Along those same lines, it should be noted that the paperback edition of "The Everything Store: Jeff Bezos and the Age of Amazon" will not be out until October 7, 2014, so it's not too surprising it was shown as "unavailable." Actually, if you go to Amazon right now, it does list the paperback edition (http://www.amazon.com/Everything-Store-Jeff-Bezos-Amazon/dp/0593070461/) as available, but it looks like it's only from third-party sellers, who may have mixed up their hardcover and paperback listings. The hardcover edition is available from Amazon, and at a cheaper price than, say, Barnes and Noble.
Legal vs. illegal isn't particularly cut and dried in general. But arguments alone normally aren't illegal, provided they avoid weaponry and stay within reasonable volume limits. Admittedly, the second of these seems hard to achieve on the Internet.
Iran is not a semitic country, by and large. The majority of the population is ethnic Persians who speak Farsi, an Indo-European language. The second largest group is the Azerbaijanis, who speak a Turkic language. I don't think the semitic population (mostly Arab and Assyrian) amounts to more than 10%.
My guess is that all the high numbers represent errors in the filters, or the statistics, or both. Remember, these are only blocked accesses, not all accesses. Why would anyone - even a member of Parliament - repeatedly try some site that was blocked hundreds or thousands of times?
The submitter's theory makes no sense, either. If the drop in numbers was due to the FOI request, why would the numbers be down in February, up in April, and down in June?
The problem is, the state officials talked about it publicly. If they had just whispered it to each other in private cell phone conversations, the NSA might have paid attention.

Uh-oh. So when they try to ship the stuff to the U.S., this might happen.
Admittedly, they face a few more logistical problems than bears ever did.
I don't think Pixar actually used the name "RenderMan" until the late '80's, but they do count their earlier work as part of it now (http://renderman.pixar.com/view/brief-introduction-to-renderman).

No, I don't quite get the relevance, either.
Posting to undo weird mismoderation.
I think he was on Beta Pic b, and the rotation was so fast it made him a little dizzy. He meant to post on Deadspin, but it ended up here instead.
C'mon. English and economics both start with the letter 'e' so they're pretty much the same thing.
True. It's just that, judging by the average presentation I've seen / paper I've read, you're probably doing those jobs poorly.
And there is an article on "Emotional Freedom Techniques" which looks to be fairly factual, as well as critical.
A month of Top Ramen is more painful than all of Spinoza's works.
Their rendition of "Yellow Submarine" has changed my life. Not for the better, mind you.
Guns at least don't stick you with a 2-year contract.

Geography is sooo overrated.
Well, if she can't be bothered to pronounce her name correctly, why should anyone else care?
I know, I know, that takes all the fun out of it.
I was unaware that Chicago State owned Blogspot (where the blog is hosted).
If this is what the Greater Manchester Police are like, I'd hate to meet up with the Lesser ones.
It's just an opportunistic advertising plan devised to manipulate people's feelings for commercial advantage.
You can shorten that up a lot: It's ... advertising ...
