You should check out this thread on Cloud Computing. That's probably the direction google will take when it makes its move into the OS Arena. Given the ramifications of that technology "OS" as a concept may well be supplanted by something else..

Hey Sonesay, It seems like you're already well on your way with your project (thanks to Nabb I see). I'll add what I can. From the mock-ups in the PDF file, it looks as if you and your partner are aiming for a custom variant on the accordion component. But before I throw in my two cents I need some clarification on a few things. From your initial post I take it you want all the menu items to be in a scroll pane of some sort. But the story boards weren't clear on how to handle a scrollable field along with the rest of the interactions. So I am somewhat at a loss in that regard. In addition there were some other steps missing. For instance what happens to the bars above the selected bar when moving from the 3rd to the 4th frame of the story board. And I'm kinda fuzzy on the last three steps as well. Not such exactly how one leads into another. Forgive me if I appear a bit picky, but its always good to clear up any ambiguity in a design before writing any code.

Download link will probably be here: Download Chrome Browser From Google Today Though it is currently inactive.

Its 7:00 am EST and there's no link available as yet... I was hoping they would release the app at 12:01 this morning...oh well we may just have to wait a few more hours... This is the closest thing I've got to a link thus far: Blog entry on Google Chrome Whenever its released it will probably be posted on the site at the above link if anywhere...

Breaking News: Google is releasing its own custom browser called CHROME. (Beta release) See Article at PC WORLD: Google to Release Open-Source 'Chrome' Browser Make sure to check out the comic book that covers CHROME's feature set and how it distinguishes itself from its soon to be rivals. Should be released in another 15 minutes EST.

It's probably not but there are competitions where programmers vie to create highly "obfuscated" code of the kind you've listed. That kind of code usually takes advantage of little known quirks in the syntax of a language and/or compiler like the one you've listed here. Google 'obfuscated code' and you will no doubt find even more oddities in code syntax and their applications. One thing though, some compilers maintain strict adherence to the specifications of its particular language, therefore some obfuscations can only be run with certain compilers. That's probably why @seba1killer got the errors he/she listed.

That's some very solid advice there. Here's some more to add to it. If you're serious about pursuing a career as a programmer then you need to start building a library of technical reference materials -- primarily of the paper-based kind -- i.e. books. As great and as versatile as the net is when it comes to accessing information taking a bit of time to sit down with a book and assimilating its contents can prove just as worthwhile if not more so. Come to think of it reading technical texts can double as part of a fitness routine given that they tend to be pretty hefty . A good introductory text for learning how to program standard algorithms is Introduction To Algorithms by Cohen, Leiserson, Rivest and Stein. It's really a college level textbook and a high level of proficiency in algebraic math is assumed going in (even though the appendices cover much of the requisite knowledge) but it's as good a place to start as any. The algorithms in this book are presented in a generalized format so that they are applicable to pretty much any language you'll come across. Being as you're still in high-school this text may prove a bit difficult at first, especially if you're not used to reading technical texts but it will be well worth the effort.

Coming up in the Caribbean home brewed teas were pretty much a given. Teas brewed from Mint leaves are a favorite of mine. There used to be a mint plant in the garden where my mother would send me to pick leaves for tea in the morning. Another great tea is based on crushed ginger. Boil for a few minutes add a bit of sugar and you're good to go. It has a little kick to it when it hits the back of your throat but the aroma alone is worth the price. One of the more unusual by tasty home brews I've had growing up was orange rind. Basically you take the skin peeled from an orange, wash it thoroughly and then hang it somewhere in the kitchen leaving it to dry for a few days. Then you boil it, strain and (of course) add some sugar. Goes nicely with a bit of toast bread and butter...

Seems like gay is in and straight is out ...Personally though I think you're far better off now than you were. Whether she left you for a girl or a guy at least you're not with someone who is not truly invested --emotionally and otherwise-- in the relationship. Think of it this way, it could have been 10 years instead of 4, with kids, a mortgage and mutual bank accounts. Now that would have been a mess. Be grateful for small mercies no matter how painful they are at first. Here's a twist on an old adage...An optimist sees the donut, the pessimist the hole...Try to focus on the "donut" in your situation

After the mental picture you've just inspired with that comment I doubt if I'll ever see eggs the same way again.

Personally I think that if you're into dragon-lore then one of the best series you could possibly get hold of is the "Temeraire" books by Naomi Novik. They are amazing works with a far more mature and dare I say realistic bent than most fantasy novels surrounding dragons. Novik does something quite remarkable in these books. She combines the Napoleonic Era, maritime warfare of the same period and Dragons to create an astonishingly intriguing work of fiction. She has already completed her first trilogy and is already two books into her second (having released the latest in the series in July of this year). Here's the list of titles thus far: His Majesty's Dragon Black Powder War Throne of Jade Empire of Ivory Victory of the Eagles The author also has a site you can check out: Temeraire From what I've already read (ie. everything except for 'Victory of the Eagles') I can honestly say that I found these books to be very enjoyable reads outstripping Eragon and its sequels by far. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an engaging read.

Human integration of plant mechanisms seem somewhat unpalatable to most here. Though personally I wouldn't mind running around looking like the HULK . That being said how about pursuing the symbiote idea; having a living interface that uses photosynthesis to provide what we need but without having to change anything about the human physiology. I suppose we would have to look at examples of symbiotic relationships in the real world first...I guess the foremost question would be are there any such relationships between plant life and animals and to what extent are they interconnected.

I am a Jamaican...And a very proud one considering the stellar performance of our male and female sprinters in the 100metre events of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. In the Finals of both events we had more than one athlete competing. Usain Bolt, our 21 year old prodigy whose primary event is the 200 meter sprint won the 100 meter men's event with a record time of 9.69 seconds. With one gold already under his belt he is expected to capture the 200 meter gold as well. As brilliant as Bolt's performance was, the combined wins of Shelly-Ann Fraser (Gold), Kerron Stewart(joint-Silver), and Sherone Stewart (joint-Silver) for the women's 100 meter sprint event has thrown the country into a jubilant tirade of celebration. Even here in the US within Jamaican communities scattered throughout the country the effects can be felt and are clearly evident, even in the absence of satisfactory coverage of the events in US-based media. We are known as the sprint factory of the world and in keeping with that tradition our next-gen athletes are making their mark and making all 'Yardies' proud. Well done...

Upload the template if you can (i.e. if its legal to do so). That way board members like myself will be able to take a look at it and offer some suggestions on how to proceed...Otherwise, to repeat what Nabb already stated, you're not giving enough details to work with...

I don't know of any graphics apps that are specifically geared toward button creation. However I can suggest a few opensource general purpose graphics applications that are pretty much on par with their commercial counterparts. A great tool for creating digital images as well as photo manipulation is the GIMP. You will have to invest some time to learn the basics of the app, but if you have ever worked with a graphics tool before you won't find the learning curve as steep as would a beginner. There are a number of tutorial sites out there that show you how to create a number of effects -- including buttons -- with the GIMP. Here's a list of a few I have found useful in the past: gimp-tutorials.net https://www.gimp.org/tutorials/ http://www.gimp-tutorials.com/ Chances are with a little googling you'll find even more tutorials...some of them even categorized . You might also want to try out a few other open-source apps like Blender3D or InkScape.
