As the title of this post suggests, I have AVG free edition (yes, I know... it's bad). It's due to renew in 2 weeks with the new version. Amazingly, with only a short time to go on the free edition it detected a "generic trojan" for the first time (despite daily scans and relatively safe online behaviour) last week... just after the nag pop-ups started to appear. It recommended that I upgrade to the paid version. No online scan (eg. House Call from Trend Micro) seems to identify this heuristically detected "generic trojan" in my Sony-Ericcson phone management software. Convenient that it happens now, I thought. Guess who's switching to Avast? sarcasm Although maybe I should stick to this new version of Antivirus7... errrrr, I mean AVG. sarcasm/
My user name was meant to be "Ole Biscuitbarrel" which is also an MP ref, with an accent mark over the first 'e,' but/.'s way of handling characters it doesn't like in the registration process is to simply ignore them, which is pretty lame. I should just reregister as Tarquin Fintimlinbinwhinbimlim Bus Stop F'tang F'tang or the like.
2. YOUTUBE. When they find the badger song, you're DONE. You can seek a good asylum at that point, and plan to come back when they're 35.
(ask me how I know).
"The original-source meta-tag will identify the newspaper that brakes a story"... So they want to slow down the distribution of original source stories?
I put on my tinfoil hat and proclaim that the insane conspiracy fantasies of right wing fundamentalist nutters are coming true? On second thoughts, I may need to be dosed up with a little more religion.... or LSD.
To quote Stephen's blog in response: "They’ve read an article that’s contrarian to some position widely held, or they’ve found some obscure fact that contradicts common interpretation. Some of them claim to have known it as innate fact, others claim it to be widespread common knowledge taught to every single person in elementary school.Of course, usually neither is true at all. Most of them are just contrarians."
I find that a perfectly reasonable argument to make. I've heard and indeed stated myself that the swastika by itself is meaningless, however I know that the context that almost any reasonable person would take it in is as a Nazi symbol. He appears to have considered the argument on it's merits as you've asked, so where's the problem?
The exact phrase to be re-tweeted is: "Crap! Robin Hood airport is closed. You've got a week to get your shit together, otherwise I'm blowing the airport sky high!"
Why is it that in jury trials she gets slapped with over a million in damages, yet judges appear to favour a milder approach? Are the "Jury of your peers" seriously that gullible that they feel they have to institute massive punitive damages on an individual?

Goddam it... you're being way too logical about an awesome plan for unified snack distribution!
Sadly... this isn't the first. These sorts of parks have even been lampooned in Bill Maher's Religulous.

Economy of scale.

But some call you... Tim?

Soooooo... how do you know?

Install yourself a copy of World of Warcrack and welcome to my opium den.

I suppose I should RTFA, but who the hell prosecuted him for this?
yet again, life is ubiquitous.
They can solve the Times crossword, *then* I'll be impressed.
Yes, because a lump of dead meat deserves respect. I won't object to you urinating on my corpse, my relatives however may.
I didn't expect that...
That in the early 90's that would have been a top end pc, and it's still probably more computing power than the space shuttle.

For all tense and purposes...
Sorry, but this is one of my pet hates... it's "For all intents and purposes". Think about it, it makes sense... unlike your version.
Has everyone forgotten Farscape????
A little off topic, but I'm just finishing the Void trilogy and I had a similar thought.
saying "We require more Vespene gas"
Then why does it state in the article that a jury awarded the damages and a judge overturned them? Hmmm?
There's a common denominator in the variability here... jury vs judge decision.
Why is it that in jury trials she gets slapped with over a million in damages, yet judges appear to favour a milder approach? Are the "Jury of your peers" seriously that gullible that they feel they have to institute massive punitive damages on an individual?
but do the addons account for full normalisation?
