DOn't get too excited about the US loving democracy and Bush being forced to save the oppressed. There's a shit-load of countriws with oppressed people that the US couldn't give a monkjeys about. Pick a West African nation. Hell - remember Afghanistan? The US needs China more than it needs Taiwan. And it can't do anything to stop China. And it has unequivocally stated that it does not support Taiwan's referendum (on independence) and that it supports the status quo (ie Taiwan "arguably" under Chinese control / rule.)
Bush has unequivocally stated that he supports the status quo. If China invades Taiwan, Bush will strenuously object, but will eventually say that its an internal matter and they won't get involved. The US needs China too much.
Not quite. You can copyright the instantiation of the data, though not the data itself. For example, SETI could not copyright the data they received (anyone can receive it), but they could certainly copyright the way that data was presented (printing the results on paper).
There may be a way...

A lot of loans only require penlaties if you pay the loan out in full. So what you do is you pay it *almost* all out - leave a month or two's repayments in there. You thus avoid the pay-out tax, and alhtough you'll pay some interest, it'll only be a month or two's worth.
It worked for my home loan & saved me many 10s of thousands of dollars.
Dude, this is based on a report by the Herald Sun for chrissakes! The Herald Sun is a zero-cred newspaper - it's the kinda paper tat has "B-52 Bomber found on Moon" as a headline (actually it didn't, but it's STILL that kind of paper).
I'd be interested in seeing how well octupi developed in 0-g conditions. Octupi (like squid) grow & multiply at phenonmenal rates (they're probably the only realistically "sustainable" ocean food resource). High in nutritional value, fast growing, versatile... I'm curious.
He wrote "Foucault's Pendulum", which although not as well known as Rose, is a superior book. Lots of interesting digressions on the nature of knowledge...
I don't know what you use Office97 for, but in the environment I work in (big law firm), *most* of the features you list are *invaluable*. In fact, the only ones mentioned that we rarely use are Style Gallery, Merge Documents, and Formula. Everything else gets used on a daily basis. Ever tried managing a 400 page submission written by 10 people over the course of 6 months?
I've heard the same thing. However, I was under the impression (can't remember where I read this) that yawns are "catching" because they are used as a social signifier that "it's bed time now"... gets everyone in the mood for a snooze...
The addiction to the nicotine per se is broken within 3 days. The psychological addicition is the real hard part. When you (try to) quit smoking cold turkey, you're a *complete* prick for the first three (+ or -) days - this is becasue your body still craves the nicotine & you're a scary monster because you *need* the drug. After that, it's all about breaking the "habit" of 1 with your morning coffee, 1 after a meal, a packet with beer etc... this is the *really* hard part as any ex-smoker will tell you.
I know the parent's been modded up as funny, but it's also +5 insightful. Nicotine's not that bad for you. Sure, it's incredibly addictive, but aside from that it's pretty much ok. There are even some benefits associated from taking moderate amounts of nicotine (helps you focus, is one). As a LONG time smoker, I'd LOVE to have a cigarette that gave me the nicotine hit, but didn't feed me all the nasty carcinogens & gloopy tar shit my lungs are full of.

Perhaps its your dinky wink. Or your winky dink.

No he didn't. He got 15,000 himself, out of a total of $47,000. RT whole FA, not just the first paragraph.

I suspect the Flamebait moderation might be for the sig.
