And beyond that, if this was all a trick to get him to stay in Russia, why did they leave him in the airport for 39 days on not just grant him a visa right away? It's also very fortunate that they were able to convince the US to cancel his passport at the right time...
When the Jello Biafra was on trial for distributing "Harmful Matter," it was because a poster of Giger's "Penis Landscape" was included in the Frankenchrist LP (Jello Biafra actually wanted to use it as the album cover, but his bandmates rejected that idea).
Yup, the letters all agree that if Rogozin controls NPO Energomash, payments must be blocked, but Treasury must "make an affirmative determination" that this is the case. Nothing compels them to actually make that affirmative determination.
Yes, they know that NPO Energomash is owned and controlled by the Russian Government. And yes, they know that Rogozin is the head of their space agency. But you could show them a cancelled check from Treasury with Rogozin's signature on it, and they still wouldn't be compelled to "affirmatively declare" that he was in control.
This is why I always keep pirated media and a bittorrent client that I can remotely activate on my phone. If it ever gets stolen, I won't bother the local police, I'll just activate the client and call the FBI.
The judge lauded the school's behavior and expressed her complete confidence in the school first, then she allowed the defendant (victim) to present his defense. But still, she's a judge so I'm sure she knows what she's doing and she can't possibly be biased in any way. After all, if in her unbiased opinion, the school has never done wrong before, I can't see why she would even need to ever hear evidence to the contrary.
No, I think it was the commission themselves, not Congress, that classified them as an "information service" when they COULD have called them a "telecommunications service." However, it is within the FCC's power to reclassify them and they don't need approval from Congress.
Given that the Commission has chosen to classify broadband providers in a manner that exempts them from treatment as common carriers, the Communications Act expressly prohibits the Commission from nonetheless regulating them as such.
Basically, the court just told the FCC that if they want to treat them as common carriers, all they have to do is classify them properly.

You're not typically connecting to ground based cell towers, and this report seems to indicate that at least some carriers can provide data over the ocean.
I'm not sure that a US domestic law would apply to the overseas portion of the flight. The airline may still have a policy prohibiting in-flight voice calls, but I don't think the law would apply.
Reality: it's specifically your job to understand these things on behalf of your clients(especially since the Lacey act is number two most important law related to your career).
Did you not even the third sentence? "To make matters worse, the Honduran law governing such shipments was not valid at the time of Huang's arrest---a fact that the Honduran government pointed out to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals. Nonetheless, the federal court found Huang guilty in March 2003 and imposed a two-year prison sentence." Huang's conviction of violating the "laws" (regulations, really) of Honduras was upheld, despite the fact that the Honduran court found that those laws were not valid at the time they were committed.
Beyond that, the very thesis of the site is that there are too many laws for anyone to understand. And your rebuttal is that they should have known anyways? The Lacey Act makes it illegal "to import, export, transport, sell, receive, acquire, or purchase in interstate or foreign commerce--- any fish or wildlife taken, possessed, transported, or sold in violation of any law or regulation of any State or in violation of any foreign law" (emphasis added). And "law" has been interpreted to include all regulations, not just "laws" passed by legislatures.
Do you know every single law and regulation related to fishing in every country? There's no master list that you can look up, and there is physically no way to know that no laws were broken unless you were physically present at every step of the process. Oh, and in this example, it doesn't really matter if the laws were repealed or overturned, either.
"A subsidy is a form of financial or in kind support extended to an economic sector..."
Direct payments are only one form of subsidy. I'm not arguing that we should or shouldn't offer tax breaks to one industry or another, I'm just suggesting that it is you who does not know what that word means. Offering a tax break for one activity over another favors the activity that has a lower effective tax rate.
> Oh, let me add, that this is not the minority. This is now the majority party of the house of commons.
Republicans are the majority PARTY, but it is just a slim margin on that party that is preventing the vote. The majority of the MEMBERS of the House would support a CR at current levels.
They are holding the country hostage because they are destroying EVERYTHING if they don't get their way on ONE piece of legislation. They have already failed to stop it 41 times.
It is NOT the majority of the House holding up the vote, it is the majority of the majority party holding up the vote. If the CR were up to a vote with no changes, the majority of the House would pass it. It is just a faction of one political party that is preventing the vote from occuring.
Remember the Ryan budget plan that was dismissed because it was so extreme? Due to sequestration, we're actually cutting discretionary spending now at a FASTER rate than the Ryan plan proposed. So we've got more budget discipline than the Republicans initially proposed (without raising taxes).
But after failing 41 times to repeal a law that has already passed and been reviewed by the Supreme Court, they are now holding the entire budget hostage. Oh, they're willing to pass a few things that their constitutents like the most, but they're goal is to basically burn everything else until Obama caves.
And don't forget, the majority of the House would very likely vote to pass a CR if it were put to a vote. However, the House is operating under the Hastert Rule. That means it's just a majority of Replubicans blocking this vote. It's a procedural trick that has allowed an extremist faction of one party to hold the entire House hostage.
The point is that i took a half hour to check the facts about the ULA terms of service , privacy policy , in other words , all the public documentation to verify if it's explicitly mentioned anywhere that they are actually scanning the content of the email.Unfortunately , i see this nowhere .

It was only TFA that called it a refund. What Apple actually said was "we're giving you the 'The Final Season' for free. Here is a credit to buy that season with, or if you'd like, buy anything else for that amount."
McCarthyism is similar to a witch-hunt, but it's not the exact same thing. A witch-hunt is the hysterical search for something that does not actually exist. McCarthyism refers to the making of unfair allegations without due process or legitimate investigative techniques. The fact that an unfair or random allegation may turn out to be true does not legitimize the justify the technique or removal of due process. Both techniques involve terrorizing innocent citizens.
Were someone to go into a ghetto and slay all the black males between the ages of 14 and 21, they would certainly kill a few criminals along the way. That doesn't make it any less unfair to all the innocent people who are not committing crimes.
Also, the First Amendment clearly makes it perfectly acceptable to hold and express alternative politcal and economic opinions from the ruling class. McCarthy not only (randomly) targeted government employees, he also went after film makers, writers, teachers, and other American citizens.
A small number of the hundreds arrested or tens of thousands who lost their jobs may have actually had Communist sympathies, the vast majority of those terrorized by McCarthy had done nothing wrong. Simply being accused was usually all it took to lose your job and be added to a no-fly^H^H^H^H^H^Hblacklist.
