I don't think that is the last word on the subject. Yahoo seems to be too little worried about this.

An off topic comment:
As a Mexican it's funny to read slashdoters opinions about my country. If you come here you would be surprised that there are a bunch of us with high speed internet, cars, smartphones, etc. We are not involved in shootings every day around each corner and we don't speak the same Spanish than the "mexican-americans", actually our culture is quite different. Believing in what the TV says about a country and establish prejudices based on that is simply wrong. Based on what I have seen about US citizens on the news I would assume they like to drink a lot and show their parts to strangers, they start shooting people randomly at schools, theaters or workplaces, most of them are ignorant. Do you know what makes the US different from yogurt? If you leave them both 300 years unattended, the yogurt will grow a culture.
You see?, prejudices are wrong.

Finally, a decent porn mode. Why it took that long.

Mayans also predicted that. Well, actually Mayans predictions were little wilder.

Camille Paglia, why?, Why!. YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE!

Clearly, Contemporary Art is getting harder to understand. What a bunch of morons we are, for not appreciating a truly expression of the beauty.

Again, the government is trying to make the hackers look like overwhelmingly dangerous guys.

Is a person like this so dangerous so he has to be kept away from the rest of us, the good working honest citizens, for the rest of his life?

The last sentence is alarming, "[...]after it's been revealed that Judge Preska's husband was a victim of the Stratfor hack.". So, this is what justice is about.

I'm nothing but a casual aficionado, so may be this is a silly question but:

Why do the astronomers distinguish between giants planets and brown dwarfs?. For instance, Jupiter and Saturn irradiate more energy than the amount they receive from the sun, so the "innocuity" wouldn't be a good criteria. Them both are made mainly of hydrogen or helium, so be made of "star-material" will not help to classification criteria either. Some brown dwarfs orbit around stars, so orbiting will no help.

So, other than naming a specific factor size-mass of the planet. What is the real purpose of the classification?

I'm a little skeptic about this idea. The specific skills and knowledge needed to actually understand some concepts and furthermore, the creativity for using that understanding, is not a characteristic in most crowds.

Do not feed the trolls!

Ehleringer realized that what an animal eats and drinks does get recorded—in its tissues.

Another astonishing cutting edge information—Earth is round!

Agree with that My son started to play GCompris when he was 4 (he is 7 now). The game improved his skills not only with the mouse and the keyboard, but learning math, colors, reading and a very long etcetera . My boy has been using linux his entire life and he's becoming very good at it. Linux Paint is might be another option. But if it's the firs time your kid will grab a mouse, it will take some time for him to really enjoy it.
