Comment: arsenic and children - personal story (Score 1) 168

high levels of arsenic : my boy is still being evaluated, he came down with something ... best way to describe it is autism with a 6 week onset at 6 years old, but it's not autism, more ASD, it's hard to describe, but suffice to say horrible, and a very good team of doctors (Dr House style) keep ordering more tests, eliminating things, showing nothing. so far the best lead is he has elevated levels of arsenic. He was in Chile over Christmas, there are copper mines there creating high levels of arsenic and chromium in the drinking water, enough so downstream the shellfish are not completely converting the inorganic arsenic into organic, and both, sad to say, are completely under-studied, especially in children.

There is one other kid who was in chile over christmas with the same symptoms, treated in a different medical center, nothing yet.

*sigh*

We don't know yet, it's only correlation.

Have a nice life

wait, so i find a hundred dollar bill on the floor of a bar. I look around, ask people near by, did you drop this? I wait, see if anyone is checking for the bill. I'm supposed to give it to the bartender, or go to the nearest police station to turn it in?

seriously, people. I'm kinda shocked so many people are crying 'thief!'

The llama is correct and that is pretty much how it went down. The issue is 'reasonable attempt' and so long as they define reasonable reasonably then that attempt was made this & will all be fine for everyone involved.

Apple is just throwing a hissy fit and do you have any doubt they leaned on the DA to get this thing rolling?

my email to Eolas:

I run a consulting company currently working on projects to enhance customer-interactivity with staff and entertainers at gentleman's clubs websites. I'm considering several avenues, some of which utilizes AJAX technologies in conjunction with plug-ins for rich media (notably flash but other plug-ins are under consideration). I'm extremely interested in licensing the intellectual property you own for this endeavor in advance of any serious development.

Additionally it would be helpful if I could have a clear picture of which technologies you currently own intellectual rights to so I can map appropriate alternative strategies for deployment in case we fail to come to terms on a licensing agreement for our websites to run fully-interactive embedded applications through the use of plug-ins and AJAX.

The project's initial scope is 11 club websites with a larger rollout possible in the future. I don't know if you require visitor information or just the number of website implementations, please let me know and I can provide additional information.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

I'm not sure this was a troll as modded - in case it wasn't, I'd like to say:
BeOS

I don't know how it would look today, but what I remember from the mid 90s is it was a freaking jet fighter compared to the sopwith camels of the day.

The only problem is it's really, really hard to get a new OS going. Even when you have a jet fighter and everyone else has biplanes, it's almost impossible (RIP Be, and Amiga) So, maybe what we need is a better iteration of what we have? Unless virtualization allows new in-roads for OSs that didn't exist before...

That feeling just came over me. -- Albert DeSalvo, the "Boston Strangler"
