It's not the Last NASA space walk... It's the last space walk from the Space Shuttle..... I expect better from CmdTaco....

We don't have jobs for the Engineers we already have, many myself included can not find a job in our fields.

Why go to school to be come an Engineer when you will not have a job waiting for you?

We need to create Job's for the Engineers, stop importing Engineer for jobs or having them move over seas.

Fix out trade agreements so we are not competing against slave labor.....
Fix the hole in our borders....

Maybe I am wrong, but why can not 3D HD TV be done through the new Wii it's self on non 3D TV's?

As for that why can not a normal LCD HD TV be upgraded to 3D with a external box, or why do they no offer it in the DVD/Blue ray players?

I know 3D TV merely a gimmick to keep the price of HD TV's higher for a few dollars worth of extra components.

I became the same way, paying outrageous prices just to watch a few channels.

I found that now that over the air TV is digital many of my old channels have multiple options from 24 hour weather, movies, classic TV shows, etc.
I can locally pick up over 20+ HD channels free.

I also found that Netflix fills the void for movies and TV shows that I once watched on cable/sat.

Even my kids, watch Netflix, Youtube for their shows.

How about post a chart that is back up in facts, anyone can produce a graph chart.

While I did not agree with everything Bush or Republicans did, to blame them alone shows lack of any real thought and shows your just a blind Democratic party supporter.

Here are some facts as to how we got to where we are today:

Democrat's ignored Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac, when Bush came into office he wanted more over site of them. Democrats block any attempt at taken any action on those Government set up Mortgage company's.

Obama has increased spending 4X what we are taken in via Taxes. And Republicans are Evil for trying to get a handle on it.

I not sure what planet you live on, but Obama care is not going to save any lives. More people are going to die under it, do to health care rationing. Just go back and look up Obama speaking on his idea of heath care, old people should be given a pill to make them feel better until they die. Not worth spending money to keep them alive.

Last time I checked there are not people laying all over the streets dieing under our current health care system. But it does not mean we do not need to do something about health care cost, but Obama care does not address that.

I had similar thoughts of using a cell phone that way.

With the increase in storage space and shrinking on size of memory and hard drives. You could carry around all your documents and e-mails on your cell phone.

When home you dock your cell phone, the phone is charged and all your data is synced with docking station, which would house a larger hard drive and other devices like CD/DVD burner, printers.

The have the ability to use a monitor, keyboard and mouse when your not out on the road and use full screen app's.

When the cell phone app's let you access the data in a format suited for the cell phone.

Sounds like you don't understand economics and the current economic situation!

It is big Government that has put us in to high unemployment rates and debt, not capitalism or the idea of trickle down.

Example of trickle down economics.

Joe the plumber is getting more calls then he can handle, so he hires a employee.

What is the effect of that?

1. One less person unemployed.
2. Joe needs to buy a truck for him, add's to car/truck sales.
3. Joe must by tools, the tool makers sell their product.
4. Joe's new employee is now able to pay taxes, buy food, pay rent, etc.
5. Joe makes more money.

The same goes of a large Company, as they grow. They hire more people who in turn spend their money on things.

Like calling Joe the plumber to update their bath room or kitchen, buying a new car, etc.

First off the problem is that America does not have true Capitalism, you have Government allowed monopolies in many places that prevent competition. Plus you have regulations treat one provider of information vs. another... FCC rules on Cable vs. Phone lines vs. Cell

A large Company like AT&T/ Time warner, etc can lobby to get Government (FCC) to grant them things that their competition can not get or make it so a competitor can not enter their market.

Example: For a while the FCC force Ma Bell companies to sell access to last mile lines at their cost to maintain, while this was in effect you seen more Independent phone and DSL providers popping up. Now since that rule is no longer in effect, they raised the price so many of these providers could not compete. Now they the competition has been shut out, the cost of internet access has went up.

You want lower prices on cable/phone/internet, write you Congress person about making regulation fair across the board and open access again.

I think the left picked the word "Public option" for that reason, it send a misleading message that the People are in control of it. Which is not the case at all, it is in fact a Government run plan, the Government will choose what Health care you will be able to receive under it without any Public say. Just like when the Health care bill was rammed through Congress. So the usage by Fox News of Government Option is more correct, then the use of the term Public option? Both sides choose their words to promote their agenda.

No its people who take any News source at face value are stupid, Those who don't take the time to check other sources are stupid. Believe skewed left wing poll's poll are stupid or believe on face value they have the correct answers over the other guy. Just as stupid people watch NBC, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, and it's not limited to Fox News!

How about we first sending automated equipment to start harvesting water and air, for the future missions. We once we know that the sent systems can collect enough air and water for people, send test green houses that we can use with Mar's own soil to test growing food. I think we have the robotic/automation systems now that could do these functions or at least test out system first on Mar's.

In my state North Carolina, some machines have come up with all Democrats selected. As for Conspiracy theories: We all know that Rich White English speaking people vote Republican so makes since to press 1 for English get the Republican. We all know that illegals, the dead and brain dead vote Democrat so makes since to have press 2 for Spanish get the Democrat.

It does short of make you think about the Dalek suction cup.

I notice the story you posted, removed the part about that Bush put in Solar power to heat the pool and a out side building. So not the only solar power at the White House.

My first computer was Tandy 16K color computer, one of the contest in the old Rainbow Magazine was how much you could put in one line of basic code. Still great to see people be creative within a limited space of memory.
