But when the alternative is NOT eating that delicious lobster roll, what is one to do?
Like it or not, the consumer security ship seems to have sailed and we need processes on the back end to protect ourselves (like the single-use card numbers generated by ApplePay-esque systems).
I applaud you for fighting the good fight, but these security holes feel like a fact of life at this point.
If you feel like giving them another shot, our office uses these pods and we have found that the "Breakfast Blend" is the most drinkable. Not amazing, but way better than the other choices.
IANARS (as is obvious from this question), but If it requires a tank of H, how is this ion engine more efficient than just squirting a small amount of pressurized gas out of the tank instead?
I'm not very familiar with how a voucher system would work, so let me know if I'm off base, but in your example—wouldn't it still keep him from providing adequate service to underprivileged hispanic youth, since he's so good at what he does—everyone in LA would want their kids to be taught by him, diluting his impact on the community that needs it (and presumably he would have wanted to serve) most?
Nothing gets me into the mental soundscape of an album better than 2, 4, or sometimes more square feet of sweet graphics designed to project a visual grounding for the audio content. Those silly itunes previews and even CD slips are a joke in comparison. Poster-size graphics and legible fonts are what do it for me.
That being said, if CD's came in 12"x12" glossy books, I would be all over it, esp. at a sub $10 price point.
And why not toss in a high speed underwater tunnel to connect up with California's rail network while you're at it? Just think how much easier the territorial negotiations would be...
FWIW, the MIT "holiday month" described here is a sort of inter-session called IAP (Independent Activities Period), and is expressly intended for students to do this sort of thing. Or go to charm school, either way....
Go Beavers!
Believe it or not, step 2 is in fact available for a limited time:
Call your congresscritter or write a letter and help us get this bloody healthcare legislation passed.
As someone directly affected by the wanton denial of coverage in the current system, I have no choice but to stay corporate in a field where time and again it has been shown that the entrepreneurs are the ones who are able to bring about the exciting innovation that made me fall in love with the profession. Certainly not the worst of the horror stories in this debate, but the reality is that we have a limited time right now to make things a little better for a lot of people, and provide a safety net for those who would dare to break out of their corporate shackles and try something potentially game changing. just my 2...
Well said! And to think i just ran out of mod points...
Keep speaking truth like this and we might even be able to get a prison system that isn't allowed to become so bloated and overcrowded that it's deemed unconstitutional (here in California at least), while the state swings the budget axe on everything *but* this most massive of welfare programs.
Which is more productive to society: massive cuts in education funding from kindergarden all the way up through graduate level research - or incarcerating the 3,629 non-violent 3rd striker's for 25 to life?
Just to break that down (assuming the minimum 25 years for each of those people, and the $40k/yr estimate for keeping them locked up), that's over $3.6 Billion (with a B) in state money, which you may have heard is in rather short supply at the moment.
The antenna is an RCA Ant 1400. It's a thin white rectangle that you can hang on the wall behind your tv or just lay flat (multi-directional, though a certain placement may work better for the reception where you are). Cost about $35 at Amazon.
That includes subchannels. Of course, a lot of those subchannels are programed separately - for example, Fox has a subchannel (maybe a different station all together?) which seems to be nothing but latin dance music videos. Lots of asian programing in the upper channels. One station is just jazz music with no video content (like the music channels on sat. TV if you've tried that). The 3 distinctly programed PBS channels are good and the NBC subchannel with nothing but winter sports is strangely addictive...(luuuged!)
Mainly though, it's all about the major networks in HD plus the few cable shows I would have watched on comedy central/CN that are now free to stream.
FWI: I'm using an RCA ANT 1400 Multi-directional indoor antenna.
Here in the Bay Area I get about 42 digital channels over the air, many of which are HD. Between that and all the streamable content on sites like Hulu, and Netflix on demand, the case for paying a monthly cable or satellite fee really does seem pretty weak these days. (At least for those in major metropolitan areas.)
Though it doesn't take it to the degree you are suggesting (if I recall correctly) the Universal Building Code, applicable in most states, stipulates that for high occupancy spaces the main entrance path has to be sufficiently sized to handle at least half of the egressing occupants. Maybe this isn't enough, but I don't know the statistics on how people actually behave during an emergency.

I wonder if it could work with a Bluetooth keyboard
There's a dockable keyboard.
and a Bluetooth keyboard... so, yes.

But just think of all the frequent flier miles that the customers just accrued!
Stop the presses! A PR Firm promotes the value of running a PR campaign!

At least it's not the guy from next 2007 - he made a 250,000-node robotnet, and did a lot more with it than stealing some piddly passwords.
