Don't worry the US airforce won't be reduced to one stealth fighter, or even 200. The F-22 would be a frontline fighter but once we killed off enough of their AA capability other planes could also reliably carry out missions. The F-16 is slated to stay in service until 2025, future refits might even extend it.
If they didn't bother to make the drug in the first place, the patient would be in the same situation. Though I do agree that the cooperations markup price more than needed. Should the government be running drug research labs and then making the result available for others to produce?
Who's going to research new drugs if the work will be stolen and sold for just the cost of production? The companies that need to do the research and then go through years of trials for approval needs the charge higher to make back the money they invest and to have funds for future research. Now asking what's the right amount to charge that gets tricky. there won't be any market forces since they'll be the only ones producing it.
Wolfe-Simon's team took mud containing bacteria from the arsenic-rich Mono Lake and grew them in ever decreasing concentrations of phosphorous. Their rationale was that since arsenic is just below phosphorous in the periodic table, and shares many of its chemical properties and is even used as a source of energy for some bacteria, the bugs would be able to swap one for the other. That is just what happened.
.Steven Benner, a chemist from the Foundation for Applied Molecular Evolution in Gainesville, Florida, who works on alternative forms of DNA, is sceptical that the bacteria really do contain arsenic. "I doubt these results," he says, since in order to measure the modified DNA it has to be put into a water-containing gel, which would rapidly dissolve any arsenate molecules. Any hypothesis that arsenate might replace phosphate in biomolecules must take this into account, he says.
that would require the user to tell the grenade where the person is. It much easier to kill everything around it, maybe there's more than one person behind cover.
Shrapnel propelled by HE is going to traveling much faster than the round. A hand grenade with 60 grams TNT has a kill range of about 20 meters.

I agree, this set of cables really didn't expose any coverups or such. It just released government documents for the sole purpose of embarrassing the US State Department. If there was something they wanted to get out it was only needed to release that particular cable with the pertinent information.
They can recruit women from eastern Europe where there are light skinned Muslims. Also there might be some that are willing to do it for money for a loved one or just have a grudge against the US.
To be fair it's not just hijacking the plane that's a concern. Sometime their goal is to just blow up the plane. Don't think we had any hijacks attempts but there has been attempts to light explosives.

He should get a good plea deal too since I'm sure the government is very interested in exactly what was on that CD.
I hear Google's Orkut is big in asia.

China does nothing so it can keep making its profits.
Of course not, they are rolling cities not flying ones.
Still watch this when it shows up on TV,
God I hope not, I hate the cold. By the time it hits that cold though, I'll probably be dead, one way or another.

What's really sad is that the broadcasters weren't smart enough to take care of it before congress got involved.

From the New Scientist article. While it's possible, it hasn't been found in nature. The article also mentions why it might be unlikely. http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn19805-arseniceating-bacteria-point-to-new-life-forms.html

Hey come on, we need to export something. Weapons and agriculture is about the only things we have left.

Until the next set of documents are leaked.
Then what about ceramic knives?
How does that line up with parallel universes? Are universes both infinite in series and parallel? infinite^2 universes?
Not to mention the students pay the university. 200*semester tuition = much money

The US keeps better numbers since it has more significant figures.
Seems it time for version 2.
I might have to buy two seats just be sure I don't have a naked lard ass flowing over onto my seat.
