GOES 13 went down in September of 2012, then came back online sometime (CBA to find the exact date) in October and was used to monitor Sandy (in parallel with GOES 14). Now it's broken again.
The owner shuffling of the Press Gazette (who runs the awards) through the 90s, then them going out of business in 2006 and than being bought and remade (this is where I was pulling the PB comparison) in 2006, then sold yet again in 2009.
The "3 years" bit was me looking at the site and only seeing awards dating back to 2009 (apparently they redid the site with the last change of ownership and didn't bother bringing the old records with them) and was an error on my part.
Someone out there is gonna hear that "Vitamin C kills TB" on the interwebs and OD on it, sooner or later.
ODing on vitamin C would take some doing. The predicted LD50 is about 12 grams per kilogram. You'd be more likely to die from choking on it than from ODing on it.
Saying the current Press Awards were established in 1970 is about as accurate as saying that Packard Bell, seller of cheap crappy computers in North America, was established in 1933.
Some, yes, but Harper and Flaherty were already running the country into a deficit (From a surplus when they got elected) before the economic issues came along.
or c) The people who own it don't give a crap about the long term because they need to meet the numbers for next quarter and collect their bonus or because by the time the problem shows up, they'll have already got their money and buggered off to the Bahamas.
How do you make decisions in a country without data to base it on?
Easy. You just use your policy. Not having that annoying conflicting evidence cluttering things up saves you time as you don't need to bother with policy-based evidence making and can just plow ahead.
Someone filing a notice of claimed infringement under OCILLA already has to affirm under penalty of perjury that he represents the owner of copyright in a particular work
Correct. But they aren't affirming that they represent the owner of the work being taken down, just the one they're claiming they own.
"I affirm that I am the copyright owner on X. Take down Y."
They are not affirming that X is Y, merely that they own X.
When the problem predates the technology (or at least the wide adoption of the technology), it's pretty unlikely that the technology is the primary problem. It may be aggravating things, but the root cause is somewhere else.
I don't think they can force sellers outside of the USA to charge US state sales tax to their customers so I guess I will be buying some stuff 'offshore'
Which makes things really easy for them because they can just hit you with the tax when it goes through customs.

Still too low. 1 sucker born per second would result in only about 24% of people being suckers.
If cold fusion were invented tomorrow everything changes...
True. I for one would be worried about getting hit by one of those flying pigs.
With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine.

2. And? Despite Conservative claims, there were very few (as in barely-breaks-two-digits) complaints about it.
5. You have a funny definition of "fact". Pipelines spill more than twice as much oil (per amount transported) as railroads do.

Wow! Awards from an organization that has been going for a whole 3 years. That's certainly a long-standing respected organization.

Ummmm... and if the attack originates in a highly distributed bot-net?
Then you use more tomahawks, obviously.
What about the script-kiddie is on US soil?
Then you send in the drones.
No, it's really the NRMA. National Rifle Manufacturers Association. But they liked having a three letter initalism instead.
If you issue 1 invalid DMCA takedown notice you lose the right to issue takedown notices for the next 12 decades.
Some small improvements.

MSG? Why is that in vaccines? To enhance their flavor?
MSG is apparently used as a stabilizer.
I believe Breyer, Scalia, Kennedy, and Ginsburg only have Bachelor's degrees in law.
narrowly fixed work schedules across a team make less sense every decade.
So we should only expect them to persist for the next century or so.
I dunno about in the USA, but I get charged GST on my Amazon.com ebooks here in Canada.

Because we need to prepare them for a life of sleep deprivation caused by having to start work at 8am on the dot.
I believe Skype utilizes STUN to deal with NAT, so it'll work, but fully peer-to-peer stuff will break.
Today is September 7189th.
I was told in grad school that we were going to run out of IP4 addresses in 2 years. That was in 1993.
Yeah, then we came up with CIDR. Then we widely implemented NAT as a stopgap.
The wolf has actually been there. We've just been shooting at it and scaring it off. Now it's back again and we're out of ammo.
