Good call, my mistake (misread wikipedia).
I stand corrected, Palin has more time as an elected official. I'd still argue that Obama has more pertinent political experience, but that's another discussion entirely.
Mexico has among the highest income inequality in the world. I'd argue that income inequality is pretty tightly correlated with class inequality (large factor).
Combine that with corruption and the US's `economic' policies toward Mexico and I think there's a good argument for class inequality being a big part of the issue.
Wait, if it was not encrypted on the drive, but the device was physically compromised, how was it protected by any passwords, let alone two levels of passwords?
I'm pretty sure you're wrong. I know several people with hybrids. They have a gasoline engine and one or more electric motors/generators. They selectively use the electric or gas motors based on conditions, and use the gas motor and energy from braking to charge the batteries.
It looks like there are some plug-in hybrids, but those are the exception.
???
What do electric utilities have to do with hybrid cars? All of the electricity in a hybrid comes from a gasoline generator (ie 'engine'). Unless I'm missing something?

A joint project with the USPTO and NYU Law School that tries to public input on pending patents. Interesting and potentially very good idea.
very informative.
If Windows has an "unsafe" flag for files, it should be used by Safari. Also, I find using desktop as default download space incredibly annoying (yes, i'm looking at you firefox).
That said, IE should also know better than to execute random files from the desktop, which seems like the nastier issue here.
from TFA:
The problem originated from an error that Windows Internet Explorer will load some program library files(DLL) from user's Desktop instead of its own library file folder(usually C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32). Apple's Safari for Windows downloads and saves requested file to user's Desktop by default - this default behavior itself does not constitute a mistake.
The 'workarounds' suggested by MS include "Change the download location of content in Safari to a newly created directory". I don't actually know what's going on with this, but it seems like it's IE opening an improperly-named (or maybe there's some bad meta-data that comes along with it?) file from the desktop, no matter how it got there.
RTFA. Actually, it looks like this is a windows problem. Safari automatically downloads a file to the desktop. Then when you start Internet Explorer it runs the file on your desktop and there is the problem. So the real issue is that Safari can be told to automatically download a file while internet explorer will automatically run a malicious dll from the desktop. actual post and proof-of-concept code here. seems like a misleading summary to me.
Other people liking or not liking it shouldn't diminish your enjoyment of it at all! By and large I agree with your post, but any psychologist/sociologist will tell you that other peoples' opinions have a lot to do with enjoyment (in a really substantive way).
It's getting to the point where the spammers are solving real, previously unsolved problems with their spamming code. Perhaps this can be harnessed for the good "solve the following protein folding problem", "write a transcript for the following bit of audio" then we'll let you send 100 spam emails. I think you're on to something.
"factor this huge number and get a free spamming account for a week"
only problem is you have to make the captchas that grandpa can solve be harder than the problems you give to the spammers.
Actually, the means used by the state to kill criminals is generally thought to be too cruel to use on animals.
It's really designed to make it easier on the people watching, not on the people being killed.
Maybe they could combine it CMU's Snake robot, so the snake can reassemble itself when it falls out of a tree. after fetching us that tasty looking apple...
Really, if you took a touchscreen laid flat, added a bunch of multi-touch capability and some touch tags for wireless pseudo-plugs, why couldn't this be built by anyone? done and done
ratemycop.com is back up now... which makes this story pretty uninteresting. Not for long... slashdot may be even more effective than the host pulling the plug.

But you don't count Obama's 7 years in Illinois state senate?
And how does Palin's city council stint qualify as "state government experience"?
Palin's elected office:
Obama's elected office:
Rounding down, that gives Palin 8 years, most of which was at the city level, and Obama 11 years, all of which is at state level or above.
You're running someone with even less experience for president.
Nope. Obama has been in elected office for over a decade.
My point was more that Mexico has a large per capita number of conspicuously wealthy people. Good point well taken, though.
Mexico has among the highest income inequality in the world. I'd argue that income inequality is pretty tightly correlated with class inequality (large factor).

It's THAT SIMPLE!
You've never studied public policy, have you?
ummm... Bush is still in office, and still causing damage.
Impeaching the bastard would do wonders for our political system, regardless of how much time he's got left.
thanks for finding that.
well, no. having not read tfa, it seems like drizzle is going for concurrency, which was never sqlite's strong point.

Not anymore.
