basically he was asked to write-up a document detailing how the GOP could more effectively communicate with bloggers to get the conservative message out there, and he got paid a couple hundred for it. It's not like they were "buying" him with a couple hundred when he's already a conservative activist (which is why he's blogging in the first place.)
This whole story is just ridiculous. Not one person has said "I got paid to write story X" except an unnamed source who claims it happens all the time.
they have everyone calling their line of personal computers "Macs" and every other company's products "PCs," despite the fact that the differences at this point are superficial.
While I don't doubt Apple does little to dissuade people of this, I remember when this started, and it wasn't with Apple. PC users used it derisively to play down Macs in the early/mid 90's.
it looks like that is a problem with Exchange, and has nothing to do with the iphone (other than the person who actually took screenshots of the Flash SMS uses an iphone, not surprising given most phones have no way to take screenshots:)
you jest, but that's essentially what congress has been doing for a long time. The health care bill essentially said "all these things will happen by this date" without detailing how they would happen. All of the details were handed over to HHS to work out on their own. Basically it was so vague (deliberately so) that the real effects won't be known until after HHS finishes figuring out how to implement it.
uh, there are names in the wikileaks postings. Several news outlets, including the Washington Post, have searched the released docs and found names that weren't redacted:
wikileaks didn't scrub the docs thoroughly, even the founder of wikileaks is basically saying "hey, not our problem!" He's not denying it, I find it interesting you are.
The sanitized version in papers had names blacked out, but the actual leaked docs were basically unedited. The Taliban has already announced they're using it to compile a list of people to kill.
I'm pretty sure HTML5 can access your camera and mic, although I'm not 100% on that. They can also work when you're offline, using the iPhones built-in caching.
not really trying to defend the mom, but the guy's criminal record doesn't seem to contain any sexual crimes. just because someone has a DUI doesn't mean they can't be trusted with kids.
For all we know his convictions are from a long time ago and he's been clean since the mom has known him.
the Evo is the first Android phone I seriously considered over the iPhone, due to the fact that it's the first to really minimize the horrible lag in the UI. However the 2 points that made me get the iPhone 4 are
1) Battery life. The Evo has a battery larger than the iPhone, yet battery life is terrible compared to the iPhone. 2) Screen. Yes it's bigger on the Evo, but the color representation isn't as good. I put an Evo and an iPhone side by side and loaded up the same image, the Evo's looked flat and dull, the iPhone had rich colors and just looked flat out better.
I love the customizability of Evo, several coworkers have tricked theirs out and I am truly jealous. But what good is a device I can customize if when I reach for it to actually use it the battery is dead?
my iphone goes for days without charging. my iphone 4 will go even longer. evo is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEIA_lMwqJA
I'm glad Android exists, I really am. I just wish you Android fanboys could recognize that some people prefer the iphone for completely logical reasons.
"No, I haven't become what I hate. You don't see me supporting an abusive, shitty company so I can have a trendy, overpriced device."
you don't see how self-righteous that is? you're better because you followed your own reasons for buying the device you did, but you hate those who don't follow your reasons?
the fact that I was modded as a troll while you got +5 just backs up my opinion that Android fanboys are turning viciously rabid.
no, he's totally correct. I've been noticing this over the past year, Android fanboys are far more annoying and "emotionally attached to their overrated device" than any iphone user I've meet. It's only getting worse with the Droid and Evo. My rational reasons for choosing the iphone over the Evo are roundly ignored and I'm labelled a mindless apple fanboy.
I don't slap Google stickers on my car and blindly claim my device is superior to all others.
no, you just publicly proclaim yourself to be better than all others. my iphone isn't superior, it's just a better fit for my uses. if android is a better fit for you that's great.
even if you pull all the money spent on stuff like this across the entire world it probably amounts to less than 0.01% of all the money spent on researching disease cures. It'd be a drop in the bucket. Or we can spend that drop making a dying kid's wish come true.
what's the point of living a long life if you can't bring happiness to someone else?
I wish I could mod you up. The feedback on the wii controllers really makes the system useful. I sort of thought it was a gimic but it really does make it feel like you're more in control. natal/kinect just feels like you're flailing about wildly.
I expect Sony's system will outperform Kinect for precisely this reason.
I don't think nostalgia has much to do with it as this point. I loved the NES/SNES and still own both, but I look at nintendo's newest stuff I don't see much in common other than it's great for casual game play. There will always be more casual gamers than hardcore gamers, so nintendo will always come out ahead. There's a reason MS and Sony are trying so hard to compete with the Wii, because they have the hardcore gamers and there's no where for them to go now.
the playstation was released in 1994, and I don't see nostalgia helping the PS3 any.
the default service plan is 1 year, not 1 month. The apple service plan you can buy extends that to 3 years. Note that you can buy the extended plan at any point in the first year. also note that this is basically the exact same plan Best Buy offers on the machines they sell.
as another poster mentions, the ram is user upgradeable by design.
if your electronic underwear won't sync with the server check your IP settings. Then make sure the portscanner is working. In the event of a total failure feel free to use the finger utility. Just be sure to zip up after you're done.
by "cleansed" I assume you mean "clicked Block next to their name"? It's a pretty simple system really, one that seems to show Google did think about how to block "stalkers, spammers and other assorted gentry".
would it really be that hard for the editors to add a blurb saying what prestashop is to the submission?

as compared to Flash's amazing performance on a Mac?

Tons of dumb, mindless violence. There is some sort of story, about how you went to hell to save some soul of some something or something.
Lots of just blowing away demons though, and lots of ridiculous weapons.

you can get a stylus for the ipad. several of the artists I work with have them for their ipads.

google ported quake to html5:

so to answer your first question: yes.
I'm pretty sure HTML5 can access your camera and mic, although I'm not 100% on that. They can also work when you're offline, using the iPhones built-in caching.

the problem comes about when your hand shorts the two metal bits together. Put a case on them and you won't short them.

you left off the most important part: no contract.
and yet they were discussing deleting this data just this summer, rather than hand it over to a FOI request. curious.
