"Once again YouTube has defeated Viacom
and other members of the content cartel; once again the Court has held
that the Digital Millennium Copyright Act actually does mean what it
says. YouTube had won the case earlier, at the district court level, but
the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, although ruling in
YouTube's favor on all of the general principles at stake, felt that
there were several factual issues involving some of the videos and remanded to the lower court
for a cleanup of those loose ends. Now, the lower court — Judge Louis
L. Stanton to be exact — has resolved all of the remaining issues in
YouTube's favor, in a 24-page opinion.
Among other things Judge Stanton concluded that YouTube had not had
knowledge or awareness of any specific infringement, been 'willfully
blind' to any specific infringement, induced its users to commit
copyright infringement, interacted with its users to a point where it
might be said to have participated in their infringements, or manually
selected or delivered videos to its syndication partners. Nevertheless, 5
will get you 10 that the content maximalists will appeal once again."

So we started with Adam and Eve...they had children...Where did the children get their mates? They most likely did not have Android on cell phones...
"Students at the University of Iceland have written an Android app that helps you avoid dating your cousins.
The app accesses the Icelandic national genealogical database that
contains information on all living citizens and their ancestors going
back 1,100 years. Tapping two phones together will bring up an alert if
you share a common grandparent." Just one of the consequences of having a population small enough (and well documented enough) to have a well-known genetic makeup.
Do you know these evil men? They bombed innocent humans.

Every once in a while you see someone at the gym show off with a jump rope as if they were a boxer in training. You can't jump rope! This woman proves it to you that you can not jump rope!
