You know, all the device needs to do is LOOK like how a dangerous device might look like to an untrained individual. Then the person would wave it around and threaten things. Also, why does it need to be looking like an improvised explosive device? it could be looking like an improvised GPS/Radar/Radio/Cockpit jammer.
Rule #1 in first year engineering courses should be "Don't take your prototype on an airplane"
No, it means when a your anti-theft device is compromised via a hack and your care is stolen, the insurance company will not believe you and will tell you that you are trying to defraud the insurance company by faking a theft - since the anti-theft device is, by their analysis, "unbreakable". There is already precedence for this.
If you think of the people with googleplus accounts as their market, what percentage of the "global social network marketplace" is the revenue that google generates by charging these people for their accounts? Hmm... $0 / $0 = NaN
Can't you do the same thing as Canadians can do in the U.S.? That is, in your non-native country, go to a 7-11 and purchase a VISA gift card that is preloaded. Use that card to purchase your data plan.
If any children were photographed by the school while taking off their clothes at home for bedtime, then the guilty employees should be charged with collecting child pornography.
This is not really news; there was a different set of researchers last year who found that people taking painkillers like ibuprofin had less emotional hurt when a girlfriend dumped them.... So if you are expecting a messy breakup, take a bunch of ibuprofin as if you had a migrane.
Regarding Robert, the thing even more disturbing to me is that the original official story released, before the bystander video came out, was that in the airport all of the security cameras in that area were not working.
Either they Lied, which should be punishable, or the airport police should be punished for allowing such a major security system to fail in a very large area of an international airport in this post 9/11 era.
This is regardless of whatever happened to Robert.
They have been collecting the tax on writable CD media for a long time - I was told that out of all the money that was collected so far from that levy, none of it has been dispatched to SOCAN, which would be the appropriate place in order for the artists to be compensated.
Does anyone know if this is true or still true? Or has this money been dispatched to the places that they said they would?
BTW last time I saw someone say "I don't have anything to do" actually DID have tons of things he was supposed to do but did not feel like it, and was summarily 'let go' eventually.
It seems that many if not most of the american politicians use gmail/yahoo from their offices to conduct state business on in order to hide from public discovery/freedom of information act... Perhaps the U.S. needs policies like this too!

How much power does the 1.7 Ghz P4 system require vs the Kal-El Quad Core ARM at 1.0 Ghz?
Everything they may replace it with is worse...
Also relevant photos showing the airplane was damaged before impact: missing elevator
Another photo series: impact

Here are some interesting photos which may show that there was mechanical failure: Elevator trim tab missing

Correct! No ads yet!

So why do they do it?

Market share?
The people who use facebook do not represent facebook's customers. They are the product which is sold to the advertisers.
Facebook's market share is related to the advertisers.
This is the same with google.
Perhaps in terms of 'Social Network oriented advertising market share', facebook's market share is bigger than google?

AT&T in USA does not accept an out of country credit card to pay for cell phone plans.

Do they pay the coders this much too? or are the code submissions all donated?
I wonder what Google would lobby for?

How does the "scientific method" apply here? Are all the scientists involved using the "Scientific Method?"

No, there was also a misspelling. The correct phrase was: "The geek shall internet the earth"

What could amazon have done if they were actually selling real BOOKS of 1984 and this happened?
Are books normally sold or licensed?
Are any e-books sold instead of being licensed?
