There is also the Plutonium in the spark plug, the structure used to increase the temperature of the reaction in the secondary. Between the primary and the spark plug, it must be possible to get a reasonable quantity of Pu for reuse in an ad-hoc weapon.
If I miss a call, I see who called me (Missed Calls) and it gives me a name if its in my phone book. If it goes to voicemail, my provider texts me with details of the caller (only by number though as it can't match the numbers in my phone's tel book) and whether a message was left.
ClamWin runs quite nicely under Linux - sounds crazy but if you have some SMB shares, it is faster to run the AV directly on the SMB server and it runs natively.
Note that the problem with the EU comes down to national governments not wanting to cede power. The council is composed of the leaders of the respective governments whilst the commission is headed up by appointees of those governments. The parliament is democratically elected but has insufficient power. The trade commissioner responsible for ACTA (it was one of his "successes") was Mandelson and we know how he has always had his links with business and the media.
The role of British media should also be examined as they love to misrepresent regulations out of context whilst forgetting to inform people about useful things like the matching regional development aid. It seems that the UK has been somewhat inefficient at applying for grants that other countries, i.e., Ireland have done very well out of.
Please remember that the EU has relevance here tro slashdot, given the support for open formats and open source software and the reverse engineering directive which gives rights that are simply not available in the US.
In Germany or Switzerland, a lot of people have somewhat more advanced locks with restricted keyways, pins in two planes, etc. Generally, it easier to force the lock than to pick it. However there are still plenty of unrestricted keyways which could be copied on sight.
Unless you have a very well trained dog, it won't work. Thieves round here know about valium mashed up with fresh meat. They typically throw it into the yard/garden, dog finds and eats, it then goes to sleep for 24Hrs. The break-in occurs in that time. This happened to my mother with a Great Dane.
Newer high-end cars (as well as some mid-range) use deadlocks. Once activated, the interior locks can't be released. As for trying to force the mechanism, again, the higher end ones are much harder to force. Indeed car thieves for the likes of good BMs/Mercs/Etc use remote unlocking device sniffers (it also means less dame to the car).
The FCPA cannot be taken seriously after Iraq. In any case, there is now so much leeway over what is/is-not a bribe, I don't see them being stopped. Foe example, perhaps MS wants an official to 'like' windows, oh here it is for evaluation, it happens to be Windows-CE running on a platform that looks amazingly like a shiny new BMW Series 7. I'm not saying thats how they did it, but you only have to look as far as the drug companies to see that the anti-corruption legislation is a joke.
Therefore if they want to do any kind of engineering work (and they do, as the UK loves the idea of running something without maintenance until it spectaculary breaks down) then they have to close the whole tunnel down.
It was called PPI or something and basically involved a US escapee setting up some nice juicy contracts involving paying a maintenance company not do work.
There is a chain of wine-bars called Corney & Barrow in the City - Free WiFi for customers when I was last in London. It was just an open a/p no special rolling access codes needed. Several pubs have free wifi too.
Electronic signatures are useful but are frequently compromised by poor implementation. Hardware authentication devices may themselves be compromised either during manufacture or distribution.
Consider that banks have been exchanging SYMMETRIC keys via courier for nearly three decades, without any compromises,
I have worked in banking for 20 years and I'm fully aware of the problems both on single key as well as dual key systems that have happened, some of which I have witnessed myself such as the transmission of AES encrypted data by courier but enclosing the key in the same package (Duh?). These were not made public. I can't comment on the government/military side as I only hear rumours but I'm fully aware that screwups happen there too.
Large PKI systems have a number of major issues complicating it, especially when you have a relatively long lived piece of information like a passport or other identity document.
One such problem is the root certificate. PKI is a hierarchical trust system so should ICAO signing key become discovered this would invalidate every document signed using that key. This would invalidate the national issuer keys which in turn would invalidate the issued documents. All of them.
In theory your own border guards may be able to validate the identity of a passport holder. In reality, if you go to the US with a UK passport, I don't think the US will allow the UK immigration officials access to their database. In reality they will just use the image on the chip (maybe).
There are schemes where passport data can be secured with a digital signature from the issuing authority. The problem is that it means that you have to have a key distribution infrastructure. Public Key Infrastructures have a lot of problems even in one organisation, let alone across international borders.
In addition the RFID contain the same information you see in the passport, so that you can check that against the database and future use would allow checking the RFID stored photo with a camera scan to verify ID.
No. A friend of a friend got his new RFID chipped passport in the US. He refused to accept the passport without the chip being checked. This was good because it was someone else's chip in his passport. The manufacturing process has got screwed up and the wrong data was recorded in the passport.
The reaction of the staff was not surprised although they didn't say how often it had happened.
If you have skills then it isn't such a problem to come to Europe to work (IT knowledge is always a plus). Once you have been in a country for some years, you can apply for naturalisation and then get citizenship rights.
The worst part id getting rid of the US citizenship (required for some passports).
I'm not a real h/w person myself but I remember that the HP/Agilent stuff used to sit on benches looking pretty but Tektronix were considered more luggable. However in those days the kit was still mostly analog.
If you have a fairly good laptop, with, regrettably, Windows then the USB oscilloscope modules are quite good. There the main cost is the D/A converter and the higher the bandwidth, the more it will cost. I have a fairly basic two channel 50MHz model which seems ok for my own use.
Real oscilloscopes are wonderful things but they cost a lot and take a lot of space. I love the old Teks/HPs (now Agilents) and they are beautiful pieces of engineering but when buying s/h, it is better to check them out in person which means a good surplus dealer om your town.
Chelyabinsk-40/Ozyorsk was almost certainly a lot worse with at least 200 deaths. No reactor going pop, but many leaks from Lake Karachay used for storage into the river and the chemical explosion amongst the waste sediments helped irridate the area.

As mentioned, I meant ClamAV, my bad!!!
Sorry, Yes, I meant its Linux brother.

Not dead, just sleeping. Remember that HAL was woken up in 2010.

You wouldn't need a suicide pill. Slow depressurisation is quite a pleasant way to go (hypoxia gives you a high) so you just open the valves slightly.
There are DSO models up to 500MHz at least. I have the 2150 which does just the 50/60MHz.

Sorry, small contradiction there.
