what scares me about the sheer audacity of the sea level rising doomsayers is that any "hard" science they have is based on measurements taken at the edge of the Pacific Rim - in a region of Alaska around the town of Newtok that is *sinking*.

When you throw in such memes as "Think of the children!" or "If you don't agree, you're a terr'rist!", it's pretty fucking easy to change people's minds - without them ever being aware or realising that you just took their stupidity and rammed it up their arses with a weakest-of-the-weak thought-ending cliché.
When it affects them to their serious detriment, however, few even then will know what's hit them. If it blows by with nary a breeze or better, with good to excellent result, it's often dismissed as a stroke of good luck.

By this logic, it would be perfectly safe to drink out of a spring post-holocaust (I'm thinking not; a tapwell, maybe, but not an open spring - hard radiation would likely not penetrate deep enough to contaminate a water table, but between it and fallout, surface sources would be rendered unusable).
My current studio setup (some might say that's a laughable description) consists, in part, of two pair +1 Cambridge Soundworks FPS5100 satellites connected to an Acoustic Solutions DS222 5.1 sub, through six-point output of a Muse Gamesurround card. The speaker interconnects are bulk 3 amp lamp flex, the signal cables are Techlink Blues I got in a fire sale.
no, you can't be jailed indefinitely for contempt. The one-off sentence varies from two to ten years, you could be out in a week, but to claim indefinite sentences is misleading and afoul of the Eight Amendment of the United States Bill of Rights, Article 5 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 99 of the Geneva Convention, UN1957 Rule 31, and the UN Declaration on the Protection of All Persons from Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (1975). To name but a few naughties. On a more basic level, it also falls afoul of the Double Jeopardy rule - you can't be tried twice for the same offence (unless, according to a rule amendment in the Criminal Justice Act (UK), evidence comes to light that did exist but was unavailable previously, or the case is one of terrorism or major fraud. Yeah, WHAT!?).
You can NOT delete a Facebook account. You can remove wallposts, but they remain on the database. You can deactivate the account but it will persist for several weeks. but you CANNOT delete the account!
common to most other similar material found on the front of computer magazines, the images were accompanied by public domain type licensing documents. Or restrictive licenses in the case of software (in this case it was a giveaway version of Paint Shop Pro which was also on the disc, free on proviso that the user registered for a free key). As it's always useful to have such documents attached to an image either via linking from source or as meta information, I tend to avoid copyright issues either by citing the image source (hence to the attached license) or by creating my own image, by whatever means at my disposal.
...I picked up a DVDROM off the front of a magazine several years ago which had no less than 46,000 paintings digitally reproduced in printable resolution - including some of the more famous (Da Vinci's Mona Lisa and Il Cenacolo or L'Ultima Cena, Van Gogh's Tournesols, Van Eyck's Adam And Eve and The Adoration Of The Lamb, to name but a few). I've still got that disc somewhere. If the school need a decent source, they should see me.
Just one person wearing a mask won't cut it. It needs to be widespread, viral and most importantly, spontaneous.
Preferably everyone wears the same mask.
Refer V For Vendetta for what kind of logistical nightmare this would present. Not to mention getting the message to people the purpose of such disguise.

um... how? Tides are solely influenced by gravitational interaction with the Moon and the Sun.

yeah, this is a cyclic phenomenon that occurs approximately every twelve months.
This. Oh, God, this.
That's not the link you're looking for.

rectify the testbed lack.
'cos there's nothing more likely to cause immediate termination of your employment than a bit of rogue code taking down the bread of the business.
Test it first.

I gotta say, it sounds frackin' sweet.
Will it be the Holy Grail of digital formats; as good as studio DAT?
More importantly, will it play on current-generation or even Gen-1 equipment?
Talk to Kevin Mitnick. As a young teen he was prohibited by court order from owning a computer or operating a touchtone phone until his 18th birthday.

yeah, that's called spoliation and it's a criminal offence.
in context: must is comparable to "can choose not to and eat the punishment".
In some circumstances, the punishment may be preferable.

um... it's mandated by law over there?
People see speed camera, they stand on the brakes. Shunt.
People see red light camera, and the light changes, they stand on the brakes. Shunt.
Traffic enforcement cameras are the third most dangerous thing on the road. The second is drunk drivers, the first is CELLPHONES!

don't know about LR but with a 14.8gr pellet I can part a rabbits ears at 180 yards with a spring air rifle. I've actually dropped one at 140.
