That may explain my having a bunch of molar cavities in the 'pit' of the bite surface, around age 22. The dentist said it was a failure of that area to 'fuse' properly, but now I wonder of this was aggrivated by sugar consumption.
Iris size reacts to how bright something is in the visible spectrum, but don't react to the amount of UV, which does the damage. That's why good sunglasses have UV filtration.
Arthur C. Clarke, in a footnote his 1968 book "The Conquest of Space," said venusian sounded good but was wrong, venerian raised false hopes, and cytherian was correct but only classics scholars knew what it meant.
The Saturn V used liquid-fuelled rocket engines, which took hours to fuel. Beginning with Polaris and Minuteman I, all military rockets were solid fuelled, for ease of storage and fast launch time. The technologies almost could not be more divergent. So, how is one a cover for the other?
Back when (around 1980, maybe earlier?), I saw an ad for Halon on TV. A man on a high chair was surrounded by a liquid, which was then ignited. After a few seconds, the Halon was activated and the fire was out in about 1 second. He could still breathe. He tried to light a match, to relight the still-present liquid, but the match went out instantly.
Of course, few were thinking about ozone depletion. I was just amazed this stuff was so fastand so long-lasting.
Different models. Bookstores have more copies of current books, while libraries have more titles. Maybe your library should network with others; in San Diego County, California, with a mix of city and county libraries federated as the "Serra Library System," this is effective.
Insist the "higher-ups" go through your direct boss. Not every boss will protect you this way, but unless it's a really small startup, they should, IMO.
I read this as saying, government is unresponsive. Have you considered organizing politically to get what you want? Maybe fundraising to buy your own poliicians? Barring structural reforms in the Amercian political system, that is how things get done. Whining about government being bought is naive, and using it to promote a pro-corporate agenda is antidemocratic (see Kevin Phillips 2002 book "Wealth and Democracy." You can find it in your government-run public library:) .
University CS departments have always done OS and language research (I'm thinking specifically of Bertrand Meyer and Eiffel), so something like Unix or C would likely evolved. Remember AT&T was under a consent decree not to sell computer software, so they essentially gave Unix away to universities for the trivial cost of duplicating some mag tapes and manuals.
In general, though, I agree that the current competetive environment is anti-research. If you want to cut costs, those line items that are risky and have a long timeline are vulnerable.
My point, and I do have one*, was that old missile-launching boosters may have compromised quality to cost, more so than launchers for fancy (costly) satellites or human spaceflight.
The launcher was built to deliver an H-bomb to a target, not orbit a satellite or a person. If you build it (relatively) cheap, it's less likely to accomplish its mission. But you can build more cheap launcher/bomb pairs, allowing (a) a successful mission if you have to, and (b) deter opponents with all those missiles.
It kept the peace during the Cold War, but peace by potlatch is REALLY COSTLY.
At least they aren't chemical engineers cross-trained in coding. I saw that in my first post-collegiate government job, during the recession of 1981-2. It was a bad scene: dedicated people who couldn't get work in their chosen field, paddling as fast as they could.
Embedded Systems Design is a magazine and a web site that covers that field. Realizing that many embedded s/w engineers are really dual-hatted EEs, they have had some "basics" articles over the last few years.
In hindsight, the original theory sounds decidedly suspicious.
I've heard that, after Hans Selye's work on stress, there was a period of sloppily using "stress" as a default "diagnosis" to explain away the unknown disease processes, such as gastric ulcer.
I remember discussing this with my graduate advisor in chemistry around 1992; he was glad to see someone persist in the face of criticism to understand what was really going on.

Trident's ad pitch the virtues of sugarless gum. Dentyne uses, or used, the slogan "Brush your breath with Dentyne."

Maybe Google and this other one. Who has 3com's showplace building near Route 237? I think it was them.
One of the S.V. companies was offering $5K towards a hybrid, sometime in the last year. Not sure now, maybe 3com.
Should be good. I read "Johnstown Flood" in my teens and "Truman" when it came out and enjoyed both.
I did notice that the Post Office got more pleasant after they lost parcel business to UPS, Fedex, and others, and letter busines to fax and email.

Every day I ask myself why this is happening.
It was one of those boutique record stores that sell obscure, independent releases that no-one listens to, not even the people that buy them.
I think you answered your own question.

Yeah, now. :)
weird cyclopropene
Doesn't that ring have a lot of strain on it? No wonder the overall reaction was low-yield. Were you using some sort of host-guest approach?
