The NRA believes the solution to society's problems is for EVERYONE to carry a gun everywhere they go. They want more gun ownership, not less. If you believe the NRA line, you would have to have a gun in your hand every time you go to your front door to answer the doorbell. You would need to carry a gun with you every time you leave your house. The NRA claim that more gun ownership would deter crime is not too surprising when you consider that the NRA is strongly supported by the multi million dollar gun industry. The gun industry would suffer if gun control was enacted and crime decreased. If criminals have less opportunity to buy guns, then honest citizens would have fewer reasons to buy a gun. It seems that the NRA is not a good authority on the success or failure of gun control laws. When the NRA says "guns don't kill" they have the same credibility as the Tobacco Institute when they say cigarettes don't cause cancer.
One of the most serious problems in our schools in this country today is gang violence and the increasing frequency with which children are bringing guns to school. But then again, why WOULDN'T kids bring guns to school when we've always got the National Rifle Association telling us that the only way to protect yourself against crime is to always carry a gun with you everywhere you go.
According to an article in Newsweek magazine, some communities, to combat gang violence, have passed laws prohibiting minors from carrying guns without written parental permission. Incredibly, the NRA filed suit to overturn these laws. I have to wonder if the NRA thinks that the solution to school violence is to arm all the children to deter crime.
Many gun control opponents claim that more gun ownership and less regulated access to guns would reduce crime. In some cities in the U.S. the gun laws have actually been relaxed in an effort to allow the public to gain more access to guns. A study was conducted by the University of Maryland where they studied the homicide rate before and after concealed gun laws were relaxed, in five cities across the U.S. In four out of five cities, the homicide rate increased. Only Portland, Oregon showed a 12 percent decrease in crime. The other 4 cities had significantly different results. The homicide rate increased 3 percent in Miami, 22 percent in Tampa, 74 percent in Jacksonville, Florida, and 43 percent in Jackson Mississippi.
Much is made of the fact that Washington D.C. bans handguns and still has a very high homicide rate. The fact that Washington DC has a high crime rate does not disprove the merits of gun control. It is obvious that the guns are legally bought in other parts of the country where there is little or no gun controls and illegally resold in DC. But in other countries where there are uniform gun control laws across the country, they do not have this problem.
I guess it's time to start bridging those WiFi networks around the world. If you can't beat em, fuck em. I start file sharing over WiFi networks. I look forward to the days of local BBSes again. (WiFi BBS?)
There is a TAX called "ICMS" (Tax over circulation of services and merchandise) that you have to pay if you sell stuff or if you are contracted as a professional to do some job. You as a service provider must have a registration under the city hall so they can track your profits.
I hope that eventually someone incorporates this code into a iTunes client for Linux, as it would be nice to be able to buy music from iTMS but I have no desire to buy a Mac.
Aircraft are designed with the main goal of having a low drag and therefore high fuel efficiency.
So if reducing the sonic boom would reduced drag it already would have been discovered and implemented long ago. Those planes with less noise would probably have a baaaad fluel efficiency.
Well, maybe not:) I don't really now shit about planes anyway.

The chances are that you will not have the same experience with guns as the mugger anyways and prob. he will take your gadgets AND the gun.

If a user is trying to get in and sends two packets of unauthorized data within one second, WPA will assume it is under attack and shut down.
The only thing the h4x0r need to do in this situation is send data frames periodically, causing constant shutdowns.
Annoying enought he may be difficult or impossible to find because he don't need to use much transmit power or utilization of the network
At least here in Brazil they are.
