I propose that European Union pages that mention the accounts be flagged for investigation, as the accounts have not been signed off as accurate due to the level of fraud and corruption for 16 years in a row.. 16 years of fraud accounts
Maybe someone will eventually be arrested, charged, and convicted over these frauds and corruption. I won't hold my breath.
Maybe if forensic accountants went through Hollywood's REAL accounting books (not the fake accounts they present the public), then they would find all this missing revenue, like how gazzillion $$$ earning films somehow don't break even - yeah right!?!
Look on the bright side, what with the police not liking themselves being filmed, what video evidence can there be of any police brutality with cameras not working?
Don't be surprised by this, the Irish government has history on bowing to lobby groups. The government got billions from the European Union (Brussels) to vote FOR a treaty that was AGAINST the people's interests in having it signed. However with a totally one sided BS campaign of lies by the Irish government, the people voted to sign away Ireland to Brussels control, and the government got it's blood money in return.
As a side comment, will the Irish be blocked from accessing Canadian websites due to the Canadian record companies pirating of their own artists?
Speaking as a non American, this is how the USA looks today to non Americans. The USA economy is broke, bust, only surviving by the willingness of countries like China to prop you up. Like many Western countries, you sent your manufacturing economy abroad, believing in the fairy story of "Intellectual Property" as the new way of making money.
Intellectual Property is worthless, especially to the many countries that don't care about it. It's not as if the USA cares about fair trade, using geopolitical muscle to frighten smaller states into submission.
If you keep on electing the same morons who push controls on the internet for big corporate friend donors, then the only person you can blame is yourself.
If you hire all those humans to check the content, just think of all those minds that will be corrupted from the content they are supposed to sift through.
Will probably be seen as a troll for these comments, but this is what it feels like to those that actually pay the taxes in the UK (not the freeloaders who back the "games").
When you add in all the costs of all the bits that are counted as someone else's budget for building for the Olympics, £20bn will have been wasted on a two week event. The 2012 legacy will be massive debt for the taxpayers to pay off, while "sponsors" laugh all the way to the bank.
Who does the "games" benefit? The politicians who love to grandstand with someone else's money, the construction industry who are big donors to the political parties, and the athletes who love bumming off others taxes and sponsorship instead of getting a job.
The TV companies have already promised saturation garbage coverage in the UK of the "games".
Why bother with adding noises. Increasingly were I am people don't care and just walk out into the road expecting a car driver to stop in zero feet, or people more interested in their phone conversations they just step into the road, or they are otherwise playing with their phones / MP3 players and not looking at the traffic. This is WITH petrol and diesel cars making lots of noise.
Having said that, adding a noise to electric cars helps the blind that walk around, there is no benefit to noise for non-disabled people.
Blocking a website is fairly trivial to get around. But if only BT were more interested in blocking all the spam phone calls they pretend they can't block.. because they make lots of money from these spamming phone calls.
I can block an IP in hosts, or ads with browser plugins, but BT claim they can't block phone calls even thought THEY know the number. Hypocrites who are only after money.
Well, so they took down those "porn" websites, but one has to ask, why the authorities have done nothing, preferring to sit on their backsides? Politicians or police using such sites and they want to cover it up?
So the naughty stuff under parental blocks will be under "U can't touch this", the adult stuff will be "Yo sweetness!", and a special category for politics "Help the children".
U.S. Intelligence has hired social scientists to mine the vast resources of the Internet
Just a point, stop calling them "social scientists", they are not scientists, and it degrades the value of hard science of myself and others here that went to university for.
So what about Microsoft's claims. Is Internet Exploder 9 standards compliant? I tested a design in IE8 and ONLY IE managed to screw up CSS drop down menu, needing Javascript to get around the stupid IE bug. Meanwhile Firefox, Chrome, Chromium, Opera and Safari in Win, Linux and iPad all render properly.
Nobody cares about Microsoft's claims if they can't even be bothered to fix BASIC rendering bugs, it's 2011 not 1990. That's why Microsoft are losing to the competition.
People in a twist about being an opt in or opt out of porn. The bigger picture is they are censoring something, and as soon as the government sees it working on porn, they they will decide to roll it on to another "objectionable" content, and slowly chip away until they get to stop you looking at political opposition websites.
Not just judges that need science education, it's the politicians who seem to thrive on junk science and present it as fact. Politicians across the globe are dangerously uneducated, which makes them dangerous when making laws.
I do not mind if there was a charge for Linux, although being free is nice.
I decided to try Linux because as each iteration of Windows came about, more and more things get locked down so the user cant do things. For testing I still have a Windows install (used rarely), but by going from WinXP to Win7, even silly things like recording "What you hear" from the sound system have been locked down. It's this constant locking down of features that drove me to Linux.
Leaving aside major changes like KDE3 to KDE4, at least I am free to change the desktop the way I like, and not some way Microsoft wants you to "experience" in Windows.
One thing I will say, sometimes you can't get people to Linux no matter how many Live Distros you run showing their really old computer can be used again at a faster speed with up to date Linux compared to an ancient copy of Windows (and is too old to run up to minute Windows).
In Linux it appears most the loading takes place before the login screen, then what remains is the users desktop after login, but it appears usable as soon as it appears. Certainly on my distro the only thing that slows down the desktop loading in using Superkaramba apps because there are no decent KDE4 widget replacements.
My Win7 install is frustrating, just like other version of Win, where the desktop looks like it's loaded, but you don't really know how long it will take until the OS releases control to the user. Microsoft seem to have gone for the "show something is happening" to make it look fast, rather than actually being fast.

And what is there to prevent a government transmitting from the ground to disrupt the satellite transmission?

I beg to differ with the scientists, I've found an even smaller black hole, my girlfriend's purse!

Hopefully won't be used like in this episode of Big Bang Theory! :)

LP's have a "limited playback license"...?
Probably limited due to how used the stylus is. :)
Sooner or later, even the government catches up with the thieves.
The problem is, at least in the UK, is that the GOVERNMENT are the thieves.
