Wrong. This is an extremly common myth. It ONLY becomes counterfeit if its presented as real money. There is even an artists who draws bills and attempts to barder with them but makes it very clear they are not real bills - therefore not currency - therefore not counterfiet. He even bleaches some bills to reuse the paper, making it exactly the same size as the original Even the USTD has commented how realistic his hand drawn bills appear to be. And all entirely legal because he never attempts to pass it off as currency. See seemingly, any "counterfiet" is perfectly legal so long as its intended purpose it artists rather than currency fraud.
No I'm afraid you're wrong, As stated the bill needs to larger or smaller and as one other pointed out the back can be blank. If it's a complete bill it is illegal. I found out the hard way.
It could also be some art project, like that artist who actually draws hundred dollar bills that look exactly like the real thing but end up being worth far more because of their artistic value.
Still, if it were such a project, it would be dishonest and a form of theft unless they eventually come clean and admit it and offer to compensate the store.
It's illegal to even make a counterfeit bill. The copy has to be much larger than normal or else you can goto jail even if you have no plan to use it.
From the same chart, 18 years of that (117 mSv), if it were absorbed in only one year, would still be only marginally higher than the lowest dose clearly linked to an increased risk of cancer (100 mSv/year). Since it's being absorbed over 18 years, the body has a much better chance of repairing any damage, so health is most likely not affected.
The human body can take a surprising amount of radiation and do just fine when compared to detectable levels. A report of "radiation found!" really means very little in terms of overall health. Much more concerning is that the contaminated materials were used at all, implying that the construction controls aren't right. Finding some low levels of contamination should lead to an inspection of all buildings recently built by the same company, to see where else (potentially more) radioactive materials have been used, and to assess if there's any real danger.
When I was a child I figured one day that I'd break up the sidewalk with a hammer. This isn't bullshit, I don't know why I did so and I got my ass beat but would my parents have had to take me to the hospital if I lived in this place? What if I eat dirt.
I am not against nuke power. We need it... in my backyard even. But we don't have to put up with failure. We have always been told it could never happen. It does... Then everyone says well it's your fault build new reactors... come on now... If the old ones are unsafe turn them off. Prices go up, new ones get built.
While the use of contaminated materials is something to be concerned about, let's not forget how much radiation this actually is. It's roughly the equivalent of one chest CT scan per year.
You want you children growing up with that? 18 years worth? really?
As a non-US citizen that's been watching the developments of this closely, I am extremely glad that this has happened. Hell, I'm sure everyone is. Now just need to do something about PIPA, and we can breathe a nice sigh of relief (for a while)
No no... We still expect your government to pass a version twice as horrible or we will KILL YOU!
I doubt our will has anything to do with it. They can always just tack on the junk that didn't go through this time on some spending bill for homeless shelters and kittens.
Personally... I am in favor of the sniper option as it sends a clear message that looters will be shot (oh the good old days when it was more common place).
wow I've seen those sniper on duty signs before and thought they where jokes... I best be more careful..
Any vaccine will ruin a test for antibodies. What we need is a direct test for the bacteria.
It lives in the lungs... FOR GOD SAKES!
It obviously doesn't stay there though otherwise it could never spread to another person... so maybe a paper bag treated with some reactive agent that the patient can cough into would be the sort of test the GP was thinking of.
Karmawhoring with veiled anti-war sarcasm is always effective on slashdot, so I don't blame you. But really though, war is about maximizing tactical and strategic advantages, be it the bow and arrow, be it armor, be it castles, be it gunpowder, be it airplanes. What's the alternative, stagnation? Relinquishing war while others do not?
WTF is with these posts. I get flamebait and troll posts every other time and my karma has never dropped from excellent? Is 'their' (heh) another level called hivemind or are all of you full of stonework filled shit
My entry is ready now. It's a hollowed out brick of lead with a flap on one side and a display screen painted on the other. The screen reads 'acute radiation poisoning'. The devices inner working are a trade secret.
You need to start smaller. If they ban Ocean where do you go from there? The Pirate Planet? That''ll probably get you sued by Disney or someone. How about "the Pirate Cove"(probably already trade marked), the Pirate Fiord, or the Pirate Loch". Burn through the "bay" synonyms first.;-)

No. Your parents wouldn't even notice if you weren't wearing a dosimeter. Nor would you.
... and that is what scares people ...

Why are the building new housing complexes in the Fukishima Death Zone? Build prisons instead.
to spawn tentacle rape demons, have you never watched anime?
They are not making NEARLY the money they should be off the "Hang in there" posters and cute kitten calendars due to rampant IP theft.
The lose of revenue is really putting them in the dog house...

Oh good you looked it up.
No comment on the 'You Are' hu? o well... LuLz.....
I have my share of spelling and grammar mistakes but using "loose" for "lose" is a pet peeve of mine, write it off any way you choose.
You know where I'm at? Yeah behind the preposition at, which is something up with I will not put.
Your reality is starting to come loose. Arent you scared of losing you're mind?
"loose"
trollin away the day.
Is it fresh? I mean really fresh... Daddy needs to loose 10 years....

I stand corrected. That is a great idea....

Not just there. My grandmother-in-law had a dormant colony discovered in her rectum. Whee.
Well some Indian had clearly blown smoke up her ass at some point in the past.

Don't worry, the more they tighten their grip the more files will slip through their fingers.
Continue with the operation. You may fire when ready.
