While Ferrari and Bugatti may be out there the Maserati entry level is comparable with the high end of Jaguar, but my point is $170 is still a hell of a lot for the budget minded consumer, substantial for the budgeting consumer, and considerable for the consumer with a flexible budget.
Still bullshit. By using your useless relative scale a new Jaguar is cheap, because it is way less than a Ferrari, Maserati, or Bugatti. (Dang it, I used a car analogy; enter moderation limbo).
When I first started using computers you were basically told to not even look at it if it was running, and NEVER touch any cords while running. Just stare at your green on black screen (or later on, your four simultaneous color "Low-Radiation!" screen).
Within the first half hour of news coverage, the media was producing a steady drumbeat of "Osama bin Laden... al Qaeda... Osama bin Laden... al Qaeda... ".
Can you back this up? I seem to remember it being a few days afterwards and there was still nothing conclusive in the media. Have a youtube or torrent link of video demonstrating how soon the al Qaeda connection was established?
I found the website of his lab, and an article on him on wikipedia, but none have obvious links to papers. If you could link to a paper or article or at least the journal it is in I would be grateful.
I am familiar with the pre-RNA hypothesis, but think it falls just as flat as the abiogenesis theories it is trying to replace. Particularly I have seen nothing explaining the gap between RNA molecules and reproducing cells. Not exactly a trivial step(s).
What exactly are the mountains of proof regarding the origin of the universe? I would most thoroughly enjoy reading about what caused the big bang, how the initial conditions came to be, and then fast forward to how living matter came into existence from non-living matter (probable conjecture will even do, as long as it has plenty of relevant research cited). This isn't evolution we are talking about (and even if it were, creation is not necessarily against evolution, kind of like how not all rectangles are squares).
There's no use on having a formula 1 race car if you're only allowed to do 10 laps a month. On a track filled with mandatory diversions.
Sure there is. I only need to go to stop on the other side of the store once or twice a week, but when I have to go there I want it to take the minimal amount of time possible (because obviously my time is very valuable - I drive a formula 1 race car for god's sake).
I'm not saying we shouldn't discuss it, I was mainly trying to say something along the lines of "voting on a single issue that isn't really relevant to the job at hand is stupid". The parent was saying because of this one issue (which she would be unlikely to effect anything regarding it in the office of VP, unless there was a tie in the senate) that no one should even consider her.
And this is why the republicans are begging the dems to go after this point, their response: if McCain dies she is just as qualified as Obama, and has at least the same ability to recruit experienced people to aid her. There is no group in the world better at politics than the republicans (they shouldn't have a chance in this election, but are in a slight lead in some polls). But as far as I'm concerned the republicans and democrats are just different sides of the same coin: Nader/Gonzalez '08.
Except that Palin isn't on the top of the ticket. Her foreign experience is only an issue if McCain dies. Republicans are currently trying to bait this issue (judging from listening to a couple of their radio mouthpieces this morning) knowing that people care about the top of the ticket, not the VPs.
Why is it a bad word choice? I think asked would be a bad choice, as I assume in his employer/employee relationship there was no asking taking place. "Tasked" is in my dictionary, and I don't see any reason to exclude it from the English language.
I don't think placing him in NJ would be a problem in trial. Seriously, without a credit/check transaction it is almost impossible to place someone at a location several years ago - and if your mailing anthrax and a competent scientist I think you would be smart enough not to write checks or use your plastic when you go on your mailing trip. This would be like the body of Nina Rieser, a weakness but not a showstopper for the prosicution.
I think most "organic" farms attempt to be sustainable, but your post suggests that may not be the case
This is only anecdotal, but I have been around a lot of farms in my life (mainly in the midwest, but also abroad). I have only been to one "organic" farm that tried to be sustainable (not saying others weren't, but not because of concerted effort), and it was run by students at a university. I've been to dozens that are farmers trying to get the highest yields possible while trying to pay the lowest price - and they know they can get a premium if they can call it organic (in other words, they are not concerned with sustainability at all, they are concerned with paying off the tractor, mortgage, equipment maintenance and buying seed/supplies for the next season).
My father is in agribusiness (selling both artificial and organic fertilizers), and I am afraid I have some bad news for you. Organic farming does use fertilizers, and pesticides. However organic farming uses organic fertilizers and organic pesticides. The problem is organic does not equal safer (for example, anthrax occurs naturally, and nicotine is a decent pesticide). So the question becomes would you rather have Sulphate potassium oxide and potash running into your water table, or nicotine and pyrethrins (also note that most organic pesticides are indiscriminate in the insects they kill, and many have devastating effects when applied near honey bee colonies)?
Hence the "I would even say". The Ma Bell that used to be is not the AT&T of today, and that is what I think matters in this thread other posters have pointed this out better than I could state). However, I almost typed Edison Electret, which would have been a mistake as that merged to become part of what is now G.E.: which I believe is still the worlds biggest corporation.
That would work, unless they want to try getting out of the hardware market again. I'm not saying it is a good idea, I'm not saying they would ever do it, but as a corporation it is always in the best interest to have as many options on the table as possible. This way they could pull out and have a program where they could distribute tags (e.g. Vista-Capable, Intel Inside) or allow a printed TM (e.g. DVD, CD-ROM, FCC, etc) and sell OS-X for certified devices.
You know that is not the intention. That is the only way they can phrase their intention, due to the fact they don't manufacture their own computers - and don't want to be tied into a single manufacturer (especially since other lines from that manufacturer may qualify). Remember, just like legislation, when before a judge intent (especially when intent can be fairly easily surmised) is an issue - the verdict isn't necessarily on the letter of the law: that is the reason we have judges and juries.
Scrap is not the greatest index for aluminum. Steel price is completely driven by scrap (as it is the primary ingredient in new steel), while this is not the case for aluminum (disclosure: I work for a metal supplier).

Do you not remember seeing the smuggled video of the rocket launch gone bad? Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGoU1GgkrKg Also covered by CNN here: http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9603/china_rocket/
Does no one remember the haikus of BeOS?

Yes, because we all know that the vice-president controls the curriculum for every public school...
Now I'm tempted. Is there a way to upgrade the basic version (paying less than $100) to put a harddrive in? And the basic play GTA4 without a HD?

Eh, they seem to be doing better than Standard Oil, Carnegie Steel, and I would even say Ma Bell.

That would be pretty funny to see every other player throwing their gun right as they run by an image. If well placed, that could be devastating.
