Actually, the problem that I have with this is that no one has show impairment of sexual function in adults that were circumcised as infants. The first problem is that infants don't have sex, one should hope, so kinda hard to get good self-reported comparison data on this from the source, so to speak. But lets try to get something anyway. A search on PubMed gives some hits, here's a couple of choice quotes from summaries (I don't have access to full articles right now):
"A survey of the 35 female and 42 gay sexual partners of circumcised and genitally intact men, and a separate survey of 53 circumcised and 30 genitally intact men themselves, indicated that circumcised men experienced significantly reduced sexual sensation along with associated long-lasting negative emotional consequences."; Adverse sexual and psychological effects of male infant circumcision.

"We found no relationship between childhood circumcision age and overall sexual function; however some specific domains of sexual function (i.e. avoidance and communication) seemed to be affected by the age at circumcision procedure in this cohort of sexually active males. In addition, prevalence of sexual dysfunction was higher, with premature ejaculation being the most common dysfunction in the survey. We concluded that childhood circumcision age might affect some domains of male sexual function in adulthood, but not the overall function."; Effects of childhood circumcision age on adult male sexual functions.

People in the US seem to be having plenty of sex, and seem to be happy with it. Right, this is the point where you might hear arguments like "you don't know what you're missing", not to mention that "seem to be happy with it" is a pretty vague statement.
Also, you say in a post further down:
All that matters is: does infant circumcision hurt a child physically or emotionally in any lasting way? There does not seem to be anything showing that it does. Try these for starters:
Excecutive summary: neonatal circumcision hurts the kids.
And finally, although circumcised men have lower risk for some infections and penile cancer, WHO states that "some
of these conditions are rare while others are uncommon or treatable, and routine neonatal circumcision is
not currently recommended on medical grounds". Promoting circumcision is being considered by the WHO as a way of reducing the risk of HIV infections in countries in a particularly dire state, like South Africa. But again, it only reduces the risk, and does not in any way replace the use of condoms. Also, studies are still ongoing on this.
Hitler was the "Man of the Year" in 1938, and Stalin in 1939. Those weren't accolades either. In those days at least, "Man of the year" != "good person". Rather, it meant "influential person of the year, primarily men".
Your pencil is in precisely the same position as any other object, be it planet or moon: in a gravity well. Thus, the Earth's gravity well causes the pencil to roll "down" the slope of curved space, and the gravity well of the pencil in turn causes the Earth to roll towards the pencil, although only imperceptibly. Same thing with things out in space, except things in orbit have enough speed to move along and around the curvature of the well, instead of just bumbling down into the center.
I wonder how many papers/emails/reports/whatever have been written where a d/r reversal typo has made its way to the final draft. At least a few, it would seem.
Space isn't even a particle and doesn't have mass, so why should it curve?
I wonder, does gravity affect space or merely everything in that space? Could we tell the difference? Yes we can detect the difference: light curves in a gravity well. Also you seem to be confused about curving space. Mass causes space to curve, lots of mass, lots of curvature. The effect of this curving is what we call gravity.
In that case anyone can eavesdrop and subsequently move all your money away. One time passwords, or possibly generated passwords is the only way to go.
A very good point, but instead of driving a mass into it which would be a bitch to do, use a net: a weight that splits into four a number of seconds before impact, and string a fairly strong but light net between them. The net catches the entire satellite, the weights impart enough total force (slowly, not with a rough jerk) to cause the satellite to slowly drop, probably bending all appendages to scrap in the process. No debris results. As long as things stay in one piece, it should be easy to calculate where the sat will drop.
Of course, the velocities involved are high, so the net can't be just any old fishnet, but perhaps a large number of nets in succession. As long as the satellite touches the net taking it with it, long lines on the weights would start to reel out, slowly getting dragged along with the sat, thus slowing it down just enough to make it start falling predictably.
The summary appears to be faulty. While I haven't even heard about this before, I can also safely say that my ISP (TeliaSonera) doesn't appear to block anything from the list, no matter if they're marked green, orange or red. So who's blocking them then? Smaller ISPs?
Indeed. So is this the sort of thing these accelerators do? Are they limited to simple objects in 3D space? Are they just for eye candy or can they help with rigid body physics? I would assume they're for eye candy, though I don't know for sure, because I've never heard of anyone exploiting a generic physics engine's capabilities for e.g. a flight simulator.
What? So if the world is suitably segmented, with each segment unlikely to affect another, that's a perfect situation for parallel processing! Also, accelerating one box is trivial but 3000 boxes is not, like say, a brick wall falling down.
Not to mention a GUI isn't useful either, since everything can be done on the command line anyway. In fact, all you need is a bank of LEDs to indicate the state of the registers!
I'm of the opinion that the "inverted Y axis" is an anomaly due to flight sims and related games, as you say. I say anomaly, because I used inverted axis myself. Until I stopped playing so much, and *poof!* I couldn't play with inverted on anymore.
Now I fly flight sims as normal (inverted), but play FPS's non-inverted. I think non-inverted makes more sense for aiming quickly, if there's crosshairs in the middle of the screen, because surely it's easier to have your brain think of it as a cursor that works like any other cursor.
Blind faith and support is scary in all its shapes.
So you're basically saying that if people in group A are as passionate as people in group B, the merits of their ideas must be similar. If people in group A are as passionate as people in group B, their merits as supporters are probably similar.
Easier: return unused antibiotics to the pharmacy. And also, unused antibiotics should be an exception. Either you take all the medicine as prescribed, or you have a problem with the medicine, and the doctor says you can stop. Patients don't get to decide when they've recovered, especially with antibiotics.
Judging by how the rig bounces about when spinning at high speed, I don't blame him for not pushing his luck. I agree though, as a layman, it looks like he has a more efficient motor.
Why not a sort of gradual compression redundancy, like a hologram? The more machines are on the network, the more details about the data in storage can be extracted.
Now, this would only work well for lossy compression like, say... images, but I'm sure that is the intention of the submitter. Incidentally, it may provide an incentive for the workers to keep their computers turned on, and even stay late after work.
You jest, but I wonder how much of this "unused" space is really unused? It's not just admins who have a few files of "random OTP data" or "misc dll's", ya know!
You can put it on the south side of the roof (for north hemispherians). Add a wind turbine or a few, and you've covered the majority of weather conditions.

So there. Was there anything unclear?
Hm, would this be a convenient path into learning LISP development, or would one stumble onto unreasonable obstacles for a beginner?
They're affected by curved space due to gravity.

Yes. In fact a lot of hosts and web site farms do that already (private IP costs extra), and we're still running out.
The trouble is, good people who get things done can be hard to come by.
I'd argue saying such things is slander, in fact, and you can thus be rightly sued.
