It was a NASA owned U-2. They do atmospheric testing. They basically fly a pattern in the sky over and over. The problem with the flight plan was that the U-2 was assigned VFR-on-Top. What that mean is the plane was flying using VFR(Visual) flight rules on top of clouds. This normally occurs below 18000 feet. As such, I think the VFR-on-Top system was only designed for below 18000 feet. As the U-2 was above 60000 feet, the system was processing it for conflicts at every altitude, causing a buffer overflow. They are working on a patch to fix that problem, and in the meantime have implemented a workaround for us. That's what our memo told us at work.

Why not go back to the math textbooks and curriculum that taught the men who put men on the moon? If the math was solid then, why is it not now? Do we have a new way to solve the problems now then we did back in the 30's and 40's? If high school still requires you to read books written in the 1800's, how is a literature textbook published today talking about it different then one from 1940? Is it not PC to use a textbook from that era? If the US was the leader in education then, go back to that type of education.
This does not mean back to segregation in the school system.
Other then the hard sciences were new discoveries can change the rules, why do the basic textbooks change that much?
I subscribe to both the DVD and streaming plan. For my personal use, if it's not streaming, it's torrented. For the rest of the family, if it's not streaming, they DVD it, which are usually movies I have no desire to see, nor download. Some content providers give you no option other then to use DVD, then complain when you torrent it. It's not a lost sale, as I would never buy it anyways, it's a lost business opportunity(thus revenue) with streaming providers, such as Netflix. I would really much prefer to have them streaming. I wish the studios would understand that, any profit is better then no profit.
I worked first tier tech support for the NYC DOE for 2 years. The amount of space the regular employees get for email is 25MB. Asst. Principals get 30, and Principals get 50.
Maybe your notification email isn't up to date, or it got put in spam or something. I got an email from Steam the day after the story appeared here. It was the same text that was on the forum page and the news page when Steam loads up.
Of course there is no historical evidence there was an apple. No where does it ever say it was an apple. All Genesis ever refers to is a fruit, or in the Greek, froúto(phonetic).
I'm an air traffic controller in the US. We're getting paid. It's our support and design engineer people that got hosed, as they are paid out of the unfunded trust fund thing, not controllers. Controllers and admin are paid under the regular payroll budget. About 7000 or so FAA employees are on unpaid furlough, and about 10000 contractors are without contract. It basically affects projects to expand or renovate airports.
As to the "not getting paid" part, when the federal government almost went on furlough earlier this year, we(controllers) would have been working without pay.
Do they really expect these things to never evolve? We feed them enough drugs for long enough, the survivors will pass on whatever it was that allowed them to survive to the next generation. Sooner or later, they have a whole colony that is immune to drug X and Y, we just need to find drug Z and AA, and in another 50-100 years, repeat. Sooner or later, we'll be able to go back to drug X and Y.
If they really want to kill IE6, and other older browsers; Google, Facebook, Youtube, and the American Idol home pages need to cut support cold turkey and provide links to the top three current browsers, in random order(as to prevent the top one from being the most downloaded). Same with IPv6, just start throwing up a page for IPv4 users that says, "Hey! You're using IPv4, and this web site requires you to switch to IPv6. Here's how to change to IPv6. If you can't, call your ISP at ### and tell them you want IPv6!"
My phone doesn't even come into the bedroom with me. It stays in the living room at night. If it's so deathly important for someone to get a hold of me, I have a door bell.
Darth Bane squeezed his father's heart until it stopped using the force. This was before he was trained in the force, so he was neither Jedi nor Sith. Given that, It could be assumed that any force user could do that, but it takes a lot of energy, and if used against another force user, they'd have a hard time.

Any ever see Wall-E and what happens when the make-up robot went bonkers? I'd like to not have one with 16 fingers around my skull. No thank you robot overlords.
How did the industery react when cassette sales started to slip and CDs soared? Or when 8-track started to slip and cassette soared? Or, or, what ever came before whatever and the older format started slipping to the new format? Oh no, the old way to buy and listen to music is being replaced by the new was to buy and listen to music. I'm sure in 10-15 years they will be complaining because online sales are slipping to, something. *Gets my tin foil hat ready.*
The movie theater I use doesn't have "future tech" allowing it to just know I bought my tickets from Fandango, thus requiring me to print my tickets. The airshow I went to recently also has the same drawback, requiring me to print my tickets. I find a neat recipe online, I print it now instead of adding some needless bookmark, yes, I could write it down, but it wouldn't be neat and I could write something down wrong. I print an online ad for a sale item at a store, so when I bring it to the store with me, I know what it looks like, the model number, and to know if the store is trying to bait and switch me. Again, I could write this info down and draw a sketch, but printing is better. I'm trying to sale something by putting a notice up on the board in my mail room. I can take a pic of the item and include it on the printed post. My daughter likes to color, so I find stuff she likes to color and I print it. I could go on and on. Not everyone lives in your paperless world; and not everyone lives in my print stuff word. Having the option to print and not using it is better then wanting to print and being told to fuck yourself.
Well, if they keep allowing the release of 40 different versions of Imagine Babysitter and Pony Lover DS and whatever else crap takes up 90% of the Nintendo sections in stores, they won't have to worry about piracy, cause no one will want the crap. Push Squenix for a FFVI 3D remake and how about a new Kid Icuras, or New Super Mario Bros. 2 with bigger worlds and the racoon suit from SMB3?
You wanna see super taskers, look at an ambulance that's driving with it's lights and sirens on. We would clear an intersection, zip around traffic, talk on the radio, plug in addresses into GPS, and eat our lunch all at the same time, while trying to provide a smooth ride for the people in back doing CPR and handling sharp pointy objects.

Mathematically speaking, for every $100 decline in physical music sales over the past ten years there has been an $18 increase in digital music sales.
Never mind the fact that people stopped buying the $15-$20 CD for just the one song that they can now get for $1-$2.

How does this hurt the brain? Isn't it just the eyestrain that gives the headache? I thought the brain itself had no pain receptors.
I seem to need an invite, ceiynt(gmail).
I hope you keep a second wallet to hold the papers proving the first papers are your papers.
and they call MMO fees too expensive.
Buy your DRM book, then run it through Calibre, problem solved.

Well, seeing as they couldn't keep the first PSP closed to hackers, what makes them think they will keep a Droid based one better protected.
