We invaded Iraq, who was selling their oil on the black market (outside of UN and OPEC regulation ) to France and Russia and a host of other countries. Once we shut down Iraq, we reduced the amount of oil available - but did not decrease demand, allowing OPEC to keep their production levels the same, but increase their prices. Now, whether people think that's a Republican act to create more local income for their own oil fields, is another matter. Personally, I don't think any politician see's much of what's in front of them.

Website Sells Pubic Lice 319

A British website called crabrevenge.com will help you prove that there is literally nothing you can't find online by selling you pubic lice. A disclaimer on the site says the creators "do not endorse giving people lice," and the lice are for "novelty purposes only." The company also boasts about a facility "where we do all of our parasite husbandry and carefully considered selective breeding." Three different packages are available: "Green package - One colony that can lay as many as 30 eggs for about $20. Blue package - Three colonies to share with your friends or freeze a batch or two for about $35. Red package - A vial of 'shampoo-resistant F-strain crabs' which can take up to two weeks to kill for about $52."

Free Remote Access Tools For Windows and Mac Compared 152

from the wish-you-were-here-printing dept.
snydeq writes "InfoWorld's Keith Schultz provides an in-depth comparison of seven free remote access tools for Windows, four of which offer compatibility with the Mac. 'As you read about each tool, you'll notice that I put a lot of emphasis on remote printing. I rely on remote access tools on a daily basis, and in most cases I need to be able to print to my remote PC. For someone that just wants to check their home/office email account or view documents from outside the office, all of the utilities here will work fine. But for those trying to get some serious work done, remote printing may be the deal breaker.' Many of the free tools under review offer paid or licensed versions for access to additional features."

We should also just get rid of guns because not all bullets are effective.
I've often thought that the common citizenry like ourselves should be bludgeoning in the heads of people who manufacture and sell weapons with rocks when we see them at the mall or out walking their dog. Is that what you mean?

No, but that's exactly why I have no problem with open carry laws. :)

We should also just get rid of guns because not all bullets are effective. ;) And to echo a troll above(Right, because taking out missiles before they reach us isnt important. While visiting a giant rock in space is beneficial.), the science that comes out of these contracts is far more beneficial than the actual product.
