There isn't any sound precedent I'm aware of that establishes any kind of freedom from speech. There are certainly limits on what circumstances you are entitled to subject others to your speech (you are not entitled to hold an audience hostage), but there are no "free from speech zones" in public. If a person is in a public space voluntarily, they do not have the right to operate in a bubble and be shielded from speech.
That's the principle of the law. Whether watching porn is a speech act is another question, but if it is, it is absolutely protected.
Nuclear detonations create telltale signatures on seismometers, which makes it pretty much impossible to perform nuclear tests without being noticed by the international community. The article even admits this:
Others remain deeply sceptical that the tests took place at all. Most troubling is the lack of any seismic vibrations to support the radioisotope data, according to Ola Dahlman, a retired geophysicist who spent years working with the test-ban group's detection network. The Korean peninsula is wired to spot the tiniest shake from a nuclear explosion, Dahlman says. "It should have been able to see something."
It was conducted on the Far Side of the moon; right near the Nazi base.
It's possible simply because law enforcement, particularly where property is concerned, doesn't exist to protect the common man. Law enforcement and property law exist to protect the rich from the common folk. Protecting your average joe is outside the scope of their purpose, so they won't bother to do it.
It costs money to enforce the law. If they operate like a wolf chasing a mouse, then they risk budget cuts and firings.
I think the real question is what is it doing on Slashdot again. I seem to remember this story coming up when it was first published almost a month ago.
Why shouldn't it be on/. ? This is a 'nerdy' item, and a rather sad one as well. Rather this than the endless, tedious and (to me and many others) redundant posts relating to US politics.
I remember reading that as i have repeated the story many times. The women on the assembly line could not grasp why you would stick a bolt in upside down. Always being taught to put it in facing down. So if the nut ever came loose the bolt would not come out. Even though as you said the instructions said to put it in upside down.
The reason being the head of the bolt was shorter and would not interfere with a control cable.
If you are putting a TV tower up, then you should put the bolts in upside down. If the nut comes off, then the bolt falls and is easier to detect and fix.
As long as the music is not tied to any particular part of the event, it's covered under a venue's ASCAP license.
But.
If the music is synchronized to a video montage, or used as part of an announcement or otherwise synchronized with something, the campaign has entered into the area of "Synchroization Rights". These are covered on a contract-by-contract basis between the music publisher and the user.
"A synchronization or "synch" right involves the use of a recording of musical work in audio-visual form: for example as part of a motion picture, television program, commercial announcement, music video or other videotape. Often, the music is "synchronized" or recorded in timed relation with the visual images. Synchronization rights are licensed by the music publisher to the producer of the movie or program."

We know that in sudden, widespread disruptive events people loot.
Like the Japanese at Fukushima? Not.

The FBI has been violating the Constitution for years by attaching GPS tracking devices to suspect's cars without a warrant. And the FBI has been violating the law with regards to National Security Letters.
Put that in your smipe and poke it.

I'm thinking that the leakage through such a thin layer of oxide would make it useless as an insulator in transistors.
Maybe one could do a tunneling junction.
Space doesn't get that small. Anything smaller than the Planck length can't be measured in any way that is meaningful.
Granted, the radius of an electron is several orders of magnitude larger than the Planck length.
Planck is orders of magnitude larger than that.

It's always the proteins ...
Prions , Tau etc...
can we not just ban them
2112 - year of the protein
seriously though - it looks like a good start
So its Tau then. Sounds like six sigma work.

The porcine polka?
Apparently the tree has been involved with Tweets for thousands of years.......
And one day there was spontaneous combustion in a pile of owl shit.
Obviously we need a post about the state of the youngest trees in the world so we can get their view on this important issue.
Now that we have that, we can get on to the politics of other countries which are under-reported.

This is the wake.

We need fair and ballanced reporting.

Listen to them cackle.

You can stop them from synching then?

Are most ICS vanilla?

Were the headline: "Thailand Rejects Twitter's Censorship Plans", that would be news.
Twitter's plan of censorship, not to redact anything, was rejected by the Thai Government.
