Just because a query originates from within an IP address block will not make it an attack. It's like assuming that someone from a bad neighborhood will steal from you.
Well, you're three quarters right, Economic liberalism is a plank in the 'modern conservative' platform, which is funny considering with how much disgust they use the word 'liberal' . However, conservationists, like Teddy Roosevelt (a progressive Republican), not conservatives, are still interested in the National Park system. Conservative typically mean people who don't want to see rapid change, or a change back to 'how things were'. Back around the civil war conservatives wanted to keep slavery where it already existed, and now it seems they are looking to balance the budget in a homage to Hoover. Also typically, conservatives were isolationists, and in favor of trade duties. However political identity has always had some fluidity, I'd describe myself as a progressive, but it's generally easy for others to label me a liberal. Participially as conservatives seem to think that anyone who has any values 'to the left' of their position is both utterly wrong, not worth consideration, and liberal.
wouldn't it be much cooler to put them in an orbit halfway between the Earth and the moon
Yes, it would be cool to have space junk at a Lagrange Point. It'd be even cooler to actually use it rather than leaving it as an hazard. However, I doubt if the station has that much propellant.
But Cheney didn't out her. Nor did Libby. Armitage did.
And Ollie North was the ring leader in his scandal, right. There is every indication that Dick Cheney micromanaged torture sessions, what makes you think that Armitage did anything without approval? However, even if that's true, what was the penalty? Instead of a full accounting and responsibility, a cover up, but you're OK with that, aren't you?
Actually, her 'cover' was as the wife of a diplomat, so by outing her, Cheney and the rest of them, now confirmed that every single wife or husband (child, cousin, etc) of a diplomatic officer could be a CIA spy. Of course not like they didn't suspect some of them (or all), but now their kangaroo courts can 'present evidence of such'. Basically making the lives of thousands of people related to Diplomatic officers sightly more complicated.
Oh, and BTW, while she was in this country when 'outed', she did travel, and now it's reasonable to think that her contacts (even the truly social ones) are under a cloud of suspicion in their home countries. That'll teach them not to cooperate with the U.S.
Playing a little to stereotypes isn't awful, but when it becomes a characterization of that stereotype, you generally lose your target. It's kinda like marketing something directly to Sara Palin using Tina Faye in her Palin character as the spokesperson.
Sounds like these guys are just being exploited by their own egos.
Perhaps, but I suspect that there are a couple of different personality types at play here. Some are clearly looking for experience they couldn't get. Hoping that eventually being paid for the work. While for most in the IT industry tech support seems like a lousy gig, to someone pushing food (or cleaning it up), a $14/hour tech support job would seem like a fortune. It's not unusual for people to use unpaid 'jobs' (internships, candy strippers, fund raising, etc) to gain experience in a field. However, shut-ins would likely just be doing it for human contact, something easy, and at their own pace. Sure some will be feeding over-sided egos, but in IT it's a common trait.
Eventually these companies will build systems to identify the best of these users and provide benefits/ privileges for them (free service, special handling, cash, etc).
Just imagine an inbox with Jew cheese hot who men taking a hot low duh! Now with 5 extra inches of pie Nile mask joule in men lay Ness. With slew tea nurses.
I guess that this is a decent english attempt at the techniques used to evade Chinese censors, but to me it just looks like someone barfed up a bunch of vanity plates.
A developer who read a book on security will get security wrong. It's a topic that simply requires a specialist.
And specialists come from where? Are these individuals born with an innate knowledge of PHP security, or are these skills passed from father to son, mentor to apprentice? No, they get their knowledge from books, lectures, and websites; they read and learn (hopefully). I'd say the the best are likely senior developers who've developed a specialty.
Acting like security isn't in the realm of the developer is a particularly dangerous statement, and I really do hope that it's just a joke. As it's one of the basic parts of web application (no matter what the language). Sure one could hire a security specialist to review the process, but you're better off just using an intrusion detecting application (or service), and a proper code review.

While you are correct that using localhost for 'ad diversion' would hit a locally running web server, but at least you'd could have a log of your results. Just thinking of it, but wouldn't it be cool to see your own personal pictures/content instead of ads?
I mean for this infection to work, the victim has to be not only stupid, but also not lazy. It has to have a low infection rate.
Or just too wrapped up in their own lives to notice other cars. Sure most would know that they aren't parked illegally, but then they'd be even more interested in getting to the website. Hell in some cities, one wouldn't even have to look hard for people parked illegally, as often double parking is the norm. Other towns have confusing rules about where and when one can park. Personally, I could see this as being a very effective attack, in particular if one wants to target a specific individual or small group.
Only if we're not the first, or amongst the first to get to a level of technological advancement. A good question would be 'how long should it take to start broadcasting?'
Of all the rotten people Bush picked for nearly every job in his administration, and you had to pick out Tony Snow. As a news reporter, he was a good pick for Press Secretary, and by all accounts with the script that he was given, he made a fine one. I would challenge you to find one reputable account of him poorly doing that job (even before he announced the return of his cancer).
Then you have the gall to imply that Sanjay Gupta, was a bad choice for Surgeon General. Wow, do you even do any research before you make an opinion? Dr Gupta, a neurosurgeon (that's a 'brain doctor'), was a White House Fellow in the Clinton Whitehouse working on Health care policy. He practices medicine at two Atlanta Hospitals; Emory University School of Medicine (a top ranked school), and at Grady Memorial (a top ranked public Hospital). You might also know him from TV, as a reporter for CNN he was embedded in the "Devil Docs" Hospital unit, and was respected by them enough to be asked to help with both military and civilian casualties. I did actually watch a report which featured 'his day', it's nuts; the guy basically holds down what others would consider three full time jobs. This is a guy who is a well respected doctor, great on TV, and already trusted by millions. Over the last couple of decades, the Surgeon General has had a bully pulpit for health issues; I don't think that Obama could have found a better candidate.
Heat pumps are by far the most efficient way to warm a building using electricity; everyone I know who uses "electric heat" actually has a heat pump that will switch over to resistance heat only as a backup
Or if the outside temp falls below 30 degrees Fahrenheit, as heat pumps will not work below like 20 degrees. If you're in any place that gets below freezing for more than a couple of nights, what you want is a duel fuel system, heat pump with a gas furnace backup; That's what I just bought.
So, liberals are the least fearful. While right wingers are the most jumpy. Wow, this article (and my comment) is going to have some serious down mods.

The cameras are mounted on the wall above the urinal
They are not 'mounted' anywhere in the bathrooms; It's a joke, some people are just too easy to fool.

THX1138 and/or The Island wasn't it?
I'm not sure of either of those, but since you didn't mention the Simpsons, you'll need to turn in your /. user id.

If the government really wanted to shut down SPAM, it can easily do it by making up bullshit laws and detaining people indefinitely.
Yea, that's worked so very well with the 'war on drugs'.
You do know that the MacKenzie Brothers sketches were created to make fun of Canadian content laws, right?
Really?! Wow, that's news to me, I must have missed that mentioned in the page I linked. Hoser!
What is special about "Canadian content" anyhow?
Quality cultural content
It reminds me of the electric car I invented - the one with the really really long extension cord.
So, you invented the Trolley? Wow, nice to meet you.
Wouldn't it be better to use 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1? The latter attempts to connect while the former doesn't bother.

And it's called more exactly honey-pots.
Actually, honey pots are more about collecting spammer addresses, not identifying their targets.
Here's the report on broadband. %55 percent are on broadband, and 10% are on dial-up. Also noted:
So for many,it's not an disdain for a fast connection, but just a lack of internet in general for the internet.
