I am complaining and I have left. I actually logged on to say that this does not belong on Slashdot, even though it is funny. I am here because I was sent a link to this.
So the parent gets modded up for pointing out a typo in the summary, but I pointed out a typo in a previous article and got modded down as offtopic. The moderators are rather inconsistent. The funny thing is that the typo in the previous article is still there.
Meanwhile, n article on it discusses the US's own approach...

It would help if the editors would proofread to avoid speling errors. (Mispelled on purpose)
No, I said the people applying should censor the bad stuff of off their pages since colleges and work are using those pages to decide admittance. I don't agree with that practice, but that is the way it is for now.
Almost everyone does censorship in order to look better. Unfortunately, there are some fools who apply for college and work that can't seem to figure out that it is a good idea to keep the bad stuff off of their social networking sites.
Those who sell copied goods for a profit are truly evil. Nobody should ever give them any business. If you don't want to buy a legit copy, then download it. It is still morally questionable, but at least it is better than encouraging profiteering from it.
Wow, I actually had to read that page for myself to verify that. So they actually admit that they are engaging in "man in the middle attacks." I hope they get in big trouble for hacking and forgery, since that is what they admit to doing.
Today is Constitution Day, the birthday of the Constitution. It is really sad that the state and federal governments continue to step all over the Constitution. Police state indeed; the people need to wake up and protest this sort of garbage.
As I mentioned, the sample pool was biased so it is difficult to make anything of the results. It would be nice to have a survey with a better sample pool.
It was based off a study that was done some time ago. One of the findings was that for females, once they go past a certain weight (I don't remember what it was, and I don't feel like looking this up) they hit puberty. The CNN article you mention mentions obesity possibly being a factor for the early puberty. I think it must be referencing that study.
I RTFA since the summary is not very good, but I don't see any conclusive results as to who would be better with the imbalanced sample pool. It is very difficult to predict how the candidates will act once in power. I didn't expect that Bush would ignore the Constitution as bad as he did once he got in power, so we are still open to surprises for either candidate.
And people wonder why girls are hitting puberty so much earlier now.
That is because children have much better nutrition than there used to be. As a result, they are able to reach puberty sooner because of better health.
A few days ago, there was a article about Best Buy planning to have Windows Gurus to push Vista. WIth the acquisition of Napster, I am not sure what kind of monster will be created.
Generally speaking the government doesn't want you having any privacy whatsoever so their automatic assumption is that you don't have rights unless the courts force them to acknowledge them. I don't think that the EFF and the ACLU are going to sit idle on this but lately the government (Dem controlled mind all you Obama-will-fix-everything believers) has been passing very repressive legislature. I fully expect there to be a lot more legislature in the pipes on this in the near future. None of it in our (working class) favor, of course.
Unfortunately, the Government wants to do away with the constitution. This is why it is important to support the EFF, ACLU, and others in order to protect the constitution.
And that brings up another problem; winner take all for almost all of the states for the presidential election. I prefer to vote someone other than the two major candidates, one that actually will obey the Constitution. However, because of the current system, my vote does NOT count. Why then should I even bother voting if my opinion does not even matter at all?
The police are interested in the smaller crimes that make their area lots of money rather than major crimes that hurt people. In California, they are more interested in people talking on cell phones than actual crimes. I have multiple drug houses in my area and nothing seems to be done about it.
"1. Vote third party."
Go Ahead! Throw Your Vote Away!
As if your vote actually counted anyways in most states where the outcome has already been decided based on voting history. I already know that the democrats will win in California, so there is no point for me to vote in my state.
Actually, it doesn't matter who you vote for at all since the two candidates are really the same; they and their parties will continue to ignore the constitution.

Cool, another Pinto, but electric this time. I'm sure the story is overblown, but anything that stores energy is going to be a fire risk.

How the hell is pointing out an editor's error in the summary offtopic? It must be stupid moderator week here on Slashdot.

Or they could be using the Lego space sets to make the space station.
And it's not like their competition (experts-exchange) is setting the aesthetic bar that high, ya know?
Slashdot's Idle section doesn't help either.
Only IPv6? We could have had a IP V8. :-D

And if you're wrong? If the majority wishes to vote for the same candidate as you?
Like hell they will. They are too caught up believing that there are only two political parties and vote accordingly.

How about posting a link to the documentary instead? http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4463776866669054201 Watch it before it gets pulled like it was on Youtube.
Wasn't there a story some time ago about increased volcanic activity at the North Pole that was warming up the water?
