The nuclear industry and other advocates of using warhead plutonium in "mixed-oxide" (MOX) plutonium-uranium fuel often claim that the MOX option would make plutonium unusable in weapons. Such claims are inaccurate and irresponsible. Using warhead plutonium in MOX fuel neither "burns it up" nor renders it unusable in nuclear weapons. In fact, reactor-grade plutonium is even more desirable than weapon-grade in crude bomb designs that might be used by terrorists because reactor-grade makes initiation of the nuclear chain reaction easier. emmineb Thu, 20 Mar 2014 00:42:12 GMT http://navyleag.customer.netspace.net.au/fc_07vtl.htm The concept of producing a practical, winged, aircraft able to use aerodynamic lift for flight, yet capable of Vertical Take Off and Landing (VTOL) has fascinated designers since the dawn of powered flight. Whilst helicopters have achieved it, their fixed wing cousins have not, to anything like the same degree. emmineb Sat, 26 Apr 2014 14:00:20 GMT http://www.vcdquality.com/index.php?genre=1 emmineb Thu, 06 Jul 2006 11:14:53 GMT http://www.vesselofinterest.com/ наблюдаемое судно emmineb Sun, 18 Jun 2017 20:41:23 GMT http://www.comw.org/rma/fulltext/victory.html What the Gulf War Tells Us About the Future of Conflict - The RMA Debate emmineb Wed, 29 Apr 2015 14:53:25 GMT https://washingtonmonthly.com/magazine/january-february-march-2018/how-to-fix-facebook-before-it-fixes-us/ An early investor explains why the social media platform’s business model is such a threat—and what to do about it. by Roger McNamee In early 2006, I got a call from Chris Kelly, then the chief privacy officer at Facebook, asking if I would be willing to meet with his boss, Mark Zuckerberg. I had been a technology investor for more than two decades, but the meeting was unlike any I had ever had. Mark was only twenty-two. emmineb Sun, 07 Jan 2018 22:48:50 GMT http://www.we-make-money-not-art.com/ emmineb Fri, 02 Jun 2006 10:01:50 GMT http://www.yr.no/place/Sweden/Stockholm/Stockholm/ emmineb Thu, 03 Sep 2009 16:30:13 GMT http://www.sumerian.org/sumlinks.htm ABZU - Mesopotamian Study Resources Akkadian Language (Babylonian and Assyrian cuneiform texts) Cuneiform Digital Library Initiative (site at UCLA) Press Release Describing the Cuneiform Digital Library Initiative Mesopotamian Year Names Pennsylvania Sumerian Dictionary project The Penn Parsed Corpus of Sumerian project The Electronic Text Corpus of Sumerian Literature, Oxford Database of Neo-Sumerian Texts Babylonian Mathematics History Topics in Babylonian Mathematics Babylonian Astronomy/Astrology Software Program Bibliography of Mesopotamian Astronomy and Astrology A Review of the Babylonian Astronomical Diaries (slow to load) Musical Theory in the Ancient World-the Mesopotamian Precursors of Pythagoras History of Mesopotamian Measures Eisenbraun's - So emmineb Thu, 26 Apr 2007 13:49:11 GMT http://www.sumerian.org/sumlinks.htm emmineb Sat, 23 Dec 2006 12:45:12 GMT http://www.robertkelleyphd.com/12-tone.htm <<mathematics>> The essential part of this essay to read in order to understand the purpose of the Set Analyzer is The Basics of Atonal Theory.

Scientists are all human, with the typical faults and foibles that non-scientists have. Sociology, politics, psychology, and similar aspects of human nature all have a profound influence on how science is conducted. emmineb Wed, 10 Feb 2010 15:05:53 GMT http://www.toad.com/gnu/whatswrong.html Ron Rivest asked me, "I think it would be illuminating to hear your views on the differences between the Intel/IBM content-protection proposals and existing practices for content protection in the TV scrambling domain.

The devil's advocate position against your position would be: if the customer is willing to buy extra, or special, hardware to allow him to view protected content, what is wrong with that?" First, I call it copy protection rather than content protection, because "content" is such a meaningless word. What the technology actually does is to deter copying. Such technologies have a long history in computing, starting with the first microcomputers, minicomputers, and workstations. Except in very small niches, all such systems ultimately failed.

No need to pick a command like strech, scale, tilt, modify or rotate; it's just simple gestures... So Bill, you gonna post a response vid? BTW, do you know where I can get one these? he kept saying that there is no interface, what a lie, the MULTI-TOUCH sensor is an interface! (Also the Google Earth-like program had a GUI bar at the top) But aside from that little thing, three words sum it all up: I want that! Meh! There clearly is an interface. A) One does get a closer look a t a photograph by rubbing it. It may be simple but its far from natural. B) In the Google Earth style app there were BUTTONS! There is OBVIOUSLY still an interface. Having to learn a huge list of gestures will make it little better than an ancient CLI system. emmineb Thu, 22 Mar 2007 12:44:50 GMT http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/ naked capitalism emmineb Thu, 11 Mar 2010 12:21:37 GMT http://www.lifehack.org/articles/technology/20-ways-to-use-gmail-filters.html#more-3328 Media.
