$250 isn't really that much when you consider you are getting an experience that will stand as a benchmark in your life. $250 really doesn't buy much real-world experience anymore. Thats like filling up my car 8 times.
Do you realize journalism in the US is dead because the public is perfectly happy to be knee-jerked every five minutes for the thrill. Use your head a little more.
I'm a programmer and I run 3.5 miles 2 of every 3 evenings and 1.5 miles each following morning. During crunch times near project deadlines I'll spend 18+ hours a day behind the computer. Probably wouldn;t be able to with the exercise keeping me fit.
US Government doesn't give enough information to the public there US Government is bad.
US Government Gives Too Much information to the public there US Government is bad.
US Govermnet translates documents to skew them to their own meaning there US Government is bad.
US Government releases documents for the puclic to translate therefore US Government is bad.
Give me a fcking break.
And I won't even bother explaining the tons of goofy dialects that make translating Arabic from anywhere very difficult. You practically have to have a translator born in the neighborhood where the document was written. I took Arabis for a year and went nuts when learning every phrase went like: This is how the phrase is said in Saudi Arabis; this is how it is said in Egypt, this is how it is said in Kuwait, this is how it is said in this part of Bahrain... and so on.
No matter what you do to design a system there will always be some hack who comes along to crap on your project. Just because you think you know better doesn't make it true. It certainly doesn't help that sites like this one jump on every little aberrant report like a pack of jackals.
First Point: You really don't know what you are talking about (from a technical or legal perspective).
Second Point: You found out about the program through leaks from the congressional comittee (Democrats) being briefed on the program). They counted on the public being too stupid to understand the hairsplitting done to call the program something differennt than wiretapping and thus making FISA approval unneccesary.
Third Point: You really should be aware that this is the typical second term ploy to turn the sitting president into a lame duck so congress can garner even more power. They usually accomplish this by apealing to the 30% of the population that really hate their own country and/or have no clue how the real world works.
A government that sometimes acts in secret cannot be said to be a democratic government, because the citizens cannot supervise what they don't know.
Actually, the US is a Constitution-based federal republic; strong democratic tradition. And actually those "secret" things are actually done with oversight by the people's elected representatives. But I'm sure you're too stupid or brainwashed to bother learning that.
Ok, so like 90% of what CIA does is not covert operations. They actually employ secretaries and useless middle management folks like other organizations. Not everyone is a uber kool secret agent. In fact, that secret agent role is a tiny portion of what they do. see for yourselves.
(a) Delegation of a New Top Level Domain. Delegation of a new top level domain requires the completion of a number of procedures, including the identification of a TLD manager with the requisite skills and authority to operate the TLD appropriately. The desires of the government of a country with regard to delegation of a ccTLD are taken very seriously. The IANA will make them a major consideration in any TLD delegation/transfer discussions. Significantly interested parties in the domain should agree that the proposed TLD manager is the appropriate party. The key requirement is that for each domain there be a designated manager for supervising that domain's name space. In the case of ccTLDs, this means that there is a manager that supervises the domain names and operates the domain name system in that country. There must be Internet Protocol (IP) connectivity to the nameservers and electronic mail connectivity to the entire management, staff, and contacts of the manager. There must be an administrative contact and a technical contact for each domain. The administrative contact must reside in the country involved for ccTLDs. The IANA may choose to make partial delegations of a TLD when circumstances, such as those in a developing country, so dictate. It may also authorize a "proxy" DNS service outside of a developing country as a temporary form of assistance to the creation of Internet connectivity in new areas. [N.B. The IANA continues to receive inquiries about delegation of new gTLDs. This is a significant policy issue on which ICANN will conduct a careful study and review based on the established decision making procedures. Information about this study will be disseminated on the website at icann.org.]
I don't seriously see MS looking the fool and admitting they can't write a decent browser by buying Opera. Google OTOH may have a use for their own browser expecially if thay are pushing for the whole "two tier internet" deal. I recall a story a while back where they were buying up the "dark fiber". Together maybe being able to have a browser that is standards compliant and able to handle custom protocols makes sense.
The other side of the story not being told is that the loser just spent a crapload of money putting together a detailed award proposal and probably never had a real chance in the first place. I've been on that side of the deal too. When you bid this stuff it is hard to know if this is an honest offer unless you (illegally) have someone on the inside feeding you information. At lot of big contracts, especially government ones, have outcomes decided before the bidding even starts.

Do yourself a favor. Ignore this joker and go buy some of the books of Einstein's writings.
