If you dump your own Super NES Game Paks (which will become easier once Retrode is out), you're protected under 17 USC 117 and foreign counterparts. But if you obtained bit-identical files over the Internet, then you've copied the copyrighted code libraries written and licensed by Nintendo for use in Super NES games without authorization.
Actually, a US Federal judge just recently suggested that if the only items that a defendant had "pirated" were items that he already owned a license for, that she would be willing to listen to a Fair Use argument on that:
According to Judge Gertner, "the ability to 'space-shift," by moving music to a more compact and portable medium; the ability to obtain individual tracks, increasing consumer choice; and the ability to sample music prior to purchasing it" all might "belong in the fair use calculus."
Ah, but gravity is MUCH easier to test than a past that we can no longer see, which makes gravity the more straightforward theory.
So, for creation/big bang we can either go with observation, but that would favor creationists as God was the only one there. (But when you get to the worldwide flood, you gain over 200 separate cultures in every part of the earth that believe that a deity destroyed the entire earth saving only one family.) Back then, 200 cultures was nearly everyone on earth, BTW.
You can look at the fossil record with all the evidences of gradual change everywhere....Oops, wait. There really isn't any evidence of that at all. Over 99% of fossils look exactly like the creature does today. And many look like they were buried rapidly. And many have blood vessels that are "surprisingly well-preserved", too well-preserved to be as old as they say they are. But nobody believes they are actually "young" like they look.
You can look at genetics. Oh wait, that proves there was an "Eve". And worse, if you count the mutation rate backward, it only goes back 6,000 years before there are no more mutations in the human genome (but nobody actually believes such a ridiculous number). http://www.dnai.org/teacherguide/pdf/reference_romanovs.pdf
Also, no gain of genetic material has ever been observed. Only losses that occasionally result in positive benefits, but usually result in childhood diseases. You can also see how close our genes are to monkeys. Except that they are actually closer to dogs, pigs and rats, but nobody is saying we mutated from these.
We could look at the planets. No, that doesn't work. The creationists correctly predicted the magnetic fields of every planet. The non-creationists had to have a major asteroid collision on EVERY SINGLE PLANET to even come close on their theory. And certainly the Oort Cloud is a fairy tale if ever there was one. There's no evidence for that at all, except that comets would prove the solar system to be less than 100,000-150,000 years old otherwise.
We could look at the simple cell. No, wait, it's more complex than a PC and looks about as designed. And even Darwin himself said that if cells turned out to be complex, everyone should discard his theories.
Evolution is anything but straightforward. But it's the best that people who refuse to believe in God can do. Professor Richard Lewontin, a geneticist (and self-proclaimed Marxist), is a renowned champion of neo-Darwinism, and certainly one of the world’s leaders in evolutionary biology. He wrote this very revealing comment:
‘We take the side of science in spite of the patent absurdity of some of its constructs, in spite of its failure to fulfill many of its extravagant promises of health and life, in spite of the tolerance of the scientific community for unsubstantiated just-so stories, because we have a prior commitment, a commitment to materialism. It is not that the methods and institutions of science somehow compel us to accept a material explanation of the phenomenal world, but, on the contrary, that we are forced by our a priori adherence to material causes to create an apparatus of investigation and a set of concepts that produce material explanations, no matter how counter-intuitive, no matter how mystifying to the uninitiated. Moreover, that materialism is an absolute, for we cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door.’
So science cannot prove God or creation, but only when it refuses to.
But being as ALL of the evidence gathered since Darwin was pontificating points to Evolution being the mechanism by which life changes, science (and the science classroom) should stick with that.
So, since any science relating to disproving evolution has been kept out of the classroom (and journals, and media) for your entire life, you are unaware of any proof to the contrary, so anything creationists say should be kept out, because they have no evidence???
anti-sodomy laws are supported by some christians who believe such acts to be immoral, despite the fact that what goes on behind bedroom doors doesn't affect the people outside the bedroom
Actually, I would venture to say that the Sodomy that took place in Sodom affected the people outside the bedroom because of the judgment of God against a corrupt society. This is why Christians are against sodomy, even behind closed doors.
This happens in hockey all the time. If the shooter makes the first move, it's usually a save. If the goalie makes the first move, it's generally a goal.
Meaning: before IP was invented, just a few hundred years ago, writers made no money. Which is, of course, absurd. IP is a scam, as much as religions or the war on drug.
Actually, writers made no money from their books and often were a ward of the king or of a wealthy noble or were a poor monk or priest. And there were virtually no books, they were prohibitively expensive and nobody was literate because of this. But don't let history get in the way of your historically-based point.

Do tell. Since I've never found a per-site whitelister like NoScript on anything else.
You would never know it based on the times I've been there...
My Netflix disc wouldn't work either until I reset the date/time this morning to March 1.
No. It's like calling ONE phone number and having the operator tell you 3727 secrets about her boss.
The school claims that this story was made up by the student after being caught with the stolen laptop.
According to them, the system only took 1 single picture to recover a stolen laptop. Now, the thief's parents are suing the school.

OK, start here. But be careful, some of these articles are extremely technical if you are not in that field.

Sounds like a circular argument to me.
Or simply that God allows rebellious people to be evil to each other...for now.
Or creationists could have tons of scientific evidence:

It depends. Is this one of those educational institutions that was started by Christians, such as, you know, ALMOST EVERY COLLEGE IN THE US?

As a convicted monopolist, it behooves Microsoft to have as many tools remain third-party as possible.
It's interesting that it's kind of like what the Bible always said about God.

I use the Google Toolbar (yes, on purpose). I like the word search buttons and the AutoFill button to fill out forms for me.
The others are a complete waste and install surreptitiously, but the Google Toolbar does have some nice features.
I thought all that self-flagellating ended before the Dark Ages.
Actually, he is insulting 1.63 percent of the population. Heck, there are almost as many Scientologists as gays.
Exactly. I put Windows 7 Ultimate on my $279 EEEPC 900 and I love it. What a great portable machine that does almost everything.
