I'm sorry, but SCO isn't playing with a full deck and have mistaken jokers for aces.
What's he got to say in all of this? Two of his companies fighting? He should get on the phone and tell one of them to read their legal documents better in the future and STFU now.
If you call having bodyguards, playing basketball & smoking pot serving your country, then yes. But the only reason he was over in Nam was an election year stunt for his dad. Al Gore Sr wanted to show the patriotic voters of TN that his son was pulling his weight in the war too, so he pulled strings and got him a position where paper cuts were the biggest hazard to his life. As soon as the election was over (and daddy lost), junior was back in the states.
Bush did fly jets for the TX National Guard. If he's the retard that people on the left say he is, he would have literally crashed and burned decades ago.
Don't worry. We're talking about bureaucrats, so it won't be implemented properly. Besides, unless the person has a wallet that keeps track of the exact time & location where the bills were removed, what's to stop bills used legitimately by the person that was robbed from being deactivated? Kill or just hospitalize the victim, destroy the wallet, and spend the money later that day.
You don't have to get married in the temple, so they can get married at whatever age is legal in the state. There may be some of that being done instead of the girl going down to the Planned Parenthood clinic and killing her kid. So that skews the nubmers too. But like you said, everyone assumes teenage pregnancies are out of wedlock. Some people would probably be shocked at how many people got married and had kids in their teens 40+ years ago.
As far as divorce and rape rates go, that can also have a cultural bias. LDS people seem to hook up fast. One of the 'stupid Y tricks' (robitussin parties?) urban legends was that instead of just shacking up for a few months like many do elsewhere, couples would get married and then get a quicky LV divorce. No muss, no fuss, thanks for the few weeks of sex. Some gals caught in the predicament of having their honor compromised by a one night stand may view claiming rape as an easy way to redeem themselves. Or it could be the same as anyplace else and they just report it more.
For guestimation purposes, just add 10% and for most cases it should be lower. If you are traveling to multiple locations where the sales tax is probably different, do you ask the clerk what the percentage is in every town you visit? I don't. If I've never been there before, I'll look at the receipt and make a mental note of it. To add futher confusion, the rates may be different depending on the products bought.
For business customers, having the tax included in the prices means that the money is cycled through the govt for a period of time and they have to fill out forms to get it back.
http://pcunix.com/Linux/linuxabi.html
and http://linux-abi.sourceforge.net/ do not say anything about requiring SCO shared libraries. My guess is that they would only be needed for those cases where a non-posix function existed in SCO's libraries and it hadn't been implemented in glibc yet.
In order to run Unix apps on Linux, customers must have Linux ABI and SCO's shared libraries. SCO's shared libraries could never be licensed outside of the SCO operating systems until today.
I've run apps compiled on SCO OpenServer and run them on linux using the ABI module. Unless RedHat is including these shared libraries in their distro, I've NEVER had to copy any shared library from a SCO system to get them to work.
The fact remains that any 1 of a million people could cut-n-paste copyrighted code into an open source project, and unfortunately the end users could end up being liable (since nobody else is).
They can cut-n-paste into a closed source project too. This isn't anything unique to open source.
The changelogs or logs of the kernel mailing list aren't enough proof of where the code came from? I'd bet that when this is all over with that the current people in charge of SCO move to Redmond, just like SGI's CEO after he ran that company into the dirt.
Yet another reason why the length of time that a copyright is valid needs to be drastically reduced. Widespread, free availability is the way that the artist can ensure that their work will remain available for generations to come. Copying someone's song and passing it off as your own IMO is theft. Copying it and giving the proper references to the author is free advertising.
Is there a reason that what any sane person would call a "zero" is a 400 on the SATs?
Grade Inflation. SAT scores have been one measure of how good the school system is doing and the scores were slipping. The secondary schools didn't want to admit they were graduating an increasing number of morons and the colleges didn't want to be seen lowering their entry requirements in order to admit the same number of students per year. The 'recentering' was a cheap, easy way to 'fix' the problem.
Given that people may not have a lot of warning, it would be advisable to have your own shelter. The time it takes to go outside and travel to a central shelter may not be available. Doing so may get you hurt.
You're making sense - prepare to be moderated down. The article with the quote doesn't say it's being cancelled because it could help terrorists. They just re-evaulated it and told the University to stop it. For all we know, some bureaucrat or congresscritter wanted the money spent for something else that was deemed more important 'due to world events' than this particular project. It happens to research projects all the time.
Then don't carry the typical debt load for someone in your income range. You don't have to max out a loan to what the banks are willing to lend you. If you go by your nightmare senario, then get a house/condo that you could afford with a shit job with a reasonable down payment, and then pay it off like you got it with a 10 or 15 year loan. If you have to get a lower paying job, you could continue to get by. If you did have to move, you will probably be able to keep some of the money you put into it, depending on how you've been paying off the loan. Just moving into a smaller apartment would certainly forfeit the deposit, which could be considerable, and some landlords can become jerks when it comes to enforcing leases.
The IT industry will continue to grow. The reason things are difficult now is because we're in a recession that followed a huge speculative boom caused by the internet that sucked a lot of people into the IT field that probably wouldn't have otherwise if it wasn't for the promise of big salaries. Once for-the-money-only types give up and move on to something else and the economy strengthens, salaries and the availability of jobs will start going back up. You can't outsource everything to India. Corporations still need geeks to run the data centers and write the in-house only programs. That's where most of them are employed now anyway.
But if you don't 'win the job game', you're still out on your ass. At least with a house, it can be sold and you have the ability to keep some of the money you've put into it. Your rent payment on the other hand, goes towards paying the landlord's loans or profit margins. A mortgage is probably the only thing you've listed that has some benefit to it. In my area, rents for decent places are usually higher than an equivalent mortgage, not to mention the interest can be written off. The problem is that people get too greedy and max out what they can get at the time and stretch it out for too long.

I would agree with that too. Don't worry about investing and all the other crap until you can get a working and sustainable budget worked out. Include as much saving in it as you can. Then after life is under control somewhat (it never is fully), then start with the investment guides after you have some money to work with.

The English part on the ACT lowered my composite score to a 31. The verbal part on the SAT did the same thing (down to 1340 - taken in 1986).
