This is a very interesting read on using liquids to bomb an airplane. It seems to be very well informed about the chemistry you'd need.

It boils down to: yes, you could make explosive liquids, but it would take too long, too much cooling and too much space. Oh and every average airport staffer can tell it apart from shampoo, because shampoo just doesn't smell of nail polish or highly concentrated sulfuric acid.

So they're just doing security theatre (Wikipedia). I believe that they arrested people who planned to do some attacks. I can't tell if they had workable plans. But the new "security measures" are bullshit.

If you need weapons on an airplane, just buy some duty-free whiskey, smash the glass and there you go. And while you think about that, stop the paranoia, please.

Neues Logo der Fakultät für Anarchie, äh, Architektur and der TU München... Ohne Worte.

Das der Fakultät für Informatik erinnert dafür an den "Knopf mit der russischen Beschriftung" - Poweronoff. Ob das Absicht war?

Tja, bei Informatik denen die "Mediengestalter" halt an Nullen und Einsen. Dabei würde ich demjenigen, der diese Logos entworfen hat keine Eins geben, sondern ihn dafür eine Null nennen...

P.S. Die LMU ist natürlich auch vom Corporate Design-Virus infiziert... positiv dabei: aus Gründen der Barrierefreiheit (Wikipedia) "möglichst kompletter Verzicht auf Flash und andere multimediale Webtechniken" sowie "Größtmögliche W3C-Konformität".

Mal sehen, wann die Fakultäten dieses neue "CD adaptieren", wenn überhaupt...

Tons of videos on YouTube use background music. Usually its some well-known song, in full length. So the authors are violating the song artists copyright, aren't they?

I wonder when RIAA will target youtube users because of the background music used in their videos.

For example the Israel attacks, Lebanon burns pathetic "video". Isn't that U2 in the background and thus most likely a copyright violation (apart from all the photos which most likely are just copied off some web site).

And there a tons of examples. I bet you'll find people dancing to all kind of copyrighted music on YouTube...
