Have a fall and forget your password. What can they do?
I have complicated passwords and change them frequently. I tend to forget them if I have not used them in more than a week. "Sorry your honor, I have not logged in since this all started two months ago just to make sure there is no appearance of evidence tampering, and now I do not remember my password."
Simply put, nobody likes communicating with people who are.. well... difficult to communicate with. It's bad enough trying to overcome a language barrier in general conversation. It's even worse when you're trying to communicate a technical problem or make a complicated request. I don't want to have to spell out my email 3x in phonetic alphabet. Sometimes I can't even tell if the person I'm talking to actually understands my problem because everything they say is scripted.
Tell me about it. I hate calling tech support and getting people in Alabama.
Part of the carbon cycle is burning the hydrocarbons that the trees create. The carbon does not go "right back into the atmosphere". It takes a long process. Unless humans are burning them.
I am all for spending tax revenue on those who cannot afford health care instead of on bank bailouts, wars, school buses, and incarceration of potheads.
I am not in favor of spending tax revenue on health care for those with household incomes of 50k+ who say they cannot afford it because they have bigger houses and nicer cars than I do.
Of course, you can also elect to pay for it yourself. But, if you have ever seen what even basic healthcare costs in the U.S., you will realize this is impractical for anyone who isn't Bill Gates. A single emergency room visit could easily bankrupt even a moderately well-off individual. And don't even THINK about having surgery unless you've got a mansion to mortgage.
If you have a job that does not provide health insurance, they can probably still get it for you through their payroll processor and deduct it from your paycheck; then you do not even have to pay income tax on that money. You can get a family policy for under 10,000 USD per year. Have some money taken out pre-tax and put into an HSA to cover what you have to pay to cover your deducible. This will be about 4,000 USD per year for a family of four.
So, you can get health insurance for your family for 10,000 to 15,000 per year, and not have to pay much else.
Oh, you would rather have two cars, cable, and a big house than health insurance? That is your choice, stop whining to me about it.
The district is half poor and half middle class. The graduation rates have been falling and the costs increasing because they are busing the under-performing poor out to the schools in the middle class neighborhoods, building additions to those schools, and abandoning the schools in the poor neighborhoods. The middle class classrooms are being filled with disruptive under-performing students coming in, so the learning is harmed.
Why do they do this? If any particular school falls below a certain threshold, they lose some funding. So they shuffle things around to bring down the better schools to keep the poor ones above the threshold.
The result? Middle class flight, which decreases property values and thus tax revenue, and decreases graduation rates.
Why can we not do something differently? Because the poor population is primarily black and Hispanic, and the middle class population is primary white and Asian.
I refuse to make any appointment after 9:10 AM. If I cannot be assured that I will be seen reasonably on time, I will not go. Sadly, eventually doctors will catch on an do what the telephone company does: we will see you sometime between 8am and 4pm. If you are not here when you are called, you are skipped and charged a fee.

If a previously unreported stolen car is involved in a crime, they could go back a few days or weeks and find out where the car has been.
I cannot think of a reason to keep more than a few weeks of history.
It seems to have fixed the buzzing in the audio on a lot of live feeds that I experienced on the last 64-bit plugin (but not on the 32-bit one).
How would this law move jobs out of Texas?
Now I do not have to pay for streaming that I could not use anyway because I do not user Windows or OSX.
I just switched from 2 DVDs out + unlimited streaming for $15 per mo to 2 DVDs out and no streaming for $12 per month. Same service, lower price.
Thank you Netflix!
"found the rock in debris following a fire at an Anchorage museum in 1973" = "stole"

So cities do not have to pay out when pigs on cellphones hit people.
Or they just got sick of spending their money on disposable razors.

How does the carbon (which is no longer part of carbon dioxide) get back into the atmosphere?
Lobbyists are just people offering money. The problem is the people who take the money and the people who vote for those who take the money.

The consultants and bureaucrats involved with CityTime are committed to taking as much taxpayer money as they can.

It is about 17% of my take-home. It is a good use of that 17%.
What is the average family income after you remove those who already qualify for Medicare or Medicaid? That would be the pertinent number.

Unless it is a traffic violation.
Those 4.5% are probably unemployed because they are not good Engineers.

That is a steal! The district I pay taxes to spends more than $17,000 per student. And the graduation rate is less than 50%.

Man, I hate when doctors don't blow off emergencies to be on time to appointments made three months ago.
Because many customers/patients blame the vendor/doctor when the product or service is fine the the customer/patient is an idiot.
