"As an added bonus, you are completely free to purchase a composting bin and/or create a backyard compost pile on your private property" 1) Pretty much nobody in San Francisco owns their property. 2) Nobody in San Francisco has a back yard. 3) Pretty much everyone in San Francisco (that I know) if absolutely fine with the composting rules and are glad that the city is progressive in their handling of waste.
It's worth noting that the press (right now) seems to be running headlines to the tune of "Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) sparks backlash from Facebook, Google". Average folks online get a lot of 'news' from Facebook and the Google news aggregation.
The federal rules for civil procedure (FRCP) were updated in 2006 to address issues like this. Part of the FRCP is what guides production formats during civil suits. A lot of state courts are now using the FRCP as a guide for developing their own standards with regards to management of electronic data for legal purposes. This is the rule, pretty clear. http://www.law.cornell.edu/rules/frcp/Rule34.htm
Previously if you have 10,000 emails you could just print them out to loose piles of paper and turn over boxes (sometimes 100s of boxes) of paper to opposing counsel. After 2006 there is a default that the other side of a lawsuit is entitled to the documents in the same format they are kept in the course of business. This includes meta data and it is specifically mentioned in the FRCP. Most lawyers will make agreements during their discovery conferences (aka 30b6) to agree to production formats that both sides won't find unduly burdensome.
If your company is ever sued one of the first things that will happen is the legal department will start going through your records retentions policies. Things like: destroy all deleted data from backups after two weeks, etc. They will relay this information to the rest of the parties involved. Do you know how poorly the court takes it when they find out a year into a litigation that there is a secret stash of backed up data...*any data you were supposed to report on* that you didn't disclose?
He should have hired his own forensic specialist to do create a defensible backup and analysis before going to court, which is what most law firms will advise their clients to do (in fact they have a responsibility to do) when they are facing a pending litigation and know that there is discoverable data on the drive.
"By the way, when you copy a file across a file system, from one drive to another, it gets a new creation time, so if all the files were "created" on a single day, that was when they were migrated over."
Not on a Windows system it doesn't. The only time you get a new date on it is when you download from an external system, or you manually change the date/time stamp.
You are looking at date_mod, not date_create there smart guy. I hire forensic experts and the AC seems to have a pretty solid grip.
On the other hand, it's good to see that they're leaning towards Wiimote-like gesture-based control as opposed to 1:1 motion mapping. It's the best of both worlds: the abstraction of buttons alongside the immersion of motion.
The new Wiimotion Plus gives you 1:1, which is what I was looking for in the original Wiimote (weren't most people?).
Abstraction of buttons? I'd prefer buttons instead of simply moving my hand to simulate pressing them.
You are obviously in a small firm. Big litigation practices will regularly have terrabytes of data exchanged in the course of discovery - usually emails and office types of documents that convert well to images (standard is GroupIV tiff). Printing these would fill mountains of storage.
This is a relevant issue to modern IT with respect to enterprise law firms.
Yelp Yelp (as in search for yelp), then sort by rating you'll see shit going waay back.
My gf works in the restaurant industry. When I showed this to her she told me that because Yelp just valued themselves at like 10million the news media are getting interested.
More to the point, the simple way to amend the constitution is if the ballot measure is essentially a new issue. This requires 50% of the vote.
As the supreme court in CA tossed out the previous law banning same sex marriage as unconstitutional under the civil rights portions this 'new' issue is rightfully being challenged as an attempt to circumvent the procedure.

I homeschool - my kids kick ass and I don't need your fucking State education.
Translation: I am wealthy enough to not work, fuck you.
I was just going to post this, not just for the dig but also because you're right - easily the most insightful line.
That's a miserable setup in that picture. His economy is aweful and he's using landmines - worthless.
The picture in that article makes me think this is the exact wrong size for every use it's designed for, especially as a phone.
The CD key is now tied to your battle.net account and cannot be resold.

Smart move; I applaud your initiative.

Would be arrogant enough to name their operation "Superior Council".
I want to be able to search like this:
1) term1 near2 term2
2) term2 near10 term 3
3) result_set1 not result_set2
You see a lot of search engines in the legal world that support this style of searching (dtSearch, Concordance).
So far as I know Lucene (solr?) is the only common engine that supports this sort of search.

After a cursory glance around the Groovy site the syntax seems like python with brackets, yuck.
I went into a bathroom at a pub in Minneapolis about 5 years ago, they had one of those sex-toy quarter doohickeys selling Freedom Ticklers.
YAY!
