I bought an iPad (original 3g, 64GB) and it has replaced 90-99% of my daily computer use. At the time, it was the least expensive way for me to have a computer with 3g that also had no moving parts. I was frustrated at first, but as the apps improve, it gets easier to work with. The restrictions were stifling at first, but now I really don't notice them.
I use TTS extensively, and there are some audio apps that I use that are perfect for quick trouble shooting (now being done by a break out cable on my iPhone).
It a good device. Oddly, it is easier to stay focused with it. It's durable and at this point, if it dies, I would not be as horrified as I would if my laptop did. Upgrading my software licences on my Mac is cost prohibitive, while on the iOS platform it's virtually free.
That all said- iOS devices seem to age poorly. Safari and some other apps seem to get more crash prone with every iteration of iOS. To counter that, I am only frustrated by Safari, and not the apps that use WebKit, and except for some games, nothing that I use regularly crashes.
Free Brothers grapefruit bitters to taste in good tonic water (not too sweet), with gin and ice. I was shooting for the perfect bitter drink, and after some trial and error, that simple recipie has not faild me for the past decade.
Post Script: Bitters don't store for ever. Use them if you got them.
Squid- Giant and Colossal, I know they are in the waters near my little surf town. I don't worry about them. What I worry about are the increasing numbers of Humboldt squid coming up the coast. In South and Central America that's the squid fishermen talk about taking people in the dead of night, Humboldt squid. They are optical hunters, hunt in groups, and at full size are the size of an average human.
Author C. Clark devoted part of his Mysterious World to squid attacks, and as a kid I was both excited and scared. Coming eye-to-eye with a dieing, and now preserved, Giant Squid did the same. The cephalopods are smart, and just biding their time. We will be on their menu when their food become scarce.

The ≅1 500 mile range is a huge selling point, perhaps it's biggest. This would mean an unprecedented launch window. It could hypothetically extend a launch window for hours, instead what of what it can currently be, 10 minutes on particular days. It could launch at any latitude, and now launch from international waters, as well as any place that would not mind a giant rocket taking off over them.
Grandmother in Bradbury's the Electric Grandmother, adapted for Twilight Zone and Wonderworks (1980s).
Gardner in the 1972 Silent Running and Runaway with Tom Selleck.
Robot gardeners make sense, but somehow seemed odd in at least those two movies.
For a non anthropomorphic yet intelligent robot I suggest planetary scale, suicide bomber in the 1974 movie Dark Star.

Stupid on their part, as they make clear lenses that block all UV not just the amounts the FDA certifies needing to be blocked. This would have been one of Oakley's selling points and I could see myself picking up a pair because I need new sunglasses and haveing a pair that I could also use in the movies would be a plus.

I thought Mega Force was ultra top super secret.
Bet the Otterbox Defender could take the same. I like the Otterbox case I have. It's been durable and useful with the integrated stand. I broke the cover/stand in a drop, but the iPad was Ok and Otterbox replaced the unit with in a few days. The case fits better with out thin clear screen protector, and it adds a lot of mass, but it works.
I pulled put the Compact OED to check that word and, as always, was amazed at what I did not know. I tip my hat to you.
"Online"- Connecting a 300 baud modem via an acoustic coupler, long after people had direct connections.
Internet - UCD, a NEXT Cube was on display at UCD. It could connect to the Universities Network. Later, I would attend one of the first schools.
First Internet WTF - While using Mosaic I realized that BBS were dead.
First Internet Video sires that I remember being worth buffering for 10 minuets- Joe Paradise by Wild Brain. Wild Brain would later go onto making those eSurance videos that we hate so much.

I hate it when an articles use the term "Scientists", as though all or most scientists agree with the proposed idea. The great thing about science is that it is fallible, but self correcting. I love how just one person can radically change what is considered to be true.
Two scientists have a hypothesis. They believe that the proof is already in a data set created by a third party. That doesn't mean there is another planet in our solar system. If a consensus of astronomers, astrophysicists, gravitational physicists believed this, then I might be more hopeful.
The search for Planet X, by what ever name, has been fodder for pseudoscience and science-fiction. It has also been the spur for great science and science fiction. I want there to be a gas giant out there, but as for now, the preponderance of evidence and experts, suggest that there is not one. I do like how the original article ends, "So if it is real, Tyche may not only be disrupting the orbits of comets, it may also overturn an established scientific theory."
For now, the work of these scientists will be used as proof of every wacky idea about our solar system, from Niberu to likely some SyFy Chanel movie.

Ambient audio. That night, Great Horned Owles and wind through mostly burnt, but recovering, landscape.
COMIC SANS is everywhere.
Industrial Velcro on back of Otterbox's Defender cover has worked well for me so far.
"We finally decided that we were going to get a large metal button, coat it in nitrocellulose and create a brief incendiary event that would burn the thread away. Hence, when the thread burns away, the button would fall off and the bra would open."
It does not end there. It is a fanstastic write up worth reading even if you have no plans on makeing the device.

Zeta Talk and the Zeta's that speak through Nancy Leider speak against your perceptions of reality.
But thank's to Coast-To-Coast AM, Art Bell, and the Internet, we now know of this impending doom, and how it was to happen, at the end of 2009, I mean.... 2000, I mean, 2010, .... well if it happens I'll be right.
