Yeah those young college girls looking to earn extra money need protection from their obvious lack of morals. Agreed. I live in a small city and every September the "sex trade recruiters" are out enticing these young women with words like "escort", and "adult companionship", and of course promises of lots of cash.
College aged women are adults. Actually what I referred to was what the official police reasoning is. Underage girls being used in illegal acts, due to their not having reached the age of legal consent. What an adult male or female does with their own body is their own business, imo.
The reasons for this 'outing of johns' is meant to keep young impressionable women from being exploited by more worldly men of low moral character, I'm all for that, and history usually judge's a society by how well it treats it's women. In Maine everyone pretty much knows everyone else. This posting of names would have defamation of character lawsuits occuring constantly, if the state does not have complete proof that the accused is the actual john. Presently, letters do get sent to the addresses linked to license plates of cars seen in areas of prostitution. Perhaps it's time to legalize and regulate prostitution instead of ruining lives.
I realize human's will usually prefer 'instant gratification', but... Shouldn't we hold off on these great ideas until we have a fully capable moon base up and running. Hell, once we've established that (and worked out all the unforseen problems of a moon base), it will make lots of these ideas more feasible and cheaper to perform.
Now imagine you're in a starship race that passes near a black hole. Does it make sense to brag about how little distance you covered to finish the race?
That kinda' depends. Is one of the pilots vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan? (*ducks*)
FTA; “Once objects fall through the event horizon, they’re lost forever,” says lead author Shep Doeleman, assistant director at the MIT Haystack Observatory and research associate at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA). “It’s an exit door from our universe. You walk through that door, you’re not coming back.”
Thanks for that. Not everyone can view/. via a home computer screen with mouse. I was going to try to meticulously "select text" myself on my 2 1/2" smartphone screen and post the link, an excercise in futility at times.
After a few months of injecting all sorts of chemicals into the earth,.. 'Voila!', well water that can be lit aflame with a flick of your bic! Amaze your friends!
Remember when she asked the Apple lawyers if they were on crack? That seemed like an inciteful comment from her at the time, so now we are hearing more and more that she's mis-handled the case. All that money that's gotten wasted over this patent crap... Everytime I read about another twist in this ridiculous case, my head just shakes left and right several times. Such a complete waste of many resources all around. At least those poor lawyers won't go hungry.
Oh, see I don't know the/. history in many areas, been on/off reader for 3 years, just began to post a few months ago. I'd just went off a little bit there, I apologize if my 'rant' was uncalled for. I will try to keep refining my behavior on/. .
I didn't know that, thanks. 20 years or more ago I flipped a car going into a newly wet road curve, doing 50mph upside down. Nothing I could do once it started flipping, just watched out the window thinking, "Well, you don't see 'this' every day!" The 3point belt did me good, just some little cuts on my forearms from the sunroof splintering. Without it, who knows...
Thanks for that, nice to know. If I ever get out of my mom's basement and get a 'real' girl, I need to make sure she reads this. "There's your proof right there on the internet, honey, so it's really true! Now...":-)
I didn't say it was a lot of rat feces, but that there is some. And not every meathouse is working within US guidelines, you know that. And, off topic maybe, but I worked with a guy who filled and emptied the ships carrying orange juice. If I wrote here what he told me about what goes on, you'ld never go near oj again. Facts of life, but if you have a healthy enough immune system the stuff in food won't kill you. You might just get sick without knowing why sometimes.
I once worked for a guy who had "ESAD" printed in the lower left of his business card (he had, you might say... anger issues). Had to ask him what it meant, he told me, but that he tells his customers that it's an acronym for, "Excellent Service And Dependability". But that's not what you meant, huh?:-)
The U.S. govt. has always permitted small amounts of bone and rat feces in meat products sold. Yep, rat feces. And bone gets purposely ground up and added into hamburger meat. It's a trade-off between the convience of store bought or having to go out and kill my own food myself, then I have to spit out any errant buckshot.
To respond to all you 'perfect' people who've been piling on here...
Have any of you had a miscommunication, never made a mistake while trying to do your job? It was a screwup, yeah, so what? I swear, some of you guys who post are real jerks. Shit happens, get over it already. Go to your mirrors, all of you, and if you see someone who's never made a mistake, on the job and in private, then you're either a frickin' computer or a liar. F#@*ing whiny a#%$@#es!
Nope, submitter here. I have no affiliation with any website, I'm just a guy with an internet connection, saw this story via google news, and did a quick copy/paste, and that's the truth. No conspiracy here. Why? Does slashgear have a "history" on/. or something?

I believe the sharp edges of Saturn's rings are attributable to the shepherd moons...
Black holes, Supernovas, Saturn's rings are a giant buzzsaw... The universe is scary cool!
Dude, seek professional help. Seriously, that's some effed-up thought process you got going there.
I am so happy I pay by wire and never use my real name! Yay, go me!

...and why is it legal if a camera's rolling tape on the sex act? Then, it's called "art".

Hail Obama. Republicans suck. Religion is a farce. Come on, where is the Slashdot I've come to know - are we actually discussing the article?
Refreshing, 'aint it?
Now that you've purchased this app, add all forms of unneeded 'permissions' to it that will unneccessarily invade the user's privacy. Then... Profit!

Did others find the fact that the link to the "biggest ever update" was to slashgear reiterating this slashdot post, kind of annoying? http://google-latlong.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/making-google-maps-more-comprehensive.html
The link that slashgear links to.
