Maple always installs its own Java libraries and uses that by default rather than the default Java unless you specify otherwise, so I would not expect Java runtime/library conflicts to be a problem. At least this is true on Windows..., not sure about Linux.
CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida (Reuters) - A glitch in a computer dating system may delay the next space shuttle launch because it erroneously matched the flight director with a sumo wrestling transvestite into S&M. Before the flight director could flee from the encounter, he suffered multiple bruises and contusions that placed him in the hospital. Surgeons are unsure when the flight director will recover, and plans are underway to train a replacement.
If you wish to show your dissatisfaction with all candidates, it is far more effective to be a registered voter (any party) and to cast a blank ballot than to not register to vote at all. Not registering is interpreted as laziness or disinterest, but that is not the case for a person who takes the trouble to register, obtain a ballot, and then deposit their ballot into the ballot box having voted for no one at all.
When you choose the Google download option, you download a tiny file with the extension GVP. If you then download Google's offline video player and open the GVP file with it, the Google video player will begin to download and display the actual data file which has an extension of GVI and is much larger. Presumably a GVI file is Google's own proprietary video format used to prevent conversion to an open format, although I suspect that eventually GVI will be cracked and format converters will be available at some point, but for now to the best of my knowledge the only video player that will play GVI files is Google's own video player.
You do however pay an indirect tax to watch TV. The government gets it's cut from the cable companies and distributors who charge you more because of the taxes.
When I was in high school, and even grade school for that matter, most of us kids either had our own firearms or had easy access to them at home and knew how to use them safely. Most of my friends and I attended an NRA Hunter Safety training course at age 10 or 12. An adult always accompanied us until they felt we (my circle of friends) were responsible enough to go hunting on our own without adult supervision. Admittedly it was a rural farming area where hunting Jackrabbits (for example) was encouraged by the local farmers because of the crop damage caused by Jackrabbits, but back then a group of kids walking around with rifles, shotguns, and handguns was a non-event. Nowadays we would have been called "a gang of armed juvenile terrorists" or some such BS.
As I recall, there were no school shootings at all back then (circa 1958).
In California the state Highway Patrol will serve the papers for a small fee. As I recall, thirty years ago it was $15 to have the CHP serve the papers when I sued a dishonest landlord whose security deposit refund check bounced. Having a cop serve the court papers gave me a lot of satisfaction in itself, apart from the fact that I won the case and recovered my security deposit. Small claims court is surprisingly easy to file a claim in, and in my experience the judge is actually interested in fairness but you do need evidence of wrongdoing (in my case, the landlord's bounced check was sufficient).
Surprisingly, tinfoil isn't thick enough to suppress cell phone signals (at least for incoming calls). I tried wrapping my Treo 650 entirely in tinfoil and then I dialed it's number from another telephone, and the Treo rang. I did eventually locate a metal box with walls thick enough to suppress incoming (and presumably outgoing) telephone calls however.
Well said. Not to mention the fact that in addition to all the other BS, churches expect people to tithe 10% of their incomes. Except for a couple of times when I was a kid and watched some of the local holy rollers just for laughs (yes, I have witnessed people writhing around on the floor and "speaking in tongues" as it's called), the only time I went to the a church more than once was at a Unitarian church and I was curious to find out exactly what it is that the Unitarians believe and don't believe, but on my third visit the pastor/preacher/whatever hit me up for 10% of my income. I never did figure out what the Unitarians do/don't believe.;-)
You've been listening to too much USA propaganda. I don't know where you get the idea that Chavez is a dictator. He was democratically elected, and reinstated the Venezeulan Congress and Judicial System as soon as he was restored by the people as the properly elected President of Venezeula. He may be a socialist, but he is an *elected* socialist.
the coup almost set Venezuela on a road to decency
By installing Pedro Carmona as dictator who then immediately dissolved the Venezuelan Congress and the Supreme Court, leaving no checks and balances against Carmona's new dictatorial powers???

With the excessive overcrowding of China, do you suppose the Chinese might like to purchase some extra real estate with all those US/China trade deficit dollars? How about cheap homes here in the USA whenever the housing market collapse really takes hold and foreclosures become commonplace? I have no objection to having Chinese neighbors, but wonder where those who are displaced will live?
The government needs the power to declare martial law in order to keep the angry mobs in check when the US Dollar tanks and widespread repossession of homes (among other things) becomes commonplace.

Get off your lazy ass and get informed on the issues and then VOTE!

Nope. Especially after they fired the first judge because of his impartiality.

And how is it that there were -16000 (that's a NEGATIVE number) votes cast for Al Gore in one of the Florida precincts?
Yes indeed, "Christian rock" is practically flooding the torrent swarms and P2P traffic so badly that it's hard to find porn anymore. :-|

Yes, it's quite a struggle.
