Last year, a team of researchers in Warsaw carried out experiments to explore whether carbon nanotubes act in lung tissue the way asbestos does. In the April 15, 2001 Fullerene Science and Technology, the researchers reported subjecting guinea pigs to soot that did or didn't contain carbon nanotubes. Four weeks later, data from pulmonary-function tests didn't differ substantially between the groups. Autopsies didn't reveal significant differences in the animals' inflammatory reactions, either. On the basis of this initial evidence, the researchers suggested that "working with soot containing carbon nanotubes is unlikely to be associated with any health risk."
Too bad they didn't add a control of soot containing asbestos. So they could see what asbestos does in the same amount of time.
It may help if there was a way of leagal declaring someone no longer a "person", but still deserving humane treatement.
Her husband may have been more willing to give her body to her parents if she could be legally dead, but physically alive (animal). "Vegetative" is misleading in this case as she has more sentience than any vegetation I know. It is her sapience that seems lacking.
Francis Schaeffer did not have the benefit of Chaos Theory,
or more specifically Complexity Theory and emergent behavior.
I believe consciousness is an emergent behavior of an increasingly complex brain.
This model provides for both (mostly) deterministic behavior with total inability to predict states in the distant future.
I say mostly deterministic because there is room for Quantum effects.
Furthermore since non-linear feedback systems that Chaos and Complexity address are effected by previous states,
what you think, do, and input into your brain, greatly effect future states.
First 0.08% is the legal limit of BAL for most states.
It is not the level at which most people start driving recklessly.
Think about it if most of the people were incapable of driving safely at 0.08% BAL
then many people could not drive safely at 0.075% BAL.
You don't want to set the BAL to where most people start driving dangerously because too many people would be dangerous at a lower level. You should not drink and drive anyways.
Studies that compare driving ability to 0.08% BAL are poorly designed.
The studies show try to find how quantitatively how much more dangerous a driver the subject of the study is.
BTW Talking while driving also impairs your driving ability.
Actually in many orthodox theologies it does make you sinless. But by no merit of Christian, but through proxy by Christ.
Also it doesn't mean that the Chrisitan will not sin , but (s)he should realise the terrible price that Jesus paid for that sin.
Theologically, Chrisitans should be the most humble about their righteousness because it is not their own merit, it is Christ's.
As Paul said All that [his self earned righteousness] I consider garbage. Unfortuanately there are many Christians that do not realize this.
It is a tremendous piece of history whether it is 500 or 2000 years old.
No one know for sure how it was created. I'm leaning towards it being a camera obscura photograph of Leonardo daVinci. Primative photo-sensitive chemicals where know about in Asia during his time. If this learned and brilliant man found out about them (or came up with them on his own) he could easily have produced the shroud.
That being said, if the critic of the dating is correct, then it is a valid criticism. Dating the patch proves little.
I been using the following system for about eight years: 1) Palms up (rt index lsb, left index msb) 2) Use your thumbs as a "ground". 3) Open circuit is 0, closed (touching thumb) is 1
IIRC the SilenX PSUs are very quiet, but they had a tendency to overheat.
For the SilenX PSU you need to have cool air coming into your case, and good overall airflow managmenet.
I know the cabinet of my entertainment case tends to run much hotter than room temperature. If the HTPC unit is inside of a closed cabinet you may need to manage air flow of the entertainment center itself.
This really isn't any different then a human player
The overhead of cloning thousands of bots is very low. So a person can spawn off thousands of poker bots and play thousands of tables at one time. A human cannot do this.
No, he changed the garbage collection implemention during runtime. He was never fully destructed and had a resurection body not a spirit. Of course that last point is contested by some not standard distributions.
Yes I would not read a book on my computer monitor. But at about 100 LPI my monitor may be more readble than a 144 DPI. Since my monitor is 1600x1200, I can read larger font for the same amount of information.
Art magazine use 300 LPI. LPI is DPI/#Shades.
I also had an Apple ImageWriter, but reading large quantity of text was much easier on my eye when work got a LaserWriter. Also when we sent out for linotype at 1000 DPI it was even less stress on the eyes. And that was when my eyes were 16 yeasrs younger.
Look every system has a margin of error. Even asking people who they just voted for is pron to some margin of error.
Voting laws should take statistical ties into account. If the tally is within the margin of error, it is a tie. It should be treated a such.
All we need is one serious fuck-up, like California (the most liberal state around) being won by Bush, and you'll see voter riots. Which, incidentally, is how the rebellion in Haiti began.

Most hospital autoclaves reach 121C which should be no problem for silicone covers.

But asbestosis takes 10 to 30 years to develope after exposure, so that study would not have discovered any asbestosis (nanotubosis?).
If buckyballs are regulated like soot, by that logic, nanotubes should be regulated like asbestos.
BTW it's not assumed that the US has dot com. The US has dot gov.

Well not quite free, I pay about $45 per year to do online banking. But they pay for the stamps on checks I write online :/
Becoming a Christian doesn't make one sinless

like I know Suse..
Yes
Is it a good practice
Generally no
Why is it done?
I used to work for a company that during crunches would institute 777's (7am to 7pm 7 days per week).
We only got marginal more work done. Much of it of dubious quality. But..
1. It proved to our client that we were working hard on their project
2. We billed them for it.

Don't you see that Bush can claim that water is a WMD? A "Nu-que-lar" one at that.

BTW That was two uses of 'too' too. You forgot the 'also' meaning of 'too'. 2 da loo.
There's no phosphor on my screen you insensitive clod. It's LCD. ;)

At 170 dpi, it will be a bit of a strain for my eyes. It looks interesting but I'll wait for at least 300 dpi.
The margin of error comes from data entry. People make mistakes entering data.
Look every system has a margin of error. Even asking people who they just voted for is pron to some margin of error. Voting laws should take statistical ties into account. If the tally is within the margin of error, it is a tie. It should be treated a such.
