1: Illegal combattants if a term which describes the people in Guantanamo quite well to me. POW doesn't apply because it's clearly defined in the Geneva & other accords & they don't fit & as I said earlier PP doesn't either. If the term IC doesn't have enough negative connotations to please you, then that's your problem.
What makes them illegal? Person must violate the law in order to become illegal somebody. What law they are violating and is it proven in court?
Why US is holding non-US citizens in custody
Of cause they are not POWs. US would never admit that. They would have to follow Geneva accords, if these people were POWs.
Cuba might not be the best side of world, but their opponent is not any better. I would like to see Cuba without communists, but I would like to see it without Gitmo too.

Cuba is only unique in that the destruction caused by communism is so apparent everywhere.
Got any other terms you use that you don't know the meaning to that you would like clarified?
How do you call people, who oppose some regime and are held in custody without trial or any respect to human rights by that regime? If Cuba frees political prisoners, will US do the same?
How do you call long term economical sanctions placed by "friendly" neighbor on country that tried to reduce influence of that neighbor on country's economy and politics?
If Cuba is the bad guy, then who is on other side?
Is that Microsoft Office blows OO.org away. Completely. Microsoft could go with ODF and still compete very well against OO.
It is very difficult to compete against free product. Microsoft Office can be better than OpenOffice, but OpenOffice is good enough to have big impact of lower Microsoft Office user base. People won't buy expensive product, when they can get compatible product that does most of the things that they want for free.
If Microsoft Office and OpenOffice are compatible, people will buy Office only when they really need it and not when they are forced to do that due to format incompatibilities between two products.
It is closer to "PHP will do exactly the same in version 6". PHP4 and PHP5 are not totally backwards incompatible. Same code can run in both versions, if you are not using complex classes or objects. Both Python3 and PHP6 are breaking backwards compatibility in their implementations of Unicode support.
In Russia you always fight people that are not in your weight category.
In Russia you are the bully.
Estonia is not fighting Soviet Russia. It is fighting imperial ambitions of Russian Federation. These ambitions are continuously fueled in Russian media. How many jokes Russians have about conflicts with Georgia or Estonia? If you know Russian, find Zadornov new year's show for 2008. Russians occupied independent countries for more than half of century and expect people of those countries to like them.

The following extra packages will be installed:
binutils binutils-dev cpp cpp-4.1 cpp-4.2 gcc...
Fix your apt setup. If installation of kde program causes massive upgrade of all packages, you have older distribution version and use 'stable' sources instead of 'sarge', 'feisty' or 'dapper'. Or you have mixed official sources with third party.
I did try Linux as my desktop, and it wasn't up to par, which is why I'm back on Windows.
I did try Windows as my desktop and it wasn't up to par. No developer's tools, no ssh, no image editor, no Emacs. lots of stuff must be downloaded from third party servers. Lots of stuff costs additional money and "free" versions provide only limited set of features. That's why I will stay with Linux.
I've seen one 'Deluge' pear downloading data seeded by me. This program does not provide information about available torrent data and can be used only for leeching. It does not share downloaded files with others.
Our schools are supposed to teach discipline, which most people think means following the rules.
Middle Ages called. They want their teaching method back. USA is democracy. Right? Schools are supposed to educate people to think and not to obey. If you want "healthy working class", put those kids in military camps.

Are you sure that it is not caused by US embargo?
