How about French Media pay Google to be included in any search results? This could also work for the MAFFIA. Unless they pay Google to be included in search results, no movie or song promotion would be listed.
The suicide rate at Foxconn is still lower than that of the general population in China, but striking for its concentration among a group of workers at a single company
Why should any company, electronic or otherwise, actually have a statistic for a Suicide rate? I can understand such a rate for a general population but for an actual company?
For all parents who are objecting to this (I would be too if my daughter was subjected to this), simply start up a fundraiser for some Student RFID blocking wallets. After all, we want our children to grow up knowing the responsiblity of owning an actual wallet, right?
I live in San Diego and on Monday,October 1st, the local Chevron was 4.09. When I got home, it was 4.19. When I woke up on Tuesday, it was already 4.29. Yesterday, it was already 4.89. Big Oil is saying that a refinery that is responsible for 8% of production, a power outage and the switch from Summer blend to Winter blend (appearently there is different additives during the year) is causing the spike. People out here believe there is gouging going on while the local independent stations are shutting down as they can not afford to buy the gas. That in turn means you can only buy from Big Oil.
The only two differences between this product and NeverWet are 1. This product is available now (sort of) while we have to wait a few months for the latter and 2. You have to send in your gadget to Liquipel HQ? Sorry, I would rather wait for the stuff to come out to the market than to trust sending my electronics somewhere to be coated.
I can start a debate on whether the Great Flying Spaghetti Monster is regular pasta, whole wheat grain variety or both? Or would this fall under the school's nutrition program?
RAMEN!
The extra overhead to deal with multiple coverage policies based on the actuarial cut-off of 25 or the additional cost for one-size-fits-all policies for everyone is the reason those under 25 can't rent cars in the US. Not because they're not adults, but because it's a completely undeniable fact that, on average, they have poorer judgment and are less trustworthy with expensive machinery and the lives of others than those who are over the age of 25. Yes, the cut-off is arbitrary, but if you make a distinction you have to make it somewhere. It takes too much time, effort, and expense to determine on a case-by-case basis who is a moron and who is not.
Based on that argument, it means that the 23 year old military pilot flying the 100 million dollar fighter jet can not rent a 30 thousand dollar car
I am just trying to figure out when Patton Oswalt became the authoritative opinion on geek culture. I thought Geek culture was always evolving, learning new things before anyone else knew what it did. To me, its just one opinion of a comedian
as how they responded. They were rude and insulting and she just asked for a donation to a local college. To respond in the way they did anyone would be upset and, out of principal, take legal action. They could have just said, sure we'll make the $130 donation and be happy, but they had to insult her instead. The magazine should donate 10 times the amount and fire the editor.
What is even worse is the discussions that are going on the magazines Facebook page. Someone posted her actual address (taken down) to homophobic AIDS filled rants. I know it might seem odd but maybe the editor legimately thought the Internet was public domain and is now paying for her mistake. But the personal attacks is just childish
Parody has a very specific legal definition. IANAL but basically if you make some kind of derivative work that doesn't actively parody the object it's being derived from then it's just ripping off it's fame and style and you're not protected as a parody.
MacGruber is a parody... Micky Mouse pooping on GWB's head is not a parody.
Then explain how Robot Chicken uses the parody defination?
What happened in the Court case was (from Wikipedia but my friend was the actual lawyer representing the Slesinger family in this case)
On 19 February 2007 Disney lost a court case in Los Angeles which ruled their "misguided claims" to dispute the licensing agreements with Slesinger, Inc. were unjustified,[20] but a federal ruling of 28 September 2009, again from Judge Florence-Marie Cooper, determined that the Slesinger family had granted all trademark and copyright rights to Disney, although Disney must pay royalties for all future use of the characters. Both parties have expressed satisfaction with the outcome.
So if a person was to buy this off of eBay and then give it as a gift to the Amish, could that be allowed? The internet connection requirement is satisfied as it is "in transport" but I am not sure if the gift receiever is under any contract to hook it up to a connection
So given the above information, would you please outline how you would explain this to children?
Step 1: Teach them critical thinking, instead of doctrine.
Step 2: There is no step 2.
Children should learn to think. With regard to controversial topics like copyright law or health care legislation, they should be encouraged to seek broad resources and to judge for themselves. They should never, under any circumstances, be indoctrinated into any belief. Not even beliefs about fair use, of which I am a rabid supporter.

But I personally wouldn't be travelling to "finalize a deal" in a foreign country, no you can just mail me the paper work.
Well, considering his Mother is actually going to be coming to the US to finalize the deal...
There's someone out there that sees the RIAA as credible?
Of Course! The MPAA

Personally, I am just waiting for Nintendo to file a good sized Copyright suit against them, in JAPAN

Odd, I just cant imagine the 3rd DOCTOR to be rambling on with this bot called PARRY.
Why do I have a feeling there will be an announcement for Internet Explorer 204634?

To be honest, I am just waiting for the Movie to come out of Hollywood, if that is even possible
