If 1 person produces one tire. Sure. I suspect that is not what happens. Let's say the curing time is 5 hours and it takes 10 minutes to pour a mold and stuff it in the curing chamber.
So the logical way to handle this is employees pour the molds and they are stuffed into the curing chamber #1. Every hour that chamber is locked up and time tagged and not opened for 5 hours. That employee then pours more molds and they are put in curing chamber #2. At the top of the hour that chamber is locked up for 5 hours. Then the employees start pouring molds for chamber #3. Rinse and repeat until chamber #5 has sat for 5 hours. That chamber is emptied, the tires extracted from the molds and the molds are distributed back to the mold pourers so they can use that on their 7th set.
The story in question, Titan was approached and asked to buy a tire production plant that the current owner was going to shut down within the year because the plant was running in the red.
The reason BF3 runs at all on a 360 or PS3 is because model detail was reduced for the console versions and multiplayer modes have a cap of 24 players rather than 64 players.
Contamination only matters if the crop contaminated is being grown for seed rather than as food or some other purpose. Crop that is grown for seed is generally rigorously controlled if done in a large mass and often time the seed from the outer plants of the field will be discard due to contamination risk anyway. Keep in mind that you need 1 seed to grow a plant and most plants produce far more than 1 seed so you can probably safely discard 50% and still end up with enough seed to grow at least a 100 times as many crops as you had planted to generate seed.
If you're truly worried about cross-contamination then you simply grow the plants in a controlled environment.
there's also the matter of mods: Skyrim, say, throws enough state around that the PS3 teeters on the brink of falling over at any moment. However, on a sufficiently punchy PC, the actual game engine doesn't start running into (more serious than usual) stability problems until you throw substantially more cluttered gameworld at it.
That's why you mod Skyrim so that bodies take a longer time to disappear... like say 30 days instead of 10 and you crank down the cell respawn time from 10/30 days to 2/3 days.
Or you install the mod that summons maggots... hundred of writhing maggots.....
Slashdot has a problem of seeing the forest through the trees. They get so wrapped up on the piracy and copyright infringement parts that they completely ignore the aiding and abetting.
How is it equal treatment for heterosexual registered couples to receive preferential treatment of unregistered heterosexual couple or even individuals who aren't in a registered couple?
Also, the notions of left and right, conservative and liberal vary wildly from one society to the other. From our point of view, both major parties in the US are right-wing. The Democratic Party compares to right-wing parties in my country. For the Republicans, we don't even have an equivalence, most of what they say sounds nuts to us.
Left or Right is always relative to the country you're talking about. Anyone who suggests otherwise just has an axe to grind. Anything that approaches philosophy and morals is.
I'm not sure I would compare bypassing islands in the pacific that were cut off from Japanese reinforcements on the same degree as using a maneuver to cut off or otherwise place pressure on the enemy's force. In the Pacific, if I remember correctly, skipping those islands was a trivial matter since we had naval and air dominance by that time. So there was no point wasting troops on islands that had little to no strategic values, like the Philippines.
Landings like that had been conducted in WW2 in the Mediterranean during Sicily by Patton when he made his drive from Palermo to Messina. So there's definite preexisting work that had been done regarding using amphibious landings to cut off enemy forces. In Patton's case, the landings were done with smaller detachments that couldn't hold long and required the main body to punch through and join up rather than drop a corps behind enemy lines to relieve a defense.
Yes. Either because products are more expensive to product or because demand increases (thanks to more money to the consumer) and causes demand driven price increases.

$100k at a strip club in a single night? I could see that happening.
Hardly. Unless your servers are located in Illinois the bill is meaningless.
What this petition is doing is asking the White House to get Congress to repeal a law they passed to make the act illegal.

I'm a car driving goat, you insensitive clod.
I'll hand Bethesda a $60 roll of quarters that they can fuck their asses with when I buy their games.
They were asked to buy a tire factory that was going to close down because it was running in the red.
Growing garlic, drinking wine, eating cheese, and surrendering of course ;-)
Surrendering to gluttony?

To avoid needing to use said private space marine army.

Environmentally, organic vs GM shouldn't matter much. You're talking more or less the potential usage of pesticides.
Where crops have an impact environmentally is whether or not they are locally grown which is independent of organic vs GM.
They're called collateral damage.

They function as an accessory to a criminal act which may, in some jurisdictions, cause them to be charged with the crime they are an accomplice to.

Congressmen oppose having to state which part of the Constitution they are invoking when writing a law.
They hate this and say "We don't need to know if it's against the Constitution, that's the Supreme Court's job."

I was thinking Australian Cane Toad bombardment.
The US hasn't had a budget since some time in 2010. Last budget was passed in April 2009.
