Much has changed for NAHJ in the week since the incident. On August 4, board elections brought in a new president, Hugo Balta, who made sure that NAHJ's live tweeting policy was on the agenda of his first meeting as president that same day. (Salcedo did not run.) After about 45 minutes of discussion, Balta told CJR, the board voted 6-5 to repeal the live tweeting ban. He personally was in favor of lifting the ban. "I first get all of my news and information through my smartphone," he said. A board that wants to ban one of the most popular forms of spreading information these days, Balta added, "does not realize that people do not consume news and information the way they used to. Not just 15 years ago, but three to five years ago."
To demonstrate, Balta took to social media to announce the ban repeal, announcing it from his personal Twitter account.
And Khan, the student who kicked off the furor that led to the policy change, said she learned more than she expected from her work at UNITY. "Everything I learned in my classes I actually experienced in real life," she said.

Deputies Help Deer With Doritos Bag Stuck On Its Head
By editor
Good morning, I'm Renee Montagne.
Key deer in Florida are an endangered species. Their diet includes leaves and berries - definitely not Doritos - which does not mean a deer can't get cravings. Sheriff's deputies on patrol in the Florida Keys spotted one on the side of the road, with an empty bag of Doritos stuck on its head. It must have wanted the last chip in the bottom, a deputy told the South Florida Sun Sentinel. The deer stood calmly as the deputies removed the bag.

Hi all, just joined this group.
I'm a big fan of Single Player games, and I love the challenge of creating a world and environment that players won't want to leave.
Hello to everyone. I'm trying to assemble a small team for a S-P Horror mod, and I was wondering if this group would be a good place to start.
More information about the mod you can find here Moddb.com
Hi dudes, Respect to everyone. I`m with ya now.
Hello. I'm trying to assemble a small team for a S-P Horror mod, and I was wondering if this group would be a good place to start.
welcom, and ofcourse is this a good place for you to start.
but let me first apolotiace to everyone who did comment here lately without receeving any comment of us. to be honest, i personaly forgot all about this here. not that i think it isn't importent anymore. but as some of you maybe does know have we been working the last 3+ years very hard on our latest HL2 sp-mod called Strider Mountain, (should you never have heart of it then please look on our site StriderMountain.com or check the mod out here on Moddb. we did release it a few months ago and have updated it 3 times to fix some of the latest small bugs.
after that we all needed a rest, but i always need to map something, (am a (sp-)mapper junkie, lol). so in the mean time have i been working on my latest Hl2 sp project. the working title is for now Final Horror, but i am stronly thinking about changing the name in to Final Project. this mainly because the horror isn't as much of importance as i first thought it would be when i started this small project. it will have 7 sp-maps, and i am now working on map6. map7 is mostly done so it looks like you can expect this latest Hl2 sp- project of mine in about a month or so.
Final project is the last HL2 map/modding project that i will be making. no, i will not stop mapping. but i will stop with HL2. HL2 is a great game, but after 40+ sp-maps in about 5 years or so i have made what i wanted to make with HL2. and, lets be honest, by now HL2 is starting to get quit old.
it's simply time to move on to newer games.
still, this site that we have here about sp player modders will keep going on because like i said. we will keep going on with newer games.
My group develops mods & adventures for The Witcher, absolutely single-player RPG. We've got 3 released projects. We're working on next 3 - will be shown as TBD soon. And we're planning to reveal the forth, really big project next month ;]
All adventures will be available with several localizations.

Arizona is entitled to demand that people present identification before being allowed to cast a ballot, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Tuesday.
In a split decision, the judges rejected arguments that mandating would-be voters show a driver's license or other identification unfairly discriminates against Latino voters. Judge Sandra Ikuta, writing for the majority, said while challengers made that claim they failed to present any credible evidence.
The court also brushed aside arguments that the requirement to provide identification, approved by voters in 2004, amounts to a poll tax.
But the judges said the state cannot strictly enforce another provision in that 2004 initiative which requires anyone who wants to register to vote to first provide acceptable proof of citizenship.
Ikuta pointed out that Congress mandated creation of a specific form designed to allow individuals to register to vote by mail. That form does not include a proof-of-citizenship requirement.
What that means, the judge said, is Arizona election officials have to register those people who sign up using that federal form, even if they do not provide the state-mandated identification.
Arizona remains free, however, to continue to demand proof of citizenship from those who go to state offices and register using a state-provided form.
Tuesday's decision allowing officials to mandate ID at the polls was not unanimous.
Judge Harry Pregerson recited what he said is a long history of state-sanctioned discrimination against Latinos. He said this could be seen as just another form.
"History has also shown that when a Latino voter approaches the polling place but is stopped by a person perceived to be an authority figure checking for identification, there's something intimidating about that experience that evokes fear of discrimination," Pregerson wrote. "That intimidation has the effect of keeping Latino voters away from the polls."
While the court upheld the voter ID language, Nina Perales, an attorney with the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, said she sees the rest of it as a victory. She said it "vindicates all the U.S. citizens who were improperly rejected for voter registration" in the state.
"Arizona may no longer flaunt federal laws in voter registration, particularly in a manner that discriminates against newly naturalized citizens," Perales said.
But Attorney General Tom Horne, who argued the case personally last year in California, said this is not the last word.
"We always expected the U.S. Supreme Court to have to decide this one," he said. "The people of Arizona have a right to request that people registering to vote show some evidence they are citizens."
That part of the ruling that Horne wants to appeal, however, may have little practical effect.
Chris Roads, the deputy Pima County recorder, said his office gets only one or two voter registration requests a month using the federal form. So far, in compliance with the 2004 law, they have been rejected if they do not also include proof of citizenship.
Roads said most registrations come through the state's EZ Voter website. There, anyone who already has a state driver's license issued after October 1996 — when proof of legal presence was required to get a license — can register to vote online.
But Perales told the court last year that in the first 2 1/2 years after the requirement was implemented, more than 31,000 people were denied registration because they did not provide the proof the state wants. Perales acknowledged, though, she could not say how many of those people were actually eligible.
At the heart of the multi-year legal fight is Proposition 200, that 2004 ballot measure, the first of a series of Arizona measures aimed at illegal immigrants.
That law was designed mainly to preclude those not in the country from getting public benefits. But it also included the two changes in voting laws that supporters said were necessary to ensure that only those entitled to cast a ballot would affect the outcome of elections.
Horne argued that the citizenship proof requirement was designed to prevent fraud.
"If there is voter fraud, then honest voters can lose faith in the democratic system," he told the appellate judges. "And that can decrease participation by eligible voters."
But they pointed out that Congress directed the Election Assistance Commission to create a standard federal voter registration form.
Judge Marsha Berzon said the commission concluded proof of citizenship was unnecessary, citing a requirement to sign an avowal of citizenship, coupled with the threat of federal prosecution. And federal law requires Arizona — and all other states — to accept and use the federal form.
Pregerson, in urging colleagues to strike the ID requirement to cast a ballot, said the state's history makes any move that would seem to burden minority voters suspect.
For example, he said Arizona voters in territorial days passed a literacy law test that he said "explicitly targeted Mexicans and disqualified non-English speakers from voting" in state elections.
"As late as the 1960s, these literacy requirements were a precondition for voting in Arizona," Pregerson wrote.
He also noted the Arizona constitution restricted non-citizens from working on public projects, with the 1914 Legislature mandating that 80 percent of employees in any firm with five or more workers had to be "native-born citizens of the United States."
And Pregerson cited segregation in movie theaters, public parks and pools.
"A particularly notorious example of this segregation occurred in Tempe, where Latinos were only permitted to use the public swimming pool the day before the pool was drained," he said.
All that, coupled with socioeconomic disparities between Latinos and Anglos as well as racially polarized voting "establish that Proposition 200's polling place provision results in discrimination on account of race," the judge said.

Mark Nook might've been the last of four Montana State University Billings chancellor candidates to visit the campus in April, but he finished at the top of the list on Tuesday when he was tapped to lead Montana's third-largest university.
"This is very exciting, for my wife and I both," Nook said. "We're delighted to be joining the Montana State University system."
Currently the senior vice president for academic and student affairs for the University of Wisconsin System in Madison, Nook accepted the MSUB chancellor position on Tuesday morning — offered by MSU President Waded Cruzado — after a months-long national search by an 18-person committee. He begins on July 1.
He said on Wednesday that leading a university fulfills a passion he gained as a college undergraduate at Southwest Minnesota State University.
"When I was a student, I went to college to study physics but didn't know what I wanted to do with it," Nook said. "I just fell in love with the college environment. Whatever it is, there's just this exchange of ideas and thoughts and I've continued to appreciate that as a faculty member and on campuses."
He earned bachelor's degrees in physics and mathematics from SMSU, a master's in astrophysics from Iowa State University and a doctorate in astronomy from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
He's worked much of his professional career in higher education, including as a professor, research assistant, department chair, dean, provost and vice chancellor, all at universities in the Midwest.
Part of the appeal of seeking out and eventually accepting the chancellor job was a desire to have more face-to-face interaction with the people around him combined with MSUB's smaller size, which nook said allows more contact with faculty, staff and students.
"I really want to get back to being able to work with the faculty and the staff," Nook said. "I've had some opportunity (to meet them at MSUB) and I'm really looking forward to doing a great deal more. They're very engaged."
The Wisconsin system has about 181,000 students, while about 5,000 attend MSUB.
Nook plans to move to Billings with his wife, Cheryl, and hit the ground with as much momentum as he can. He said his first step will be learning about a university and city to which he hasn't had much exposure.
"The first thing that's going to be really important for me to do is to listen and learn," he said. "I've got a lot to learn about this university and how it operates, I've got a lot of people on campus and throughout the community to meet. I need to build relationships so that I can do all of the things that a chancellor is asked to do."
Coming into the position, Nook said he knows there'll be challenges and he's already zeroed in on a few to work on immediately, including finding ways to fund the university as state and federal resources either remain stagnant or dwindle.
"We've got to make sure that we get the financing and how we fund the university," he said. "And I think we need to take a close look at some of the student success measures, like retention."
Nook replaces Rolf Groseth, who retired as chancellor following MSUB's May 3 commencement after three years on the job and nearly 40 working in the Montana University System.
Before Nook can begin, the MUS Board of Regents must approve his appointment during a vote scheduled for May 23.

Some applications are easier to classify than others. For example, OpenOffice.org Writer falls neatly under the word processor category, whereas GIMP is a classic example of an image editor. But some applications can be tricky to categorize -- case in point: TreeLine.

I learned something while looking over the spec sheet on the John Cooper Words Clubman - that it's actually possible to spec out a Mini that has a list price of more than $40,000. That the example we tested costs "only" $33,000 doesn't really make it seem like a bargain, because one of the things that is appealing about the Mini brand is that you can get BMW-like performance and small-car economy at a fairly reasonable price. Once you breach the $30,000 barrier, you're running up against the BMW 1-series.
Having said all that, I still enjoyed driving the Mini Clubman, although I have some of the same complaints I had with our Four Seasons Cooper S, such as its absurdly large speedometer and oddly placed window controls. The Clubman's 207-hp turbocharged engine is very willing to perform but results in lots of torque steer under hard acceleration, and the ultra-stiff suspension means that you feel every bump and slight surface variation in the road. On the positive side of the ledger, the JCW Clubman exhibits an enticing combination of small-car agility and racing-bred technology. Plus, the Clubman gives you some added practicality with the extra room over the Mini Cooper.

non-Euclidean geometry
non-Euclidean geometry
Any theory of the nature of geometric space differing from the traditional view held since Euclid's time. These geometries arose in the 19th century when several mathematicians working independently explored the possibility of rejecting Euclid's parallel postulate. Different assumptions about how many lines through a point not on a given line could be parallel to that line resulted in hyperbolic geometry and elliptic geometry. Mathematicians were forced to abandon the idea of a single correct geometry; it became their task not to discover mathematical systems but to create them by selecting consistent axioms and studying the theorems that could be derived from them. The development of these alternative geometries had a profound impact on the notion of space and paved the way for the theory of relativity. See also Nikolay Lobachevsky, Bernhard Riemann.

Rescuers: 2 dogs shot in the head at SC landfillCHESTERFIELD, S.C. (AP) — Animal rescuers in South Carolina say they have found two dogs shot in the head and buried at a landfill, and they suspect there may be many more. Whitney Knowlton, founder of Last Chance Animal Rescue Fund, said Saturday that the two dogs were found at the landfill the day before. She says rescuers believe that the dogs were from the county-run shelter and that they were shot by animal control officers. Chesterfield County Sheriff Sam Parker told WSOC-TV, which first reported the story, that his office is investigating. A message left with a dispatcher for the sheriff's office by The Associated Press was not immediately returned Saturday morning. Knowlton says rescuers who regularly work with the shelter in Chesterfield, S.C., were first tipped off by an inmate working there. |

I think it's a lovely plant. You get to decide if it stays in your yard or not. If it has culinary or medicinal uses, or pleases your eye, it seems like a sad bill of goods to be told it's a weed. A former neighbor used to pull up plants I'd grown from seed, saying she'd helped me do some weeding while I was at work. Just because they sell them at the store didn't make them NOT weeds to her. After she was gone, an Azalea hedge sprung up in her yard. I'd always wondered what the shrubbery she was constantly mangling was. Guess she thought those were weeds too... but definitely proof that one tiny really old lady can pull/control anything she doesn't want growing! But in all seriousness, if all Commelina species are not edible, know there are many that look extremely similar. |

46.9 Million Mosquito Nets Distributed: Nigeria
National Coordinator for the Malaria Eradication Program Chioma Amajoh told reporters Monday that the number showed that the country had distributed over 70 percent of all the nets needed in the western African nation.
She said in order to sustain the programme, the country would need a pool of experts in the states to monitor the use of the nets after distribution, reported Xinhua.
Amajoh said malaria prevalence in the country had gone down.
She said the recent survey showed that 42 percent of households in the country now owned the LLITN compared to 2 percent in 2003.

I don't like cloud computing. It's 'My Data" on "Not My Machine"
Before Local Cloud:
I have a bunch of machines
and a nerd who herds them.
I am his boss,
I control him.
I own my data.
I have to pay to replace broken machines.
After Local Cloud Computing:
I have a bunch of machine
and a nerd to herd them
but he doesn't report to me-
I can't control him.
He owns my data
Part of the Fee is insurance to fix machines that Might break.
Another Thought on Cloud computing.
Andie's Company outsources to Clyde's Clouds. Andi has medical information.
Bob's Company outsources to Clyde's Clouds. Bob runs a marketing company.
Edward the Evil Haxorz hacks Clyde's clouds and steals Andie's medical information.
HIPAA burys Clyde's Clouds in fines. Clyde flees the country.
Where is Bob's Data?
A bill of rights.
Article 1
As an ISP you may carry packets or provide content/services not both.
To avoid the temptation to throttle your competitor's service
Article 2
You may not inspect the packets in any way. Not for content. Not for type. Not for Address.
All packets are equal, It does not matter where they go, or what they are for.
Article 3
You may charge according to bandwidth but you must provide the promised bandwidth for the price.
This allows for competition.
The best solution, I think, would be to charge for packets per minute. each minute the ISP would handle the number of packets promised for you then drop the rest. At the end of the minute your account is charged the current fee. If you pay a low fee and only get 1000 packets a minute (344 mb/sec divided between up and down).
In fact the ISP could have a preference setting that lets you change the number of packets/price as you desire. Need to download that Linux ISO? Kick up your "packets per minute" to a higher rate.
With this sort of plan there are no "ohoh used up my bandwidth for the month on the 15th" or "Oh oh look at the bill - I must have went over my bandwidth limit." moments to deal with.
Article 4
This will be the extent of any law regarding Net Neutrality.
No giving government that nose under the tent to start it's own censorship. Remember no inspecting of packets at all. Not for content. Not for address.
Perhaps we don't need article 1 if article 2 is rigorously enforced.
A poster CKWop gets the privacy point just right!
"People often retort by saying "I have nothing to hide, so I don't care if they collect the data". Yes, I'm sure the Jews had nothing to hide from the government in 1920s. Only ten years later, their census data was being used to round them up and murder them."
1) Trusted Computing - BAD
Trusted computing will destroy the ability of the "little guy" to enter the software market. It will remove the ability from the rest of us to write and enjoy our own software, or gift software from others.
Some of the implications of trusted computing and email and documents are chilling, including a 1984 type ability to "dissapear" other people's documents.
Unfortunatly Trusted computing may be a reaction to copyright violation, or copyright violation may be a convenient excuse. Either way Its comming and it will ruin computers for those of us who program.
Copyright Violation
I think it's ok to move music to new media for your own personal use. Where the trouble begins is where music is shared.
I belive one should abide by the restrictions one agrees to when one obtains a performance. If one agrees not to copy then one should not copy.
Some artists don't mind if you give away thier work, the Greatful Dead for instance, others do.
I also think the use of the labels "Pirate" and "Thief" don't help the discussion, unfortunatly "Copyright Violator" is too long and cumbersome.
Pop Up Adds (and pop behind adds and...)
Ok we asked for these when we insisted on blocking banner adds. I for one would rather have the banner adds. (Well not the blinking flashing ones)
I think spam should not be illegal, but it should be more highly regulated. Spam should be easily filtered and should be marked as to subject. After all at some time I may want to re-finance my home, sometimes not. I wouldn't mind spam at all if I could filter for things I am looking for and filter out uninteresting things.
Each spam should, by law have the following things: and actuall actionable address for the sender, and for the business advertised, and a correct filterable subject.
People reciving Spam missing any of these thing should be able to sue both the sender and the business for a very large sum. A print out of the offending spam-mail should be all that's needed.
And the right to sue should be transferable, If I get a spam that's actionable I should be able to donate the spam to EFF who would then sue in my behalf.
Comments are enabled.
To send an email I have to have money in my stamp box. I get that money by paying the post office for e-postage. They give me a code which I enter into my email program.
When I send email each item takes a few cents from the stamp box, calls the post office computer to get a "stamp", they agree on the ammount and the stamp is put in the header of my mail.
I fire up my email client, it gets my mail, extracts the "stamps" verifies them with the computer at the post office which "cancels" them. Any mail with no stamp goes in a bucket for a few days (User preference) and is then either trashed or sent back to the sender with "NO STAMP -Not Read by recipient", The email would explain how to get a client for the new system. If the email is sent back it may be reflected by the recieving system- this is detected and the returned email is just trashed to avoid loops
Mail sent with a fake stamp would be fraud, counterfieting but would be treated as mail with no stamp by the mail client
If an email does have a stamp - half the value goes into my stamp box, the other half goes to the post office for the use of their computer. (yes the post office makes a bit to sell the stamp and makes a bit when I read the mail)
I could also have a whitelist - when email is recieved from someone on my whitelist it is placed in my inbox and the post office is not bothered. The whole value of the stamp is (A- returned to sender or B- retained in my stamp box which do you think would be safer for fraud?)
For the tinfoil chapeu crowd - If the sender is on my white list the Post office is not notified at all and the email is as secure as email is today. If not well I suppose the post office could figgure out from canceled stamps who is sending email to whom.

I honestly think The Baby-Sitters Club movie is one of the greatest films of all time. You may laugh, but consider the following points:
The first time we see Claudia in The Baby-Sitters Club movie she's making a mobile out of forks. Like, what? How was she possibly so deeply awesome at just fifteen?
The reason I'm still obsessed with this movie (despite being in my twenties) likely has a lot to do with how formative The Baby-Sitters Club series (BSC, if you will) was to my upbringing. Before I could even read, my mom would read the series to me out loud, and I was a huge fan of the short-lived series on The Disney Channel. As I got older, and was able to read without the help of my mom, I still gravitated towards the series, especially to the character of Claudia.
Claudia was the first fictional character I felt "got" me. She was like the cool older sister—or, perhaps more aptly, the cool older babysitter—I never had. She wasn't very good in school, except when it came to art class (I wasn't very good in school, except when it came to English class). Her older sibling , Janine, was a genius, not unlike my big brother, who I suspect could have gotten As in his sleep. Claudia's closest confidant (aside from the BSC ladies, duh) was her grandmother, Mimi. Their relationship always reminded me of my relationship with my own grandmother, Marilyn. OH, she was also the first one of her friends to get a landline, as was yours truly. I just thought she was the coolest. I mean, I even had the Claudia Kishi doll.
Nowadays, I recognize what a sartorial goddess Claudia was. Here are some of my favorite outfits Ms. Kishi wore:
The sleeves on this black dress. Need I say more?
The white Keds, the knotted-shirt. Claudia Kishi, man.
Alright, so I think this might be my favorite Claudia outfit of all time. The boots, the denim-on-denim, and is that a statement necklace I see tucked under a buttoned up shirt?! Talk about being ahead of the times.
Just look at the dichotomy between Claudia and "Mean Janine." I love Claudia's printed sweater, as well as her earrings (which I can assume she made herself).
Please tell me—was Claudia as influential for you as she was for me?

A miracle has emerged from the tragic shooting spree in Colorado. One of the victims who was shot in the head is making an amazing recovery, and her pastor is giving glory to God.
Petra Anderson was hit four times by buckshot in the Aurora mall movie theater. Her pastor, Brad Strait, reports on his blog that one bullet went through her nose and all the way through her brain before hitting the back of her head.
Doctors placed Anderson, 22, in intensive care, predicting the worst, including possible severe brain damage.
But when brain surgeons went in they found Anderson had a birth defect that allowed the bullet to pass all the way through her brain without causing much damage. She had an extra vein that created a tiny channel, and the bullet traveled right through it.
Pastor Strait attributes it to God's "prevenient grace," pointing out that God knows our future from the day we're born.
He writes that it's "God working ahead of time for a particular event in the future. It's just like the God I follow to plan the route of a bullet through a brain long before Batman ever rises."
Anderson is now beginning to recover and has even been able to talk.

Sure, the pink mare had been given a rather generous budget by Princess Celestia, but Twilight could tell that every bit was well spent. She had hired Vinyl Scratch to DJ the event, and managed to stock the bar with signature liquor from almost every city and town in Equestria: Appleloosan Brandy, cider from Ponyville, whisky from Dodge Junction, wine from Manehattan, mead from Whitetrot, port from Trottingham, rum from Baltimare, vodka from Stalliongrad, and even some ale from Thunder Neigh.She was almost too caught up in admiring Pinkie Pie's work to notice the voice from behind her."Twilight Sparkle, might we have a word in private?"Twilight turned around to see Princess Luna, Celestia's sister and Cadance's mother."Of course, Pr
Magical mystery cure - Alternate endingThey were happy. Happier than they'd been all day. The six mares embraced each other in the middle of the street, not wanting to let go of each other. Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and pinkie Pie. Six friends who had grown so close to each other, had now saved each other from a very miserable end. They had been through a very unpleasant ordeal recently as their cutie marks, the symbols of their roles and destinies, had been changed. But, thanks to Twilight and the bonds they'd forged with each other, they had undone that change and were back to normal.Twilight, right in the middle of the group hug, gave a long sigh of relief. She more than any of them had bared her share of pain throughout this time, mostly from the guilt she felt over her part in the event. For you see, it was her spell that had caused all this.

Columbia Lions (1-4)
@Manhattan Jaspers (3-3)
Saturday, November 26
Draddy Gym
Attendance: 1,138
Manhattan, NY (Sports Network) - Brian Barbour scored a game-high 22 points as he led the Columbia Lions to a 59-41 win over the Manhattan Jaspers in non- conference action at Draddy Gym.
Barbour converted just 8-of-21 shots from the floor for the Lions (1-4) as they picked up their first win of the season in their fifth try. Alex Rosenberg added 11 points and John Daniels cleared a game-high 11 rebounds.
The Jaspers (3-3) were paced by Roberto Colonette who dropped in 10 points, but at the same time the other four starters combined to shoot just 3-of-23 from the field. Emmy Andujar contributed seven points and a team-best 10 rebounds as they suffered their second straight loss.
Neither team shot the ball particularly well from the field in the first half, but with just seven total field goals and 1-of-7 accuracy behind the three- point line, Manhattan found itself trailing at the break, 27-19.
The second half turned into a nightmare for the Jaspers as they sank just four field goals, leaving them with almost twice as many turnovers (21) as baskets (11) on the afternoon.
Columbia pulled off the win despite shooting only 34.4 percent from the floor and 6-of-27 behind the three-point line.

Foresight (394 comments)
There was one theme to his answers that I've never noticed before:
I regret to say I have no response. I never try to think about what computing might be like 25 years from now; it would be a waste of time, since I know that I don't know.
I found these responses severly disappointing for that reason. Agree with him or not, it's sad to see the responses be essentially "I don't have a vision for the future of FSF, because I can't know the future." That sounds needlessly self-limiting.

Here in Canada, phone transactions usually require the CVV2 code on the back of the card. You don't enter your PIN, because you're not verifying using the chip.
Re:What about Magic? (136 comments)
I agree 100%. A lot of people will say that you don't have to spend a lot of money to make a deck that wins. Those people are kidding themselves! Sometimes, you've just gotta pay the money to get the good cards.
Luckily, there are formats that are designed to reward skill more than the size of your bank account: sealed deck and booster draft. Both require participants to buy unopened packs and use them, but paying $15 or $25 every once in a while is far less expensive in the long run.

They could also be referring to Michael Smith, who won the Nobel Prize in 1993 for his work on the polymerase chain reaction. PCR made modern genomics possible.
Am I really that old? (375 comments)
I believe that the oldest one on my computer right now was created December 16, 1989.
I think that means that it's been copied through at least eight computers.
It's a text file called CLASSICS.TXT, which is a large compilation of what can only be described as BBS etiquette.
Also, an interesting treatise from an anonymous author about "software proliferation" (since he refused to use the word "piracy".)
Re:can we call it OSXI yet? (647 comments)
It's not like the 10 was ever a version number anyway, in that it's a derivative of Next, not ("classic") Mac OS, which they had to ditch. The "X" has always been a marketing thing.
Calling it "X" has always been a marketing thing, it's true, but Apple have been very adamant that it be pronounced "ten" and not "ecks". So I don't know if it has that much to do with it being a NeXT derivative. After all, the OS before OS X was OS 9.
Misleading summary (500 comments)
Well, until recently, pretty often. It 30% shows me there is obviously some form of survival benefit to this for it to be so high.
Newsweek misinterpreted the numbers in the article, which is why that figure seems so high.
According to the actual journal article, it's not that 30% of children possess the allele that reduces dopamine receptor density.
Rather, it's that children that possess the allele have a 30% reduction in dopamine receptor density.

I would like to frame for a friend, in a 10 by 15inch frame, her three childrens pictures. Their are three individual places for each childs picture. How would it be best to incorporate flowers around the mat? Thank You. |

Do you have a mat with 3 cut-outs for the pictures? If they are ovals, you could have the flowers curve around 2/3 of the oval. It is hard to picture what you are describing. |

I am sorry, did not describe well. Yes, the mat, has 3 oval cut outs. |
