Schools in the US did much better before the late 1800's.
The simple fact is that authority and responsibility should be pushed down as far as possible within an organization if you want it to be efficient and effective. States and counties would do a far better job if the counterproductive paper-pushing government-education leeches would just go away. Abolish the Public Education System.
Federal, State, and Local Government should not be in the education business at all. Let the parents teach their own children. If the Parents can't or won't then send the children to a private school.
You have never "observed" evolution. You may be able to observe the effects of natural selection in the sense that a population of white animals may fare better in an artic climate where the same population of white animals would soon be eaten in a more temperate climate.
Evolution (one species changing into another species) would take by any estimates millions of years.
To believe in evolution still takes just as much faith as it takes to believe in God.
We can't change where we came from. Even if you knew why life was started you'd what?
Very true, we can't change where we came from. If we knew why life was started we would A) go on sexing up the ladies or B) be forced to acknowledge God and all that goes with Him.
If your system is using the kernel subsytem cpuspeed then your cpu will run slow unless more speed is needed. This is done by design. See:
this for a good explaination of cpuspeed.
Web pages are generally written in HTML which is a markup language. It is just a way to present your content. Slashdot has annoying flash ads but I can normally scroll past them and see the content I'm looking for. That is because the information is oriented vertically such that scrolling is possible. Ads on the side of the content I'm interested in or that can't be moved off the visible screen are unacceptable and are always blocked.
Advertizers need to see the entire page as a single entity that will be viewed by the user and figure out how to work within those constraints.
Writing a good page requires good content and an artists eye for presentation.
You are absolutly right. I would expect that the banks are notifying customers via regular mail. I've always heard that a real bank will never communicate somthing like that via e-mail.
"the original promise of the Internet" was "to distribute all movies any time for a reasonable fee"? Cool. I never knew that. It sure is a good thing we have faster connections now. It never would have worked back when I was so proud of my connection using kermit on a 2.4k line.
I for one wecome our new CD Store Owner Overlords. This blacklist idea is the best! We could just put a bit on our new Federal ID cards to show who is blacklisted. We could keep them from buying or selling anything! Food, Gas,... Why stop at just music? While we are at it we could even use this opportunity to round up thier guns or forcibly steralize them so they can't reproduce!!!
Yes, Thats right. If my minor child wants some beer and I agree, I'll get some for him/her. If my minor child wants a gun and I agree, I'll buy one for him/her. It's the parent's responsibility. This only restricts access by the minor directly.
Yes, per capita numbers would be nice but even stratify it more by including number of people / income bracket.
Now there would be some meaningful numbers. After all I wouldn't expect some pennyless farmer in a rural area to have a DSL connection.

Do I need to finally buy a wide screen monitor?

There is no one here smarter than you. That was very elegantly said. Thank you.

I will download the internet and keep a personal copy.

Maybe God ought to invent 'brains'... Too late, He already did. Just some of them seem to work better than others.
No problem! Anyone can write errorless code if only they are careful.
#include <stdlib.h>
int main() {
printf ("Hello world\n")
}
No problem! Anyone can do it!

The theif is presented with this pop-up window:
Norton Firewall has detected that program - LoJack - is attempting to send information to the Internet.
Do you wish to allow it?

Debian is a very good distribution but really come on now. "If one can break FC4 that easily,"

Try this:
[user@debianbox ~]$ su -

[root@debianbox ~]$ rm -rf
See what happens. The lesson is, don't do anything as root unless you absolutely have to.

DOH!
Never mind.
