Poor sound in live recordings is almost always due to the shitty mix that includes all the audience noise and some omni stage mikes to get that 'live' sound. Direct soundboard recordings can sound very good.
The reason bags are searched and people patted down at concerts, sports events, etc. has less to do with actual security than it does with liability of the venue. If something were to go down, they have legal standing for claiming they were not negligent and did 'everything they could to prevent incident'.
I have been doing exactly that for years, and I always urge anyone that will listen to me to do the same. It's an easy thing to do, it certainly can't make matters worse and if enough people start doing it, will send a clear message to politicians that they have an expiration date and should therefore make their time in office count for something other than themselves.
Interesting theory, and it makes some sense given the timing and pricing. If BBY pays AAPL per subscriber with minimal upfront costs then it's almost no risk.
Not mine by choice, but none of this should come as a surprise to anyone that's been awake in class. Tax dollars have been used to purchase access to commercial databases for their data mining pleasure for years now. A complicit Supreme Court allows them to go onto private property to plant tracking devices on vehicles, ISP's and telco's roll over and provide whatever they ask (for a fee, of course), and the list goes on. The new handbook codifies everything they've already been doing, just to create a more favorable legal footing when challenged in court.
"The authorization process noted by the FAA allows the operator to use iPad and the Jeppesen Mobile TC App as the sole reference for electronic charts, even during taxi, takeoff and landing. "
Won't someone think about the children? Really, I'm not kidding. People create other people for a variety of reasons, but nobody really considers the ramifications of their actions, they just want a 'family'. If you were able to prove to someone their children would have a substantially lower standard of life than they enjoy right now, do you really think that would stop them?
Within reason, sure. I don't expect a teardown of an F35 to be posted to youtube, but I do remember the days when reporters were able to film and actually, you know, report on the goings-on in war zones.
Public employees' work should be transparent to the people that pay their salaries, period. It is ironic how the police and law enforcement in general want cameras on all of us, but shine the spotlight on them and they cry foul.
Crazy like foxes...as you've also found in class actions, attorney's fees make up a disproportionate amount of the settlement. If anyone thinks these guys are doing this to protect and serve the rightsholders, they haven't been paying attention in class.
I made the mistake of renting it, only realizing it was a mistake about 15 minutes in. To feed my masochistic tendencies I forced myself to watch the whole thing, nearly resorting to eyelid speculums towards the end.
I find it amazing that anyone that worked on that film would allow their name to be shown in the credits. I would be ashamed to admit I swept the soundstage floor, never mind wrote the screenplay.
Having been on both sides of this nasty fence, and currently a FTE, I am simply biding my time until I can go back to contracting/consulting. I took this gig because it's stable, pays relatively well for the market, is usually enjoyable, and I don't have a ton of BS to deal with. Still, it's temporary. After two or three years in almost any environment I'm bound to grow increasingly stale, and I've already begun to feel some of that.
And it's not just picture issues, but as TFA mentioned there are sometimes sound problems that go uncorrected for long periods. I drastically reduced my movie-going years ago when I realized I could invest a few grand at home, and come pretty darn close to the theater experience, in some cases surpass it. If I'm paying $10-$15 for a movie ticket, I expect a properly calibrated projector and sound system. Oh and let's all be surprised at once that Sony locks down their pro equipment even tighter than the consumer shit.
I tried it a few times, and working alone was no time saver. With another person to take the item and bag it after I scanned it, the process went considerably quicker but that defeats the purpose, and I can't always have someone to help me...
It's already precedent that your cell phone and it's contents are fair game in Michigan, and their cops have been sucking down that data during routine traffic stops.
That makes perfect sense, but our slightly ghetto AP's (HP V-M200) apparently don't have that feature. We only experienced the duplicate IP issue, but that was trouble enough...
This problem has existed for a long time, I'm surprised it took this long for somebody to start paying attention. I dropped Android devices from my company's network months ago because of these issues.

There are also a good number of restaurant coupons, at least in my area. I've used a couple and have been very pleased. If I like the place I'll be back, otherwise I'm not out the full boat for trying it.
There is some merit to that argument, but the cc companies including the banks and processors don't really care unless the chargeback (aka fraud) level reaches a certain percentage of sales for a given merchant account. The people that are buying v14gr4 and See Alice from the spammers are there willingly and would probably not even bother to report getting fake drugs, etc. just out of sheer embarrassment. Imagine the conversation with the CSR when you're trying to explain that to your bank. Not to mention most of these operations are run out of non-US locations with no incentive to cooperate with anyone outside of their jurisdiction.
"I would think Visa and Mastercard in cooperation with the big banks could track down everyone profiting."
You actually answered your own question...since Visa/MC and the banks are also profiting from the spammers activity, they are complicit and just as guilty. If anyone thinks for one second that the financial system doesn't turn a blind eye to this activity, they haven't been paying attention.
I have no doubt that is true, but I would bet the vast majority of FB users have never even looked at their privacy settings, and almost anyone that uses apps just blindly clicks 'Allow' when that little confirmation box pops up...

As if a quick pat and peek will prevent anyone from concealing a weapon if they were determined enough?
I think it would return them to the idea that politics is not a career, but a temporary public service.

I got one from New York & Company, and honestly had no clue I was even on their list...!
