Is there anything cooler than citizen science? Is there anyone nerdier than me? Nope and nope.Help them spot explosions on the Sun and track them across space to Earth. Your work will give astronauts an early warning if dangerous solar radiation is headed their way. And you could make a new scientific discovery.

About Me
Crowdsourcing: A Definition
- I like to use two definitions for crowdsourcing:
The White Paper Version: Crowdsourcing is the act of taking a job traditionally performed by a designated agent (usually an employee) and outsourcing it to an undefined, generally large group of people in the form of an open call.
The Soundbyte Version: The application of Open Source principles to fields outside of software.
The Rise of Crowdsourcing
- Read the original article about crowdsourcing, published in the June, 2006 issue of Wired Magazine.

A case in point is Jon Walker at Firedoglake, who today has a post claiming that removing the individual mandate would "reduce" the CBO score. I place "reduce" in square quotes because "reduce" is not the antonym of worsen, which is what I had argued the removal of the mandate would do to the CBO's scoring of the bill.
Posted by: online coupons | May 17, 2010 at 07:21 AM
The CBO is scoring the health care bills along a number of different dimensions, the four most important of which are outlays, revenues, coverage, and impact upon premium costs. The way that analysts and policymakers will react to the score is based on a combination of all four variables.

Some time before, I needed to buy a house for my business but I didn't have enough money and could not buy something. Thank God my sister proposed to get the loans at banks. Thence, I did so and used to be happy with my consolidation loan.

i like this part of the post:"The burning of the festival's giant wooden statue is clearly a moment of spiritual significance for the film's subjects, but when they rely on New Age cliches about "energy," "intensity," and "vision" to describe their feelings, the words don't resonate.
" is very good

The sun is truly a very interesting star.

Has anyone else ever wondered how small they are compared to the size of the sun. I think it is just amazing to think about. We are but just dust in the wind.

I simply adore special search engines (e.x.. http://www.torrentbasket.com/windows-xp-sp3 torrent files search engines ), with their help the search of necessary info or file becomes much quicker.

Breast Cancer is the second most cause of death among women. It is time that we learn about breast cancer and take precautionary measures to prevent it. Worrying about breast cancer won’t work. Let us wake up to the alarm on increasing cancer cases and strive towards making more and more people know about it.
