From reading the comments here I'm wondering if it's just that they simply lack the awareness of how better they would be doing if they were not multi-tasking. There have been a lot of comments about people who feel physically bad when they try to multi-task. Perhaps the self-reported "good multitaskers" simply lack that sensation and the "bad multitaskers" work hard to get back to single-tasking due to the discomfort.
Those tests did seem pretty bad though. I guess they did adequately test the hypotheses, but they assumed that there was something to the self-reported "good multitaskers". They should have tried to objectively figure out who is a genuinely good multi-tasker before trying to figure out what makes them good. I think they got the cart before the horse there.
I guess it's my turn to state that it may have a pattern without repeating or terminating. We know it doesn't repeat or terminate, we aren't sure about the possibility of a pattern.
I'd go with injecting 'evil' seeds where you want the second head to grow and force feeding them high concentrate evil to grow the evil seed faster. You could also go with an evil IV, but you get bonus evil points going the force feeding route.
I'm not savvy to the inner workings of bind, but I think it would be easiest to find out what they return instead of NX and correct it that way. You would be unable to intentionally visit their little ad page, which isn't really a problem. Depending on their setup I suppose you might lose access to other parts of their site, which could be a problem.
The policy makers do provide a mandate for NASA. The problem is that the policy makers change every 4 years or so. The policy and budget tends to change with them. What NASA really needs is a reasonably generous budget guaranteed for at least 20 years and without any of the use it or lose it problems that federal budgets usually have so they can save up for bigger missions. Less overall interference from Congress would help as well, although some fiscal monitoring is appropriate. They need stability.
You can always create a root certificate of your own and import it into firefox. It's actually not that hard. Of course it may not always be easy to extract, sign and re-load the certificates as many vendors don't make that easy so you'll use their services instead.
It's certainly not as easy as it should be, but if you control the server and the clients you can absolutely make them trust each other.
It certainly seems like it would work just fine to run it on straight salt instead of saltwater though, so the equations still mostly work. The water in saltwater is just serving as a handy salt transport mechanism. I can't imagine a practical application for running it on pure salt, although I suppose some survivalists might be a fan of it for a home generator. It's certainly easier to store salt than most typical fuels.
I consider the MS Trackball Explorer to be the king of trackballs. Unfortunately they don't make them anymore and they aren't cheap on E-bay (or amazon used as you can see in the link). I absolutely love mine. The Logitech Cordless Optical Trackman is probably the closest to it that is currently manufactured, although with trackballs being cordless isn't nearly that important.
For Pen & Paper RPG's I always liked RoleMaster's approach. The core is skill point based. You gain a certain number of skill points every level (usually around 50-70 points). Your class defined how many points each skill cost you to raise, and most classes could raise some skills multiple ranks per level (at higher cost). Even hit points and power points/mana were gained by skills (and stats). You had several skills that were very easy to raise, but anybody could learn anything, and indeed you could expect a high level fighter to have picked up an occasional spell or two along the way. I haven't checked out HARP, but it's the same company and I expect it uses a similar system.
If he meant real Windows NT 4.0 (or earlier) than the thumb drive isn't an issue. NT doesn't have support for them without quite a bit of work. It's an ugly solution, but given the requirements and resources available it works. .
I would hope they are looking for a more secure long term solution though. At the very least it is possible to manually remove almost any piece of malware if you are willing to dig deep enough. It sure isn't easy though, and doing it without interrupting service is even harder.
Please quit FUDding on NP education. The requirements vary by state, but most NPs are going to have a Masters degree (about 6 years) plus some clinical experience (varies). I have yet to meet an NP that wasn't pleasant to deal with and seemed to actually be doing the job because they enjoyed it and wanted to be in healthcare. I have met several doctors who were just trying to make heaps of money (and I've met several doctors who were kind, generous and awesome people as well). For any common problem a NP is generally going to be just as capable as a MD or DO, and oftentimes more capable as they are often more "hands on" than a doctor. There are times when a doctor is what is needed, but those are really very uncommon, and any NP will get the doctor when needed.
For the past several months I've been calling SSDs the single most noticeable upgrade you can do to your computer. Whether desktop or laptop, stick a good SSD in there and you'll notice the difference
Check the benchmarks there. They compare the Intel X-25 it to the VelociRaptor and it runs easily noticeable circles around it.
A SSD is an upgrade that everyone will absolutely notice the improvement on. It seems at least as good as adding RAM to an old computer (which is in some ways exactly what you are doing), except you get the improvement no matter how new or old your PC is.
I don't have one yet due to budget contraints, but as soon as I can afford one I'm getting it. Given the performance increases they offer, on a new computer build I'd jump to a SSD before I'd move to a Core i7 in most cases. The Core i7 is awesome, but not often noticeable to the user. The SSD is noticeable in all cases. Of course, if you can afford a SSD you can hopefully afford the i7 as well.
You're confusing the cable companies (service providers) with the cable channels (content providers). Disney/espn and the rest are trying to do to the cable companies internet services the same things they successfully did with their cable services. The "bad guys" in both situations are the content providers (not that the service providers aren't evil as well). The service providers do try to fight this a little.
With the move to digital it's possible the service providers will get more open towards the idea of ala-carte since it won't be as difficult for them to provide it. The channels will fight it forever though. It could get interesting.
If you buy the phone outright you can take it to any service provider who uses the same technology (GSM or CDMA) and they can set you up. With GSM you can swap the SIM card around if the phones are unlocked, which they should be if you buy them outright.
You're building a strawman yourself as well in saying they turned away patients for billing reasons. EMRs do make billing easier, and tons of Hospital paperwork is just for billing (and CYA) purposes, but they also make treatment easier and safer, and especially in the ER. If they knew that other hospitals extremely close by had capacity then this was the right thing for them to do for their patients and it cost them money to turn away those patients. It's probable (though not guaranteed) that they checked with the other hospitals before diverting to make sure they could take them. Even when hospitals are in direct competition with each other, the Emergency Rooms usually work together to ensure that one does not get overwhelmed.
If you are going to track it then you are correct in that it does need to send a signal, it's just that the signal doesn't go back via the GPS satellite. It does need to go out somehow though. In most cases it's probably going to be a cell phone operating on the cell network. Keep in mind many of the cell trackers aren't going to be using GPS, they are going to be tracking it based on cell towers, which I don't think is as accurate as GPS and is useless in the unlikely event that you get completely out of range. I'm sure there are other options out there as well.
I'd be happy with a plain cell phone that supports locale, although that does require GPS. Hell, I'm annoyed that my current phone hard codes speed dial #1 to voicemail. I'm probably not exactly representative of most people though, but I hope there are enough like me to create some demand for this.
Absolutely. In most cases it's far easier to install RAM than to figure out which RAM you need to buy. The friend in this instance is definitely asking for help with the most challenging part of the problem.

In addition to the above comments noting that it is just tied to your account, not your PC, note that the GOO system allows you to deactivate a game on your account and transfer it to another. 1 minute spent googling "transfer stardock games" would have found this out for you. Try doing a little research next time your tempted to make assumptions about how something works that you have no knowledge of.

So Gomez Adams was right! You need meetings dedicated to "old business" and meetings dedicated to "new business". And this is Old Business!
You're both right. You eliminate some possibilities and create others. Judging which is best is the truly hard part.
If you buy the phone outright you can take it to any service provider who uses the same technology (GSM or CDMA) and they can set you up. With GSM you can swap the SIM card around if the phones are unlocked, which they should be if you buy them outright.

There's an idea. You can get your health screening along with your security screening. Two for the price of one!
