Habeas has recently come under attack from an as yet unidentified spammer. The spammer is illegally utilizing the Habeas Warrant Mark in emails which are promoting several pharmacy websites. The attack began on Sunday January 11, 2004 at about 11am PT.
Habeas is aggressively pursuing this incident to stop this illegal mailstream and to utilize the Habeas legal tools at our disposal to punish the responsible spammer for copyright and trademark violations.
Thank you for reporting this abuse of our Warrant Mark to us. We appreciate all complaints concerning this incident, as they have already been extremely helpful in our investigation.
Has anyone else seen a spurt of Habeas SWE headers in spam?
I'd never seen any until this week, and suddenly I've got like 5/day.
I forwarded them to the good folks at habeas, hopefully the spammer will get sued into oblivion, but it's forced me to re-score SWE with a much lower bonus in spamassassin...

a fine example of another religion (with very similar roots) which states (in a nutshell) that people should be nice to each other, which a few people who claim to follow its teachings use as an excuse to do nasty things other people.

I agree that we should legalize (and tax at a rate comparable to alcohol and tobacco) most of the currently illegal drugs. I cringe at the thought of legalized meth, since that stuff can so easily leave permanent brain damage, but that's the only exception in my book.
As to more addictive, I have it from several people who've been thru both that kicking a cigarette habit is harder than kicking a heroin habit - but you're right about the driving issue. I know first-hand that pot isn't addictive -- it's just habit-forming (like video games - and both can make you fat and lazy:)
One of the issues with the push to decriminalize pot here (canada) is that there's no roadside test for stoned drivers, the way there is for drunks. Not sure about the 'harder' drugs...
I suppose I should have made myself more clear - really I think that hitting anyone at all is a pretty clear sign that you're an asshole, except in the conditions I mentioned before (in a ring, or in self defense). Defending someone else should peobably be included here as well...
Limiting it any other way is crap - one might argue that it's less of a sign that I'm an asshole if I hit someone larger and stronger than myself, or one might just read that I'm a stupid asshole from that...
But having said that, I'm probably more likely to intervene if I see a man hitting a woman than if i see two guys fighting - read into that what you will...
with the exception of the violence reference, I'd call the rest poor taste (or just more info than I want to hear), rather than heresy
I think it's perfectly legit for a man to take a swing at his wife (or any other woman) in two cases only: 1) she's robbing you, or threatening you with a weapon
2) you're in a ring, with a referree
otherwise you're an asshole, and should be beaten soundly by at least a dozen old ladies with heavy umbrellas

please, by all means, back your hersies with discussion - I think they could lead to good discussion...
1) I haven't seen too much evidence of israeli involvement, but I think there are lots of interesting things one could say both about this and in comparison of israel v. iraq in their handling of UN resolutions. Since the US administration's stance seems to be 'israel good, other middle eastern places bad' this could be called heresy in the states, but probably not in other places...
2) I wholeheartedly agree with this, the war on drugs has done nothing to combat the evils of addiction, and the human cost of the 'war' has been terrible
3) I disagree with this, but I'd still like to hear your arguments (if you or any other slashdotters present actually want to make that argument)
One thing I find interesting in the article is the test near the beginning: "Do you have any opinions that you would be reluctant to express in front of a group of your peers?"
I'd say that I don't, but that's probably more a result of how I define my peers than the acceptability of my ideas. Some of my opinions might not be shared by my peers, but they would be more likely to debate my points than declare me a heretic...
I got mine for around $60 CDN at future shop, almost a year ago. Still looks brand new, and I'm still very happy with it. I tend to end up with a ton of stuff in my bag (clothes, martial arts weapons,...) and it's still easy to carry and nothing's broken.
btw: dell inspiron w. 14.1 inch screen, another guy at my office has the same bag and a 15" screen on his laptop - it fits just fine.
