Yeah, I think that jurors who want to ensure a fair trial should answer the first question (whether they might have potential bias because they know one of the parties or witnesses) by pointing out that the lawyer is making this offer, and let the judge sort it out.
The point is that it's not LibreOffice's place to write an Outlook replacement. The job will be at least as difficult as reverse engineering the Microsoft Word formats, and LibreOffice isn't likely to have a good Outlook replacement for years to come. If you want to devote resources to the task, get involved in Evolution.
Nobody's integrated an Outlook substitute into OpenOffice because Outlook is very different from the other office applications (which are all centered around creating documents of various types). Outlook is focused on connectivity, mainly email, address books, and calendars and the open source world has had a full stack for these capabilities for a long time. The recommended way to replace Outlook is with open protocols (IMAP, LDAP, CalDAV), but if you need Microsoft Exchange support, that's available too. One can use Evolution as a substitute for Outlook.
OpenOffice and LibreOffice are both fully free. The difference between OpenOffice and LibreOffice is who's in charge, and whose contributions are getting accepted.

You should ask her if she remembers what it was like to search the web with AltaVista or Yahoo 15 years ago. It took a long time for search engines to get good at what they do, for Google to come around and give you relevant matches on the first page of hits most of the time.
Where can I find streaming video of the episodes online? I don't have a TV, but since I'm in the field I want to watch more than just the embarrassing outtakes.
Tunisia also tried packet sniffing to steal the Facebook passwords of everyone in the country, so they could delete the pages that were being used to coordinate protests. I'm sure it's only a matter of hours before someone at Facebook employs the same solution for Algeria, forcing everyone in Algeria to connect by SSL and turning on face-based identity verification, a feature whose introduction has already been discussed here on Slashdot
Why would anyone want to use Lovely-faces.com anyway? The response rate for people sending out messages to these 250,000 members has got to be zero. I'm not really interested in dating someone who doesn't respond to messages and won't talk to me, so the site's totally useless.
The life expectancy of someone with Marfan syndrome was 32 +/- 16 years in 1972, and is now 41 +/- 18 years (all you need to see from that link is the abstract). If I could guess that the increase has to do with improved treatment technology (rather than improved management strategies), then someone getting surgery for Marfan syndrome is probably in their 20s or 30s, because they're unlikely to live too much longer than their late 30's or early 40's without surgery.
These new features are a response to an attempt by Tunisian Internet censors tried to steal the Facebook passwords of everyone in the country to disrupt the protests against the government.
Depends what you call "space". He thinks of space as screen space. If it stays on his screen at all times, and he doesn't want it there, it's a waste of space. You're saying it doesn't save any page space to make the position absolute (and you're right, it doesn't). But once he scrolls, the absolutely positioned menu doesn't waste screen space anymore, since it's not on screen.
I'm surprised that the RIAA is more worried about piracy than having their domains bought up by speculators who will charge them millions of dollars for the names of their bands.
The response rate when people send messages to people they're interested in will be pretty close to zero. I can't see why anyone would find such a dating site useful.
This probably doesn't solve the main problem of bifocals, which is that people who need to wear them for the first time will still feel old. Graded lenses without the line that's visible to other people didn't solve that problem, and technologically cool LCD glasses won't either.

You mean... "God would have created us in such a manner or in a location so as to tolerate the particle flux. In the ocean, for example." Right?

Isn't this similar to the "Search Wiki" feature of Google that's available in every browser? Why didn't they just use that instead?

You're right. The original article I read didn't discuss exactly how the attack occurred, but once I knew what to search for I found an attribution to JavaScript pretty fast.
Still, both kinds of attacks have exactly the same defense.

It wasn't, for him, on that game, but the article goes on to speculate that it's extremely profitable for some people.
The timing is perfect if we want the bill defeated.
Then it's also a good thing the bill wasn't introduced right after a Terminator movie came out.
