eBay / PayPal routinely shaft sellers out of PayPal payments, sweetly telling the post-coital shaftees to, "Read your user agreement, you explicitly agreed to accommodate our shaft."
Apparently those Kazaa guys' lawyers were skilled at placing a StealthShaft(TM) in the contract.
I suspect that the rocket's first stage will have a Radium - Aluminum - Phosphorus based fuel (RAALPh) and will propel the ALICE stage to the moon. Straight to the moon. One of these days.
Could a college radio station set up a streaming server in another country to avoid these fees?
Station has a connection to Canadian server, and all streaming to listeners is done from Canada, or some other country with minimal copyright restrictions.
Why is all the development on electric and electric-hybrid cars going into fancy new systems with lithium ion batteries or hydrogen fuel cells and (for hybrids) complicated switching between a conventional drive train and electric motors, instead of using and improving upon the time-tested diesel-electric technology which has efficiently powered many trains for quite some time now?... SNiP...the technology has already existed in widespread use on trains for decades!
So why isn't anybody doing it in cars? Is there a good technical or economic reason?
Diesel locomotives use turbine engines, aren't regularly subjected to stop and go traffic, can pollute like crazy, and don't need as high a power to weight ratio as passenger cars.
In a passenger car a diesel hybrid would be essentially be a gasoline hybrid with a piston diesel engine.
Volkswagon had a 70MPG prototype, but I don't believe it made it to production. Much of the increase in mileage of a diesel hybrid over a Prius would be due to the fact that diesel has about 12% more energy per volume.
Gasoline engines are more suited than diesels to the rapid start / stop cycles in hybrid cars.
It's pee. Soylent Yellow is made out of pee. They're making our drink out of pee. Next thing they'll be breeding us like cattle for poo. You've gotta tell them. You've gotta tell them!
Place this in stark contrast to Lost, where it's clear that there is no long term game plan and they're just trying to keep people guessing for as long as possible. What's the point in guessing if there isn't, and never has been, an answer?
The meandering plot arcs of Lost all make sense when you realize that in the series finale they find Gilligan.

What's a district attorney to do when someone anonymously sends the D.A. an email with kiddie porn attached? Technically, the D.A. downloaded it.
I felt a great disturbance in the Smug, as if millions of fanboys suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
Not by the court's order, but that the Daily Mail actually published a decent, non-sensationalistic article.

Take it eBay. Take it.

Why not just arm one of these.
Yes. Although they sometimes call it pudding.
I hear that the Port of Buenos Aires was sent 31 shipping containers of British food.
Wake me up when they figure out how to make them exhale beer.
I could go for a cold MausBraü about now.

Ack - very few locomotives use turbines. Not sure what I was thinking.
I'm off to make some coffee.
