Heh looks like I was wrong about the bloggers as shown by, "Sen.NullProcPntr (855073) on Saturday January 12, @10:37AM (#22014622)
Yes, the CES created two classes: "press" and "blogger", and yes, members of that underclass acted in a juvenile manner, bad enough to cause a stink that will appear in the "press". According to CNET's Rafe Needleman Gizmodo attended the event -- and pulled their silly stunt -- with full press credentials, not second-class blogger badges."
Reading deeper it shows Brian Lam with a Press Pass. So really it's just them being jerks, irregardless of Press or Blogger badges.
Mmm I see your point, but I don't think vandalism would cover it properly, you're not really destroying anything, and not trying to do it to sabotage the presentation. Trespass perhaps. *shrug*
Sure it's like a medium, but for blogs their revenue comes from impressions and ads served, much like a newspaper, but unlike a newspaper there isn't professional vetting. In some cases they will act professional and not resort to juvenile tactics, in others they will resort to exactly that. (not including Yellow Papers in this, naturally.)
Really it boils down to if you want to be treated professionally, act professionally, more so when your already being scrutinized.
Well if the blogger's aren't willing to act like professionals, then they won't be treated as professionals.
In the article it stated they weren't being taken as seriously as the Press; and when someone decides it'd be cute to do some practical joking, at the expense of others, it just reaffirms the assumptions they aren't to be taken seriously.
How much of the information is redundant however? Is it 158 million American's, 158 Million people across the globe, or 30 Million people 5 times over?
A speeding ticket is an infraction of the law (albiet a minor one). As it is, it is indeed a criminal trial. However, you are correct that you can have a jury in both a criminal and civil court.
Since the PATRIOT act, they can not photocopy millitary ID, so no.
I did a Google for a source, and could not find one; but I got this from a person who I went to photocopy their Military ID and they told me that much.
Because Pine is not GPL/BSD Licensed open source program, it is owned by the Washington University and they allow you to make local changes, distribute free of charge, or charge in a packaged distribution for the packaging of the programs (IE not for pine/pico), but you are not allowed to comercially sell it, and must apply a local tag (L) to the patches or versions you change and distribute.

Granted it is a pretty open license, but UW Still owns it.
Not arguing that at all, but if it's weapons-grade it's not likely to be small enough to be ingested or powered unless your are machiening it, as wiki states as well;)
Mm I love when I get marked as troll too, when uh... I wasn't trying.:P
Actually no, since it's an alpha emitter, the radiation doesn't tend to get far enough to cause damage, the biggest risk plutonium can cause, inside or outside the body is by explosion. It's less toxic then caffiene, and your risk of getting radiation poisoning are not high unless you powder it and inhale it, and even then you'll still not die immediatly. Our bodies naturally have amounts of measureable PU in them.
Now if you get enough to make a super critical mass of the stuff, then yea, the radiation is going to be much stronger and hurt you a hellalot more. But over all the "effects" of the poisonous nature of PU are exagerated. At best. There hasn't been a single person who's died of plutonium poisoning officially.
Weapons grade uranium has a risk of zero of carving hole sin your body, unless you happen to set it off, then you have MUCH larger problems to worry about then... Holes being carved in your body, more like holes being carved in your side of the planet. WGU's radiation is mostly alpha particles which won't even penetrate your skin, let alone get to living tissue.
Actually in Texas (and a few other palces, but I live in Texas) putting a fence around a piece of property and saying it is yours does make it yours, after 7 years.
When they develop the hardware that has all of that enabled it does not cost an insane amount over the cost of something without signal analyzation; when they could just use other security measures, or multiple security measures which are cheaper.
Albeit the military and security conscious would still buy it.
Oh I agree, my cynicism is more towards the lawyers who get the real payoff in most of these cases.
Smart people, and I'm extreamly jealous of the ability they have to cash in big on class action suits. When the claimant tends to get a modicum of the settlement/judgement.
The consumer, in the end continues to get ripped off; if not by one side, the other.
Slashdot Mirror
So put them in the exemptions list....
Base three could also be tip, middle and base of the fingers.
A point to be argued: whether or not they intended to cause damage, or did it as collateral. But yea, you're right on that is what they did do.

Typo, and never caught it.

Would that happen to be Google Video?
I like that quote.

When you buy Alienware you buy the name, and the spiffy injection molded case.
The rest is a good solid markup of 30% or more.
"ASK ME ABOUT MY WIINER!"
Or not get caught next time.
Thankfully I haven't purchased from any of those companies directly, nor shall I in the near future.
That's the true punishment, when people stop paying to play the fool.

Always good to see lawyers making more money off class actions suits, and the rest of us getting a rebate.
Force 3 actually.
