"The system" in this case is inherently flawed.
After initial HIV infection, it can take up to six months for someone to start producing HIV antibodies (seroconvert). And unfortunately, most HIV tests don't check for viral load, but check for the presence of antibodies.
So basically, you have a window period of up to six months where you are contagious but will come up negative on tests.
How ironic it would be if the guy who attributes his success to Scientology, kills his company's sales through forcing it to be taught to his employees.;p
In the past three months I've encountered some increasingly sophisticated attacks on web servers, all in the name of getting specific scripts in front of very specific visiting users, all so that their browsers will run off to a laundry list of Chinese IP addresses and slurp up Trojan-installing malware that in turn sniffs keystrokes and piles up local files system objects into ZIP files that are then sent to OTHER Chinese IP addresses.
When China opts to censor Internet access, the IOC wrings its hands and thoroughly "regrets" it... but they don't dare, you know, actually *do* anything about it.
When Iraq dissolves their national Olympic committee (alleging corruption), the IOC is outraged and bans the country from participating. (They weren't nearly as outraged, for some reason, when the Husseins oversaw Iraq's Olympic representation and tortured athletes who failed to perform up to expectations.) I realize they've since lifted the ban, but the fact that they ever placed it is a travesty.
I, for one, refuse to support the current hypocrisy that is the Olympics.
Tell me, what magnanimous acts of philanthropy has RMS performed lately?
He might be a skilled programmer, but as far as his ideas go... he's got so many stars in his eyes that he's completely lost touch (if he ever had it) with the real world.
The "article" is nothing more than a message board post on one of the sites in question, by one of the site's administrators, loudly proclaiming how much better they are than the other site because they don't "censor" people. Oh, and it was submitted by an AC.
Call me cynical, but I'm not seeing the news here, just a sly attempt at advertising.

... I don't think there's going to be a single serious comment in this thread.
Touche. Close, though. :P
A article about resurrection on Good Friday, perfect timing. ;)
InfoWars, LOL
Pandora is the owner of the box, she wasn't what came out of it.

Who needs directions? It's literally right down the street from RayJay. :P
Everyone start making excessive Skynet jokes!
And yet you're posting as AC. :p

As one of my professors loved to say:
You can fire someone for no reason, but you can't fire them for the wrong reason.
Minor nitpick: Ahtisaari is Finnish, not Norwegian.
Worst arcology ever. :(
Erm...
This may be one of those US/English things, but where I come from, "dike" and "dyke" mean two different things. ;p
Wouldn't you expect to find gay dick up the elephant's, er, other orifice?
Creaming tax money?
I don't want to know... I don't want to know...
ELTs aren't triggered manually - they activate if they're jolted hard enough. (Most ELT activations are false alarms.)

Ah, you read the World of Warcraft forums too?
And then what are they going to do with all the manufactured products they made to export?

That is, by far, one of the most impressively biased summaries I've ever read.
I'm seeing a lot of "Anonymous says" in the comments... is Anonymous going to war with the DHS as well?
The Air Force is ahead of you.
