And on the opposite end of the spectrum, Russian is a swear-word rich language with the largest swear vocabulary of any language that I know of. Whereas English has its seven dirty words, Russian has entire dictionaries devoted to explaining all the swear words and phrases.
Did you even read your own citation? The Soviet copyrights did not cover performances of classical music which did not themselves carry a copyright. This includes all of the classical music under discussion here.
I thought there was an extensive library of high-quality copyright-free classical music recorded by Soviet, Eastern-bloc, and Chinese orchestras prior to 1989. None of those countries were Berne Convention signatories at the time and no copyright was ever claimed nor desired since they were "the people's" orchestras performing for the people. If I remember correctly, Muzak used to use Czech orchestral performances as they were copyright-free in the 70s and 80s. Why not use those recordings?
The solution is simple -- just tax each trade say one dollar per trade. It's not enough to bother the legitimate trades as all of them are for substantially more than a dollar each, usually thousands of dollars each. This would prohibit using the trading system to make a DOS attack on a competitor. Unless you are prepared to pay the tax.
No need to start one -- it already exists. Look up "Janism" and their Digambara monks. Senior monks wear no clothes and go around nude. "Digambara" means "clad in the sky" where the sky is your clothing. It's an old religion and is recognized as such by practically every official entity.
120. Scope of exclusive rights in architectural works
(a) Pictorial Representations Permitted. — The copyright in an architectural work that has been constructed does not include the right to prevent the making, distributing, or public display of pictures, paintings, photographs, or other pictorial representations of the work, if the building in which the work is embodied is located in or ordinarily visible from a public place.

Then why didn't they stop at the NK/SK border? By continuing the invasion of the south all the way to Pusan, you kind of lose that argument because under that standard the US could have continued past the Kuwaiti border to invade Iraq back during the first Gulf War after expelling the Iraqi troops from Kuwait following Kuwait's request for assistance.
What does President Obama expect Interpol to do that would require this immunity? What are they expected to do with this immunity that they could not do without it? Why make this change?
The direction it reverses is based on how you turn around to see the image. George Gamow explained this. Rotate a book around the vertical axis (yaw) and the text is correct top-to-bottom but reversed right-to-left. Rotate it around the horizontal axis (pitch) and the text is correct left-to-right but reversed bottom-to-top. This applies to how the observer turns around to see his/her image as well -- either by rotating around on your feet or by flipping over and standing on your head.
Do you never drive at night? At night it's impossible to determine the position of the lit light compared to the unlit lights unless there's a streetlight or other artificial light nearby to illuminate them.
And each American produces almost 8 times the GNP of their Chinese counterpart. So by that standard, each Chinese produces about TWICE the CO2 per unit of economic output as his American counterpart. China needs to clean up its act.
What you are missing is that not every download is a lost sale. People who download would probably not have bought it in the first place -- they would have bought a used copy, borrowed from a friend or roommate, or checked it out from a library. This is the fundamental fact that RIAA/MPAA don't understand either. Think of it as free advertising. After checking out a book from a library, if I've found it really useful I've then gone on and purchased a copy. I've even replaced a used book with a new book when a new edition came out because it was quite good. I never would have bought it in the first place had there not been a cheaper option available. This goes for downloads as well.
The National Archives has versions up of all the Clinton White House pages. Here's one [nara.gov]. I'm sure they'll get around to doing the same for Bush eventually.
Whatever happened to the idea that the Internet routes around damage? I can no longer connect to vesti.ru because the route from my ISP to Moscow goes through Telia's routers and they no longer peer with Russia either through design, damage, or poor maintenance. Shouldn't the packets get rerouted if a particular link is down?
Yeah! This totally f*cks my schedule. One second totally ruins New Years for me.
Only if you celebrate New Year's at 23:59 GMT. All other time zones will have New Year's take place exactly on schedule to the second including Times Square in New York.
The theory of ANTHROPOGENIC global warming is different from the fact of global warming. It's as if there was a theory that the Bubonic Plague was caused by demonic possession and I claim that demonic possession as a cause of the plague is a hoax and then you jump in and say that the plague is REAL and cannot be argued about. Do you not understand the meaning of "anthropogenic"?

Because it's not.
Judging by that story learning Morse code should be a requirement to purchase boat not to operate a radio.

The Chinese intervened upon NK's request.

Are surgeons (who have to wear scrubs) and airline pilots (who have to wear uniforms) also close to wearing a fast food uniform in your view?

"Heaps of evidence" pointing towards global warming - OK. "Heaps of evidence" pointing towards anthropogenesis as a cause - not so much.

Could be the biggest one of all. That or alchemy (dead) and astrology (still alive).
Unfortunately, all those deductions you are using are illegal.
