First you announce the discontinuation of the product you just brought out, so abruptly that the ads for them continue to run for another day or two, and institute a huge price cut (which means anyone who bought one at full price the week before will be an active HP hater for the rest of their lives), then, as people rush to buy them, you tell Best Buy to pull all their stock and ship it back, then you announce that you're going to build more of them.
Do they now have 3 or 4 different CEOs who take turns running the company every few days without ever talking to each other?
If Gibson hadn't made the Les Paul popular, or if the Les Paul hadn't made Gibson popular, but anyway, if the Les Paul guitar wasn't a popular guitar, nobody would want to make Les Paul shaped video game controllers because there wouldn't be any particular demand for them. Therefore the Les Paul shape, the thing that, when your eyes see it, your brain thinks Les Paul, has a commecial value, which Gibson has a legal right to profit from, and others do not have a legal right to profit from if they don't license the use of that shape from Gibson.
Schools are funded and controlled by the government to keep the neighborhood from filling up with illiterates. That's why they're paid for with property taxes, they protect property values.
Theoretically they also aid in assisting a self-governing people to be competent to self-govern.
If public schools are a disaster, it's because they have to try to do what they can for the children of people who shouldn't have had children.
Dr. James Corbett will probably find himself quite surprised to find that you've performed a sex-change operation on him.
And as he is "an advanced placement history teacher", I rather think that he might well be expected to touch on the topic of religion, since so much of history is influenced by it.
Why can't it be the both to which the OP referred?
It could be that "...God originally created life on earth...and uses Evolution to maintain and improve it.", or it could be that something else happened which may or may not have involved a Supreme Creator Being (and said being may or may not exist)
There's one place where The Bible says men shouldn't cut their hair or their beards. There's another place where it says men shouldn't have long hair.
There's one place in the Old Testament (one of those 1st and 2nd "insert name of book here" deals) where they're going through that long list of kings following David where they list a king, and his son (the next king), and the grandson (the next king after that). The immediately following double book set leaves out the son and calls the grandson the son and next king after the first one. Or maybe that's what was in the first double set and they included the son in the second set. I just remember the contradiction.
I really doubt that those two examples over which I stumbled by chance are the only instances of "inharmoniousness" to be found within its pages.
No, their plan is to find some way to not have their money taken in taxes in the first place, but since there's actually still a bunch of stuff they want to get from the government, your money is fair game.
Actually the article states someone else did the original drawings and another someone else did the clay mockup from the drawings. Ainsworth figured out how to make them out of plastic.
...And then they have the unmitigated gall to accuse the guy of piracy--the guy who designed and built the things to begin with!...
According to the article the original drawings for them came from Ralph McQuarry, whoever he was, and someone named Nick Pemberton made a clay mock-up from those drawings, so Ainsworth apparently just figured out how to make them out of plastic, which may have been quite a feat in and of itself, but that only gets him credit for building them, not designing them.
But the really important saying, several versions of which are attributed to Stalin, perhaps incorrectly, is the one about what counts not being the votes themselves, but rather by whom they are counted.
With paper ballots you can rotate who's at the top of the list, but with punch cards, or pretty much any other machine readable system, all the ballots have to be laid out identically.
I see that the site you link leaves out the Cleveland Plain Dealer pre-election polling, which had been famously accurate for years until Bush-Kerry 2004.
.... I live in California though. Here the Dems have 100% control over the state...
Which is why when the looting of PG&E came back to bite everyone on the backside, Democratic governor Gray Davis was able to escape any fallout and serve out his full term until another Democrat was elected to the office.

...metric is a totally superior system in every way ...
No, it is not.
It wasn't the Department of Justice, it was the Fish and Wildlife Service.
An "Ask Slashdot" doesn't need to be based on an article, just a question one of us wants to submit to the Slashdot community.
... some would argue Slashdot's quality is even higher now than it was when Jon Katz was around....
Well, considering what a nosedive it took because of Katz's presence...
...Watching my neighbors in New York shit themselves over a 16mph wind and slight mist last weekend ....
Before or after they knew how severe it would or wouldn't be? Do you have any actual personal experience with hurricanes?
That WHOOOOSH you heard wasn't the asteroid passing overhead, it was the joke.

Actually, since seizing it leaves the owner needing to replace it, it increases the chance of the wrong wood being harvested to fill the demand.

What First Amendment right was violated? The right not to hear an opinion in disagreement with one's own?

What evidence do we have that "He" doesn't exist?

My copy of TFA must be flawed. It refers to Dr. James Corbett as "an advanced placement history teacher", and not a "SCIENCE TEACHER".

...Voting intimidation is eliminated when you vote in your own home...
...and there's no one there to witness that you aren't being influenced or intimidated?
Really?
But the really important saying, several versions of which are attributed to Stalin, perhaps incorrectly, is the one about what counts not being the votes themselves, but rather by whom they are counted.

So instead of a ham sandwich, they just went with a ham?
Speaking of Florida, google "Ray Lemme".
...I fully concede that the whining over the 2000 election was unwarranted ...
Google "Ray Lemme" and see if you still feel that way.
I see that the site you link leaves out the Cleveland Plain Dealer pre-election polling, which had been famously accurate for years until Bush-Kerry 2004.
