I guess you are pissed because you don't have broadband? I guess it did sound a little like I was bragging and I apoligize for that. My mom let me get it as long as I got my hair cut.
If anything they should get their ICANN rights revoked. What does ICANN have to say about this anyway?
I am sorry to be using Time Warner Cable Road Runner but it is the only high speed access in my area.
Caffeine is not the best thing for a human body. Normally your body will sleep when it needs to as long as it is in an area that your mind perceives as "safe". Staying up way too late is not good.
Caffeine tricks your body into not sleeping when it knows it would do your body good to sleep.
Because of the school schedule that is not in sync with teenager's circadian rhythms, many teens are turning to caffeine to push their bodies to the limit. Teens are alert later than older and younger people and are sleepy later. The bus comes too early to allow enough sleep since teens fall asleep later.

Robot sports are making their way into the mainstream.
High school geeks can compete in FIRST robot competitions through a school club. The radio controlled robots which are programmed in modified BASIC are made to pick up balls and place them in their goal. The team with the most balls wins the match. The competition was aired on the NASA/Government channel.

In the domain case the judge did not accept that the laws on the books apply to this.
Now that I look at it, there is absolutely no similarity between the two cases. But still there is something in my mind that links the two. Maybe it is just the anti-government sentiment. If it is, I apoligize for that.
In an unrelated note, I believe that Judge Patel of the napster lawsuit thinks she is the great stimulator of the american economy. If you read her ruling, you will see how she hopes to help the future online music sites and of course, the media giants.
