It has been reported that several of the largest pharmaceutical companies setup fake technical journals in which papers written about their new (I ) wonder drugs, are pushed as being utopean. I wont give initials, but judicious search using Google or Yahoo will lead you further information.
When the journal costs a million to setup and distribute, but profits are in the hundred's of millions (or billions), there is a great marketing justification.
Doctors are being bamboozled.
The world is very message oriented, and it is trivial and very desirable for dissidents to jump to other services.
Even without dissidents, not everyone is a terrorist, or a criminal, and thus, what it does is keep family members (parents stuck in those countries) from communicating with children not in those 5.
So, like everything else, there will be tunneling using remote desktop or some other service, and from there, access to MSN from outside the 5.
For almost every barrier, there is a workaround.
Here is what that action will do in the world outside of the USA microcosm. I am actually waiting for a parallel internet service to start up. It will, as the world looks for security from the dominance of one country to having an ISO or global (perhaps UN) organisation controlling domain names.
And I bet this new service will have technology built in to limit virus attacks, denial of service attacks, and lots more anti-spam stuff. Any site that sends more then x emails per hour will be throttled, unless it is in an allowed list.
I cannot however forecast what will happen with torrents.
We live in the beginning of interesting times.
In the Canadian Justice system, we can petition the courts to expunge a guilty verdict for a misdemeanor (shoplifting) if the person has been clean for 7 years.
The information will no longer be public record.
Surely such information should have been expunged from the records for something that happened as a teenager or very very early 20's in the life of a young person.
We also have a young offenders act that blocks all publications.
Suppose you are at the limit on a highway, and you need to pass a vehicle going at 5miles under. You start to pass, note danger (other cars are on your tail too) and need to accelerate to pass. You go from 60mph to 80mph, and the kill switch comes in and zaps power.
You can die, and take others along with you.
I make extensive use of tabbing. True there are some problems related to software implementation (memory management), but that is technical.
Ergonomic considerations taken, do not replace with ribbon or column based selector, or give me the option for any three methods.
Technology changes, and eventually you will enter a branch that demands specialisation. That may serve you well for 15 - 20 years, when you will discover that your obsolete. Technology advanced faster then you could keep up.
Get a degree. Get an Masters and even an MBA. Actually, become a doctor-- a job for life.
I am around 50, and considered over the hill, and I have a masters in math. Too expensive they say, or too old.
Am I bitter. No, because I should have started my own business.
Lenova is right. Right as the requirement to earn profits.
Actually, if a netbook is $50.00 more, and we keep it for 4 years, that is about $.25 per week for the software and the support. Not a bad deal, I think.
I play with Linux, and thus far, it serves the purpose. However, who is to say that in the future we wont all be subscribing to a isp for our entire office software.
Will these be taken home, or left in school? If the former, it will be interesting if one household has 2 kids in the same school (grade 2 and grade 3). Will the parents purchase a 2nd machine?
Will the bios be locked, to prevent tampering with? If not, mom and dad will be there to try a newer linux version, a eBook mod, or even a competing distribution installation.
This project must be well thought out. I am believing that it will take two or three years to iron out the wrinkles. And I hope there are no lawsuits to kill the project. Litigious suites for those worshiping the god of profit.
Even though the male generates no sperm, there is no indication that there is any continuence in desire. More knowledge about side effects would be great to learn about.
My permenant contrceptive was...
I had a vasectomie and the first year I could detect the difference in two ways.
There was less viscosity in the fluid, and my wife stopped worrying. The latter was worth every bit of my decision to do what I wanted out of love. That love is going on to it's 41st year.
Now that apps for the Iphone are ubiquitious, including ones not blessed by Apple, and given Apple has milked the last ounce of profit from the acknowledged ones, it is time to increase Iphone sales by allowing everyone to develop applications for it.
A truly great marketing strategy.

I'm for it. I can recall when we had to buy a radio license, for the privilege or listening.
Then a TV license to compensate the music industry from lost listening.
So why not internet licensing. But will it allow us the unchoked downloads and bittorrents we need?
They Big ISPs will succeed. The city will have to make a wholly owned corp and have it run at arms length if they are to compete. Perhaps they have already done that.
With falling revenues, MS has no choice. They must cut back.
We can complain about them, but when they hurt, the nation hurts.
There was a saying "Whats good for GM is good for the nation". And just replace GM with MS.
Whats wrong with stating that Monday nights is skipped from the power off demand, and its power-off every other night. Thus, on Monday nights, the system updates could be scheduled.
That change would provide 6/7th of the anticipated savings.
It would be great if the summer heat liberated by air conditioning systems could be stored in huge underground tanks of anti-freeze or similar liquid, and then used in winter with a heat exchange to preheat the air going into homes. Why even the exhausted summer heat from homes could be used to do the same. The concept is to use ground source heat exchange systems.
You will switch when you have to upgrade hardware, and the operating system comes as the only one to work on that hardware. (XP would not have the updated drivers for video, audio, and networking, and so forcing that upgrade)
If the company does tricks to cheat the system, just take away the benefits on the other side. (Transportation and keeping foreign paper out from the market).
Microsoft only relies on American soil stats of operating systems use. So, Windows is always gaining over linux.
World wide, Microsoft is losing ground to MAC, and to Linux.
Do you think that the ISPs can be thwarted, if each email or send packet contains the keywords that they are using as a trigger.
Suppose they trigger on Bomb, then everyone who sends an email should contain this word. I am sure that every hour they would be able to analyse 3 or 4 million emails with the word bomb.
So much for DPI.
Touch screens are really matrices of printed resistance wire grids. If throughout the day the entire screen remains at the same temperature as when calibrated, then calibration remains. If however, because the screen grid is on an lcd, parts of the lcd screen may become warmer then other parts, the grid wire resistance lowers at those points. This resistance change throws off the logic to determine a coordinate square.
There are two ways to fix it. One is to echo on the screen, a square next to the candidates name with a checkmark. And another button for a confirm.
The other way is to have a set of buttons corresponding to each candidate.
Both require a "Are you sure" button.
Finally, if those two solutions are impractical, the paper ballet should be the "when all else fails" default.
I find that what is important is the amount of download, and not necessarily t1 speeds for residential service.
I have a plan for a dsl line connection, which gives me unlimited downloads (around 650k-700k bytes per second) at $30.00 Canadian.
I presume you can get the same thing from www.acanac.net
The American dollar is worth about $1.25 Canadian, so that my $30/mo is actually about $25 US.
Give it a checkout

Do not allow Biden to have sensitive information.

I thought standard procedure was to run over the disk with a steam roller. A new disk is required to make use of the diskless remainder.

Happens with IE8 and XP, only the limit seems to be every second tab. The ones skipped over are left blank.
