A simple manual valve wheel outside the secure area will take care of this, with far fewer potential fail points.
Doesn't look as cool as a couple of guys in a room with a bunch of computers (running rooted XP) and video monitors. Valves don't sex up a Power Point presentation. Control rooms do.
Find some dirt on the BSA and chase them with it. You already have a false accusation letter which will cost you money to deal with maybe you could hound them for those costs until you find something bigger to take them on with. And remember, discovery is your friend, use it on anything and everything, it'll make them squirm.
Righto! A small businessman should take the time out of his presumably busy day to befriend LulzSec and / or brush up on hacking techniques, burrow into the BSA servers and find all manner of incriminating emails and the 100 pirated copies of Word Perfect 5.1. Or hire a private investigator to follow the BSA executives and get compromising pictures of them purchasing Girl Scout Cookies. Or better yet, plant 10 kilos of pure cocaine in the CEO's executive washroom.
That I completely agree and that ripping a DVD onto my hard drive constitutes creating that is not the same as the original movie. The actual information contained in the frames of video is completely irrelevant as it is isolated from the optical media at that point. I should be able to patent/copyright DVD rips, then distribute them according to my license,
And a twisted misunderstanding of copyrights has what all to do with patents? For the thousandth time patents != copyrights.
A 1 TB drive in my laptop and it is wonderful. I have a 512 GB SSD and a 1 TB HN-N101 Samsung. Don't know where TFA got the idea that this is the first 1 TB 2.5 inch drive, this particular Samsung has been around at least a couple of months. Anyway, having that large a drive allows me to 1) have a hot backup on the machine - if the SSD dies, I can option boot into the other drive and off I go and 2) have tons of storage for video and digital images. A terabyte just doesn't go too far these days if you do graphics / video.
How much have the various wars and other bits of support in the Middle East cost us over the years? How interested would we be in the Middle East otherwise?
If any LOTR character is a good match for the Tea Party, I would have to go with Tom Bombadil. Completely fucking nuts, make absolutely no sense, have an annoying tendency to speak in song, and (hopefully) forgotten by the end of the first book.

What are you basing this on? In the 19th century the USA wasn't a super power and wasn't doing all that well with pretty much slave labor camps otherwise known as textile mills just to get started.
It appears that roman_mir's idea of utopia is based on the few robber barons of the 19th (and early 20th) century who managed to amass great fortunes by running rampant over man and beast. It's a narrow reading of a small portion of history.
The reason USA became the wealthiest country in the world in 19 century was capitalist free market and industrialization, which only became possible because the US was so free to do business in because the government was so limited, so small and so insignificant.
My, you are persistent. No, the reason that the US became the wealthiest country in the world is that it was able to harness enormous amounts of cheap resources without much interference by neighboring countries nor effective resistance by the native populations. The resources of the Western US (and various marine bodies) untapped (except by the locals who were rather quickly marginalized).
This behavior also had a number of deleterious effects - raping of resources, the environment (would you want to live in a 19th century urban environment?) and impressive social inequities.
So, government did step in and attempt to mitigate the hellbent robber baron / beggar they neighbor system. It was partially successful. Yes, we have problems that stem from going the other way - to much regulation, too much governmental control. But your slavish devotion to an anachronistic and time limited system (not much of the West available for plunder at bargain prices) suggests you really haven't looked at some of the finer points in American history.
Could be. It's obviously very, very complicated. And you're correct - the specific areas of motor cortex (again, for example) are necessary but not entirely sufficient for complex motor skills.
We're getting there in determining how the brain is wired. Whether any one human can actually understand it is certainly up for debate.
the idea of there being specialized areas of the brain is coming into disrepute,
No. There clearly are areas of specialized cortex, the visual cortex being one. That doesn't mean that other parts of the brain aren't involved in visual processing (for example). The trivial example of this is the homunculus. If you damage a particular area in the motor or sensory cortex, you will see the effects of that damage in very specific regions of the body.
Size of a particular region isn't necessarily correlated with the level or degree of function and lots of other things happen in various regions of the brain.[Long complex discussion on how the brain works. Lots of handwaving.]
I'm not sure where you picked up that concept, but it's not correct, unless I'm not understanding what you meant to say.
Do they have transparent copper wires and circuit boards now as well? Because without them, I'm really not seeing the point of having a transparent battery.
Steve Jobs is obviously behind this. Think it's hard to replace the battery in a iPhone or MacBook now? Wait until you can't see it!
I'm not sure who you are desiring to shoot, unless it's "Kill them all and let god sort it out". However, this is total standard operating procedure for an insurance company. Faced with a big loss you take some of your already paid for legal staff and obfuscate for a while, hoping to get the whole thing knocked off or, much more likely, come up with a mutually disagreeable solution of some lesser value.
These are not the higher principles you are looking for....

What could possibly go wrong?
From those images, it really looks like propulsion is via a rubber-band powered propeller. The future of flight!
Where can I get software to defeat it? Or a clear enough description that would allow me to write that software?
According to a link in the TFA (directly from KissMetrics), just use AdBlock Plus.
Seems to take a bit of wind out of the summary's sails.

That's iRonic.

Apple TV is only $99. It's not android, but you can hack at it anyway if you're so inclined.

Not really. That was pretty non specific.
And, I might add, a most excellent reply, worthy of our best politicians or economists. But not especially useful.

Shouldn't the article say more than the summary?
Since no one reads either one, why should it?

So, apparently sex is good for your brain.
That would explain a lot of what happens around here.

Actually, I was just being amusing / snarky. But I like the transparent iPhone. Completely impractical but fun.
Do they have transparent copper wires and circuit boards now as well? Because without them, I'm really not seeing the point of having a transparent battery.
Steve Jobs is obviously behind this. Think it's hard to replace the battery in a iPhone or MacBook now? Wait until you can't see it!
So you basically need controls that respond to your voice.
"No! you don't turn left here, you turn right over there! No, other right!"
Do. Not. Want.
One should not attribute to malfeasance what can adequately explained by stupidity. Although, I have to agree, Sony is really pushing it here.

Out of curiosity, does it involve ocean view property in Nebraska?
