There is a "License To Sell Merchandise By Online Auction On Consignment" requirement for business, or wording like that. I was walking along a storefront and saw the license in a frame, clearly in plain view, showing the $135 (or so) license fee.
This city requires a license to have a jukebox, to have music played (in addition to ASCAP, BMI or SESAC), and anything else the control board lets them get away with.
New York's favorite legislator Felix Ortiz is trying to get this going in this state with the "blow with the straw in the steering wheel mounted device" law. I remember something about having them calibrated twice a year, too. Sounds like ol' Felix is trying to inure the auto repair lobby a bit.
It's different when dealing with those convicted of DWI, but...
...a failed cable TV experiment with interactive boxes? Even venerable game show host Bill Cullen did a one-off game show in Columbus called How Do You Like Your Eggs?
If it's like Buffalo Wi-Fi which covers some portions of downtown and other locations in the city of Buffalo, content such as porn, MP3s, securities trading sites or sites containing large downloadable files are not accessible.
I figure, it's only fair, as they have limited bandwidth, and they own the pipe, so they can control what goes through it. I remember trying to download a small tarball through SourceForge Download Service, and I could get there, but Ibiblio was blocked because of "bandwidth issues."
This may be the compromise solution everyone is looking for to make free municipal Wi-Fi accessible as a minimal way to get folks on the net.
I have made an effort to secure my wireless network on the Westell VersaLink DSL box Verizon sent me. I do that by changing the ESSID and not broadcasting it, using WEP encryption, changing the broadcast channel and using MAC filtering to allow only my PCCard adapter and my fiancé's card for her laptop.

I will sometimes see an unsecured network with the ESSID of NETGEAR, just as though someone took their unit out of the box. (I just did a check and NETGEAR was still there!)
My feeling about someone using an unsecured private Wi-Fi network is like walking into another's dwelling without permission whose doors are unlocked: it's still a crime, but the victim may be partly found liable for any civil action he may bring.
The work of Jacob Markowitz at Allen Organ Company in 1939, the first electronic organ. See here for more.
I always liked how they were using digital sampled sounds back in 1971.
As another veteran, I feel it's too bad they had to do that in such a sneaky way, or elseyou may have had a cause of action for discrimination based on veteran's status.
The way that worked was to go to neighbors and get the information. Often times that was sufficient to get what was needed. I found myself having to do that to get Census information on someone, most of the time because they worked odd hours, so we performed a proxy interview because of negative contacts.
Theoretically, the civil fine for not answering questions is $100 per question refused. Criminal refusal can be punished by a fine up to $500 per question, although the Census Bureau only has sought criminal convictions twice.
One of the convictions is U.S. v. Rickenbacker from 1960 or 1961, appealed to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals and the conviction was upheld.
Folks forget that it is constitutional for Congress to pass laws (13 USC 1 et seq.) which regulate the Census, just as an "actual enumeration" is required; the courts consistently uphold this.
Tell Congressfolks like the libertarian Ron Paul about your concerns. --
How would this affect Juno Webmail users?

My father quit using Juno's dialup software as the closest number is a regional toll call.
So far, there appears to be no problem with his Juno Webmail access (well, besides the slowness of it all). --
As far as life in western New York goes, only geothermal "kinda" works. The price tag of drilling that deep (typically $10 / foot) precludes that kind of investment except for the folks here with more money. But it is done. --
I wonder how attached to CPRM IBM, Matsushita, Toshiba and Intel would be if all of their Software Engineers, Hardware Engineers, System Administrators, Project Managers, and Helpdesk folk ditched work for a month or two (or even a couple of weeks).
Then you will have just permanently given your job away to the more motivated H-1B immigrant who won't play games like that.
Many of you are more expendable than your egos allow you to think. Start thinking about what real job skills you have other than playing with computers and you may find there's not much else there. --
Let's say you have no interest in the "product" generated by Big Media. CPRM being disabled may not be that big of a deal...
Except...
As an example, let's explore the liklihood of, say, scientific or medical data captured by an instrumentation device running Linux. What would be the liklihood of a byte pattern of your "licit" file being misinterpreted as "illicit" and being altered or
lost? If there are maybe six bytes that have to be in a precise sequence of 256,1 / P(256, 6) = 3.7687E-15, which would be the chance of data misinterpretation. I would dare say that the liklihood of electromechanical drive faliure in both the original hard drive(s) and the backup media would be greater than that.

It looks like "Mostly Sunny" for where I live to get good results with a box with the necessary hole and cutout made. Then digital pictures may be able to be taken of the image and posted for all to enjoy.
Right now, there is that dreaded "lake effect snow" everybody talks about in the Great Lakes region. --
It looks more like an M109 series 155mm howitzer. They are a little different than tanks in that they use an aluminum alloy for "armor" and howitzer armament is optimized for indirect fire over much longer distances.
And now you know why field artillery is called "The King Of Battle." --
But errors in databases like the Army Master Data File still occur.
I had to explain how an engine oil dipstick for a Detroit Diesel 6V53 engine, used in APCs, cost $113. The unit motor sergeant didn't figure it out either, but told me to order it anyway.
I contacted the folks near Harrisburg to report it and was told that another soldier already did. (Darn, no reward!) --
A lot of M$'s tech support is provided by Client Logic. They have a boiler room in Buffalo and other cities where a lot of my friends worked there as a "rite of passage" before getting burned out and moving on. --
And if you would bother reading the rest of that sentence in the Constitution, you would find there is a clause that allows Congress to establish any other use for Census data. --
12 folks on a short form does take a while to do. The enumerator has to pull two continuation forms out of his/her bag.
One of our enumerators in our crew, the crew leader's wife, had a house with eighteen folks... with a long form. She finished up after two visits and a total of 3.5 hours.
My pop count record was nine, at the house across the street from the 18-person house. Fortunately, it was a short form. --
As another one of those enumerators out there having fun in places from around my residence near Jamestown, NY to exotic places like Peabody, MA, I can tell you what happened...
We went to your neighbor and got as much as possible. --

I think of LAPACK as being much more up-to-date for benchmarking.
