A high explosive is one where the decomposition travels through the explosive faster than sound ensuring (practicaly) all the explosive is reacted before it blows itself apart. Charcoal soaked in LOX is a decent high explosive.
Liquid oxegen is not normaly used in welding or medicine unless you want to freeze your patients. Oxegen will not become liquid at room temperature no matter how much you compress it. It has to be kept rather cold and will give you all sorts of handling problems. You end up putting foam insulation on your fuel tanks to keep them cold and you know what that leads to.
I used to work in a large chemical plant (16 square miles of germany) and I got the internal bus (internal to the plant, not to me) every morning opposite the liquid air plant, all chaps dressed in silver suits and spooky mist effects when they filled the lorries.
Perhaps he thought that he may have the legal right to access his own property in any way he choose rather than be dictated to by some studio the other side of the world. How naive these kids can be.
A few replies say not to worry about shielding which is true but only as long as you slap a few nice caps on the MoBo end of the cable to buffer the spike when your fridge/AirCon/Electric Drill switches on.
As for the big volts drop, cutting the feedback track in the PSU and leading back from the MoBo sounds like the best solution but I would certainly think about shielding this return as it is gonna be very low current and happy to pick up all sorts of interference and this is not a place to add a cap. Switch mode PSUs can do some strange and destructive oscillations.
I use ABN-AMRO in the Netherlands with Mozilla and Konqueror. The sign up did not work but I gave them a call they s-mailed me the papers to sign. A few days later I got the token to login. The banking side runs perfectly under and standards compliant browser I have yet tried.
Ì had a SCO unix server (Dual 75Mhz 486!!) under my command at one site and after a little upgrading of the serial card (more dumb ttys) the thing refused to come back up. This was the accounting system and the beancounters were collecting around the locked door getting exciteable while the IT manager and I sweated over the issue. As it sounded like the (4) disks were not spinning up properly I pulled the power lead on one, the boss powered up and a second or two later I plugged the drive back in. Appart from the big sparks it worked fine and the system came up a treat. We replaced the thing with a glorious pentium 100 with external disk box and duel PSUs shortly afterwards.

Great idea, lets ban those evil file sharing programs like Novell, Samba, NT servers (OK lets really ban this one:), NFS etc. Damn employees sharing files with each other all the time.
Paul Shryock, director of information services at Buckeye CableSystem, estimated the loss from the illegal use of the bandwidth at $250,000. "Some were using a little bit, and others were using a lot," he said.
I think you'll find on [video]tape it is done by feeding the tape past an erase head that has a fairly high frequency alternating field. This is also done for recording to remove ghosts of the previous image before writing the new.
Until 1962 it was thought that Mercury's "day" was the same length as its "year" so as to keep that same face to the Sun much as the Moon does to the Earth. But this was shown to be false in 1965 by doppler radar observations. It is now known that Mercury rotates three times in two of its years. Mercury is the only body in the solar system known to have an orbital/rotational resonance with a ratio other than 1:1 (though many have no resonances at all).

Sorry, I think you are thinking of mercury which has a day side and a night side. The moon keeps one face pointed at the Earth. The 'dark side' of the moon is a bit of a misnomer, it is just the side we never get to see (from Earth at least).
Interestingly enough mercury has one side pointed to the sun all the time for the same reason the moon has one side pointed to earth. As they are both imperfect spheres, in free fall around a much heavier body they tend to end up fat end down. So we get to stare at the moons big butt:)
The plus you do get is that you only need to line up your transmitters once and not track them from horizon to horizon every lunar day.
I am not sure about this proof of safety. Rather a small sample of one. What was he doing at the time ? Was he working in a high stress job ? Driving a land train accross Australia ?
I know in the UK a couple of years ago a student doctor died and that was attributed to sleep deprivation. I can not find that story but:

I could have sworn that was the title. Simple mis reads often prove more interesting than the story :)
And suffer this righteous slashdotting. What a weapon of mas destruction we wield.
Damn, what is the net coming to when I can't even login to saddams email.
BTW, chem & bio can not be weapons of mass destruction, mass is conserved in both, only nuke is mass destruction.

Hardly worth the effort, I have no doubt that supply far exceeds demand

Actually its all there in the EULA along with your first born to his Billness.
After M$ finish lobbying it will be a legal requirement too

I know in the UK a couple of years ago a student doctor died and that was attributed to sleep deprivation. I can not find that story but:
doctors deprived of sleep make bad calls
new mums like drunk driver from lack of sleep
junior doctors like drunks
Search on the bbc news site for sleep, death, doctor and you will find plenty of horror stories.
