You know, Michael Moore may resort to half-truths and tugging at the heart strings, but if you have a brain you can see beyond that while still finding a valid message.
If you're an idiot, I'd still rather have you following Michael Moore's rhetoric than Glenn Beck's.
States are effectively barred from establishing a state religion by Article 6. It requires states to use the US Constitution as a litmus test when creating constitutions of their own or passing laws. If it violates the US Constitutions provisions, the law is invalid, as the US Constitution (and treaties) are "law of the land". As the Constitution bars Congress from creating a national religion, state legislators would also be blocked from doing so.
I'd venture to say at the level the big banks and many corporations are, where they can be TBTF and what not, they are not longer private businesses either.
I am a "dog person", but not in that weird recluse, live with 10 dogs in the woods howling at the moon way. I did get a cat a couple years ago though. I was living alone and thought it would be nice to come home to something if not someone. My place is way too small for a dog and I wasn't home enough to walk it a lot. I though, "I'll get a cat. They're independent and don't like a lot of attention." Was I surprised.
My cat has learned the new name I gave him after he'd had one for 2 years (Humane Society rescue). He comes when I call him. He climbs on my lap or will hang out on the arm or back of the couch when I'm sitting on it. He paws at me for attention like many dogs I've known/owned, it's his way of saying "Please, let me sit on your lap." He's very social. Unlike a dog he does not eat shit. He gets annoyed when his litter box is too messy and lets me know by sitting in front of it until I scoop or change it. My cat has learned that when a toy is circling him, its best to turn into it rather than go after it. He calls for me if he wakes up and is alone in a room and comes to me when he figures out where I am. He's social and has learned a great deal.
I have seen similar behavior from a lot of cats, I've seen cats use door knobs, urinate into toilets with the lid up (we caught a cat we owned doing this when I was kid - came home from shopping, there he was straddling the bowl, no training).
I think we humans simply underestimate cats. We leave the cat at home and take the dog camping or hiking or on road trips. To the mall, our friends BBQ. The cat meanwhile, sits at home, eats, sleeps. And they don't come to us for affection in these cases. And then we call the cat anti-social.
Sorry, this is crap "science" or biology I feel and more a sociological conditioning. Sure you'll get retard cats that just aren't smart or social, but you get dogs like that and people. But saying one is smarter than the other is BS.
Still, can't wait to get a bigger place so I can have a dog:D
It seems the countries they compare to Ireland such as China have a completely different lifestylet. Different lifestyle and social norms that usually run on the more luxurious side and the average person perhaps has higher expectations about how things should be or what they get out of the system.
Wouldn't that mean it's a bullshit comparison? Yes, China's tax rate is lower, but the government is not expected to provide the services that Ireland's is expected to?
While I was working at Sprint a few years ago, they began talking about phones with wifi that would use a home users internet when network signal was low. I remember thinking the same thing "Way to offload your job onto the customer." They would also get to *pay* for this feature as another service charge.
Actually it was the prosecuting DA that dropped it, not a judge. If the guy is ordered to pay a bunch of money, he wanted to make sure the guy would be gainfully employed and positioned to make a ton so he could pay. If he is a convicted felon, he wouldn't be eligible for his rich banker job.
The average user will turn to a Slashdotter type for help when a problem arises. They'll be told to stop using a ridiculous browser that only works with a Facebook account and thus RockMelt will go the way of Cuil.
However, Michele Bachmann's stance on copyright is great, if true. You didn't link anything where she actually is on record stating such. What I have heard her say on record is typically narrow minded or devoid of actual ideas. I've never seen any indication from her she is anything more than your typical politician toeing the party line. Vote for me if you want things to change, but we're not going to tell you how.
For example when asked by Chris Mathew's on election night for specifics regarding her comment earlier in the chat, that the GOP needs to create jobs, reduce spending, cut taxes, her answer was to repeat herself. Reduce spending, create jobs, cut taxes. When asked again, directly, in plain English "What would you cut to reduce spending?" (paraphrased) she repeated the mantra, reduce spending, create jobs, cut taxes.
Not that the Dems are better. I personally loath both parties.

That's still a small business?
How did you get by pre-2007?
In 3-4 years talking on your phone while surfing the web on your phone has become a big deal? You might want to look into your priorities.
Does it block it from downloading it? Or does it still cache it to the device (it is content on the page afterall) but simply not display?
You just accidentally a sci-fi.
The university "found it". He just pointed it out in their data.
Aren't the contents of my brain are incorporated in my person?
And then there is this post from CmdrTaco that utterly misinterprets what happened.
Why do I come here? I'm slowly coming less and less and shit like this doesn't help.

My question: Did they have access to people that were obviously peddling in illegal content or access to everyone?

Same. Was about to buy a Kindle. Guess I'm buying a Nook.

The one we have needs to be properly defended.

I'm not trying to rag on Fox News here, but why link them and not CERN's press release page?

Not that I agree with the reasoning.
Lots of photo evidence and other examples that are known to be planes.

Online play? In Fallout: NV? You're not playing the game we're talking about.

Technology isn't becoming more invasive. The use of technology by people in power is become more invasive.
Well, my orig post was crap humor.

It's possible it will simply because MS has now deprecated Silverlight as a web content platform.
Netflix uses Silverlight for their streaming. If they have to switch, it will likely be to Flash, which works just fine on Linux.
