A Fun fact is that Mickey and a lot of Disney characters are not Copyright, they are Trademarks, which is like copyright on crack.
No it's not. You can't just declare anything a trademark and get perpetual protection. An image or phrase can be a trademark. All of Disney's characters are probably trademarks, because if they weren't I could sell T-shirts bearing that character's image and they couldn't do anything about it. In any case, Mickey Mouse as a trademark will not protect "Steamboat Willie" from entering the public domain once Congress stops perpetually extending copyright protection.
How does that wacky American constitution work? The Consitution is an agreement between the (American) government, ironically referred to as "the people", and the general public (which now encompasses anyone on Earth, see citizens vs undocumented immigrants vs foreign nationals).
Uh... no. Please read the Constitution, especially Amendment 10, which makes specific distinctions between the federal government ("United States"), the state governments ("the states"), and "the people," who are-- not ironically unless your name is Alanis-- the people.
You could have gone to night school instead so that you had a real diploma instead of a GED. Yes, it seems like wasted time but then you can just put "Graduated from XYZ High School, June 1999" instead of the GED.
Within the past few weeks, students across Boerne ISD were being called into offices to discuss the use of lockpicks to circumvent the school's door lock system. The problem is that some of these students are being suspended from school for up to 3 months at a time. Shouldn't the school district be liable for their own insecurity?
As an amusing note, probably due to the amount of ammunition expended, news programs were claiming that the Clinton weapons ban that expired would have prevented him from killing so many people because of the "high-capacity" magazines. They didn't seem to realize that it's quite easy to carry a satchel full of loaded 10-round (legal during the ban) magazines and exchange them quickly with some practice-- which is what Cho did.
Seems that if you can blame eBay for a nutjob killing people, then you can blame eBay for scam artists ripping people off. But why stop there? Blame eBay for deaths caused by drunk drivers who bought cars, furries who bought stuffed animals, and trolling Slashdot submitters who bought new computers.
If the average New Jersey resident had any more autonomy than a shambling zombie, they wouldn't have onerous taxes, corrupt social services, oppressive weapons laws, and thieving misuse of eminent domain.
I grew up in south Jersey, and you still have the same oppressive, corrupt government there. At least the schools used to be okay, although recent reports say that is no longer the case.
Plumbing below the highway to collect the heat generated by friction would be essentially free energy, but very expensive to implement (and horrible for traffic patterns).
We don't have a single copy earlier than that, and so cannot establish that the books of the bible come from any earlier.
It's funny that you hold this high standard on dating manuscripts, when the rest of the archaeological community doesn't assume that a writing can't significantly predate its earliest extant manuscript. We have many other writings for which the earliest MS appeared a thousand years after the recorded events.
That is that the bible - the NT - reports countrywide events that go unreported by a whole slew of writers working in that period.
If anyone wanted to contradict that line from Matthew, they could have. You're arguing that it didn't happen just because we have only one witness. There are many cosmological and meteorological events that could have caused that darkness.
To believe that Jesus both literally turned water into wine and arose from the dead, and that Nicholas has 8 magic reindeer and scoots down chimneys to deliver gifts, is akin to believing that a bunny hops around and hides eggs on Easter morning. They are equitably irrational.
Believing that matter is composed of tiny particles called quarks, with odd names, and we can't see them, but they're there (and we can't know exactly where at any moment due to the uncertainty principle) sounds just as irrational. The only argument atheists have against the "miracles" in scripture is that miracles are impossible, which is a circular argument. In any case, Jesus wasn't about performing miracles: his purpose was much more important, and the miracles were meant to prove who he was. By the way, I believe in Jesus and quarks (sorry, fat man and hassenpfeffer).
Faith can mean believing in something without hard evidence, but it doesn't preclude the knowledge of said evidence. In other words, it doesn't require pigheaded ignorance as the atheist apologists would imply.
And you'd have losers on Slashdot posting endless non-funny threads about it. Oh wait...
Too bad no one uses that argument when the USA is criticized for not adhering to agreements it didn't even agree to (like the Kyoto protocol).
Actually, I believe it was his John Stamos that was stuck in the tree.

Only if that person sold the gun illegally.

Who's a liar? If you dare to read from one of those dangerous books, you will be disciplined.
These kinds of incremental standards are simply not forward-looking! I propose that the data block size be set to a minimum of 2^32 bytes.

They don't allow those in school, either.
I guess you don't use Exchange, then (see my reply to the GP post).
Exchange still uses the Jet engine. Its limit is 1,900 concurrent connections.
Was he well hung? Only his coroner knows for sure!
