Let's see what is in this fact based plea from an anonymous coward: probably produce, Some scientists say, can cause, experts fear, according to one study.
The science is strong with this REEEEEE for help...
One question, how does it stop with no fuel (aka an ability to brake?)
Also, how well does the membrane hold up to minuscule debris? Is it durable for extended voyages (outer solar system, extra solar)?
What is the maximum velocity it could reach with the available solar wind prior to it ending at the heliosheath?
If they could combine it with something to scoop up stellar gas, along with something to process the gas into energy for steering and braking, you would have something useful.
And please no Uranus comments for my subject line...
In a move to boost their search engine ratings, Google has now started a Cash Back program.
From Google HQ:
Google Cash Back is designed to help advertisers reach you with compelling offers, and to provide a new type of shopping experience that will change user behavior and attract a bunch of new users to Google. We have put in new programs for you and our advertisers designed to provide amazing shopping experiences for consumers and great opportunities for advertisers.
Our strategy for Google remains evergreen – working hard to understand the intent of your search and helping you make smarter decisions and complete important tasks.
Shopping remains one of the most important tasks people engage in while using search, and we remain committed to delivering great shopping experiences for you that help you make better shopping decisions, get great deals, and save time and money along the way. For merchants and advertisers, we have some ideas for making it easy to get a broader array of products and offers into Google, and we’ll share some details on this later this summer.
BTW, another important task is implemented our swell new feature called Google Background - we hope you like it!
By using a combination of key words (a bunch from http://www.slickdeals.net/) on bing.com (especially during the holiday season), I was able to save between 5% to 30% on a bunch of items. I knew M$ was trying to buy results and did not care - $1500 cash back in addition to more from rebates and sometimes coupons which worked with cash back is more money in my pocket....
As for the person who says it costs more to buy thru bing - I don't think so - there are some items which go on sale at specific merchants and then become awesome deals with high BCB percentages... some recent purchases:
i7 980X for $780 delivered, X58 Classified 3-way SLI for $321 (includes $30 rebate), 8% on everything purchased from ebay, LCD TVs, Canon EOS 7D combo deal, newegg deals, etc. - the program has saved me a lot of money since November of 2009. Wish I had used it when it first came out.
Check out slickdeals site and you will see the posts which people have made to help people save money on all sorts of items... Yesterday it was 30% off your purchase from endless shoes (Amazon's shoe site). There are good deals to be had if you know what other places are charging.
What a mess. If it was his supervisor cracking the jokes, the supervisor just opened up the whole sexual harassment facet of this. Mr. Negron has a case if can prove it made his work environment hostile.
Based upon the available information - sounds like they should fire the supervisor, train the employees on sexual harassment, and fire Mr. Negron for assault.
Unfortunately, we as taxpayers will ultimately pay for all of it...
With heightened visibility comes more scrutiny. Paypal and their more shady customers probably don't want anymore light shown on their activities. Better for paypal to dump cryptome to protect their "more lucrative" albeit more less forthright customers...
I take notes all the time with my laptop. You can use your camera phone or webcam to snap a photo of the diagrams. If you have permission, record the lecture as well if you have a built-in microphone (use Dragon Naturally Speaking or something similar to write the notes automatically.)
Offer to share the information with your prof or student teacher and they will usually give you the green light or become the note taker for the class (some schools have them for hard of hearing/deaf students - R.I.T.)...
If you use something like MS OneNote you can drop all these separate pieces onto the note pages and keep them better organized. Text, your notes, the sound clips, and the diagrams...
What can untangle the pairs? How stable is the entanglement?
Also, how much energy does it take to do the correct measurement to receive the transmitted energy?
Depending on how much energy can be transferred in this method, would it be possible to mass a large amount of entangled pairs and send them into the Sun (or a solar array in space) that could then transmit that energy back to the other pair located somewhere on Earth?
Limitless energy with no loss to transmission... Sweet deal...
BTW, which do you think will come first? The civilian or military use (if the military isn't already using it in some fashion...)
Floats to the surface and skim the contaminants off the top???
Quite the trick if it absorbs some sort of heavy metals.
Exactly how does it not drip yet you skim the material off the top. Who get's to squeeze the contaminants out?
The more exposure the IOC's lawsuits bring to their activities the the more idiotic their actions will be perceived. The lawmakers will eventually cave as the whiplash from the public outrage nails them...
My wife is in the same boat as you - she had lots of slides (~3000) from her parents, lots of 35mm negatives (too many to count), and a bunch of photos (again thousands) from all different formats.
I ended up buying her a Nikon Coolscan V ED for her to scan in the 35mm negatives she has and her parent's slides. She has been very happy with it. I already had an Epson 2450 flatbed scanner...
She scans the slides, photos, and negatives while working on other projects in her office. The easiest tool I found for the photos is Adobe Photoshop CS (a bit expensive, but worth every penny - you could download a trial version from Adobe.) You put as many photos as can fit on your flatbed scanner (no need to straighten them perfectly), scan the photos, and then click on File --> Automate --> Crop and Straighten Photos - this will break up all the scanned photos into individual files, arrange them so they are straight, after which you can then edit and save each one.
There are probably some scanners where you can feed photos in - but some of the photos we have are irreplaceable (no negatives or copies.) We would not want to see them lost due to a scanner feed malfunction.
Also, do yourself a favor, and make backups of the work that you do. You would hate to lose all that effort due to a hard drive failure.
You have to wonder if this is how we remember parts of our lives or photos. Storing mostly everything in B&W and then colorizing it with scribbles in keyframes.
Maybe this is why people remember colors in different ways (from what they actually were) when they look at them years later. Or why some people seem to think we dream in B&W...
The only clear trend shown from your trend link is that Kerry is losing in the polls...;-)
One has to ask who are the idiots who let NPD track what is on their harddrives? (NPD Group's MusicWatch Digital who track the contents of people's hard drives)
As mentioned in previous articles - most people rip their own CD collections to their HDs and have most of the music they want from DLs/file sharing/friends/etc. Additionally, most new music is shite anyways.

Say for example, it encountered an alien lifeform which "convinced" it not to take a picture or report the alien's existence?
The robot would go along reporting "Nothing here. Nothing there."
Also, as other's mentioned, what if it said - "Why the hell do I want to die on an alien planet? I am staying right here and not budging..."
