When I read "fired", I immediately thought of firearms. Maybe we can use the contraband against the screener? Missing sunscreen or PETN without a competent detonater is not as stupid as missing a bowie knife. They might get a "burn" in the first two cases, and a through and through in the last.
Just kidding! I have been modded up plenty, have good karma! Although, I do not find niko9 interesting, I also do not have any points, for lo this many days. Almost like I was blacklisted. Huh.
"...Chad Lee Hickey, an Arlington police officer. Arlington Police Department spokesman Blake Miller will say only that the department is conducting an internal investigation of an employee.
Hickey, 29, could not be reached for comment. His attorney, Richard Carter, said Arlington police rules prohibit him or Hickey from discussing the allegations."
Just imagine how they would feel if someone pulled that kind of shenanigans on them! I bet between a police officer and a lawyer, they could find a law!
Don't neglect to note that this all happened in Arlington, Tarrant County, Texas- not Arlington, VA.
I would write a book, and become a consultant, and profit.
But you should do what you love, and the money will follow.
If you love getting patents, go wild. But me thinks it is much different than you imagine. And, I do know quite a bit of what it involves. I know enough to know that I don't know everything, which is a sign of an expert.
Here is a little quiz: why must you be so cognizant 11 months later of the difference between "the" and "a" in a provisional patent submitted to the USPTO?
Do you really think that a gun-company should be immune if they manufacture a weapon and a child accidentally shoots his friend while showing it off?
Yes. They should be. And they are. This has (again) come up repeatedly in the American court systems and has been repeatedly shut down. The gun company has one responsibility -- they need to make sure that their products function properly and can be used safely by a responsible adult who so chooses. If you buy a gun, and it blows up in your face, the gun company is liable. If you use that gun to commit a murder, they are not.
I must say I am not as sanguine as you about the gun companies. Rather like their buddies the cigarette makers, they want to profit from selling a dangerous product, and are quite willing to sell it to irresponsible minors and adults, in any quantity. Bus companies are not in the business of transporting bombers, but gun companies are to a very large degree in the business of selling power, and turning their backs on the use of that power.
How about I sell you some enriched uranium? You are a responsible adult, right? It has peaceful uses, right? I will smile all the way to the bank, right?
See, I don't think the gun companies do what you want. In such a case, every gun would come with a trigger lock, or proof of possession of a trigger lock. And the person not using the trigger lock would be responsible. But that would cut into FREEDOM, and PROFIT.
sheeeet, cgn has already got that gig at/., and they are paying him a lot more than you made. maybe you should put in a mock up of the website you could do for/., and see if sourceforge is interested.

"Arendash said his team was modifying the experiment to see if they could produce faster results and begin testing humans."
Ah, this is one time I would like to see some studies of correlation in humans before we let this guy work on causation.
Piece, brother. Intensive purposes is just one kind of the rainbow of purposes. Like wow, man.

Happy Gnu Year, CGN!

What conclusions is it you assert you can get from your data?
Apparently, anthrax is not what you think it is.
Oh, well... languages that use ** for exponentiation?
Ada, Bash, Fortran*, FoxPro, Perl, Python, Ruby, SAS, ABAP, and Haskell**, I suppose...
according to google and http://www.statemaster.com/encyclopedia/Exponentiation
* hold it- you mean there are other languages than fortran IV ?
**(for floating-point exponents)
^ Exactly. ^
The HitlerHitler is equivalent to Hitler taken Hitler times, or Hitler * Hitler.
But far more powerful is the HITLER**HITLER, which is about as much as Hitler taken Hitler times, the result taken a Hitler number of times.
But, even Hitler can beat that. This was just a demonstration of a full proof, which this entry is too small to contain, having to do with
HITLER**HITLER**...**HITLER
Not really, but it is apparent you will admit to me being such.
See you in Canada!
Actually, I would like to respond to your friendly question in more detail, but I am regret to say I am quite busy now, packing to move to Canada.
I do not think the action of him filing shows that he thought he had a case, but I do think your saying so shows something.
Mod me up, mod niko9 down.
Just kidding! I have been modded up plenty, have good karma! Although, I do not find niko9 interesting, I also do not have any points, for lo this many days. Almost like I was blacklisted. Huh.
The point is, choice. They can make it available, but let me take it out. And do not sneak it in.
Doesn't this seem reasonable?
I think their support is fine. The strong-arming, I can do without.
Parent says it all.
Just because Mozilla caves, do not shut up. Make MicroSloth play by the rules.
Please: Post how to make Microsloth get out of my Firefox.
Mod parent up.
You should get him an email account, I heard he won $1,956,389,455 in a Nigerian lottery.
Geez, Chris, you read this crap?
Good link! that link made me laugh out loud, it was so preposterous! even if the conclusion is right, the methods are so hilarious!
people will believe any reasoning that gets them to where they want to be.

The way I first heard this, is that men have two heads, but only enough blood for using one.
