Economists are snake oil salesmen anyway. Nobel prize winners routinely have 50% of their "theories" or models disproved by real life. How about a physicist that has one theory disproved? Nobel prize?
Technology has come a long way. I remember when they started piloting the rectal scanners. I'm a tall guy, but the readers were at about eye level and they never seemed to get an accurate scan. I hear they have made considerable progress though...
What a farce! I haven't been paying attention in the past, so someone please tell me when the Nobel Peace Prize plummeted to the status of being worth __less__ than a bucket of s(h|p)it.
This is an outright embarrassment!
Haha! I love it! Ala ThePirateBay:

"This gives a cause of action and jurisdiction to sue you in the UK."

"Please sue me in Japan instead. I've always wanted to visit Tokyo."
No shit! However, they are eerily similar in that they are both hype-machines... no I mean cause for global panic! Maybe many like me are tired of all of this super methane loaded B.S.!
-- "Scientists say this year's smaller hole... is due to natural variations in temperature and atmospheric dynamics... and is not indicative of a long-term trend."
Hmmm... Kinda like "Global Warming"?
Dunno, didn't read, but as a linux user I have 2 modes, command line and when I use a GUI, I want something that works and supplies me with a rich pleasurable environment.
To me Gnome is crap. Why use a GUI if you want simple with no frills, use the command line.
I actually like Ubuntu and the premise/release cycle etc., but I prefer Kunbuntu and feel that it should be Ubuntu.
For Linux to grow and make even more inroads into the Windows desktop/server environment, Linux must have a desktop distro that (at this point) is based on KDE, and a server distro that has a KDE lite (because it will be the same and familiar, low graphics that is consistent with the desktop but appeals to the server admin).

Sorry... You stupid chinc or pinko-commy, whatever...
I know nothing about China actually, I was just responding to the insane "Oh, and the one baby thing is only enforced in the big cities.". Specifically the "ENFORCED" part. Ohh, and maybe the "ONE BABY THING".
Ahhh, I bow to you o master of the googleness...
Evidenced by the page in your link, no one has any idea that there is anything other than "Fort Levenworth". That's why someone has to point it out on a web page.
Like the page that points out "When ever Alcatraz is mentioned, people always assume the prison. However we have many birds, some named after the island. That's what we are known for for God's sake... Oh wait, those are albatrose. Hmmm... K, nevermind
Ummm... I love Mandrake and use it at work and at home. But "* The company is making money (the company will be here for a long time)". Didn't they just nearly escape bunkruptcy? Something happened. IT was bad. They just made it out alive.

What? Any attempt I would make to "bribe my way out" of anything would end up in a much longer prison sentence. Leavenworth? Only criminals in the U.S. military go to Leavenworth. All of the other U.S. prisons offer steak and shrimp night, exercise gyms for the prisoners to bulk up, TV rooms and conjugal visits.
Yeah dude, read "The Decision to Use the Atomic Bomb and The Architecture of an American Myth", (toke, toke, gurgle, gurgle) then watch Fahrenheit 911! (toke, toke, gurgle, gurgle) Then you'll see all the facts and the real deal and all! (toke, toke, gurgle, gurgle) Awe man, can't you see it? They're doing it man... It's all there, you can read it and see it... (toke, toke, gurgle, gurgle)
If USA can attack another country "Just Like That"(tm), I would consider Chinese's censorship a godsend given it's only imposed within its own country....respect its laws; if you don't agree with its laws, go somewhere else. You always have a choice.
I neither hate it nor love it or Microsoft. The simple fact is that the review was crap. The methodology was lacking and the scientific process non-existant.
We've done several anti-virus and anti-spyware comparisons. What you do is simple:
- Load up a virtual machine with XP and take a snapshot
- then kill it with viruses or spyware
- run a tool and find what it catches/cleans
- revert to the snapshot and run the next tool
- do some simple math
Wow, in several years it has turned from "News for Nerds" to "News for socialists that think they have it better" and "News for those that have it better but for some reason are socialists".
For those posts that I have seen in the past several months, maybe longer, go surf the Michael Moore site , find some activist website or go bash the ditto heads at rush's site.
The point is that the guests don't expect that they have free reign over my house and that I would be perfectly justified in being concerned with where they go (my bedromm, dresser drawers, jewelry boxes, kids rooms, etc...)
So what? If you're a "guest" in the U.S. (read, you're not a U.S. citizen) then it's perfectly logical that tabs should be kept on you.
Do you host a large party at your house or have a salesman in for whatever reason and just let them wander where they will with no monitoring? No, they are "guests".

As for #1, you should add that the iPod will fail miserably! Lame...

Yep, aside from the all caps, I love the Debian versioning... Apache 1.0, PHP 3.0, KDE 2.0...

Ahh, O.K. Now that's different!
Byrd? No wait. He's a modern day Dem.

WOW! This has to be the best and truest post I have EVER read on slashdot! Great job!
Hmmm... Seems that the most free country in the world is also the most prosperous. Coincidence?

Here, here! Follow your own advice moron.

Why not? Because all of the Linux/SunOS and MacOs distros include one?
"Is this new"? No
