They'll ship non-flammable compressed gas fine, but with restrictions on the pressure (maximum 180psi @ 55C) and size (maximum container volume of 1 litre), so you couldn't mail, say, a scuba tank. They'll also do flammable gasses under the same restrictions, but they'll only ship those via ground.
Yes, you can. It's quite easy to disable it. The thing that is not possible it to revert to the functionality of the firefox 2 address bar (And before someone charges in here with oldbar, that only replicates the appearance, not the functionality).
To disable it, simply set browser.urlbar.maxRichResults in about:config to 0. This completely disables URL autocompletion, so you have to either type the URL or use your bookmarks.
I believe it's more a general link between prevention/delay of onset of Alzheimer's and regular general cognitive activity. There was a study a few years ago showing a link between regularly playing a musical instrument or other mentally demanding activities had a significantly lower risk of dementia than those who didn't or did so less often.
I think you're missing the point of this. The purpose is to start it at an early stage before you'd ever deal with them and prevent any of that from occurring or at the very least, keep it at bay for a number of years.
Also, it's progress. It's generally necessary to figure out how to stop something before figuring out how to reverse something.
aside from the fact they're wailing about the "$900,000" they say they had to spend to secure the system, which should have been secured already. I mean, the computers at my high school had better security that than!
And what exact harm was actually caused, beyond making a bunch of idiots look like idiots?
I very much doubt they would have "No clue who is right". Critical reading of the law in question, relevant case law and the reasoning behind it, and the constitution, combined with a little critical thinking towards each.
It would undoubtedly have been significantly simpler prior to the widespread use of impenetrable legalese and unreasonably long laws.
Unless I'm mistaken, ground effect would not apply to lift via vectored thrust, as this thingy uses, only to aerodynamic lift via wings. It's essentially the same principle a VTOL jet uses, only on a different scale.
I have no problem with him not knowing what he's talking about.
I have a big problem with the fact that he doesn't know what he's talking about and he's writing laws about that subject, along with being on a major committee on the subject.
They REALLY should bring that back, Hell, all manufacturers should put that kind of thing in their cars. I can't think of a better way to make going for high mileage widely "cool". Like trying for the high score on an arcade game.
"Hey, guess what? I got 48MPG on my way to work!" "Oh yeah? Well I got 52MPG! Beat that!"
Just simply harnessing people's competitive drive (not to mention the desire to save money) could do more than all the hybrids in the world, though that would likely lead to people buying hybrids in a quest for ever higher mileage.
I get the same behavior with my practically brand-new (I just got it at the end of May) krzr. Gauge shows full 6/6 for about a week (i don't talk on it much), then it will drop to flat dead within hours.
Car manufacturers so the same thing with the gas gauge. the top half is more than the bottom half. If the gauge on my car is sitting at half, I'm down to 24 Litres out of a 60 Litre tank. Also, there's a gallon or two left when the needle is at E.
The truth of the matter is conversations originating overseas from known or suspected terrorist organizations to their contacts in the U.S. may be monitored.

theoretically, everyone is at least distantly related to everyone else on the planet, though you would need an utterly huge family tree and consanguinity table to determine the relationships.

I wouldn't say no reason. Long distance calls via skype could very well be cheaper than they would be with long-distance minute charges.
In the short term, it's all academic anyway. So far as I'm aware, there's no Bittorrent client available for either my iPhone or Blackberry anyway.
there already is, in a kinda-sorta manner.

Just because a contract says something doesn't mean it is legally valid.
oddball? This affects chain bootloading, which is used in practically every dual-boot windows/linux system I've seen.

You might try setting browser.urlbar.matchOnlyTyped in about:config to true. I believe that makes it do what you desire.

Got a NY times story on it http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C0DE6D7153BF937A15755C0A9659C8B63. study was in the New England Journal of Medicine in '03.
It's not too much of a stretch to extend that criteria to videogames where you need to think, such as RTS's, TBS's, RPG's, and strategic FPS's.

You could wrap all those industry execs in bacon and drag them through an alligator moat and nobody would shed a tear.
I dunno. Various senators and congresspeople might lament the loss of some easy campaign funding.

So the battery gauge reading at 100% indicates that the battery is nearly dead and the device will stop working in 5 minutes?
Perhaps they're representing the percentage in binary.

A: European prices usually include a very high VAT (sales) tax, that can be 10-20%.
B: The european prices were set before the dollar went down the toilet.
1. Yeah, great. We're talking about a price difference in excess of 100%.
2. When did they set them? 2005? The US dollar has been steadily falling relative to the Euro for roughly 3 years. http://finance.google.com/finance?q=CURRENCY%3AUSD

Boy, do you have one messed up set of priorities :P
No more so than 235 years ago.
Copyright has the additional category of statutory damages.

More interestingly, what if the pieces were small enough to fall under fair use standards (which is less than 20 seconds, IIRC)?
For example, 16 pieces of a 4 minute song from 16 different people, each piece containing 15 seconds of the song.
I don't think copying films or other media and redistributing them--even for free--has every been legal in the US.
Has always been civilly illegal, though it wasn't criminal prior to the NET act.
