AdBlock/Ghostery helps a lot. But yeah, I agree that they have intruding ads
It's been mentioned that Windows will disable a HOSTS file, I've wondered about mine recently as sites are getting through that shouldn't.Logging on to
Ok, my bad; Ghostery doesn't block sites, it blocks scripts "which are objects embedded in a web page"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghostery so even when it mentions what it's "blocked" it's already been blocked by the HOSTS file.
Is interesting to see just what's blocked for each web site/page.
This is a sig I've seen someone use on
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey http://scienceblogs.com/startswithabang/files/2013/07/kozm_LSS.jpg
shows stuff coming towards us. I've heard so many space programs say everywhere you look everything is moving away from us,
Apple has patented a piece of technology which would allow government and police to block transmission of information, including video and photographs, whenever they like.
All the coppers have to do is decide that a public gathering or venue is deemed "sensitive", and needs to be "protected from externalities" and Apple will switch off all its gear.
I guess not every company can be Lavabit or Silent Circle.

Never heard of Ghostery so gave it a try, had a version for Opera which I thought special (Opera being the black sheep of browsers).

Thank you for the heads up.
It's "just" the tor browser bundle and firefox portable, they link to both, where sources can be had.
I use TOR; it claims it wasn't ment for the downloading large files, some of the sites take forever just to load the graphics.
If Nasa.gov is broadcasting it why not watch it there

If you go to the " Go the the Marshall Space Flight Center Ustream channel" link there's (obnoxious) music being played; had a lot
of links opened and took awhile to find where it was coming from.

I like a place I can download stuff I read about on
Like when Aaron Swartz uploaded JSTOR http://science.slashdot.org/story/11/07/22/2254204/release-of-33gib-of-scientific-publications 35 gigs of some of the driest stuff I've read, but I was able to.
Only click on the magnetic links, anything else is... well different.
Secondary link http://thepiratebay.sx/torrent/6554331 not as "funny looking" as the link in the
BTW for those that want a different browser, mind a suggestion? Try Comodo Dragon for those that like the Chromium based and Comodo Ice Dragon for those that prefer the Gecko way of doing things as not only does it have none of the phone home stuff (any and all extra features are opt in and both ask during install and can be turned on and off in settings if you change your mind) but the extra features are all based around increasing security,
I use Comodo firewall It's been rated the best and it's worked very well for me.
At some point Comodo started pushing this GeekBuddy bullcrap even if you select not to install it, it would install a mini version,
then pop up reminders of it. When Comodo went with a different GUI that was so confusing (more so than normal)
I couldn't trust running it as I wasn't sure of it's configuration -almost like I should start paying for help.
Comodo is now at Version 6.0.260739.2674 I still run 5.3.176757.1236 as it's much more intuitive than the lastest versions
and as mentioned appears to work just fine.
I was all for giving Comodo Dragon Browser a try as long as this GeekBuddy doesn't tag along. Just don't like the Opt in feature
of paying for a more secure browser. Just as well it would have to be very special to replace my Opera.
I'm sure it's the same everywhere there's a nuclear reactor, it needs to be maintained on a yearly cycle.
In this area a person used to make very good money being used for their exposure. You go
in do a job until you reach your weekly radiation limit (300 mrem / 3 mSv), then do nothing until
you are usable again; for a yearly limit of (3 rad /
temporary work which your not able to perform any more.
These temporary jobs were during the summer outages and lasted a few months.
with the chance it could become a permanent position, which many did.
Would you work for NSA if the money was very good, as opposed to being used for your exposure at a nuclear
plant that produced Plutonium for intent of blowing people up? If you needed work be it temporary or a job with a substantial
increase in your income, I'm sure a lot would.
Even now I'm not sure if letters need to be entered as shown ie: some letters are upper case, some lower case.
I'm leaning towards it doesn't matter.
I was wondering how long a drug patent lasts right now and if it is tied at all to how long it took to research whatever the drug patent is for?
Drug patent's don't expire anymore, and if a generic is available they are able to restrict it's purchase in the US.
Modafinal is the generic name and can't be purchase in the US, Provigil is the brand name and was due
to lose it's patent in 2012. Nuvigil was released at that time and I can't find a reason but the patent has
been extended to Provigil to some time in the far future
Modafinal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modafinil > Provigil >
Nuvigil http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armodafinil generic is Armodafinil
Both are the same chemical structure. Not sure if you can purchase Provigil anymore, Nuvigil is cost prohibitive - say $20 a pill in the US.
It's basically a toy - less than a foot high, I think - it responds to basic verbal pre-programmed commands.
"modelled on a beloved Japanese cartoon figure, Astro Boy, it would be quite wrong, indeed grossly offensive, to describe it as a toy."
-"You can clean up a pig, put a ribbon on it's tail, spray it with perfume, but it is still a pig."
