By the end of reading your post, my pulse was perfectly in sync with the commas. If you had ended your post with ellipses instead of a period, there's a good chance I'd be dead right now...
The Secretary of the Treasury has determined that Americans (well, ~70% of them anyway) are attempting to undermine the economic and political reformation in Iraq. As a result, America has been seized. Thank you, and have a nice day.
After playing around with this new version of google maps, it looks like you get a close-up view of the waypoints you generate when you reroute. It would be nice if it were automatic, but it's doable at least.
I've been waiting for something like this for almost 10 years now. There have been countless times where the directions I'd get out of a map service are slower, even though technically shorter, than they could be. If I know a particular street is a mess because of construction, it will be nice to get a route that avoids that.
It will set a handy precedent. Eventually the earth will hit another ice age, and as the ocean water recedes, we will lay claim to all of Russia, on account of it being connected to the US via the land bridge in the Bering Strait. It's genius, I tell you.
When I bought my condo on California a couple years ago, I did an 80/10/10. That 10% HELOC loan worked like a credit card. I had a Visa tied to that account, so in theory, if I was dumb, I could charge anything I wanted to my house.
You're crazy. Things are worse now than they ever were before. When I was a kid, things were great. Now I'm an adult--things suck. I didn't change, the world did.
That was approximately my experience too. There weren't many women in my Physics grad program, and the ones there were leaned towards hybrid fields like materials physics or chemistry/physics, with their ultimate interest in medical applications.
5 of those 6 appear to be related to medicine or biology. I think those are two fields where women are not underrepresented in the work force currently.
There's also evaporative cooling in a magnetic field. The atoms you are cooling are placed in a magnetic trap, and the more energetic ones "boil" off, leaving the remaining atoms cooler. This combined with the laser cooling is what was used to create the Bose-Einstein condensate that Eric A. Cornell, Wolfgang Ketterle and Carl E. Wieman won the Nobel Prize for back in 2001. link
If you read the methodology link, there were only 56 companies in the survey. Also, the way the sentence mentioning this is worded, the "Top 40" should be read as the top 40 most *used* companies, not the 40 highest-rated companies. Regardless of that context though, being at the bottom of that list is not something to be proud of.
Pause for a moment and realize that 6 miles is approximately 10km, which is probably the "real" spec. Not only is it metric, but it's a power of 10, which gives me lots of warm fuzzies.
I didn't RTFA, but WTF? FYI IANAL, but AFAIK this is slander, AKA lies. I'd sue FTW ASAP. J/K, LOL.
I didn't reheat the fettucini alfredo, but why the fuss? Food you ingest isn't always noodles and liquid, but also fried and I know this is slander, all knavery and lies. I'd sue fraudulent temp waiters (and salt and pepper). Just kidding, love oily linguini.
I agree. And I get suspicious any time numbers are quoted in absolute terms. They claim that 100,000 man-hours of labor were lost due to internet surfing (a specious claim as it is), but out of how many total man-hours that entire year? I bet every gov't employee spending 20-30 min a day surfing onling adds up pretty fast.

Perhaps they rewrote Slashcode in LISP?
The generator part will be easy. The hard part is coming up with a battery that charges in 17 seconds...

Security through obscurity never works. That's how I learned to pick locks as a kid...

I'm quite confident I could live the rest of my life...
It's 20,160 rods/hogshead. Quite a milestone. (rodstone?)

I think it's called the "God gene."

This will be awful.
Maybe it just went from 10 people to 11 *shrug*

The child molester analogy is becoming common enough that it may supplant Godwin's Law.
