If they blow it, the real 'assets' of Pixar can simply leave and go make another few million each.
In this age of non-compete clauses and NDAs on IP, chances seem better that Disney could rake these guys over the coals in court for their insolence. They might have made a few million here, but that'll be gone fast once Disney launches a drawn out court battle over claims of stolen IP for a post-Pixar venture.
Not only characters and likenesses, but all of those nifty inhouse production tools would have to be reinvented.
What exactly is the Blackberry service? What does this mean for Sprint/Nextel customers?
If this ruling would eradicate the crackberry addicts and the Nextel bleeping dipshits in one fell swoop, that would finally prove the existance of god.
They should also research the dogs that can sniff out cancer. I'm sure that would be a much cheaper (and more fun) solution for patients.
Doctor: I have bad news. You have advanced melinoma and have only a year to live. The good news is that Patches made the diagnosis! Didn't you, my good boy? Awww, now give the doomed patient some kisses.
It's a recipe for wackyness when a linux vs. bsd flamewar breaks out and the flamboyantly gay sidekick has a date with two men on the same night at the same time! Bronson Pinchot guest stars.
This is a takeover of the democratic process itself. The president is acting as a dictator by being above the law.
This is why his base loves him. To them, he's a maverick who won't allow stupid red tape to stand in the way of protecting the American people. The more he does it, the more they eat it up.
I've typically phrased it from the point of view of saving them time, e.g. "so, why don't you save yourself some time and hassle, and just hire me now?"
Many corporations have policies that require them to interview all qualfied candidates that submit for a job (especially internal candidates). A tactic like that would have to depend on the interviewer. Some may be impressed by it while others would be put off by the perceived cockyness and arrogance that gives off. No offense intended to the parent poster.
Very true. Some companies are dependent on intern labor in that fashion. Straight out of college, I interned at a record label where a large batch of interns did most of the office work and preparation for promo gigs (most not for college credit, but trying to get into the industry) . One guy who was an employee had interned there for several months (no pay, no college credits, just some free cds) before he was their mailroom sort of guy.
No, what they need to do is strengthen the windshield wiper motors. Damn near burned mine out trying to wipe off the little bits of crossing guard from yesterday.
I fail to see how this is superior to a Treo 650 with free shoutcast streaming audio. You'll have to once the providers wise up to this and block common streaming audio ports.
Why are you making your personal bad experience this other guy's problem?
In the mid-90's, a guy from my ham radio club wanted to recruit me into this MLM telecom scheme (Excel). To make the attendees salivate at the prospect of making money, they have one rep show up in a late model Porsche bought with money earned selling long distance service to dupes.
Not to accuse the GP of running a scam like that, but it seems like the he was using an exaggerated or atypical story of success to motivate.
I have no idea how relations are today, but at The University of Alabama in the mid 80s people who lived in greek houses and those that lived off-campus were constantly at odds over who should be elected to student council.
Ah a prank before our very eyes. A UNIVERSITY in ALABAMA?
Slashdot Mirror
If it does, just add water!
In slashdot terms, he wears the same kind of uniform that the guys who used to give us Slashdotters atomic wedgies in the locker room wore.

Nooo! Poor Emos! I can just see them shivering in a cold, dank corner
Don't worry, I don't let those pansies anywhere near my corner.
Since when do people in the real world have to abide by some rules created by a dead author for use in his science FICTION books?
*cough*SCIENTOLOGY*cough*

Hopefully, the computer will have a moisture sensor so it can reply "hey sylvester, how about the news, not the weather?".
How about a link to information on the "other" intentional back doors that exist?
*looks at clipboard*
Ok Goatse linkers, thats your cue.
How dare you ruin a good idea with your fancy facts and right answers!

How could you possibly be mad at guy who comes up with choice lyrics like this:
I am, I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all
Not even the chair

I had a halfway competent careers officer in my school and this book doesn't sound much better.
Are these the same people who think objective statements on resumes are a good idea? Why state the obvious and waste ink?

That place sucked.
Check Amazon for a book called "Final Exit". It'll be far less painful this way.
Are you allowed to declare bankrupcy if you owe money via criminal court order?
Nope, judgements and federally subsidized loans cannot be discharged by bankrupcy.
So the Trekkers who want to see Scott Bacula's show continue should lobby for the renewal of Fenterprise.
No, what they need to do is strengthen the windshield wiper motors. Damn near burned mine out trying to wipe off the little bits of crossing guard from yesterday.
Awesome, now I can play Stairway to Heaven without paying royalties.

I guess that lunar Ben Affleck and lunar Bruce Willis and their ragtag group of lunar drilling guys failed to blow up the asteroid.

A talking unicorn would've been more feasable.
