If a Senator retires or dies in office, he is replaced by a member of his own party. It could be as simple as Assange trying to win a seat on his name recognition, then substitute the 2nd name on his parties' ticket.
If you know more I'd be very interested to hear what you have to say. AFAIK the Government directive was for 90% or more to be FTTH, and they were able to extend that to 93%.
It hasn't been stated officially, but assuming the NBN is completed in its current format, I would bet that post completion the FTTH footprint would continue to grow; in the same way that when bitumen roads first became commonplace, there were some areas that remained gravel or dirt, but over the years many of these roads have become sealed.
I'm sure that the wireless/sat percentages will vary, given that some councils and residents are protesting the wireless tower locations, and the government wants to get it all done by 2015. I assume that if they can't get a fixed wireless solution for an area, those households will get satellite?
I'm not sure if you are aware, but you are posting on the internet. Not everyone on the internet lives in the same city as you; some live in places where, yes, the sun DOES start to rise at 4am in the summer.
If you are buying a sound system for your house from scratch, go for Sonos. It is expensive but if you are replacing multiple existing systems and have the insurance $$ in your hand it shouldn't be too painful. I get my stuff through johnsoncorp on Amazon: http://amzn.to/sonos-au2

If it wasn’t for Tasmania, Tony Abbott would have been your PM for the last 2 years. Check out: http://www.tas.liberal.org.au/default.cfm?action=people&type=1 (For those who don’t get it, no, that page isn’t broken - there are no Tas Liberals in the House of Representatives – we supply 4 Labor and 1 Independent. Without them, Abbott would have had a majority in 2010.)
You have to remember that in your scenario where everyone is driving EVs, you are assuming that fast charging will replace refueling. In practice, 80% of refueling is replaced with recharging at home overnight; so the "gas station replacements" are now 1/5 as busy, not taking into account some (perhaps most) of those 20% will prever to use battery swapping (which takes 60 seconds, 120 if you count from the time you drive off the road to the time you drive back onto it).

... and this is the reason I'm always correcting people when they called my remote control quadcopter a "drone".
> "I don't believe..."
That's not really a counter argument.
Very very frightening.
I agree completely. Slashdot is News for Nerds, but it seems the people posting here these days aren't nerds anymore.
.. William Bell or Nina Sharp made a comment?
A Heisenberg baby monitor.

You're talking about the coalition plan, which was wireless, then cable, now FTTN?
The ALP plan has been the same since 2009 when it was announced. 93% FTTH, 7% wireless/sat.
Prior to that, yes, there were discussions about broadband and requests for proposals, none of which got up.
Then why is MySpace still around and why do I still see MySpace IDs being referenced in stuff like newly designed restaurant menus?
... you do?! Really?
There is some information on these as they relate to OpenStreetMap on the OSM Wiki - http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Copyright_Easter_Eggs

I was trying to work out what on earth you were talking about.. then I realised you don't know the difference between Wikileaks and Wikimedia.
BTW, as mentioned earlier in these comments, WMF does have additional datacentres in San Francisco and Amsterdam.
Regarding the alarm bug... I notice that user is in Australia, and we started daylight saving at 2am last night... related?
Mars Rover Bicuriosity will be visiting Uranus next year.
... when they have finished demolishing the current govt (as polls predict they will)
Polls from when? They've been 50-50 for at least the past month.
Wikia afilliated? No, it is it's own separate, private company. It was founded by people who are involved with Wikipedia but that's the extent of it.
Because the asker asked two different questions:
"What is the best option for bulk printing the photos to a physical format?" (note: physical printing specified)
"We all know how fast technology advances, as well as how fast sites come and go; I want a way to have these pictures for my son when he is older..." (note: best method is not necessarily physical printing)
There seems to be a period of photos, mid 70s or so, where EVERYTHING color faded out to crappy brown
Yeah, that's because everyone was using Instagram back then.
The same level of protection could be achieved by having both a digital copy online, and a digital copy on physical media in your house somewhere.
