Yeah this is correct for Noroviruses as well - good old soap and water is the most effective against Norovirus, more so than alcohol and disinfectant gels. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norovirus#Prevention My wife work

It's honourable not having affiliate links, but I'd add them in if this were my project. Most people don't care or even know what one is and it'd allow you a bit of beer money from the project and cover the costs of the

He has very little power in comparison to say Obama. Cameron has the ability to appoint and remove Cabinet members and steer the party very broadly. Senior Civil Servants and Minister's aides have far more power comparative to the pres

If the UK had President Cameron (god help us all) then we'd still have a similarly long speech, with a similar number of people in a similar place every year - much like the State of the Nation address in the USA. It's a function

I'm assuming that the apps that have already been developed with this architecture have been closed source, and he's just waiting to develop an open source demo app, not that he's unproductive as a developer.

It'd be like blocking a special number, say 1111 (which is the UK landline Childline number), which kids could use to only get advice on bullying, stress, self-harm and abuse. It's extremely sad that parents can be given the optio

Also a reminder: Families with these porn filters deployed will also not have access to LGBT advice websites, sexual health websites (other than probably the NHS's), and porn addiction websites. If I were a 13/14 year old now, and

I haven't. I've written to my (Tory) MP, asked all my friends to (and two have), repeatedly tried to win over the pro-filter people I know. I've also educated them on why it'll block sex education websites (like 6 months

That's an obvious way of stealing money, just by taking the cash. I'm assuming the serial numbers of the money in an ATM is noted, or known by the distributor, so proving a criminal used stolen money after the fact is not too hard

It's an okay idea, but a pull request to suggest a coffee place is a pain in the arse, a drop pin and form would be much nicer, even for us who use the command line a lot.

I agree, the idea isn't bad but the Powerpoint style js animation effects are really distracting to the text and purpose. Get rid of those, and the huge text, and you'll do yourself a favour.

I wouldn't call surveilling internet connections and phone calls a 'crime against humanity', those are reserved for mass murders and genocides. It's bad, but not ethnic cleansing bad.

This'll be a good thing if MT's customer service and server tech line up replaces over GoDaddy's, but it won't. I'm afraid GD will just take the customers, move them over to their server and strip MT for assets

This same thing happened to me - I searched Twitter to find a few having the same problem, but not enough for it to be everyone. It makes sense for it to be linked to the developer program for iOS 7 betas, as I'm on one too.

Yeah I worked straight out of Uni for a few different companies, starting on £24k, but ramping up quite quickly to my last permanent job, which paid £40k (in Liverpool, not London). I then saved up a few months rent and just made the leap,

I live outside of London and commute in via a high-speed rail link - take me about an hour to get into the office. The rents are about half the price and the 'quality of life' is about the same, especially since friends in London

In the 60's the teenager label emerged. These were just kids that had found a sense of community in sharing music, rebellion against the system, and unique dress. There's nothing new here. Teenagers will be rebellious, as they alw
