There has been a lot of media coverage about "rare earth minerals", but sadly there is very little mention of just what they are. Anyone know a list of these minerals?
Damn right, musicians need to stop being so lazy and get out there and perform. Does the guy that designed or built your car get royalties every time you get in it? Does the guy that designed or made your clothes get royalties every time you wear them?
Nothing against artists, but they really need to get out there and perform more. Earn a living like everyone else you lazy bums.
I wonder if Simmons pays royalties to the designers and builders of his website?
Except that it isn't Jobs, he's a dork. I think all of the engineers and un-named employees at Apple would take exception to the perception that is being fabricated that the Dork is responsible for Apple's comeback.
As seems pretty typical of large corporations one person at the top takes credit for the brilliance of innovator's below.
Lawyers leaching off clients is not newsworthy. Title of the article should have been "WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON IN AMERICA?". FTA "prosecutors decided not to pursue criminal charges", "took pictures of students even while they were sleeping in their own bedroom".
Prosecutors, the FBI, and Judges are taking a big dump on the constitutional rights of individuals, and you're concern is what the lawyer earns off of this??? Americans are squandering their freedom and have no right to complain when they finally wake up and realize their Democracy is but a shadow of what it once was.
Horse apples! All Apple is saying is that they want to be the only ones to be able to infringe on third party rights. Steve Jobs self-righteous BS is just that. Look at the $650+ million judgment against them just last Friday.
If Apple is so concerned about third party rights they may want to start with leading by example. Steve Jobs is a fraud.
1. because that is too logical for moron politicians
2. leeches , er. lawyers need jobs too
3. that's such a populist/socialist idea only a backwards nation like China would do such a thing
4. war is good for the economy
5. all the above
Android gives users and developers a lot more freedom than other alternatives - with that comes responsibility for both parties. If you want a platform where you are told what to, when to do it, and whom you can do it to get an iPhone.
USPS's future lies in things that need to be delivered physically: shoes, computers and other objects, and the USPS has assets that could let it take on UPS and FedEx.
I could not disagree more. USPS's future lies in mail, e-mail to be more specific, they just need to step up to the plate and do what needs to be done. It's astounding that the USPS doesn't see the opportunity that is right in front of their eyes.
Prior to employment you can only measure Potential. Actual competency can only be measured when they actually perform their jobs. Keep the good ones, cut the bad ones loose.
As much as I love it when a billionaire faceplants, I would suggest that free-forever is not a sustainable business model either - lest those who produce the content are given free food, clothing and shelter.
Edison tried 3,000 times before he got it down, my guess is that Murdoch and his team are no less determined. One good thing to remember is that the more money he earns, the more money you could potentially earn.

I'd have no problem with the iPhone or the App store if you weren't such a PRICK, oh yeah and let me choose my own F*CKING phone company.

Where does the French government "earn" it money from? The French government isn't subsidising squat, the French people are.
This is perfect for propaganda peddlers, er news networks, now they can more easily deceive the public.

Hey if you're so dumb that a ruler gets the better of you, you don't belong in the gene pool.
Is about to become a lot more popular.
Wonder who had this brain fart?
Of course by the time it impacted it would be much smaller than 20 meters.
It's rather ironic that a leading thinker in 3 dimensional space has such a 2 dimensional mind set.
A: The USPTO looked in the mirror and found prior art!
Hmm never feel the wind on your face again, no more seasons, no more grilling steak on an open fire... I think I'd rather die here than live in space.

If it runs the same apps the droid runs it could be quite a brilliant outcome for both.

Why is mankind so obsessed with harvesting energy from the rarest sources in the universe? Why not start with the most abundant sources?
