I guess you learn something everyday... I didn't know that the MPAA were the keepers of the Internet and have the power to decide who can and can't access the internet.
I, for one, welcome our new Internet Overlords!
you wouldn't be reading Slashdot, and thus wouldn't be able to answer the question of "what would you do if you were there"...
By the penis is his pants...
I'll have you know that this "radio carbon dating" thing that says the Earth is 4.5 billion years old is off by a couple years. The Earth is actually 6000 years old. Its a proven fact, look it up in Genesis!
And we all know what happens when scientists try to mix science and religion... they just end up pissing the priests off, and you don't want to see what happens when a priest gets pissed off... he takes it out on poor little Timmy, the church Alter Boy in a way that we don't want to see.
Kudos to Steve. We don't need people jerking off in public dammit. Go home and jerk off at your computer for a change.
You can travel anywhere in Canada... just don't head south of the 49th.
Umm is that the American definition of 1 trillion and 1 billion (1x10^12, 1x10^9 respectively) or the British definition of 1 trillion and 1 billion (1x10^18, 1x10^12 respectively)?
This could be the difference between ground breaking research and a black hole that swallows us up. Remember the infamous Mars probe that crashed because NASA couldn't convert betweem the Imperial and SI systems.
Nope, its Canadian football fields -- 150 yards (including endzones) x 65 yards wide. We're all screwed! Damn Canadians!!!!!
As a resident of Canada who has faithfully obtained the seasonal influenza vaccination nearly every year for the last 5 years, and the son of someone who works in the our provincial healthcare field, let me raise the following points about this study and the way vaccinations work in Canada, because it is entirely different that in the US or perhaps other areas of the world.
In Canada, it can be rather difficult to obtain the season influenza vaccination, since there tends to be a shortage every year. This means that people who are in at risk groups receive it first. These high risk groups include 1. Canadians aged 65 and over, 2. People with immunodeficiency diseases such as AIDS, HIV, etc., 3. People with diseases such as cancer, and 4. People with chronic conditions/diseases such as asthma, etc.
Canadians under the age of 65 with normal immune systems, and no diseases do not as easy access to seasonal influenza. I find it exceedingly hard to believe that he sample space is 12 million people as there are only 33 million Canadians. You can't tell me that an combined number of 12 million Canadians have received the seasonal influenza vaccination and/or received swine flu to allow this study to be possible. I propose the following reasons for people who received the vaccination are twice as likely are for the same reasons some people in Canada get "first dibs" on getting the vaccination in the first place.
About 10 years ago I saw someone trying to steal a taxi, so I tried calling 911. My old Audiovox POS phone wouldn't allow me to dial 911. Kept telling me that emergency calls are disabled.
Can you put this acoustic black hole around my girlfriend so I don't have to listen to her bitch at me anymore?
The new 2011 Hummer now comes with happy ending!
The solution of this problem is trivial and is left as an exercise for the reader.
