Default Where Aren't They Now? 13 Overlooked Deaths of 2010

Quote:
Apparently, big-time celebrities consider dying to be just so 2009, because after a year of star-studded celebrity passings, 2010 saw only a few big names leave the mortal coil.

And while the Gary Colemans and the Corey Haims hogged the posthumous limelight, we think there were a few others who deserve a little recognition as well, Cracked-style

back when in order to look at boobs, you had to pay money, as opposed to typing "boobs," "porn," "pron," "nurse," "nature" or, heck, "biomolecular physics" into Google.
No kidding. About 15 years ago, I was doing some research on the "Environmental Research Institute of Michigan" and I got porn.... on my company computer system!

How could anyone tag a porno site with "Environmental Research Institute of Michigan", "ERIM", or "Polarimetry" ?????? but it happened




Try explaining that to your GM.

Default be carefull with you searches..

a very popular typesetting program among scientists is a program called
LaTeX (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaTeX). This can lead to some suspicious search phrases like "Latex images", that might raise some alarm at the office if anyone is watching.
