I bought a used Lexmark laser printer once. It eventually found its way to a dumpster because I couldn't sell it in good faith. In the year that I had it, it successfully printed a grand total of one page. There was nothing that you could possibly do to convince the thing that the paper loaded in it was Letter and not Executive-size. Only once did I kick it hard enough to feed a sheet of Letter paper. The paper tray and everything were right, the printer was just a piece of crap.
I've since had a small Samsung laser printer that has done quite well, although I don't use it much since the toner is low and it's easier to print things on the color Lanier laser at work than to buy a new $80 toner cartridge. I highly recommend economical laser printers for the home rather than inkjets. The inkjet did its job - bridging the gap between dot matrix and laser until color laser became affordable for the home.
And the same to you - as I live in a land of ice and snow (mostly snow, but some lyrics are unavoidable) and have never been caught reading with no tracks in the snow leading to me - I wish I'd thought of that!
The question is whether she is so depressed as to justify long-term disability pay without working. Not simply whether she is depressed at all. But, while it is more likely that she is able to return to work given that she is able to interact healthily with others with a smile on her face, that's not the insurance provider's decision to make. Or, at least, it shouldn't be. But the greater the ties between government and insurance, the more power the insurance provider has to declare you healthy or to decide your needs are not covered, neither of these with any medical basis.
I actually don't know what it tastes like, because when it's potent enough to really taste it makes my tastebuds go numb on contact. But I don't know what I'm missing, so I'm okay with it. I do, though, appreciate your comment. May you breathe easily over a large mustard sandwich.
I actually have a complete mental block that keeps me from reading headlines involving the WHO as anything but the British rock band The Who. So then I end up with bizarre lyrics stuck in my head:
Swine flu may have peaked in the US
Talkin' 'bout my generation...
Considering that I have always had a low-level allergic reaction to cigarette smoke, my conclusion is supported by all empirical evidence available. I was actually experiencing substantially less stress at the time than in the months leading up to it, was living in a nicer place than previously, etc. I've never experienced that kind of reaction to other moves in the past, including when I moved from Arizona to Virginia without even having a place arranged to live in Virginia until I was halfway there, and the particular move in question was 3 miles across town to a friend's apartment so even the moving process was not stressful.
The best part of this is that I got modded down from a high of +3 down to 0 points, presumably because the mods don't like people who blame cigarette smoke for those problems that it actually does cause for other people. Evidently they forgot the principle that disagreeing with someone's statement should invite discussion, not down-mods.
I appreciate that you took the time to respond, and you deserve the Insightful mod for your response. But by far the most likely cause of my hives was prolonged exposure to an irritant that had previously caused only mild discomfort such as headaches because I had never spent that long a duration around it.
My solution, though, is just like that for my two other allergies - mustard and coconut. (I'm lucky in that I can snort a line of pollen, get stung by over 90 bees at once, etc. without reaction. I'm quite happy to be allergic to so few and easily avoidable things!) I simply don't immerse myself in things that harm me. Just like a peanut-allergic person shouldn't tour the Planters factory, I don't drink cocktails with Malibu or eat unknown mayonnaise which may contain mustard powder as an emulsifier, and I don't spend prolonged periods of time around third-hand smoke. I don't insist that people stop smoking in their own homes - I just ask that they be understanding of my not wanting to visit constantly.
The only time in my life I've had a histamine reaction to anything was when I sublet an apartment from a smoker. Within 2 weeks, I was covered in red specks and went to the doctor thinking I had flea bites (the tenant I sublet from also had a dog) or something. He laughed at me and told me to take Claritin. The only thing that had changed in my life compared to the past was the smoke absorbed in the walls and furniture.
If you're teaching people to code, point them to the guide How to Write Unmaintainable Code. It teaches this and other lessons and is a much more poignant way to get some of the points across than just giving a laundry list of not-to-dos.
The only reason to use any kind of machine-readable format for comments is to exploit vulnerabilities in the program that does the reading. Ideally, you can get the auto-documentation system to produce more lies on top of your own.
I believe Pres. Bush signed a law that prohibits insurance companies from utilizing genetic information to make decisions about coverage or premiums. However, (a) that only lasts until government-run healthcare decides that your clotting disorder gene is a drain on the system; and (b) insurance companies profit off of loopholes, so you can bet that this one won't take them long to get past.
/* * get_tail(node * list) * * This function destructively sorts the list with the tail element * as the new head of the list and the remaining elements * sorted according to their hamming distance from the tail element. */ node * get_tail(node * list) { /* The code here does nothing of the sort, and actually returns the * element with the highest-valued md5 hash, but only after freeing * the original list. */ }
Find/replace is dangerous in that situation, because it's possible that the correct spelling has been used for something else. I really despise bad spelling in variable and function names, and really in general in life, but you have to watch out for the case where honor and honour are truly different variables.
I live in BFE, North Dakota, and my parents live even more remotely. You can usually get Verizon or Alltel 3G service on their farm. I personally dislike Verizon, but their map is accurate. By contrast, you can't even get an SMS out through AT&T in many of the populated (that's a relative term) areas up here.
Fortunately for Verizon, AT&T's full coverage map sucks, too. If AT&T really believed in honest advertising, they would add a few words to their slogan: America's largest 3G network... because you can roam, at great expense, in Europe and we counted that.
My problem was that the show had too many subplots that were not, in fact, coherent. At the very least, the coherence developed too slowly for the show to remain on the air long enough to piece things together. If too many people miss the point, the show gets canceled. I find Heroes suffering from the same thing - lack of a clear direction for at least the past season and a half. Sarah Conner Chronicles had a lot of untapped potential, which should have been tapped early enough to keep it on the air. There were a few good characters, some good commentary-on-the-world, and some good plotlines, none of which came together in a sustainable way.
Hey, I personally really enjoyed the Summer Glau Fun Hour. I was sure that, at any minute, they would have a coherent plot, but that wasn't even a small part of my enjoyment.

No, Well It Wasn't Me is the shortstop!

I was thinking more a 5Y3. No switching and the only effect on character is a whole lot of sag.

Which human brain? I can simulate the rational thought processes of 90% of humans with one vacuum tube.
Therefore, cell phones on January 2, 2018 will have 100 million processor cores.
This essay says that it's good practice.
The second comment would be removed when the actual code is inserted to do what it says. I apologize that I was not clear about that.

I always write long comments that either have no relation to the surrounding code or tell outright lies about it.
I definitely avoid the trade magazines. Thanks for the pro tip - not surprising in the last.
