77 years at $65,000/year. You can buy a house and a car in cash and avoid paying a huge chunk in interest.
I HATE being in debt, but at the ridiculously low mortgage rates now, you'd most likely make more paying a mortgage and investing the money instead.. Even with some of the save investments, CDs presumably will come back from the 1% doldrums, and there are dividend paying stocks where I think you can beat out the mortgage rate you're paying (you obviously also gamble that the stock price won't go down, and have to take into account the tax on dividend interest you earn).
Well, if they were still copyrighted in their home countries, I do see it being "fair" to make them copyrighted in the U.S. too⦠to hopefully attain the goal of making the copyrights universal.. (Which my layman's interpretation is what the Berne Convention did.)
Can you give examples where this has happened? The only case I know of where this happened was with "It's a Wonderful Life", and AFAIK, it was copyrights on the *music* that caused it to "not" be public domain anymore. I put that in quotes because I presume if you could make a copy of the movie with ALL of the music removed, that would still be public domain. Please clarify if that's wrong.
The following are examples of situations in which the transfer will not result in a âoechange in ownershipâ and thereby avoid the dreaded re-assessment for property tax purposes. â¦. 4. Parent-child (or grandparent-grandchild) transfer
Maybe it happened in your case, but it shouldn't've.
It probably doesn't meet your criteria (even though you can turn off anything that runs in the background that eats the battery), but you can now use the iPhone on Virgin Mobile.
Couldn't figure out how to tile windows for Metro apps (except to put two alongside each other with a bizarre 80:20 screen split)
Yeah, from what I've read in reviews, that's all you can do. (Though the reviewer also mentioned the small screen split, like you do, which is apparently smaller than how MS describes the split as being.. weird.)
I may be wrong, but does't Windows RT also fall under the banner of "Surface", and thus probably will not be able to run the same applications that the customers are currently running? And, if so, what, then, makes Surface the solution?
Not just "probably", definitely. RT doesn't run the apps you already have, so you'll need new apps. They give you a limited version of Office, but the reviews ding it for not having Outlook.
I'm not saying they can't have similar OSes for the "backwards compatible" and "not backwards compatible" versions if they want to, but I think this will cause huge confusion among the masses (and even positive reviews I've read of it have had those sentiments).
4) Improved out-of-the-box multi-monitor support (it's been likened with Ultramon, but without requiring third-party software).
Can you give more details on this, and if you know how Macs do multiple monitors ("it just works", and has since what, the early 1990s), compare/contrast the new parts with that?
You can buy a "lifetime" subscription to Tivo.. lifetime of the device. If you amortize how long it's likely to last, it can easily be cheaper than a cable box with what most agree is a FAR worse UI. Plus, you can't download from your cable box (you can on a TiVo, nonprotected shows, which for MOST people is everything but premium channels like HBO).
You don't need to finalize all types of DVD. e.g. DVD-RAM. My non-Tivo recorder does DVD-R, DVD-RW, and DVD-RAM. DVD-RAM performs just like a small hard drive.
Before the mid-80's, no one thought of putting the language to cover home video into their licensing contracts. That's why most of the issues come from shows and movies from before then.
I don't know the exact details, but the final episode of "The Prisoner" has the Beatles' "All You Need is Love" in it. Even on home video. Somehow they had gotten a perpetual, all media license for it way back then.
SNL regularly doesn't post sketches that involve music in some way.
Is the musical guest posted? I don't know.
A similar issue I see (or rather, don't hear), is that I listen to the NBC Nightly News audio podcast, and virtually any segment that is sports or entertainment related is cut. (Not EVERY time, just the vast vast majority of the time.) So I still download the podcast, but Tivo it too and FF through it quickly to see if I missed anything. I haven't checked the video podcast version, but I have noticed sometimes they're different lengths, so if they post it in video but not audio, that's even stranger.
This seemed to happen for a long tim with the ABC Nightline podcast, but seems to have not happened regularly for a long time.
(I'd pay a *small* amount for these podcasts, if they were always complete and definitely always updated.)
The shame about this sketch is that it was actually one of the funniest ones I've seen in a while. (I do NOT mean that in a "SNL sucks, it used to be better" way that many people parrot either.. Watch *entire* episodes of whenever you thought it was better, and there is a similar amount of good to dud sketches.)

BTW, if it's $5 million after taxes, that'd still be $50K/year without getting out of bed at current 1% CD rates. Most people could live on that.

What about the FIRST PERSON to invent the toaster?
Was that not worthy of a limited government granted monopoly?
What if someone makes the toaster toast twice as quickly, but the result is just as good?
Did you actually READ that site?

Did you actually read that page? It says that inheriting a house should not raise the property tax.
Why did your property taxes go up? They shouldn't've.
http://calestateplanning.blogspot.com/2010/03/property-taxes-and-prop-13.html
WAAAAAIT a second. Don't the children get to keep the same tax valuation for Prop 13 when they inherit a house?
(The first result of my google searches, http://calestateplanning.blogspot.com/2010/03/property-taxes-and-prop-13.html, does say that "it is not necessarily true that the value of the home will be re-assessed for property tax purposes".)
It probably doesn't meet your criteria (even though you can turn off anything that runs in the background that eats the battery), but you can now use the iPhone on Virgin Mobile.
So 100 million "useless" devices, and that's just iPads, have been sold?
(BTW, I don't own an iPad or any other tablet.)
Yeah, from what I've read in reviews, that's all you can do. (Though the reviewer also mentioned the small screen split, like you do, which is apparently smaller than how MS describes the split as being.. weird.)

So it sounds like *right now*, the weight is the only benefit for you, right?
I presume you don't have the keyboard dock?
Asus Vivo Tab RT is 1.2 pounds (2.3 pounds with keyboard dock)(*), the newest iPad is 1.44 pounds for WiFi(**).

My under 12 what?
Can you give more details on this, and if you know how Macs do multiple monitors ("it just works", and has since what, the early 1990s), compare/contrast the new parts with that?
Why don't you charge him $20 to burn a CD?
I bet he'll learn really quickly, or else you'll make money/he'll find some other shlub to keep asking.
So if a dumb person gets hit by a bus, does that mean that the bus is a human de-Gausser?

Oops, of course, I meant watch the recording of it afterwards.
Not really, since he apparently was unable to *stream* it, I showed him a way to watch it live afterwards. Streaming it didn't involve iTunes.
It's available as a podcast. You can download the video there free. Search for "Apple Keynotes" in iTunes.
