As an only occasional Windows user, I wasn't sure what PowerShell was (sounds 3rd party to me, a la Cygwin). Turns out it is a 1st party command line tool and scripting engine. From a glance it looks to use similar syntax to CMD.exe, b

They ran the million dollar challenge[1] to increase viewership, thus decreasing churn. If you could (make a case that you) consistently decrease churn then you'd pay for yourself at that rate. 1: http://www.wired.com/2

Definitely not a lawyer but it seems that way to me. Also a lot of the state laws seem to "allow" fees that are blatantly disallowed. (Alabama, search fee of $5; Arkansas, Retrieval fee for offsite records; California, clerical co

Correct. Also the 5S doesn't have barometer/altimeter so you won't get flights climbed.

Thanks. Suspected as much, but still a bit petrified that the shell var/func passed through perl to the backtick-shell.

The premise of Prime is that the network would be a much smaller subset than, say, your Facebook friends. I know that's been said before and perhaps left by the wayside, but we really think it will hold true in this case (that your Pri
