Wouldn't the plutonium canisters survive re-entry? I remember watching something on Mr. Wizard years ago showing plutonium casings subjected to severe abuse and coming out without a scratch.
If you don't you'll be surrounded by hoodlum neighbors and pisspoor schools.
Thats a way of life in the suburbs of the metro areas. People will pay ridiculous sums of money for the privilege of living apart from the undesirables (blacks, hispanics, white trash, etc).
These guys sound totally radical, dude. I'll bet they show up to meetings by parachuting with an airboard, juggling knives and puppies all the way down and chug Sobe afterward. Xtreme!

If you can boot from the cdrom (if you can't, there is a great bootdisk available that the name escapes me), check out Knoppix-STD. You can boot right from the disc as with other Knoppixes and see if the card will work with their configuration of Kismet, airsnort, and other tools.
If you like it, you can do an image install easily with the included Knoppix install scripts and is easy to maintain with its Debian base.

Those who were truely not involved in stealing DirecTV's signal should have allowed the lawsuit to go forward, let DirecTV put on their case, and then move for dismissal immediately after that case before even needing to put on a defense.
Many people don't have the financial resources to have a lawyer get them to that point. If DirecTV plays hardball, they can stall the proceedings and bankrupt the defendant. For some it is better to settle and be done rather than spend even more money, possibly losing the farm before getting the results they want.
Was it In-N-Out or Chik-fil-a that Schlosser held up as a high standard in employee treatment? Managers making excellent wages, college tuition reimbursement, health plan available for all employees, etc.
I'm told this is customary in the military. If someone is killed, his army buddy or CO will clear out the pics with thai prostitutes and other offending items from their personal effects so their memory won't be tarnished.
The way night vision goggle work is that they emit infrared light that can be detected by the goggles. Sort of like a flashlight that can only be seen by special equipment.
If the spurious infrared light interferes with the camcorder, then that's more of a side benefit. The goal here is to see if there are any cameras in use in the crowd.
Neat experiment: Take your remote control (Television, vcr, whatever) and point it at the lens of your digital camera while looking at the lcd. You'll see a flashing dot of infrared light.

You can't just sing any more, you have to look good too.
This has always been true since musical groups became more visible in the 20th century. Do you think Aretha Franklin would get a recording contract if she looked like she does today?
As a professional historian, my immediate response is against this sort of thing - it essentializes history and is likely to remove much of the complexity from history for the students.
That's exactly how history is taught now. Students aren't taught that there are nuances, differing sides or versions to history. They are taught a bunch of immutable facts and dates.

Let's push for some more biodiversity of paranoia!
I agree. Saran-wrap and wax paper hat people are sorely underrepresented here.

I don't think the guy with a coke-filled balloon in his ass will let you ride on his back.
Did Mike crank "Magic Carpet Ride" on his way up?
A: No. They've got to do it twice, in quick succession.
On top of that, they must have two passengers or the weighted equivalent of two passengers with the pilot.
Others control brake bias
The million dollar racecars usually have that. The brakes on my economy car on the other hand spout racial slurs with alarming regularity.

What distro?
I read your whole post and failed to find a single mention of Dr. Dre or Eazy E.

Very similar to Al Capone. For all of his rumrunning, racketeering, murder and other activities, he was only successfully prosecuted for tax evasion.
It's sad when people need tubes running to the bathroom just to keep the GPU or CPU cool.
Do we really want to know what's running through those tubes?

burglars stole my shitty stereo (w/o the faceplate), my cds and $20 binoculars, but they left a (very portable) $400 unicycle in the back seat.
The day a chop shop takes in a unicycle is a sad day for the automobile theft community as a whole.
In the spirit of the Gutenberg name, seems like there is a new Perl module that simulates Steve Gutenberg's career.
