Hey, good point. If we could verify that hypothesis, it would strongly suggest life could exist on Enceladus or Europa. Otherwise, it still doesn't exclude the possibility.

I have seen way to many people with AVG installed with up to date definitions, and have viruses. I now suggest Avast as a free solution or even better pay for trendmicro or kaspersky.

Well, I’m currently looking at version 2.6.0, and the layers menu is a menu called Layer.

If you mean the layers dialog window, it’s normally docked in the “Layers, Channels, Paths, Undo” dialog window, and if that isn’t visible, you can open it from the Windows menu.

Um, yes...

He fudged the data, failed to get approval for the study, got blood samples from kids at his son's birthday party, had a conflict of interest (was working on a vaccine alternative), didn't get permission to do invasive tests on kids (lumbar punctures and colonoscopies, among others), only used 12 subjects, didn't get the hospital's permission for the study, was censured for ethical violations, lost his medical credentials, had his study retracted, and lost the support of even his co-authors.

But that's all beside the point-- the critical thing is that substantially larger and longer-running studies have consistently contradicted his findings.

1) Because their parents are also idiots.
2) Because no vaccine is 100% effective, the whole point is to try to prevent the disease from getting a foothold. But once someone has the full-blown disease and is exposing everyone around them to it, the system begins to fail.

In case 2, it's unlikely all the kids would actually get the flu. But some might, even if vaccinated. And then those sick kids might infect some others, even if vaccinated.

That's why these stupid fuckers are so dangerous -- not so much those who don't vaccinate for the flu, but those who avoid the serious ones. Herd immunity is what truly makes vaccines effective, but it requires that nearly everyone participate. And these morons obviously have no freaking clue of the horrible diseases they're allowing to return just because they're scared of an incredibly tiny chance that these things cause a tiny increase in autism rates.

The world is not a better place after your comment, neither more enlightened nor amused.

Please note, everyone, it does not help the world or you to post simply because you have feelings you need to vent. Please make your communication constructive. And vent your feelings to your teddy bear.

My house is full of windows. It's not full of silicon dust.

I don't think it's that simple, since I left unchanged all the HTML inside the article proper, including the pie chart image; all I removed was the CSS and scripts and some superfluous container tags. The browsers that couldn't print it weren't just some browsers, they were Firefox 3.5.7 and IE 8.

I'm not yet convinced that it wasn't intentional.

The Space Key!

Ignorance of the law is not an excuse, but ignorance of fact is. Copying something not realizing that it's copyrighted is not willful infringement, and the damages are limited. That's why corporations are nice enough to send takedown letters instead of just suing - to inform the defendant and potentially magnify the damages.

Actually... the claim is that it's not stealing because they still have it after you copy it. Otherwise, your post is spot on.

It's a compromise in some ways and a huge improvement in others. I'd happily take the hit on power consumption if it meant doing away with wretchedly slow and disconcerting e-ink screen refreshes and having a device that could be flipped between bookreader and a usable colour tablet / netbook. I expect that any tablet / netbook that featured a specialized book reading mode (mono pixel qi mode + powerstepping) would be quite capable of squeezing 15-20 hours of battery life between charges.

Even if these screens (or the iPad) means little to you, they will still have a benefit for e-ink consumers. The prices of e-ink devices is going to have to fall considerably to maintain their niche which is good for everyone.

If it has mini HDMI to plug into a bigger screen, 11" built in screen is too big (unless it is foldable). Personally, I want a keyboard, but I think there might be a market for one with just touch screen. Price needs to be below $300. If you can get it below $200, it is a game changer. It seems that all of the manufacturers introduce cheap machines then try to leverage that to higher priced machine.

Whatever "that" is,....

The "that" is crucial. What is "that"? How many subscribers who don't call to complain about the coverage, signal strength in mW, # of city blocks w/ coverage?
Also,
Is it a linear axis or log, or some other scale? Does it start at zero at the bottom, or some other number?
