I can guarantee he didn't think of them the same way they thought of him. Completely different philosophical and metaphysical underpinnings to the theology, Jesuits are anti-Islamics.

My question is, if ISIL, just for a second, isn't a CIA plant, what makes them think a few beheadings will STOP the bombings? Given the evil of American Secularism, it is far more likely to turn the Levant into tritonite than it is to stop anything at all.

Which is why environmentalists need to get on board with isolationists and localists about charging per-container-mile shipping taxes.

Crazy, isn't it?

Evidently, there is some unwritten law that states that Geolocation by IP address shall override any and all set preferences by the user on their device, and ignore any possibility that barring or redirecting the user makes no sense.

I get a version of this periodically on Spotify, where I'm informed that the particular album or single I'm looking at can't be played because it isn't licensed to my region. And of course there's the small matter of my being IP-blocked from Pandora Radio for the same reason.

I ran into a particularly nasty geolocation issue back in late 2012, when I was informed that I couldn't access my National Lottery account because they no longer believed that I was accessing it from the UK. Went back and forth between them and my ISP (VirginMedia), with each blaming the other for the problem.

I've also heard of situations where people have found the books on their Kindles vanishing because they're holidaying in an area where said books aren't licensed.

My point is that this "reward" sounds a heck of a lot like the tail end of This STTOS series.

And apparently, keep doing it for 1.3 million years....

The ones I was tracking did so about 3 miles.

Shoulder pads with big batteries and solar panels? Then we could all look like we come from the 24th century Romulan Empire!

All of which is greater than 11mph.....the speed of the automobile traffic in New York City.

Having said that, I used to drive a Honda Spree. I've *clocked* bicycles doing 30 in 25mph zones.

Average speed was 11mph to begin with. The bikes, able to weave between traffic at 30mph for a biker in shape, were not the limiting factor.

I thought it was going to be more like what other cities that have implemented bike lanes and routes have seen- fewer people in cars on the road.

No real comparable thing exists, and to expect it is to think in the MS single-microcomputer-on-every-desk mindset. We're networked and clouded these days, so every program is a server which can interact with any other program (or should be) and a single-lump tool is limited to its black box. In the Free/Open Source world, you can get full SQL DB's or NoSQL storage engines free-at-point-of-use, so why would you grab a single solution when you can pick the components which best fit your needs?

I think you've condemned your many clients to no scalability and little flexibility. When it comes to cope with larger numbers of records, more complicated business logic or increased concurrent access, there's nothing like Access in the Free/Open Source world because the big-boy DB's are free-at-point-of-use. You then have the freedom to implement a web UI or a GTK+ UI or a QT UI talking a standard protocol and standard DB query language, and with that comes the architectural freedom to divorce the back-end from the business logic from the user interface -- which makes maintenance and ongoing improvements easy.

It's a device that *receives* information without storing it and generates nothing...It's a cell phone that can't send.

Except, of course, you no longer can. You turned your entire body into red mist, remember? Talk about frustrating! They don't make a little blue pill for that!

My point was more that what the Washington Post puts out is libertine drivel, just like every other paper in the main stream media in America. It isn't conservative of any sort.
