I'm tired of people voting in people from their own political party, or using that as their argument. You should vote in who is the most qualified and will do their best to do what you want, no matter if they're Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, Communist, or whatever.
"Now the donor star has reached a dead end -- it is far too massive to be considered a super-planet, its composition does not match known brown dwarfs, and it is far too low in mass to be a star... There's no true category for an object in such limbo"
The unstar appears to fall between the cracks of current astronomical classification..."
Hmmm... how about having part of the name being the type of star that it used to be before it's binary partner gobbled up too much of it's matter, and then adding something along the lines to explain why it no longer is that type of star.
So, for example, if that star was like the sun, we could say "Ex-Regular sized Yellow Star; nova fatality".
Hmmm.. Nova fatality.. Fatalova star.. Fits kind of well in many situations.. Fatal Lover, victim of a femme fatale; only this femme fatale was a white dwarf.
Need you be reminded that THAT is what happens on EARTH? We're talking about a near-perfect vacuum, so I am quite sure that the gases will escape at a much faster rate than if they have to displace other gases around them then just get out.
If something pops a hole in it, I'd hope that someone finds that hole quickly. If the structure is just a giant bubble, then once all the air is let out, there's no air for anyone to breathe. If the structure is like a walled one (two layers of material to trap air between them), then after all the air escapes from that, the only support will come from the air that is in the living area.
Dog's have already detected people with skin cancers, and have been shown to be able to detect lung cancers as well. I wouldn't be surprised if dogs are shown to be able to detect the very slightly different smells a person would give off if they are about to have a heart attack or stroke.
The OSCE may try to monitor the elections, but what's to stop some corrupt politicians from exporting the officials, or even arresting them for "terrorist" charges?
Somehow, I feel the OSCE may help, but I doubt that the help will really be enough.
You do want it to be dark for observing stars, so it would be perfectly dark for approximately 6 months. However, for the 6 months when there is nothing but sun, well, guess that's the time to study the results and make necessary repairs.
As for it being better, I doubt that. As people have said, limited access to view stars. It may be able to see stars better than the Hubble, but most likely in optical frequency, and maybe a few others like radio. Ultraviolet and X-rays will have trouble getting to that telescope, if at all.
Not unless the fire somehow caused trees to explode. Then again, trees can explode. Vaporize the sap in the trunks of them, and the pressure will blow the trunk apart. The exact thing has happened to trees struck by lightning. As for leaving a crater in those instances, there weren't any. But uproot enough trees and you'll have a region pockmarked with many small "craters".
This is amazing, although I'm surprised by the fact that it isn't already in use *today*! Detectives already have known that when you write on paper, it creates a depression in paper. If you're writing on a note pad, for instance, and after you write your address on the sheet above of a bank holdup note, just lightly rubbing a pencil against the hold up note will reveal the address, the one written on the sheet above the bank holdup note, all because pressure created an indentation in the paper. Plus I do believe people sometimes check when they get rewards, certificates, etc.. to see if the signature is really hand-made, or printed, just by feeling the back for an indentation suggesting that someone was writing on the paper.
Hmm.. what to do with the domain name..

I know, keep it! Just change the thing from human liver to cow/pig liver.. And also include onions!
I really don't care why Pfizer is pressing suits against the "Viagra spammers." You need a prescription for Viagra, plus using a trademarked name to try and sell people your product which is not the original, is illegal. I hope that the people who are sending out those spams are caught.
Since everything is free except the parachutes, can I just ask them to not include the parachutes in my package and get a free trip to space, while bringing my own parachute and dooming everyone else on board?
Man, let the language evolve! The spelling of so many words is changing, like independence to independance, or worse and using it in some cases as worser. For the love of all humanity and the simplification of the English language, just let it go and let the languange evolve!
that it is indeed a satire, but I see no reason for them to be sued. If you have ever seen the Flash animation, you can probably easily determine that it is indeed a political satire. "This Land" is an old song, and has been parodied many times. I am sure that if they just played the song alone without the Flash animation, it would be considered a parody. Most likely though, they're going to be screwed, and that'll be a shame.
Sometime in ten years. A real question is though, when the car is crying, what fluid does it release? Gasoline, brake fluid, power steering fluid, transmission fluid, antifreeze, oil? If it doesn't release fluid, whats to prevent fluid from leaking out?
Also, what facial expression will the car make when it gets rear-ended?
Thousands of people who received anti-addiction vaccine die after severe allergic action.
Today, after millions of people had received their anti-addiction vaccines, which were recently required by law, have died of severe allergic reaction. Thirty percent of victims were children under the age of ten years, and another ten percent were senior citizens over the age of sixty-five years.
So far, over 500 families have filed civil suits against the goverment, asking for a combined seven billion pounds in losses and emotional distress. Fifteen cases are already proceeding to go to court.

Wow.. Slashdot really recycles those stories, don't they?
Back in elementary/middle school (my elementary and middle school were the same school. Two story building, elementary on the bottom floor, middle school on the top floor) when I was in the 2nd grade we had these old computers. I don't even remember what OS they had. They were removed during the 3rd grade, but we got a new Mac Lab. Somewhere around the 5th/6th grade the MacLab was replaced by Windows NT.

Not if they were actually transmitting photos of the Library of Congress BUILDING.

Wow, if a judge needs to resort to Slashdot to make a decision, I'd think some nerd finally made Supreme Court Justice.
Three words
That's four words!
That also is four words. That's is a contraction for "That is", which is two words.

Umm.. dude, wrong thread. Unless the driver is now being sued for singing along to the "song" that he was listening to while driving.

A space craft that they were launching was struck by a Perseid meteor and exploded or went zooming off into space, but in the wrong direction.

A new printer is great, but a refubished printer, well those just don't exist.
