NETELLER is based in the Isle of Man, and neither Lawrence nor Lefebvre is a U.S. citizen.
Since Neteller isn't located in the United States, the FBI wouldn't have any jurisdiction to seize their assets or whatnot. Instead, they decided to do the next best thing ('best' being from the FBI's point of view): wait until individuals who either have or have had authority within the company while offenses were being committed travel into their jurisdiction.
Now that I think about it, I wouldn't be surprised if this was the case. Take a controversial public figure, pay him to do what he's famous for, and set up a false conflict. Gamers will flock to your product out of spite for your 'enemy', and anyone who's convinced by his rhetoric wouldn't be buying your games in the first place. Genius!
Well, except for the judicial system wanting your head on a pike after they find out you've been using the courtroom as a PR outlet. Nothing a few campaign contributions wouldn't fix, though...
You mean Alaska has an honorable Senator with the same name as the bridge guy? What are the odds?
No, it's from Alasak, which is like Bizarro-Alaska. Here, the senators are honorable, the winters are quite pleasant, and they really *are* in a box off the coast of Mexico.
"Avenger's Shield Hurls a Holy Shield at the enemy, dealing 270 to 330 Holy damage, dazing them then jumping to nearby enemies. Affects three targets."
Why not just change the class name to Captain America while you're at it?
Does this mean there'll be a "Server Crash" card where I get to throw all the cards off the playing area and demoralize my opponent to the point of forfeiting?

On the contrary, I think the grinding would never stop.
This will complement nicely those audiophiles who emit DNA every time they listen to their $30,000 hi-fi systems.
Damn, I could have sworn I scraped it off my shoe.
Also, when given a choice most people pick their own instead of someone else's.
I don't know, I don't think it would be a good idea to send a 20-pound package to the Boston police marked "Warning: Sensitive Electronics".
Everyone knows he pulled that patent out of his ass.
This site goes to 11.

I don't know about where you work, but my co-worker's e-mails look like Dilbert excerpts regardless of the font.
And guess what you'll get when you divide a number by zero and then multiply it by three?
if everyone could suddenly identify who the geniuses were, the not-so-geniuses would immediately kill them all out of fear, or jealously, or whatever.
So Wikipedia's like high school?
Ironically, I copy the movies off DVDs just so I don't have to watch that crap.
Ironically, I copy the movies off DVDs then erase the files from my hard drive just so I don't have to watch the movies.
I know it's been over six months since I've seen one like it.
if you've got a trojan on your computer you're going to be fucked
I'll take "Things a computer has in common with a penis" for $1000, Alex.
I don't think that'll work. People have been letting go of helium-filled balloons as long as they've been around and it hasn't done shit yet.

I think it boils down to this:
How do you check to see if a woman has breast cancer? Feel them up! Conclusion: Cool, sign me up!
How do you check to see if a man has prostate cancer? Shove a finger or three up their ass! Conclusion: Whoa buddy, no thanks!
Even my girlfriend has been bugging me every week asking me when we can go buy one.
I wish *my* girlfriend looked forward to playing with my Wii with such enthusiasm.
It would be like using a box truck to pick up a your groceries.
The internet is not a big truck! It's a series of tubes!

Yeah, I saw Demolition Man too.

Hey man, whatever you want to do with a communist midget is none of my business, but the only fetish we allow on Slashdot involves grits.
