That happened to me recently. Actually it was two dimes in one pocket that set off the machine. The process went a little like this: I got asked a few times what I had in my right pocket, waited for a male TSA employee to come over, waited for the TSA agents to stop bickering, got a quick patdown (including a few squeezes of my pockets), turned my pocket inside out, discovered two dimes, went on my way. All the while I was staring at an outline of my body with a couple of red squares highlighting the areas of interest.
My problem with the pornoscanners is twofold: they're extremely invasive and they're (potentially) dangerous. These newer machine address the first issue pretty well IMO, and as long as they're safer I'm pretty much satisfied. Now if only they could get rid of the bullshit liquid, gel, spreadable rules...
So? Bain Capital invests in companies that employ people overseas. Lots of companies do that. Do you invest in Apple? How about Intel or AMD? Do you own an HTC phone, or a smart phone at all? Even the US Government has invests in companies that close down US plants to open them up overseas. Obama "invested" in GM. GM has closed down plants in the US to open new ones in Mexico and other places overseas. Do you think that Obama "prefers to ship jobs off overseas than to invest in America."? It's the same thing, isn't it? Well, except that Obama is using American tax dollars to do it against our will. Bain used freely invested money from investors
The difference is that Apple's primary focus is not shipping companies overseas. The company that Bain invested in specializes in offshoring.
But the point is that you said "their own candidate for president prefers to ship jobs off overseas than to invest in America", which is something you can't back up because it's not true. You WANT to believe it so bad that you are actively silencing the the logic portion of your brain that is screaming, "why would Romney WANT to give American jobs to overseas workers? That doesn't make sense". It's sad when you have to lie to yourself to keep justify your beliefs.
"This company is competitive globally. They make a profit here. But Bain Capital decided to squeeze it a little further. That is not what capitalism is meant to be about," said Freeport mayor George Gaulrapp, 52, pictured.
So, yes, it seems to me that Romey prefers overseas jobs.
Google deserves no praise for this. The making of 'Innocence of Muslim' was likely illegal because the guy who made it was legally obligated to not use the internet for the duration of his probation. As other comments have pointed out, if someone was offended by this movie and wanted it to disappear a simple DMCA takedown notice would have sufficed. Instead, people invested in seeing conflict in the Middle East want this video up so that they can stoke the flames of anti-American sentiment. Google, with all of their idiotic policies, is playing right into this. Shame on all of you.
Mmm. Wrong. Modern ratchets (at least the higher end stuff) often have many more teeth than older ratchets. This allows them to be useful in more confined spaces. Both tools and expectations have indeed evolved. Someone who's used to the flexibility a new SnapOn Dual 80 ratchet afford probably wouldn't be super happy with an old 30 tooth model.
My ratchets will work on 1950s model cars, and I'm sure they'll still be useful on a 2050 model car.
Your ratchets, sure. Your sockets, not so much. Plenty of new types of fasteners have been introduced since the 1950s (TORX/E-TORX/TORX Plus, Pozidrive, metric hex stuff, etc).
What, you mean metric spanners and sockets (and before that SAE)? Seriously Volvo put perhaps more thought in how things come apart than most other manufacturers. With 80s Volvos if you've got a bolt and a nut, they're typically different sizes (ex 17mm + 18mm instead of 2x 17mm). The bonus here is you can use one set of tools.
Whitworth... now that's weird (unless you're Australian).
The killer feature for me was the integration with pdfsync. Write LaTex, hit compile, end up with an interactive PDF (click on some stuff and it'll take you back to the source in TextMate). It's fucking genius. Of course Preview.app did, and still does, have lots of problems with fonts in pdflatex generated PDFs.
On the older 3 series (E46) the driver's door lock was super easy to pick because of sloppy tolerances (apparently about 700EUR will buy you the tools you need to do it in a few seconds). Picking the lock is, of course, a lot more subtle than breaking a window... and will typically disarm the alarm too.
293 Americans were killed by falling furniture in the United States between 2000 and 2010. Since 9/11, 238 Americans have been killed in terrorist attacks.
We get it. You're a bigot and you hate Muslims. Call me when you start a war on furniture.
If my math is right, ING charges 0.031% of the amount you've overdrawn per day on overdrawn checking accounts. Some banks are worse than others, just like some credit unions are worse than others. Or as Morrissey put it, some girls' mothers are bigger than other girls' mothers.
Really? Bankrate.com lists the national average mortgage rate at 3.87% w/ a 30 year fixed, conforming loan. Patelco's current rate is 3.75% (3.822% APR) w/ no points. Chase is listing a 3.75% fixed, 30 year loan w/ 1.125 points at a 3.842% APR. NYU Credit Union is offering a 30 year, fixed, no points loan at 3.625% (3.650% APR).
So, yeah, credit unions can still be competitive... that's the reason why banks have fought tooth and nail to ensure that there are as many restrictions on membership as possible.
Interesting. Firefox 13 restores sessions just fine on both of my MacOS 10.7 machines (work) and my 10.6 machine (personal). SVG handling is still shaky, performance goes in the crapper after loading image heavy tabs, and the mouse cursor disappears from time to time on 10.7... but the session restore stuff works fine for me. Given how frequently I've got to restart Firefox compared to Chrome, I'd notice pretty quickly if it didn't.
Oh. Yeah. Safari should handle sessions without any plugins. Window -> Reopen all tabs or somesuch.
With an EBS backed root volume, take a snapshot, make volumes as needed and attach volume to a new instance. Or, make an AMI of the configured instance and make your instances from that new AMI.
Stanley owns Mac and Irwin. Most Craftsman hand tools are made by Danaher (now APEX). Both Stanley and Danaher make most of their hand tools in either China or Taiwan.
Craftsman tools in Canada have long been made in SE Asia, so it's only a pretty recent development that you can walk into a Sears store in the USA and see wall after wall of imported Craftsman branded tools. Stanley has been making tools overseas for decades under their own brand. In any case, it's becoming increasingly difficult and expensive to find tools that aren't made in SE Asia. Oh well.
Did you even bother to read, well, anything other than your bullshit tea bagger propaganda? The link you provided is nothing but failed reading comprehension and awful scare tactics. High property taxes even with Prop. 13? Two percent of a McMansion in Malibu is still going to be a lot more than a twenty percent tax levied on a yurt in Oklahoma. Blame big government. lawl.
The link I provided broke out the taxes into excise and other taxes. So that's state+federal excise taxes plus other things like "environmental fees, storage tank taxes, other fees or taxes, and general sales tax" for a combined rate of forty-eight and six tenths cents per gallon. That's also based on the API's February 2012 prices.
If you want to look at the link that you provided, go ahead. The fear mongers come up with higher numbers that aren't directly comparable to the ones I provided. Look at the API data the tea baggers use. California's at 69.0 cents (same #2 rank) per gallon, with an average of 49.5 cents. Per the link you posted, including DC, the only state with less than 30 cents per gallon in combined taxes is Alaska.
So, no California does not charge fifty cents more per gallon of unleaded gasoline in taxes than most states.

You get billed until you stop the instance. Stopping is the equivalent of powering it down. Terminating is the equivalent of deleting it
Because that cable operator also provides phone service.
