Concrete made with iron ore pellets, at least 3 feet thick, was what was used in the hot cell area of Argonne when I was touring there. The walls were made of that up to 8 or 9 feet high. And there was still a warning light anytime the Co-60 source was out.
The work was done behind a several feet of leaded glass, with master slave manipulators.
"The government is supposed to be on a relatively rapid path toward IPv6 migration since the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) mandated (PDF file) this past August that the federal government move to IPv6 by June 2008."
But yes, there is an annual IT budget that is impacted by this.
A little of both. The horizontal scanning frequency is 15,750 Hz (I think) and some but not all teens could hear it. I could, and going into a TV store would drive me nuts. Time and lots of rock and roll has cured that problem, and I no longer hear the TV sound.
So yes sound wave could be tuned so that some, but not all could hear it. You might annoy some adults, and be ignored by other kids.
I've already got bar code ID's for the grocery store, among others. A simple bar code reader, should be able to ID a person, via what ever tag they scan and hashing it down, and store/restore the settings based on that.
I don't need yet another dongle or id card to carry around. Devices that have an IR port for remote control it shouldn't be that hard to add the ability to scan a bar code.
As this was discussed on/. a bit ago, the best reason for NAT is to create islands of IP addresses for your network, otherwise you have to renumber everything when you change service providers. Multiple service providers is another problem.
Even if the cable and dsl companies all switched over to IP6, and there were $50 routers and switches available, there is still reason to use NAT.
If your paying for support, which the article implies, then of course if you customize your kernel and system over a standard patch level, then yes, the support should cost more.
AFAIK, one can still get those distros without having to buy a support contract.
I would think that if one had multiple racks, the ventilation could be done in between them, for example sucking the return air out of the middle of a pair of racks, and feeding fresh air in the sides. This could be extended as needed.
My thinking is a good rack system should have the airflow under control.
Of course the obvious idea of re-positioning the equipment for less security sensitive applications like federal employee personel files, or any other of a zillion sort of sensitive data items the federal gov keeps, is out of the question.
I can see why they wouldn't want it on the open market, but it is hard to see other branches of our gov as the "enemy".
AFAIK, OS X uses the BSD environment, over their own kernel. The environment is things like compiler, linker, lib, shell, cp and all those other little utilities we all know and love.
If they add it into the install process, they could have an all in one solution with db, web, web, and other services in one install pass.
Combined with in a blade or other server format, SUN should be able to unit that smokes the others on TCO basis, and can be advertised at a fixed dollar price, w/o additional license fees.
Or I remember in the 70's when a buddy printed out the basic code set for games, so he could key it into his new SOL computer.
One problem with the JCL meant it printed at one line per page! Oh, were the operators pissed when all (6 or 8) of those big chain printers ran out of paper and opened up at the same time.
Slashdot Mirror
6 is on Tripping the Rift another fine show. And being animated, there is physical limit to what she can do.
"I saw this on Mythbusters, and got to thinking."
Somehow I don't think that is the best opening for a paper.
I'd subscribe to an online delivered subscription, if it was cheaper than having to get cable and it's bundle of programs.
25 dollars or so for a seasons worth, compared to a minimum of 50/mo for cable, and no waiting for a dvd's to be pressed.

In summary, effective shielding is heavy.
Used to take us to a football game each year. One year, they had to fly us to an away game, cause they couldn't get home tickets.
Other company outings were, trip downtown to the theatre, a ski trip, etc.
In summary, anytime you take the company out and buy drinks and dinner, it is a motivating factor.
It is the season, take the whole company, including significant others, out to dinner at a fancy place.
From the fine article,
"The government is supposed to be on a relatively rapid path toward IPv6 migration since the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) mandated (PDF file) this past August that the federal government move to IPv6 by June 2008."

Supposedly, KO does this once a year, for the high holy daysthey make kosher Coke, which requires sugar.
AFAIK, Coke made outside the country is made with sugar, so they probably import the kosher stuff.
Play catch with the guy who throws chairs?

Rectifiers, the devices that turn AC into DC, AKA diodes, are cheap and easy. So there wouldn't be a problem running the system.

From the link given for CNC, their packages include some form of software.

Outsource to Canada. Cheap hydro power, and all the cold you could want.

There is the world cup for football (soccer), and it is world series time, so let us have a playoff format.
Nude mudwrestling anyone? Nethack? Darts? Beer Pong? Cricket on donkeys?
There isn't any reason not to have some fun while we are doing it.
http://ipv6.disa.mil/docs/State-of-IPv6-Final-7Feb 05.pdf Google found this, the US DOD review of IPv6 from Feb 2005.
Once the US military switches over, a lot of others will fall in behind them.
A port of Dtrace from Solaris to FreeBSD has been announced, and pf from OpenBSD has been ported to the others.
It is happening. Solaris is the new kid on the block, it will take time for the code to be grokked and made use of. Or vice versa.

Yes they do http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/info/faq.cfm#I2, the mentioned security enhancements are more like ACL's and policies.
And replace with lead lined drywall, used for sheilding from Xrays and others.
See http://www.radiationproducts.com/gypsum-board.htm for example, and other
similar products.
You may notice some problems with things like cell phone reception afterwards.
