Of course. Sexism is not a two way street and, in some cases, proudly used to demonstrate some "difference" between sexes when there are differences between humans regardless.
It's OK if a "minority" or a woman does it, but when you or I do it? All bets are off.
Sooner or later sexism will go away. It hasn't yet.
The mods may have found this funny, but I find this interesting.
Is it possible to modify the trajectory? Is it simply too far away to get to the sun? If the fuel already too frozen to be utilized?
If it's going to be an orbiting piece of frozen metal, we may as well send it to a fiery and possibly information gathering demise.
No, but seriously, the story as a whole is kind of sad.
If you had a doubt...

That this movie is good, then your doubts are misplaced.
There is nothing I did not like about this movie. The acting is great from all parties. The effects are, simply put, awesome.
The product placement can be a little off-putting, but what placement isn't? (American cheeseburger. How quaint.)
I am willing to see it again. This has to be one of my favorite superhero movies of all time. Probably the mest movie yet in 2008.
So that means Knight Rider was picked up as a series? You know, that burns me a little. I loved the original Knight Rider and by God, I liked the new movie (gasp!).
But did the movie need to be one giant Ford ad? I still can't acclimate to KITT being a mustang. Oh, and the lame, dull and irritating Mike/KITT commercials into the breaks were completely unnecessary. Damn you, NBC.
The GMC truck meeting a messy end was a nice touch, too.
I'm a proponent of "Safety through not doing stupid shit," but I still have some sort of AV/Antimalware/Etc. It just pays to be safe, even if you think you're sure that where you are going is clean.
My point is that average users don't know to do the things we do. They go on Myspace, they click on the spam emails, they click on the 'Urgent System Scan' craptastic popups. They simply don't know and most don't care to know the safe way to surf. They need an AV that works, which is the point of the article.
A 20 year lesson for doing something so insanely stupid? No. That isn't the right course of action.
A fine of $5000 seems reasonable, as a poster said above.
Ruining someone's life after they didn't actually cause harm or kill anyone? Wrong.
Punish them. Don't obliterate them.
Gladly.
No, seriously. If given the opportunity to go into space, I would go in a heartbeat. Of course, I'm not stupid, so I'd gladly go into spaceflight training first.
It's one of my life's goals. To finally be in space.
I would like to thank you for chiming in on the subject and enlightening us on the goings on (for a small part, I'm sure) in NASA.
Moreover, I would like to thank you for simply working for NASA and helping those you work with and those of us who can benefit from you and your colleagues' work.
I may not have gotten some of those jabs, but damn, that was funny.

It's jerks like you that people hate when driving on the road.
Flash your high beams right in someone's rear-view? That's dangerous. Drive "dangerously close"? How is that justifiable in any situation? Oh, but it's only to "wake him up".
Try telling that to the cop that arrives on the scene of the rear-end accident that you just may have caused.

Sure, these will be handheld. But in the future, they'll be directly injected into you by a DRD.
The scene in The Matrix where Agent Smith likens humanity to a virus comes to mind.
I'm not going to see it until it comes out on DVD.
Why is the parent modded Insightful?
He hasn't even seen the movie yet.

Well, you still have to worry about... ELECTRO-GONORRHEA!

It would certainly account for the fact that seemingly ordinary locks spark when unlocked by the sonic screwdriver.

But how many are going to actually follow through and actually carry out these plans?

I wholeheartedly agree. That episode is my least favorite for that reason. It's so damn sad.

I can only hope to work for NASA.
Kudos to you, sir.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but did you just quote The Doctor?

Priceless.
Throwy McChairface.
Damn, man. That was deep.
I mean +10 Insightful deeeep.

Driving like a prick is never ok.
That's just my opinion, I could be wrong.
Yeah, but it's Sunday.
Yeah, but this probably won't be made anytime soon.
Saw an episode of Dirty Jobs, and Mike Rowe was in a factory where they were preparing some sort of fish.
For protection from the razor-sharp knives, they had chainmail gloves.
I would assume that both would work equally well in that situation, but the chainmail is apparently what's used in some places.
