Unfortunately many of those type of sites are located in Eastern European/other countries with relatively lax law enforcement which makes it hard to go after the domain owners.
I think the subsequent sale issue is referring to the idea that liability would be extended to "users" of the product (for example, Microsoft claiming patents on areas of Linux and suing not just developers but also companies that use the software). The issue between Intel and LG involved patented chips that had been *legally* licensed and sold to one company who then sold them to another company. LG wanted to collect revenue from the second buyers but was smacked down since they had already been paid for and therefore could no longer be controlled by LG. This case deals with patent infringement (i.e, products that were never licensed under a patent and if, using these as an example, LG could sue a PC maker for using patented chips made by an unlicensed manufacturer or whether the liability only extended to those doing the actual manufacturing of the patented items (chips).
The key is the photographer was not publishing it for commercial purposes; putting the photo up on Flickr was not illegal since it was for personal use/browsing, but when it was used in the ad became illegal. The original photog would only have been "publishing" it in the context of this suit if he had, for example, used it to promote "Joe's Photography Service" or some other type of advertising/endorsement situation.
IANAL but I believe the model release only is needed for commercial stuff - while the news photographers that have taken pictures of events that I was at do take down names, etc for captions if necessary but they do not need release forms; in this case the counselor seemed to be taking the pictures for personal use (posting them to share with the people after the activity, etc). which does not need any kind of release otherwise all the online "looky at my vacation photo" sites would be in deep problems since they would need releases each time you uploaded pictures.
IANAL but the situation may be similar to people getting gypped by the general contractors on their house: you pay the GC to redo a kitchen, say, and they skip town and fail to pay the plumber for example. The plumber can still get a lien on your property since he is entitled to compensation and worked on your property. The hosting companies' lawyers would need to check this out very thoroughly for obvious reasons since keeping somebody elses stuff is a big deal.
I think the letters are usually sent by the RIAA to a certain IP address, the college then looks up the student in the IT records and forwards the letter to them. If KU does not forward these letters then RIAA will have to file a subpoena/DMCA/etc to get the students ID info from the university.
Even if the price was identical or slightly less than lower grades, the line of questioning would go something like "aren't you aware that premium gas always costs more than other grades?" "Did you see any promotional materials indicating a special?" "Did you confirm the price with any of the staff despite noticing the lower than usual price?"
Not necessarily, I have been to several gas stations at which for whatever reason mid-grade/plus was the same as or slightly less than regular.
The DOD does not mind the Coast Guard's DGPS since it is used for boaters in the USA. The reason for downgrading GPS has more to do with stopping other countries from using GPS-guided weapons in conflicts in other countries (where there is no DGPS); I'm sure in a Red Dawn type scenario the stateside DGPS beacons could be turned off.
The purpose of the "artificial personhood" of a corporation is to enable shareholders to invest and limit their losses to the amount they have invested; if there was no artificial personhood then shareholders could be personally liable for the debts of a corporation; would you want to get a bill every time one of UPS's trucks got into an accident?
P2P is not a tool, it is only a piracy weapon. The only reason to have P2P is to pirate with it. Yes, a tiny minority of people use P2P to download legal stuff, sometimes even Linux ISOs, but it's still an illegal network. If you want a P2P app that only downloads files with centrally approved hashes, be my guest; but, don't pretend that people are only downloading backups of CDs/DVDs they own. You're just insulting the intelligence of your audience. Also, don't wrap yourself in the 1st Amendment on this issue: you just look stubborn and immature. When freedom of speech was put in the constitution, the fastest communications technology was the printing press. The government certainly can and must regulate the sophisticated communications technology available today.
The founding fathers were not omniscient geniuses, and the document is not carved in stone. If the constitution were the same today as it was when the 2nd Amendment was added, blacks would be slaves and anyone who isn't a white male landowner wouldn't be allowed to vote.
I, like a significant percentage of my fellow citizens, do not support Bush, his administration, nor the neo-con obsession with war-as-a-solution-to-everything.
You sound like a bigot and I resent your smug stereotyping of Americans.

I know where Estonia is.
I do support Bush, his administration, and the war effort.

1. While the lethal force standard applies to police, they may also use deadly force in response to acts designed to disable them; since there have been cases when criminals took a police officer's gun and used it against them/others, police are trained to guard their weapons, so someone using pepper spray/tasers/etc. would constitute a threat since it would render the officer vulnerable to his/her weapon being stolen.
2. Officer involved shootings usually result in the officer going to a desk job/off duty for two reasons: if the incident was traumatic (a hostage situation, etc.) to give them time to psychologically recover, and also their service weapon is needed for evidence in the investigation of the shooting, so they cannot patrol unarmed. When the shooting is confirmed to be justified, the officer's weapon can then be returned and them put back on duty.
In the US, generally if someone dies in the course of you committing a felony (for example you crash a car through a bank wall to steal cash and accidentally hit someone on the other side) you can be charged with murder even if the incident would be manslaughter otherwise(non-premeditated).
While a quieter computer won't hurt anything, the submitter is referring to electrical/RF noise not acoustic noise (ie a TEMPESTed computer would probably be ideal).
Even with the data backed up, the major loss will be their equipment - this is not a computer lab, rather it is a hardware fabrication lab with likely millions of dollars worth of semiconductor and optical processing equipment, clean rooms, etc. - research samples taking months to grow may have been lost as well.
Maybe because how the world came about has no relation to 80% of modern science (chem, physics, and molecular/cellular level bio)? While there is definately disagreement in the area of ID, we can at least teach the facts everyone agrees on (I haven't heard many religious challenges to F=ma, Maxwell's equations, Bohr's model of the atom, or microbiology recently).
*cough* except for the fact that the spark from your spark plugs is contained inside a combustion chamber, which is normally at least 5 or 10cm of alloy steel. That amount of steel can quite easily shield X-rays 100 times as strong.
*cough* except for the fact that nuclear fuel and waste are contained inside a containment vessel, which is normally at least 10-20cm of alloy steel and several feet of concrete. That amount of steel can quite easily shield X-rays 100 times as strong.

Methanol can also invert light receptors - everything goes dark when you go blind after drinking it.

Ah, I see. This was in central Illinois so the same was probably true.

No,he's saying that women are donating eggs, not ovaries, which are the organs that produce eggs and would need to be surgically removed.
