While the PZEVs are most likely hybrids, I don't believe all the hybrids on the market are the PZEVs. The Civic Hybrid gives out the roughly the same amount of pollution as a regular car does once it goes to running on gas.
There are PZEVs that are not hybrids and hybrids that are not PZEVs. However, the Accord being discussed is a hybrid and PZEV, as is my 2005 Civic Hybrid (per its sticker).
Is it because the popularity of green vehicles is shifting crop production and making food prices go up (motivating the legal discouragement of green vehicles)?
No, the Accord has no impact on crop production as it runs on regular gasoline. It just emits less pollution. As an owner of a hybrid PZEV vehicle (Civic Hybrid) bought in the red state of Virginia, I'm going to call BS on this story. Either the author, Volvo, or both have gotten themselves confused.
Historically, ground-based triangulation used local positioning systems and not global positioning systems. Studies have shown that countries that fund basic research out-perform countries that do not in both education and economics. If you want to argue based off ideologies, that's fine, but do realize that you're tilting at windmills and not being pragmatic.
Actually, I'm pretty sure that LaTeX gets its unusual capitalization from TeX, which is capitalized that way based off its logo emphasizing its typesetting abilities. Of course, there are also quite a few derivatives: ConTeXt, TeX-XeT, MiKTeX, TeXeT, BibTeX, and others. And, lest you think you can screen for the existence of "TeX", there's also LyX. Still, dumping them into a user dictionary is a relatively painless way of dealing with them.
I've seen some very large, profanity-laden edits. Many of these more than double the size of the article. These are not the majority of vandalisms, but they are a significant fraction.
This is probably the result of an "upgrade" in order to improve efficiency. The old (###)555-1212 numbers now get rerouted to a central location. That central location looks at the area code of the person calling instead of the area code called. Progress!:(
Now are you just making this up because it sounds reasonable, or are there actual laws to this effect? Don't take this personally, I'm just a natural skeptic.
Surely the whole point of standards, be they national or international, is that they are not allowed to depend on encumbered "intellectual property". So if OOXML is adopted as an ISO standard, then all the necessary patents will have to be annulled!
Sure, that's the point. However, if it becomes a standard anyway, that doesn't mean that after the fact MS is going to be voiding any patents! (The only "hope" would be if it were necessary to void the patents in order to get standards acceptance.)
Remember that any overlap between logic and committees is pure coincidence!
It seems that very few things that you think are true for all states actually are. However, I would have expected nothing (i.e., no response) before I would have expected it getting re-routed to local information. You mom doesn't happen to live in Colorado, does she?;)
I'm a small enough customer that the utility tacks on a charge for the privilege of charging me. (Actually, I think most customers get this charge, but it's a significant fraction of my bill.)
The undergrads aren't paid at all, and in almost all labs part of that money is going to "the one guy who sat on his fat butt with 3 letters after his name". Incidentally, in our lab, some undergrads are paid and other undergrads do work for research/thesis credits. The guy with the 3 letters after his name does an awful lot of work himself. All joking aside, I'm pretty sure that's the norm.
If you're buying from your electric company, you don't buy power at all. You buy energy (which would be Joules, Watt-Hours, or, typically, Kilowatt-Hours). If you're buying your own power generation source, then you're very likely buying based off of how much power can be delivered — which is measured in Watts.
Why? You're the first person I've heard from who supports him. I'm curious as to why you like him. (This is not meant in the sense of "why in the world would you support him?!?")
The end result would the reduction of almost all of the interior states to irrelevance, both during the campaign and also the election.
It would be a reduction of their relevance in proportion to their population. Why does that seem like a bad thing? This sounds almost like an argument for reverse-elitism. (I.e., that people living in the interior somehow "know better" than the rest of us.)
This statement is meant for no other reason than to give weight to the claims, not discuss the issues intelligently.
This statement often comes after all attempts to discuss the issues intelligently fall on deaf ears. Is there a particular issue you would like to discuss? I'd recommend starting with an FAQ. Therearealotoutthere.
Even if true, "most scientists" once thought we would see an ice age within 50 years of the 1970's.
Only if by "most" you mean "very few". There were about as many climate scientists who "thought we would see an ice age within 50 years of the 1970's" as there are climate scientists now who think it is possible (> 5% probability) that humans are not primarily responsible for global warming.
If we assume the cubes are 39 mm for all 3 dimensions, each one is 59 cm^3. Therefore, you could fit 1,000 of them in 59,000 cm^3 (2.1 ft^3, agreeing with your calculation), which would be a cube that was 39 cm (1.3 feet) for all 3 dimensions. So yes, a wee bit big.

That was exactly my first thought. The only end result I see is OUP being more careful to reject such papers in the future.

CodeShark (the GP) made the mistake of thinking like a person instead of a manager.

(area code) 555-1212 — this connects you to information for any area code, AFAIK.

If we promise to relocate the scorpions to Michael Vick's jail cell, I think we can cut a deal with PETA.

39 mm on a side = 39^3 mm^3 or 59,319 mm^3. Google is great, but GIGO.

If you'd RTFA, you would notice that, according to Microsoft, indeed respect does own "the government's decision".
