I have taken classes in both the electrical engineering and computer science deparrtments of this university, and I find it really hard to believe that some tabloid would imply that a student from one of these programs would have the knowhow to pull something like this off.
I'm sick and tired of small time tabloids, such as "Security Week" or the "US Department of Justice" ruining the reputation of my alma mater like this.
What, so now they're making spacecrafts out of epoxi? I mean, sure I would expect the Chinese or Indian space programs to pull such. We'll lose our innovative edge if we can't do better.
I used to apply electric currents to my head while studying in the bathroom. It was really embarrassing later, though, when people knocked on the door to make sure I wasn't jacking on.
Just like all other technology ventures that have gone to China, the chinese are just going to infringe on the innovation from the western world's Linux technology and copy it without payi- oh I see what you did there.
We're simply swapping from ineffective democrats that want to take my guns away and give all my money to the lobbyist interests to ineffective republicans that want to take my aborted fetuses away and give all my money to the lobbyist interests. Progress is zero sum.
Something like a protest at the G20 can go really wrong really fast. With people surrounding the talks protesting everything from 9/11 conspiracies to lizard men to capitalism and whatnot, and many of them genuinely enraged for some reason or another, we're not talking about necessarily the most peaceful group. I've worked crowd control at an amusement park to pay for college, I had to be a complete jerk when I worked that job just to keep people in the queue rails from destroying entire rides. I know, it's a terrible analog to riot police at a G20 protest, but the point still stands.
The US, after having been ravaged by nuclear war, will be caught on a power struggle between anarchy and an ultra-survivalist group, the Holnists. The only people who will be able to save us then will be Kevin Costner, Ford-Lincoln-Mercury, and president Richard Starkey. Also, Tom Petty will be the mayor of a town.
If you think that university professors make an "ass tone" of money from their grants, then you have a piss-poor understanding of how university research is conducted. A professor can make 6 figures, but most are hard working, 5-figured earners who have to bust ass in both the classroom and the lab. Sometimes a professor gets a little something extra, but it's not much.
When somebody at the university level gets a grant, part of that money goes straight to the university, some of it is used for equipment, and the rest of it goes towards paying grad students.
On top of that, if a professor wants to go to a conference to present a paper, the university most likely isn't going to pay for it. The cost of the air fare, the hotel, and the conference admission fee (which can cost over $1000 in some cases) are paid for out of pocket.
The people making money off of climatologists work are individuals not affiliated with research, usually they are con artists who sell "carbon credits" and "green" toilet paper and the likes.
In order to prove it was fraudulent, though, you would have to show that Mann intentionally misrepresented his work, which is really hard to do if he was submitting anything to a journal (especially one with a high impact factor,) as the review panels for journals are absolutely ferocious and will tear you apart. On top of that, you have other researchers, who, aching to live by the "publish or die" virtue of their careers, would love to rip into somebody's published work if it meant having something worth publishing themselves. It's a vicious cycle that keeps itself in check.
I worked in a research lab, mostly as a software engineer, and was put as an author on a paper for which I did about 1,000 pages worth of reading, and even then, that's considered a minor contribution to the lab's research. This paper was submitted to several minor conferences, and even then, it wasn't accepted until about a year's worth of refinement and criticism from reviewers.
If there was any attempt of committing fraud, it would have been discovered by other researchers aiming to get a piece of the action as soon as it was published, especially in a controversial field like climatology.
The statistical predictor used being possibly erroneous does not mean that fraud was committed. Correction of previous research is what research is all about. Tell me, did Cuccinelli ever go after any other researcher who was proven wrong after further research? Should we go back in time and accuse Stephen Hawking for fraud for being wrong about some behavior's of black-holes? Obviously he fraudulently came to his ideas and certainly didn't form his explanations off of the most relevant available data at the time.
Oh, but wait, of course climatologists are committing fraud because a bunch of nobody's, who can hack into email accounts, but otherwise could not list the steps of the scientific method without first doing a google search or asking a 3rd grader, said so.
Not for long. The shadow government/freemasons must silence him before he reveals the hidden message. Check out www.911vaccinemoonlandingtruth.org for more info. Fight the power.
I'll throw it down a flight of stairs and give them these black and blue smudges on their LCD screens every now and then; but I only do it because I love them, and they have to learn that when I say "bitch, automake me a Makefile," I expect it now and nothing should be reporting to standard error. I'm that machine's user because it wasn't good enough for anybody else.

Music lessons would probably benefit him more.
I'm soooooo worried that people might have to give us more money and use more electricity.

However I have a hard time plopping down $1000+ for a gaming PC when games on a $300 xbox or playstation look only marginally worse.

Your argument is terribly flawed; Taco Bell doesn't serve French fries.

I'd imagine you'd need a pretty fast FPGA, which can be fairly costly if you're just a basement dweller.
This seriously sounds like it could be the boss lineup for a Megaman X game.
