I read the other comment as pointing out that the hitting streak only happened once in our universe, so the fact that it occurs easily in the study raises some questions about the study. Of course, in that case, one possible answer is that it has happened again:
The other poster was wondering why it didn't happen in 1929, and then with DiMaggio in 1941, and then again in 1942 and again in 1955, not if it was going to happen in 2008.
Sure. My point was more that the ads are about revenue, not content. They get paid to schlep the ads to your door, and they figure they make more doing so than they lose on subscribers who get sick of it and stop taking the paper.
I guess when you say "make up for lack..." you are talking about them not publishing anything interesting enough to draw in readers and I am just reading to narrowly.
I get a free weekly newspaper that is mostly ads. So they aren't sticking the ads in their to make up for the lack of real content, they are getting paid to distribute the ads to you.
I wrote the comment with the idea that the link existed and then didn't feel like throwing it away when I found out it was broken. Tracking down a cached copy didn't really occur to me. If I had given more consideration to the fact that it was protected to avoid further attention I probably would have thrown the comment away.
It is pretty crazy to consider the degree of acculturation involved though. Two people doing whatever it is that makes them happy, and the others reaction is visceral disgust.
People from different cultures might be extra careful, or they might simply blunder forth. There was a great livejournal entry about a westerners experience in Japan:
So, is it still a group then? Or is it some sort of silly badge that you might not want to use because who knows what someone is going to use it for later?
(on 10% gross income, so they are spending 9 out of 10 dollars they take in, and of that dollar they keep, the government is taking about 30 cents in taxes)
That leaves room for improvement, but you better hope your government agency is pretty efficient.
If you look at the profits of other companies, they are often much higher(Toyota is similar, but check out GE, Microsoft, IBM).

For quite a few values of Dave, there is a very good chance that they already do.

What name would you drop if Disch or Delaney got too popular to like?
The organic implementation of this is known as a "cricket".
If it's the last thing I do, I'll get the bastard who designed them.

That's a bit problematic, as all HDTV is compressed. You want the codec and the bitrate.

At the risk of being a jerk, you?

I'm lazy and had already read it.
So Todd, frustrated lately?

You've reiterated that you think congress is at fault. You have yet to state why you think so.
Well, if you are actively looking for other ways to disappoint him, drugs and sex seem to work for an awful lot of people.
They could have walked away from the Apple name. They chose to fight it out.
So, is it still a group then? Or is it some sort of silly badge that you might not want to use because who knows what someone is going to use it for later?
Could you please clarify what exactly it is you think this situation has to do with congress?
See, it's the Supreme Court that you should be worried about, and to do anything about that, you need to be President(and a little lucky):

So wikileaks is hosting it with the expectation that people won't look at it?
Is broadcast media making your city council miserably dysfunctional too?
The problems you have with democracy are probably more related to getting what you asked for than they are artful manipulation.
Which company was first?
Many of them don't make particularly huge profits. For instance, Wellpoint makes a little less than 6% profit:

Not everybody files claims in a given period. The price of the insurance is based on how likely you are to file a claim. That's how it gets its name.
What a terrible definition of a monopoly that is.
