The experiment is to see if THIS prayer had an effect, and it doesn't.
Specifically, this experiment showed that THIS prayer by THESE PEOPLE had no effect. If you use the Bible to analyze prayer, it's not what is said inasmuch as who is saying it. So this test did a good job proving that God didn't listen to these particular people.
What came first? The computer virus, or the computer. Early computers were not computer viruses.
To support this statement further, if you look at every byte (including deleted bytes) on a computer, you'll also find plenty of traces of past viruses, at least if you're running windows. It doesn't mean the virus created the computer, just that the computer has had many viruses.
flat-earthers aren't getting school boards to mandate the flat-earth hypothesis be taught in science classes.
That's because this hypothesis is still being presented along with the looming debate of the time, and much scientific reasoning to support the alternative theory that the earth is round. Rather than do this with creationism, it's much less work to just sweep it under the rug and not present it at all so that they can just program evolution into kids rather than teach anything.
Because among actual scientists, evolution is as much an established fact as gravity.
Is that what they tell you to say? Seems strange, then that many prominent scientists, such as Behe, professor of microbiology at Lehigh and author of many books such as "Darwin's Black Box", would believe in creation then. It also seems weird that it's the "law of gravy" and the "theory of evolution" yet both are treated as fact. There are many in the so-called scientific field who are creationists, and it's just plain ignorance to suggest otherwise. But thanks for illustrating my point about bias - you clearly represent the majority of your intellectual class.
We don't consider science to be subject to public policy, and as such, laymen don't get a vote.
And I must congratulate you on reinventing congressional redistricting. If you define your own lines so that you exclude any scientists who happen to also be creationists, then you've created yourself a little nutshell in a vacuum. That sure sounds scientific and respectable. After all, it's much easier to practice bad science if anyone who asks you to come up with a morsel of proof is quickly dismissed as a lay person. And your nice little trust-based system which lacks verification is very useful in ever having to be exposed as being a bad scientist. Even in my field of science (computer science), I've read many poor excuses for papers with very little if any merit which have been passed off as "science". Dumb idea built upon dumb idea, and eventually you can form some kind of theory that explains the bumbling stupidity going on in the scientific field. MUCH easier than actually forming credible theories and backing them up with fact.
Is it implying that we desended from a common ancestor or that we descended from sharks with this ability?
No, that is the author's bias implying that. The science merely shows us that there are some fantastic properties in these particular genes that found their way into sharks and humans. I don't understand why the evolutionists always use new, would-be completely neutral discoveries to try and push their agenda. This has absolutely nothing to do with evolution, and the same story could be published in a conservative newspaper under the heading, "Did God Use Some of the Same Ideas in Sharks and Humans?" My point isn't to try and start a flame war, just simply that it's poor journalism to take something completely irrelevant to origin of life and try to use it as a platform to advance your particular agenda. It makes for bad science.
Our reports aren't very important, as most institutions pay fraud takedown companies to monitor the net for phishing attacks using their name, and outsource the legal aspect of it all together. A company like Paypal wouldn't directly address phishing attacks, instead they would pay a very large sum of money to someone else to make it go away.
With that said, those hosting the phishing sites have been very responsive. I came across a paypal phish on poly.edu's network, emailed abuse, and it was gone when I checked an hour or so later, along with an email response in my inbox. Problem is that the burden of enforcement is more on the company being phished than the source of the attack.
I took a brief poll, and nobody seems to have a problem:
Bruce: I sure like being inside this fancy computer.
Vicki: Isn't it nice to have a computer that will talk to you?
Agnes: Isn't it nice to have a computer that will talk to you?
Kathy: Isn't it nice to have a computer that will talk to you?
Except the trinoids, who complained:
We can not communicate with these carbon units.
I wasn't sure which Carbon they were talking about.

I don't recall what OS you wanted to run, but the Apogee Ensemble is supposed to be "the stuff" I've heard.
I guess I am not a person since I like the Volkswagen GTI MkV [vw.com] ;)
You're in the other class of people with better things to do with their money than spend it on BMW (or Mercedes) repairs.

Frankly, I'd rather have only a new media player and better video drivers if it means not having yet more security holes in the base OS.
Sounds like you want a mac!
I want the people responsible for those features in my office early next week
With quotes like that, it's no wonder Vista's long list of features has been dwindled down to a new Media Player and better video drivers.
Since VirtualPC doesn't support 3D, why not just have him post a screenshot of a 3D program running?

That's been the consensus up until now. The article is about some scientists rethinking that interpretation based on new evidence.
For crying out loud, they found the stupid thing inside a host!

It is expected to orbit for 3 to 4 years before burning up on re-entry.
Or until it makes a hole-in-one in the tailpipe of an orbiting winnebago.
so popular that it poses its own public health problem: sore thumbs
As opposed to other bodily appendages that have also grown sore because of the Internet?

Sheesh, c'mon, as folllowers of gondii, they're peaceful toxoplasma.

Ouch, that sounds painful. Anybody ever had an octopus stuck to their sensitive equipment?
I bet the guy's drawers looked like they'd been squirted with octopus ink when he returned to shore.
Good lord, what the hell did he do to himself? Or do all the canadians piss black?
