U.S. Withholding Satellite Data
plover writes "Because of Congressional legislation passed quietly in 2003, the Air Force Space Command will no longer distribute space surveillance data via NASA. There was supposed a three year transitional period where the data was to be made available via a NASA web site, but earlier this month their transitional server went down hard, and NASA has decided to not rebuild it. (It was scheduled to be shut down on 31 March 2005 anyway.) The only way to obtain satellite data now is by signing up with the official Space-Track website. Part of the agreement to obtaining data from their site is that you agree to not redistribute their data. Of course, amateurs are still free to redistribute their observations, including those of classified satellites."

Actually, after looking at a Playboy for the first time today, I would have to say yes. I never bought porn and none of my friends buy playboy, my friend's brother just happened to leave one in his truck. I've heard Playboy is basically a topless Maxim so I went thru the magazine. There were 5 (nude) pictures in the centerfold section and maybe 2 or 3 outside of that. The magazine is mostly articles, and some of them were actually interesting. When I want to look at porn, I'll stay with the 90+ gigs of movies on my computer, when I want to know the best way to convince a girl to have a threesome, I'll read Playboy.
In soft, smooth strokes. Yes.
Like that, only softer. Yes.
Harder now. Yes.
Faster. Yes.
That's it. Yes. Yes. YES. YES!
Eazy, now.. Soooooft... eeeeazyyyyy... ahhhaaaa.. ahhhaaa.

UH.. WHAT? UH.. NOTHING.. NOTHING AT ALL! Just looking up some PROGRESS charts! Yeah, that's it.
Uh.. the stuff on the floor? Uh... White-out! yeah I was studying the floor for gramatical errors, yeah, And just look how many I found!
I'm from Brussels, Belgium. Your president is here today at Nato and the EU discussing about how we can improve relationship between our two countries). man you should see the messed it's caused here, i can't even park my car in front of my house because it might cause a threat to the president.
Last night there was this huge demonstration in front of the american embassy. It was really impressive to see how people from over here are still mad at Bush for the war in Iraq and american foreign policy in general. However I don't agree with the demonstrator because i don't think our policy is very much different from yours.
Anyway my point is : you slashdotters are really good at complaining about your government, but hey, you elected them. Did you guys at least go to the polls ? And what did you vote ? I bet 51 % voted Bush.
Reading Playboy to figure out how to have a threesome????
You know that the answer is to knock your mom and sister in the head with a club in order for you to have a threesome!
If you mod me down, I *will* introduce you to my sister!
