Office 2008 also lacked Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) support, leaving it with only 15 months of additional mainstream support compared to its predecessor. Google even brings some of these bins on the road — at the 2008 Google I/O event at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, Calif., Google provided bins filled with snacks to attendees. Stewart, who took The Daily Show from a little watched variety show and turned it into one of the most followed and passionately defended liberal programs in America, wouldn’t even have to try to entertain at our fictional dinner party; we’re just assuming that his honesty, wit and talent for satire would be enough to justify his place at the table. We’re big fans of George Harrison, who did some of the most impressive songwriting in the history of the Beatles, but we can’t rightly invite old George. One of the most celebrated musicians and songwriters of all time, Paul McCartney is also an active philanthropist and a man we can’t rightly imagine a dinner party of this magnitude without. Regardless of whether you were getting Mrs. Doubtfire Robin Williams or Good Will Hunting Robin Williams, he’s one man whose energy and exuberance would make him the life of the party.

You had to know we weren’t getting through list this without including a Beatle, and at that point the real question becomes… Want a list of solar eclipses for the next 10,000 years? You’ll then need to enter the date and the time and change the time zone if you want. You’d have to keep an eye on him during the party, though; this wily old rocker has a habit of finding his way into some trouble, and we sure don’t want any of that nasty business happening at our dinner party! Murray. We don’t feel like the man needs much more an introduction than that, but we’ll do our best. Just don’t get him talking about Nixon, alright? Make sure they’re in an accessible place, where you can get to them if there’s a fire emergency. A candle can help make your space feel more relaxing. With the immense shuttle development costs looming, the Grand Tour was cancelled and replaced with a more modest mission profile. Scientists are curious about the amount of radiation humans will be exposed to during a possible manned mission.

Scientists named this stuff “dark energy”. In this edition of How Stuff Will Work, you will get to see just how Goodwin’s electromagnetic propulsion system works and how it could send spacecraft deep into space. Until now, the Midex program accepted bids for projects encompassing entire space exploration missions that cost no more than US$140 million. More importantly, she is often recognized as one of the most independent and confident women of her era, helping to break the mold of female domesticity and pushing forward feminist ideals by consistently breaking conventions. Most importantly, she’d bring a feminine perspective on a traditionally male dominated genre, a welcome addition to any intelligent conversation. A man who often oscillated between deranged lunatic and intimate, articulate social commentator, Thompson’s antics and insight would be sure to entertain and enlighten so long as you were able to keep the notorious party animal sitting long enough to hold a conversation. Jett, who rose to prominence in the mid 1970s with the Runaways, eventually moved to New York and continued to make noise (pun intended) in the rock and roll scene, eventually joining forces with The Blackhearts so as to create some really classic rock and roll tunes.

Richards, who is known throughout the world of rock and roll as an interesting (if odd) sort of fellow, would undoubtedly have a bevy of stories to tell… He could regale the party with funny stories of his time on SNL; he could engage in deep conversations about the nature of existence and working with Wes Anderson; hell, he could even tell us funny stories about stealing the French fries right off of people’s plates. We’re reaching way back into the annals of history again, this time even further than Katherine Hepburn to invite the literary innovator Gertrude Stein to our humble little dinner party. We’re sure that she’d have plenty of incredible stories from her time in Paris, and we’d also pay good money to hear what it was like to go out and have a round of beers with legendary authors like Fitzgerald and Hemingway. We’re reaching back a little bit to select the next woman on our list, and we’ve chosen an actress who went by the name of Hepburn to occupy a spot at the table. Best known for tracks like “I Love Rock and Roll,” Jett would make a fascinating dinner guest; who doesn’t like to listen to stories about rock and roll?
