They're there for their spelling text.

Allied invasion of Sicily, codenamed Operation Husky, was a major World War II campaign, ... began on the night of 9/10 July 1943, and ended on 17 August. Allied invasion of Italy was the Allied landing on mainland Italy on 3 September 1943. How much wronger can you be?

Are we talking about the same amazon.com. You traverse to 'Customer Reviews', click on "1-star", and there they all are. I usually have done my homework, so, when I want something, a source, of reviews that are not favorable, is nice to have. I can weight the 1-star reviews against my previous information. Usually, the "I'll never by a ... again" are dismissed outright (too comical). But a deluge of 1 and 2 stars is an adequate indicator of crap. Especially @ Newegg,

Nuff said!

To get the full story, and to put your Linux distro of choice in context, it might be weel and good to list the full progession.

For me it was:
Mainframe, PLC
Trash 80
IBM PC running DOS 2 through 6
OS/2 V. 1.2 through Warp 4
Redhat 4.2 though 9
Fedora 1 through 14/Gnome
Fedora 17/XFCE

Also run various flavors of Ubunto and Centos concurrent with the Fedora loop.

I have not been able to glean what open source licence this project used, but for sure it was not the GPL. But THIS TYPE of misappropriation of code is the reason the GPL ought to be used for any kind of community project like this.

If you use an open source licence that allows the code to be taken and closed then don't cry when others figure out how to profit from your work and deny you the fruits of your own frickin' labor.

OK, so why wouldn't any home user choose a free LibreOffice download over a $100/year msoffice subscription tax?

I don't know where the submitter or editor got his/her eclipse frequency info, but the chances of an eclipse occuring are equal for both hemispheres. If you look at a specific short enough time span, it may appear to favor one hemisphere over another, but the eclipse geometry is symmetrical. There are times that a total eclipse vs. an annular eclipse will favor one hemisphere over another because the distance of the earth from the sun varies, but over any reasonable time scale this will all average out.

Sure are a lot of options out there if you don't want to be tied to a contract. I got a new LG Alley phone for about $100 bucks on ebay, and signed up with page plus celluar. Cheap pay as you service, uses all the Verizon toweras, and I can do anything and load any browser I want.

Be flexible, but stand up to the man.

OT but pumping the brakes is not what people used to do before anti-lock brakes. Pumping the brakes is what you do when the brake system hydraulics are failing, and you need to build up fluid and pressure in the line so the pedal doesn't hit the floor when you want to stop. Pumping the brakes was made a thing of the past by dual brake system circuits. Not anti-lock brakes.
