This doesn't need a UN charter or treaty to put such a plan in place. Any country that opposes the free exchange of ideas can just cut themselves off from the free world. Problem solved.
A lot of the utility of Access comes from its built in set of data aware GUI controls that aren't available in other.NET applications that use winforms or VBA apps with userforms. Beyond language issues, the low level GUI tools for creating and managing tables and data and the query builder are more advanced than anything in the opensource world.
You're using statistics badly to come up with minuscule numbers to support a false argument.
First of all the Republican vs. Democrat demographics don't matter since this was a Republican only event. So we can reduce your 650K down to 160K. Consider that not all registered voters have a party affiliation so that number is also a little high. The total number of registered Republicans is 154K. Even though only 57K voted this is a large enough sample of the total pool of eligible voters to be considered significant. It isn't possible that all of the 30K who voted for O'Donnell were just the lunatic fringe and the remaining 27K were the rational old guard. I consider 30/57 = 52% pretty significant. Even 30/154 = 20% is noteworthy.
I've gotten used to the laggy feeling and jumpiness but what I can't stand is that after being trained to not have to enter a query it sometimes wipes out the final results and tells me I have to hit enter. WTF?
I generally mouse righty but I am equally comfortable going lefty (without a button swap). However, I use my left hand exclusively for pointing sticks and touchpads since that requires finer finger control than my right can provide without more practice.
That's the way it is in Debian which is why Ubuntu is doing it too. The reason is because they're using the modular configs for Apache2 and are making that explicitly clear.
I have Frontier DSL in Rochester. I'm close enough to the CO that I used to get usable 4.4Mb down. Too bad line quality issues down the street from my house have dropped that in half and there's nothing I can do about it because of the pitifully low definition of "broadband".
They should have designed the case so that you had the option to balance it on its clipped corner or let it sit like a normal box. If they stick around long enough I expect that to happen in a future redesign. It's only a matter of time before they get sued by someone who's kid put their eye out on the sharp corner sticking up on the top.
It's possible the article was wrong and they were using a Mazda rotary engine. These are commonly used for experimental/hobbyist aircraft because of a high power to weight ratio and a simplicity that translates into good reliability. Some of the triple and quad rotor variants can match or better the power output of the turbine they switched to.
For all the hype white LEDs get very few people take notice that even the most efficient types produce lower lumens per watt than halogen and HID lighting. i.e. They produce more heat for equivalent light output. It's unfortunate that LEDs get touted as "green" technology when that simply isn't the case.
Except that a contract needs to be negotiated to be valid and a click-through does not constitute a legal signature.
This case involves high-end software which typically involves a license management scheme unlike shrink wrap licenses and click-through EULAs. Nowadays the license procurement process is usually automated but there was a time when you had to work with an account rep. to negotiate and receive the license keys. It is possible that the court decision is limited to this type of software. Because the licensing is handled as a separate article from the (DMCA protected) software one could view the re-distribution of unwanted keys as a contractual violation. Essentially, you are paying for a key and getting a "free" piece of locked down software as part of the deal.
You've gotten used to the laissez faire form of copyright we all live with in the modern world where digital duplication is effortless and has no direct cost. A strict reading of copyright law indicates that any unauthorized copying outside the protections of fair use (excerpts, parody, etc.) is a violation even if you don't engage in distribution.
This is why the AHRA was put in place in the US for the narrow scope of personal music copying. Essentially, enough Congresspeople got upset about the implication that their personal mix tapes in the 80's were a violation of copyright that they created a little loophole to shut up the RIAA.
The cost isn't a signifier of importance. It is a repudiation of a self-serving system of law that punishes innocent people by forcing them to outlay large sums of money to protect themselves from rapacious litigants. When faced by a wealthy opposition, those of lesser means very often have to cave in and accept defeat simply because they have no means of defending themselves. Hopefully the loser-pays rules will be put to effect here but that doesn't justify the need to pay so much upfront for protection from the law.
FWIW. I knew who Singh was before this case came up.
There's no reason why healthy people can't consume near limitless amounts of salt (up to the point of over saturation) without harm. Yet, it is demonized to the point that we're forced to make do with food that is sub-par to satisfy some ignorant fools. Our bodies run on salt. It's the second most important agent after water for keeping our biological machinery running. Properly functioning kidneys will get rid of any excess without any ill effects. Popular opinion, however, has come up with the false idea that salt is a causative agent in heart disease so the nannies can stick their noses where it doesn't belong.
So what if Google is producing biased results. That's what they do. Their algorithm is already biased against SEO spam. Nobody's crying for those businesses.
The key point is that Google's "users" are getting a (mostly) free service in return for providing demographic data to their primary customers, the advertisers. There is no contract in place where Google agrees to operate without a bias. If someone wants to pay Google for placement then so be it.
The primary reason for longer turning lanes is to increase their capacity before turning traffic backs up into the main lanes. This is why they are only built at high-volume intersections. The ability to delay slowing down until after the lane change is a side effect but not the purpose.
When was the last time NASA dealt in dollar amounts under a million?
The Navy launched the Clementine moon probe for ~$100K in 1994 and sparked the "Faster, Better, Cheaper" mantra within NASA. This freaked the space industry powerhouses because it threatened a significant reduction in the fat they could carve out of their contracts with the government if it took hold as an industry wide standard. Fortunately for them, some notable failed projects built around FBC led to the abandonment of that policy and the continued largess for publicly funded space programs.

Kooks like Christine O'Donnell don't get nominated by "a few fringe members".

How about a real blast from the past... Imagine its 2005, netbooks haven't been dreamed up yet and Fujitsu came out with the P1500 convertible.
HTTP referrer tells where a user came from to generate and retrieve a shortened URL. That allows shortening services to track activity by domain.

She qualifies for Medicaid service for the rest of her life. An autistic person isn't going to need $250K for their personal expenses.

but the waiting made it that much sweeeter.
Of course, progressive display with GIF's interlacing feature helped ease the suspense :)
Did you CC the local bar association?

In think "Don't Copy that Floppy: Electric Boogaloo" is more whack.
