Electronics would have to be rated for high operating temperatures this sort of device would see outdoors. That depends on local climate and on details of physical construction, of course, but, by and large, industrial temperature rated (-40C to +85C) electronics would have to be used.
Also, this (and the original LOSS proposal) would run afoul with the FCC and similar regulatory agencies outside of the US. This will make it yet another government agency to cross swords with.
"Greenlight has been largely exempted from the bill’s effects. If you’re one of our 5,700+ members or you live in Wilson County, you don’t have to worry about service. Greenlight is here to stay."
Q: What does it do with Simatic?
A: It modifies commands sent from the Windows computer to the PLC. One running on the PLC, it looks for a specific factory environment. If this is not found, it does nothing.
So it seems that there is one factory layout Stuxnet is looking for. I.e. it will know what point 35 is.
This looks similar to Dynamic DNS service from DynDNS.com. This is useful if you would like to have a domain name for your home network, for example, but don't want to purchase a domain name and have to update the IP address whenever the ISP changes it.
The downside I see here is that some (many?) home routers support DynDNS service to automatically update your IP address with DynDNS whenever it changes. I don't know whether home routers can be configured to do the same with IPQuick service.
Each top-level conversation contains groups of messages that are sort of like subthreads. The conversations are referred to as "waves" and the subthreads are called "wavelets". Individual messages, which are called "blips", are the smallest discrete conversational unit of a wave. The distinction between Wave the service and "wave" the conversational unit is significant, so keep an eye on the capitalization.
Why the jargon? These terms do not relate to anything anyone is familiar with in any different context. This seems unnecessary.
I genuinely hope that http://xkcd.com/483/ (Fiction Rule of Thumb) doesn't apply to Google Wave.
= A Plan for the Improvement of English Spelling =
For example, in Year 1 that useless letter c would be dropped to be replased either by k or s, and likewise x would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which c would be retained would be the ch formation, which will be dealt with later.
Year 2 might reform w spelling, so that which and one would take the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish y replasing it with i and Iear 4 might fiks the g/j anomali wonse and for all.
Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with Iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and Iears 6-12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants.

"Weindruch and his collaborators plan to continue monitoring the remaining monkeys, which could stretch the study's length past 3 decades. "If we reach the 40-year-old life span, the study could continue for another 15 years," Weindruch said."
The NY Times article says:
“Ultimately the results seem pretty inconclusive at this point,” Dr. Austad said. “I don’t know why they didn’t wait longer to publish.”
So, I think it is too early to draw any conclusions about longevity. Though, it does seem prudent to note the reduced rate of diabetes, cancer, and heart/brain disease in monkeys with reduced caloric intake.
