Try Woods Metal, although it is probably not really that much safer (contains lead and cadmium). Melts at 65 deg C (150 F for the metric impaired) though, so a regular processor should keep it liquid with no problems.
Well, IMHO it is very consistent. Religion and state should be separated. So the state should not support religious schools. And the state should not care if some people have problems with abortions because of their religious beliefs.
So in both cases it is about the separation of state and religion. Is that so hard to get?
AFAIK Bush is against embryonic stem cell research. "Normal" adult stem cell therapy is available for Americans and used widely and very successfully, e. g. to replace the immune cells of cancer patients whose immune system was totally destroyed by chemotherapy. Since bone marrow stem cells are adult stem cells, I guess this technology will be available to Americans if it proves useful and safe (even if, god forbid, Bush gets reelected).
Actually, all of November is in autumn, at least on the northern hemisphere. But in the original article, they also say, it will be released in autumn 2005 (of course only, if they do not decide to postpone it, because it would coincide with the release of Duke Nukem Forever).
That is true, but the 8.5 x 11 has a width-length ratio of about 1.29, whereas the 11 x 17 has a ratio of 1.54. A sheet of 17 x 22 again has the ratio of 1.29 and so on.
The DIN A formats all have the ratio of square root 2. That makes it very easy to scale stuff up or down, e.g. if you use a copy machine: copy 2 DIN A4 (= DIN A3) on one DIN A4 without messing up the margins. Cut the sheet in half and you have 2 DIN A5 pages that exactly look like the DIN A4 pages, only half the size.
It will probably make shoplifting impossible, combined with RFIDs on the products that could be stolen. The shoplifter sneaks out the store and hears a friendly spoken "Thank you for shopping with K-Mart!" message. D'oh!
I will go now and try to get one of the readers for those implanted RFIDs. Then I will place it on a busy street and bill every person only $9.99 that passes by to close to the reader;-)
One thing that people often forget, is that a "true" democracy always requires a bill of rights. So ideally, the passing of laws that would treat Muslims pretty poorly should not be possible in a democracy, because it would violate an existing bill of rights.
Good thing, that this administration knows this and adheres to the amendments of the constitution. Oh no, wait...
Well, if you are riding a motorbike and your engine runs out of oil, there is a big chance that the "ejection seat" is activated: The piston seizure will block the wheel and while your bike imediately stops on the highway, you will continue your ride involuntarily a couple hundred feet...
So it is more like saying it's Harley Davidsons fault, that your oil is low.
In Germany they found tissue samples on the bike of a young victim of a murder which led to a suspect who was already convicted for several sexual assaults. But the suspect was in a high security prison cell at the time of the murder. Here is the article (unfortunately German, maybe the fish can help..).
I don't want to dismiss the idea of DNA evidence, to the contrary, I think it is a very valuable tool in the search for justice and truth. But DNA evidence is not the only thing one should rely on in a criminal conviction if all the other evidence conflicts with it.
IANAL, but I am pretty sure one cannot apply this ruling to compressed music-files. A conversion of a music file into a compressed format (e.g. a song from a CD converted to mp3) is not comparable to a thumbnail, because a conversion of an image file into a compressed format (e.g. a tiff converted to a jpeg-file) would also not constitute as a thumbnail.
Well, a large part of the "junk DNA" is probably regulatory DNA, that means DNA, that is not coding for RNA and eventually proteins, but helps the cellular DNA transcriptional machinery figure out when to express specific genes.
BTW, not all organisms have such a large part of non-coding DNA as humans do. Bacteria in average have about 90% of coding DNA (or only 10% of "junk DNA") and some viruses even have a coding density greater than 100%, that means they can transcribe the very same DNA in different frames. Just to explain this very briefly: DNA can be read in 6 different ways, since each codon consists of 3 bases. So if you read any piece of DNA, you could start at the 1st, the 2nd or the 3rd base and every time you get another "message". And since DNA is usually double stranded, you can read the complementary strain "backwards" to get a 4th, 5th and 6th message. What a cool molecule!

Just what we need. A couple more kids that think they have to get anything they want right here, right now and never learn to compromise.
I mean kids cannot agree on which movie to watch in the car?!? In my times we read a book. Sheesh...

A combination with these monitor simulating goggles would be the perfect solution to solve this problem.

Well you have to take LDS first, than it might work...

"Mmmmmm, funnel cake..."
That is why I drink only Smirnoff 100 proof. 50 % less dihydrogen monoxide than tap water!
I better get some of those 800 speed films then for my next vacation...
That sounds interesting.

It is really convenient to have the political opinions of your citizens stored in a database together with name, (e-mail-)address and the like!
