So you can keep your job... And look like the hero to the boss after "saving" all their hard work after the user stupidly opened a virus on a company PC.
Amazon don't state the basis that they used to compile the list of candidates. Each election there are a couple of thousand people who file for president, so there has to be a cut-off at some point. Probably sending reports to the SEC.
RTFWP...
It clearly states in the FAQ's- How does Amazon select candidates for listing?
Candidates eligible for listing are those that have lawfully established and maintained a campaign committee with the Federal Election Commission (candidates can receive contributions only through such committees) and who, according to the FEC's monthly report, have raised/spent in excess of $5,000.

Of course, would it be so difficult for ISPs to stop advertising "unlimited" access, and instead include in the small (or not-so small) print exactly what the "acceptable" bandwidth usage is?
We did this in like 99 at the ISP I used to work for (until I was restructured out of a job). I rewrote the TOS as such;
Unmetered or Unlimited Accounts
XXXXXXX.net sells un-metered accounts for interactive use. In the industry, these accounts are sometimes referred to as ?unlimited?. Member understands that un-metered or unlimited service does not mean the availability of a constant, dedicated connection. Rather, un-metered or unlimited service means that the holder of an account must be actually, personally using the service while an account is dialed in. Users are not allowed to pin up a connection under any circumstances. In other words an un-metered or unlimited account exists so you can enjoy using the Internet without having to keep an eye on the clock and normal usage charges. However, XXXXXX.NET reserves the right to cancel or refuse access to any account that uses the service in excess of 300 hours per month. An hourly usage rate of $1 per hour may be assessed, at XXXXXX.NET?s discretion, on usage that exceeds 300 hours. It is the user?s responsibility to monitor their usage. The user may also elect to change the type of account if they are in excess of 300 hours per month on a regular basis.
So if we assume the electrical signals of his packets travel at the speed of light (186 000 miles per second) across the internet (which they don't really, but we'll ignore that for this argument), then logic tells us that the internet must have less than 16,070,400,000 miles of cable in order for this to work. Because his data cannot travel any faster along the pipes.
And that's only one way... Assuming query and response, his packets have to effectively travel double the existing cable lengths.
So do all the (public) networks in all the world total less than 16 trillion miles of cable?

Allison built a program that sent anyone sharing a Toad song an invitation to join Phillips' mailing list, and they decided that if it looked promising they would start a business. "The opt-in rate was 20 percent!" says Zack's father, Tom. "A good opt-in rate is usually 2 or 3 percent."
Translation: They SPAMMED the users downloading those songs!!!
We gotta be able to turn that against the record labels somehow...
While I was away for a couple days, one of my friends messages me frantically that his PC isn't working; freezing, BSOD, etc. A few messages later he has an explanation;
He pulled the case off to check if any of the cards were loose in their slots and to make sure fans were all spinning. Putting his fingers under the video card to check the fan, he encounters something soft/fuzzy. WTF? He pulls out the card to find a moth seriously lodged into the video card fan (and quite dead). Thus stopping the fan and frying his vid card (GF4). Near as he can figure, the open slot cover directly beneath the video was attractive to the moth as a nice warm dark place. It flew in only to be sucked into the vortex of the spinning video fan.
(1) define the term `peer -to-peer file trading software' for purposes of this Act, with such definition to encompass computer software that enables the transmission of computer files or data over the Internet or any other public network of computers...
So any and all networking software is illegal. Hell... tcp, ftp, et. al., are all illegal. Well shit.. the whole damn internet is illegal, along with every bit of software that accesses it and/or makes it possible. No more networks, anywhere! Because networks spread child porn!
the reviewer got the lower end. there were many other configurations available.
This HP Compaq d220 desktop box came with... 40GB IDE hard drive spinning at
7200 RPM
However, if you need more speed or more memory, both are available. You can go all the way up to a 2.80GHz Pentium 4 processor with 533MHz front side bus and
512MB of DDR memory.
I'd have to agree with your other statements, though.

I'll have my headphones on and they will be blocked out.
That's where you are completely wrong. There is no sound coming from the outside to be blocked. The sounds do not occur until the waves hit the bones inside your head. Your headphones can't block them.
Go back and read the whole article, it explains this.

Should have coded it to backup their home dir (or mydocuments) to a hidden dir on the server and then Delete it and their local copy.

13 seconds huh?
Then it BARELY beats a '89 Plymouth turbo MINIVAN. (and would lose to some.)
Please crawl back to your ignorant hole.
Last time I checked...
40-50,000 dialup and several thousand dedicated/leased/T1/frame customers.
If you pay attention, that's a dialup TOS. Pinning up a modem for 300 hours is insane. That's 12 hours a day.

IANAS (I am not a statistician ;) )
If you go by percent increase, they've been averaging 115.5% increase every 4.5 months.
If they keep that up, they'll hit 588GHz in March 2004, 679GHZ in late august 2004.
By June 2005, they'll be breaking 900GHz.

here in the real world; 143 - 93 = $50
