That isn't what they want to do here. What they want to do is become the prime retailer for a set of products that people start buying at certain stages in their lives. Like how Gillette will send out free razors to people when the turn 18 to try and make them Gillette consumers for their life's supply of shaving products. Target here is trying to predict people who are pregnant and have reached the stage where they are ready to buy the associated baby products and providing incentives for these people to buy the products at Target. Then, the customers will be predisposed to continue buying these products at Target.

They aren't trying to convince them to buy products they don't need, they are trying to convince them to buy a new range of products that they will need or want to buy from a specific retailer.

Well, they can finally get to the south side of campus, the new petascale building is by Lot E14.

The worst thing about this summary is that it attempts to link Rossi to the far more legitimate research being conducted by NASA. The linked NASA materials make no reference to Rossi from what I can find. But it is this repeated implied associations that Rossi relies on to get people to buy in on what only screams snakeoil.

Where's the all of the above option here...

You check to see whether or not it looks more habitable than New Jersey.

The transistor was developed in 1947. If you're going to say that the transistor was invented in 1925 then you should also say that graphene was invented 1962. It wasn't until the late forties that they actually created a transistor just like it wasn't until 7 years ago that graphene was actually created.

BSNES would make a supercomputer beg for mercy. The author of the program even wrote an article entitled, "Why Perfect Hardware SNES Emulation Requires a 3GHz CPU." Just use SNES9X as it is pretty efficient and it doesn't suffer from some of the... errors... that the BSNES author harps on again and again in his defense of BSNES.

I don't know about you, but I don't buy my speaker equipment using gold, I use USD (when in the proper country). If we look at the change in the strength of the dollar due to inflation, the price in 2011 is only 3.5 times the 1978 price. ($4571.35). So it's actually cheaper than the current flagship model. Seriously, given that the rate of inflation is usually around 4% on average, do you really think that after 33 years the dollar would drop to a seventh of its value?

Not that I totally trust the above but if we allow 4% constant inflation it's not too far off.

You read the article! No fair!

Commies, or Communists, come in many dastardly forms. They include:

1. Pinko.
2. Bolshevik.
3. Russian.
4. Chinese.
5. Cuban.
6. Canadian.
7. European.
8. Anyone of differing opinion.

God help us if anyone of the above manage to infiltrate the US and spread their Communist creed.

"What, sir? You would make a ship sail against the wind and currents by lighting a bonfire under her decks? I pray you excuse me. I have no time to listen to such nonsense."

Bonus points to those that read this in Leonard Nimoy's voice.

You're lucky. I don't even have a bath or a shower. My bathroom is the shower. I have a shower head and drain next to the toilet.

Ugggg... this just drives home the latest statistic that I heard. The housing prices here in Hong Kong have increased 70% in the last two years. Unfortunately these kinds of modifications and specialized furniture usually cost an arm and a leg. Well, the most economical space saving design I've done is to import a Kindle. Lord knows I can't afford the give up anymore space to books.

That's typical Hong Kong. What you see on the exterior is not what you will get on the interior. A lot of the buildings are easily 40 years old but they are built of concrete and tiled exteriors. So there isn't much wear on the buildings and people will renovate the interiors to a rather impressive degree as you see in this video. There are a lot of new housing developments of course but you have to be very wealthy to afford them. If you want to see some of the actual seedy ways of living in Hong Kong, take a look at the wire cage living spaces or the Kowloon Walled City (which is gone now but there just isn't anything like it).

I can't believe the crap that gets put up here these days. None of the poll choices make sense because I know for a fact that I'm mostly phlogiston. Yellow bile indeed.
