He sounds like ye has the same spirit as the lawyers in this article that are ambulance-chasing the Bush Administration, from the front of the ambulance. See my log or web page for more comments toward them.
For once, I can say that we sure could use FEWER lawyers (by individual choice, not government edict) and MAYBE they would spend their time on important things instead of this nonsense. Idle hands and all...
OMG! Emmanuel from 2600 and Off the Hook is using one of these GPS equipped cars to navagate the western USA right now! Just listen to the Jan. 15 2003 show at the link.
If someone jams a New Yorker in Nevada, what are the odds of them finding their way back to NYC without a subway map;-)
Many of the physicists still hold on to the idea that gravity works instantaneously no matter what the distance, an idea that originated by Newton, but that was argued against by Einstein.
So, if I put gravitons in a microwave will they go back in time?
That is not a bad solution, but some of the more advanced States, like Tennessee, have been doing that notion one better for quite some time.
We have "early voting", the electronic voting machines are setup in malls and other public areas around the time that absantee ballots go out. The voting stops on "election night" and the ballots are counted then.
My first ballot for Sen. Fred Thompson was cast this way about 8 years ago.
Gagging the media is just wrong. For once, the government has come up with a solution that seems to work well.
As for the Brittons and all of their smug "we do x better" nonsense, I have seen your House of Commons on C-SPAN. You can no longer fool us:-)
One more thing, before anybody pipes up about "costs", elections happen to be one of the things our government is *supposed* to be doing, so cost should not be an issue. Worry about cutting government costs where they don't need to be in the first place.
. . . Arthur Anderson was arguably/more/ dishonorable than Enron, since an accounting firm is supposed to stop such shenanighans, not find ways to facilitate them. In addition, it was at Arthur Andersen that the document destruction occurred.
I should have expanded on my objection to the treatment of AA.
The Justice Department destroyed the entire firm when one small group in that firm was at fault. There was no indication that this problem was system wide in AA.
It is the equivelant of pillaring all of Old Navy for one shop stealing creditcard numbers and reselling them while running a prostitution ring in the back.
I don't know about that, especially with all the corporate scandal that popped up at the end of last year. I think that many of those CEOs could seriously benefit from some jail time despite having not been a physical threat to society.
An appropriate opinion. However, I believe making these fellows dirt poor would be better justice.
As for the overzelous Justice Department that would not stop at Enron, they should go to jail for destroying Arthur Anderson and putting all of those people out of work.
Before the hackles of "doubel standard" rise, I hold government enforcers of law to a much higher standard than private citizens and advocate much tougher penalties for crime committed under the color of law.
All that aside, hell no a non-violent criminal should not be locked up. Some other punishment is much more appropriate, like restitution of *real* losses (no making the defendant buy a new security team) and community service, etc.
Jail *should* be for the people that are a physical threat to society, not a theoretical or financial one.
Before the thread runs off the topic, see my website for my position on the death penalty before assigning one to me.
True, but you might want to investigate why this is so. Perhaps there is something inhibiting them to make a free choice.
You imply that their choice was not free because it is not a choice that you agree with.
If we had women protesting that they were not allowed to choose, that would be one thing, but all we have is a bunch of grousing that women are merely making different choices.
The workforce now gravitates to choice by individuals based on ability and I find that to be a wounderful thing.
Humm, so having all of the opportunity in the world and choose not to join a field is somehow bad, or at any rate, is cast as not good?
This mangling of the language seems to be resulting in a mangling of ideals too. If women want to be in CS, fine, if the make a different choice that should be fine too.
TEN Seconds? For crying out loud! That is an eternity when my glass is empty! Human bartenders are much quicker, well after I get them properly trained.
Then again, this thing might be a lot faster with draft Fosters only, rather than having all of thos other confusing ingrediants mucking things up.

On FoxNews this AM they mentioned the commercials for Terminator 3 and The Hulk are going to be fetured too!

Get rid of our Socialists and then you no longer have a key element of fascism.
Yes, I am with you brother! Right after we straighten out the world AGAIN.
What is the password to my PayPal account? I forgot it a while back.
Thanks in advance!

It is not "random" at all!
They had this show called "Ghost in the Machine" that documented how this happens!
After I saw it I became a research analyst for Pierre Salengar . . .
Okay, so how do I start posting at 2 again?
Yes, I have "Excellent" karma and I leave the "No Karma Bonus" box unchecked.
Well, I just tried it and it did not do a damn thing for me.
Unless there is a delay, then this snotty comment will popp to the top at a +2 and I will get mod-clobbered, LOL!
Ah, thank you for the safety tip!

Man, this topic is so heavy...
"To my mind, this is irregular. It is un-English; it is un-American; it is French."*
Not sure if it is illegal, probably not, but it sure as hell is annoying!

caution, many popups and unders at that stupid link
Obviously they are Japanese cubits! They are a bit smallet than the others you listed.
Cubit^2
This sounds like an achievement of biblical proportions!
No thanks, I will stick to USENET for my porn, thank you verry much!
Interesting to note this article:The GOP of Lincoln (Chafee). The Greatest Title Never Used. A little language-rasslin'. And more where Brazil is now restricting print speech to eliminate "foreign" words. That bit is way down near the middle.
/.? No way!
Lots of other goodies in that column too that go along with this story and the objections some have to US media even reporting election coverage.
Objections to Freedom of the Press on
I especially like the bits about how the US media defines "left leaning" politicians.
That is not a bad solution, but some of the more advanced States, like Tennessee, have been doing that notion one better for quite some time.

blah.. the us is turning into "nazi-like" frenzy.
but insted of going after jews, they go after muslims.
Okay, I'll take the bait AC
LOL, no we are not going to become Socialists even with the efforts of Rep. Rangel and his buddies.
Just what sort of muslim attack are we doing anyway?
The Amnesty "illegally imprisoned" link reguards a pare-military group as common burgulars, the Rense.com link invents another class. Both have been addressed by the US courts and neither is addressed in Kevin Poulsen's article.

But nobody is preventing them from joining any major they like, no matter what it "looks" like.
As the real Ann Coulter says, just because it is counterintuitive does not make it right.
