U.S. directs agents to cover up program used to investigate Americans
Although these cases rarely involve national security issues, documents reviewed by Reuters show that law enforcement agents have been directed to conceal how such investigations truly begin - not only from defense lawyers but also sometimes from prosecutors and judges.
The undated documents show that federal agents are trained to "recreate" the investigative trail to effectively cover up where the information originated, a practice that some experts say violates a defendant's Constitutional right to a fair trial.
The nephews of Gaetano Badalamenti operated pizzerias - and distributed heroin - out of small mid-western towns. The Sicilians dominated the heroin trade, while the American mobsters received a cut for allowing the Sicilians to operate in their territory. Manufacturers of cheese, olive oil and tomatoes could also be useful export vehicles for smuggling drugs into the United States. Joe Pistone, an FBI agent who infiltrated the Bonanno family, quoted one Bonanno member: The zips are Sicilians brought into this country to distribute heroin. They set up pizza parlors, where they received and distributed heroin, laundered money. The zips were clannish and secretive - the meanest killers in the business.
Throughout history
There've been many songs written about the eternal triangle
This next one tells the story of a Mr Grayson, a beautiful woman
And a condemned man named Tim Tooley...
When the sun rises Tomorrow, Tim Tooley... must hang...
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Poor boy, you're bound to die
I met her on the mountain
There I took her life
Met her on the mountain
Stabbed her with my knife
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Poor boy, you're bound to die
This time Timorrow
Reckon where I'll be
Hadn't a-been for Grayson
I'd a-been in Tennessee
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Poor boy, you're bound to die
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Poor boy, you're bound to die
This time Tomorrow
Reckon where I'll be
Down in some lonesome valley
Hangin' from a white oak tree
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Poor boy, you're bound to die
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head, Tim Tooley
Poor boy, you're bound to die
Poor boy, you're bound to die
Poor boy you're bound to die
Poor boy, you're bound to die...
Certainly the movie studios are obnoxiously attempting to prevent format-shifting, in order to sell you the same movie twice. But that doesn't mean they are violating any of your rights.
And when I figure out how to format shift an item I paid for, exactly how am I violating their rights?
I have no desire to pirate anything. I want to be able to burn movies so that 1.) I don't have to pay another $20-$60 when my kid scratches them. 2.) I don't have to carry a bunch of dvds when I'm on a plane trip.
I guess you'd be okay with buying a car and having the manufacturer tell you what kind of wheels you could put on it?
That is not what is meant by the phrase, "unlocking a phone". In general what that does is allow a phone to utilize a sim card on any network. Unlocked phones still have whatever signing and certificate restrictions were built into their Java system.
I agree that usually unlocking a phone means being able to use a sim from any provider. Some phones can be unlocked to the point (and that's what I meant here) where restrictions to software on the phone can be overridden.
winning is strongly implied by the statement in the release that they will be the only legal linux distributor once the lawsuits are over...
The original poster stated,"It states in the press release that they are anticipating winning their lawsuits..."
I replied that it doesn't state that. I stand by my statement.
Or do you think that IBM will win, but SCO will be granted ownership of linux by the court just because they felt like it?
Your second sentence is non sequitur bullshit, but I'll play. I think IBM will win. The second half of your sentence is moronic and not worthy of a serious response. Thanks for playing, have a nice day.
It states in the press release that they are anticipating winning their lawsuits so they are releasing this version of Linux because as soon as they win they will be the only legal provider of Linux solutions.
Wrong. It says the lawsuit will be over soon. It says nothing about winning or losing it.
Due to the number of typos, it's evident that this release is a hoax.
1. They used google and were told to stop.
2. They never used google but were told never to start.
3. Bought an ipod and Steve got rid of it.
4. Asked for an ipod and were told no.
Either way, the genius is admitting that either his kids tried these products or he knew they were so superior that he had to do the preemptive strike to stop them.
What an idiot.
Actually, I'll vote for 5. He's a buffoon that needs to pound his chest on a regular basis (not to mention toss chairs) to seemingly make himself look like a tough guy and is making the whole thing up.
It's why you don't see cameras in rural France or Spain, people just pop them and no society can afford to keep replacing a thousand dollar camera when a one dollar bullet will fix the problem.
Thanks for that insight. I always thought that the reason I didn't see cameras in rural France or Spain was because, well, it was RURAL. As in, not a lot of people around, and there really wasn't a reason to put a camera in an unpopulated area.

Mod this up, this is exactly what happened (August 2007).
This was officially announced two weeks ago.
By January, the storage will be at 6GB.
Is millions of users not uninstalling Gnu/Linux.

So, where's that Free Software Intel wireless chipset driver, then? (Just sayin'...)
An Openbsd guy wrote one but then a Linux guy accused him of stealing the code...
State lotteries and horse racing which can be bet on via the internet is what destroyed our case.
You forgot FANTASY BASEBALL!
Mind-boggling. Not to mention destroying the "think of the children" bullshit they spouted when trying to pass the bill.
Thank you so very much for sharing that.

There already are counterclaims by IBM and Novell, and a bankruptcy filing does not make them go away.
*de novo - Anew. afresh. Considering the matter anew, the same as if it had not been heard before and as if no decision previously had been rendered.

Google the model of your phone and the word "unlock".
fast enough, though, to make wirelessly surfing the Web and downloading music and video well worth the effort."
Music? Yes.
Web surfing for anything other than a quick information lookup? Maybe.
But I do not comprehend the attraction of looking at video on a postage stamp sized (slight exaggeration) screen.
"...Michael Copps, minority Democratic commissioner..." ;-)
You are aware that Mr. Copps is caucasian?
WTF does this mean???
The GPLv2 is old and out of date and though it still works today, will start to crumble in a few years.
Please explain how a license can "crumble".
