Month and menses are cognates. So, month doesn't derive from menses. They both derive from moon, which ultimately derives from a variation of the Indo-European root of the word "meal."
That's what the oed says anyway. I'll ask a linguist friend what he knows about this later.
I miss you more than Michael Bay missed the mark
when he made Pearl Harbor.
I miss you more than that movie missed the point,
and that's an awful lot girl.
And now, now you've gone away,
and all I'm trying to say
is Pearl Harbor sucked and I miss you.
I need you like Ben Affleck needs acting school,
he was terrible in that film.
I need you like Cuba Gooding needed a bigger part,
he's way better than Ben Affleck.
And now, all I can think about is your smile
and that shitty movie too.
Pearl Harbor sucked and I miss you.
Why does Micheal Bay get to making movies?
I guess Pearl Harbor sucked
just a little bit more than I miss you.
This is as good a post as any to make my standard PowerPC clarification post.
PowerPC is a standard developed jointly by IBM, Apple, and Motorola (now Freescale). It was written in the mid nineties and was based on and extended the instruction set for IBM's POWER series. A processor can is a PowerPC processor if it implements the PowerPC instruction set. So the Revolution will use a PPC chip. The Cell is a PPC chip. The XBox 360 will use a PPC chip. Every processor in the current POWER line is a PPC chip. G3 and G4, manufactured by Motorola/Freescale are PPC chips. I'm sure there are other PPC chips out there too.
why shouldn't we be able to use it for non profit work?
You can. Just don't distribute it without permission. Don't like it? Tough. That's the law.
I didn't see the GP give permission for you to redistribute his copyrighted content. But you did it anyway, presumably because this particular redistribution falls under fair use and not because you like breaking the law. Redistribution en masse -- of whole works -- can also be fair use. Libraries redistribute electronic works all the time.
The goal of both is to deliver a perfect copy of the actual event or situation.
No, it's not. In fact, you have this exactly backwards. If I play a simulation, I want to have fun, not do the mundane shit I'm trying to avoid doing IRL. And don't get me started on journalists.
And going through your own link, the first one says: "There was no significant difference in the following outcome measures between the active and sham acupuncture groups[:]"
It sure does. But that's not the end of the sentence. It continues:
...daily relief medication scores, blood eosinophil counts, serum IgE levels, and nasal eosinophil counts, except for the IgE levels before and 2 months after acupuncture in the sham acupuncture group.
which is to say that none of those mechanisms are responsible for the conclusion:
CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that active acupuncture was more effective than sham acupuncture in decreasing the symptom scores for persistent allergic rhinitis and increasing the symptom-free days. No serious adverse effect was identified. A large-scale study is required to confirm the safety of acupuncture for children.
My point was that it is false to state that there aren't any double blind studies regarding acupuncture's efficacy. There is a sizable body of literature on the topic that is just ignored by the likes of you because it doesn't fit your preconceptions. The fact that you read through the link I suggested and failed to pick up on the fact that the study contradicts you suggests that you were just data mining the text, looking to support your own point. That's not science. That's not even wrong.
Sorry, your reply is beneath my current threshold, Mr. AC HR guy. There's nothing "leet" about me "antway." I'm just a mathematician with a sense of humor. Since you appear interested in hiring me, why don't you send an e-mail to alex.solla@reed.edu, my professional e-mail address?
...close to 100 searches were conducted globally (U.S., Canada, Israel, France, Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, United Kingdom, Germany, Portugal, and Australia) within a 24-hour period, resulting in the identification of 120 individuals who are likely to be pursued by the U.S. Department of Justice.
How is the USDOJ going to persue people in other countries? Extradition sounds too severe for bootlegging. Isn't this something each foreign law enforcement agency should deal with?
The people at Quackwatch, the Amazing Randi, etc., have a vested interest in denying the efficacy of alternative medicines. Not for economic reasons, but because it feeds their egos. It makes them feel smarter than the unwashed masses who buy into all that "mumbo jumbo."
Well, I'll tell you what -- you're denying the truth of the study presented in TFA with no evidence to support the claim that it was performed incorrectly or in bad faith. That is not science. It's not smart. You're rejecting it out of hand because you don't like the buzzwords they used. Your link to another, unrelated metastudy has no bearing on the truth of this study, and only supports the claim that you're rejecting this study out of hand. (Hint: The name given to the process by which walking on cobblestones is healthy doesn't matter, even if it is reflexology or just plain old podiatry)
Sure there have been lots of "studies" done on acupuncture claiming that it Really Works, however none of which were appropriate in controlling placebo and other factors such as blinding.
That's just bullshit. You reject the hypothesis because of an irrational belief in your own rationality, and thus must reject any experiment that contradicts you out of hand. That's not science, it's religion.
The GP wasn't demanding proof. He was rejecting a hypothesis with no evidence in either direction, just because it had bad buzzwords. That's not science. It's prejudicial and very unscientific.
I personally think that Doom 2 had far better gameplay than any id game after it. If you ran forward and strafed left or right at the same time, you'd move at 90 scale miles an hour. You could even out run rockets. It was completely unrealistic, but it made the gameplay very intense. Deathmatch was terrific because of this (especially in tiny maps like dwango5), but even the single player game had tremendous replay value. Running into traps is unavoidable when you're going 90 miles an hour.
Imagine my surprise when I could only run at 12 or so miles an hour in Quake.:-(
Half Life picked up on this unrealistically fast model, justifying it with the HEV suits. And that game had great gameplay (and sales) too.
Are you sure there's actually a mess? Since your mom was a librarian, it seems to me that she would know how to organize this information. Go through it and make sure the information isn't structured before you start messing around.
You might also want to ask the guys from rotten.com if they'll let you see the code behind the nndb.
This might only help of you play the guitar or piano. I've found that the best way to learn those useful fragments is to just sit down for a minute or two and figure out the smoothest way to move your fingers, so you're almost playing an arpeggio. I can get well past 160 wpm when I'm warmed up and have practiced a bit.

The problem aalib solves is very computationally intensive. It wouldn't surprise me if it were NP complete.
That's what the oed says anyway. I'll ask a linguist friend what he knows about this later.
Huh? There's plenty of bright people in Germany. ;-)
Or you could measure theentropy and apply E = MC^2 to get a mass.
Shouldn't this be "do use positives"?

Having a public website is implicitly allowing anyone to read/view what you've made available.
But NOT to redistribute it.
But redistribution can be a fair use of copyrighted materials too, such as in libraries or archives.
No it's not, asshole.
