I'm on lollipop and I just tried it. When you first run the app it lets you toggle the setting from the app - it does not shortcut you to the same menu that you encounter when you take the Settings path that I described earlier.
It's not quite that straightforward... the app sets the setting, it does not redirect you to the Accounts setup. I can see where the confusion arises, but at the same time if you have a Google account setup on the phone then I'm not sure why you'd be so infuriated at the phone sending information to Google.
I understand the confusion - the user was given a shortcut to a system function (sort of... it's actually an "accounts" function). The user did not know this was a system function. This is because apps are are allowed to mess with the accounts settings directly - a no-no for most other system functions. Android should probably find a way to make this explicit - the most straightforward (though less user-friendly way) might be to do what they do with the other system functions: the app can send you there, but can't actually change the setting. Another option would be to keep track of which apps have access to an account, and when one of those apps is deleted prompt the user to warn that the account is not being deleted, only the app.
The original bids almost certainly would have been higher if insurance was required. It's also not clear that insurance would be available (at a reasonable price) for such a new spacecraft. There is no way that one can save money by purchasing insurance unless they aren't in the game long enough to average out the catastrophic events. NASA should be in the space game for a while, I think.
How would insurance save money? Another middle man to pay. The only justification for insurance is when you need to smooth out the bumps in your spending - an individual may not have $30,000 sitting around to replace their crashed car. NASA can almost always slip a schedule; self insurance makes a lot of sense for them.
I think the scripts could be improved immensely with the money they now pay voice actors. The writing is the important part of that show, not the voices.
His show doesn't bother me so much for his views, which are common (though I agree not very thoughtful - he just parrots tired old arguments). But his delivery is just awful. Long, awkward pauses followed by mouth-smacking into the microphone when he thinks he's said something profound. Nothing even remotely entertaining happens. I switch over to regular radio and listen to mattress commercials.
They are there not to make the world a better place
Like all tools, the military can be used for good and bad things. If you don't like what the military has done over the last few years, take it up with the guys in charge - but it doesn't necessarily follow that we need shittier tools.
They are very newsworthy. Now we get to find out where he disagrees with the administration and how influential he really was. He clearly disagrees strongly with the President on this issue and this will put pressure on him. He did not wait long to "step out of line".
Exactly. Holder may be a smart, reasonable man but he is not able to act that way when in a position of "power". He may very well be more influential now in certain ways than he was while in office. We can't know how influential he was with Obama, but clearly we can see that he wasn't very influential as far as Snowden is concerned.
This is why it is important to keep low-tech, inexpensively operated planes like the A-10 around. They've been so frequently used that the wings all wore out and they put new ones on. You still want to have a credible air force to protect the aircraft carriers and interests in Asia. Stealth is important to keep adversaries on their toes if they think they have air defenses squared away. Maybe the F-35 is the wrong plane, but you won't get to that decision by looking at how much was already spent - just what it will cost going forward.
The supercharged version was actually more fuel efficient, but it raised the cost of the vehicle. They could not compete with the Chrysler minivan using such an expensive engine and had to introduce the Sienna, which had a normally aspirated engine (and 20 or so more horses).
The Previa couldn't get out of its own way. That's why the had to make the Sienna. Maybe you could get a more powerful electric engine in the same space, though. But it's a pipe dream for now - they can barely make affordable batteries for tiny economy cars... a minivan is out of the question.
I found $159 with no money down, but it's only for 7500 miles. If you only drive 7500 miles, you use far less than 250 gallons per year in gas in a Golf. Maybe less than 200 if you are on the highway. Even in a state with $3 gas, you are talking about $750 per year in fuel costs. Not worth it.
The comparable gasoline lease gives you 10,000 miles, so you are also getting less miles in the lease. I don't know what beelsebob's terms are, but it is very rare that a lease would be a better deal than a purchase.
I don't know what tricks your lease is pulling, but an eGolf is in the mid-30s and a regular Golf is at in the low 20s. That is a lot of gas money. If you live in CA, it would probably be worth it if the government is paying for much of the delta. In other parts of the country, you would need to see how long it would take to burn $3000-5000 worth of gas. For my little 20 miles a day it would never be worth it. For a longer commute, it would pay off sooner but the range would become an issue. That means you need a bigger battery, which increases the cost and then makes the payback longer.
It will happen, but it will take some more time for battery prices to come down. ICE engine costs will also go up as efficiency standards become more stringent. If the government removes the subsidy we are a long way off yet.
No I mean being Spanish she's probably not too fat.
TV has been a bad mommy's best friend for a long, long time. In the 80s we used to keep "TV logs" at school to show how much time we were watching and to try to encourage less viewing. There was even that infuriating period with "educational" VHS/DVDs for infants.
The absolute best was the period of time between the start of daycare and when my work ramped all the way back up. And frankly, then when the economic crisis hit and I found myself with half of the work. Lots of "me time":)

It's there, unless I'm being dense:
Settings -> Accounts -> Google -> (click on your account name) -> Google+ Photos.
I have both liability and collision.

"Wacking Day" is one of the best things that ever happened on television. Also, gay steel mills.

I am not Bill Cosby.
If you think that the people who hold office are the ones with the power, then I have a red and a blue pill for you to choose from.

This is not a manned mission, and not even the nuttiest nutter thinks that man is going to Pluto. You are trolling the wrong article.
I'm pretty sure that "fault" has a specific meaning in NASA parlance. There was obviously a software bug, but it probably didn't "fault".

First, it is Spain. Second, I would think that a fat person chasing a toddler would be even more exhausted than a skinny person.
