ghshepard, true. The article focused on seawalls and surges, but still managed to get the damage correct: 600,000 residents effected, $100 Billion in damage, 145 mph winds. Regardless, knowing the effects of the storm -shown through the simulation - there could have been a plan for the ensuing catastrophe, e.g. evacuating the city, relief efforts; which seem ad hoc.
There is a deep fallacy in his argument. The academic learning of a language teaches almost nothing. The true challenge is not foreign vocabulary it is the reluctance to engage another culture, which is the prerequisite to learning any language. The author does not make this distinction possibly because he was stationed in a German-speaking country and assumes each language learner can mimic his learning process without his experience.
Often, one won't even attempt to learn a language unless you appreciate - or at least think you appreciate - the culture.
Actually you could make it to where people write and it looks like a letter. I think it is a worth while venture. I would just make a page that simulated a typewriter.
And give the option to delete a page you created. I know it will take MySQL coding but I think it is also worth the effort.
The Adventures of Sayf Ben Dhi Yazan - ancient Syrian mystical tale of a man on a mission to capture a magical book. Many parallels to the Legend of Zelda. The poetic form isn't preserved in the English translation.
Great Museum Homes of the Western United States - The great houses of the Western US, who built them, how the owners got their fortune, details into their businesses, etc
=], I have a cookie/muffin recipe generator. Instead on a cookbook with limited recipes, the generator can be customized (produces recipes based on a user's preferences).
Baked Goods are grouped by type (e.g. chocolate chip cookie). The generator generates a unique recipe each time you click on a type of cookie/muffin.
How many creators actually become rich? I thought the marketers of innovations are the ones who become rich. To but people back on earth you could show how many great creators end up with nothing after years and provide practical solutions to combat this.
Charles Goodyear, Eli Whitney, and Robert Kearns come to mind as people who never profited off their creations or suffered greatly trying to receive just compensation.
This is a good observation, What is the rough percentage of those who don't attend MIT/Stanford/Berkeley/Harvard who have huge start-ups? Is it the same as presidents not from Yale/Harvard? Major Southern musicians not from Athens,Nashville,Atlanta, New Orleans, Memphis...?
I want to use entry-level employee information (had internship, graduate degree) about certain professions to graphically display hiring trends. Sort of like a Linkedin but without detailed questioning.
The job trends will be shown through images which are generated from questions to represent a worker's attributes.
I checked out this plenty of fish website. It is amazing because most dating websites cannot get people to upload pictures of themselves. Plenty of Fish has broken the personal photo stigma.
The odd thing is that, according to their website, Plenty of Fish is actually hiring despite what is printed in the New York Times.
On face value, Plenty of Fish is a standard dating website (compare to OKCupid) which makes its success more impressive.
