new Anonymous gameplan: find a list of the most expensive google adwords, script them to be clicked like mad, cause millions of dollars in costs in no time
but... all you really are doing is paying google. but... you are also ruining faith in their ad program. hmmm. quite the powerful little prank
If you own Google stock, you're just padding your own pockets really.
Why even hide the card? Just have a tethered notebook in your bag and use a wifi memory card in your camera. Take a picture, have the image instantly uploaded to your notebook which will then email it somewhere on to the internet.
It's a pretty difficult task as any AP article could be quoting something that they don't own, and therefore is now included within copyright protection. They would have to flag individual paragraphs and sentences throughout an article to ensure they licence exactly what they own, and not sources they simply quoted from elsewhere.
Sorry, but you have no story there. Most all have either willingly become territorities and remain as such or were let go on their own once a stable government was setup. Iraq and Afganistan are still on their way to a stable, self-sustaining government.
What? By a stable government, you mean after the US installs an "approved" leader and party, that the people were given their country back?
This behaviour is particularly more evident in universities who deal heavily in research and development.
I know that for a few of the professors I had, many of them only taught because it was a clause for receiving research grants. They'll only get money for their own research if they trade n amount of hours of teaching.
These profs lectured for an hour or two a week and left the teaching to their teaching assistants.
However, there were quite a few gems as far as professors go. These few were only there for the reason of teaching. You could tell by their passion in their lectures and their constant open door policy for extra help.
In my school, every year the student union published an "Anti-calendar", which was a book of professor report cards. You could easily tell which were the good and which were the bad professors.
My analogy is just describing what's going on right now... with developed nations (the fatties) telling developing nations (the skinnies) to reduce their consumption.
Of course telling the fatties to reduce is much more effective.
We don't need to store it as it simply comes out of the many fresh water lakes we have. However, that water is processed to "clean" it.
You waste water by not using it for its intended purpose, like letting the tap run as you brush your teeth, or taking five baths a day when a simple shower will suffice.
I've heard of strange practices like flushing a clean toilet BEFORE you go, because it's "fresher". People do a lot of wasteful things.
if you consider the pollution on a per person basis, the Chinese are polluting far less than most developed nations.
When you're talking about a finite resource like clean air, a per capita analysis is worthless, the total effect is what's important. China has 1 billion+ people.
You have to consider a per capita basis... it's sort of like sitting at the dinner table with the fat guy with the overflowing plate telling the bunch skinny guys with a single pea on their plates to eat less.
Granted China may be the single largest user of coal power, however, if you consider the pollution on a per person basis, the Chinese are polluting far less than most developed nations.
I know for a fact, that Canadians are one of the most wasteful users of water, and the reason is because we have a lot and take fresh clean water for granted.
Perhaps before we start pointing fingers, we should start with ourselves and set better examples?
The downside is that your plan is a one shot deal, and I don't think you've done your math completely as I'm pretty sure your bungie won't bring you all the way up.
Essentially you'll end up in flames while floating away under the dirigible until the bungie burns through. Then you'll fall to earth as a burning pile of goo.
So basically what you're saying is that at every major place you've worked at, you've had an idiot. You know what, we've all had a few of those, and for some of us, some of those idiots were in the IT department.
You ask why I should be treated differently? I am under the assumption that they hired me for my specialty, and that I have a base knowledge of what I'm doing. If the IT department fails to give me to tools I need, how am I suppose to be effective?
I'm advocating tiered access. You can't just blanket a development shop with a business area and hope everyone will be happy. We have different needs and technical expertise. What is a development shop supposed to do with a base installation? You can't develop things using a text editor. And you definitely can't develop web applications if you can't setup a web server somewhere. Nor can you submit change requests to IT everytime a small setting needs to be changed.
IT department can't just lock things up and say, "Well, we did our job, the system is locked up tight, nothing will go wrong."
All they've really done is lock up the place, and prevent any legitimate work from taking place. Granted, your job is done, but at the expense of everyone else's job.
Sure, I wouldn't want an IT guy changing the development I'm working on, but at the same time, I wouldn't release an application to a client with the system locked and unable to accomplish what it was initially intended to do.
Well, this rogue moron has to install stuff on his own, because our IT support department treats the development teams as if we don't know what we're doing, and applies the same policies for business users to us.
How can I be expected to do my work, if I can't even install an IDE, because it doesn't fit the standard image they have?
Anyway, it's more a problem in the structure I have here than anything else. I just wanted to state the point of view from a rogue moron.
This page suggests the bag must be zip-topped. I've never seen anybody supply a zip-topped ventilated bag, although I suppose you could make holes in it yourself. This would probably, however, only serve to draw attention to yourself.
Not that being ridicolous is any sort of defence offcourse, lots of downrigth silly things happen anyway.
This I don't disagree with.:) It's not like you couldn't just leave the zip top unzipped, or partially zipped.
Even further back than 20 years ago, they used to give kids cockpit tours in midflight for British Airways. The head stewardess would simply take you by the hand, walk you up to the cockpit and the pilots would show you around the controls and let you look out the front window.

Sometimes you end up with 2 backups, which can be redundant.

Smuggling of images complete.
What about those briefcases that hold exactly $150k?
But usually on the back of the box were the actual screen shots of the game. So it's not like you didn't really know what the game looked like.
How much ash will this volcano produce, and how long will its effect affect commercial air travel in the EU?
It'll be interesting to see how society copes when all you can do is sit back and wait for mother nature.

You think spending up to the budget is only restricted to government?
This happens everywhere, especially in large corporations like banks and insurance companies.
The deflector dish was jammed... strawberry flavour I think.

Kind of like bringing freedom to the Iraqi people, as in Operation Iraqi Freedom. It's a gift.. really.

Who wants to be outside in cold wet weather physically exerting themselves when you can be toasty and lazy sitting on the couch?

Anonymous Coward... you stay classy!
Mine was 6 digits long and started with 999XXX... so I was in before a million!
For some reason, my password no longer works and I've never associated an email address with the account, so I may be locked out forever...
