"I think part of the problem is that it's an expensive show. It is [a great show], but we don't have the viewership that a great show should get."
Of course you dont have the viewership, man it's on space channel, i like space channel but when you want millions of people to view your show you try to get it on regular channels and not specilaty.
battlestar galactica is great but space channel, in some circle, is still an obscure one and not available everywhere, plus the fact that saturday or sunday nights are rarely good nights to air any show.
I'm curious as too why they never include the theory that the two poles are changing polarity.
they have discovered, in volcanoes and such that the rock when it solidifies, that it has a pattern to follow earth,s polarity (iron particles) and they have checked at several depth,(meaning several hundreds and thousand years apart) that the polarity has shifted more than once since the beginning. That shift did not operate itself over night and they are saying that maybe that we are in that declining period where a polarity switch will occur (maybe in a thousand year) and the effects are that the magnetic field that protect us from the sun's deadly rays will completely slowly disappear leaving scorched earth everywhere except maybe near the equator and when that switch is completed the holes, that we are seeing will completely disappear pollution or no pollution, for sure at that point, they will mostly be no one left alive on earth thus leaving our planet pollution free.
Overall, i think that, even though pollution is creating hell of a lot of problems, that maybe it ain't the sole reason for the greenhouse effects and it maybe an infinite percentage of this pollution affecting earth's atmosphere.
For sure we cant deny that smog over cities are a big factor in raising the temperature and it's due to pollution.
they should of sticked to the comic strip where it takes off in the future and the last attack on skynet and not start another bullshit movie where you knw the end because DUUUHH they need to make it to the time machine.
For this work i would start exactly when they sent connor through the time machine and realize that the future has not changed and then go from there.
They should let Peter Jackson make every scfi-fi and fantsay movies for the next decade, make it a law, at least we'll get good casting and good storyline
Money is one factor, event though you can get a cheap computer fro under 700$ or even a seconds machine for under 300$ you still have to hook it up to the internet,
For some people that is a;ready too much money and also the fact that a lot of user have computers at work and fell like they dont need to buy one since they do everything at work (unfortunately)
You can still have a full life without being an internet addict, they are still BOOKS out there.
How in hell will i ever get to watch movies now if they ban the previews, OH wait true i'm 35, with a wife and kids, work all day, tired at night, doing basement over the next year, go to movies once in while when mother in law is available.
I DONT CARE, i barely have the time to go so who care if they ban previews, ouhh i'm missing out, are they going to ban it from video stores? no well i'll wait for the dvd.
Pirate copies,...tsk! the only thing they should do is feel sorry for the poor chaps who watches pirated movies on their 20 inch lcd screen hoping no one will shout in the audience or get up.
that's like masturbating with the braw section of any FREE women's clothing magazine, it's just a few and there is no alarm.
Imagine now that all that magnetic field affecting all you cards in your wallet, it would have to be small so not to interfere , you would probably have problem with tv's and or crt monitor (very bad with magnetic fields)
Hum i seem to recall (sorry for my lack of tech words) that cell regeneration which decreases and ultimately stop entirely is due to specific cells burning slowly.
I once saw a depiction of those cells like small rod, strangely looked liked matches, that slowly wither and dies, they havent found a way to prevent the decay of those cells which are linked to old age.
Diet is O.K but if you cant stop the aging process, you wont extend your life over 120 unless you live in space to lower the effect of gravity on bones.
And dieting for the rest of your life aint a solution, healthy people die at young age as well as fat people dying at 95, we all know that fat will lower your lifespan but will it make you go over the age limit of what your body can go? i dont think so
Hum!!! Unless you are there looking at the data being backed up there is no way unless you get notification from your system that it has completed.
usually that is the case but it has happened when one of my backup failed one night and someone needed a file restores from the previous day, if that company never checked it's backup or never configure some kind of noticaition upon failiure or success then they are very lame
well that would be nice to have babies in zero-g, maybe an all new brand of space explorers, adapted to their environment, only problem would be that they could never land anywhere due to fragile bones and lacks of muscle toning.
unless they fix the issue with gravity aboard ships
I find it weird that you get arrested for writing stuff, i know i feel like having a machine gun on top of my car and blasting people out of the sky sometimes but there is huge difference between imagination and doing it.
Sure for some people the line is thin but this guy was ask to write what he felt and he did not hide it.
everyone has Dark thoughts at some point and writing them on paper is sometimes a way to expel the bad stuff, does not mean you have to arrest someone.
Maybe get counseling if you say that you want to strangle small kitten while naked and oiled in your bathroom but other than that...i think this kid is just a victim of what happened at virginia tech,it was a bad judgment call on his part talking about this so close to that incident but now that society has made him aware that saying the truth and expressing your feeling is bad , maybe he'll do something stupid the next time because he knows that if he talk , he will be treated like a maniac.
Society is what makes us, repress or isolate someone long enough and your probably facing a timebomb.
I did not say it was the perfect ingredient,,,,i myself like beers that are made with pure product and regular sugar for high fermentation but corn syrup is used in some types of beers, not for taste but to replace sugar cane.
I can check if it's because it's easier or juts cheaper to use that, sometimes ingredient are most stable than others and the downsides can be minimal.
If you ever tasted corn in a beer, it's because they used corn syrup and that beer turned bad.
I work in a beer company and we do belgian style and other brands (i cant disclose) and our belgian dont have corn syrup but the others do.
it figures that sales are higher than last year, XP is not new and is installed mostly everywhere,,,Vista aint, so if we compare growth and sales Vista will surpass sales for Xp since most of every windows users already own a copy of XP and dont need to purchase it every 6 month
to me e-mail clients are all the same with different tweaks. What bothers me is when a new one comes out and they change the fell of it.
i know they dont want to be like outlook express but hey1 most people use outlook express so why not make something better than MS but with a look a like feel?
There lies the problem of all other O.S (except MAC) like linux, most people wont change if it's too different, they like having better features and speed but not if they have to completely learn from scratch. , that's the sad truth.
well scrolling forever aint pleasurable and other than not writing in caps and adressing people correctly,posting the reply after the message has no bearing whatsoever.
Actually in Canada there is laws that oblige phone companies to do service jobs on any given line when it's down, so if you have an adsl line (usually come with a phone number as well) you can call 611 and report a line failure and they will get on it right away, by law they have to give you service right away.
So your t1 is important but your regular lines as well.

they strongly discourage the use of this blood below 0 degree celsius, it is said it stiffens the body.
"One thing I can't explain is how the military uses eye tracking to aim missiles -- it seems like that system would run into the same problems."
Well how do you know they make it work efficiently? havent you heard in the last 10 years how many wrong target they took down in other countries?

i hope that they were put in separate boxes because if, someone in a thousand years opens that box and tries to rebuild a human from dna.

It's going to be a serious mess of a human.
My name is scotty, or is it doohan, maybe it's martha
