We can assume they paid their taxes when they received their paychecks. Why should their heirs pay them again?
For the same reason why when I pay my plumber out of money I have that was already taxed, he has to pay taxes on it as well.
Money is usually taxed when it changes hands. Now I'll admit in case of estates it's not really practical because there are so many ways to get around it, and it also makes stupid situations happen, like if a parent wants to help an adult child pay for an expense they have, they are limited to the ~$14,000 a year gift limit without the kid being taxed as well.
So I admit it's a stupid law, but saying it's already been taxed is not a good argument against it in my opinion.
I retired at 53 from technology. I still do work part-time but don't need to. The key was to live well below my means for those years. Like I could have bought any kind of car I wanted but took public transit for 20 of my working years and my wife and I just had one car.
Yes, I know, after the copper wire hits a switch of some kind, it probably gets routed over IP anyway, but at least with copper wire to your house, you almost always have a dial tone, hence 911.
I held onto my copper POTS line for years because of that. But it kept going out and I kept calling in for service. One time my wife called me and said the Verizon guy wanted to get into the basement. I was like "NO. THEY ONLY NEED TO FIX IT AT THE BOX OUTSIDE." She said he insisted he had to get in, so I had her put him on the cell phone with me and he said he had an order to install FIOS.
Of course I never signed up for FIOS so they had to requeue my service call. After a year of it going down about once a month, they finally won. I disconnected my POTS line and got a $12/month Vonage plan.
I take Vicoprofen (for migraine pain). It's mixed with Ibuprofen instead of Tylenol. It still makes me sick all day after taking it. No idea why people abuse it.
For me it comes down to a choice between being in horrible agony all day or having no pain but stuck in bed feeling dizzy and like shit all day. I'll take that over the pain.
Now there may be some anti-nausea I can take to counteract some of the negative affects, but I haven't asked my doctor about that because the effects now ensure I won't abuse it and I don't want to know otherwise I guess.
Yeah, and that makes sense. And that can be leveraged by smarter folk. Problem is, there's a lot of folk who buy into the world is ending tomorrow, buy gold now, constantly -- especially those who hate the current President. They are preyed upon by companies who sell gold. My point is, it's not always a safe investment, it's an asset for a larger portfolio that one has to be smart about, like any other asset in a portfolio.
Gold hasn't been so hot for the past two years from looking at the chart, where stock market has.
Gold is a gamble like any other investment. The value of my dollars may slowly degrade over time, but it's unlikely to lose a quarter of its value over night.
This won't kick in until the expansion comes out, so it won't be to max level. You'll still need to level it through the expansion. So there will be some learning involved still.
Hopefully the expansion leveling takes a bit of time. I was up to 90 after just two zones in MoP and skipped most of the rest of the zones.
My question is, can a new account do this right away or do you need to get at least one character to 90 the hard way first?
Yeah, sure, Google will do that with future emails from that marketer. But what about when your email is sold to others or that same marketer just sends again using a different address?:(
Interesting.
I tried. My 3-month old firmware-upgraded Buffalo DD-WRT-based router has an option to enable ipv6 but nothing happens. Finding docs is a bit difficult.
It shouldn't be this hard if this is going to work:(
Comcast brags (http://comcast6.net) that they are the largest ISP that supports ipv6. Oh wow, cool. I have a new modem that supports it as well as a home router.
So I go to figure out how to do it and find that they are only assigning/128s (single IPs) to only certain markets.
Who has a single computer hooked up to the Internet at home and nothing else?
No wonder it's not going anywhere. Even early-adopters can't get on easily without tunneling or other hack.
True. Heck, even when I was as young as 8, the routine was to come home from school, eat, then go out and play. The only rule was I had to be home by the time the street lights came on. In the Summer I'd be gone all day.
When I was a teenager in the late 70s, there was nothing to do except jump in the car and drive down Main Street and yell out the window to friends loitering in front of the bars, get to the end, come back and do it again, over and over. ("Cruising") or just go on a lot of joyrides.
If I had an xbox or ps4 back then, I'd have probably been on that instead.
I own a very short domain name where the first part of the name is the same as many organization's name.
e.g., if it was example.com then others have example.co.uk or exampleinc.com etc and I get a LOT of their email because I wildcard my domain for email and people just assume that example.com will work
As I get them, I add a postfix rule to reject that specific username but I still get stuff, including very confidential stuff.
I haven't advised these organizations because I fear they'll just turn around and try to dispute to get my domain or accuse me of criminal interception or whatever. So I just delete them and they can wonder why they never got a reply.
Rule #1: "Email is not a guaranteed service."
Rule #2: "Email is not secure. Stop sending confidential stuff through it"
The reason for timezones is to somewhat coordinate daylight with when we are up and about. Obviously this can be shift a bit each way and the seasons certain screw with that, but on the plan OP posted, the west coast would be light until after 1am in the Summer and remain dark until about 10am in the Winter.
If you'd want to do two zones, they should be at least two hours apart from each other.
So Pirate Bay goes around and getting new IPs and I assume releasing the old ones. Then what? Imagine getting a new netblock for your own stuff and finding out it used to be a PB IP. How do you go about getting that unblocked all around the world.
One of the MAIN reasons these ISP's are introducing tiered pricing is simply to avoid the costs of upgrading their infrastructure. Instead of modernizing their networks and equipment to handle today's higher demand for more and more bandwidth, they simply implement overage fees and/or tiered pricing to keep people's usage within the confines of what their infrastructure can handle.
Sorry, it's really the opposite. They have little economic incentive to expand capacity now. If they charge for overages, they'll have more incentive to entice you to use more bandwidth so they can increase revenue, and a great way to do that is making a faster pipe and encourage you to use services like Netflix to use it up.

Your international phone with roaming would still go through their towers and potentially be blocked.

No. Their imessage chat bubble turns green to let them know their message will go out as a text and not an iMessage -- but it will work.
I wonder how Americans would feel if/when Spanish becomes the dominant language. It's already happening in some parts of the country.
Damn, that doesn't sound like much fun. Sorry you had to go through that. :(
Thanks for the warning. I don't take it often enough to probably hit that. The ibuprofen dose is only 200mg, which is one OTC pill.
I pretty much take maybe 1 or 2 a week at most as needed, but they keep me out of the hospital or urgent care place so it's worth it.
(Annoys me that pain pills are hard to get for people who really need them because some people abuse them...)

Not true. If you're willing to reduce your usage from a few hundred gigs a month to just 5 gigs a month, you can save $5 in some markets.
http://customer.comcast.com/he...
If you go over that pathetic amount, you end up paying $1 a gig. /snark
I wonder if anyone actually thinks this is a good deal.
Yeah, sure, Google will do that with future emails from that marketer. But what about when your email is sold to others or that same marketer just sends again using a different address? :(

They forgot all of the companies they've bought and closed down, like Gizmo5
Oh wait, never mind.
