IOW they "knew" they were used for "storage of military equipment", but not that they were used by the ICRC. They "knew" that because "military vehicles had been seen in the vicinity of these warehouses".
So much for Military Inteligence.

Well, one litre is 0.001 cubic meters, water is water and freezing point is freezing point. I'll leave the rest to somebody with too much time - or somebody with students;-)
The original idea of the king's commission (which included such notables as Lavoisier) was to create a unit of mass that would be known as the "grave". By definition it would be the mass of a litre of water at the ice point (i.e. essentially 1 kg). The definition was to be embodied in an artefact mass standard.
Earlier this year, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) asked interested parties to submit information about patents they own that
might potentially infringe upon the development of scalable vector graphics (SVG).
So Apple reported one of their patents that could in the future conflict with the development of SVG. Sombody read that, combined the two evil buzz-words "Apple" and "patent", and paranoia kicked in. He then scanned through the patent, found "alpha channel", and thought his worst fears had come true. So he called up some buddies and started the usual anti "evil/stupid patent" actions.
Sorry, but your numbers are way off. Let's ignore that it's mW not mA for Power, Trinary logic doesn't need to use 0/5/10 V, it can use -5/0/5 V leading to 25mW, 0mW and 25mW resulting in an average per trit of 16.7mW, with an equivavalent of 11.1mW per bit.
That's a problem of C's very weak typing. 42 | 100 simply doen't make sense, even (0101010)base2 | (1100100)base2 doesn't. Only with the implied casting of decimal to binary and then to bit-field it does.
Radio - doesn't just spontaneously make noise after being silent. The driver of a car generally knows his radio is on and isn't distracted by it.
Many car radios in germany have a feature that recognizes when there is traffic information on a (user-) selected station, and automatically turn the volume up and switch to that station (if you listen to a different one or tape or CD). When the info is over, things go back to what they were before. Some background info
So if a driver doesn't know his radio better than his nav system (actually even then), he could be quite irritatet by both. It certainly anoyed me a couple of times, when the radio began yelling traffic info at me.
So you think the invention of color TV was not patent-worthy?
Let's recap: Apple is evil for patenting something others came up with. No, wait, they didn't. Then they are evil for patenting something "obvious" nobody else came up with.
Compositing can also be used to "blend" two images by controlling the degree to which the two images are merged or averaged. This is often done by a method called "alpha channel blending" in which an 8 bit alpha channel controls the blending of two 32 bit RGB images.
However, while these methods have been useful, they are quite rigid and inflexible in accommodating images of various colors and bit depths, and not able to achieve certain desired effects, such as producing anti-aliased compositions with blended or "soft" edges, or in producing images with patterned or pictured text on a background image. What is desired is a compositing operation in which the mask can be a full color image, which accommodates various color and bit depths, can produce anti-aliased, blended edges, and can produce patterned or pictured text on a background image. The method of this invention provides these and other capabilities.
IOW Apple acknowledges alpha blending as prior art in the patent, the claim is about an extension of it.
Well, not only would his patent(s) have run out by now (if he had some - it doesn't say "On the seventh day he created the patent office and filed patent #000000001 "Creation"), he also told man to exploit his creation any way he could.

Actually, it's Nürnberg (German) or Nuremberg (English). BTW, both the Courtroom in which the trials were held, and the former Nazi party rally grounds can be visited today.
So? Do you think those planes (where is the proof by the way) were the second attack wave? The rest of your post makes even less sense.
And the ISPs have only been *asked* to block the Nazi sites.

If it's a .de domain, it could be somebody hijacked it from DeNIC. Article (in English for a change ;-). This just in: ISIS now does block again
Or X in general.

That's because Kilograms denote mass, not weight. So the kilos will stay the same, but pounds will change.
"Insightful" (or in general, the mod next to the score) is only the last mod it got. Before that it got 1 "Interesting" and 2 "Informative".
Slashdot. At least they are still using GIFs.
All in all, simply self induced FUD.
So let the Computer give (random) words for the user to say for authentication. Gotta catch 'em all and find them.
Anybody else thought this would be a sequel to this?

You don't understand, the same plug-in was much slower if you used (slightly) different settings.
Let's recap: Apple is evil for patenting something others came up with. No, wait, they didn't. Then they are evil for patenting something "obvious" nobody else came up with.
The Quicktime plug-in handles them ;-)
We are thankfull that you don't use Lynx, else you wouldn't do anything but complaining.
