I'm not saying science funding would be unaffected with the cuts to the department. I pointed out in addition to the listed ~$12 billion cuts to research funding, there's more than $500 billion of tax cuts going to all sorts of companies already providing their own research funding to universities. While I was in graduate school, I saw plenty of research/papers backed by Intel, AMD, Nvidia, Microsoft, etc., and with Ron Paul's plan, those companies would have more money to do research. This also avoids the situation of tax money collected from one company, say Apple, being given to its competitor, say Microsoft, to do research that benefits the competitor.
How does cutting the Department of Education mean "no more public education?" Ron Paul just wants each state to be free to handle education without programs like No Child Left Behind waste teacher's and children's time and taxpayer money.
The overall goal of the plan is to cut spending, and the majority of that is through ending wars ($800 billion over a term). The plan also cuts these departments that happen to provide some science funding, but the goal is *not* targeting science; otherwise, he would have cut NSF and NASA.
Ron Paul knows that when the federal government stops doing something, e.g., science funding, the private sector (businesses and non-profits) will fill in -- most likely doing a better job than going through federal bureaucracy.
The plan also includes over $500 billion of tax cuts in addition to the $1 trillion cut from spending. These tax cuts will fund the science research without penalizing good companies that get taxed to pay for bad companies that happened to hire the right lobbyists.
The Smart Location Bar searches your history and bookmarks, so even if you clear your history, it can still search your bookmarks.
So the reason why your location bar is still showing your porn sites even after clearing history is because you've got them bookmarked.
In Firefox 3.1, you can change a preference to default search only your *visited* history (and not your unvisited bookmarks).

If I type "e", the first hit is...http://www.cnn.com. Because I visit that site frequently, and there's an "E" in the title. I would much prefer the first hit to be a site whose URL starts with "e", or at least one that uses "e" in some meaningful rather than meaningless keyword. (There are several such sites in my history, but I only visit them occasionally.)
So you're saying the Smart Location Bar found a page that you're more likely to use than an uncommon one? If you really want to have one of those infrequently visited pages to be at top, you'll actually have to select it from the list.
I guarantee that it'll be first next time if you've never picked out CNN for "e".
I don't want to type it in everytime I want to go there
I only used it for about an hour before dismissing it, but I reckon 1 hour is enough...
Did you even revisit slashdot within that one hour? Once you type in slashdot.org the first time, it should show up pretty high in the list when you type "s". It could even show up as the first result when you click the drop-down if you visit the site frequent enough.
Ask person 1 if person 2 is more likely to lie than person 3. There are several possible arrangements for these 3 people. For example, PRM would be peasant, prince, merchant.
In the situations where the response is "yes", the possible orderings are:
PRM, RPM, MRP, MPR
And for a "no" response:
PMR, RMP, MRP, MPR
Note that MRP and MPR appear in both because the merchant can say either. Also, in all the "yes" cases, the merchant is never in the second position, and the "no" cases have merchants never in the third position.
Ask the person that you know isn't the merchant a trivial question such as "Is 1 + 1 = 2?" With that you know if you have found the prince or the peasant. Then ask that same person if the first person is the merchant. Based on that result and knowing if the person is going to lie or tell the truth, you can correctly identify each of the three.
In the land of Gog, princes always lie, peasants always tell the truth, while merchants sometimes tell the truth and soemtimes lie. A tourist is enjoying an afternoon refreshment in one of the local pubs when the bartender (who always tells the truth) says to her: "Do you see those three men over there? One is a peasant, another a prince, and the third a merchant. You may ask them three yes/no questions, always indicating which man you wish should answer. If, after asking these three questions, you correctly identify the peasant, prince, and merchant, they will buy you a drink." The tourist is indeed very thirsty. What questions should she ask?
Yeah, I can confirm this. I followed access logs for apache on my computer as I hovered over links, and google servers made requests to my computer.
It wouldn't necessarily slow things down. Google is the one using its bandwidth (as well as the host), but the user will get a possibly compressed file from a nearby speedy google server. And it's not all bad for the host either because many people getting copies from the google cache reduces bandwidth for the original host.
One thing I noticed when looking through apache logs on my computer, Google fetches files if I access my computer by IP.
But what's even more interesting is that when I was in a directory listing, the web accelerator would prefetch links that my mouse is hovering over. I followed my access log and indeed there were requests to my computer when I put my mouse over a link.
But then I'm not sure how accurate that seconds saved can be. It's reporting.5 seconds saved for each page request from apache on my own computer!
How odd.. There used to be an OS X like interface for Web Images Groups, etc links as images that resize when you mouse over.
"Roses are red. Violets are blue. OS X rocks. Homage to you."
I managed to save the large images from firefox cache and modified google's cache of the page to use those images. The small images were clearer instead of being a resized large image, but I couldn't save those as well as the Video search images.
What is IE supposed to do? Is it supposed to fix all the CSS hacks and break those pages that were depending on the hacks? Things should be okay if they completely fixed everything to work just like other browsers, but if things are partially fixed, there'll be more broken stuff that require new hacks.
It's not just about how fast the systems perform in linpack. The machines should be calculating something useful, and if you feed it inefficient code, it'll be going nowhere fast.
Apple has created software development packages specifically designed for their G5's with optimized code for the 64bit architecture such as complex math functions.
So not only is Apple providing a cheaper and power efficient system for academic institutes, they make it easier for professors and assistants to create the software to run on those clusters.
This gets very annoying at times, especially if you accidentally type giigle.com instead of google.com and then it keeps on matching giggle.com for weeks when I type "g".
If you go to google.com more often than giggle.com, google.com should move upwards on the autocomplete list when you type in "g". But if you want to remove a certain entry, just select the entry in the list and press shift-delete.
And if you're just using google.com for searching, you can avoid the problem by just using the search bar or using keyword-bookmarks. I've got "g" for a normal google search and "gg" for a "I'm feeling lucky" search. "gg slashdot" to open slashdot in a new tab.
