Lawyers, doctors, etc. get paid the big bucks for good work
Lawyers are paid to be as devious, cruel, and inhuman as possible without getting disbarred, period. From telling the jury she was 'asking for it' as she was dressed like a slut, to refusing to release someone when the DNA evidence doesn't match, but stating it is merely from an 'unidicted co-conspirator'. If your shark wins, I suppose it is 'good work', in an expediently sociopathic sense.
Attorney: from the Latin attorni: to twist (both the truth and the opponent).
But China will never abandon North Korea, unless NK attacks China directly. They'll continue to support them in any way possible, within reason, to ensure the communist stronghold on the peninsula.
Communism? Seriously? No. The main reason is that China doesn't want all those hungry, huddled masses streaming North over the border.
A darker reason: we in the West tend to think 'asians' are homogeneous (ironically, due to our racism), but the various Chinese ethnic goups are just a tribal as us White Devils, if not more so, and would prefer to keep the Koreans at arms reach in perpetuity.
Robert Oppenhiemer was horrified by what he helped create. I assume during working on it, he justified doing so due to the goal of defeating a force of evil. I assume the current generation of worker bees think the same way. Or they're just jingoistic sociopaths.
... disable location services on your phone. You're giving data to a public database and then crying about privacy... just don't give them information.
You are assuming here that you have complete and total control of your phone, completely impervious from overrides by the greasy carriers and their state security handlers.
Does Adobe even ever get wrist-slapping fines for being one of the Horsemen of the Internet Apocolypse? They seem quite to content to write shit code and leasurely fix it when their excrement is pointed out.
sent by grocery clerks to collect a bill. Amazing what depths the halls of power will plumb when threatened with the exposure of their own corruption and stinking hipocracy.
Someone should contest this (along with warantless wiretapping, GPS tracking, etc) to the Supreme Court because this behavior should be unconstitutional.
A noble sentiment. Problem is, the current US Supreme Court in riddled with partisan ideologues that have no problem with corporations having human rights, the non-judicial killing of citizens, and especially police state surveillance systems.
This grand experiment in representative democracy is over. All we can hope for is bureaucratic incompentence to temper the increasingly ubiquitous tyranny.
USPS should be doing something along these lines: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postal_savings_system But, given that this would carve into the profits of the usurous payday loan pigs (in this 'Christian' country), not to mention the corrupt banks, this will never come to pass.
The fact that the "helium shortage" [forbes.com] is nonsense made up by bloggers that are dumb enough to think they are smarter than the market, but aren't quite dumb enough to put their money where their mouth is. America's proven reserves of helium will meet current demand for centuries. Unproven, but extractable, reserves are probably an order of magnitude higher. We are not running out of helium, at least not in this millennium.
Fracking *might* have the unintended consequence of liberating co-habitating helium that would otherwise be held. If they're generating millions of gallons of salt and chemical contaminated water, I don't think they'll give a care about wasting helium either.
'We're trying to determine how the surveillance radar information from the JLENS platforms can be integrated with existing systems in the National Capital Region'
I assume they lifted that phrase from the Politburo or the Peoples' Central Committee. [shudder]
This practice should be straight up illegal with real PMITA prison time for violations. Barring that, at the very least, all salary info older than five years is irrelevant and should be null, void, and undistributable.

They're already *at* the bottom.

China is working to become the Solar Saudi Arabia by both hook and crook.
I'm glad I avoided all this drama by only investing in tulip bulbs.

We _want_ them to use defective by design, ineffectual, costly systems that will blow up in their faces! Didn't you get the memo?
PS - The ISPs are kinda on our side here, as they'd rather not be wet nurses to trogoldytes and their business models.

Sue all the fucking HR departments that had no right to expose their financial information without explicit permission.
Somebody already ignored the advice and clipped off the second o in too.
Elect a woman as President; problem solved. She probably wouldn't want it anyway unless she was a simple puppet like Palin or Bachman.
If my salary info is in there, it's merely for comic relief.
