The CKK judgement was suppoosed to be released after the close of markets to stave off a run of share transfers before the weekend.
According to él Register the report was emailed out 2 hours before time, which meant trading could happen for those fortunate enough to get such a mail before everyone else. Slashdot even reported it _before_ time.
So, if you want to become a vegetarian, this is truly the right reason. but please, be sensical about it, and don't talk about what you don't know
tbh I couldn't agree more but you do miss one vital aspect. AFAIK Meat is more perishable than grain.
I went vegan for these very reasons. Meat production is wasteful, it was only later that I became concerned with the cruelty.
The destruction of food in the EU is to maintain a false market because govt. is in the hands of the landowner, not the citizen.
In ancient Rome food was free, the Emperor was expected to provide for his capital city. Now that we are civilised, the landowners use penury and starvation as a threat instead of a one way trip to the colosseum.
And for once we can, in all honestly, blame the French - for that is the legacy of the Norman Conquest - modern parliament.
One possible starting point is to stipulate a minimum amount of renewable water per head of the population, and to treat countries having less than this as "water short". At levels of internal renewable water availability of less than 1,000 cubic meters per head, FAO regards water as a severe constraint on socio-economic development and environmental protection. It has been estimated that 20 countries will be at or below this level by the year 2000 (FAO, 1995). Most of these are in North Africa and the Middle East. At levels of water availability of less than 2,000 cu.m. per head, water is regarded as a potentially serious constraint, and a major problem in drought years. 40 countries will fall into this category by 2000 (FAO, 1993).

What if our tax dollars/pounds/yen/euros went to a great big supercomputer we could all data mine through?
Lets have less privacy, not more of it!
Webcams in *every* toilet please.
Record all phone calls and have them made publicly available.
A URL for every email and a record of all my shopping would be a great help too.
Think of the possibilities.
Let's Open Source Our Lives, we've got nothing to hide.
plan9 users a multi-computer concept
1 : file server - all it does is serve files and does backups to WORM. HD Crash only loses todays changes.
2 : auth server - boots from the file server and issues authentication. crash - np reboot it and off you go
3 : cpu server - runs the programs, if it crashes then so what, only data in it's memory will be corrupt, the file server will not have crashed
4 : terminals - bootstrap from a floppy/cdrom/localhd to get authed and then into booting from the file server [or run a windows/bsd/linux client]
One can then add new nodes for redundancy and scale. Local terminals can have local storage if desired
Clusternig is not a buzz word.

one and the same
you can even schedule it in to your diary.
turn the web cam back to base off tho.
Their name is Thorn-EMI.
Arms manuafacturers.
That they don't care about people is not shock.
Besides X:\Programs is a lie because that folder also contains configuration files, backups of replaced files, data files etc.etc.
what they need to come up with is something like
\bin
\etc
\usr\$HOME
hmm, I think I've seen that before somewhere, maybe it was Xenix
like plan9 does
no root = fewer nasty accidents
by moving stuff out of the kernel and into user space
foot shooting is still possible but by no means so easy as rm -rf * in the wrong directory.
[having a file server with NO user space and automated versioned backups built in helps too]
what should really focus your mind is how easy the ports system makes life.
:
Want a FAMP webserver
#pkg_add -r apache13
#pkg_add -r mod_php4
#pkg_add -r mysql323-server
As brute force will open it, even if that means making every possible shaped key or just the mundane big enough hammer.
they help preserve the environment

Also interesting is the analysis
5000 gallons per pound = wasteful

Feeding soy beans to cows to make meat is one of the grossest misuse of resources in farming.
5,000 gallons of water per pound of beef.
When water is becoming a scarce commodity it makes no sense.
The rest of the unix world seems to realize that the kernel maintainers should also handle the basic userland applications.
That's odd because the developers of Unix went on to write plan9 and that moves even more stuff out of the kernel and into the user space.
So your motives mean nothing to me 8)
Want to stop the war in Iraq and reduce the stranglehold?
Want to reduce the carcinogens?
Like the smell of fish and chips?
Use Biodiesel
and leave the comedy to the experts
The hippies round here use bio-diesel.
I know cos I take 25 liters out of the 1000 a month the co-op buys.
just send me $500 and I'll sent you some diverse items.

it is logical that one could ignore the email and still be interested in the product so in fact 0.02% is probably a low estimate.
Governments exist to protect the people, not to forward corporate interests.
As any institution eventually they exist to ensure their own survival.
