They believe the peaceful Muslims aren't being *real* Muslims because they do not support violent jihad and they make friends with the Great Satan. They believe real Muslims should kill their daughters for becoming too westernized. Real Muslims have a duty to kill the infidel when possible.
You don't get to define who is a real Muslim or not. Millions of Muslims disagree with your view, and there is plenty in the Quran to support their interpretation.
Saddam had plenty of cash due to the oil for food program and various illicit deals, but thanks to a corrupt UN it all went to building palaces, equipping his army, and paying for the loyalty of his supporters.
It's about looks. It's more akin to trademark than a functional patent.
The car equivalent is Mercedes describing the look of the SLS in in a design patent, which Mercedes has done. Then Kia comes out with a car that looks almost exactly like it. That would face an injunction just as Samsung has.
As it is the Japanese have been skirting the European car maker design patents very closely over the last couple decades, borrowing one or two parts of the looks of European cars, but never going far enough (AFAIK) to infringe on a design patent.
iOS doesn't need as much RAM as Android to run well.
It's like assuming Desktop #1 runs better because it has 1 GB RAM vs. the 512 MB RAM in Desktop #2, but Desktop #1 is running Windows Vista and Desktop #2 is running Ubuntu.
One more advantage of the Galaxy Tab: It has an awesome flimsy plastic case instead of that nasty rigid aluminum case.
This is why anti-Apple sites only show you the front of the frame, to make you think the whole thing looked like an iPad. The patent does not just concern the front, but the whole design together, which must be copied in order to get an injunction. And that's what Samsung did.
My domain is a letter off from a big company's, and I used to get what looked like pretty sensitive email all the time. After a few attempts to tell employees to stop doing it, I just turned off the catch-all.
Mansa Musa, an African ruler, went to Mecca on the Hajj with a huge caravan carrying tons of gold. He spent so much during his visit to Cairo and other cities on the way that it depressed the value of gold and caused massive inflation. Realizing this, he borrowed a bunch of gold to drive the value back up. But the market didn't stabilize for years.
Brakes for the used low-end sedan that the family on the low end of the wage scale would be likely to buy is going to cost exactly the same. So obviously the "Fair Tax" doesn't scale quite like you're suggesting.
The rebate will make up for any taxes paid by that family on the low end of the wage scale.
They are supposed to return it when things are over, but then they can extend things forever, so they never have to return it.
One woman just had her legal guns siezed by local police, no charges filed. She demanded them back, they said go to court. She got a judge to order their release, the sheriff ignored it.
The Fair Tax proposal rebates at a level that eliminates the effective rate of taxation for anyone at the poverty level. After that, it goes up with your purchasing power.
Brakes for my car all around costs a few hundred dollars. Brakes for a Porsche GT3 run about $10,000, and they need replacing more often.
We know Fox, that's easy. ABC insiders admit they're liberally biased, with little political diversity from the leftist viewpoint. CBS with Wallace and Couric, and don't forget Rather and his partisan hit piece on Bush. CNN? Well, in studies, Democrats tend to view the network favorably and think it's not biased, while Republicans tend to think it's biased liberal. That's a clue. We have a liberal bias because reporters tend to be biased liberal even if the management isn't. The only thing that's going to counter that is something like Fox management dictating a more conservative viewpoint.
After the election the Washington Post ombudsman flat-out admitted they had been blatantly pro-Obama in the election.
In fact, it's just easier to sit back and look at the big picture for the bias. During the 2008 election, ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS and CNN were all fawning over Obama, while Fox was pushing McCain.
Question: Soldiers are still dying in Iraq and Afghanistan. Why is the press not clamoring for coffin shots as they were during the Bush administration?
As of last year, more troops had died in Afghanistan under Obama than under Bush. Why do we not constantly see the current tally of dead in the news as we did during the Bush administration?

It's not like they're real people or anything.
This was one white European guy, so he matters far more than they do.
It's also not scary radioactive material, just plain old oil.
All this together makes it not so newsworthy.
We need X energy. We want to evaluate the safety of the various means of providing X energy.
So the relevant question is: How many people will die to provide us with X energy by a means?
Deaths per terawatt-hour perfectly answers the question.
He needed help from the outside, and the UN was willing to provide it.

No True Scotsman.

Lots of stone, concrete and asphalt. It's older so it looks cooler than most American cities, but it's the same as far as that goes.
Or try Ludwigshaven. Yuck.
But didn't. Obvious reason: they didn't have a case.
Look at them side by side. The Prada and the original iPhone look quite different.
The Galaxy S and the original iPhone look almost the same.
Except iOS > Android, so more functionality and better with a smaller memory requirement.
Quite disingenuous comparing to DOS.

We know what Samsung thought phones and tablets should look like before and after the iPhone and iPad.
From any other angle it looks wildly different than an iPad.

And from conception it was supposed to be a big iPod Touch anyway, so they're still copying Apple.

"Please explain exactly how you sent and received 4.5 million text messages this month! Were you even doing your homework?"
"Unlimited" call time up to IIRC 5,000 minutes.
Well, then, it's not exactly unlimited, is it?

A government can't print more of it.
The more splits, the more management you need as opposed to worker bees who actually do things.

In 1997 a textbook that went for around $100 everywhere else was at Amazon for $55.
I've been a loyal customer ever since.

I'm surprised Bush didn't try to get detention of hackers as part of the Patriot Act.
Who needs RICO? We'll just make you disappear, Soviet-style.
