Couldn't they have spent all this effort on trying to explain Snookie from 'Jersey Shore' instead? I'm confident we'd all be better off if they proved she didn't exist.
If you would RTFA, you'd see that these mites can infest humans, and can lead to bacterial infections, itching rashes, and thickening of the skin.
Sounds like an improvement to me. Better than "The Grapes of Wrath" for sure. At least your average high school student might actually READ "The da Vinci Code".

I think the point is that it helps someone focus. When they see a font they're used to (or hear a familiar voice), it's easy to attempt to function on auto-pilot while really thinking about something else. When faced with something new (but familiar), the brain needs more focus, and a double-check to make sure that the signal was interpreted correctly, so you're thinking about the message to make sure you heard/read correctly. I wonder if making people wear earmuffs or noise cancellation headgear would improve their memories of a speech.
Money in religion comes from donations, not advertising.
I wish you had told my church's finance committee this before they looked into buying a 15ft tall caveman cartoon to advertise tithing. Thankfully they balked at the quote, but they printed tons of fliers and some 6ft standups.:(
"They were immediately replaced."
Seriously, who is going to launch a nuclear weapon anyway? It's like committing suicide..
I'm sure there were a lot of people who thought no one would strap explosives to themselves either.
But more to the point: the reason it's suicide is because it's mutually assured destruction. If it's not mutually assured, then it's less likely to be suicidal.
How about we unpack that story a little further to something like:
"Juan Williams fired for saying that when he sees Muslims getting on a plane with him he's afraid they're going to blow it up."
How about we unpack that comment a little further to something like:
Juan Williams fired for saying that "when he sees Muslims getting on a plane with him he gets a little nervous", and then saying that the type of visceral response he has is wrong because it's the basis for discrimination based on appearance. It was a perfect example of someone trying to follow the good path, but his body (psychology) getting in the way initially.
His boss obviously didn't watch the full clip on Fox before pulling out the Fire stick, and refused to listen to him over the phone.
If you're already using debian-based products, why not use Maemo for the phones and apt-get debian-ARM.debs? Even if regular syncing doesn't work, you could automate an rsync over SSH with passwordless pke.
from what i understand we (the west) does two different things:
1.) we dont allow free agricultureal imports from developing countries, this is what you mentioned.
2.) we dump our products subsidized into their markets since we would have to destroy them otherwise.
point 2 seems really malicous and despiccable to me especially if combined with capriccous notions like producing biofuel or some other fad.
Destroying the products seems wasteful and malicious if there are people that need them.
But, apparently this is what libertarians and teabaggers want. They want to stand outside their box in the street (as their house was condemned because a business wanted a 7-11 on that spot)
You were going so great until this point. Eminent Domain is an example of government intervention, not corporate greed (unless the corp pays the land owner $$$ in a fair transaction).
Breathing in clean air and drinking water free of lead and cadminum also are nice luxuries too.
I dare you to find any water that has any cadminum in it, let alone cadmium that has cadminum in it.
Yeah I'm sure most judges won't be very impressed or convinced with the typical Slashdot Pedant's attempts of weaseling out via "perfect logic".
Those pedants are like those nerdy kids who have "figured out game rules" but haven't figured out why nobody wants to play with them.
I still like to play AD&D 2nd edition because fighters who specialize in throwing darts can do incredible damage at first level (4x(1d3+[str bonus]) per round)
I am using Windows 7 and it is in the regular place of Tools>Folder Options.
Obviously you fail at computers.
I am also using Windows 7 (unmodified by AD GPO settings) right now, and I can assure you that "Tools" doesn't show up in the file manager by default unless you go to Organize->Layout->MenuBar and turn on the menu-bar (why use a menu-bar to turn on a menu-bar?). Your corporate IT has probably "fixed" the UI for you. I won't say you fail at computers because you're probably passable, just not fully informed.
Oh, also the kid is exerting increasingly firm control over the South China Sea, but I'm not sure how to work that into the analogy.;-)
The kid has been mowing a strip of his neighbor's land for so long that the neighbor stopped mowing it. Now the kid is suing to have the rights to that strip of land.
In any explorer window go to Tools > Folder Options and then the View tab. Everything is right there and always has been.
In Windows 7, it is in "Organize->Folder and Search Options->View"
As far as the My Documents folders and all that nonsense, I agree that it is just more confusing to people that can't handle file hierarchy as it is, but they have only changed once (From the Documents and settings folder in XP-era OS's to c:/users in Vista and Windows 7).
Not only have many more folders changed, there are now junctions and symlinkdirs from the old versions laying around, and the junctions/symlinkdirs don't work for every program.
I envision a PETA campaign where they dress up bacteria, amoeba, and viruses in kitten outfits. "Digestive Tract Kittens! Meat poisons them! Give them beans!"

Lets not let the tail wag the dog. APT was created on and used initially with Debian.
The distro that makes a no-frills version of Ubuntu? Props to them for sending it upstream.
The battle between the kdawson haters and the Apple haters starts NOW!

Not to mention, way too obsessed with sex and the human form[?].
You weren't reading the same greek myths I was reading. Beams of light, bulls, birds, everything but human.

Nice! It doesn't really matter if nukes work or not anyway; they are not intended to actually be used, and this just helps them stay that way.
But they are intended to have the potential to be used, otherwise they lose their power as a deterrent.

Too many liberals. And I am not even trolling...
Explains why NPR is so boldly pronouncing it, if they're not even hiding their bias any more (Juan Williams fired for fox appearance).

Even lynx and links have SSL support. Maybe Java One Start doesn't do https?

I'm sorry but I disagree that the sped up video is nothing short of impressive.
Even at 16x, I quickly lost interest.
So, if you played it at 4x or 2x, you would slowly lose interest.
At that rate, you should play it backwards. It would instantly be your favorite footage!
It's always more fun to watch someone destroy the creations than watch someone build them.

Apple can't have caused the housing crash, Apple-made houses have no windows which makes them crash-proof.
