This is called crony capitalism. The response is to reduce government power and oversight so that it is not possible for it to exercise such control over the market. Of course, instead we do the opposite.
I'm not going to say it's impossible, but in case you didn't realize that football players are tested for a ridiculous number of performance-enhancers I'm going to tell you it's very unlikely.
It's different with shoes. It's not so much the padding, but the way the shoe is shaped and how it prevents your foot from contacting the ground in the same way. You roll your foot differently because there's a shaped chunk of rubber in the way.
It's a biscuits'n'gravy place. I do have to ask what's wrong with "Bojangles", though. You do know it was Bill Robinson's nickname, right? If that's racist, then so is "Coolio" or "Dr. Dre".
I have a 40 inch screen and it's very hard to see the difference between anamorphic DVDs upconverted to 1080P and Blu-ray. The digital surround sound improvement is actually more noticeable, even in 5.1.
I laugh at people like you who throw around the word "fascism" at people who point out the actions of an overreaching state that are actually characteristic of fascism.
Your dislike for Ask Men has no bearing on the validity of the data. The fact is that most states have antiquated alimony laws that come from an era when women relinquished their property rights to their husbands and thus were entitled to full support following the divorce. Only a few states have moved to alimony that is intended to provide temporary, partial support until the woman is "on her feet". Women no longer do so, and usually keep their own jobs and bank accounts throughout the marriage. Naturally, feminists aren't leading a charge to change these laws to reflect modern realities.
18 years? Try 25 in some states. In New Jersey, the mother only has to claim that the child is attending college to keep the checks coming. No proof has to be provided, and if the father isn't in a financial situation where he can assume full custody of his kids (this happens a lot due to the divorce judgement and said child support payments) he risks losing ALL access to his kids if he gets his ex put in jail for fraud.
And if the child support isn't enough, there's welfare. The fact is that since the installation of the "great society", single motherhood has skyrocketed. It is financially advantageous for a mother to be single.
It is not a trendmill at this point nor is MS being evil to the mean old beancounters who refuse to see hidden costs and just licensing on a spreadsheet in excel. This story, the one on IE 6-8 being vulnerably last week on slashdot, and many others stating XP is so primptive because it doesn't have protected mode, ASLR, are DEP fully (only a few things have that on XP).
Even on a machine without AD, you can at least use Local Security Policy to access the setting in the Network Security category. Why they tell you to hack the registry, I don't know. While you're there, you should also enable "Do not store LAN Manager hash" and "Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts and shares" (the latter only if you have no NT 4 domains or NT/9x clients).
I'm not sure what you mean with XP and 7 (and I assume Vista). Those are client systems. No, they don't offer Kerberos services. You need the server product. As client systems, they are far superior to NT 3.x and 4.0. Your "impossible to lock down" statement is just a setup for Linux fanboyism.
This is the UK. Won't the solution be to install monitoring devices on everyone's computer and send out TV license^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H cybersecurity officers to ensure compliance? Or maybe ban long, pointy^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H encrypted communications?
We made money on AIG, but lost it on nearly everyone else to the tune of $63 billion.
Please explain to me how I, a citizen, am on the hook for the pension claims of a corporation? And guess what? We are essentially paying for permanent unemployment compensation for everyone who ever loses his job, anyway. We just extended them for the THIRD time! The last time gave people 99 WEEKS of benefits; God knows what it's up to now, being that the media doesn't report anything.
The truth is that mass terrorist killings require a lot of planning, whereas most domestic murders are people reaching for an easily available weapon in the heat of the moment.
If it's domestic murders "in the heat of the moment" we're worried about, why is it that the gun control advocates always leap forward when someone commits a premeditated mass killing?
The problem is that "just in case" is not a reasonable argument for taking about people's right to be left alone by an oppressive government. We could do all sorts of things "just in case". For example, we could go back to the draft "just in case" we need the soldiers. Some countries do this, but the people of the USA made their dislike of that policy quite clear.
These kinds of people do not care. They do not have a problem with flu vaccines, so they don't believe anyone else should. The idea of human rights is alien to them; only their own rights matter. They complain incessantly about "big pharma" and not getting "free" contraception or Viagra from the taxpayers, but don't mind getting flu shots or being assaulted by "GET YOUR FLU SHOT!!!!111" banners at CVS and Walgreens year-round (not just flu season).
Yours sounds like a great argument to suppress everyone's religious freedoms. Since no one can claim the orthodox, then none of their beliefs are relevant and can be safely suppressed.

Maybe if I'd been comparing HD over cable with HD over the air, your comment would have made sense.

We don't care about your Finnish straw men.
Going for the 5-digit UID cachet today, PopeRatzo?

Anyone have a Gibberish-English dictionary?

It takes a Brit to say, "Hey, they took all your stuff and stabbed you, but at least you weren't shot!" without a hint of irony.

So you freely admit that your argument is against the AAPS, not against their claim (AKA "poisoning the well")?
