It would be hard to employ a single person for a 24hour shift, at least for more than 3 days in a row.
In general to efficiently cover 24 hours you need three or four people.
Assuming $20k plus additional employer contributions of $10k. You'd be talking $90k - $120k for minimum wage security. If you want well trained people, the cost could easily double. Plus all the additional insurance you'd want if your security force is armed.
The gyroscopes are wearing out. They've done so before and been replaced, but they're going again and the batteries are fading. Without at least 3 gyroscopes Hubble can't be pointed accurately, and with less it starts having trouble maintaining attitude control and could potentially start to tumble and deorbit.
I guess we must ski in different parts of the world. While I can't claim to know anyone who skis while audio-impaired(enhanced?), I generally spotted a dozen or more such folks anytime I've gone skiing in the last two decades.
Not to be too harsh, but this problem has been around since the Sony walkman came out, about 25 or 26 years ago. You don't have to wait, people have been skiing and snowboarding with musical distractions for nearly a generation.
If I'm reading the wiki properly, it's a device for capturing to your computer, stuff off the airwaves (radio, tv, hdtv, et al).

You might want to start here http://xplanet.sourceforge.net/, at the least you'd get both the day & night images.
XPlanet does a wallpaper for X-windows or MS windows that runs in the background and shows day/night illumination plus near real-time cloud cover. Ambitious folks could probably mod it to do the equivalent as a screen saver.
There are Taco Bells in the middle of nowhere?
I would think if there was a Taco Bell there would be enough other supporting infrastructure for you to find power/fuel.
Can't speak to that, I only used VB once. I'm a bit surprised though that you could move from VB to Delphi without having some background in pascal... basic and pascal weren't all that syntactically similar.
was a good monster/zombie movie. While I haven't played all the different RE games, I can say that the movie captured the atmosphere of the games I did play and made for an entertaining film. I'm looking forward to RE2 this summer.
That's why many contractors develop their software under their own R&D efforts and sell the government the analysis work that they do with the code, or rights to use the code while maintaining the copyright themselves.
I've been involved with several contracts where we (largish aerospace firm) were concerned about that if we developed code under contract to the government ultimately we'd be giving that code away to our competitors. So unless the original government request-for-proposal said that they wanted us to develop software for them, software was almost always written using company funds in a parallel effort.
It gives the IP lawyers fits when source code is accidentally public domained.
I purchased my copy of the first edition in '91. It finally lost it's cover around 1995.
The cost of replacing the book would have been around $70 US.
The cost of having the book rebound was only $25.

I had a nicely functional book and $45 left in my pocket.
that a train moving that fast would make as it goes by.
Now imagine being too close to the track and getting sucked into it's wake.
Excitement all around
It always seemed to me that SCO was setting up this whole IP lawsuit deal as a way of ultimately forcing Linux users to pay them for the privilege. Seems like revenge for Linux cutting into a market that SCO folks thought they had all locked up and licen$ed to them.

Your right, I should have noticed that. The dimmer lines (especially the lighter colored ones) are easy to lose in the background.

Ruby is there, just off the end of SmallTalk, just above AppleScript.
Somehow I think they missed the boat on that one. Delphi is Borland's Object Pascal in a GUI driven environment.

This is the best darn book on network programming bar none. I wore the covers off the 1990 edition I first owned and had to get it rebound.

Anyone care to post a mirror or the article text?
