Here's how I would do it: In every election, place McAfee by default onto both the Republican and Democratic candidate list. The parties would have to go to special trouble to delete him from the list each time before someone better could be run. Deleting him would not be tat easy, either; it would take a special "removal tool."

In those days particles were the size of pebbles, and were accelerated with leather catapults. After ISIS gets through with Europe, this will be true once again.

Which is precisely why, as the previous poster indicated above, a precise analysis of the returned vial would have been more helpful than some guy tasting it.
When I visit a new city for the first time, I always start by doing a lot of walking around to get the flavor of the place. There is just one place in the world I have gotten catcalled by cyclists, rather than any demographic of drivers - Portland. In fact cyclists have the drivers so cowed there that they won't even let them pump their own gas.
I wonder how the automated cars are going to handle these cases? Will there be a series of Settings checkboxes that you can use to adjust your car's programming for your political attitude toward cyclists and pedestrians?

Why does Guerlain Shalimar, which smells so great, taste so terrible? The French, of all people, should have been more cognizant of this.

How To Fix Twitter

If Twitter had an option to use current phone GPS location (which should be easy to enable and disable) making tweets, it could identify accounts which were known to be physically near a breaking story, and autogenerate a hashtag like #PhoenixStandoffWeAreThere, with tweets only from those accounts. This would make it the 'world police channel' we have all wanted.
I'm glad you brought that up. I thought of that case, but didn't want to make a short post too complicated. For a collaborative work, such as music created by a band or a drug created by several researchers at a laboratory, the collaborators would write an equity sharing agreement to be filed as part of the copyright/patent, specifying what percentage equity of the IP each person would share. The lifetime limit would apply to each share individually, which would mean that a novel with three co-authors would not go fully public domain until the last co-author died.
A topic to be debated is what happens between the death of the first and last collaborator. The equity contract could be written to include a tontine arrangement, specifying how the equity of a dead collaborator would be redivided among the survivors. This would probably not fly on grounds that it would motivate the survivors killing each other, which is why we don't do tontine life insurance any more. Alternatively, we could have family inherit a decedent's share until the last collaborator died (this would motivate families of collaborators helping survivors live longer!). Or, decedent shares could go to some fund to, say, support research in the patentholder's field or art in the copyright holder's field.
Of all the land-based plant habitats, peaty wetlands would do the best job of sequestering carbon for long periods of time. Just don't go around digging the stuff up and burning it.
"It's the public republican stance/platform that all science and technology should be defunded in favor of creationism and weapon-capable vehicles like the heavy rockets"
No, it's the Democrat position that all science and technology should be defunded because man's hubris white privilege respect for the Hawaiian volcano gods.
Yes, the employee could still be taken to civil court and be cleaned out of his entire assets for the rest of his life, like Thomas-Rasset. This only strengthens my argument.
What accounts for the difference in punishments is that criminal procedure requires a much higher standard of evidence than the junky stuff allowed under civil procedure, and subject to an overall "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard, rather than "preponderance of evidence." Then to arrive at a judgment requires a unanimous jury, not just a majority.
Civil procedure is specially designed to make lawyers rich and extort large amounts of money out of people by intimidation.
Highway speeds like this are already routine in Germany (I have driven there). Drivers are a more select part of the German population than in the US, because the less skilled have alternative transportation.
Investigation of folk botanicals as new soutrces of medicine is routine in pharma and always has been. That's how willow bark tea became aspirin. How many liters of tea would be the equivalent of one 325mg pill, anyway?
Meanwhile, how many endangered species are your Chinese neighbors making disappear in their fruitless search for the elusive senior boner? Viagra saves species that Greenpeace can't be bothered with.

Would the family have to emigrate?
Now consider that IVF fertility technology increases the number of multiple births. Would this become illegal under the new rules?

No, people in your situation use the cellphone form factor this way: http://nypost.com/2014/02/16/p...
Look through that list of "concerned" professors of gender and ethnic studies, and you'll get the idea.

For autodrive cars that stray sufficiently far downtown, this will be how they get jacked.

This motive is also well known in the case of life insurance, so forensics experts are already well prepared for it.

If it simplifies the TV-to-TV peripheral interface, I'm in, regardless of what new streamed content we may get.

It already does.
