Baseball star Rafael Palmeiro will not be prosecuted on perjury charges after lawmakers said Thursday there isn't enough evidence to prove he lied when he told Congress under oath that he had "never used steroids" six weeks before failing a steroid test.
Perjury is punishable by a fine and/or no more than five years in prison, making it a felony. The fine can be no more than $250,000 for an individual (except in some cases in which money is involved).
I just got that from reading those links, but still, I'm not a lawyer.
Here's the article's edit history: Lawrence E. Page - History; click the "last" link next to each edit to see what was changed. What edits were reverted by this so-called "GOOG patrol," besides vandalism like changing Stanford to "Crapford"?
First they steal their content from professional sites, making them go out of business.
What content has been stolen? Who has gone out of business because of Wikipedia?
California uses a system like this. Each polling place has a scanner. The voter bubbles in the ballot and puts it through the scanner, and it falls into the box below. At the end of the day, the machine prints out a receipt with the totals that is sent in along with the individual ballots. A copy of the receipt is posted on the door to the polling place (at least it was last year, I assume they still do that.)
It's made by Diebold but I don't know the exact name.
If they do include "Intelligent Design," the "designer" should be described as some outside force, and not "the creator" or "God" or whatever: just some abstract supernatural thing. Any more than that and it becomes religion ("the big man in the sky" did it, not just "something outside our realm or our understanding").
"But we are talking about terrorists here, not normal people like you and I."
They can arrest you or I as a "terrorist" just as easily. If people don't acknowledge that, then they assume that accusation = guilt and they say "But they're terrorists! They're not humans like us! You don't want people to die, do you?"

Wouldn't probing the leak just make it bigger?

Why is this modded flamebait?
My school district had a system like this.
Here's a table of what each county uses.d irectory.html

The Diebold Accuvote-OS is what I was talking about above (optical scanner): http://www.diebold.com/dieboldes/accuvote_os.htm
Each county does things differently... so, what I said probably is only true in one. sorry for the uh, misinformation.

What is it?

I agree with you entirely, though.
What's their reason for doing that?
Right, because demand for services never increases and population never increases. Demands on state revenue are unchanging.
How are committees inherently bad?

Doh, comma splice.
