Couple of boxing lessons (to learn how to properly punch/defend/move) and learning from MMA fighters in UFC (submitions and how to get out of them) is all you should really need.

Baikonur is in Kazakhstan ... but no matter, an interesting story instead. I would have preferred if they weren't clear on the origins of the person in the capsule ... but instead kept the possibility of time travel (it seemed appropriate to me when the stories used were the same, likewise with the gear).

The US DMCA includes provisions and exceptions written by library of congress, one such provision is when the work in question cannot be obtained easily or the device to play it on cannot be obtained easily. In short: roms of SNES/NES/Genesis/and other console games from before 90s can be legaly distributed (can you buy a 2600 to play pong?). Of course, if nintendo offers the game through the Wii, then it becomes illegal again since it is now easily available. Sony removing backwards compatibility on PS3 means that images of PSX and PS2 games are now legal to distribute since I can't walk into a store and buy a system to play them, nor can I go to a store and buy the actual game.

I am not a lawyer, but would appreciate if one would correct me if I am misunderstanding something.

Works with my camera (Logitech 9000) and my scanner (Canon u1240n aka Lide30) without any issues. The scanner was a nice surprise because installing the windows drivers for that was voodoo. Yes, Canon and Linux, it just works (tm). (I really didn't expect it to.)

I was looking for a wifi router that I could run Linux on.

In the end, I built a system for about 400USD (parts from newegg) based around Jetway JNC81.
Dual Gigabit ethernet ports, built in wifi (with added card, but AP not supported by driver yet, used an atheros PCI card).

Ubuntu Server with UFW and it works awesome.

What about simply installing Linux? Boot from CD and no need for bootcamp or anything like that.

Add Sophos enterprise to that list.

Media companies want Google to pay, not us (consumers). Because you can charge Google $X (where X has 7 digits) whereas to get consumer money, you have to produce a useful product.

Call Brooklyn College and ask about CIS 46.1 - Distributed System Administration. ;) (not basics, but you do get to do cool stuff with FreeBSD).
Then there is CIS 2.50 - UNIX Shell Programming, CIS 2.55 - Perl Programming and CIS 46 - Workstation Programming (write your own shell as a midterm).
These are all undergrad classes though. Don't think that most of them have graduate equivalents. :(

Walk up to any manned booth and say the following words: "May I have a map, please?"

As for schedule, every 8-10 minutes during the day.

You're welcome. :)

Even those don't count (as they are never accurate anyway). ;) (I've taken my fair share of buses and commute via trains from south Brooklyn to south Manhattan 5 days a week.)

To be fair though, trains do run pretty close to ever 8-10 minutes during daytime and slow down to 20-30 minutes at night. That's the train's schedule afaik and they are pretty good at keeping it.

4 years ago, Facebook only allowed uni e-mail addresses to register. It was MySpace, but cooler, it was the thing college kids did. NOW, it's a MySpace clone.

Your link talks about how gamestop and ebgames (and the like) benefit from it, since they get to buy games for 20 USD and sell them back at 40USD where a new game costs 60USD. This is the same scheme that college bookstores use. The article doesn't mention anything about people selling directly to people.

I meant 24/7 type monitoring ... ie: some system bites the dust, etc.

I have to ask, who will be monitoring and supporting this architecture?
