Though not really relavant to this story, cannabis does cause schizophreniform disorder in people with two common allelic variants in the gene for catechol-O-methyltransferase (esp one of these variants).

The Directive 1999/93/EC of of the European Parliament and of the Council already has established a framework where digital signatures are legally binding. In my country, Portugal, this has been implemented even before the directive. These certificates for signing can be emitted by any company as long as it follows some certifications. So on that aspect, it's been more than 10 years now...
The second aspect of what you say -- and the supposedly what the article mentions (not that I've read it, of course) -- is authentication against web services. Since the introduction of smart cards replacing the usual id cards, this has also become more common, but really, only some government services use it. Anyone can of course do authentication against the smart card certificate, all you need is Apache, mod_ssl and the root certificate. The certificate will tell you name and unique id of the person. This is a bit more insidious, but really no really less privacy than giving a credit card number and your name when you're shopping.
I'm surprised to hear it's so wild-spread in Bulgaria, almost no one here has smartcard readers or for that matter would know how to use it...
This is not an IE bug. It is a
.Net bug in mscorie.dll. Mscorie.dll is not required by IE. (IE works just fine, so to speak, without .Net.)
Referece? The CVE description says:
Use-after-free vulnerability in the CSharedStyleSheet::Notify function in the Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) parser in mshtml.dll, as used in Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 and 8 and possibly other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and execute arbitrary code via multiple @import calls in a crafted document.
But increasingly in non-Islamic countries Sharia law is being given precedence over local laws for violations between Muslims. This is happening in the US, Australia, Germany and the UK.
What the hell are you talking about?
Appellant, a Ku Klux Klan leader, was convicted under the Ohio Criminal Syndicalism statute for "advocat[ing] . . . the duty, necessity, or propriety of crime, sabotage, violence, or unlawful methods of terrorism as a means of accomplishing industrial or political reform" and for "voluntarily assembl[ing] with any society, group or assemblage of persons formed to teach or advocate the doctrines of criminal syndicalism." Neither the indictment nor the trial judge's instructions refined the statute's definition of the crime in terms of mere advocacy not distinguished from incitement to imminent lawless action. Held: Since the statute, by its words and as applied, purports to punish mere advocacy and to forbid, on pain of criminal punishment, assembly with others merely to advocate the described type of action, it falls within the condemnation of the First and Fourteenth Amendments. Freedoms of speech and press do not permit a State to forbid advocacy of the use of force or of law violation except where such advocacy is directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action and is likely to incite or produce such action.
