Problem with the registered mail bit, and it is why the patent office does not allow it as proof of prior art or that you had the idea originally.
Most post offices around the world do not have a problem getting paid postage to send an empty unsealed enevelope. There is no problem putting whatever backlashed upon you into an envelope and claiming you knew and forewarned people ahead of time....
Actually, despite being a geek and loving binary logic, there are more categories than simply military/combatant and civilians
for combatants, there are 2 types, lawful and unlawful combatants. an example of a lawful combatant would be a military member in uniform.he is a legal and legitimate target to other military members of an opposing force. however, not all military members are lawful combatants. take for instance chaplains or certain members of the medical career fields. they are afforded certain rights and privileges, such as being allowed free from a pow camp, however, if they do something to deny those rights, such as leading a charge in battle, using a weapon in hostility, they lose their special status and become unlawful combatants. other examples of unlawful combatants are terrorists, civilians taking arms against a lawful combatant.
civilians are normally not combatants, and if they are, they become unlawful ones for the most part. the whole idea behind this is to limit civilian casualties. if someone is waging war against you, and hiding among the civilian population then they are breaking several of the Geneva conventions that govern modern warfare. depending on the military necessity, you will most likely not bomb a small town to get a few unlawful combatants or opposing lawful combatants.
its complicated and required annual training for military members, but there are more than just 2 simple "groups" to this situation.....
With the Air Force currently force shaping its airmen in order to recapitalize the aging aircraft fleet, where does a new Major Command and the ensuing support structure fit into the overall plan of doing more with less? Is there some reason why this has to be a Air Force program and not a joint contribution program? Also, with the increase in contracting out 3C0 and other networking career fields, does this entire MAJCOM have the possibility of being outsourced in the near future?
Those who are against replicators are just like those who sold buggy whips in the early days of automobiles, or those silly fools who took on pirates with their "intellectual property"...
Actually, its not exactly metric for SI standards, where this unit requires 1024 mega shits for a metric shit ton, the SI unit uses a gibishit load to make a shit ton...
The same weapons systems need to be maintained at a constant state of readiness regardless of peace or war. Would it see an increase in costs for the maintaince of modern weapon systems? Of course.
Perhaps this could factor in later on, but surely not in a matter of weeks.
"yeah when it comes down to it, its illegal but they aren't going to enforce it"
Time shifting and fair use are both legal examples of non infringement of copyright. Just because you take a copy of something you own and put it on a device does not make you a pirate. That would most likely involve ships, murder, rape, and actual stealing, not any of this denying a sale crap....
But on the other hand, what is the difference between buying votes which would be hard, or simply buying a poilitician which seems more and more commonplace....
Will 4th edition use the same or similar systems for miniatures? Will a medium creature still fit in a 5' x 5' square? A friend of mine has a large collection of minatures and a decent sized third party map, and I am just hoping we do not have to move onto something else in order to satisfy the new rules...
- no protection by the law: as a foreigner you are not protected by any american laws. The constitution doesn't apply to you. The authorities can do with you whatever they want, for any reason they feel like. You could be sitting on a beach one moment and being beaten up in Guantanamo Bay the next, and noone would care.
Since when do other countries allow the full rights of its citizens to their visitors/tourists? If this were to happen more often, then there would be no reason to actually become a citizen, merely visit whenever you need something...
At least from what I have heard of from Walmart. People have ordered the bundle, then returned the crap they don't want in a retail store, and get their money back.
Lunch Money is another great card game. Maybe not something to play with grandma, but certainly a fun game. It has the basic premise of you are extremely violent kids beating the crap out of each other on the playground. Can use a bit of imagination and have some rolling good fun.

Get with the times and technology,
(Yeah there are a few CDs with some form of copy protection but those still aren't as bad as DRM.
WHA-WHA-WHAT?
What do you think that the copy protection is per se? Something that is not classified as DRM?
Could this have any correlation to the protests against scientology? Perhaps in response to the protest on the 15th?
Sir,

Personally I opted for the radiocactive grapefruits,a bit bigger, but they do give off that pleasant green glow...

If the funding went up, the quality of research remeained constant, and the amount of articles published went up, then the awnser is simple.
Reduce funding, which if the quality of research remains constant, should produce more articles...
Hyperfast emergency lanes?
Wouldn't the ability to stop the belts be able to do pretty much the same thing.
Though those belts probably would not help an already overweight population go out for a "walk"
