E. O. Lawrence's (as in Lawrence Livermore Labs) ... or even more relevantly, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory where the ALS is located. Livermore was an offspring of the Berkeley labs.

just one link to answer you...

I'd venture to say that there are few governments as interventionists as the belgian one. 7 parliaments for 10M people....

But it is.... right there !

quite a few airbus have several cameras (belly, pilot's view and a tail-mounted one as well as a landing-gear camera). They are available through the on-board entertainment system. Pretty sweet if you ask me. Now, most american carriers are too cheap to get these "options"...

The GPS signal is acutally encrypted quite well and very few manufacturers are allowed to make these chips and access the encrypted signal. Its not that you can just make your own GPS chip.

Interesting to see the cnbc data is so at ends with the IMF's data. UK, for example, is put at 80% of GDP.. In fact, only pretty much the US matches. Not sure where the CNBC data comes from.. but I somehow trust the IMF's a bit more.

there's a cool add on like that for outlook as well.. pretty handy!

Maybe the orbit his ship took?

all that data is static... can easily be stolen just as easily. Two-factor authentication using one-time-codes (such as what paypal or google are doing) are infinitely safer as the login data cant be re-used.

In fact.. most hard drives have a built-in temperature sensor which is readable through the SMART diagnostics. They didnt need a new cable to get the drive's temperature. Also, the standard SATA power connector is 15 pins and the data one is 7 pins. I know the original article had this errors.. but sti...

and any device that connects through the 30pin connector needs the approved apple chip which apple will only sell to you as an approved developer. This is not "hacker-friendly" at all. Even big companies have a hard time getting the 30-pin identification chips...

different gallons.... ;)

seems not... See the post above with the 5th gear video ([www.youtube.com] where they hit a much bigger loop and run it at 36 Mph...

its been there for ages. The "long" is nowhere near as long as shown on the video, but its really handy. The long press on the BB button brings up the task-switcher in any BB device from the last two or three years. My bold 9000 has it and its quite handy... (the rest of the phone sucks though)

Also, the plant was damaged mainly by the quake itself and not so much the Tsunami

Running inside a VM does not necesarily mean its going to be slow. This is not an emulated platform, but rather running on the native hardware with a thin layer of emulation. Given that android code is based on java (which is a vm itself with no native code) the penalty might not be too bad. The main thing is to…

@deciBels: I agree with most of your statements, but as several other commenters mentioned, getting the famous TDMA clicking on the com is not rare AT ALL. And a plane with 200 transmitters searching for a signal at 300mW each makes for some significant sources of potential interference. When a pico-cell is installed…

@deciBels: Actually, not really. The components might be shielded, but plenty of avionics rely on receiving RF signals from ground antennas such as VOR and ILS, and those could be affected by other transmitting equipment.
