"Regrettably, the market for this service has not materialized as had been expected."

Connexion is offered on some commercial flights in Europe and Asia but was never adopted by a major U.S. carrier.

“We’re going to be very disappointed if we can’t provide this service, which many of our customers, especially on long flights to North America and Asia, have really come to appreciate,” said Lufthansa spokesman Michael Lamberty in an interview Friday.

  I thought the movie was pretty cool.

Zander said the Schaumburg, Illinois-based company didn't make it clear enough that the Rokr stores fewer songs than an iPod. The phone holds 100 songs and costs $249.99 with a two-year contract from Cingular. The iPod Nano, introduced the same day, holds 1,000 songs and costs about the same.

The Digital Matrix research firm rates advertising models by using a scoring system that measures the combined visual impact of various physical attributes in television commercials.

Volunteers were asked to rate 200 photographs of men and women in terms of their attractiveness, while computer software analysed the images and calculated distances and ratios between features.

By comparing these factors, the researchers were able to come up with a "beauty function" to measure attractiveness.

The new software applies this algorithm to photographs and gently adjusts features to transform the face into a more attractive version.

And it seems to be working: in a survey of before and after photos, 79% of respondents deemed the morphed face more attractive.

In the UK, London-based company Anthropics Technology Ltd has been working on similar software - this time focusing on "beautifying" pictures of women.

I don't think it will hurt backup companies since Time Machine is geared towards home users.

Such is the nature of third-party software: meet an unfulfilled need with your software one day, watch that same need get addressed by an operating system update the next.

Can you add a few legit links??

Let's see.

Yada yada...[too reasonable!]

Again, it just doesn't make sense. 

mjvoice, I think you have a valid point, that is, a necessary adjunct to "Have you accepted Jesus as your personal savior?" really has to be "Have you accepted Lucifer as your personal adversary?"  Don't worry — whenever I mention it, I will be sure to call it the famous "mjvoice Corollary" (you'll have to enforce any trademarks yourself).

Wow.

...Be kind to your fellow man, don't lie, don't steal, etc - those are all Church teachings...

Are you SURE about that, mj?

The Church may well advocate those things, but they did not ORIGINATE with the Church. Good was not less good prior to being branded under the Christian trademark, nor did it become better after it was Jesus Brand Good. There isn't anything in the Bible in terms of ethics that didn't exist prior to it.

On the other hand, the Church also hasn't made any particular effort to change this misconception, either.

Outside of his walk-on in Genesis and the bit about attempting to tempt Christ in the desert, Satan doesn't actually have a lot of dialog in the Bible; the emphasis really came from the pre-Martin Luther Catholic church, because it allows one a convenient way to discredit anything contradicting the Church's position, since anything outside it is ultimately only under the influence of "Satan".

Recalls certain people who expressed outrage over the idea of horoscopes or Ouija boards who decried them as "supernatural", given that the whole idea of "God" is, by definition, supernatural themselves.

Nobody should have to worry about intolerance or being unfairly stereotyped.
