The point was that it had been the position of the Catholic Church that God worked through evolution. They had to resort to some trickery about the length of a day in order to make it jive with the bible, but they got it done.
This new 'ruling' by the Archbishop brings all of that into question.
Well you can, but in theory you shouldn't be able to do so.
The constitution clearly states that government does not give rights as it does not have that power. Your right to free speech is guaranteed by the fact that you are a human being, it being an inalienable right (that which cannot be taken away).
If you are employed by MegaCorp and subsequently go around bad mouthing them, you'll likely be fired. Of course, in a technical sense you still have the freedom of speech, but exercising your right will get you fired. I believe true freedom means being able to exercise your rights without fear of any such actions.
Incorrect. This is a debate on managed trade. Free trade concerns having no tarrifs and barriers to international trade and nothing else. In another comment I mentioned that Ron Paul (R-TX) said a free trade treaty could be drawn up in about a paragraph.
As far as the armed resistance speak, 75% of it is self-aggrandizing trolls thinking they're going to get away from their computer for more than a day to fight "the man" like its some mod for BF2. The other 25% are just damned tired of continuing to vote for the loser in elections. When I voted in the 2004 election, the only person I voted for that won was running unopposed. In all actuality, nothing would have changed if I had not shown up to vote. In the 2002 election, I was able to help elect my county auditor and county commissioner. Everyone else lost. I'm sure its the same for Republicans/conservatives who live in Massachusetts (I'm liberal/libertarian in SW Ohio). They keep voting to make a change and nothing happens. Of course, I believe this is all due to gerrymandering, but I digress.
I truly think we're past the point of being able to vote-in reform, mostly because reform needs to start with ballot access laws and the current legislators think the laws we have on the books are just super. IMO, a constitutional convention is in order along with a complete rewrite of the US Code.
The legislative districts are so gerrymandered in some parts of the country you could literally prop up a cadaver in a wheelchair and he/she would handily beat the opposition (alluding to Strom Thurmond). In many parts of the country people would rather have no representative than a [pinko democrat/jesus-freak republican].
Of course, we all know independant candidates aren't going to win, so basically you're stuck with the guy you have now until redistricting in 2010.
It should be noted that one of the House Republicans tried to vote "NO", but the machine did not register his vote. He left during the course of the vote and could not be found to correct the error. Furthermore, the other House Republican was planning to vote "NO", but had other priorities. It is worth noting that had those two Republicans voted "NO", the bill would have failed. Of course, you'd assume that DeLay/Blunt would have twisted at least one arm hard enough to get it to pass.
Oddly enough the full name is DR-CAFTA in order to not make the Dominican Republic feel left out. Our president made sure no one forgot Poland and now he's moving onward to make sure no one forgets the Dominican Republic.
You might be interested in Rep. Ron Paul's (R-TX) comments on CAFTA. He basically said that CAFTA isn't free trade; it is managed trade. He said that he could draw up a free trade treaty in a matter of a paragraph, but that the CAFTA bill was a couple hundred pages.

Last I checked no one was talking about how the book lobby owns politicians. Substituting money for influcence, since the former begets the latter, it should be obvious who has the influence in the EU and in the US Congress. Those with lots of influence will bend and/or change the laws in order to give themselves more money (and therefore more influence). If the book lobby had more influence, I'm sure we'd see attempts at patents on novels.
What magical quality of software allows it to be patentable when you can't patent a novel?
There is much more money in software than there is in novels. That is really all everything boils down to. If novels brought in the kind of money software does, they'd be pushing to patent novels as well.
802.11-based technologies are not designed for WAN deployment. 802.11b is 11mbps and 802.11a/g are both 54mbps. Neither of these come close to what most people get via their WAN connection. These are LAN products which will make them competitive with Gigabit ethernet, not DSL or Cable.
Obviously current and power aren't the same thing, but I was making the assumption that the submitter simply used them interchangeably, making a layman's error.

Well if I wanted to run an open access point, I'd have a hard time doing so if WEP cannot be disabled. A much better solution is to have 64-bit WEP enabled with a default key out of the box. Your average Joe wouldn't ever change the key, but it lets any passersby know the AP is private.

It only works the first few times. Someone needs new trolling material.
Actually, I'd be suprised if they had 10 fingers and 10 toes after inbreeding for so long.
Even then, as soon as you clock out your responsibility to your employer ends (or ought to end).

Use some lead plating in those suits. That'll protect 'em! ;-)
Actually, in Soviet Russia CAFTA follows YOU!
He was steadfastly against the bill from the start. The official story.
Conspiracy theorists say that the Republican leadership erased his vote since he was a vocal opponent.
After all, this is a debate on free trade.

Whoops ... I meant to say that the WAN is always the limiting factor. Of course, your LAN bandwidth will always be more than your WAN/MAN bandwidth.
That is exactly what I meant. And I always seem to word things in odd ways. ;-)

Sure.
I = V/R
If R->0, I->INF.
Its certainly possible.
It makes for an interesting scenario:
1) Set up open access point
2) Wait for someone to connect
3) Sue for unauthorized access and theft of services
4) PROFIT!
You don't even need a "???"!
