of America in the nature of a private attorney general, under theories of a derivative action, as

Anytime you see the phrase "Private Attorney General", run... (it's one of those freemason-of-the-land catchphrases).

have a recognized right to seek derivative and direct and indirect relief against officials who have

Yeaahhh... uh-huh, sure.
The complaint is actually signed by a practicing attorney. I'm shocked it wasn't pro-se.
Or the car gets pushed an update file while you're doing 50mph, stores it for later, and installs it at some point when it's stopped and charging.
(Other options also include a polling mechanism where the car phones home for updated periodically when stopped, or a combination of the two where they push an "update is availible" flag, which signals the car to phone home and download/install it once it's stopped/charging).
But then Places like Comcast pay nearly minimum wage for the poor guys that do video conversion and upload, so if done late in the day the chance that they will just copy and call it done is high.
Sounds like that's the place to attack then - hand the minimum wage guy a USB stick and a bag of money.
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C37AZXK is $11 with free 2-day shipping for prime members (US). It's a cheap DV-B TV dongle using a chipset that has a "debug mode" where it spits out the raw RF data, and wide ranging tuning chip that makes it usable as a general purpose SDR reciever (known as an RTL-SDR). Windy's mentioned using one on her blog in many of her other posts.
I just got one this week, and it's been awesome to play with. Check out rtlsdr.org for more information about how to set it up, and rtl-sdr.com for a blog of cool projects you can do with it.
Because it will encourage you to brush more often? I'm good about brushing in the morning, but I'm very inconsistent at night (or consistent about not brushing).
If I had one of these, I'd keep it in my pocket and brush after every meal, snack, or peice of candy, or whenever my mouth felt I could use it. There'd be a big benefit in going from once or twice a day to 10-15 times a day.
It's not the streaming providers who are forcing the differentiated content, it's the content owners (such as CBS).
They don't want a single streaming provider to gain too much market share, because that provider would be able to dictate terms (like Apple/iTunes does with music). So, they enter into exclusive contracts with different providers for different subsets of their catalogs, to ensure things are spread out over the market.
It's not just that there are 7000+ districts, but they all have their own rules. Back in 2010, Washington had an extra tax on candy. However, Kit-Kat bars were exempt and charged at a normal food tax rate. Why? Because they happened to contain flour and were considered a baked good. Imagine trying to handle thousands of different jurisdictional rules across the millions of products Amazon carries. It'd be insane!
Sorry, but having seen the former permenant collection, I was incredibly disappointed at the temporary "Icons" exhibit. It's nowhere close to the original in scale or impact. It takes up only about a quarter of the space the other one did (when I was there, the part that used to have robots had a horror exhbit and they redid the wall so you can't even get to the part with the cool weapons and all the old pulp mags, let alone where the death star used to be). It's also way less dense, and has almost none of the literature scattered around that the old one used to.
There was an incredibly relevant article[1] in Analog Science Fiction & Fact recently. The basic premise is that it's not just smaller research telescopes that are valuable - in astronomy, even amateur observations are incredibly valuable (often because they happen to notice things the bigger telescopes aren't pointed at). The author details a large number of findings that are rooted in observations by amateurs.
Mr. Olusevi shouldn't limit himself to just $30,000 research telescopes. He should also be trying to get $300 telescopes in backyards all over Africa.

Boeing's one half of this little venture called "United Space Alliance" which was responsible for every shuttle launch. They're also half of the "United Launch Alliance" which runs all the Delta II, Delta IV and Atlas launches.
How many launches has Boeing performed? Most of them.
The Soyuz has a limited on-orbit lifetime though. After the recent loss of a cargo Soyuz, there was a threat we'd have to abandon the station if the currently docked capsule expired before they could re-certify the platform and launch a replacement mission. Being able to fly a rescue dragon to the station for re-enty could be a posisble way to avoid this in the future by allowing a crew to stay up longer.
That being said, it's of course incredibly unlikely that we'd see such an convergence of event during the short time between the certificiation of Dragon and that of Falcoln that would cause NASA to pay for such a flight. Since I doubt you could even fit much cargo on the passenger version on the empty ride up, it'd be incredibly expensive to do except in the case of extreme emergency.
Without knowing exactly what they did, it's reasonable to assume they searched his car. Generally, this requires a warrant unless it's incident to an arrest, and even then, there are limits.
There's not much legal precentdent either way as to whether or not slight radioactivity consitutes probable cause, but it's a very worrying slippery slope if it does. Cop wants to harras you? All he has to do is put a few drops of some nuclear medicine on your bumper (or worse, on your person) and you'll be stopped and searched thoroughly, just because he thinks you're guilty.
Hell, he can just claim you registered, search your car illegally and haul you in for whatever he finds.
If I send an email, did I share it with my ISP so it is not private?
Yes. See the Stored Communication Act (18 USC Â2701 - 2711), and United States v Lifshitz, (369 F3d 173 [2d Cir 2004]).

There's about 150 years of case law that declare that bank records can be subpoenaed with the defendant having no standing to move to quash. It's actually one of the main precedents the judge used in this case to squash the defendant's motion.
While I agree with you, and think the vast majority of the decision is very well reasoned, this quote scares the crap out of me:
The widely believed (though mistaken) notion that any disclosure of a user's information would first be requested from the user and require approval by the user is understandable, but wrong. While the Fourth Amendment provides protection for our physical homes, we do not have a physical "home" on the Internet. What an Internet user simply has is a network account consisting of a block of computer storage that is owned by a network service provider.
If that becomes a set precedent, it will have an incredibly chilling effect on online privacy.

Far more likely to take him to Andrews AFB.

You mean like IAM Roles for EC2 which makes credentials show up on your instance and the SDK uses them automatically? And which launched in 2012?
Seriously, it's as easy as S3Client s3 = new S3Client(); and the SDK does the rest. If devs are still hardcoding credentials, I have no sympathy.
Costal states that have large Navy ports?

The talk was originally given on Thursday, 7/31.
And none of the 9/11 Terrorists flew first class because why spend the extra money if you're going to crash or blow up the plane?
Uhhh, dude... all but one of the 9/11 Hijackers flew first or business class (mostly first) on their various flights.

All of the water in Seattle comes from 2 mountain rivers.
