I wouldn't trust anyone who uses Rudy Ghouliani for their TV spokesperson. He's one of the most dishonest ones out there. On par with most Republicans, but still one of the most dishonest.
He probably left the transmitter on all the time, and had a 5 watt or more transmitter. If he had a smaller, say 100 mw transmitter that he could send out a burst signal when he saw someone texting, or whatever, he may have not gotten caught, and more than likely would not have interfered with the cell tower.
I would vote for another Obama, as bad as he is, before I voted for a has-been former POW, or a Mormon capitalist whose main job was to destroy jobs, or even a former governor, who raised taxes on the regular people, while giving away tax dollars to corporations!
I have a brain, and it can tell me (at least on my regular routes) when there is a "stale" red or green light. I simply use this to calculate the speed I have to go in order to make the lights. It's also easy on my brakes and tires, because I don't have to use them so much.
Also, many lights are timed for the speed limit in the area. If you travel the speed limit, you will make many lights. If you speed up to the next light, and/or exceed the speed limit, you will get caught at subsequent red lights.
We need drivers with more training, and more brains, NOT more technology!
Absolutely correct!
I see it every day. People speed up to red lights, and don't signal when turning, etc. It's like they don't give a damn about anyone, or they have a suicide wish.
I bet that as with any large corporation, Dell is management heavy, and as usual, they will not get rid of many, if any, management positions. I have seen this in other places, and rather than consolidate upper management positions, getting rid of people making tons of money, they get rid of line workers, who make the least money.
Why they do this is beyond me.
One person's terrorist is another person's freedom fighter.
When they keep track of their people's whereabouts, they might as well be "keeping them from escaping."
No, we have to band together, and BUILD a new party, with a new vision.
Not something that is commercially funded like the teabagger party, but more along the lines of something where people actually have a say in things, like the Occupy movement.
And if you think that Occupy has went away, think again. They have been doing things under the covers since their physical occupation sites were taken down.
If anyone can change things, Occupy can.
CBS News has become Fox Lite. In recent times they have been instilling more fear in people, and been more opinionated on the right than ever. Once upon a time, they simply reported news. Today they are inserting corporate opinions into the news, and making it seem like they are "reporting." They seldom, if ever have the opposing view, and do not post corrections prominently when they are found to be wrong.
Yet another news source that has turned into a mere form of entertainment.
Burps are one thing, but isn't more methane produced when it passes through all four stomachs, and is expelled at the end of their alimentary canal?
If this is the case, I can think of quite a few humans who can be used for fuel, after a few pizzas and beers.
What we have now is what Mussolini defined as fascism. He said, "The definition of fascism is The marriage of corporation and state." That's EXACTLY what we have today. Corporations write the laws, they have rights just like people, only they can use them because money is now speech.
Oops! I got off on a rant there. I'll shut up now.
If we can build Elysium, why not go all out and just build a Ringworld for everyone.
The film's premise seems to be a smaller version of a ringworld, well a torus world, any way, and only for the 1%.
Larry Niven, are you watching/listening?
So tell me, if we all have to "claw our way up to the upper echelons of society" and "need to pay our fair share," how did people like George W Bush, Dick Cheney, "Panama" John McCain, and Mitt Romney claw their way up to the top, and what fair share have they paid?
I think that these debit cards are crap, and that people should once again have the option to be paid cash, or given the time off to go to the issuing bank, and cash their payroll check. Things used to work well this way. The only thing that is different today, is that there are too many greedy bass turds any more, who want EVERYTHING for themselves, and don't want to contribute to the common good of society after they have "paid their dues," and "clawed their way" up to the top. Too many people these days are saying, "I got mine, to hell with everyone else." This will not only kill us all, but make many of us suffer.

Campaign contributions... Isn't that how anyone in his position gets hired these days?
Well he still works for the lobbyists, because mark my words, he will be given a multi-million dollar job if he does okay by his corporate masters!

It's not like they are the least secure mobile OS out there. Let's make it easier for the bass turds making malware to grab naive people's money!
Shipping jobs overseas, is NOT routine housekeeping.

How about if you are a homeless person, with a smart phone, and want dinner for nothing.

How does one use soap in defense of liberty?
You don't have to register when you marry your sister either!

For that matter look at George W. Bush. He didn't have to plagiarize, he simply had daddy buy the papers.
