Mark Smith's reading of Great Expectations is great highly recommend.
I guess, the trivial inconvenience of the user having to return, recreate the lineup from scratch and remember the 10 digit number/salt (or pull from local memory/localStorage if its the same device) . They would have to do this after the start of the first game but before the end of all the events in the event group. I.E before winners are calculated. If you didn't force the players to do this early on, you wouldn't be able to see live rankings which would take some fun out of it I guess. There would be other problems I guess to with edit lineup functionality.

It is a good idea though and would certainly curb this kind of thing happening.

Does anybody know where I can find other music similar to that of the video?
This is suprising but now compare this to rainforest devastation in the Amazon and the rest of the world and I doubt we're in the positive overall which is what logically counts.
I came across an equally strange bug a year or so ago.

I found a way to reproduce it, put in a bug report with apple and never got a response.

Doing 256 bit sign ecdsa's for 10s: 42874 256 bit ECDSA signs in 9.99s

Doing 2048 bit private rsa's for 10s: 1864 2048 bit private RSA's in 9.99s

That's 23 times as many signatures using ECDSA as RSA.

42 874 256

18 642 048

23 times as many signatures?

People were discussing the legitimacy of this release. I read the release, googled the authors name and I thought his history relevant to the conversation. Not just ties 'deputy assistant to President George W. Bush'.
I was just bringing the point to light for discussion.
If there is slipperyness it's the fact that the guy who wrote this and is Facebook General Counsel, Ted Ullyot, use to be G.W Bush's right hand man.
Ted Ullyot, Facebook General Counsel

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Ullyot

"From January 2003 to January 2005, Ullyot worked in the White House as associate counsel and as a deputy assistant to President George W. Bush. He then served as chief of staff to U.S. Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales."

Naturopathy is a hodge-podge of mostly unscientific treatment modalities based on vitalism and other prescientific notions of disease. As a result, typical naturopaths are more than happy in essence to “pick one from column A and one from column B” when it comes to pseudoscience, mixing and matching treatments including traditional Chinese medicine, homeopathy, herbalism, Ayurvedic medicine, applied kinesiology, anthroposophical medicine, reflexology, craniosacral therapy, Bowen Technique, and pretty much any other form of unscientific or prescientific medicine that you can imagine.

“Do you know what they call ‘alternative medicine’ that’s been proved to work? ‘Medicine’.” — Tim Minchin

From your girlfriends experience learning pseudo-science you have concluded "the course was very thorough, they are a very good educational institution". How?

Enough Said?

Since when have Beauty Therapy, Natural Medicine, Hairdressing, Massage Therapy or 'Health & Fitness' been defined as applied sciences?

I think it's pretty outrageous that the Department of Education allows them to carry this name.
