He did a search on Google for sites containing child pornography, went to the sites and viewed images and later opened the thumbnails and viewed the pictures for about five minutes while masturbating twice. He later went in and emptied his temporary internet files but did not delete his internet history.
Unfortunately in many states you would get a shorter sentence for molesting a child. There are many organizations trying to get the laws changed to carry a stiffer sentence. In fact in Nebraska if you are short you only get probation.
Cases like this are further proof that we do not need the Constitution to be a living document. We also need to get Judges to quit looking for precedence to decide every case. I hope this goes to a higher court or appealed again on the grounds of illegal search and seizure. Do I think the guy is guilty? Hell yes but the ends do not justify the means. There should be border searches, but I also feel there should be a limit to what they are searching for and what they can search.
My final thought is that I have seen no proof that the images were actually of a child. He was looking for child porn but did he find it or did he just find an 18 year old that looks younger than she/he really is? Splitting a hair yes, but if they cannot prove the person in the picture is under 18 this would only be attempt to commit a crime.
A representative republic keeps everyones point from being heard by only letting the voices of a few elected officials be heard. We don't live in a democracy and I for one hope we never do.
A democracy is 3 wolves and 2 chickens voting on what is for dinner.
The only thing you are going to accomplish is pissing off a cahier or two. Do you really think they report to the CEO everyone that complained about the self-checkout? I personally see where these machine benefit the customer from faster checkout and the business by providing something that never calls in sick, does not want a raise, takes no breaks and does not quit when they find a job offering 25 cents an hour more. Let's face it most people do not want to work at a cash register. Have you ever heard a kid say "When I grow up I want to work at the Walmart as a cashier"? It is a job people do not want and companies have a hard time filling those positions because of that.
I bet if you try this often enough a cahier is going to start recognizing you and running their own silent protest on your VW bus tires.
Except in cases of rape, people can easily avoid getting infected with HIV/AIDS.
Maybe you don't know this but AIDS is not just a disease that affects the US and Europe. Maybe you can explain to the millions of people in Africa that all they needed to do was stop by a 7-11 and pick-up some condoms. AIDS is a worldwide problem and in many countries rape is by far the leading cause of AIDS.
Every dollar that Microsoft makes in monopoly profits (i.e., every dollar that Microsoft makes that goes beyond what they would make in an efficient market) is money that's not available for public health, education, or development.
Just because money is spent on one thing does not make it unavailable to a totally different market. For instance let me rework your rant here. Every dollar that Microsoft makes in monopoly profits is money that's not available for Twinkie purchases; therefore Microsoft's monopoly tactics are leading to a healthier America. As you can see that is just dumb, just as dumb as your analogy. To correct another minor point Microsoft is not funneling money to anyone. Bill Gates is giving money and yes he was the founder of Microsoft but they are not the same thing.
Actually, all we need to know is the ratio of counterfeit to genuine systems You are correct. This is the part we don't know so the rest of your post is irrelevant. What we do know is that one in five of the machines that shows as counterfeit, is not.
1) They got Windows to run on their hardware. Nevermind that was someone else.
2) Made a dumb looking all in one computer that was not portable. Nevermind...
3) Used a piece of fruit as a computer logo. I think we have a winner here.
To be fair, no one looks at the downside of anything when they are arguing for the upside. Many other people argued that the current system was broke but had no solution. At least this poster offered some sort of solution. I would agree there are downsides to the libertarian way of fixing the problem but I also feel there are more downsides to the current model.

The author astutely writes that while PGP provides really strong security, this is only if, and this is a huge if, it is implemented correctly.
OpenPGP can be vulnerable to many different types of attacks and weaknesses, including poor implementation...
So one is vulnerable from poor implementation and the other provides really strong security? Hardware or software compromise is a flaw of only OpenPGP? Seems like a slightly tilted comparison.
Well it was rather hard with the misspellings and poor grammar, but I made it through.
What the fuck kind of a republitard are you???
This is where you cannot argue a point so you decide to start calling names. You make nicknames rather than use proper names. Is this supposed to make you look intelligent? You seem to equate war being wrong with building an unmanned jet that can fly well at either supersonic or sub-supersonic speeds. This is just a plane we are not building a war. Yes this is a machine capable of being used in war, but the technology could be used for many other things like civilian aircraft in the future. Oh and to answer your question, no I am not a Republican and rarely vote for any Republican candidates. I would bet by reading your comments though that it does not matter what a candidate has to say as long as they belong to the correct party you will vote for them.
Hitchcock's findings were in line with more formal statistics gathered by visitor analytics vendor VisitorVille Intelligence.
The sample size of the VisitorVille report is unknown. It appears that it would be over 2500. Assuming it is 2500+ we can say with a confidence level of 99.8% that the information is correct with a 3% margin of error.
Note: The '+/-' in the table refers to the ratio between the company's value and the benchmark value.
It does look like the last column is supposed to be a margin of error, but in fact, it is not. As for the sample size I never saw one listed in any of the articles. I would assume that it is over 2500. Even at that with the small amount of data provided it is impossible to tell if these are even unique users.
The VP who left the company was in charge of one of their most important divisions. The guy was a marketing VP (head salesman) he didn't sell so now he finds a new job.
The VP who left the company was the guy who was leading the anti-Linux campaign. From the article "Microsoft's suite of Windows Live services, which includes e-mail, search, mapping and social networking, aims to unite the company's various Web programs under a unified brand and look so it can better compete against Yahoo Inc. and Google in the growing online advertising market." Sounds real anti Linux there. Just because someone works at Microsoft does not mean they are part of the anti-Linux campaign.
On that train of thought I'm sure that there are at least a couple of analysts on Wall Street right now writing up reports about the loss of executive staff at Microsoft supports the conclusion that it's time to sell their stock short From the article "We have made the difficult decision to part ways with Martin" This means they fired his ass! Sure someone on Wall street is going to have an idea of what will make Microsoft better or why people should sell now but you can find that fodder about any publicly traded company. People speculate all the time so later they can say "look I was right". In reality they are wrong 9 out of 10 times.
Who cares if a VP left the company? The only reason this is news is because it is from Microsoft. A VP left my company a while back and I never saw it in the news, he was even the VP of IT.

You should really read the law before you try and interpret it. Other than that yes I am sure they did this to save face.

WOuldn't it be more efficient to take the war out of it and spend the money on pure R&D?
R&D is Research & DEVELOPMENT. You have to build something when you are done otherwise it is not R&D, it is just R. It is also not R&D&War.
Better yet why not just provide incentives for private enterprise to do R&D and give the money back to the taxpayers?
Well other than the giving money back part, the US government does this all the time.
How about R&D through the space program?
Have you ever heard of NASA?
Wouln't that be better then making new bombers to drop bombs on miami on a band of al-quada sypathisers?
Please use facts when making an argument. This is just a dumb statement that shows you have no good points to argue.
