Well private gun sale laws vary from state to state. For instance, in Oregon private transfers of firearms are perfectly legal without background checks or going through FFL dealers. So anyone can side-step a background check in a state like Oregon by asking someone else to purchase the gun legally and then give them cash for it. Does that mean we should expect more gun violence in states like Oregon?

Please excuse my ignorance on this matter, but why are people so concerned about "untraceable" guns (i.e. guns without serial numbers)? IF a gun is used in a crime, how important is it that there's a serial number stamped on the receiver? As opposed to, say, ballistics showing that a particular gun was used in a crime because of the rifling marks found on the bullet fragments and the firing pin indentation on the shell casing?

Sure a serial number will tell who the original purchaser of the firearm was, but that in itself does not necessarily prove that the original owner is the one who committed a crime.

I'd upgrade to the Paperwhite just for the built-in light. I backpack a lot, and reading my Kindle with a headlamp is really annoying...

That's a made-to-measure (MTM) suit, which is a completely different animal than a bespoke. I get MTM suits for myself, but I have a cousin that buys bespoke. They're so nice...

So if you wanted to see the actual salary of a particular coworker, all you would have to do is create a pool, enter in 3 bogus salaires yourself, and give the link to the other person?

Asking the world to change/ boiling the ocean... Plenty of people get drunk without sticking their hands up women's skirts. The "logical conclusion" is not to remove the women from the equation.

It's pretty clear that the issue at hand is harassment, not merely being hit on.

What you're saying is this is how men behave and women should either put up with it and stop complaining, or stay home?

One site, I think the LA Times, would show your the entire article but then redirect you to their pay page after a few seconds. I just turned off javascript and it solved that issue...

The article does mention Etsy. There's even a link to a research report on the workings of IV.

More megapixels isn't necessarily better. The sensor was probably chosen for a specific reason, one reason may be that the sensor was matched to the optics (lenses) they decided to use...
