You wanna bet Uber will be part of the next round of contracts? If so I hear a New York bridge is for sale, I think you would be very interested in it.
It is all relative. Compared to the present medallions, I would rather take the free market anyday. Regulations that foster competition in stagnated market is good, many forms of regulations are good, but compared to what currently exists, free market is heaven.
Nope. What we are asking for is to get rid of these stupid medallions (not right now, when the contracts or whatever expire). Create a real free market of taxi companies competing with each other. Atleast of them would ready embrace Uber.
So who ever notices the email (or news) first gets to claim the domain? I would prefer a raffle to this, if I were one of the participants (hell, I would even prefer the digital archery to this).
Somebody cared to mod this as troll and flamebait. Wow, I did manage to convince some people that I was serious, despite responding to a comment that calls for parodies. Kudos to myself I guess.
JOBS. The cable and media companies are suffering innumerable loses due to piracy, of cable content. This is costing America innumerable number of jobs. Encryption alone will save tons of jobs, while affecting no legitimate cable watcher.
Actually if you see the video, they talked specifically about the balloon capacity (you can also visually see the spare balloon capacity (as a side note, it was fun to see the balloon keep expanding slowly occupying spare capacity, if you get a chance you should really watch the complete video)). The balloon could have expanded much more. The commentary specifically talks about not going higher than 128K for the safety of the jump. I assume they had a range for him, in which he could jump, and 128K was the higher end I guess.
It depends on your visa and the consulate that issued the visa, actually. The aim is not to get your fingerprints when you enter the US, but to verify that you are the person the visa was issued for. The Canadian GP probably never needed a visa, and there was nothing to verify through finger prints.
This is theoretically true. Are there any real world studies comparing these two? How many people can really compete with an ABS. I wouldnt expect it to be many (1% would be my guess). And I wouldnt put myself in the 1%, so I would opt for the ABS.
Canada supplied India with a research reactor and uranium in the 1954. NPT came to existence a decade and half later. And yes they received assistance from both Canada and USSR, but most of their nuclear research and development and test reactor construction has been post NPT, without the assistance of NPT signatories.
What makes you think they wanted to go any higher? They infact had to vent out helium, by opening valves, so that they dont go any higher than 128K ft.
This only the second article today and you are already complaining? I would expect one more article summarizing the press conference. And one or two dupes in the next slow news day. If you were expecting any different, you must be new here.
Pimping is still illegal in most (all?) of Europe. So the result would have been the same. The fitness instructor would have still been arrested for pimping. His client list would still be made as evidence and be published.
I am not sure what you are bitter about. Yeah things could have gone wrong. People from the ground center would have wondered if he passed out during the tumble (well it has happened to people before. He could have become unconscious, the parachute deploys automatically at the right altitude, and he might have required some help from ground crew, but thats about it). Two many things would have to go wrong for him to have died or get serious injured in this. And I am not where you got this hype about man against atmosphere (some sources would be nice).
And I disagree with your notion about risk takers. First, risk takers are as necessary to the society as much as moderate people. Society places more value on them, because they are rare, and risk takers are necessary for the society.

I am not sure I understand your point. Are you saying he has a fake accent or that he does not? Or that either way it is a stupid thing to take note?
Is it just me, or does the president seem to have a fake accent. Some sort of a fake drawl?

Apply congestion surcharges, the traffic will move better than ever and it is not just the taxis that would be affected.

Random numbers that fit your model, yes.

Cable companies dont get ad revenue for any channels. They only get the fees the subscriber pay to receive these channels.

I take that back. The original Nano price was $2500 (they were shooting for $2000, but couldnt make it), so your calculation is correct.
Er, TFS probably refers to triple of the original Nano Price point $1000, which is $3000.

Was it about, Jesus being cross with the Jews?

You remember those days fondly? How old are you?
That is exactly what is being dubbed as digital archery. People did not like digital archery and now ICANN is offering a raffle.
Actually I take that back. She was not pimping, and it does not apply here at all.
