Instead of forcing consumers to pay, they need a viral network that will distribute their news to people in as many ways as they can possibly connect, while adding in the advertisements in just like they do on radio or TV. I imagine it could work something like the Cybus Earbuds you see in the BBC Science Fiction show "Doctor Who":D
Now that might scare a few people, but it is not meant to be, however, with Cell Phone use nearly ubiquitous in some parts of the world, maybe that's where news needs to be targetting instead of trying to play catch up, they might actually be able to 'innovate' and find a way to deliver news to readers in a way that gets their advertisers much better coverage.
The Capital "CHarleston" Is not that close to DC. And while there are some important Federal, and Government COmputer systems in WV, they are not necessarily at the state house. Not sure why anyone would think that they are.
Or perhaps its heald in place by a gravimetric device, like the one that sort of went, boom when the Doctor and Rose showed up and encountered 'the beast';)
That's a rather ignorant way of putting things. Even in this era of AJAX and Web 2.0, Flash is still one of the preferred technologies for delivering learning content. In flash at least you don't have to worry as much about browser incompatibilities or that it may display so recklessly different in another player. I have worked on a similar product and our player which takes advantage of flash does not have a separate website for each course. So I think your argument is just coming off badly. Just because it can be accessed via a web browser doesn't make it a web page. Heck you can put TXT or XML files up online and view them with a browser, doesn't make them web sites.
Car's aren't autonomous typically they are controlled by human beings. Also I can think of multiple other vehicles with 4 wheels that are powered that are not Cars. Things like Trucks, 4-wheelers, Golf Carts, various Construction apparatus. Heck my lawn mower or vaccum cleaner has a motor and four wheels but I don't call it a car.
The bottom line is just because content is delivered via Flash (through a Web Plugin) does not make it a 'web page'. The LMS is the web page, the flash plugin is most likely a player, no different than say You tube, or windows media. The content could just as easily be played offline through flash most likely, just in this case it is delivered by online means doesn't make the course itself a website. Some LMS's don't give specific URIs anyways. b
Actually, I'm under 40 and we HAD a DVR for a few months and then when oil and heating costs went through the roof I had to cut it out. I haven't gotten it back, but MAN do I miss it.
We had a project in a class on the Motorola 68K Processor using assembly to build a circuit to represent a particular lighting intersection. We then had to write the code for the timings or for the switches for when new cars arrived. Everything was going well, we had a very elegant piece of code and we tested it in a simulator and it seemed to work fine, but the last week or so when it came time to build everything and demonstrated it, the thing was just not working.
We ended up tearing it down to the drivers for the lights and testing each one individual to verify they were good, and after three weeks of work I narrowed it down to a section of counter code that was not incrementing. I looked at that code for hours, and the lab tech didn't know why it wasn't working either. Then on a whim I grabbed somebody's board with the 68K on it and switched it with ours, and the thing worked. Turned out several of the boards had been fried by some group earlier in the week we were beginning to test it. Man was I mad, We didn't have the code from before we scrapped it down to simple timers, and even if we did, there wasn't time to build the circuit, so we built it as quickly as we could doing the bare bones and passed. Man were we pissed though.
I fail to see what captialism has anything at all to do with Fundamental Christianity. Fundamentalism is at its core a movement that looks at scripture and interprets it literally. Having come from that background, I fail to see how capitalism has in any way been driven sideways by the movement. They are more concerned about the principles of separation in my experience than that. My main argument with the movement is many have become hyper-literalists that take the entire bible as literal even when it is so blatantly obvious that it is hyperbole or symbolic in some fashion.
Actually, if you want to point blame on the prosperity gospel (which is what you seem to Actually have issue with.) that's mostly the main line churches of certain denominations that preach that. None of the Fundamentalist churches I visited preached anything like what you are suggesting.
When I was in HS I remember visiting the WVU Chemical Engineering Lab and they had this cauldron if you will of sand that when they pumped air into it the sand liquefied in essence and felt/moved like water, yet it wasn't wet. I wonder if this is a similar phenomenom.
The first such team i was on, was with three Grad students, one dropped right away, the other two didn't communicate with me then dropped the course leaving me high and dry. This happened in two engineering labs too, so I ended up not wanting a partner in one lab because I was tired of having to hold the bag for someone else's irresponsibility. It made life much more difficult though:/
The last company I worked for at one point contracted some indian contractors for work. I still to this day cannot understand why their C++ code needed gotos and labels in this one function. What was worse, as a young first year developer, I could not understand why they had done thus. Of course since my job then wasn't to change the code, just to port it and test it. I had to leave it be. I'm still wowed by that one LOL.
I agree. When I was exit interviewed my final semester at the University, my biggest complaint was I didn't feel like I had anything that set me apart from other graduates based on course work. Nothing else indicated an area where I might perhaps be stronger and better suited. There was of course one exception and that was database work I had learned on the side through a work study position. That was the primary thing that I felt made me different, and at that point I wasn't sure I wanted to do database work for a living given I hadn't been able to fit the Oracle course into my schedule.
The one area that I've discovered was my true strength is that I'm a book learner. I can read documentation and understand it really quickly, and it has enabled me to pick up new technologies faster then some of my colleagues. The question is how do you talk about a skill like that on a resume or interview?
Same here, I've never heard of a "God Class" before either, although, I could probably hazard a guess that it would be a class that has so many capabilities and functions, that it really deals with things that should be abstracted to other classes. At least that's the guess i would take. Clearly their are huge pitfalls to such things.
Actually, I found Cars to be a great movie. I missed it when it came out because I didn't have cable at the time to see the adverstising, but my family loves the movie, and my son loves the toys. You are wrong though, I don't think they are all injected molded plastic, some of them are diecast. Those are the ones my son likes anyways
In any case, I didn't see Monster's Inc, so not sure about a sequel, but I can see Toy Story, and Cars getting sequels, and I have really been craving an "Incredibles" sequel for a very long time.
Interesting. Maybe they just don't carry them around here then, because I haven't seen any, but yeah. I've only got a few fixtures that they seem to work long term in. They do help lower electricity costs some, but then I've also been shutting the thermostat off during the day and night when i can too.
In principle I am for the idea of reducing the power needed to light our homes, but i wish they'd last longer in more fixtures.
I have still yet to get the reported 3 years use out of any CFL in any lighting I've used in my house. heck I don't think I've had one yet last a full year let alone 4 or 5 months. If this continues I'll be back to using incandescent because the marginal change in power requirements for CFLs (particularly in the winter months) doesn't seem to offset the costs, especially since of our fixtures can't use CFLs anyways. (3 way lamps anyone?) Although this second batch I tried seem to be lasting a bit longer on the whole, I still lost three CFLs within the first two or three weeks.
I agree here. Frankly I find integrating Subversion into VS isn't all its cracked up to be anyways. I'd rather track that information elsewhere, through explorer for example.
I agree, I use eclipse for my tasks that do no require using a MS Based IDE, although I disagree with the Author of the OP. The express versions of Visual C++, C#, etc. are not Visual Studio, they are in essence stand alone compilers, and hence do not have close to the same functionality some other freeware IDEs might provide. Visual Studio is they version you have to buy, that connects so many of the disparate resources into one.
I tried the express versions, and they are okay for things like Forms applications or console applications, but if you are doing ASP.Net, you need to have multiple installs or put the code in the.aspx page (which I don't agree with, personally). Frankly, it was too much of a headache to develop with the express versions for anything I'd want to show the versions to the world.
I like Visual Studio as a package, but the express versions really are not intended to build anything overly large, or for anything but perhaps learning the language constructs, this of course my opinion.
The result is that I use Visual Studio at work, where I have a license, and for stuff I do at home off the company dime I use eclipse for my IDE needs, and I have been very satisfied with it to date. It may not have quite as many bell's and whistles as Visual Studio, but it does provide some measure of Syntax Highlighting, which to me is a necessity if you want to code anything quickly. It makes debugging a lot simpler too.
When I was at my University we were of the school, that we'd write it in notepad, ftp it to the Solaris server, then compile and run it. Honestly, After seeing how easy an IDE is to use, and how much headache it can save, I recommend them for those who are not already working in a native environment (Such as with VI on some WorkStation.)
Uh, they are Kid's they are supposed to have a lot of youthful energy and pay little attention. That's what discipline and correction are for. Attention is something you have to be taught it is not a trait that you are born with.
OMF Rocked. Later when they released the old version to build up the later version they released (with better graphics and everything), I enjoyed playing through it repeatedly. (that to me is what makes a game good, is it still fun to replay over and over again.) Funny though that my favorite bot/WAR was in the Demo. (The Thorn:D)
Space: Above and Beyond suffered from being on Sunday nights at a bad time as I recall. I caught it on re-runs on Sci fi a few years ago and I loved it, but the time they showed it was just not workable for me. Maybe it matters less if you have a DVR or TIVO these days.
On a side note, I have been noticing more and more lately that FOX produced shows are not always exclusively on Fox and so forth. Has it always been this way? I guess it has, and I wonder why.

What do you guys think?

I think Crusade would have been better if it had lasted a bit longer. With mostly new characters it can take time to find your footing.
