Yes, and Ben Laurie, who is on the advisors board of Wikileaks according to the article, is also the Director of Security for The Bunker, which is the site offering secure hosting you link to above. From this, you don't think it's possible that Wikileaks was hosted there and because of the legal/court issues was forced to redirect their hosting for the moment?
Jeopardy only applies if they wanted to try him again for the same crime... so he can't be tried, acquitted, then tried again for insider trading. However, if he's tried for insider trading, acquitted, and then tried for hacking into the computer system there's no issue with jeopardy.
Since when does that mean and? Do you have any of your English teacher's phone numbers? Because I'd like to call them and tell them what a bad job they did teaching you.
It's irrelevant how severe her injuries were? How does this even make sense in your head? Of course the degree of injury is relevant to a lawsuit about that injury.
That's only because of the way those particular sites decide to define mental illness. From the National Alliance on Mental Illness:
"Mental illnesses are medical conditions that disrupt a person's thinking, feeling, mood, ability to relate to others, and daily functioning." link Their definition page then goes on to use mental illness and mental disorder interchangeably.
I have no mod points right now, so I'll just have to agree. And given that it's listed in the DSM, which... stick with me here... is the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. Yeah I'd say it classifies as a mental illness.
While the first mass-media use may have been in Minority Report, research on multi-touch systems goes back at least to the mid-80s, and quite possibly before.

Odd. I've had the opposite experience with them. I was heartily anti-Dell because of personal experiences with them and their support. However, once I started working for a large institution that used them as the primary computer supplier, I found myself pleasantly surprised. Every time we had to contact them about problems it was a quick response and extremely quick shipping/service on needed replacement parts. We actually had a bunch of Optiplexes go bad. I opened them up and saw that there were bad capacitors, so I called up our support and told them we had about 8 machines with bad capacitors and about 3 days later our local support guy showed up with new motherboards for the 8 machines, no hassle.
I would never buy from Dell as an individual, but buying/working with them through my company hasn't given me any problems.
Well, I was merely pointing out the flaw in your comment:
This means that the user either had administrative access [which is the fault of the admin, not the user], the software was previously installed by the admins or it's the student's own PC, in which case the teacher has no business telling him how to get a job done. Because there is an alternative in that it is the school's computer, but the student could potentially still have installed Firefox.
No... I just started a new job and unfortunately do not have admin rights on my work computer. However the first thing I did was install Firefox to avoid having to us IE. Once I told it to install somewhere other than the default "Program Files" location, it went along just fine and I'm using it now.
I just take this for granted and was surprised to see someone complaining about it possibly being untrue. It's less of an issue with newer air conditioners because they -- at least the ones I've used -- have a built in safety that won't turn the compressor on again right away to prevent this. But on many older air conditioners, if you turn it off while the compressor is running and then turn it right back on it will trip whatever breaker it's on (or surge protector if you're using one).
And now you know... and knowing is half the battle... or something.
Well, with an MRI it's probably not completely about money. An MRI machine can't be shut off as it would take several days or weeks to get it back up and into a running state again. So since the machine is required to always be on, why not run people through it at all hours of the day?
For some reason my old job couldn't grasp this concept and have a research dedicated machine that is only operational for about 8 hours a day because they only have one tech to run it. I guarantee they weren't making enough to cover the machine.
well, as one reply mentions you can always use proxy cards instead of the real cards. Alternatively there are several programs designed to allow you to play online for free... Magic Workstation and Apprentice are the two that come to mind.
Yeah, except if they weren't trained then their ideas about C4 probably come from TV/Movies, in which case they could easily mistake random putty/clay as C4. And if they were trained (which I hope they were) it doesn't really matter, because how good of a look do you think they got at what was in her hand before having to make a judgment about it?
Exactly. This is one of the most effective, and least invasive methods of copy protection I've seen. I use a software program called Presentation at my job (www.neuro-bs.com) that uses exactly this method and we've never had problems with it.
Once we did have a computer die with it on, but a quick call to support and they were able to deactivate the license for us. Assuming you don't have computers dying everyday and support starts getting suspicious, this works very well.w
Plus there's the fact that the 480Mbps that's advertised for USB 2.0 is really a burst-speed possibility, not a sustained transfer rate. So transferring large video files won't go anywhere near 480Mbps. So it's certainly going to take you over a day to copy that amount of data.
Well, it would seem to me that someone who is capable of recognizing that it is in fact a sponsored ad result, and not an actual search result, should be able to understand that there doesn't need to be any business relationship between the search term and the ad links. Just because I see an ad for a dentist in the newspaper next to an article about a particular dental school doesn't mean there's any relation between the two whatsoever.
And quit.
In some sense, I believe English to be a support subject for the others classes at this grade level. If you truly believe this, then why did you even become an English teacher in the first place? I believe that's a terrible attitude to take towards the subject you're supposed to be teaching these children. What makes you think that English at the 8th grade level can't stand on its own?
I don't have children yet, but when they get to school I seriously hope they don't have a teacher like you who only treats their subject as support for the other classes.
Well, no on two counts. First, it's really the "sarcastic tone" that changes the meaning of this phrase, not the words themselves. Second, right isn't strictly a "positive" in the same sense as yes, yeah, and always are (and no, not, and never are negatives). Saying "no,wrong" wouldn't be a double negative, because again wrong isn't really a negative in the sense of no, not, etc.

Actually, it's 50 years after the creator's death for most works (except photographs and films).

I don't think the poster was referring to a quote. It IS illegal to shout fire in a movie theater, unless there's actually a fire.

Hmmm... I don't know about you, but that series of instructions takes me about twice as long as just clicking on Yes/No and submitting.

How do you know? If it blocked it you'd never know whether you wanted to view it or not :)
I don't think the OP was talking about lost frames, but rather artifacts in sections of frames due to compression/encoding problems.
