" and moves to company "S" ? He was owned by Apple was he ?
