Check your library. Most will have audio books on CD that you could easily space shift to use in your iPod for a week or two while it was checked out to you.
Very thin, very wide objects, like a credit card, have a tendency to bend when put in a pocket. This probably isn't the best thing unless it's circuit board is printed on something somewhat flexible. I cube shape I would think would be somewhat more durible although you do have a point about surface area for controls as well as convienence for keeping in your pocket.
Thank goodness Indiana is going to implement DST statewide next year, though
While DST may be implemented sometime next year, it's still up in the air as to which way counties go. Counties near Chicago have obvious reasons to go central, counties near Louisville and Cincinnati to go eastern. Now how about places like Fort Wayne. We are somewhat economically linked with Ohio as we draw a substantial labor force from across the border. Television and print media also have some distribution across the border so there is some compelling reason for us to go eastern as well. But we are also large enough that we could support going central like most of the rest of the state likely will go. Central counties, such as the areas around South Bend, have their feet in both sides, able to go either way and no matter which way they go will piss someone off.
And the federal government has been little help either. All they say is "you decide which way you want to go and why." I just hope it doesn't end up that instead of a few counties being the "exception to the rule" like it is now, we don't have 1/2 the counties going one way and the other half going another. It's confusing enough already.
Technically though you did fail to yield. I don't think the judge would have likely dismissed the charges had the cop shown up and the cop was a dick for citing you. But you did not technically yield the right of way.
No. Criticism and critique are specifically exempted by fair use laws. Ideally you would put a link back to the origianal source or make clear where it came from when you do quote someone else's work. If you are just quoting a parent post, then the source is somewhat implied so an explicit link probably isn't necessary.
That being said, wholesale copying of an entire article, such as people who copy/paste a NTY article so that you don't have to register is a copyright violation.
By nature of copyrights, everything that you create is automatically copyrighted the instant that you create an origial work. This post has already been copyrighted by me.

How did Healthcare Advocates determin that Haridng Early was making hundreds of requests for files on the Wayback Machine? The logs would have been kept on the Wayback Machine's servers, not on anything Healthcare Advocates would have access to easily. Harding Earley would be accessing the files via the Wayback Machine's copies, not the copies that are kept on Healthcare Advocates website
I would imagine that the effects from being in space traveling with little particles going 5 miles per second as well as deorbiting and re-entering the atmosphere at 20,000MPH would have a sandblasting effect on the windows, especailly over multiple missions.
Some engineer spent several hours cleaning the windows with Windex and putting Rain-X on. The last thing they want to do on a million mile roadtrip is to leave with a dirty windshield.
Seriously though, they are there likely for enviromental protection. The shuttle sits outside for close to a month and in that time, it likely will rain, possibly hail, dust, acid rain, etc.
But do your kitchen tiles survive in -150 degree to +250 degree frequent tempature swings, deceleration from 20,000MPH, or 2,500 degree reentries? Just because they are easily damaged one way doesn't mean they aren't increadibly strong (for lack of a better word) another way.
Probably because Slashdot is ran by a few bozos in Holland Michigan or where ever they are located at these days. They don't have several thousand reports all over the world poised to jump on any instantly braking news to report it to you the instant it happens. They also don't pay to be a part of an AP or Reuters newswire, nor do they have autoposting news stories.
Slashdot is a glorified blog ran by people more or less at their convienence. When you think of it that way then a prime time news source, things are a lot more reasonable. If you even look at the article summary, you'd see that it was posted 21 minutes AFTER the press conference was suppose to happen to talk about if it was OK or not...2 and a half hours AFTER the actual incident happened.
It was just a temporary plastic protective panel that they place over the actual window while it just sits ready to launch. It's not really "attached" to shuttle like most pieces would be.
A 700MB Divx/XviD version of a 2 hour movie isn't exactly DVD quality, plus you are likely to lose any type of dolby digital/DTS sound in favor if just a stereo MP3.
I'm not tracking the case religiously, but I do remember reading on Groklaw that at one point SCO submitted a revised claims list that no longer included GPL invalid claims (or many of the other things they've tried).
SCO has argued pretty much both sides of every topic that they can. I think it's their strategy to shock and awe opposing counsel into wondering exactly what they are being sued over. So far, it has worked suprisingly well.
Is it too late for all those people yesterday to take back renouncing their citizenship and threats to move to Canada? Looks like they are safe to stay for at least another week or so.
Because in the mean time I have to foot the fucking $800b of my tax dollars to pay for the war. Plus then one of those several thousand soldiers that die is my brother. And all along, I can't say a single fucking word because a few of the religious whack jobs on the supreme court have said everything congress and the oval office has done or will do in the future is a.o.k in their view.
For me, if you want to hold a professional job, you need to look professional. That means not covered in tattoos, have 14 different body piercing through various body parts, etc. If you are insistent that you HAVE to have such body decorations, either cover them up with clothes (tattoos), or remove them (piercing). Ladies can have a pair, maybe two pairs of ear rings. Guys...unless you are gay, leave the ear rings at home. And if you have such desire to put those stupid rings in your ears that increase the size of your ear lobe, don't even bother to apply.
So just don't use an annoying ringtone. Most phones are loaded with a dozen of so, one of which almost always is just a basic ringing sound. Or if that doesn't suit you, go find a ringtone that suits you just fine and use it.
It's kind of like looking for a computer that doesn't have all that porn on it. It's not really an issue unless you put the porn there in the first place now is it.

According to the end of the article, they've already done it...well...maybe not lightsaber quality but at least enough to survive a hammer impact.

So was your girlfriend a politician or a terrorist?
Technically though you did fail to yield. I don't think the judge would have likely dismissed the charges had the cop shown up and the cop was a dick for citing you. But you did not technically yield the right of way.
John Qwerty just doesn't have the same ring to it though.

It's a plastic cover that comes off before launch. It would never have even gone up in orbit anyways.
It was just a temporary plastic protective panel that they place over the actual window while it just sits ready to launch. It's not really "attached" to shuttle like most pieces would be.
CNN is reporting that NASA has already given the go ahead for Discovery to launch. The damaged tiles on the tailfin have already been repaired.

I think you are both right. It can mean both very large and vast, or very wicked.
So how many have you read on the list?
Complete list here.
