I have bought a book/PDF via bitcoin before. It was easy. The seller posted it to a site that has password protection. Then when he received his funds he sent me a link and password to access it. You could, of course, use email just as easily. If I can remember the website we used I will post a link in this post later. EDIT: here it is. http://www.bitcoinservice.co.uk/ |

It is easy to hate the post requirements when you have not seen what lead to it. It was so bad that I personally supported a requirement to pay to be here.  |

No one here knows George or Treyvon. So let's stop assigning our own thoughts to their heads. As far as "stalking", that's quite a loaded word. The police said "we don't need you to do that.." when they thought George was following Treyvon. It was not an order, nor was he breaking any rules following Treyvon.
Everyone was within their rights until the fight started. So who started the fight? That will be the alpha and the omega of this case.

First question, did you back up your wallet to a USB or cloud hosting or something?
If not then you have a problem.
But, you said something about sending BTC? What is that about? did you send some to your stolen wallet? If that is the case, it may be because the thief has not yet turned on the client.

I got this one. IIRC, the URL in the body of the message points to a .ru domain.
An .ru domain, what a shocker.  |

Usury is a sin. You would not think so talking to American Christians, but it most certainly is according to Christs teachings. America's evangelicals have a weird "get rich" streak in them. They better hope they are wrong about Jesus. He is the dude who was arrested for protesting against the money changers. And the one who said "it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven."
Neither example of which has anything to do with usury. Fair enough. Here is a link for those who want to learn more. http://www.tentmaker.org/lists/UsuryScriptureList.html |

But.., but the guy from D.A.R.E. said if a doctor gives you drugs it's ok? It will only hurt you if you take drugs that are enjoyable, purchased from a guy in a leather jacket.

Interesting comments. Is metamorphosis a kind of reincarnation?  Are sperm and eggs conscious? Still, I see no evidence of any kind for a continuation of consciousness after life ceases. Even though an overwhelming majority of humanity believes in an "afterlife". |

It all comes down to who threw down first.
It is not advisable to follow someone you think is a criminal, but it is in no way illegal. If Trayvon hit him first and started banging his head on the pavement then he has every right to stop a potentially deadly attack. It IS a crime to assault someone. What should he do? Just give up and say "Oh well, kids will be kids"?
As far as "stand your ground laws", here is what you give up without such a law: Let's say some Anders Brevik kind of maniac starts shooting you and your family across the street from me. I would likely have my CC weapon on me and be in a position to help. However, without a stand your ground law, I would run away. Sorry, but I can't risk going to jail just to save your kids. Perhaps you could call the cops? Because when seconds count, the cops are just minutes away.
Um that is not correct. If a crime is in progress, you have the right under common law to plead self-defence for any reasonable injury you inflict preventing it. For example, giving a mugger a bloody nose even though he was robbing an old lady, not you, is perfectly legal. "Stand your ground" takes this a step further. If you think the guy is going to mug the old lady, maybe you can kill him. The "reasonable" test is removed. In this case, if Trayvon attacked Zimmerman, Zimmerman was well within his rights to kill him both under common law and "stand your ground" reinforces this. On the other hand, if the voice screaming for mercy in the 911 call is that of Trayvon, Zimmerman is in trouble. Perhaps, or perhaps not. What if it is happening one street over? can I go over there to respond? What if it is 20 miles away? I am not going to find out in a court of law. I am going to run if at all possible, even if it means certain death for your family. I would also not use my gun to stop a rape for example. Rape is not murder and I think stopping a rapist with deadly force is murder. |

i think once your dead thats it.
That is what my guess is also. There is nothing to indicate otherwise. |

Maybe someone should set up an exchange between Bitcoin and TEM. If I were in Greece, I would want to turn some of my TEM into BTC. Anyone have an idea of a TEM / BTC price?

By the way. The title of this thread describes a "war" between the electronic currencies. Bitcoin should welcome the challenge of any new currencies. In the meritocracy of an open and free market, bitcoin compares very favorably. I can't see how a proprietary system could compete with it. Many of the strongest elements of BTC, such as being open-source, private and almost free, cannot be implemented in a fee for service environment.

Someone please explain to me how having a Facebook account makes a person less likely to be committing fraud?
Who says it does. Maybe they just want your FB info for marketing? I bet if I had your social connections I could identify several hot leads.  The Article linked by Stephen Gornick. Social networks are now being used for credit checks. I was just wondering if that was a pretext to get your information. If I really wanted to establish identity I would ask for a bill from the gas company, not a face book account. |

Then there is the pesky problem of no evidence at all.

All else is mere preference.
