They must be a new type of shark given that the land has been relatively dry for the last five days or so. Either that, or Slashdot is posting things days after they occur... Nah - new type of shark is bound to be the explanation!
My first reaction when I saw this news was that it was delayed specifically for the Ubuntu LTS release. Probably just a coincidence though, but everybody likes a good conspiracy theory.
Well, we can have lateral symmetry of three....
( . )( . )( . )
Symmetrical on the middle nipple.
What makes it more likely to see 4 or 6 is that other mammals already do.
I do not think that anyone has pointed out that even with samples sizes that big, we can only figure out the genetic architecture of complex disease to an extent that makes it no better than family history for predicting disease. In fact, I hazard it will still be an order of magnitude worse.
Obviously, the researchers did not point that out to the health insurance companies paying for it because I am sure that they will still find many interesting things.
We do not know enough (or anything for the sceptics...) about the actual genes that control these traits, so I doubt this test is any more efficient than just examining the parents phenotype and predicting based on that. In fact, given they are stupid enough to think they can predict better, they probably are doing worse...
Many of these studies are side projects. The original data was probably collected for something more medically important, but it is quite easy to see how bald a person is while you are taking a blood sample.
They are the same species. The overall patterning is similar, but in NZ there is variation in the colour on the back, which can be black, grey or white. I don't think that variation is found in Australia.
I have to say the man has a point here. Rolling releases can be quite stable but every so often something will break and require you have a bit of knowledge about your system to fix it. Personally, I use Arch Linux and really enjoy using it, but I recommend other "stable" distros to people who want their computer to just work.
I have to agree with this whole heartedly. I read mainly horror with some fantasy when I was younger and have come to regret not delving into much classic literature. While some of the classic works will be incredibly dry to younger minds by today's standards, it is possible to find something of interest. The Hunchback of Notre Dame and the Phantom of the Opera are both reasonable.
Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea novels + short stories are a fairly easy read. Also each is quite short. Can't remember anything in it that might not be suitable for younger children offhand.
To put the performance of the machine in perspective, Thomas P. D'Agostino, the administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration, said that if all six billion people on earth used hand calculators and performed calculations 24 hours a day and seven days a week, it would take them 46 years to do what the Roadrunner can in one day."
That really put it in perspective for me. I normally judge a supercomputer by how many "all Earth people hand calculation years" it can do in a day...

So... is this just Super Paper Mario but with an additional dimension?

Look for GNotes. It is Tomboy ported to C++. That has annoyed to Tomboy developers....
Did anyone know it was still around?
Well, yes... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encarta
Yeah, these guys are heroes. The MPAA should organise a movie to be made about them.
There is PDFCreator: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator/
Exaile? Maybe not now Amarok2 is out.
Look at the top searches I noticed this:

Saved me having to do an image search...
I don't think these even work with python2.6...

Why celebrate on an arbitrary five yearly basis. Celebrating on prime numbers is far geekier.
Unsure...

And for a bit of bird watcher trivia... Australian magpies are in a completely different family than their European and American counterparts.

They are triband 850 or 900 /1800/1900
