Anyone know how this library handles caching?
Just me or does that sound awfully close to Apple's marketing language? "We think the benefits are going to be huge."?
Thanks, I was gonna say the same thing. :)
If it's really a first principle then there should be only one of them. This is very important if you want to understand the world completely.
Why would you want passion? The thing you should look for is interest. Passion only means that they don't have the necessary information to tell if what they are doing is reckless or not.

Sounds great but,
"There is no amount of training that would make up for the talent we’d extinguish by teaching them how to write annual reviews."
Leadership has nothing to do with writing annual reviews.
I heard that leadership means gathering people's power to accomplish a goal.
So while leadership may mean management, management is not inherently leadership.

I see what you did there.
I've seen an implementation of audio recording with CocosDenshion and AVAudioSession, but Denshion doesn't do any of the recording. It's only used for playback afaik so you can probably still use ObjectAL with this method.

Wow, I was just thinking about how to accomplish this idea yesterday.
If anything, at least we could give one to each child much more easily than a desktop or laptop.

The following might seem somewhat far fetched to you, but then again, when I was in your position it seemed that way to me too.
One thing non-religious people are able to report about God is that what we call a god means the consciousness which is generated by activities. Consciousness is like an electrical signal in that it will transmit any information input into it.
Something recorded in a consciousness can be said not to have very much mass compared to the actual object which was met, so curiously (and not coincidentally), people calling the Higgs particle the god particle is actually as wrong as the religious accounts of gods ability because god doesn't have the ability to change massive things by itself. Hope this makes more sense..
All the things you listed seem to be propagated by religions, rather than being abilities of a God or things that non-religious people report about gods.
From the article:
Dorigo — who said he doesn't have access to the full ATLAS memo — gives several reasons for this viewpoint. He points out, for example, that scientists at Fermilab didn't see the putative Higgs signal in their Tevatron data, which covered similar ground as the ATLAS experiment.
Dorigo feels strongly enough, in fact, to put his money where his mouth is.
"I bet $1,000 with whomever has a name and a reputation in particle physics (this is a necessary specification, because I need to be sure that the person taking the bet will honor it) that the signal is not due to Higgs boson decays," he wrote on his blog today. "I am willing to bet that this is NO NEW PARTICLE. Clear enough?"
Probably because he's not a Blackberry user... :)
The type appears quite small. Do you know if this is a problem for pilots?
