The Congress is made up of two chambers, the house and senate. The House of Representatives is up for re-election every two years. Members of the Senate serve staggered 6-year terms, not the House of Representatives.
"Technically just about every Republican that could be evicted was" That is incorrect. Before the election there were 230+ Republican House members. After the election there are around 196. All 230+ memebers were up for re-election. Not just 1/3. That's the Senate you're thinking of.
McBride proudly dumped two phone-book-sized binders of press clippings on the stage during his SCO Forum keynote on Monday as proof that his company had become more relevant in the high technology industry. SCO has issued 46 press releases since filing suit against IBM on March 7. Last year it issued only 29 press releases between March and August.
Rights and freedoms are NOT granted by the 'state'. Rights and freedoms are recognized and secured by the 'state'.
From The Declaration of Independence:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. --That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,
The government has no constitutional authority to restrict my freeedoms. Can't speak for Europe, I don't live there. I'm an American!
So far all I've seen is:
Not as good as Windows/Mac
Redhat/SuSE/etc... already has this
Get a better printer
It's not free? (Actually haven't seen this one...yet)
What kind of loser are you? RTFM!
Sheesh. Typical. Kinda reminds me of
this artical
Or maybe you forgot about the US attempt to prevent other nations to trade with Cuba with the (now dead I think) Helms-Burton (sp?) bill.
OK. Here we go.
I didn't forget it about. However the key word in your sentence is attempt . Hello!??!? It didn't happen. Some Senators TRIED to do it and the attempt failed. Cuba is still a third world nation even though EVERY other nation in the world is free to trade with it.
I wonder why the US is still trading with China, they too are COMMUNISTS!
That is simple. China has the potential to become a very powerful nation. The conventional wisdom being trade with China will ultimately change China's communist ways. Oh, that and money. Whereas Cuba is a tiny island nation that is really no consequence/threat to the free world.
It's funny how you don't even need to say how someone (or some country) is bad, you can just say COMMUNIST... or ARABS, or TERRORISTS (which is probably the same as the previous in the american dictionary).
No. It's not funny at all. Communist and terrorists are one in the same in many peoples books. Arabs are not. It's people like yourself whose attempts to associate the latter with the former that is truly disgusting.
I love it when flaming liberals bring up Cuba. We are the ONLY nation on this planet that doesn't trade with Cuba and yet the US gets blamed for the sad state Cuba is in. Ever thought it might be the fact that the government is COMMUNIST! Sheesh. Every other nation is free to trade (and alot do, France, China, Canada) with Cuba but the US continually gets blamed for Cuba's state of affairs by the more ignorant among us. As far as Somalia goes, what are we suppose to do? If there is a company that is aiding a terrorist organization you shut it down if possible. Hmmmm, lets see. Internet access for a third world nation or less resources for terrorist organizations. I know what I choose.
Guess what, he went up in a RUSSIAN ship and had to sign a legally binding contract saying that he wouldn't touch anything on the American part of the station I have news for you. The Americans PAID for the Russian module. Just goto google and do a search for something like "America Pay Russia ISS". As far as why we were voted off the Human Rights Commision, that is called payback. Payback for being critical of human rights abuses worldwide and not to mention a new administration with a 180 degree different viewpoint than the majority of socialist Europe.
Long-term solution: All clueless legislators die off and are replaced by tech-savvy, clueful legislators.
This, of course, could take a while. Unless some of us decide to get, um, aggressive about pursuing such a solution. Who says that 'tech-savvy' legislators will still allow copyright whores? Just be careful what you wish for. Think its bad now with these 'clueless' legislators, wait till you get some in there that actually have ideas of their own on how to regulate P2P networks.....
Is there someone on call 24x7x365 in case of an outage? Is there MAJOR industry support (IE compaq, tandem, etc...). These are some of the more major road blocks for a 'mission critical' database. SQL Server is yet to the status or say Oracle, but they DO have industry support. There are people you can call. There are %99.99999 uptime contracts that can be purchased.
Kiss napster goodbye. After this ruling no university in their right mind is going to let napster on campus. What gets me (correct me if I am wrong) is that mp3.com was being sued over the my.mp3.com service. This service 'requires' that users OWN the material they are storing. Next thing you know you won't be able to record that new 'Puff Mama' CD you just bought onto a RIO or like devices.....
