Except CBS isn't really left, they are entertainment news (AKA lets sell sexy news, a lot of fear mongering, the summer of the shark was a great example of that). You want left to balance fox, you should listen to KPFA or another Pacifica Station.
Because the numbers aren't close, there is a very good chance that there will be a net loss of jobs under bush, which has not happened under any adminstration since the great depression. Whereas Clinton presided over the greatest net expansion in the past 50 years. Bush has had a couple of good months, but Clinton had 96.
Whoever moderated these comments flamebait are facist pigs!
you want to know the economics of touring read these articles by a band that I think was/would be quite popular amoung the/. crowd. Then use your brain and do a little math and think of your favorite obscure band (think TMBG in 1988, remember these guys went years playing to venue where 20 people showed up)
browse happy quotes a bunch of articles, none of these articles really get into too much detail. As it is Firefox 0.9+ is pretty buggy, all of the bugs I have found thus far have been cosmetic and easily fixed, however if the obvious cosmetic bugs have left in, I am certain there are plenty of non-cosmetic exploitable issues in it.
The same thing was said about Henry Miller, now he is considered a great american novelist. The problem with obscenity laws are you and I have a different view of what obscenity is. There are many people here in San Francisco, who would consider Rambo obscene, yet I bet you can find it in Kansas Libraries.
I guess you only need one copy of a popular disc for all the libraries of Kansas. The CDs that were banned were actually quite popular and generally critacally aclaimed. These disks would probably checked out more that 50% of the time. They were banned because the AG didn't like what they were about.
Don't forget the $.10 per song sold mechanical royalty that goes to the songwriter. This royalty comes from the record company cut and is paid even if the record does not recoup
Tabulating where the money goes on a single track is completely meaningless, Not only that, but this particular break down does not take into account songwriter royalties, which are statutory, and come out of the record company cut.
They have the Google Toolbar which does track usage if "advanced" features are on. And they have their non-expiring cookie. If you don't think that google knows exactly who you are when you submit a search you need to get a clue.
What do you do for a living? Most musicians that I know do it because they love it, but due to the fact they can't eat, can't get away from their day job, can no longer sell records, want some stability in their life, have to quit. When they do, they deprive me of listening to their new great music.
I love how you expect to be entertained for free. Who is the greedy one?
They took us from behind and said "Hey that shit's for sharing. I love what you're wearing. Where did you get it anyway, and what did you pay?"
look at the economics of touring. look at something like pollstarfor the concerts in a good sized city, you will find 100 or more bands playing on a weekend. In that list there is a one band that will clear 10k, Modest Mouse, and probably someone at shoreline and the greek theatre, but then we need to bring up pollstar for San Jose, Oakland and Berkeley where there are hundred more small shows. However the average place has about 3 bands playing with 1 being local. The average venue in the pollstar list holds less than 200 people. If those 200 people each pay $10, that makes a door of $2000, split between 3 bands, and 5 members a band makes a take of $133 per person. even if the split isn't even the headliners don't get all that much more, say $200/person. They also had to travel to get there, gas, maintance, maintain their gear, guitar strings, drumsticks, tubes for their amps. They need to sleep somewhere (this past weekend the floor to my apartment was used for a band that is an absolute critics darling and on a very large indie label Matador, who pay their artists well). They need to eat, and probably can't very easily cook for themselves, since they have only a cramped van. You may say $200 is a good deal for a couple of hours of work, well, they had to get to the show usually driving several hundred miles, they had to load in, and load out, practice. Also you can't tour all the time, the more you visit the same city the less money you make per show as people stop coming, as they have seen you already. All in all it's a tough life that doesn't make too many people that much money. Man or Astroman? has a few articles from 1996 about the economics of touring you should read it before flapping your lips. I know people who do this shit for a living, touring ain't where the money is at, generally they lose money, if they are lucky they break even.
Playing live makes very few artists enough money to eat. Did TMBG who can fill large halls at $20 a head didn't say that. But further if you actually do the economics of playing live (resonable sized places great write up about this a few years ago. There are bands that make bank touring, but if you look at a big city newspaper, you will see hundreds of bands playing with about 5 making enough money touring to feed themselves for much longer than the length of the tour.
While a recumbant is really fast on straight flats, it is terrible with any sort of hills or technical terrain. Thus it would be one of those specialty bikes for certain time trials, or very flat road races. That would be terrible for the sport as it would once again make it such that one of the biggest components to winning is money. Clip on bars (which can be had for $50 are one thing), but basically requiring another bike is something entirely different. They have races for recumbants, if that is what you want to do then ride in those.
These are off the top of my head. This guy doesn't know what the conversion rates are, I didn't know how many cubic inches are in a liter which I needed today, so I fucking looked them up. Search on your favorite search engine for conversion factors this isn't news.
Hear Hear, this google worship amazes me. I think I have enjoyed far more free as in beer content from ABC/NBC/CBS than I have from google, yet you would never hear these guys adulated in the same way that google is. Yeah they use linux but so do plenty of other companies, unlike google they don't find it necessary to say aren't we so effin cool, we use linux.
That is not the case any more, there are reactors in production in south africa that can't melt down, even if they don't have any coolant. I think they are called pebble bed reactors.
The receord companies were fined for MAP pricing, which was there to help record stores vs stores like Best Buy which sells a small selection of CD's for below retail so that people would come into their stores for music and buy a TV for a huge markup. This really cut into the profits, not of the record companies, but music only stores such as tower records. Lowering the price of music would not have helped this situation since the electronics retails are already taking a loss on every CD sale. SO to prop up the record stores they made MAP (minimum advertised pricing) which gave a kickback to the record stores for their advertising if they advertised the CD at a certain price or higher (that price was not the same for all companies or CD's). It was not really a big deal, while the record companies a fairly small fine and where told to stop MAP, it didn't come close to criminal price fixing like ADM, where people went to jail.

Oh you mean how the swift boat guys clogged up the news for weeks with obvious bologna.

I bet albums I think are objectionable like Creed, Jars of Clay, and Amy Grant were approved.

They no longer make it but they can be found on ebay for a few hundred bucks and no I am not selling this one or one at all.
You don't even need to give everyone first world living conditions, basically if women are educated birthrates drop.
