Indeed. From what I understand, at least in the denser parts of Japan, the walls between complete strangers (like between units of an apartment complex) are very thin, yet they don't mind at all. Thinking about it, I can see how privacy can be a learned concept, heavily influenced by the culture you're in.
Huh, I always thought the answers at the bottom of the page were from "non-experts", and the experts' answers were at the top and cloaked. I have Googled into Experts Exchange a lot, and it's frequently been quite helpful. It would seem to me that this cloaking thing will only deter those who are new to Experts Exchange, and anyone who comes upon it frequently and would actually benefit from the paid service (if it gave what it promised) will easily discover where the answers actually are.
I've had a TI-83 Plus, a TI-83 Plus Silver Edition, and a TI-89 Titanium. All are still going strong. My sister's TI-82 broke, though. She got it at a yard sale, so I don't know where it'd been.
Many a class have I been able to bear with thanks only to my TI Graphing Calculator. I've made probably 500 programs, that work in some sense of the word, on the things. At home, instead of playing games, I would build them, then play a little before building another.
Professor Deirdre M. Smith is an Associate Professor of Law at the University of Maine School of Law, and the Director of the Cumberland Legal Aid Clinic. The University of Maine School of Law is actually a part of the University of Southern Maine, which is a part of the University of Maine System. The University of Maine, which has a flagship campus in Orono and a few other campuses, is also a part of the University of Maine System. The University of Maine and the University of Southern Maine are separate. Therefor, Professor Deirdre M. Smith is not "of the University of Maine".
I seem to remember reading this somewhere before, like a month ago. On Slashdot I thought. Something about a self contained nuclear "box" about as big as this one, that would be marketed to 3rd world villages. You would hook up water pipes, bury it, and let it run for 5-10 years. Any water going through turns to steam, and you do what you want with it. It was safe because it didn't need rods going in and out or something.
Crap. Here's the same post, with proper formatting. Guess I should have hit Preview, huh?
Every once in a while my Vista machine develops a little networking problem. I usually have to disable and re-enable the network card to bring it back. But, if I run Vista's network Diagnose & Repair first, a stupidity arises.
It tries to ping www.microsoft.com, and when it fails, it complains. Why is it trying to ping www.microsoft.com? Www.microsoft.com does not reply to pings. Microsoft.com does (usually), but not www.microsoft.com. Www.microsoft.com resolves to lb1.www.ms.akadns.net, and IP addresses 207.46.19.190 and 207.46.192.254. A sample of the error message is bellow.
[Window Title]
Windows Network Diagnostics

Cannot communicate with www.microsoft.com(207.46.192.254).

Network diagnostics pinged the remote host but did not receive a response.

So, why on earth do they have the tool ping www.microsoft.com? Seems stupid to me.

We took the family to one of those restaurants where the walls are plastered with movie memorabilia. I went off to see the hostess about reserving a table.
When I returned, I found my 11-year-old daughter staring at a poster of Superman standing in a phone booth. She looked puzzled.
"She doesn't know who Superman is?" I whispered to my husband.
"Worse," he replied. "She doesn't know what a phone booth is."

Document IEEE 1541-2002 states, basically, that there are 1000 bytes in a kilobyte (kB), and 1024 bytes in a kibibyte (KiB). IEEE considers it a full-use standard.
I find that if one doesn't know the context, the difference can be most frustrating. Here is a quick lookup reference I put up.
Right, and here is another fact sheet, from the EPA, entitled FACT SHEET: Mercury in Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs): http://www.nema.org/lamprecycle/epafactsheet-cfl.p df
This sheet states that more mercury is put into the environment by 5 years' use of an incandescent bulb then by 5 years' use of a CFL, even if the CFL is broken and put in the Environment. This is assuming a coal power plant powers both.

If you're looking for the actual torrent files, episodes 1-8 can be found at the bottom of this post: http://nrkbeta.no/norwegian-broadcasting-nrk-makes-popular-series-available-drm-free-via-bittorrent/. I'm downloading episode 1 right now, and it has 73 seeds and 42 peers.

I think I found the original 2 results of the search, when the number of results was still down at 12. Both results pointed to this blog: http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=59755147&blogID=106406778

Oh, and the p2pnet article linked to in TFA looks like it has a poorly resized picture turned black and white pulled from this website: http://mainelaw.maine.edu/faculty-details.aspx?facultyID=18
