Sorry that is already covered in my "flexible covering for the lower body" patent, which is part of a larger patent war-chest that includes "flexible covering for the upper body", "flexible covering for head", and ""inflexible covering for the head".
I once interviewed with a company that made rubber. Yes, rubber. Any kind of rubber whatzit. I walked in thinking "what am I doing here?" and walked out thinking "rubber is fucking cool!" I didn't get the job, though.
I think we can all think of applications here where we would not want the rubber to split. Most of us are less likely to go round the corner for a
cheap "used and refurbished" one too.

I gave up on "lost", it seemed to be a meandering plot with hints but no resolutions. I am about to give up on "flash forward" for the same reason.
Parties in opposition frequently seem to criticise what the government does for the sake of it. Is this just another case of "now its business as usual" or did they really believe in what they were saying and ensure that legislation brought in to counter terrorism isn't used randomly against British citizens.
I read somewhere that Concorde could only charge the premium because there were so few of them. Evidently to get the mass transport business you could only charge a 15% premium for supersonic flight.
I don't know whether I was just "lucky" but visiting West Texas a few years ago I heard two sonic booms. The first was very high up and muffled, I thought it was thunder, it was a local that told me that they have flights from Fort Davis and some test flights from a Lockheed factory. The second was lower and louder and I saw the plane shoot off into the distance, I didn't need anyone to tell me what it was.
Booms aren't just loud, they also smash Windows and American law-makers care; the FAA specifically bans not sonic booms, but *all* supersonic flight.
I don't know about the FAA, but I've heard tons of sonic booms from F-16s, and they fly supersonic here all the time. I live in a large metro area near an F-16 training base.
Yes, but your textbooks brought you up with the idea that sonic booms are good for you and what what God intended.
True. Page two of my Texas international politics manual says that if you are not with us you are against us. Therefore everyone who is not American is anti-American.
Interesting idea, but it seems to put the onus and cost on California's school board. I'm not American but I was under the impression that they are not currently awash with money. Would it be better to put the onus on publishers tending for California's schools? Maybe also they should be required to publish an addendum if any of this revisionist history fond its way into the books.
You are absolutely correct, if you go into a store and steal a DVD it is exactly the same as any other theft. On the other hand downloading copyright material is not theft. It is copyright infringement. You have not deprived anyone of the original. It seems that you have succumbed to the propaganda of that trailer, which if you watch carefully avoids saying that illegal copying or downloading is theft because they know it is wrong. It is the old association trick:
You wouldn't steal a bag
You wouldn't steal a car
Downloading videos is piracy
Piracy is against the law
If it really guarantees no infection with malware, then it cannot be update-able or extendible. All it is suggesting is that the hypervisor cannot be altered from within a client operating system. I don't think that this gives you anything that you don't already get with a user-mode virtualisation like virtual box, where the host's system will write-protect pages.

I'm English you insensitive clod! My bag of chips is hot, greasy and with no writing on it.
Or it could just be proof of the power of the gay dollar.
SPAM coming from his ass? Literally?
Yuck,
is that where they get it from?
Cheking out Chris Goldfinger's credentials this will be big, they will be rocking as far away as the Caribbean.
Seriously? A man named Goldfinger is threatening the Pacific Northwest with tidal waves and earthquakes?
Well, at least MI5 will save us...
Don't worry. We have an agent working on it. I'm sure that whatever the magnitude of the earthquake he'll be shaken but not stirred.

People who do this crap of stealing people's accounts or identities should be shot.
How do we identify them?
Why not ask the RIAA. They identify lots of copyright infringers. What could possibly go wrong.

Well, at least they're only talking about cutting off broadband access.
You haven't heard the breaking news then. The RIAA have just hired Lorena Bobbitt as an enforcement strategy adviser.
The only nonintuitive thing is the name "bucket"
That's what kdawson said when he read the api spec. Or was it fuck-it?
What is the difference between hacking the Pentagon because you believe in aliens and hacking the Pentagon because you believe in Allah?
Belief in aliens is less farfetched

However in theory at extreme hypersonic speeds cavitation will occur, reducing drag.

If I were the POTUS I would offer them back to Mexico. Mind you if I were the Mexican president I'd turn the offer down.

Which features are missing, exactly?
How about procedural audio? Say I want to write a speech synthesizer in JavaScript. How do I send the samples to the speaker?
I'll get right on to it once I've finished writing my operation system in COBOL and device drivers in LISP
