A man walks into a Chinese restaurant and sees the owner reading the paper and smiling. He asks what he's happy about and he points to the front page of the paper which says "100000 Chinese killed in combat!" with "10000 Japanese killed". The man is confused as to why such a stunning loss would be cause for happiness. The Chinese man replies "At this rate, there soon won't be any Japanese left!".
China is BIG. They've got roughly 1/5 of the world's people. They've got more people than the EU, the US, Japan, and even Russia all put together.
That thing is several feet longer than a McMillan Tac-50! The only thing I can think of that comes even close is a Lahti L-39, and I think even that thing falls a couple feet short.
And anyone who says that's an AK-47 needs to be sent to an optometrist immediately.
Problem being, paper ballots get a bit messy when you're having a super-election, as seems to be preferred. One might be voting for president, vice president, federal congressman, federal senator, state representative, state senator, state governor, state ballot measures, judges, prosecutors, chief of police, city mayor, city counselor, municipal bylaws and ballot measures, bond issues, and the city dogcatcher all at once.
And I cannot think of an optimal method to deal with this.
Just find a company that has a clue and cares with respect to actual work done per dollar productivity. There have been multiplestudies that have found a nap in the afternoon substantially boosts alertness and productivity, so the employer gets more work done for their money and the employees are also generally happier.
Though often we end up with progress (too often "progress") for progress' sake.
I've lost count of the number of times I've had something break and I end up having to replace the entire thing rather than a single part. Recent example, the thermostatic value in my shower went and rather than just replacing the value (which would have cost about $30, but isn't made anymore, after just 2 years), I had to replace the entire assembly for about $200. And the only difference I could find between the old and new is they have a different handle.
I'm sure this is absolutely wonderful for profits, but it sure as hell pisses me off.
the recent Obama administration ban on CFC-based inhaler delivery systems for drugs like Albuterol. There IS no proper replacement for these
Obama has nothing to do with that.
the CFC bans is covered by the Montreal protocol, which was signed in 1987 (And the accompaniment amendments to the clean air act for enforcement were made in 1990). Also, the ban on CFC-based MDI propellants went into effect in the US in 2008 and will be worldwide in 2010.
And I thought I was the only one who used that method.
Only issue is it sometimes breaks when moved between computers, especially ones running different versions of Windows, probably due to slight differences in the shortcut format.
The article on Bush was topping the "most revisions" list for quite awhile. It has since fallen to 36th, though most of the ones above it are in the wikipedia namespace and aren't really "articles" per se.
1. Good game, though very crash-happy. 2. I personally liked the side-quests and the random exploring best. 3. The crashes which happened at least hourly. And going by the forums, a lot of people are unable to even start the game without it crashing. 4. Fun game, but it seriously needed more development and QA time. 5. I've only done the one where you save the counsel, but next time through I'm going to let them die and see what happens. 6. the paragon and renegade metres open up points in the charm and intimidate skills, but they don't really affect the storyline.
Marijuana is definitely not funding terrorists, but there's a fair to middling chance that illegally sourced stuff derived from opium poppies (heroin, etc.) came from the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Isn't the real fix that we improve the countries they are outsourcing to until the economy there demands the same as US salaries?
At that point, they move on to the next haven of cheap labour. Eventually everything should theoretically equal out as you say, but we're talking in the decades time span for that to occur, which leaves us with what to do about the immediate problems.
Specifically, the "all parties" states are California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Montana, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Washington.
Big generators. I got a tour of the local central phone office in my city (population of about 32k). The batteries alone will run the system for 2 days and they have a diesel generator the size of my car with 3 weeks worth of fuel.
Does "parallel" not imply being able to operate independently?
The series/parallel difference is how the engine is used.
Parallel means that the engine provides the power to move the vehicle and the electric motor assists in parallel when needed. "full" hybrids can also run on just the electric for a time at low speeds, whereas "mild" hybrids (which use smaller, cheaper electric motors) cannot.
Series hybrids just use the engine as a generator and the electric motor(s) provide all the power to the wheels. The engine has no mechanical connection to the wheels.

Yes. Nothing of interest happened when the Enterprise-E was there in First Contact.
This distinctly reminds me of an old joke.

Hell, with modern pebble bed reactors, you can do just that and the reactor will just power itself down.
I would think 90210 is a more common choice for zip code. It's probably the most densely populated area on the planet according to dataminers.

Where are you getting your exchange rate from? Closest I can get is $30 CAD is 19.30 Euros, and nothing converted from $30 USD is even close.

Actually, OrgCars are adding keys and locks.
Network engineers typically aren't engineers in the legal sense. I only know one that can put P. Eng. after his name.
Yeah, so can anyone who's competent with networking.
Or incompetent.
Yes, because poor people in America are average Americans.

because that delays progress of new technology

For another interesting datapoint, MDMA (aka ecstasy) is FDA approved for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder.
Marijuana is definitely not funding terrorists, but there's a fair to middling chance that illegally sourced stuff derived from opium poppies (heroin, etc.) came from the Taliban in Afghanistan.

They're probably selling multitouch capable devices with vista and an upgrade voucher for 7.

Someone better tell Novell.
