Depends on how DNS is set up and what an organization thinks should receive traffic destined for a domain that hasn't specified a host. For quite a few places that will send a user to a server that www resolves to as well, but that doesn't have to be the case.
he says that the world's economic markets have become unprecedentedly more even (more of a level playing field) in the Internet age. Explain that to the countries that have stopped export of their food production.
Yes - congress is granted the right to declare war:
To declare war, grant letters of marque and reprisal, and make rules concerning captures on land and water;
To raise and support armies, but no appropriation of money to that use shall be for a longer term than two years;
1. That's the legislature - not the executive branch.
2. The majority of the federal contracts violate this 2 year maximum. Many federal military contracts are 5 year contracts.
The last time I checked, SSA, Medicare/Medicaid and HUD were not explicitly mentioned as a role of our government in the Constitution, while Defense most certainly is. Unlike so many wrong-headed individuals, I believe that unless the Constitution actually grants a power to the Federal government, then it DOES NOT have it, regardless of what others may wish to be the case. Interesting you should bring up your support for our military as a constitutional item and then bring up from the constitution that they don't have it unless granted. So yes - the constution grants the federal government the need for defense. Nowhere in there however do I see it the right to declare war (preemptive strike) against a sovereign nation.
Last I checked attacking somebody isn't defense. If you'd like to argue otherwise - i'll gladly come visit you and apply your theories. If in the event I end in court for manslaughter - I can simply point to your own arguments that it was defense.
"Progressive" = Liberal = Socialist. So according to your math - the only way for this country to progress is to have liberals and socialists. Even more interesting that you wouldn't vote for any of these. If you are so against progress, then how are you even on a computer? Technology is progress.
Get real jobs and either get insurance through work or start shelling out the ~150-200 a month it costs to get it on your own. Some people do work real jobs and can not afford health insurance. Even the low end you are giving of 150-200 a month (it's closer to 300-500 a month in my area) is difficult when you are earning $10 a hour (far higher than the minimum wage). Even before any taxes are applied (sales, income (state and federal), FICA, etc...) that leaves $1600 a month. Knocking off $200 from that doesn't leave much - especially in an area where a single room can cost between $500 and $1000 a month.
Interesting you happen to cover waste disposal and CFC's in a single post. While CFC can significantly reduce energy consumption, they pose a significant issue to waste disposal as they contain Mercury and can not easily be disposed. Their longer life span does help reduce the frequency they must be disposed of, but it is still a hazardous material none the less. LEDs seem to present a much better alternative for light as they can provide a brighter, more controlled spectrum while significantly reducing energy consumption even over CFC bulbs.
I'm going to say it: 2010 will be the year of the Linux desktop! Thanks to MS!
While I wish this were true - people are sheep and will do anything they are told to do - especially if they are told it is in their 'best interest' or that it is for their 'safety and security'. Whether or not these things are true - people as a whole (obviously excluding most Slashdot readers.) are sheep that believe corporations are really out for the consumers best interests.
Microsoft costs more than many machines it runs on. It has bugs and problems galore. Yet they still hold the market. Not because it is a better product, but because critical mass still dictates people want what their friends and neighbors have.
Everything outside the firewall is subject to surveillance? Most everything inside the firewall has the same fate as well. Either through corporate policy or an ever increasing botnet.
Not to mention the value of an electron microscope to determine bit patterns that were written previous to the current state. A low level bit copy would give you a copy of the current state of the hard drive. The original would give you previous states as well.
Then we should launch an invasion on most companies out there. We must bring down the dictators. The only safe companies would be the ones who don't use secretaries or Dragon Naturally Speaking.
The Pakistani government didn't mess with anything. They told the ISP to block access to YouTube. The ISP didn't mess with DNS (although it may have been less problematic but people can easy specify an alternate DNS server or run their own) the ISP sent out false BGP routes. That's why Pakistan was dropped from the net by their upstream provider for a while to clear out the false route propagation.
Messing with DNS records wouldn't be like demolishing their house. More like removing the name from the mailbox so people could only get there by the address.
There is plenty of wasted energy while driving that could be converted from heat back to something more usable.. Some electric cars are beginning to maximize the return of energy rather than just wasting is.
I can completely picture one guy in his garage puffing his smoke around a system that leaks and causes a chain reaction between homes taking the whole neighborhood out like the hindenburg.
Why would I want to slow global warming? It simply fulfills revelations that the world will end in heat and fire. I'm sure some god will place me in a lovely place when the rapture happens for all i've done to support them. Now if I could only figure out which god will take care of me during the rapture.. Perhaps I should hedge my bets...

Snow leopard would be a clean (as snow) version of leopard.. Sounds about right for this release!
Great! Time to use the document to it's fullest, call a constitutional convention, and set it straight.

Did you miss the memo? The US Govt has been privatized. The primary shareholders are Haliburton, Exxon-Mobile, and Saudi Arabia.
It's just difficult to transfer a that volume of bills out of the country..

You mean you take your tinfoil hat off? I find it gets great reception!

It was supposed to be funny.. Apparently it sailed past you and didn't stop like the Titanic.
http://www.popularmechanics.com/automotive/new_cars/4251491.htmlCars are already getting ready to come out that are air powered and can hit 1000 miles per fill. That's 100 times further than the 10 miles you're offering.

Interesting... When looking at images at http://nsidc.org/ - There is distinctly less ice now in 2008 than there was in 2006...
