I would take the plane without the security rather than let them take more of our rights away. I don't think a full body visual scanner is a Reasonable precaution, mostly because a metal detector, and a bag scanner are good enough. If someone really wanted to take over a plane, they would, and it would be easy to do, even with all our security in place. What we are doing is letting ourselves be pushed around by the idea of "fear" instead of thinking rationally about the sitution and realizing that our rights are worth more than a few lives here and there.
If we can get a superconducting material to emit a pulse of gravitational radiation, would that then be able to be further refined to become an artificial gravity generator? That would make long distance space travel much easier to participate in, because we wouldn't have to worry about the effects of low/no gravity on the human body for extended periods of time.
I'm not entirely sure that everyone agrees on certain aspects of advanced science, therefore by your logic, because they are yet unproven, should not be discussed at all.
Not all Christian's believe the cracker is the actual body of christ. Many recognize (rightly so) that the cracker is a symbol.
Please do not lump all Christian beliefs into one general idea, when there are many different denominations (versions) of the religion.
As far as speaking in tongue's goes, it was originally the idea that God would give the person the ability to talk to someone of a different language background. For example, a guy that speaks only English would be able to speak Mandarin Chinese fluently, without ever having studied the language. Modern speaking in tongue's is just a bastardization of that, and there are even Christian's who recognize that many people that practice it, are doing it wrong.
That little tag on the end of Rob and Beth at Coney Island was very important actually. If you pay attention in the background of the shot, a "meteor" comes down streaking into the water behind them. That's a little bit about the origin of the "monster."
I'm pretty sure they fled to mexico, because that's where they could guarantee it would be warm enough, and it was for the irony of American's going to mexico to get away from their problems.
I believe the pattern disappears because the instrument must delay the photon somehow. That delay is enough to mess with the phase of the wave. The combining of the phases of the waves from the two slits is what causes the pattern. I bet that instead of the phasing pattern, it would appear to look more like a reverb of sound. (steals idea from sound waves, it's still waves, just much faster.)
So unless the speed of light in your detector, and the speed of light in the air are the same, the phases of the observed waves are going to be messed with.
This will come off as mean, but I would like to challenge your devoutness.
If you look at Old testament law then there are specific instances where it it ok to kill, ie on the battlefield or capital punishment.
However blanket killing or mistreatment of women does not line up with the bible I read. It says all have sinned. It treats everyone equally, be it men or women. Jesus treated women with respect. So I wouldn't say that the Bible says it is ok to kill women any more than it says it is ok to kill men, in certain circumstances. However the commandment is definitely do not murder.
And out of curiosity, how often do you read the bible?
Welcome to the approach to talking to anyone about anything you want to share. You meet them at somepoint, some common thing to talk about, and then you share what you wanted to say.
I don't see where it says rape the women, it says keep. Please show me a passage that says that, where it tells the men to actually force the women into sex.
Or it proves in some kind of twisted way that life needs to be designed. Or in this case, refactored, as it appears all they did was remove the portions of the DNA not needed for sustaining life.

You can turn off the are you sure boxes, especially when you are doing a lot of work that is going to require you to be constantly encountering them, and you can turn the, back on when you are done so that some punk doesn't change your stuff.

As a fellow RIT student, the facilities we have on our campus are definitely awesome, including the aforementioned fab. It's cool to walk through there and see processor dies mounted on the wall.
Too bad tuition keeps going up every year by a couple thousand. At least RIT's got good name recognition, so the jobs are easier to get.
Actually all three have e-mail address' associated with them. At least MSN -> Hotmail, AIM -> Aim.net, and Gmail is well Gmail. So all of them have e-mail address' availability. -Ed
I'm pretty sure the rationalization for the pope being a man is that Christ was a man, and is the head of the Spiritual church, and the pope, as head of the physical church, should also be a man.
Also, while all Catholics are Christians (roughly), not all Christian's are Catholics. There's also the Orthodox, and Protestant variations too, so remember that Catholics aren't all of Christinanity.
As a Christian, I'd like to say that Christianity set's us all as equal as sinners and equally deserving of judgment. While there are parts of the Bible that deal with social structures, and having the man as the head of those structures, Christianity doesn't preach the superiority of men or the inferiority of women.
I've used vista and XP side by side in my personal computers since well before vista RTM'd. Vista Beta 2 ran decently well on my desktop and I just upgraded it to Vista Business (MSDNAA liscense.) I am quite happy with Vista, it's stable, looks nicer than XP, and definitely boots much faster on my desktop than xp ever did. I don't know if it benchmarks faster than xp or not, but it certainly feels faster.
I have old hardware (Athlon XP 2800+, 1 gig ram, NForce2 mb with onboard audio.) As far as I can tell there are no Vista native drivers for the audio on nvidia's website. However, the old xp drivers work just fine for audio, so....maybe people should check to see if some of their XP drivers will work on their Vista boxes.
I also tested OS X Intel on my laptop when it came (from the days of Maxxuss and Jas two years ago) and while OS X is nice, some of the ways to do things just bothered me. Sometime's I'll boot into it just to mess around or test something, but I mostly enjoy living in the XP land on my laptop, and vista on the desktop.
There hass been war in the Middle East since thousands of years ago. Babylonian empire, Persian empire, Greeks, Romans, Arabs, etc. So I wouldn't necessarily blame the Britains for a lack of peace in a place that has been seeing war for 1000's of years.
I can say that penetration in the College aged bracket for Facebook is well about 80%, closer to 90%. I know of a few people without facebooks, but even they have given in to getting one.
One friend had a Facebook for a day, and found out through the site that his ex-girlfriend had broken up with him. He cancelled his account and didn't get a new one until he ended up with a new one.
Another friend doesn't yet have a Facebook account because she's been too busy to set one up. She knew it would be a distraction, so she didn't set it up during the school year, and she's been working full time this summer, so it hasn't been created yet.
These are the extent of the people I know from my college friends that are on facebook.
What I also have noticed is that only 200 out of ~500+ kids that I graduated high school with are on Facebook. I'm not entirely sure what that means, but definitely only the ones that were in the popular group (jocks/preps/athletes) and the honors students are the ones that are on facebook. That is definitely something to chew on and figure out why it is like that. I know that a lot of it has to do with the.edu e-mail address requirement, as those that didn't go to college didn't get one.
Another thing I have noticed is that many older students (+3 years from my age, 20) aren't nearly as prevelant as my group, and the ones after me. I think it also relates to a certain amount of tech-savvy that it seems my younger peers have. It also probably ties to the use of computers in education.
While TFA was a bit bad, and maybe the conclusions were weak (not entirely sure why the commentary about the soldiers and the officers was there), it did provide some thought provoking reading.
I happen to drive in such a way that I don't let that guy cut me off. I like to be very aware of what's coming up behind me, so I adjust myself accordingly. I tend to ride in the left lane as I do more passing than following due to the way my car handles. Once I'm up to speed, because it's a heavy car, it doesn't need much gas to maintain speed, so I ride the pedal lightly, and since it is heavier, it get's up hill's better than the smaller cars on the road, so I end up riding up to people without actually trying to.
Many times, when I do see that guy riding up on me. I just set the cruise control at whatever speed is fast enough to be moving well, but not fast enough to get a ticket, and just drive. I don't get stressed over that guy, I just don't let him have his way with me.

Yes, but extrapolate that to a 400 mile trip.
The trip takes 6 hours, 9 minutes, and 13.8 seconds at 65 miles per hour.
At 75 miles per hour it takes 5 hours 20 minutes. You have now saved 49 minutes, 13.8 seconds.
It's worth the extra speed, especially when that 49 minutes means beating the NYC rush hour, or sitting through 3 additional hours of traffic.
You are lucky that the dealership actually drove the car out for you. I don't think most business' would do something like that.
