Testing cosmetics on animals continues because sometimes products produce detrimental actions. It's not that they sit in a lab and think, "Hey, what does this monkey look like with green lipstick" it's a "Let's test to make sure the green pigments won't cause the monkeys lips to fall off".
For what it's worth, I once worked at a primate testing place. I went in fully expecting to get annoyed at useless testing and figured I'd quit. It's nothing like that at all.
I used to use the term "American" as in "From the US of A" but as I started to travel in other countries, I quickly learned that it's a confusing thing to say. American includes Canada all the way down to Argentina. North American, Central American, South American. It's not that "Canadian" isn't understood, but I've talked with people who've had problems and I've been bitched at by people when I'd use "American" to mean "from the US".
I say, "I'm from California" and sometimes "I'm from the US". I'm not a fan of USian either. The only place I had to clarify California was in India. I was there when Bush was leaving and Obama got elected. Most Indians love Bush. He let them buy nuclear power plants without signing the non-proliferation treaty.
You mean '80s and early '90s Toyotas and Mazdas where one key will open up most any lock?
Not counting older cars than that, such as MG, where one key (or a pen cap) will turn any key. Speaking of pen caps turning keys, do you remember Krytonite? They learned from their very expensive lesson that a pen cap can open up all their locks. They switched them at a huge cost and kept up their fan base.
Like the 1960s motorcycle that Sears sold. The Puch Allstate twingle. Two stroke, two pistons, single cylinder. Engine design, like most engine designs, was first tried before 1920.
I sold my Sears, but I ride a Montgomery Wards Riverside 2 stroke.
I'm not sure about 7th Heaven. They hire lots of comedians some of whom were on "The Aristocrats". Ed Begley Jr, Richard Lewis, Edie McClurg are a few. Peter Graves is still up in the air.
That's American movie theatres are popcorn stores. It hasn't been so bad in other countries.
I've managed a couple of art house theatres in California (hence the fancy pants way of spelling theatre).
I've been in theatres in India, South Korea and New Zealand. Concessions in India and Korea are dirt cheap. Same as buying stuff at a corner store. I think they were cheap in New Zealand, but in NZ, I was buying good beer for around 3/bottle. I don't remember the price of popcorn because I was amazed I could buy a bottle of premium beer without the huge American mark-up.
If you read the story, Greenwald writes about several accounts of newspapers sitting on stories to help President Bush. The NY Times sitting on the illegal wiretapping of the US for a year until after the election at the request of Bush was one. Then there's the stuff the Washington Post held onto: the CIA black sites. And the mention of creepy David Finkel for the Post holding onto the same "Collateral Murder" video.
Plus we now have Obama cracking down on leaks with prison terms. Not going after the illegal stuff that caused the leak, but the leakers themselves.
Basically, wikileaks is the best option. I wish Manning had been quiet but he's 22 and wasn't thinking the whole thing through.
Once they started fining the employee, as well as the business, is when they lost it. I guess you were in a town without much ABC presence. It's pretty bad in Sacramento.
I remember visiting Illinois and the bar wouldn't sell me drinks with my California drivers license.
I think bars should 18 and there shouldn't be a time limit on selling booze. Just to go even more off topic.
If you try to use a national ID at a bar in California, many will tell you to fuck off. I didn't know we had an option for a national ID card, but with passports many bars/stores won't serve/sell. I don' t know if it's legal, but that's Sacramento.
I don't think they stored the passwords (even so I changed my password after letting fb have it), but I'm pretty sure they keep track of everyone you have emailed. I started a work email and it suggested most of the same friends. Even though it was in a different country with a slightly different name. Unless of course, they figured someone with the rare last name of "Smith" must know all the same people.
I'm not a business but I understand that reasoning.
As near as I can tell, they wouldn't be defending me. It's my problem. I had a copyright attorney on retainer over this. I don't want to push the issue with Pair. According to Chilling Effects, the attorney who issued the complaint had 14 days to sue.
It's odd that I'm the only client of Pair who disputed a DMCA.
I wrote a journal about my problems with Pair. I've been happily using Pair for many years, and still use them, but they told me to start looking for another provider.
Pair told me they'll remove my entire site if they get another DMCA request about my posting 17 out of 600 questions from the MMPI. It's the same issue that slashdot has posted before. My problem is, the same attorney from the previous slashdot article, Carl W. Covert, Jr. from NCS Pearson, Inc., sent Pair two DMCAs about the same page, two months apart, and Pair hasn't had a customer who sent in a non-compliance response.
With my first DMCA, I went to Chilling Effects and used a boilerplate response. I had a copyright attorney check it before sending it. The DMCA says they have 14 days to sue. I asked Pair if it was settled after 14 days went by and only received the "we received your response and will respond". I figured if they ignored that, then the issue was settled. After two months, I got the same DMCA from the same attorney about the same page.
Pair removed my page for 14 days and sent an email saying that if they get another DMCA they will remove my entire site. My site covers a Star Trek band, Sacramento punk rock history, and an outdated blog about riding a crappy old motorcycle round the world. Now I'm in Korea, trying not to fight with an ISP that I was happy with, over 17 questions.
After having to badger Pair for a response, I finally got this:
Dear Dave,
I apologize for your confusion and I also appreciate your conviction. However, pair Networks is a web hosting provider, not a law firm. Our job is not to interpret the DMCA or the law in general, but to follow it. Lawyers are very expensive, and the bottom line is that our Service Contract states that we can terminate all or any part of an account for any reason without notice. In this case, we are giving you fair warning that to keep your site online, the best thing for you to do is remove the contested material. While we appreciate your business, We also have to look out for our best interest. While I understand that it causes a moral dilemma for you, the bottom line is that, if we receive a restraining order, we are not going to fight it; we are going to follow our lawyer's advice and disable the site as a whole. If you want to proactively avoid this situation, then you may want to look into moving your site to another provider. We are not trying to push you away with this statement; you always have the option of simply removing the content in question.
Where you live must not be California. There was a/. story about a1st responder losing a suit over this a year or so ago. I wonder if this bill addresses that.
I like how I got modded flamebait. Either someone hasn't visited, or let alone lived in Korea, or a Korean has modpoints.
I have no idea how many teachers answer phones while teaching in class. Koreans drive while on the phone, but they do tend to slow down and take up both lanes.
I am in Korea, so driving, being on the bus, being on the train, walking, watching a movie, eating at a restaurant, teaching a class and having sex are all good times to answer the phone and have long and conversations.
Maybe that's why Koreans hate Japanese (besides Dokdo is ours!).
When it started, you didn't approve anything. And I hadn't heard of beacon or what it was. It outed me on yelp reviews that I had under a different name with a different email. Mildly embarrassing since I gave a friend's restaurant an honest (read bad) review. I figured it was under a different email so I was safe. Not at all.
Yeah, you're right. It's been a long time since I've heard IRL about cassette drives.
Unless you actually meant IRF - Incident Report Forms. Those 120 minute cassette tapes are unreliable.

He could've hacked into the mainframe to copy the database. I'm sure he had plenty of cassette tapes with him.
It sounds like McGrew picked a bad day to die.

Same with 4chan for google now too. They're not cached which is probably a good thing.
At least you weren't evolved from a panda.

Wasn't "Independence Day" funny bad on purpose? Like "True Blood", "7th Heaven", "Get a Life" and "The Secret Diaries of Desmond Pfieffer"?

The Gizmodo article says the guy has the tracking numbers from calling Apple.
Both sides suck in this case.
Custer's Revenge?
Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em?

Adblock blocked it from me. I had to disable it on FB so I could block it.
Then I saw my wife in an add for match.com. As soon as she gets home, I hit her with the divorce papers!
Seriously, it blocked it. Unblock. Make switch. Reblock.
