These are the pants you seek. Rip-stop nylon and more pockets than you know what to do with.
They also make great cutoffs and they have buttons to secure the pockets and flaps (you don't want the enemy to hear you working a zipper). I reccomend the basic black for that formal look (although the urban cammo will certainly turn heads at work).
Or if you need even more room try this rig on for size. But seriously check out your local home center for a small tool pouch. It sounds like you have enough gear. The suspenders also make a nice touch at rounding out the ensemble.
I'll be watching my inbox for this if this law is passed.
Get rich quick!!!
New anti-spam law passed.
Recieve up to $100 per unsolicited email you collect.
Here at Shark, Leech and Parisite incorporated we specilize in prosecuting cases of unsolicited email. For $39.95 we will send you our patented unsolicited email collection system. By creating multiple mailboxes and exposing the addresses in public places you soon will be a magnet for bulk e-mail. Using our system you gather the offending messages and ship them off to or legal bot. Once every 20 minutes the bot generates a lawsuit and delivers it to a random court some where in the US. Should a lawsuil be succesful you will receive your check for the total award(after we take out costs and expenses).
Relpy to Johncrapper24601@hotmail.com if you feel recieved this message and error or would like to be removed from our list.
By signing on to the internet today you have indicated your consent to recieve this message. This is not "spam" because we say it is not.
According to Gracenote, "It's our valuable intellectual property that's underlying all this." I beg to differ.
It is my (and your) intellectual property that underlies their database. I have inputted a couple of discs into CDDB over the years.
I propose a class action lawsuit to reclaim our IP. I reccomend we sue for five dollars per entry and whatevers left after the sharks get their cut we donate to charity. What do you think.
If we win the database, we could give it to Freedb.org , free and clear.
How long is it going to take for us to see hacked xm units on the market? Or a link to XMDeCss on 2600? More lawsuits, more whining about IP. Does anyone know what they are using for security? Smart cards? Software keys? GPS and laser deathrays from space? In a month everyone will be wearing aluminum foil hats and bootleging XM. Just thinking about it makes me want to down my sorrows in a 40 of Malt Liquor.

It has come to our attention that you are illegally using the copyrighted genetic material of our client 'OneBigCorp.Com'. Furthermore we have learned that you are attempting fo create further self replicating entities using our property (children). Under the DCMA we have insterted a 'self help' section into your genetic code. This letter is to inform you of it's activation.
The problem with 'pig latin' and the DMCA is that there is not copyrighted material to protect.
Then solution is to create a plugin that creates an encrypted header (rot13, rsa, enigma whatever) that contains copyrighted information as well as the song name. The header should look like this:
Metallica.MP3 (Aimster Business Plan: Use DMCA to bludgen RIAA as much as possible. Copyright 2001 Aimster Inc.)
Then, decypting the 'copyrighted' portion of the message creates the infringment. Then Aimster sues the RIAA. Even searching for RIAA material will create hundreds of violations. Unfortunatly the larger header will consume a bit of bandwidth:)
The city already conducts a random sample blind telephone survey bi-annualy (in conjunction with a local university), I wanted to leave open the option of focusing on our participants in that survey. We do not block caller ID and make every effort to respect peoples wishes. The opt-out is a good idea and I will fit it in.
Remeber we do not market at the level of a 'real' bussines (call centers, weekly mass mailings etc.). Marketing is a small portion of our budget. Our marketing goal is to find out what services people want ant let them know when they are occuring, not forcing people to buy what the do not need.
The balancing factor is that it is more convient to the participant if we keep the info on file so we do not have to ask the same question again and again.
I would like to balance convience and privacy for the users.
As per the 'court order' business, this is a CYA manuver to deal with the fact it could happen, not that I expect it to happen.
Actually, I am authoring the policy and I want to achieve the best balance that I can between privacy and meeting the needs and requirements of the department and city.
The photo waiver is in place because a person wanted to be paid for a photo we took at one of our free events. We need the ability to document programs and events without having to chase down every participant or their parent for a waiver of rights to the photo. By getting sign-off in advance we save the hassle. It is a small price to pay IMHO for a free or subsidized service.
About the waiver, it only protects us if you do something stupid. If we do something stupid (negligence) no waiver in the world can protect us from the lawsuit. They are of limited value in the best circumstance and utterly worthless the rest of the time.
I am one of the bureaucrats running the Rec. department. We read Slashdot to!
As per you local difficulties I can not comment but it sounds pretty wrong to me.
The data in question is specifically collected only for programs funded by Community Development Block Grants. It is used to validate the tose dollars are benifiting low/moderate income families. The values are ploted against a grid based on income and household size to determine the income level. The mandate for these progreams is 50% of participants be low/mod income.
Is there a better way to determine this? I do not have one.
If parks and rec organizations were properly funded, we would not have to take the Fed's dole.
What the industry does not grasp is by placing all these restrictions on devices, they create the pirate market. If I want to watch the HDTV broadcast of a superbowl at 2am I will find a way to do it. Be it a hardware hack/dongle or a software solution, this industry will FORCE me to violate the law. And for those of you you say "I don't see them twisting your arm", anything the prevents me from viewing content, whether ad supported or pay per view, can only have one of two results, me changing the channel or me fixing the problem.
I aplogize for not being a good lemming and accepting the crap the RIA/MPAA dish out. And remember, all these steps are being taken to represent the corporate interests in the distribution channel and not necessarily the interests of the content creaters.
For someone who holds spam in such high opinion why try to block it from you own inbox "journaSPAMlist.com".
Who's to say that "an ingenious marketer" is going to stop at just knowning your IP. Why not load a keystroke monitor or some other spyware? Then they could skip that annoying "attract the customer" and start charging your credit card directly (no fair patenting my idea either).
Marketing is an offensive weapon used against the consumer. If companies provided a good product at a fair price, the would inspire more brand loyalty than millons of marketing dollars. To often companies use marketing to foist unneeded and unwanted products on consumers (to say nothing of 'get rich quick' and other scams).
What these led lights are missing is efficient lense / reflector systems. Given the small 'filament' area (the elusive point source of light) of the LED emitters it should be reasonably simple to construct a parabolic or elipsoidal reflector. Once the gee-wiz factor is used up and people actually start desiging fixtures to use these lamps, watch out.
By ganging LEDs together (already done) and focusing the light some really cool stuff is possible.

SDMI will never prevent you from copying the latest metallica single. SDMI is to prevent you from releasing your music to 'the masses' in a digital format. The new track from you favorite local band will not play on you SDMI 'protected' walkman.
The intent is that same as DCC on a DAT player, to protect the channel the music companies use to become rich. When someone creates the hack that inserts a SDMI watermark that can fool the players, that will be something to write home about.
This system creates a warehouse to consumer pathway that completely removes the need for the user's interaction from the purchasing equation.
First the user's universal serial code is scanned from their forehead via the CueCat privacy elimination subsystem. The their universal id is looked up via the DoubleClick network database subsystem which holds a record of all purchases, pageviews and errant thoughts. The by scanning their financial ability from the MegaBank system we determine their 'ability to pay'. Then via computer algorithim we determine the products needed from Amazon Everything dot com.
Upon shipment of these items, the account of the 'user' is automatically debited. As if by magic (in 3 to 5 bussiness days) the items the user did not know they even wanted arrived at their door.
Consumers can of course "opt-out" of this service by placing a note in a bottle, tossing it in a body of water (don't forget to flush), and waiting 75 - 100 years for the "opt-out" form to be delivered via pony express.
Also a 120% restocking fee will be charged to anyone caught thinking of returning the items.

Fortunatly for us Tron is prepared to take on the MCP and save cyberspace (and realspace as well).
NASA was prepared for a loss of signal. Check out this backup plan from the point of view of one of the technicians that staged it.
And if you have a heart attack the can give you electric shocks from you Pocket PC.
