He seemed to have a need to keep track of the people tracking him, and he certainly got sloppy with tor.
You know, if the police were after you, and you had a police band scanner, or some other way to see what the police were doing in their efforts to track you down, I think you wouldn't be able to resist the temptation to use it. A lot.
An Egyptian newspaper ran his obituary a while back. I don't know how credible the newspaper is though.
And Benazir Bhutto, while being interviewed on the BBC by Sir David Frost (yeah, that Frost. Of the Frost v Nixon fame) mentioned in passing that Bin Laden was dead. (This was Nov 2nd, 2007, shortly before she was killed by the way.)
Frost didn't say anything, didn't even acknowledge it (which might lead some to believe he already knew this) and the interview carried on as normal.
Later, the BBC transcript of the interview left out the references to Bin Ladens death.
When numerous complaints were sent to the BBC from viewers who saw the interview live, the BBC didn't deny that the section had been edited from the interview. They simply claimed there was nothing nefarious about it, and that interviews were frequently trimmed for length. They didn't comment at all, about the Bin Laden aspect of it.
True story. Video is online, google has multiple copies, etc...
The wild yeast, as you call it, is actually very region specific. Even amongst all the wild yeast variations (and there are many) the flavours can change quite a bit from area to area.
In any case, there's more than enough beers to suit every palate, even those who claim they don't like beer, can usually find one here that they enjoy.
I've been to the Greenwich Observatory planetarium. And it's rubbish, to be honest. Aimed at kids who know nothing about anything.
The rest of the Observatory, including the museum, is much better. Plus, Greenwich is a lovely town to spend the day in, and you can get a boat ride back up to Thames towards Westminister very cheap.
Also, Greenwich is the only place where you can walk under the Thames. And that's pretty cool.
I think you'd find that the translation of 4kb of info from a page in an alien encyclopaedia, would be a far bigger issue than either the bandwidth or the 200 year lag.
While Katarina was ongoing, there were plenty of independent news outlets running video footage of professionals warning what would happen. It made the Bush mantra of "No one could have predicted..." out to be just as much of a joke as the "No one could have predicted..." 9-11 version. (And then the Aug 6th PDB title was released.)
There are plenty of people working on ITER who do agree. But they figure that it's a worthy endeavor without necessarily being a commercially viable final product. (ie They think we'll learn a lot from doing it.)
Plus, it's funded by the EU and they're just throwing money it at with very little expectation of anything in return.
I will then use multiple computers/servers spread around the globe to pirate every fucking thing I can get my grubby ex-consumer neo-pirate hands on, even if it means going to jail.
The way things are going, you'll get less jail time if you just shoot some of them dead.
Not that I'm advocating piracy or murder... I'm just saying, if you're going to go to jail anyway, you might as well do us all a favour.
Missing Option : US denies it is invading countries to secure oil supplies, because they claim oil is not in short supply. Large segments of America, still watching Fox, believe that their country is bringing "freedom" to the smoking ruins of the Middle East. People who try to point out the facts, are dismissed as fags, pansies, commies, libruls, and repeatedly asked why they hate America and hate freedom. SUVs continue to sell.
"Who knows who they are or where they are. They don't suddenly become loyal readers of our content."
That says more about the laughable quality of the content.
I mean, I remember the first time I came across xkcd. I became a loyal reader. I remember the first time I came across PVP and Penny Arcade. Crooksandliars.com and aintitcoolnews.com Dailykos, theRegister, slashdot. etc...
Loyal readers will go where they find good content, worth reading.
Unfortunately for Fox News, that would mean that they could not quote anyone or use excerpts from books or speeches without prior approval. He'll find that he can't have it both ways.
He's one of the wealthiest men in the world. I think you'll find he can have it both ways, all ways, and any way he wants.
That's how governments and the courts work. They are subservient to wealth and power.
Are you new to this planet, or have you not been paying close attention?:)
Most people don't behave like there is death at all. Most people don't want to talk about death, don't want to hear about death, and don't even want to think about death. Many people "defy" death and live like they won't die.
That *may* be a purely American thing. In a country obsessed with youth, cosmetic surgery, etc... all symptoms of a refusal to accept death and growing old.
Years ago, when I lived in Ireland, my brothers American girlfriend was over visiting with the family. She seemed shocked and stunned by how frequently we mentioned death, dying, growing old, etc... and usually with a joke to go with it. (Not that the Irish are obsessed with death or anything.) In the years since then, I've travelled quite a bit. Of all the people I've met, the only ones who seem overly death-averse are the Americans.
Yet it hasn't happened here or Western Europe or most modern Asian countries. Why?
Because the enemies you keep hearing about, are neither as a numerous nor as powerful as your government would like you to believe.
It suits the agenda of those in power, to have a public who are so shit-scared about terrorists, that they will accept any indignity, any intrusion into their lives, any loss of freedom... just to make the terrorism fear go away.
But am I going to get arrested in the US for a non-crime that never happened??? ----- Or what about American nudist sites? http://www.nude2000.com/Family_Pageant_Activities.htm (nudity again). Is daddy going to get arrested because he took a photo of his underage daughter or son???
In the UK, especially in the pre-digial camera age, there were many cases where a parent had taken a photo or two of their newborn, or young child in the bath, or whatever. And the person developing the photos contacted the police. They felt it was better to err on the side of caution, and treat any nudity as potentially sexual.
It never made sense to me, because what paedophile would be dumb enough to drop his photos off at the local chemists for development?
Did the people who made Paranormal Activity on a $15,000 budget actually think it was realistic that they'd make $84,780,000 (and counting) back from it?
If you think the people who made P.A. have themselves made anything like 84 million dollars, then you sir, are crazy.
Neanderthals primary were in Europe and the middle east. The 2 likley canditates of current ethnicicities with possible Neanderthal DNA would be Arabs and Caucasians.
Suppose I give my password to a sibling. Can the account still be accessed? As an atheist, I would be amused if my brother updated a facebook entry maybe once a year on my birthday. "Still dead. Still no sign of god."

Bills aren't drafted in public and debated on the floor -- they are written behind closed doors by the Congressional leadership
No, they aren't written by the Congressional leadership. They merely oversee and approve what their staff write.

he educated lot needs to get some safeguards in place or 5 generations down the road, our children will be mindless sheeple.
I'm afraid that observation is about 6 generations too late.

to stop child pornography. Maybe it was to catch copyright infringes
Yes, we must stop the digital copying of child pornography, because it will lead to an explosion in child pornography production.
And we must stop the digital copying of Hollywood movies, because it will lead to the cessation of Hollywood movie production.
Wait ... what?

Cows that are fed grass (as opposed to grain), give milk that tastes far better than what you'll find in the American supermarket aisles.
Absolutely true. Any time I've been in the states, I've found that the milk I buy there is undrinkable.
Then there is the issue of converting fat to muscle
Pedantic as all hell, but this is a commonly held myth (even if you don't hold it yourself personally). You can't convert fat to muscle.

That would be big news, if some smart people had put forward the idea that water, at the molecular level, isn't wet.
(Which it isn't, by the way.)
Neanderthals primary were in Europe and the middle east. The 2 likley canditates of current ethnicicities with possible Neanderthal DNA would be Arabs and Caucasians.
Or the French.
I'm pretty sure Mossad agents can only be killed once as well.
They'd just make themselves exempt. Anyone could predict that. It's not like they haven't done it before. (The RIPA laws, see http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/08/11/ripa_iii_figures )
What you need to do is target their kids, spouses, partners or loved ones.
