How rich do you feel?
It seems, according to most of the posts here, that feeling rich is vastly different from actually being rich. The 'feelers' speak of happiness, and being emotionally rich, because of family, health, friends, etc., while the 'actuals', with, no doubt, a stern look, speak of working hard, and saving your money, yet, at the same time, they seem to frown upon those considered less fortunate. Why don't they just spend some of that hard earned cash to find the happiness that the 'feelers' enjoy. Perhaps they would be less bitter toward the segment of society who are down on their luck, or to those who choose not to try to change it. Am I knocking those that work hard? No. Knowing that all you own came from the fruits of your labor is very satisfying.

Alice is trying to telephone Bob. Alice telephones Bob, and hears someone answer the phone in Bob's voice. They say "I'm sorry Alice, I don't want to talk to you", and hang up. Except, it wasn't actually Bob who answered the phone, it was Comcast using a special device to impersonate Bob's voice. Comcast might describe this as "delaying" Alice and Bob's conversation, on the theory that perhaps they'll keep calling each other until some day when Comcast isn't using their special device. They may also invoke the theory that Alice will call other people who are a lot like Bob, but aren't on Comcast's network, so her conversation will only be delayed. If "delaying" traffic was Comcast's private intent, they were clearly making absurd and frequently incorrect assumptions about the protocols they were jamming.
Samsung unwraps GX-20 DSLR, new compacts
Samsung today became the latest in a series of camera makers to update their lines for the PMA photography show next week. At the top of the line, the GX-20 digital SLR is a close cousin to the similarly new Pentax K20D but with key differences; while it shares the same 14.6-megapixel, low-noise CMOS camera sensor as the K20D, the GX-20 includes a different on-camera interface and generates JPEG images differently than its Pentax sibling. The Samsung unit's physical design is also different and sports a dedicated RAW shooting button that produces an uncompressed shot even when the camera is normally set to JPEG mode. The GX-20 also boasts optical image stabilization and a dust removal system that works both actively through a shaking system and passively through a dust-repellant coating.
