careful, sex of your choice is probably a better reward.
Sex is the physical trait, gender is the social role so by choosing a gender of male you could end up with a person who looks and acts like a girl, with a little suprise tucked into her panties.
the point of adding VOIP services is to make broadband more attractive and to make THIER broadband more attractive. i wouldn't be suprised if TW makes little profit off the VOIP itself, but rather makes money on the people switching from Vz or dialup to TW because they can get Roadrunner, Digital Cable, and Digital Phone for $130/month or skip the TV and pay $80 per month.
cutting a wire buried underground even with a hand trowl isn't very hard, the soil on either side of the contact point holds the wire in place, over time the physical strenght of the cable insulation degrades and there are enough tough things underground that a little resistance wouldn't likely catch your attention.
hopefully the line you just sliced is single house telephone and not 440 Volts electric.
that system is far worse for the homeowner and contractor.
with the american system the UTILITY has the burden of reading charts correctly and a mismarked line is on them. with the UK system if the homeowner misreads the chart they are at fault.
not correct, aggregate info is much more valuable and more interesting than single data points
a single data point might tell you that fat american guys like tofu, veggie burgers and play football, aggregate data will correct this and tell you that most fat american guys like beer and watch football. thus you are better off with HDTV and Beer ads on your football info website than you are with Organic food and sporting gear.
they don't care what you buy as a person, the mine the data to look for patterns, such as
40% of people who buy Corn chips buy salsa at the same time Of that 40% 97% will still buy salsa if it is far away from the corn chips Of the people who buy corn chips and salsa 75% will buy peanuts if they see them (peanuts are near corn chips or salsa), only 10% of those people will buy peanuts when they have to go looking for them
conclusion: place a display of high profit margin peanuts near the corn chips or the salsa. (which it is can be determined by linking peanuts to other items associated with corn chips or with salsa in order to determine which of the two has more people near it who will pick up peanuts if the see them, but are unwilling to go looking)
this is why things like pie crusts and filling are often far apart, since most people who bake pies plan to bake a pie before they go shopping, but peanut butter and jelly are near each other, and often near the bread since parents shopping in a hurry are more likely to grab all three (just to be sure they have enough) if they are close together.
google is, primarally an enourmous, well amanaged distributed database. there is no way a significant amount of data could be pulled over time and the additional load on the servers not be noticed, unless it was completely passive monitoring it would have been found, and even passive monitoring would lead to a group of wires that don't fit with the patterns on the other racks and someone would notice.
if that so called man of a husband is such a coward he kills his wife in her sleep he SHOULD get the needle. either face her like a man or run off in the night and never come back.
adults who stay with abusive SO's are idiots and i have little sympathy.
OTOH parents who abuse their kids (not spank or even occasional belt for serious infractions, i am talking open wounds and broken bones) deserve a bullet in the skull and the kid who kills that parent should be given a farking medel or commendation or something of that nature.
build your home out of fire resistant and fire proof materials only, include a gas leak detector which starts brushless motor powered fans to ventilate the air. that way you can be sure anyone trying to smash through your door really does deserve the chlorine gas waiting for them in canisters withing the door itself.
with how bad bush has been, assuming complete lack of malice on the part of the no fly list it is a statistical certainty that at least a few authors of anti-bush books would be misidentified.
the purpose of the second amendment is to make it possible for an armed rebellion to overthrow the government if it becomes to opressive, as such i believe that the second amendment SHOULD apply to anything up to and including military standard issue personal firearms. not explosives or mounted artillary, but the american citizen ought to have the right to be armed with the same weapons our military uses, and thus the meapns the military could one day use to opress the civillian population.
google has come under fire by privacy advocates for it's massive storage of data. one weeks search term frequency wouldn't be all that exposing commercially since google's competitors can look at their own data and see pretty much the same thing.
this disclosure would be one more stick for the more *ahem* zealous privacy advocates to swing at google.
this request also would set the stage for other requests iin the form "everybody who performed $Potentially_incriminating_action" rather than "everything $user did"
it's only really a threat to the wikimedia foundation, as the NAZI government has no way of identifying the real name of american posters online. they can neither find the IP address related to the wikipedia pseudonym or associate the IP to an ISP customer.
beyond that even with a name they have no way of getting social security, passport, or Driver's license ID numbers to correlate the multitude of people with the same name to a specific person.
a few windows pentium 4's can be nasty, a unix server is far worse.
While i was attending binghamton university as a freshman a SINGLE unix server got owned. it annihilated the entire dual OC3 campus network. for nearly 3 days.
well having the same filter in place for everyone is brain dead in the first place. it should be AT LEAST divided by department. better would be to be divided by job description and responsabilities. anyone who may need to do research should have nearly unfiltered access, but with a scanner that alerts on potenially objectionable non-work content for later review.

Allegedly MS loses $200 or more on every 360 they sell. no price drops for a LONG time

hmm, i should look into that line of work as i am unaffected by Poison Ivy as well

not so much people changing as who is in charge changing.
