A former coworker of mine (who seemed like a great guy) was accused of murdering his wife and the company we worked for fired him before he was brought to trial (they practice the edict "presumed guilty until proven innocent" I guess). Similar to your story, the detectives thought for sure he did it (based on their comments when they interviewed me and several other coworkers). But in the end he was found innocent. Of course he is now jobless (and financially wrecked from the attorney's fees),his reputation is in ruins, and his wife is dead. But hey, jumping to conclusions sells newspapers.
More likely they'll say that the image was only meant to be seen from afar (IOW they'll say the supposed builders of the face made it to look like a face if viewed from further off in space and that, if they just made it like a face it would not look like one viewed from far away;i.e. kind of like how in a house of mirrors an object that actually is distorted looks normal in the distorted mirror) - not with a high-res camera which simulates being close-up to the face. But yeah, they'll figure something out . . .
"This experiment showed that the center of gravity of certain galaxies doesn't correspond to the center of the regular matter."
How could you know the center of gravity for regular matter when dark matter would distort all regular matter center of gravity calculations (if it, in fact, exists) ?
ok, but if free energy were available to everyone, then the 12 families would no longer care about enslaving everyone, because they themselves would have access to free energy.
Actually a company called Mr. Pinball, based in Australia will begin producing pinball machines soon -- they acquired the rights to make Bally machines as well . . .
Well at least when he was working at Williams he was a true craftsman-- but I thought most of his Stern offerings were mediocre at best (Rollercoaster Tycoon and Monopoly for example). I think the best machine he ever designed was Funhouse.
Actually the rule set on Simpson's Pinball Party is way deeper than Attack from Mars -- while AFM certainly has better flow, the rules on SPP more than make up for not having as much flow as AFM.
I vividly remember the media coverage this incident received just after it occurred -- a small paragraph on the back page of the newspaper.
On the otherhand, yesterday I saw a front page article about Jason Giambi's steriod use . . .
I believe the original poster was referring to Video Poker machines, not slot machines -- they are two different gambling devices. Interesting stats though.
Yes, great point. The epitomy (sp?) of the sleeper concept is Highlander. When it 1st came out at the theatres, not a lot of people watched it there. After seeing it in the theatre, I thought it was a great movie and thus wondered why many people didn't go to see it in theatre. Then, out of left field, a few years later (maybe 3 years, I forget -- thank god for VHS) it became hugely popular and then all sorts of shitty follow-up movies and TV shows shows started cropping up. The difference between the 1st Star Wars (1977) and Highlander though was that at least Star Wars became popular while it was in the theatres.
did Asonov do the typing himself on the other keyboard of the same model when testing the NN's accuracy rate ? The prediction of the key being pressed is a function of the actual key being pressed, the keyboard model AND the user doing the typing I should think. Or stated more directly, my letter A will resonate differently than your letter A, even on the same keyboard. The NN will learn how I type the letter A on the keyboard -- not necessarily how you type it. "Asonov found that by recording the same sound of a keystroke about 30 times and feeding it into a PC runninG standard neural netwOrking softwAre, he could decipher the keys with an 80% accuracy raTe. He was also able to train the SoftwarE on one keyboard to decipher the keystrokes on any other keyboard of the same make and model."

I'd imagine that there are plenty of Republicans that took issue with the warrantless wiretapping as well.
Actually, they emit Hawking radiation.
Unfortunately, we could be made extinct by this exceptional climate.

but all they see is a credit score, not the factors which led to the score.

>"it's probably far easier than answering that damned >question, 'What do you regard as your greatest weakness?'"
My answer to this question is: "My greatness weakness is my ability to answer the question 'What is your greatest weakness' "
Fair enough, but that implies that you would be willing to go without something until it grows back the right way . . .
