If that truly is the question here, the family probably only stands to lose here. If it was a suicide, there's a chance that cracking open these e-mails will uncover evidence of suicide. But even if the death was accidental, there's almost no chance that the e-mails could possibly reveal evidence of accidental death.
This won't mean the end of the insurance industry, but it will mean even higher insurance premiums, as the insurance companies pass their higher costs along to the customer.
Yep, that's raw text. The LoC is actually doing a lot more scanning of things like old maps, drawings, and photos, and one article I found mentioned that they have about 8 TB of scanned material so far for their American Memory project (see http://memory.loc.gov/ ).
I know. I thought, "A New Kind of Science Collaboration"? What is that, like Stephen Wolfram tells you what to do, and you go, "Thank you, sir, may I have another?"
If only they fixed the bug that happens when you moderate, then you try to comment, the dialog warns you that the moderation you did it will be undone and you can't get out of there.... It's a trap!!!
Highly Republican Arizona isn't far behind, at 8.1%. Except Arizona's state sales tax rate is 5.6%. The rest comes from county and city taxes added on.
and this is the real jawdropper - different-colored money Actually, we have that kind of money here in the US, too. Parker Brothers/Hasbro prints something like $50 billion of it every year.
a vast majority of the five billion simpletons living on the earth Actually, there are six billion simpletons living here. It's just that roughly one billion of them have firmly convinced themselves that they're not simpletons.
If you had to have brain surgery would you prefer someone who has been through medical school, trained and researched in the field, or the student next to you who has read Wikipedia? Neither. I'm choosing the guy who stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.
The reason that Social Security is forecast to go belly-up is because of the huge difference between the number of expected retirees (due to the baby boom) and the number of people expected to be earning a good wage in their younger years. The only fix for this that won't cost each individual taxpayer a crapload of money is to have more taxpayers.
This is enough of a problem that immigration policy should, first and foremost, be about balancing out the population curve so that the burden per taxpayer involved in fixing Social Security is manageable (hopefully permanently, by injecting enough money so that today's taxpayers are paying for their own retirement, not that of their grandparents). The best way to do this is to expand visas for highly-skilled laborers who will earn a good wage, such as H-1B. Furthermore, it's in our best interest to convince these workers to remain in the country permanently and become citizens, rather than taking their expertise back to their countries of origin.
There's a lot of pressure put on doctors to diagnose children with something by parents as well, because in a lot of cases, the lack of a diagnosis can have implications on insurance claims.
Heck, I still think "yellow" is mainly so people who've been waiting can finally make their left turns.... Around here, you usually can't make your left on yellow, because there are cars in the way. The answer is to pull out into the middle of the intersection and wait there. When the light turns red, staying put would be even worse than going, so you go. The fact that four more people behind you also go is their problem.
It's incredible the amount of unsubstantiated credence that some parents of autistic children will give to the thimerosal hypothesis. For example, Jenny McCarthy (who has an autistic child, and I have sympathy for her since it can't be easy) was on Larry King Live the other day, sititng next to someone who was there to debunk the supposed link between autism and thimerosal. His arguments were grounded in science, but she would not be moved, and she was extremely animated and emotional over any suggestion that thimerosal isn't to blame.
I suppose, in some sense, that it's like telling her that her religion is wrong.

(Wikipedia links to the original website at Camp Chaos - then click on "old cartoons" at the right. A lot of the videos are also on YouTube.)
Exactamundo. And the rest of these people dare to call themselves nerds? Sheesh!
I'm reminded of the Star Trek episode where they power the M5 supercomputer with a high-intensity wireless power transfer beam at roughly shin level.

That's also roughly 4 million Libraries of Congress.
Apparently, so is zero.

I was always far more impressed with their Clairvoyant Ejection Seat System. Guaranteed that no Cobra pilot ever went down with his plane.
If this is all true, there's one very simple solution.
Phase 1: Spin off company to handle 4ed-based games, while the original company continues working on 3ed-based games.
Phase 2: ???
Phase 3: Profit!
Somehow, it seems strangely on-topic in this thread to be overly pedantic about the difference between "infer" and "imply".
So, to answer your question: never, but not for the reason you think.
After all, regulations specify thrusters only while in space dock!
