Sorry but if you can grandfather in then where's the beef? Really, are you being forced into buying these devices, in some cases for an obnoxious amount of money, and then forced into buying full blown access plans?
Oh you are, I forgot, the price of being cool. Really for whom do you think the iPad was made, you? Try again. Try the publishers and providers. I watch as friends blow fifty to over a hundred a month on their phones/devices for access and start to get new respect for marketers.
If you have a business need then fine, get them to pay for it. But wants cost money. Either put up or shut up. Apple has convinced far too many that to be cool they have to have X and Y.
because they cut us out and favored the publishers.
As for their music policy, I bet the arguments over only a 30 cent spike were not as heated as many suspect, frankly I would not doubt Apple welcomed it.
because there are some aspects, if not many, of law enforcement that are good.
Just because they are "the MAN" doesn't make them bad. Like any organization they have their problem people, but as a whole they have an important job which is required in any civilized society. Regardless of what some may want to think the world is full of people who really aren't suited for a civilized society. There truly are monsters out there and if there was not something to keep them in check life would not be as enjoyable.
Many of these people risk their lives so that we don't have to think about it, making them out to be the bad guy is really immature.
this one which he disagreed with (Along with Scalia) and the following, stating that juveniles would not be subject to life sentences unless homicide. Thomas was correct in that some juveniles are not on the losing in with lifetime incarceration. There are just too many cases where the threat and violence demonstrated by some "kids" justifies never letting them out again. Much of gang crime falls under this category.
The real problem with this ruling is today its sex offenders (which is odd because they vacated that in juvenile cases) but tomorrow what will it be?
Like you state, too many don't care about what they are studying, they are there because that is "what" they are supposed to do.
However, far too many colleges are there to make money, and scads of it. Hence the push for new lending programs because this allows the to inflate their fees. Whether to build new facilities named after people they like or too keep themselves fat and happy in retirement. I would go so far to say that many colleges don't care what the students study either, just as long as they are there paying the fees. Hell, look at the racket that is course books.
Too many degrees cost more than they can reasonably pay off in short order, by short I mean, less than five years. Sure medical professions if take to their furthest points pay off, but its not like TV, go to school four to six years and be the hero. Marketing drives more to college than need.
because except for a business need which is paid for by work, I do not waste money on plans like these.
In a day and age when people are complaining about not having enough money for this and that or worse, demanding government take money from others to relieve themselves of expenses they could help pay for in total or part, we have people who throw over a thousand at a cell phone. I know a few myself who spend a fortune and the phone does what most of the day, sit dormant, but they are so cool, I guess
My personal cell phone is paid by the minute, I don't care what work pays for the other one.
I guess I have not arrived at the point of cannot live without texting or e-mail while I am away from home or work.
NASA is insignificant compared things he has done and not done.
DADT is still the law of the land. We poured even more people into Afghanistan We still have Guatanamo Bay We have deficit spending that is simply unbelievable, its beyond stupid now We sitting around watching Iran build the bomb all the while apologizing to them and also ignoring them slaughtering their people We have a Justice Department who wants to not to read Miranda rights to people it calls terrorist.
Do I need to go on?
Hell, NASA is a rounding error in our budgets. It would be paid for in one Senator's pork many times over.
Damn, no wonder this guy got in, people are stupid
and this all Obama has done to make your blood boil, damn your a great little sheep.
In the US some areas charge you for having an accident. As in, you get into an auto wreck and all parties are charged a fee for emergency services.
So, in your scenario, your causing the police extra work by your negligence (just thinking out loud like a councilman looking for pennies in the couch would) and you should pay a penalty. Hell, we should be preemptive and apply a special tax to items you may own which thieves would want, a new desirable goods tax assessed yearly.
The government can force ANYONE to do ANYTHING. Never underestimate what government can do. If not directly they will do it indirectly, and if necessary undetected but that usually requires the target to vanish too
Face it, people have been more and more willing to ask the government to do things for them, who are they to tell when to stop?
No longer can government officials just hide behind friends in the press (print/broadcast). Very much how blogs turned up the heat on big media in 2004 it was a signal that many in government failed to see, that is, we the people can watch you, we can report on you, and we will.
Hence the little "trial balloons" floated about going after blogs and their commercial associations (reviewing products, people, etc). Anything to get some leverage on the new free voice. Can't wait for the changes to election laws going after blogs.
Nah, the blogs are grassroots and grassroots are the one thing DC is having a problem with. Trying to counter with their SEIU fake gatherings to offset Tea Partiers got exposed by blogs, not the news media. Face it DC, you can lie through the press but the press won't be our main source going forward.
It also works well for the leaders of other countries, namely Iran. Technology may for the short time give the regular person the upper hand until it can regulated into oblivion
Because there is no fixed target. For many your numbers may be too expensive, values set by greedy corporate types who eat babies.
That is why I think this survey is bunk. First off, they can feel good answering in the positive. It does not obligate them to give the feel good reply. Second, not only do you set a small dollar value on an episode you ladle it with conditions. Really, your numbers are ridiculous. I can imagine the grief you would feel if someone valued your output at such low numbers. By your logic why should software cost more than a few dollars?
Setting unrealistic requirements then complaining when they are not met does not make the other guy wrong.
I can handle the HLN format, it at least is quick and you know when there is news and when there is fluff based on the time. CNN is to news what MTV is to music videos, sure they have it but it seems to not be the focus. Fox is too flashy and the networks are too slanted to provide reporting. The state of broadcast news has forced many of us to use the internet sources that gather it all up in one area (google news is my primary but I will bounce to Drudge for fun)
That would be the worst situation. Everyone would be paying for use they were not getting. If anything that would allow the people who produce the licensed product to tax anyone who buys a down stream product regardless of intended use. Like the tax on CDs in some countries, everyone pays regardless of use. How is that fair?
maybe to sell it some mid level bureaucrat but the target truly threatened is any major port. Think about it, get your rockets delivered to enemies home turf and activate them when wanted. Practically no warning as downtown is just a few miles away. It opens a whole slew of targets all within reach.
After all, who is going to watch for the enemy to launch cruises missiles from within your own borders?
Russia needs money and they need street cred. They will shoot themselves in the foot if needed
the people who are firmly in the man made global warming camp will keep throwing things at the wall until something sticks.
In the last year or so it really comes across as if they are desperate to find an angle. When holes (read doubt) start getting punched in one idea they first defend it by relentless attacking those who question it and then they drop their stance and move to another idea. It really has gotten old. Too many of them have vested interest in companies that are making a killing off the whole FUD (both sides do it, but the MMGW side is king lately) and they just come across as bad marketers.
After reading this story it all comes down to, we are damned if we do and we are damned if we don't.
if your not willing to back it with responsibility of that expression?
In other words, Freedom of Expression does not mean freedom to slander. Too many people use anonymity to attack others so as to deny others the ability to respond in defense. Sorry, but calling someone a pedo and then hiding behind an anonymous id is just horseshit.
Either stand behind your words or don't bother. We don't need Freedom of Expression becoming a forum troll's fallback. Living in a world of false accusations and slander without recourse is not one I care for.
Yeah I can fully understand being anonymous versus an totalitarian government, but not attacking other citizens. Let alone Google knows the law in Brazil and its not allowed, how else was the judge to rule?
in place of Kenny. It would be much fun to see the Simpsons help out, with Bart writing on the blackboard I will bleep out all spoken references to Mohamed
No, they backed down for two reasons. The radical Islamic groups are known to carry out their threats. The current trend in upper American government is to treat these loons with kid gloves all based on this idiot idea if we are nice to them they will be nice to us. The fact is they totally dictate to the media what the media can say. One or more of their kind makes a real threat but others "the supposedly peaceful side" claims that its not what it seems and that the people who dared to say something bad about Islam are the real problem. It works out so well and we read about it daily.
They fear them rightfully so but their reaction is still wrong. The reason this fear and threat can persist is because far too many leaders want to act magnanimous in declaring they will turn the other cheek. This is nothing more than the good old policies of liberal lore where certain races are predisposed to violence, theft, or just need help getting an education because they don't have the ability to do good on their own. Condescending through and through
because frankly far too many people, researchers included, rely on people trusting then to do what they said not what is signed. It isn't beyond reason to believe that many of these tribal members are not well versed in contract law.

The American consumer will merely be laden with another tax for rules the rest of the world will ignore.
