Or even better; why don't the universities band together and create their own? That way they could save buttloads of money on subscriptions, AND they would be free to use the actual research!
Since the call was "ongoing" when he called the police, odds are they got an earful of murderin'-plans. ;-)
And no, it's not hearsay. Hearsay is if you or I would testify, the man is most definitely allowed to testify about what he heard. True, it's not as good as an actual recording, but it should be enough.
I'm willing to bet five bucks that no criminal charges will be filed. And that the cops gets off mostly free (at worst they get "fired", and have to get a job at another policestation).
The doctors MIGHT loose their licenses, but that's as bad as it will get for them.
That's because the judge didn't sign of on any of this. As I understand it, what the warrant covered was just your "basic" anal search. That's bad enough, true, but nothing compared to this.
Re: Re: McDonalds coffee... division by four... and stupid deputies
There's a pretty big difference between "oh, that's hot" and "OH MY GOD I'M ON FIRE!" hot. Or, in other words, if my coffee can give me second degrees burns, then HELL YES they should need to put a nice warning label on it, something along the lines of "will kill you if ingested directly".
Something that always baffles me when people talk about the need to balance "security" with civil liberties is that they don't seem to realize that those civil liberties are what secures us (the people) against the government! Or at least, should do that.
Basically they are arguing for a "balance" between real security for the people (from the government) and security against an imaginary foe (terrorist, piracy or whatever it is this week) that have never had the power to do actual long-lasting harm against us.
Old McDonalds field? Seriously, I think the "field" here is "being human". While the actual technology behind it may be hella complex, the idea is brutually simple and straightforward, and since he claims he owns the IDEA (which I was of the impression you couldn't, but maybe that's just copyright?), it's obvious.
But merely making a public offering could mean that you get a couple of seconds in the limelight, especially if you can say that you have been working on the same thing for a long time.
It's a whole lot more valuable to me! I couldn't care less about what my neighbor writes in his/hers e-mails, but it is extremely important for me to know that no one reads mine.

Also from the article; this wasn't a complaint from some random viewer, it was from one of the owners. Not that it changes anything.

Come again? Are you saying that it's against your "anti-cyberbullying-rules" to call people out for "cyberbullying"?
