If you can stream it, you can download it. Check out the DownloadHelper extension for firefox. I use it on myspace, youtube, etc. Very easy to use. Fer sure, but I mention it because the first band I linked offers the mp3s, all metadata included and all. 's nice The other band, who has a wider distribution channel, doesn't offer them to non-hackers.
The biggest hurdle in "internet tv" is that ubiquitous "Black Box" that consumer electronics manufacturers have been searching for decades to decades to find. The 360 and the PS3 are the first iteration in what will be the future. The 360 is offering essentially basic cable to 360 owners this fall and I am certain that the PS3 will have something similar, especially since Sony owns a huge catalogue of films. Which is probably why all the gamers are keeping store shelves clear of Wii boxes and allowing those consoles to gather some dust before a sports fan feels the need to kill time between seasons with electronic reenactments of his adored teams and buys the necessary hardware for that purpose. They aren't actually game consoles, they're media hubs that happen to play games.
Of course, all I know about MySpace is that's it's for personal blogs and such. It's only used by people who want to put their lives on the web, and mostly teens. Then again I've never even visited myspace.com, so what do I know. I go to mySpace for bands: They put samples and tour dates.
Here, do you like horror punk and/or psychobilly? Then enjoy Zombina and the Skeletones! And I found these guys through Guitar Hero: Freezepop (stream only, no sample free MP3s). MTV is dead, long live MySpace!
As TFA says, the Casino contacted the winners about the fault, and several of them agreed to give back their winnings. (Total losses for the casino were nearly $500,000.) Oh, the poor, poor casinos!
They lost nearly half a day's profit? How awful! Clearly, the people who won more than the casinos had intended for them to win ought to be jailed! Nay, flayed alive and fed to rats!
Being a drummer myself, the kit for the game looks passable, but most drummers I'm sure will find it somewhat lacking. Lol, Tom Sawyer on one pedal and 4 pads hehe. You lose a lot when you map all the extra bits down to 5 triggers. The fun for drummers certainly won't come from playing your favorite songs on this kit, that will always be better served on a real kit. I'm pretty sure real plumbers found Mario Bros to be somewhat lacking too;-)
If he thought it was a bad thing, and tried to outlaw it anyway, but succumbed to it anyway, he would not be a hypocrite. "People who do this should go to prison except for me" is hypocrisy. Big time.
Oh, and who cares what the politicians do on their own time. I care when they try and tell me what *I* can do on my own time. I don't care when they don't bother.
Ironically this deal and others like it have gotten an enormous amount of bad press in Alberta - you'd think we'd be happy to export this crap, but the local media can only see the $$$ lost in not refining it ourselves.
So it's bad for everyone except BP, whoever they bribed to get around environmental laws, and 80 people in Indiana.
Unfortunately, those other nasty low-standards places are soverign nations. They don't like other people telling them what their rules should be.
So we should just not trade with people with lower standards? That would be illegal now. Against the WTO practices. So it isn't likely to happen unless the rest of the world gets behind the idea. 1- The USA has been bossing them around on everything, INCLUDING on keeping them in low standards. Seriously, read up on it, you sound as ignorant as if you'd been relying on the American mass media to keep you informed, that ain't healthy.
2- It's called an embargo, there's plenty of those around.
3- It's called the UN, that's what it's there for.
P.S. If you plan on bot-replying some stupidity about how the UN is baaad, go get your wool harvested instead.
This is what happens when we open markets and start competing with 3rd world countries. We have to relax our standards so that we can win contracts from multinationals. The only winners are the corporations. The proper way to do this would have been to raise the standards elsewhere, rather than exploit them and then be forced to compete with their slave-wage standards.
They key isn't to close up the borders in some protectionist ostrich stunt, but to demand high standards at home and abroad. But I guess very few people are interested on competing on a level playing field.
If it's good for the canadians then it must be ok. It's good for Alberta, it's bad for the Canadians out east who'll be getting the flow from the polluted lake.
If people were meant to be private (and therefore solitary? I don't know) then we would not have evolved as a gregarious species. Children behave That's what they say when we're together And watch how you play They don't understand and so we're
Runnin' just as fast as we can Holdin' on to one another's hand Tryin' to get away into the night And then you put your arms around me And we tumble to the ground And then you say

If someone is a biological imperative, we would be proactive about defending ourselves to protect our biological functions. If you're cold, you shiver. If you're still cold, you put on clothes. If you don't, you die.
If you're thirsty, your mouth gets dry. You drink water. If you don't, you die. If you're seen in an embarrassing situation, you blush.
I never said he wasn't a decent guy. It's just that, by themselves, the facts that he was the "world's toughest bouncer," played likable fictional characters, or donated a lot to charity don't say anything about his stance on various issues or whether he'd make a good politician in general. It may be that he'd make the best President since Jefferson, but we just don't know without a lot more information (gained via interviews, debates, etc.).
I know, but I just wanted to show that his character is not fictional.
HOWEVER, I find it eerie that you seem to think that interviews and debates lead you to actual information on a politicians' aptitudes for leadership or into their actual beliefs and convictions. Don't forget they have campaign managers and publicist, and they'll tell you what you want to hear.
The two rovers on Mars now have been ridiculously successful and have outlived their expected lives tremendously. They were expected to fail within months because of dust. They didn't, but apparently that's not enough for people to see that dust isn't that big of a deal. Meh.
We need Mr. T for president, or at least Secretary of Defense.
I PITY THE FOOL who wants to elect somebody based on their performances as fictional characters!
Mr T won world's toughest bouncer, twice. The second time got him noticed by Stallone, and a chance to be a fictional character. Before that he was an MP, he legally changed his name to "Mr T" so everyone would have to call him mister, and T is for tough (and booker and his real initial).
He invested his money in gold, which he wore around his own neck, all 60lbs of it. If you want it, you have to come get it from him. He donated most of said gold to help the victims of Katrina, he beat cancer, etc.
Bill Hall, a spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services, said that the administration disagreed with Dr. Carmona's statements. "It has always been this administration's position that public health policy should be rooted in sound science," Mr. Hall said.
You may want to use other sources for maps instead of Google, perhaps Mapquest I too enjoy the antics of Jon Stewart:-) My point was that Google maps etc. aren't above big brother, they'll get pixelated whenever our great and older sibling decides it is just to do so.
george orwell is bullshit. the future of cameras everywhere is that they can be used AGAINST big government Why don't you have a look at Cheney's house on google maps. Can you see anything you could use 'AGAINST' him?
Couple this with a nice, but small capacitor, with a capacity for 2-3 shocks (probably 5-15mA per discharge will be sufficient), and you've got a nice little pacemaker that recharges itself.
Amusingly, self-charging pacemakers have existed for the better part of 40 years. Pacemakers used to be powered by radioisotopes which had a power-producing lifespan far in excess of the patient's remaining expected lifespan. The only catch with such pacemakers was that they had to be removed after death to recover the valuable Pu-238 materials for remanufacturing and reuse. Rare fuels that provide power for decades are NOT self-charging mechanisms. They're burning up fuel, big difference.
If anything, right wingers support science even MORE. First off, we have a relentless need for new products that only scientific research can genuinely provide. Then, to get that product around the globe we've needed advances in everything from transportation to logistics, bringing in jet aircraft, super sized ships, massive cranes, computers, containers, along the way. Finally, to ensure that the reach of our consumer free trading system is global, we pour hundreds of billions of tax payer dollars every year into military research, so that, if we can't reason our way into our superior system, we can at least help those who are more backwards still to see the light. Greed and might makes right.
It's not a miracle. The guys in the store knew there was a customer with an easily troubleshootable problem coming, so they used the Woz Phone to call Woz. [...]
Nanananananananananananana-- WOZMAN!
Yes, that is what goes as "funny" when you're sleep-deprived. I might need coffee, 'cause that made me laugh;-p

"The Advancement of Sound Science Coalition (TASSC), an organization that was covertly created by Philip Morris for the express purpose of generating scientific controversy regarding the link between secondhand smoke and cancer."
They have recently been mostly funded by the oil lobby for the express purpose of... well, you can deduce that last bit.
*shudder* So much pasty skin...

Couldn't it be diverted from it's propaganda goals to also filter for malicious traffic?
