...more tinkering is needed - more than is contained in the so-called Experimental Law Variations that Australia is advocating. Rugby gives the defending side every chance to get out of trouble, to push play away from the attacking zones and back toward center field for more tedious slog. It's time to seal some of the escape hatches. The options of kicking out on the full from, and calling "mark" within, one's own 22-m zone need to be abolished. So does the nonsense of allowing players to touch down a kick that they've gathered in their...

...Mouse’s previous ventures into the realm of the visual have included decking out frontman Isaac Brock as a crow and a pop-up-book version of a slaughterhouse. “Little Motel” is crazy in a different way—crazy dramatic, crazy tedious, and crazy overdone. This time-reversed piece is nothing new for the chronologically warped world of music videos. It depicts a night in the life of a woman who, after taking her motionless child from his hospital bed, ends up at a motel—except...

...houses don't trade like stocks, so when it comes to correcting the system when it gets out of whack, we're talking years, not weeks.

...phone's internal memory, even communication exchanged between the phone and its server, remain. Phone manuals detail how to perform multiple reset commands to erase personal information and some online recycling phone services offer command sets for specific phones, but most people never bother to go through the tedious process, Mislan says. For example, child predators who stalk "moblogs" - the cell phone equivalent of web blogs that are popular with young phone users - may believe they have deleted text messages and postings, but the evidence may still exist within the phone's memory. Mislan recently examined the cell phone...

...saying there simply weren't enough good records available for determining each worker's level of exposure to radiation on the job (earlier, pre-1959 employees were also granted SEC status). The panel said that all cases of employee illness following 1966 will be reviewed individually, a tedious process in which, some estimate, one in 10 workers would die before compensation was approved. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, $95.7 million in compensation has now been paid to 674 people. More than 22,000 people worked at Rocky Flats before it closed in 1988. The uncompensated workers have waited...
