    I only saw info about Ex.ua being taken down.
    It's a worry (imo) 'cos it was a free host (isn't mediafire like that?), and in the Ukraine (I don't think that country has signed ACTA).

    Ukrainian police officers have stopped the activity of well-known file hosting service ex.ua for violations of intellectual property rights, the media liaisons office of the Ukrainian Interior Ministry reported on Tuesday.

    Some 200 servers with a total volume of illegal content over 6,000 terabytes were seized during searches conducted at the office and data centers of the online file storage provider.

    "A criminal case was opened under Part 2, Article 176 of the Criminal Code, which foresees liability for breaches of copyright and related rights, after applications were submitted to the Interior Ministry from the official representatives of the world's leading software companies – international corporations Adobe Systems Inc., Microsoft Corporation, Graphisoft Inc. etc., whose software products have long been illegally distributed through the Web site ex.ua," reads the statement.

    The Interior Ministry noted that it had been found that the administration of the Web site, despite the legitimate demands of rights holders and the provisions of the Ukrainian law on copyright and related rights, had provided the large-scale distribution in the state and abroad of illegal content, including "hundreds of thousands of audiovisual works, phonograms, videograms and computer programs."

    Police officers learned that the administration of the file hosting service had been headed by a Latvian citizen. Sixteen employees of the company's office are currently being questioned, whereas the equipment seized by police officers has been sent for examination. The number of people to be called to account as part of this criminal case will be clear after the necessary investigatory and legal proceedings are carried out. The article of the Criminal Code, under which the criminal case was opened, foresees imprisonment of up to five years, along with the confiscation of copies of works and equipment.

    The child tax care credit is always a nice bonus it would always make our return a extra grand or so after expenditures were calculated. This year the taxes will be convulted and we will both probably get audited since she is going to just claim 2 and has been claiming me as a dependent all year long. So I'm really scared about this Cancer stuff, I think I needed a scare to shake up my life and see I'm on the verge of losing everything not just my family. I dont even know if I should tell her what they said at the hospital I don't want her to think its a ploy for her to come take care of me. Anyways Raype I'm desperately trying to see the bigger picture, everytime I have gone through one of these fights with her I mope around till we make up and I hate that. One time which seems like ages ago we didnt talk for 3 months and she said it was over and I had moved on was living with another nurse untill jealousy reared its head and stupidity looked back. So here I am sitting night after night alone fixaited and broken hearted over things that are out of my hand and dont really at the least bit concern me. She wants to move on do it, good luck to that guy she is already 0 for 2 I am sure this guy is going to endure the torture maybe they be misserable together forever. If not however and somehow I survive mature I have no clue what I will wan t in the future or where I will be, I like to hope I follow my career plan and I'm sucessful; I would probably take her back new relationship or not I love her mental ass. I think years of mental and emotional abuse have groomed by brain to just tolerate and accept it but who knows could just meet some laid back chick that doesen't feed on souls and drama. I will be 26 in 4 months and I am appaled by what I have to show for being that old, I've wasted too much time investing in someone else and not in myself. So if she never takes me back screw her and her family they are a bunch of grudge holding nutjob right wing fucks and if she does well hey now I didn't mean all that

    The main reason for no one outside America liking American cars is simple. They can't afford the fuel. The US has got pretty much the lowest fuel prices in the world so only they can afford to pollute the environment on the cheap. For the rest of us, filling up a motorbike is about the same cost.

    I miss my 1:24 scale model of the XJ220 which has opening doors and boot and shit. One of the best presents I ever got as a kid. It's probably in my mum's loft now.

    EDIT: Not 1:12, that would've been massive.

    Something like that sounds like gas is dramatically increasing again, heard on the new its would be over 5 dollars in areas like Chicago. So anyways they gave me all kinds of fun meds to take that seem to be making me very ill. At least I dont have to wory about being busy with school and trips to the hospital should have my year or whatever very occupied.

    Straight line speed isn't everything. Being able to corner as well is pretty cool.
