You know nothing of safety. Engineering safety controls are more robust than policies (like look both ways). But better still are when multiple controls are used. Redundancy is good. It's easy to think up scenarios where just looking both ways will fail.
Holy bad journalism. That really changes how I look at the problem. Cars just generally suck, but freight trucks are fairly necessary if we want to continue to live in cities.
The children may not be familiar with the convention of using a letter to label a variable. Using a blank for the variable is more obvious to someone who hasn't seen it before, provided that the variable isn't reused in the expression. 4+3+2=_+2 Fill in the blank
Or you can restate the question so no knowledge of the convention is necessary: 4+3+2=x+2 Replace x with a number so that the equality is true.
The risks are huge. If they mess it up, it could mean millions lose their retirement funds and the economy is left in shambles. As for personal risk, not so much.
Factories and jobs are moving overseas because of globalization. As transportation becomes easier and trade treaties become more prevalent and communication improves, it's only natural for jobs to move from high paying areas to low paying areas, and for local economies to grow more similar to each other. With perfect competition, when borders are completely eliminated, and investment in infrastructure has taken place, there will be pay equity between different countries. Yeah, workers in wealthy countries won't like it, and they'll argue that it's exploitative to export labor. But really, the rich will feel it, too, albeit later. Poorer countries will learn to manage their own resources, and won't need foreign managers. Foreign entities won't be able to own all the infrastructure forever. It's an unstable scenario which will eventually collapse due to revolution or confiscation of capital. Corporations try to stave this off by bribing governments and purchasing military power, but as the wealth and education of the overseas workers rises, they will demand more control of their infrastructure.
Money is used to purchase goods and services. Even if the money will eventually return to the system, goods are being moved upward to the uber-sucker and people are laboring on behalf of the uber-sucker. Your argument is silly; he may not be sucking money out of the system, but he's sucking resources out of it. If I steal a million dollars from you and pay it back to you in exchange for foot massages, am I recirculating money and providing you with a job?
No single person could ever believe the idea that god had a head of an elephant or jackal, or that god created woman from man's rib. But somehow, when a billion people believe it, it's easier to fall in line.
I dispute the claim that Apple doesn't have a team of PhDs working on technology. My former coworker, a PhD in particle physics, left our company to work for Apple. He now works on super secret stuff that he can't tell his wife about.
Neutrons are best blocked with materials containing light elements like hydrogen. Sometimes a combination of lead bricks and polyethylene bricks is used around a target in a fission based neutron source. The lead bricks block gamma rays, and the neutrons scatter off the hydrogen in polyethylene, slowing them down until they can be absorbed. In Alcator C-Mod tokamak, a concrete neutron shield is used.
Lithium is mined, not generated. It is used in the breeder blanket to produce tritium by the reaction n + 6Li --> T + He.
Evaporative cooling won't work by itself, but that's where the dessicant factors in. The dessicant will bring the humidity down well below 100%, and then evaporative cooling will work wherever you live. Of course, drying out the dessicant will be harder, but it won't be impossible.

Horn requires the driver to see the pedestrian, and react. The motor sound runs continuously.
How about some heavy bass beats from an indeterminate hip hop song?

Err, _all_ smoking in cars? What if the driver doesn't have any passengers? That makes no sense.
Android is what, 22 months old?

Perhaps the answer is to use something like electron beams or atomic beams instead of photons.
Of course, the more people with access to secret documents, the more likely they are to get leaked. Easier to just keep everything secret.
We can always switch back to hydrogen. Just make sure the skin isn't made of something flammable.
I suppose, the start-ups will just have to move to China.

Correct, and it's a broken system. We should not be paying for results in terms of dollars, but results in terms of benefit to society.

last I smelled, cigarette addictions haven't been solved. Addicts are just poorer.
It doesn't work because of the chemical dispersants that BP added to the spill. Now what good did these dispersants do?
But whoring your son out for money, that's gravy..

Actually, China seems to be doing a pretty good job of fixing poverty and hunger. http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/2010/06/reporters-notebook-obesity-rising-in-china.html
I'm not sure they are going about it right, but you can't say that they are as poor as they were 40 years ago.
Maybe the FBI preferred to watch them closely for more information while they did their thing.
and who do you suppose will pay for the cleanup of coal pollution?
