An FM receiver is not the same as an FM transmitter but in the maemo repositories (Nokia n900) there's an application to enable the FM transmitter on phones sold in markets where it's disabled.
On the wage front, it's fairly orthodox among modern economists to believe that a minimum wage does more harm that good to low income earnings (by making it impossible for many to get a job at all)
The minimum wage brings a more important benefit than the money in the pocked of the worker
When a man works for less than the properly established minimum wage he is actually costing society as a whole and only his employer has (short term) benefits.
The lack of minimum wages often leads to a downwards spiral, less pay, less turnover in the supermarket, less houses build etc.
Besides, a responsible employer wouldn't want to pay a man less than subsistence, and that's what most (legal) minimum wages are at.
It's quite incredible the USofA still allows closed shops.
During the cold war it was the same USofA that was continuously beating the drum of the right to form independent unions and political parties.
For that right to be complete it needs to include the freedom not to join, a union that negotiates a closed shop should be dragged into court, even when it's based on international treaties that are being violated.
There is a constitutional guaranteed freedom to unionise and that freedom would be defective if anyone was forced to join.
At the moment The Netherlands and Denmark have the lowest unemployment rates in the EU at below 5% and at the same time their unionisation is only about 25% in The Netherlands but 75% in Denmark.
(Northern) Europeans treat unions with respect and expect the unions to be responsible.
(That's maybe why the UK is generally not considered part of this elusive Northern Europe:) )
The problem with your line of thought is that the rest of society, the part that's supported by the spending of regular workers, will be going down to African standards too.
When a job doesn't return enough money to pay for your livelihood that job is a waste and society would be better off without it
a recent ruling by the EU's Office for Harmonisation of Internal Markets saw Sky prevailing over Skype, with the latter's name and logo being judged too similar to Sky's..
I assume it's mainly the logo, but this is something the EU parliament needs to keep a tag on.
I regularly drive a Porsche in Germany, say 15-20 years ago it would be the BMW's that were tailgating, the last 10 years or so it's the Audi's.
I mean their drivers:)
But the A8 is not one of them, probably too much class for that sort of thing.
But because Audi's are generally restricted to 250 km/h. the tailgating only lasts till the road ahead is free again.
The majority of men I know considers physical contact (as in sex) with other men as creepy and a total abomination but at the same time many of them have close friendships with men without any sexual attraction what so ever.
For them is 'getting off' with other men simply impossible, their little man goes very limp at the thought alone.
Which she did, I'm sorry if your sensibilities were offended, but she unloaded some deeply unprofitable industry from the state and thus stopped the profitable sectors from being tied down with mega-taxes to support continuing, economically non-viable industry in areas like coal mining.
Yes she was good at lessening regulation for industry.
Like when her government lowered the requirements on the processing of offal to cattle feed.
The "lost sales" numbers companies claim often are based on 100% of people buying the more expensive real product (which most of us would agree is a completely bogus number).
Indeed, I recently bought a fake Breitling watch for $100.-.
Even though I have to take it off in the shower (yes I bathe) I would never buy the +$4000.- real deal that's water proof to -500 meters.
Yet some lawyers would tally this as a $4000.- lost sale.
And much like Iran, I'm willing to bet, in the absence of said oppression, they could flourish as a modern nation.
Knowing the place first hand I believe the country would without a very strong government turn within a very short period of time into a raging mess of feuding tribes and religious extremists, just one example; the oil rich east is populated by Shia Muslims that hate the Sunni Bedouins forming the Royal family and army.
And that's really a pity because there is a large group of reasonably well educated people and lot's of natural riches.

As Nevada is one of the US states I've never visited it makes me wonder if their roads are anything compared to European or even German Autobahns...
Until then I'll limit the times I hit 265 km/h (155 mi/h for the old fashioned) to the occasions I get in Germany.

Or you could get a non-proprietary like the Nokia n900.

Skype intends to appeal.
I hope so!
Fleas of a particular hardy breed.
Those are some well worded replies.
Hmm, big kitchen appliances...
The fact that the Australians are representing the Empire is only a veil.
Have a look at a map on how the territorial waters between those two nations are divided, that doesn't look very cricket...
Of course you also have to wonder how many similar cases there are that are still under a gag order, and whether there are even worse ones.
I don't have to wonder.
And I'm sorry to say so.
Depending on who's side you are it's brilliant or disgusting.

With such an attitude you'll never become a C*O of anything.
Today it might work or at least for a while.
When you depend on wifi for net access your best bet is still to install wicd.
He was referring to the UK, for starters they commonly drive on the other side of the road.
A fair system of justice should never rely on (such) a single point of failure.
So I assume their navigators will in future use ext2/3 instead of FAT.
This option is open to any developer.

What arguably became the direct cause of BSE.
