The reason ogg ranks above mp3 is that the vast majority of mp3s are of copyrighted songs and its too dangerous to put them were google can see them. Those willing to license their music more freely are more likely to be more freedom conscious in general and pick ogg. Mp3 is still WAY more popular.
We don't have all the answers, but we have this one. You are misapplying the second law of thermodynamics. Only closed systems become more chaotic over time. The earth is not a closed system.
Also, Einstein's statement with regard to quantum mechanics is completly unrelated to evolution. Evolution is not "random chance." This is a misconception. Evolution, in a system such as ares, not only does occur, but must. While each indevidule mutation is random, the selection of which mutations are to be preserved is not random at all. Only those mutations which help and organism to survive are preserved. This is completly logical. There is no need for such a process to be guided by a creator.
My own conception of God is not as some conscious, judgement making entity which designed the universe, but as essentially the processes of the universe themselves. Natural selection is not guided by God, it IS god. In the same way, I am God, in that my life process is God. Everything is divine.
No, but the developer could create an option for the business people to enter a dollar value into. Of course, for all we do he did do that, and the business people just didn't use it.

It doesn't...once a liquid gets to the boiling point, it becomes a gas.
This has absolutly nothing to do with episode 3. I guarentee you the feds have been running the stings that resulted in this action since long before episode 3 was released. The mention of star wars was just for the media.
Its not like they put anything in the credits that isn't public knowledge. They just list some groups they like. If anyone wanted a list of groups all they'd have to do is go to a site like nforce.nl.
Actually, I think its a pretty good choice of name. Just about all of the high level sites (including those not raided) which display "site down" in their irc channels for at least a couple weeks. Usually when a major stike like this occurs (Operation FastLink on 4/21/04 being the last such strike) all of the high level sites shut down as a percausion for a while.
I'm sure that they do but I don't really have access to the actual articles in either so I'm forced to get what I can out of the news summery. Since you are an authority on this matter I figured I'd ask you.
Isn't it likely that the reason they moved their eyes in the original research was that they didn't immediatly remember which side the correct object was on, and therefore had to look at at least one of them first to determine if it was the right one?
This is extremly obvious, and I'm really not sure what is so new about the research. Also, reading the article, its clear it doesn't really prove anything. If the brain really was an on-off processer, then perhaps it is smart enough to test just the beginnings of each word, on or off, and not move the mouse in any perticular direction until there is only one match. How is this at all surprising? Why would the researches expect anyone to move their mouse towards the wrong choice at first? I'm not saying I don't think the brain is different from a computer in many, many ways, I'm just saying this experiment doesn't really show it.
Its not really just that. Alot of it has to do with the fact that people who are under the influence of marijuana are more aware that they are impaired than those under the influence of alcohol, and so the correct for it somewhat.
You're thinking too small. Think on a global scale. Giant rings require energy to build, as well as rare elements that are limited. Where does that energy come from? Oil? Coal? We're still churning out CO2...
I hate to say this as a liberal, but I think the court has gotten too cought up in precident. Precident is important, but not to the point where the original meaning of the constitution is entirely lost.

You don't know what you are talking about. She was jailed because she is in contempt of court.
"Grammer Check!!!"
Does anyone check their comments anymore?
(It's grammar.)
Or Apple.

Not really.
Thats why you really can't argue with these people. Everything they claim is completly unfalsifiable.
Well it seems to be well preserved by evolution, so it must be evolutionarily important somehow.
Sadly, this will never be allowed to happen.

Freenet is not at all well adapted to scene releases. Let me know when freenet has a gigabit of bandwidth.

Math formulas and other such things. Wikipedia is your friend.
How would any acronyms come into the general lexicon then?
It is still significantly more dangerous that driving when not under the influence. I'm all for legalization but not to that extreme.
Well, is clerk did.
