b. Any person deploying a biological, chemical or radiological detector shall immediately notify the police department if such detector indicates an alarm, notwithstanding whether the person holds a permit for such detector, by following such procedures as are prescribed by rule of the commissioner and/or are included as a term of the permit itself.
so if I commit a misdemeanor by having an illegal NBCR detector, it's a misdemeanor of me not to report the activation of my illegal detector without regard to whether I have reason to believe the alarm to be giving a false indication! an other interesting problem may be what happens when all of the new cellphones in NYC have to be registered because the have radiation detectors built in.
I might suggest that the smoke detector would have too be registered, Most places have an ordinance making the owner of a system responsible for multiple false alarms and consider that good.
The projo is going to be traveling in excess of Mach 8, I don't know how many G's it would take going from zero to Mach 8 in the length of a gun barrel, I'd guess 10K G's would be in the ballpark and that's out of the survivability range of any guidance package I can think of. After that any aerodynamic control surfaces would need a whole shit load of power to actuate in that kind of wind loads and again that wouldn't live through launch either. Not to mention when your projo is going that fast what's going to change? A discarding sabot Tank round goes about Mach 3 or 3600 MPH or a mile a sec so there isn't too much time between shot and splash for guidance to make any difference. This is the Navy, they have Gravity maps and Ocean Height maps so they even know if they have to aim a quarter inch high
I imagine if a plane comes back loaded for bear and the flaps are not able to fully extended it's a bit tricky to stop a half billion dollars of plane and weapons without ripping the pilots retinas out of his eyes and that's where the advanced part comes in.
Depending on how sensitive the satellite was there might be some anti-tamper devices on board to inhibit an unauthorized physical capture, if I were inclined to steal one I'd expect a booby-trap or two to be there. I'd also expect the the really classified mechanisms on board were constructed so that they would be physically destroyed upon re-entry or if removed improperly.
I think you are under-estimating the Russian angle with Iran as well; I understood that the biggest reason for our involvement with Iran was because of their strategic location with Russian which aid our surveillance of the USSR as long as we had a "friendly" government in power in Iran. Funny 90% of our problems today had their roots in the dealings between us and our enemy the Nazi's in Germany and our allies the Bolsheviks in the USSR.
That's because the Bosses have forgot that it's not how fast you work that counts, it's how much acceptable work you get done. At my job if I'm only slightly pressured and not interrupted with new tasks, unrelated tasks, I get the most done in a day because I can switch tasks at logical points in the workflow.
If it wasn't for the 80-20 rule, you can do 80% of the job in 20% of the time; the whole world would have gone down the tubes. Unfortunately it also means the the last 20% of the job take 80% of the time and money, which is probably why we get so much half-ass software from the commercial world.
Mercury Poisoning is a little vague, as is Illinois Fish and Your Health, but that is understandable because fishing and hunting is a significant source of income, I know in Michigan, during the late seventies early eighties, Mother's milk was generally unfit for human consumption!
Chernobyl's RBMK reactor, however, used solid graphite as a neutron moderator to slow down the neutrons, and neutron-absorbing light water to cool the core. Thus neutrons are slowed down even if steam bubbles form in the water. Furthermore, because steam absorbs neutrons much less readily than water, increasing an RBMK reactor's temperature means that more neutrons are able to split uranium atoms, increasing the reactor's power output. This makes the RBMK design very unstable at low power levels, and prone to suddenly increasing energy production to dangerous level if the temperature rises. This was counter-intuitive and unknown to the crew. more significant flaw was in the design of the control rods that are inserted into the reactor to slow down the reaction. In the RBMK reactor design, the control rod end tips were made of graphite and the extenders (the end areas of the control rods above the end tips, measuring 1-metre (3 ft) in length) were hollow and filled with water, while the rest of the rod - the truly functional part which absorbs the neutrons and thereby halts the reaction - was made of boron carbide. With this design, when the rods are initially inserted into the reactor, the graphite ends displace some coolant. This greatly increases the rate of the fission reaction, since graphite is more potent neutron moderator (a material that enables a nuclear reaction) and also absorbs far fewer neutrons than the boiling light water. Thus for the first few seconds of control rod activation, reactor power output is increased, rather than reduced as desired. This behavior is counter-intuitive and was not known to the reactor operators. Chernobyl disaster
Most of the Na was shot into the air while molten so it's all oxidized or carbonated; yet I did notice that they didn't have the seams on the over-garments taped up, the thought of NaO dust working it's way to the skin is scary in itself.
AIDS is a retrovirus, it implants it's genetics info into your chromosome, so it's terminal. The best we are going to get is keeping it in remission until you dye from something else; death is the only cure.
Actually I was jokingly referring to get a copy of Dozier's document and copyrighting it well before and in anticipation of receiving Dozier's C and D letter.
Seriously, I can see instances where copyright would be applicable such as the publisher of legal boilerplate, but in reality the desition by the court missed the mark on several points,
Firstly they nature of the use has to be considered, I'd think that if an other law firm used Dozier Internet Law boilerplate that that would be infringing due to the nature of the usage;
Secondly the court is required to consider the financial impact of the infringement, a Camp;D letter is only valuable upon receipt of the intended recipient;
Additionally the publication of the C&D letter by the recipients doesn't diminish Dozier's ability to receive financial rewards from publishing similar but differing letter on the behalf of others;
Thirdly one could argue that publishing the letter was an infringing activity due to it being a statement of fact and facts aren't copyrightable;
Fourthly there is little that is unique in each letter nor from letter to letter that is copyrightable, that's why they are called boilerplate;
and lastly the court should have considered our societies general repugnance for copyrighted laws and legal documents.

They don't fit into clothes sold at The Gap or Forever21 after I125 Tx for an over-active thyroid! Seriously one of our patients is a Customs Agent and he told me that when DHS installed the radiation detectors at the border it took the Canadian trash haulers two weeks to clean up the trucks and trash enough to get across the border! Right now the biggest problem is we don't have any baseline surveys so we can't tell what is normal contamination and what is a Nuc trying to slip in. If they put these things in cell phones it's likely a lot of people are going to get unpleasant suprises.
So are you going to be the one to tell millions of grieving parents that their children died so that the American National Bird could survive? I'm getting eaten alive by Tiger Mosquitoes accidentally imported from Asia each summer, getting rid of all the mosquitoes that carry deadly diseases in Africa will at most reduce the overall mosquitoes population until some other species of mosquitoes take up the slack.

The other interesting thing is

the shock waves generated by mere rifle bullets will cause a person a pretty massive headache after a 100 rounds or so past over your head.
Your right, an EE would be talking about coulombs in regards to charge or discharge of a capacitor.
