POV Ray has some simple programatic animation tools build in, which would be enough for the animations the Dr. has posted on his website. I've done stuff not only rendered in 3D, but were composted together using red and green light and shifted cameras so you could view it with 3D glasses.
POV ray has a floating point patch that makes it fairly easy generate visualizations from existing datasets. I remember an article in Linux magazine about a Meteorologist in Wisconsin using it to model thunderstorms! If thunderstorms can be modeled, I don't see much in the physics dept that can't be modeled.
The killing of enemy soldiers for sport or revenge is illegal, in war soldiers on the opposing side must be given reasonable opportunities to surrender both as individual and in group, and once they've surrendered, their health, welfare and safety is the responsibility of the capturing side. The "commandant" should have been run-down, taken into custody, and allowed to defend his actions before a court.
if what you're saying is true then a career as a Hitman or mercenary would be a perfectly legitimate career. One could order and carry out assassinations with impunity. You must be one of those soccer-moms that thinks the world is a civilized places, because people are inherently good and kind. The trouble is most people are good and kind, and they often need help protecting themselves from a few people who are mean and bad and the line between renta-cop and merc can get pretty blurry. What's legal and what's illegal can depend on which side prevales and how well contracts are respected
I'm sure the RIAA was much more likely to end it quickly if they had a NDA on how much their victim was compensated and was allowed to let it look like a draw rather than a humiliating defeat.
IANAL but you need to file a counter-suit for attorney fees, harassment, defamation ect. possibly name your ISP as a co-defendant. You wouldn't get must most attorneys would work on contingency for a third, fees and expenses so after taxes all you really get is satisfaction
I detect the foul stench of patent trolls here, a dispicable lot, they'd knowingly let the planet be destroyed if they wern't paid a royalty on their IP. Most likely there is little new in anything they put together, and they're just hoping the USTO is lax about prior art and novelty
From what I understand companies that do fractional distalation of air for N2 and O2 have to filter out the water and CO2 crystals in the first stages of the process so it will not clog up the machinery. otherwise if they can economicaly produce commercial CO2 from sodium and calcium carbonates, the resulting lime and soda will greedily absorb CO2 from the atmosphere so a loop process should work. I know when your making biodiesel, you have to be careful to use fresh lye because it absorbs CO2 from the atmosphere.
you can just make sawdust, add water and heat and extract H2 for fuel and CO2 as a waste to sequester, the biggest reason they use natural gas to make hydrogen is because the petro-industry is used to handleing it and thinking that way. the CO2 can just be dumped into the ocean where the presure will keep it a liquid pool on the bottom until it sinks into the muck
I'm not a logger, but forestry companies plant a shitpile of trees; I've seen them, they've got people planting trees 8 hours a day. the trees they plant grow faster and produce the kind of wood that they really want, some woods grow pulp-wood and others grow structural-wood, it's very scientific and very sustainable. Right now illegal tree poaching is more of a danger to the tropical rain-forrests, the legit forrestry industry and even produces more greenhouse gasses than transportaion; Popular Mechanics had an informative articale in this months magazine.
You know, if you take out that equity loan, whos intrest is probably tax deductable and put the money into municipal bonds whos intrest paid is tax free and other tax prefered investments, it's posible to come out ahead. You have to crunch the numbers and ratios, talk to your tax advisor ect, but there is something emotionally satisfing about using tax free money to get a tax deduction.
Well if I were being sued for libel by a Canadian politician who is embroiled in multiple controversies like Crookes is, I'd engage a Canadian Solicitor/Lawyer and get the venue moved to the United States. In the US the courts are used to politicians saying things like "I am NOT a Crook", "I did not have Sex with..." so defense against libaling one is pretty easy.
no your not pulled over for speeding, your pulled over for cocaine falling from your friends stash in the bumper, and the cops find your stash in the glove compartment and don't even check the bumper. The pervert in the article had kiddie-porn, the cops had probable cause to search for kiddie-porn because his room-mate, rod-ram was sending kiddie-porn out over the internet, the open WiFi was irrelevant. If the pervert didn't have CD's full of kiddie-porn, and the only evidence was packets going to an IP address and no residual on his computer's caches, then the open WiFi could be argued to a judge or jury to establish and reasonable doubt defense.
I'd argue that the Shia in charge of Iran are the appocolypital branch of Islam so it would be like giving David Korish nuclear weapons; and we know Bush supplied National Guard assets to the FBI and BATF and how Waco turned out.
I went to USAMMCS to be a Hawk Missile and Launcher Repairer during 1973-74 one of the instructors told me "Irainian Students don't Fail, one did and was beheaded so Irainian students don't fail anymore." That of course would have been under the Shah's rule but I'm not sure it different now either.
The Genevea Convention, as I understand it prohibits the purposefull bombing of non-military targets the cities in question had significant induustrial capacity devoted to the Japanese War effort; and proper advanced notice of the bombings was given; You'll have to ask the Japanese why they chose not to evacuate the cities. Emotional I'd have prefered blowing the snow cap off Mt. Fuji, and it very probably would have been more effective than destroying Hiroshima, but it would have been illegal.
Firstly I'd like to point out that the problem at Chernobyl was due largely to faulty design, basicaly it would be like a car who's brakes only work when the gas peddle is pressed to the floor; additionaly the radiation released from Chernobyl was a world wide in magnitude. Secondly I'd like to point out the the Iranian Government seems to have the emotional maturity of a bunch of 13 year old boys drunk on pubesencent testosterone. The Iranians are typically of Persian and in the Shia branch of Islam making them the a definate minority in the dominate Sunni-Arab middle east. If I was in charge of Iran, I'd claim victory right now and say the the "Great White Satan", the US is being pushed by the hand of God and is attempting to make amends by undoing the evil it wrought in Iran through Sadam Husain and liberating our Shiite brothers and sisters from tyrany and oppression.
In our County, one of the Probate Judges send us a "spam" by snail mail, paid for by postage out of the county owned postage meter, I'm nor sure he actualy reimbursed the county for the opstage as he claimed when we call him on it; but anyways doing that in the Army would qualify you for disembowelment irregardless of reimbursment.
I believe that video clips of young people getting dressed after PE is called kiddie-porn and it will get someone into serious trouble with the law including prison time, porrole afterwards and regisitry as a sex offender for the remainder of his life.

C6H10O5 6*12=36, 5*16=80+10, so probably about 25% carbon after you add in some water.

let's see Washington, Oregon and Northern California is a fair bit of rainforrest

Nah, just have one cop or a disgruntaled neighbor phone in an anonymous tip and its enough for most stuff.
