Rate Sheet Price
1x Full page 450
X35 schools = 15,750
However last minute sales can be anywhere from 20-70 percent off depending availability.
Of course i am willing to negotiate --- as its time sensitive space.

I'm assuming those prices are in BTC? No that has to be a USD price, 450/school is a lot we'd need to have roughly 8k btc for what i was thinking about It is a lot, I was just wondering why there hasn't been any mention of bitcoins whatsoever.

Didn't they post a few days ago to say that they would be going offline for a couple of days for upgrade work? Or did I dream that?
Someone bumped an old thread from last month where Nefario did say they would be down for a couple of days. I haven't seen a new one, but I definitely could have missed it.

Apologizes if this has been answered but where do I pay my Bitcoins to after I check out?
I know you've already paid, Xenland, but I'll answer this anyway for anyone who might also wonder upon their first purchase. Until I install a bitcoin friendly SCI that meets my high standards, I'll be manually emailing adresses for payment.

Hi edd,
I am trying to understand what this company will do. What sorts of projects will it be involved in? It promotes bitcoins?
Do you plan to profit from the Bitcoin Conference?
UBTC is the sort of company that is best described by the results of its endeavors, so keep an eye on BitcoinPrintShop.

A lottery is usually a cash prize. A raffle is usually a non-cash prize donated for the sole purpose of being "raffled off."
You haven't mentioned anywhere what the prize is.
How is your brews tasting? BTW do you sell any good teas... I'm more of a tea guy then a coffee drinker Some of my customers have been nice enough to leave some feedback here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=40068.0;allTeas, you ask? Yes, I've got teas: http://bitbrew.net/teas-too/

I genuinely want to go, it is far enough away where I hope I can.
To make this post more useful, some questions that maybe you can edit into the first post there. Just regarding list of any attendees that wish to say that they are attending, whether it be business or just personally showing up.
Good idea.

There needs to be a wider variety of goods and services available for bitcoins at rates that are at least as good as other currencies. One of the main attractions for me when I first heard about bitcoins was the elimination of the need to pay credit card companies or Paypal to accept money electronically - that's a huge savings for any merchant and it should be passed along to the customer.

I don't agree with schools teaching evolution as fact, when it is only theory. The evolution theory is based on assumptions which can't be proven.
'Theory', 'hypothesis' are used in non-technical contexts to mean an untested idea or opinion. A theory in technical use is a more or less verified or established explanation accounting for known facts or phenomena. e.g. the theory of evolution. A hypothesis is a conjecture put forth as a possible explanation of phenomena or relations, which serves as a basis of argument or experimentation to reach the truth. e.g. "This idea is only a hypothesis". I always remind those who claim that evolution is "only a theory" that gravity is, too. There is no accepted theory of gravity, only mathmatical models that describe and predict it, generally. We actually know that those models are wrong at the galaxy scale, because galaxies don't rotate at a rate that is consistant with our models. There is, in fact, no generally accepted theory as to what gravity actually is yet that doesn't detract from our acceptance that such a force of nature exists, because we can all easily observe it's effects as well as predict it's results. I know that you guys might consider that semantics, but I bet you all have heard a general explaination of how evolutionary theory works; but if you had any credible explaination of what gravity is (as opposed to how it acts) then I'd be very impressed. The truth is, that even Darwin stated that his theory of evolution was based upon several assumptions that couldn't be demonstrated in his day, one in particular that has been proven incorrect. That premise was that natural selection (which is a process that can be proven to exist) is the only process by which new species are created. This has never been demostrated, and likely cannot, even though natural selection is undoubtedly the dominate process of species change. The proof is in the details of "irreducible complexity". Said simply, if there is any species with any features that couldn't be developed by natural selection (within any reasonable probability of mutations occuring in the same individual organism) then Evolutionary theory is disproven. There exist hundreds of such examples, a couple dozen of which are bluntly obvious. But first, a link that smacks of a quote here.... http://www.uncommondescent.com/intelligent-design/natural-selection-defies-the-odds/<snip> Natural selection is, of course, a real force of nature, as demonstrated by the development of drug resistance by the malaria microbe through purely Darwinian processes. But, as Michael Behe has convincingly demonstrated, the power of natural selection is limited. Natural selection can provide a selective advantage by degrading a genome, as it does in the malaria example. But its power to BUILD a complex genome has never been demonstrated in the laboratory. In fact, the laboratory has shown as that over countless trillions of reproductive events, natural selection has NOT created complex new additions to the genome. When Darwin observed the beaks of Galapagos finches, he was observing small changes in an organism’s phenotype (i.e., the organism’s body plan) that gave the organism a selective advantage and thereby increased its predominance in the population. From this observation Darwin made an inference that has literally changed the world. He inferred that the same process was responsible for creating finches in the first place. Obviously, Darwin did not observe this process create finches. He reasoned, however, that a process that could create one small change in a population of organisms could create other small changes, and over time, those changes would accumulate, and when sufficient changes had accumulated over a long enough time, an entirely new species would emerge. This entirely natural process, Darwin reasoned, was responsible for the creation of all life, from the first single-celled organism on though to human beings themselves. The important thing always to keep in mind is this: “Darwin inferred . . .” Again, Darwin did not observe one species morphing into another through the process of natural selection. The finches remained finches. They did not change into another kind of bird, much less another kind of species altogether. Nor has anyone since Darwin observed a species morph into another. The main point is that the power of natural selection to create large, as opposed to small, changes in the genotype and the phenotype of organisms remains, to this day, an inference from the data, not the data itself. If any NDE proponent commenting on this post disputes this assertion, I invite him or her to cite a single example of one species being observed changing into another since Origin of Species was published in 1859. This gets me back to our discussion of probability. As I said, NDE proponents assume that natural selection has the power to beat the odds and create, for example, highly complex and specified strands of DNA, the creation of which is beyond the power of mere chance. But since no one has ever observed natural selection create complex changes in a strand of DNA (much less create the strand of DNA from scratch in the first place), how can NDE proponents be so dead certain of the staggering, almost God-like powers of creation they attribute to natural selection? One would think they would be more modest in their claims for a process that has never actually been observed. Instead, they bombastically assert that their theory has the same epistemological standing as the theory of gravity. <snip> The Theory of Evolution, despite teh provable existance of a process of natural selection, is not equatable with theories of physics that describe gravity. Dr. Jobe Martin is a former devotee to Evolutionary Theory, who was challenged by his students to prove that it was correct, and by attempting to do so and failing, began to be convinced of the alternative. He has produced a number of videos that document species that have irreduciblely complex features that could not have arisen by natural selction (that is, could not have aided the organism in surviving to reproduce) unless those features could have arisen simultaniously, an event that is roughly comparable to an address collision in bitcoin. (not impossible, but astronomicly unlikely given the time frame). His most famous subject is the cuddlefish, whose active camo is so advanced that it uses it to put it's prey, literally, into a trance. Yet, if it's camo wasn't almost as advanced as it is, then it's prey wouldn't have been dazzeled. Since the cuddlefish is neither fast enough to catch it's prey, nor it's prey being defenseless otherwise, the cuddlefish would have starved to death or pursued easier prey. Neither path leads to the present condition under natural selcetion alone, thus evolutionary theory is either incomplete or completely inaccurate. Other such examples include the girraffe, a mussle that requires the intervention of a particular species of minnow to reproduce, and a species of cave insect that only exists in the Mammoth Cave system with no apparent relatives anywhere else. Now this doesnt' p[rove anything either, and Dr. Martin has chosen ID as his alternative theory, which certainly can be wrong. But to assume that the current state of science is correct, in the face of history, is simply assurting another ideology. I may have not been clear but I was not claiming that there is only one, unchanging gravitational theory and that it addresses what gravity is as opposed to how gravity works. Evolutionary theory does fall into the same category as gravitational theory - it makes predictions based on observations and changes when new information is discovered. In addition, evolution works in infinitesimally small increments of change from generation to generation and so obviously can't be observed in a single human lifespan yet the evidence can still be measured and documented, much like the "unobservable" yet predictable behavior of subatomic particles. Also, just because Dr. Jobe Martin (who is a dentist, by the way) can't explain how some animals evolved their particular traits doesn't mean that it is beyond professional biologists.

What do you propose? I propose Un-Intelligent Design. It's got graphs so it must be true!

How come it has taken three years until I learned of BitCoin, and this forum? I base the time elapse on what I believe to be one of the first post in the General Discussion area authored by satoshi on November 22, 2009, 06:31:44 PM. Bitcoin Maturation Posted:Thu 01 of Oct, 2009 (14:12 UTC)
From the user's perspective the bitcoin maturation process can be broken down into 8 stages.
This appears to be a very popular forum, yet I just learned of it within the hour. Of course I have yet to understand what this is all about, and I will do as the registration rules direct: I will try to find most preliminary answers by reviewing past postings - I hope this does not take very long. Anyway, I would not be surprised if the question about the secret marketing is kept a secret, as well. secret marketing? most people here try to get the word out whenever they can. i can't think of a single person here who is trying to keep things secret. by the way, how did you find this forum, or first hear of bitcoin? payb.tc took the words right out of my mouth. Heck, I'm putting together a Convention with free admission to try and educate people about bitcoins!

Your posts are confusing. Is it a raffle or is it a lottery?

The fact is these arguments do not provide an answer to the actual request.
To the person with the tribal people, see the word "partial". If you guys don't want to play the game, it's fine.
Therein lies your problem, Atlas. This thread comes across as either an off-the-cuff game with poorly defined rules, or a serious wager that hasn't been carefully considered or defined.
