Labor is a trivial cost and screwups and delays can kill productiviity. On a related note: Wouldn't you be happy to pay $5 more for an Apple product assembled in Detroit or anywhere else US engineers and workers are competing with the world?

I work for a clean-tech company that generates and reuses the ultra-pure water wet lines need for the manufacture of semiconductors, solar, disk drives and other high tech items. As importantly, not only the water is recycled, but as an integral part of our patented processes, production chemicals are recycled,and never leave the four walls of the fab. Fabs can use more than one thousand gallons of water per MINUTE. Water resources are growing scarce and have become a major constraint on available sites for new plants. Even worse, the toxic chemicals that get discharged can screw up everything for people downstream.. The irony is our point of use solutions can reduce costs compared to conventional technologies by 70%. We are growing fast, but the word needs to get out that there are better, more ethical ways, to produce the high tech goodies we all enjoy.

Aspirin may be grouped with other NSAIDS, but it is drug unto itself. Like many people I can take aspirin by the fistful if I need pain relief. I always take some everyday like a vitamin. Things to note... Aspirin does not harm the liver like acetaminophen The studies we are all discussing here show that individuals adjust to aspirin and develop a tolerance to any stomach/bleeding effects. Tylenol has spent hundreds of millions of dollars to convince folks that their NSAID ( which is the #1 cause of liver failure in the US) is superior to good old generic aspirin. Without ever demonstrating that Tylenol ( or other NSAIDS for that matter) have all of aspirin's benefits. Best of luck in your recovery,

The mechanism, at least for colon cancer is known. Aspirin is COX 2 inhibitor. Colon and other cancers have COX 2 receptors on their cell walls. See details at: http://modernrecovery.com/news/7-latest/11-aspirin-reduces-colon-cancer.html

Years ago, when I was a headhunter, I proposed a newly retired Marine Captain for a Lotus Notes assignment. I got a lot of pushback from both our client rep and the client simply because he was a vet. I told them to actually read his resume. He'd implemented Notes across the entire Marine Corp. They gave in and he excelled. The military is bigger than corporation. And some men and woman who've served are the best.

It's very difficult to intuit the right gesture if the screen response is slow. Which one worked? The iPod app always gets me double clicking, triple clicking, and swiping furioulsy at the album cover when a song is playing because I can't tell what's right to get it to flip. I'm sure everyone else in the world "knows" the rightngesture. How did the learn? Does anyone know of a source of "standard" gestures for OS4 apps?

No ads = less diverse content. There will be unintended consequences. If one person blocks ads then they're just a free-rider. If everyone does, the web will really suck. Sure, some sweet folks will continue to post hobby sites, just as in the golden days of yore. And non-profits will publish. And big corporate sales and propaganda sites. And the Government and lobbyists. (BTW: They're all selling you something, aren't they?) But most of what makes the web diverse and useful and free today will die if advertising is eliminated. You don't have to click, just like you don't have to listen or look at ads in conventional free media. I'm sure that is seen as a victory for some, but not me. Almost all the cool, independent sites will wither. Maybe a few rich kids can keep BoingBoing alive, but... What may happen is what I would do with my ad supported but still public-serving sites. Block the ads that enable me to give you content: No access to the site. You'll never know what you're missing.

My ancestor Dr JW Carhart is often credited with building and using the first automobile in Wisconsin in 1871. He actually used his 1,100 pound horseless buggy as a circuit-riding Methodist minister (he was also a medical doctor and physics professor). Some claim he won a $10,000 priize in the first organized steam powered race in 1878. His two cylindered coal fired "Car" covered 201 miles in a loop, starting and returning to Green Bay in 33 hours 27 minutes: exactly 6 smoking miles per hour.

If you've looked at the app, and think you can come even close to copying it quickly with a small team then contact me.

A CMS template app that approximates the Daily would be a winner...
