I am pretty suspicious of all the things that people claim as " inviolable human rights" now. Would the USA put its money where its mouth is and give money to foreign powers to give people internet access? Would they even pay for someone in part of the USA who can't afford access in a remote area?
If anything this dilutes the idea of real human rights - if every country in the world doesn't provide "human rights" to someone or other it becomes meaningless to criticise counties on this ground. Human rights should be confined to life, liberty, and essentials that we would all agree on.
Correct me if I am wrong but on the news this morning they said that most of the content of the Huffington Post came from unpaid bloggers, usually with a liberal outlook. It seems to me that they might not be as happy working for nothing for AOL as they were with an independent outlet. What are the chances that a good number of them will move elsewhere?
.. accurate simulations are not news for nerds? I have no interest in American Football, or most other competitive sports, but I still think this is cool.
What would really impress me is if they could predict the results of the Pakistani cricket team, including who was going to bribe who. The meta model for corruption would make this much more challenging than a game prediction.
Then that's not science, it's a bullshit claim by one guy who for all we know throw down some rocks in his back yard and took a picture of them. [citation needed]
By looking at the picture consists or a complete circle of stones, almost touching. Inevitably some of them will be in "perfect alignment with the setting sun on a midsummer's day", as will some of the bricks in my house.
Now people are using ipV6 isn't it time for someone to invent ipv7, so the uber-geeks can still tell everybody how they really should switch to the latest technology?
Your donation will go to providing satellite internet devices, other related equipment, to help with network access costs,and general support for Egyptians and people working with Egypt during this crisis and beyond.
Not very hard to find an answer.
Instead of an invoice for my 3 minutes of searching, may I kindly ask you to go to the posted link, fill in the form and hit the "Donate" button.
Thank you.
What's the betting it will end up paying for weapons to attack Israel and the West once the Muzzies take over.
Ethical vegetarians... indeed.
Industrial production of non-animal meat and other animal products would probably mean near-extinction of remaining flocks and herds. Once they are economically unworthy, and being unable to survive in natural environment without humans, doom is up for most domesticated species. The owners will slaughter remaining animals and sell them bellow price of "factory meat" to recover part of their expenses.
As opposed to doing this in a repeating cycle over and over again.
.. cause what passes for farming these days will really survive the ability to make food the same way we currently make beer.
And look at the inputs into beer - barley, hops, yeast. I find it very unlikely that all the input nutrients will be synthesised from inorganic sources.
A modern mobile device has to withstand the moisture from rapid temperature changes like getting outside in winter from your home.
What they do not have to withstand is being dropped into a water basin or similar... except certain special devices which are hardened against a lot of environmental effects.
Esp when looking at the target audience, I have no idea why any court should accept apples original stance on moisture for mobile devices.
If the guy next to me's stupid ring tone goes off one more time his phone may have to withstand a very quick change to a warm, damp, dark environment.
What are Vegetarians going to do when this comes out? It'll throw the WHOLE damn system out of whack! "Sorry, is that a Vegetarian Friendly Steak? Great! Medium-Rare."
I can see people going both ways. Ethical vegetarians would probably decide based on whether there was an ongoing need for real animals, the testing needed, etc. Environmental vegetarians would look at the impact compared to crop growing and make a rational decision. Those who just don't like meat (my mum is in this category) won't bother trying it.

All the rational criminals must be moving to more lucrative sources of ill-gotten gains.
Congress? We did have mid-term elections a few months ago in 2010 - when this crime dropped. Coincidence? I don't think so!
Entering politics certainly is a more lucrative sources of ill-gotten gains, and attracts many criminals.
Ah I had forgotten DEC's love of octal, even after everyone else used hex. Then there were the SIXBIT and SIXBITZ character strings yo used to pack six characters into a word (a good solid 36 bit word, even back in 1963).
Your company allowed me to play my first ever video game, Lunar Lander on the GT40 graphics terminal

They deleted all the content on his iPad.
that's beyond hilarious
He doesn't know which is worse, the loss of data or being publicly outed.

If they waited another year it would have been Huffington Post buying AOL.

Go die in a fire already. AOL? Huffington Post? Can you get more irrelevant than this?
Well your comment makes a good attempt at it.
What's that you say?

In other words an outcrop circle.

But let us read the fine submission again:
enough to lift a human weighing up to 150 kilos.
That is one fucking big human that has no business being in the air.
or in the water...
Its the new kamikaze, they drop him on the enemy. They have to do something with the fat kids when the draft starts.
This will only encourage those who blame Mossad for shark attacks and who detained a vulture for working for Mossad. perhaps they will be detaining mice now.
Go fuck yourself you pedantic asshole.
Don't you mean go and fuck yourself you pedantic asshole?

Thank god for silverlight, this html5/javascript shit runs like crap.

Just look at how far we have come since then.

There's not really a realistic third option
