This happens all over the place, including serious enough leaks that can cause explosions. Occasionally you hear about a building/house/etc blowing up because gas has leaked in from a line out front, or was run under a building, or something else. The only solution is checking, that and running new pipe. In my area back about 15 years ago Union Gas replaced all of the old turn of the century cast iron pipe with plastic. There was no shortage of the old stuff cracking and having developed leaks over the last 100 years. And of course, they checked every house along the way to the meter and if need be they dug up your front yard and replaced the pipe.
I'm actually not sure why the whistleblower thing is "needed" being that anyone who went to highschool(at least in Canada), knows that this is an issue. And yet, we have NG all over the place, or propane if you're too far off the line, or oil. And of course there's still plenty of people who don't have any of those, and are pure electric or wood.
60 minutes has been extremely confrontational(to the point of making things up to fit their narrative) with many things in the past. How it manages to stay on the air I have no idea, but it does. And besides that love fest you're talking about? Why be surprised at it, after all it's the same network that has or had Maddow, Mathews, and Olbermann on it and they've always had their faces stuck to the ass of the democratic party. It's only gotten worse in the last few years, to the point where they've become a full-on propaganda arm for the democrats and especially the Obama administration.
No not really. You've successfully used three different sources two of which are known for excessively strong anti-conservative leanings, for the sake of being anti-conservative. Both the CBC & G&M have an axe to grind. The CBC doesn't even try to hide it's bias, while the latter it's a thin veneer. As for foreign radicals going after the pipelines, oilsands, and all the rest? You bet and you'd best believe it happens. I was in sour gas alley, and you might remember the case about the guy who tried to blow up not one, but a dozen separate wellheads. Then there's the environmental groups who were protesting in southern ontario, over the direction of flow on a pipeline that's been in use for 30 years. And then we've got the near riots out on the east coast, including the burning of vehicles.
I'm guessing you'll trot out the "but they were all government agitators."
Your third source, links to the NYT's as it's primary source of information. And if you think that the NYT doesn't have an axe to grind against the current government you either don't live here, or are hopelessly naive. Especially after the various environmental groups here were nailed taking foreign money, while claiming tax exempt status, and using it for political advocacy. That's a serious no-no up here, that can lead to a long time in pound-your-ass prison. And of course, the majority source of that money is ultra-leftwing environmental groups from? If you guessed the US, you won a cookie.
So you're trying to compare what was done *within the law* to what is being done not within the law? Gotcha, can you tell us there AC how ruling by directive fiat unlike those other examples are equal? I'll wait.
That's how it was in the US back in the late 90's and early '00s. I remember seeing billboards everywhere when I was traveling, such as: DSL 6/1 for $9/mo, or 10/512 Cable for $19.95/mo from *dozens* of companies. What happened? Well those companies went tits up because back in '05ish the government scrapped regulation on selling the last mile. Similar to what we didn't have in Canada for a long time. You could only get broadband through the major players--or through local telcos who invested heavily in broadband like North Norwich Telecom(NNT)-now called execulink after NNT bought them out, Now that we have this up in Canada, with more or less open last mile. we see dozens of new companies selling broadband on the last mile from DSL to Cable, making money and selling it for less than the incumbents.
And down in the US at my place in Florida, I'm paying $69/mo for 10/1 service and in Canada I'm paying $45/mo for 25/1(I could get 25/10 for $3 more, but I haven't switched off my locked grandfathered plan) from one of those companies that buy last mile access.
How much Fox News do you watch a day? I just really like to gather data on that fact when I see such a polarized person.
How can you spot a liberal? They always go right to fox news.
Funny that it's at the supreme court huh? And this isn't even the first time, it's the 6th or 7th time that his use of XO's to bypass the law has gone to court.
So I'm sure what the Japanese people are doing, as an example, is switching their iTunes "home" location to another country and buying iTunes cards from those countries, saving costs and getting equivalent merchandise.
That's exactly what they're doing, or they're having their friends in the US and Canada send the stuff to them. I regularly send movies, cards, and games to my gaming buddies in Japan, because I can get it much cheaper...and surprise I have no qualms about it, neither do they. They're getting raked over the coals, but it has all to do with amount or lack of taxation they're able to raise because the average worker age is now 41(unlike the late 20's to early 30's in the Americas). Then again, I would have moved there years ago and taken up a job in the law field if they didn't have a stick up their ass over foreigners, even those of us who are first generation kids.
It's not a pretty picture on what's going to happen there in the next 20 years unless they dig their heads out of their ass.
Odd how it seems that long ago, and damned if I can still remember playing it in school. Now if only we could get a simearth, simant, and simfarm again I could relive the years I wasted playing them.
No they're larger than 120x100 cells, the problem is people are used to the massive cityscapes they could create in SC3/4 and rightfully expected the same.
Uh it *is* a thermostat. As for nothing like it? My grandparents had a honeywell electronic thermostat that could do nearly everything that the nest ones do, and that was in 1992. The only difference is theirs was fully wired, and had to be wired into other things besides. And this is mainly via wifi. This thing isn't revolutionary, not by a long shot.
What is it with people and thinking that a smartcard = RFID? And it seems to be mainly americans who should know better, damn it this is/. not a chan or reddit. But it sure seems to be devolving into both.
Well they could in many cases, except many people especially liberals throw a hissy fit whenver a bigbox store like walmart wants to open up and provide jobs that pay a wage. Shining examples of that one all over the place.
I'm somewhat shocked that 1 in 7 american's is dependent on foodstamps to get by...
Why be shocked? Nearly 50m americans on food stamps, and the labor participation rate is the lowest since the 1970's under Carter, but they're a'screamin' that unemployment is going down.
Well we all know that scientists are infalible right? After all we had many 100 years ago that believed eugenics was the solution to protect mankind. And today we've got others in wingnut territory.
And with that, if you believe that persistence hunting is impossible in anything but big open fields, I'm sure that after getting their first few foot injuries various individuals will have figured out that wrapping animal skins around their feet would help stop the problem. This is most easily recognized with various groups that live in the far north. And there's no real easy way to say that they did, or didn't in other areas of the world. After all, if someone died on a hunt it would be gone in no time, and all that.
Rising health insurance prices were doing that anyway, with or without Obamacare.
Really? How odd that the number of uninsured was at a pretty much constant level. Now with the ACA, you have people who can't get insurance at all, have people who's policies have been fully cancelled and can't get insurance at all, and even more people who's rates have climbed to a point where they could afford insurance, they now no longer can.
I'm sure that you also believe that you can keep your insurance, and your doctor too...well...if you can find a doctor.
How can you spot a liberal? When unable to relate to facts on an issue, they break down into insults and run off into wild directions while using ad-hom's.
Since you've already got president that has increased the number of people without health insurance to a greater total than before Obamacare came into existence, I suppose it's possible.
Here's the problem with that line of thinking. In those multiverses, there is just in as much an equal chance that the tooth fairy exists. That robots have already risen up and enslaved mankind, and no life ever evolved on earth.
Despite that people continue to run with that feminist crap, you'll find that you're about 50-80 years too late. You know, before they had the right to vote pretty much anywhere.

The Obama administration doesn't compromise. They give ultimatums, and when they don't pass he circumvents the law by using executive orders.

I think you mean polyurethane are a few decades old(invented in the 1990's). Latex are almost 100 years old(invented in 1920ish).

So you're saying that no wage is better than a wage of somekind at all in the case of the "mother of 5 living in a shithole?"
Well they could in many cases, except many people especially liberals throw a hissy fit whenver a bigbox store like walmart wants to open up and provide jobs that pay a wage. Shining examples of that one all over the place.

He is referencing a comment Obama made and taking it to an extreme.
Nah, he's referencing a comment that Obama made, which the race baiters took to extremes, and those who are tired of it have flipped back on them.
Since you've already got president that has increased the number of people without health insurance to a greater total than before Obamacare came into existence, I suppose it's possible.
Here's the problem with that line of thinking. In those multiverses, there is just in as much an equal chance that the tooth fairy exists. That robots have already risen up and enslaved mankind, and no life ever evolved on earth.
it's a joke
Might make sense if there was a joke in it, but as it stands it might be closer to trolling.
