The face of Napoleon keeps changing, but the Seven Commandments, in the form of the Patriot Act, stay pretty much the same. One problem the current Napoleon is going to have is he is too effective at killing off his Snowballs. The trick is to keep them alive, at least in the populaces minds, so that there is always justification for disregarding the Fourth Amendment. I wish Ron Wyden luck in his fight, especially against Section 201 and 225 of Title II of the "Patriot Act", the low bar of pretty much doing what you want without warrant in the name of Terrorism, as set out by Section 201, is rendered almost completely moot by Section 225 where the FBI is immune from FISA oversight anyway.

Like a cows opinion, nobody cares, because with the Debt Crisis there is a good chance the EU might not be around next year.

Newer iPhones also come with a Teslameter, I wonder if the can detect em spikes when the keys make contact with their pads. Depending on the distance, again, and using the same or similar logic you could determine keystrokes that way as well I would think. I'll try it once I get my new iPhone, the old 3g doesn't have teslameter in it.

99.9% of the test subjects eventually just stopped working, talking, eating, and moving they were so completely pacified. The other .1% became insanely enraged and started slaughtering, eating, and/or raping the the musicians and producers. So the problem kinda worked itself out.

Submission + - Ask Slashdot: Ice Stalagmites (flickr.com)
vaene writes: I've seen this on occasion always wondered what the physics were behind this phenomena. Is my ice just happy to be in the freezer? Is there a flash freezing of the sublimation path? I am pretty sure there is no dripping going on from the top of the freezer, so just how does an Ice stalagmite form?
Foundation Drupal 7 98
Michael J. Ross writes "Of all the better-known content management systems, Drupal is oftentimes criticized for having the steepest learning curve. Yet that would only be a valid charge as a result of Drupal's great power and flexibility — particularly in the hands of a knowledgeable Drupal developer. But how can the interested programmer begin gaining those skills, as quickly as possible? One approach is to read and work through the examples of an introductory book, such as Foundation Drupal 7, written by Robert J. Townsend (except for a chapter contributed by Stephanie Pakrul)." Read on for the rest of Michael's review.
