I can say I still puff my cheeks a bit — after 16 years of play­ing — I think you need to address the prob­lems this actu­ally causes while play­ing more then the issue itself.

If it causes tonal or range issues or play­ing issues of any kind address it, if the player can work around it just fine I don’t see the problem

Let’s start with his state­ment: “Once a man has become accus­tomed to child pornog­ra­phy or had sex with a 13-year-old, his per­cep­tion of chil­dren changes,” Canovas says. “He begins to see them as sex objects instead of chil­dren.” This means that a man will always con­sider a woman a sex object. Why would their be a dis­con­nect on how some­one feels towards one thing they may have sex with but not another. AL so though the arti­cle states that most pedophiles develop later in life, fol­low­ing that same logic, what about under­age teenagers that engage in sex? Do these indi­vid­u­als have a pre­dis­po­si­tion to be pedophiles? Every­one likes to build up the hype of pedophiles on the inter­net — but most stud­ies sup­port that it is more likely to come from a fam­ily mem­ber or some­one the child knows in real life. Inter­net cases are still the excep­tion and not the rule. While it is true the Inter­net may have found a “bond­ing” com­mu­nal ground for these to peo­ple to meet, it’s no dif­fer­ent then the e-mail chains or snail mail groups that oper­ated in the past. Tech­nol­ogy has always enabled com­mu­ni­ca­tion and if there is some­thing invented after the Inter­net, then that will be blamed for it dur­ing that time period. I’m sure, pho­tog­ra­phy, the movie cam­era, the cam­corder, and the VCR had their own vil­i­fi­ca­tion that they shared from this in their own time period.

True­Crypt adds sys­tem drive encryp­tion, OSX

Too bad Linux full disk encryp­tion isn’t sup­ported yet — and if you do use it thee is no way to read the drive or mount it later with a res­cue CD if there is a rea­son the sys­tem can’t boot — I’ll wait on full disk encryp­tion until it has a way for a res­cue CD to read the data (requir­ing the pass­word of course).

Bush’s Enemy #1: Den­nis Kucinich (Digg)

Though I’m still a Ron Paul faith­ful regard­less of the out­come — Kucinich held my inter­est the most on the demo­c­rat side since he proved you could still be in a party with­out hav­ing to tow the party line. If the fol­low­ing from the arti­cle is true Kucinich really is one of my heroes:

There is a report cir­cu­lat­ing the web that before the Nevada pri­mary Kucinich was vis­ited by rep­re­sen­ta­tives of Nancy Pelosi and the Amer­i­can Israel Pub­lic Affairs Com­mit­tee, the right wing Israeli lobby. They told him that if he would drop his cam­paigns to impeach Cheney and Bush, they would guar­an­tee his re-election to the House of Rep­re­sen­ta­tives. Kucinich threw them out of his office.
