It's all wrong. I wouldn't be listening to any of those songs if I could avoid it - except a couple perhaps.
I didn't wait until the end of time - how far out does it go?

Cannot be bothered to Google it; but wasn't there some 'scientist' that needed money to send information to the stars?

The only thing they don't show is just how faint and hard to detect those broadcasts would be...by 100LY you'd have to listen really, really hard to catch anything but static. Inverse square law affects teh signal-to-noise ration really badly, I'm afraid.
Chances are that even 5 or 10 LY out, you wouldn't hear a single note...and given that 2005's top single was James Blunt, that's probably a very good thing...

It's a possible reason why SETI just doesn't catch anything: the "broadcast lifetime" of this civilization is probably another 30 or 40 years at most - so if you figure we are "average" then to detect a civilization by radio needs them to be both damn close, and at exactly the right point in their development...more than a couple of dozen LY away and we don't stand any chance at all...

I had to stop when I found out I would be listening to Eminem 170 light years from here.
And Madona! fark that.

I spent a few minutes trying to think of a Gandalf quote I could cleverly mutilate as a reply, but alas...
Sometimes the true reward for completing a task is not the money, but instead the satisfaction of a job well done. But it's usually the money.

No problem: I prefer deep space images; planetary images are quite dull.

Normally I'd agree, but...this is the first time any form of life has probably ever seen this; that makes them kinda important. (Even if Martians / Our Lizard Masters / The Grays / Xenu [and his Thetans] did exist )

Seen it many ages ago. The original is better.
Decrease the belief in God, and you increase the numbers of those who wish to play at being God by being “society’s supervisors,” who deny the existence of divine standards, but are very serious about imposing their own standards on society.-Neal A. Maxwell
You must accept 1 of 2 basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe or we are not alone. Either way, the implications are staggering!-Wernher von Braun

As far as ORM's go, all I've ever used has been EF. I liked EF, but as I'm getting into Hibernate, I think it rocks. It's more work to manage, but it's got everything + the kitchen sink. Wonder why I never learned about this before...

That's why you have the kitchen sink to wash in.

I like the latest version of EF but I have also heard great things about Hibernate.

There's nothing bad about EF, and I like it a lot. It just keeps getting better too.

After using it for more in depth things, I've decided eclipse is just not good for real development. Even the video tutorial I did the guy was explaining why you have to restart when you use the hql window with hibernate.
It always seems like some weird bug happens and after tracking it down you have to restart. I don't really care what the underyling problems are or the work arounds. The fact that it happens so often is enough for me.
I'm going to be moving to intellij. I think I'm just spoiled by Visual Studio.

Yep, I hate Eclipse as well.... I'm doing mostly Linux dev now but I sure do miss VisualStudio sometimes.
