How is it that teenagers are getting child porn charges for simple nudity or partial nudity? Nudity alone isn't generally considered porn. There are a number of movies a person can rent from a regular video store or buy on Amazon that have minors nude. (Pretty Baby, American Beauty, Zeffirelli Romeo & Juliet etc)
An Ipod Touch can receive Internet radio through various apps, and it can fulfill many other functions as well. Why bother buying these one-purpose devices that usually cost almost as much, if not more than an 8GB Ipod Touch?
There are probably smartphones (including the iPhone) that can do it, as well.
Why couldn't they have rigged up some cheap 4-wheeled robots to carry targets around? Then there would be no need for the expensive Segway balancing mechanisms.
I can't wait to see what the Daily Show and Colbert Report can do with this. They'll sometimes run footage of politicians contradicting themselves, such as a "debate" between Candidate Bush and President Bush. This should give them even more material to work with and call them on their bullshit.
RC airplane flyers already have planes with real-time video feeds and some of them even have head-tracking goggles. Of course, they tend to be much smaller and short-range than a military drone.
I can't stand the latest Quicktime Player. They've moved the controls so they're on top of the video you're watching, and you can't move them off of it. Any time you use the video controls, part of the video is obscured. It's maddening, I'm always shifting the controls to where they're least objectionable, and enlarging the video so they don't block as much of it.
Even if that works on files you drag into the Trash, what about your browsing history and cache? Are those securely deleted when you clear them in Safari?
No, that is a indeed a fantasy. A self-sustaining base has to be able to produce food, clean water and energy. It has to be able to make replacement parts, and that means mines, chemical plants, machine shops, factories and chip-fabrication facilities. Oh, and also universities. That is a pure, utter fantasy given our current technology and our capacity for space travel. We can't make a self-sustaing colony on Antarctica or underwater, so why would you think we can do it on another planet?
There's plenty of reason to fear a plane that has military escorts, if the plane is over Manhattan. An air-to-air missile cannot vaporize a 747. If it was trying to do a kamikaze and they shot it down over Manhattan, it would simply crash in a slightly different place than it was aiming for.
I believe JMS addressed the question of re-doing the CGI. He said that they had lost all the 3D models, so they had no way of updating the graphics. They would have to do everything from scratch, and nothing would look exactly the same.
There are also other issues, such as the prominent early-90's fashion in the early episodes. It looks pretty dated.
Actually, it's called the parking brake, and it's there for... PARKING. It's better than nothing, but it won't slow you down nearly as fast as the regular brakes.

Are there any news stories or other citations for that case?

So add one hinge and motor, and tilt the target back and forth if you want. That's still a lot simpler than the Segway's gyros and all that crap.

In Soviet Russia, television controls mind. In America, mind controls television!
This animation was with with the Russian version, called ASCIISKI.

You gonna pay extra for gas from a station that pays its clerks "living wage"?

They're showing it now. It's called the iPad and it looks like a big iPod Touch or iPhone. Big-ass touchscreen.
Just when I caved and bought my 58-plasma, now they're gonna make it obsolete? Will this work on existing TVs?
If he's just now become happy with the prototype, how are they going to be mass-producing it and selling it in just a month?
If you want more information on that plane, you should read the book "Horten flies a Ho."

Electrostats have to be placed several feet out from the wall for optimal sound, which defeats the purpose of having really thin speakers.

The previous 20" iMac had a TN screen, and the 24" was an IPS. What kind of screens do the new ones have?

Do they still allow papers to be served by way of a dance-off?
Isn't there some requirement for a dance-off, as well?
