I love mine. It's a little on the heavy side for a tablet, but it's really a full PC with full PC capabilities and that makes my day a hell of a lot easier, especially when I can transition from notes/sketches directly to development while still in a development meeting.
Actually, during the MA BELL breakup, different areas were sold off or became different companies. AT&T was one, Verizon another. Verizon does not own all the phone lines.
They "ran" fiber into my "neighborhood". So what really happened was, they put in a hub near Lee university. Then came around "selling" the residents of the area on how great the service is./sarc/ For only $70 a month + installation fees, (re: running the actual fiber from the hub to my house via telephone poles" you get a whopping 18MB down with an amazing 4MB up connection! What a deal!/sarc/. The kid who came by trying to sell me the service just couldn't understand the concept that my cable connection was faster. I had to give him an analogy. I drive a dodge, you drive a ferrari. You COULD go 150mph down the highway, but, the state decided to put in new speed limit signs: Ferraris: 18mph, all other cars 55mph.
That entirely depends on the organization's setup. You have everything from PM is just a reporter and secretary" to "PM runs it all" and everything in between.
It seriously depends. In my specialty, having the cert is actually the primary method for getting contracts. Most consumers of the technology I work with go directly to the source and use their "find a consultant" feature, which you can only be listed on if you are certified. With that being said, I stopped paying for certs in other things like CC**, MCSE's, etc, many years ago. Never once, have I ever been asked if I was certified in anything by anyone other than some schmuck recruiter fishing for a new resume to shop around. I would say though, there are certain gigs, like the one I am on now, that "require" a cert for this technology, but they've never asked me for it.
And that's the problem. I have been dealing with large organizations for years. I have even been the one to build requirements for a position and submit them to HR for posting. HR will then take those req's, jargon them up so that half the time they don't make sense and then add in their own requirements such as Bachelor's degree in computer science or related field and 10 years experience in X random tech that has nothing to do with the job. I've cursed out HR reps for doing shit like this because they want too much for even entry level positions @ $30k/year. Hell, my 12 year old daughter can do better web design and development than some of the cats coming out of school with "I know Dreamweaver" degrees.
This is a misnomer, in today's markets, it is getting increasingly difficult to land jobs without a college degree. I am highly qualified in my field, I have certifications out the ying yang and I still have trouble landing some contracts purely due to not yet having finished my degree and I've been in the field 15 years.
Yes, the people who wrote it, although not writing their persona views into it, published numerous papers, articles, and even books describing their opinions that government and religion should have nothing to do with one another. And more to your point, "in order to form a well regulated militia" also doesn't mean what the NRA would like it to mean.

definitely. I have a few galaxy tabs and iPads running loose, but I hands down prefer the surface to all of them at this point.

Sprint did it first, T-Mobile followed. The other providers have toyed with it in markets across the country for the last few years.
Though this is quite true, I have only ever had 1 prospective employer ask to verify my previous salary.

I used to work for a publishing company that actually did all the publishing work for Elsevier. Both companies are total crap.
Not a single one from my class.
Tennessee and Georgia, evolution was taught, with the caveat "if you are offended by this, please wait out in the hallway until the end of class"
I got my notification as did everyone else in my office.
Then again, compared to the Charter bullshit I now have..... I'd rather have the Comcast from before I moved.
If I had mod points +1
Well, she didn't start the fire. She couldn't put it out either.
It's Frederick... they just got the internets yesterday.
If his wishes were to not be found or bothered, why are we ignoring these wishes now....

Please name any single "item" that could be stockpiled to have enough value to cover the entire US economic structure.
There is not a single item on this earth, nor are there combinations of items that the United states could collect physically to back the currency.
