Maybe the Plagarism guy needs to make a joint venture with those people who you pay to be good references, with answering services and everything.
Then you go to work for one of those Chinese companies that pays you just to show up and look like a foreigner to show how International they are.

Well the claim its your own work, when its the work of somewone else is where its plagarism.
If you're desperate enough to use a service like this, how likely are you to know or care if your work for hire ghost writer is copying from some other PHD candidate's paper that he sold after he graduated?

Maybe the comment could be worth 5 points, but at 48 hours turnaround time, you'd never get past a +2 informative even over a long weekend.
But this unsecured link is legal everywhere but France, so the French could not shut down a link in Belgium, Spain, the UK, or anywhere else nearby that wants to host one.
I had a job in 2003 where one of the first things I was asked to do was pull hard drives out of 2 dozen Emachines mini towers with burst caps.
Bad Caps were all over the industry at the time.
I still recommend Dell for Desktops to folks asking for a computer + support recommendation that don't want to build their own. I've had way worse experience from eMachines, Gateway, HP/Compaq, to consider anything they make.
This is even after the company I worked for from 2003-2006 replaced Dozens of of Latitude 600s, over and over again, motherboard replacements, depot shipments, these things would not stay right until they started shipping us Inspiron 1100s back. I'm writing this from a Latitude 620 that isn't half bad.
For my last 2 personal machines I've chosen Abit boards with the Solid State caps, and been happy as a clam. The first one didn't die, I just gave it to my wife, 3.06 GHz Hyperthreading P4 with 2GB ram is fine for email and web browsing;) Personal Laptops I get used IBM Thinkpads, not Lenovos.
You kid, but NASA had plans for inhabiting Lava Tubes on the Moon, to shield astronauts from Radiation, you'd think Lava tubes on Mars would offer similar protection.
If you read TFA, the kids were trying to find Lava Tubes around Pavonis Mons, a volcano on Mars.
It seems to me that the forces of vulcanism, pushing up lava with only 1/3 gravity MIGHT cause them to form differently from those on Earth, which is why Olympus Mons is much taller than any volcano here.
There is a cave found recently in Mexico with Crystal formations unlike anything ever seen before, outside of that I don't know how much interesting stuff there still is in caves on Earth.
I've been to Mammoth Cave in Kentucky, and none of the caves there are 5-600 feet wide, tall, or anything.
I remember 8th grade AP Science and we never did anything this cool, although in 7th grade we were programming TRS-80s and Apple IIs.
Looks like someone was Soldering and started just NorthEast of this "cave".
Although the "Cave" looks like a "Hole" to me, still cover it with a UV filtering Geodesic Dome, pressurize it and I know where to drop the first colony.
Having some of that Water Ice, and CO2 Ice nearby wouldn't hurt either.
The Flying Scene at the beginning is about all I can think of...
Though, the Laser Surgery station could be downright terrifying in 3D.
The scene where Michael York is being interrogated and spinning around saying there is no sanctuary could be redone in 3D, but really a camera on a dolly did well in the past, and will do just fine for a remake.
If your country wants these service industries, especially the High Tech ones, then maybe its worth considering. 0% tax on the corporation, but regular income tax on the workers themselves, regular taxes on the electricity the company consumes, computers they buy, space they rent, office supplies they use.
You can't get the money to do the engineering to make these things a reality if nobody knows about your research in the first place. Shameless self-promotion (in this case publishing in Science) therefore becomes a necessary evil.
"The next step is to construct solar cells with quantum dots and study them. But one big problem still remains: “Hot” electrons also lose their energy in titanium dioxide. New solar cell designs will be needed to eliminate this loss, the researchers said."
Try to find a 7000K true sunlight full spectrum bulb in 60-100 Watts equivalency that give you a real white light. They have soft white light bulbs that look more like Incandescents you are used to.
They live longer, they use 4x less power, and contain less mercury than the exhaust from the coal burning plant supplying them with power does. The bulbs can be recycled and the mercury from them reused, the mercury and radioactive waste from coal plants just pollutes the air and water.
Well, you might see my other post where I suggested monitoring at the breaker box, no wifi, no vampires, sensors built into the supply side, ID devices by their usage pattern.
Some people will want to know on a constant basis what their usage is, how it goes up in Winter, down in Summer or vice versa depending on their climate.
If the Monitoring station had half the brains of my accounting software it could tell me where I am spending most of my energy budget, and therefore direct any home improvements I was going to make. Maybe the monitor doesn't need to be that smart, maybe you can download the usage data to a computer and do the accounting work there.
A killawatt is certainly a great place to start, that and a programmable thermostat.
Wouldn't it be easier to make the Breaker box smarter and it would KNOW that my Clothes dryer is the high amp draw on circuit 12, the HVAC is the high draw on Circuit 10, the TV is Circuit 15, etc. Even if it can't ID them right away, it could learn the devices by asking you what you just turned on, no need for them all to have smartchips and wifi.
My blender, toaster and can opener all plug in at the same place in the kitchen and have different draw patterns than say the Microwave or the Stove, Oven, Fridge, Dishwasher.
This also overcomes the fact many houses or buildings are multistory and wifi doesn't work well from a central source to all rooms/floors. Yet every room is already Zoned by electrical circuits.
As of June 3 this year only $350-400M has been invested into SpaceX total, less than just this one contract. Less than 1/4 their current NASA contract. They have 30 launches booked right now, lets see how many days they can go without an accident.
Nope, no plans have changed, as I posted elsewhere I did a quick google search on Iridium and GEO and got a hit so I kept on writing my post with GEO costs, still SpaceX LEO costs are dirt cheap too.
SpaceX does have a track record with the Falcon 1, its not so great, but each time they got over their engineering challenges and the next launch was better than the last. the Falcon 9 launch was flawless except for the momentary loss of video as they crossed the horizon.
If you read TFA, Musk says they have 30 launches booked right now, only half of which are Government, less than 10 of the commercial ones are Iridium. That's enough when completed to give them a track record, and hopefully shorten their turnaround times, and increase reuseability. If they do that they should be able to lower cost, all of those things lower the barrier to entry for space based ventures.
That's what I'm excited about. After PayPal, Tesla and SpaceX, I tend to bet with Musk these days.

Why would you charge Ten bucks a month and then still keep the advertising?
I mean aside from the if somebody is willing to pay it factor.
They are buying a factory in California that is jointly owned by Toyota and Chevy.
Nope, they stopped making the Roadsters, all work now is on the S-Sedan and licensing their Drivetrain technology to Mercedes and Toyota.

Heat only becomes a problem if you have a lousy energy policy after the industrial revolution.
Obviously his insurer needs to know it cost him $35k when some yahoos decide to grab his fusion machine after they read about it.
This would explain why SOME DIY Fusors cost hundreds of dollars, but this one costs $35k, its a Gucci.
You've taken out the patent already right?

At least with the Pontiac Fiero, engine fires were truth in advertising!
Extra power packed into batteries by a Scientist named Shoe Horn!
I think you mean;
Give me more Grant money!
Fund my Startup company!
