The plain and simple truth is that when one publishes a document classified Secret it is a crime. Anyone who is a journalist knows this.

@dapper_otter: Ah , makes sense.

Perhaps I am missing something but I do not see any 3d in my maps and I downloaded it again to make sure I got the most recent version. I have a quite new phone.

@tbonesteak: You beat me to it!

@CrymeLord: You make good points.

I can't say I ever really understood why they grounded the Concorde. How many times have planes crashed due to a mechanical failure? How many thousands have died in airplane crashes? Why is this different.

I would imagine it would not be too hard to construct a fire pole in any house. I am not sure why a person would really want one though. After all who wants to get downstairs that fast ever. Also, I would imagine it would not be the greatest addition to a house with a toddler.

Instead of the treadmill listed above, I need a double wide treadmill so that I can walk with the dog. This way we both get a workout at the same time. Plus, as a guide dog, she is not used to walking without me by her side. I do not know if she will know what to do if I place her on the treadmill and turn it on. …

Recently, I was told by a Verizon rep that my phone has unlimited data. The caps come into effect in regard to the modem devices which have a cap of 5 GB and usage of your phone as a hot spot which has a cap of 2 gb.

@coirbidh: Perhaps in regard to the outcome of the experiment, but this does not mean that there is a probability of life evolving in such an environment on another planet or our own if such conditions occur at some time. The implications of a scientist finding the bacteria in a naturally occurring environment with…

@coirbidh: None the less, it is not an environment that occurred naturally.

@waht: You are right, but it does not change the fact that this was NOT a discovery of this DNA NATURALLY occurring but DNA that was manipulated. Yes there is significance to the findings, but it is not as significant as if we found a new DNA strain without phosphorous that evolved naturally.

This is the way I should fly. Well, not in women's lingerie, but perhaps in a bathing suit with a trench coat over it. I would take off the coat at the check point. I would likely pack clothing in my carry on and change into them in the airplanes lavatory. I suspect that upon taking the coat off I would be…

I don't get the Bambi reference.

What is up with that image? The halos around the two cops/firefighters in the right hand corner make me think they were photoshoped into the image, and very poorly at that.

@BIRDSEY: I have a very large screen at work in conjunction with Zoomtext software that magnifies the screen and speaks what I type or hover over with my cursor. I am not completely blind, yet, and do have a decent ammount of central vision albeit far from perfect.

@Giovani: I don't know. I can not access the full article from this terminal at work. It just seems that the post could have enlightened us a bit more with as little as four sentences.

@Expressed: So it is not an issue with the police, or the court but rather a reporter that did some sloppy reporting? Funny how the post does not really read that way.

@Lawson Culver:I wonder if it was really an issue of him being convicted of the crime or just a case of bad reporting. After all he would have had to be convicted en absentia for him to never know about it. I find it highly unlikely that he was charged via a grand jury, and then convicted en abstensia without even…
