Yeah, but once Hollywood is done with it the series will be called Gotham Junior High...

Some exec at the WB requested almost exactly this in the late '90s after Batman:TAS ended -- they wanted a show with Bruce Wayne and most of Batman's rogues galley as high school students. Apparently it was bandied around for a while and eventually split into two separate ideas, an animated show about a teen Batman and a live action show about a fledging superhero in high school. These became "Batman Beyond" and "Smallville", respectively.

As long as a lawyer has not been beheaded/disbarred it will keep finding ways to troll.

My vote is for "beheaded" in this case.

Seriously, I have to ask: Which part of "Love your neighbor as yourself" was unclear?

Yes, the U.S. Constitution says you're allowed to do your picketing. However, it doesn't require me to listen to you, or see you as anything other than a bunch of sad, deluded, hate-filled little nut-bars.

It's pining for the fjords!

And here I thought it was pining for the fnords...

No, this is an NSF Petascale "Track 2" project like TACC's earlier Ranger system or NICS' Kraken system, whereas Blue Waters was/is the NSF Petascale "Track 1" project. Same basic idea, slightly different pots of money.

(Disclaimer: I work for NICS.)

Barnes & Noble, which paid almost $14 million for Borders' intellectual assets (including customer information) at auction last week, said it should not have to comply with certain customer-privacy standards recommended by a third-party ombudsman.

In unrelated news, I say customers should not buy anything from Barnes and Noble ever again.

You'd think that, but a lot of HPC software gets priced either by-core or by-socket...
