The school does not. If a student wishes to be a Boy Scout, Girl Scout, Nazi, play Soccer, Baseball, Football, WoW, or even just sit on their arse and watch TV all day, that is their right and the school can do nothing about it.
This even counts towards them posting on their MySpace page. HOWEVER, this student's actions were not limited to their personal activities. She committed libel by purposely posting false and inflamitory information to a public space by posing as that person and then spread the location of that false information to others within the school. It directly cut at his credibility and reputation as a school administrator and undermined his authority.
The nature of how she committed the act and her intent in conducting the act is what blurred the line between outside/inside school actions. Her actions, while done outside of the school grounds, was directly aimed at the Principle and would have its largest impact on school grounds.
Slandering the Fire Chief is not comparable. Your son would just have been talking out his arse and the Fire Chief does not have a position of authority over your son. What is comparable is the Fire Chief's source of legal remedy; suing your and your son into poverty.... and I suppose, if the Fire Chief did have a position of authority over your son, you can guarantee that your son would have been suspended at the least, fired more than likely.
EPIC FAIL. Under your description, the very act of defining a consequence for criticizing a member of Congress, Senator, President, etc. limits Free Speech because the resulting consequence is negative. Go read the Constitution and read how its *really* defined.
You missed one more area of where the Government gets *their* windfall profits. Sure, Exxon paid $27.9 billion in taxes on the profit they made from $0.09/gal, but they were already collecting on each gallon of gas we buy.
Gallon of Gas Breakdown
73% - Crude oil
11% - Federal and state taxes
10% - Refining costs and profits
6% - Distribution and marketing
Note that its Refining costs and profits, not just profits. The average profit per gallon for the Oil companies is $0.09/gal. But lets look closer at that Federal and state taxes number. From a $4.00 gallon of gas, they are earning $0.44/gal. Put $100 in your SUV and Exxon made $9.00 dollars. At the same time, the government made $44.00. WAY more than the Oil companies. Do a little math and it comes out to be Billions more at the end of the year.
So you tell me... who is making out like a bandit here? Exxon or the Government.
Who is getting bent over the table from taxes? (go look in the mirror for the answer).
Wow, insulting AND wrong, all at once. Congrats, you win! oh wait, you don't...
Nice try fanboi, you actually put a little effort into it unlike your fellows, but still no cigar. An adaptation isn't preinstalling software on a machine. An adaptation is translating a work into another language, reediting it (like that operation that tried selling 'cleaned up' DVDs) and such. But just taking the defaults in the installer doesn't count. Now if they added stuff they would be in very grey territory depending on what they added.
(emphasis mine)
They had to modify the OS to get it to run on the non-Apple hardware. That is an adaptation, thus putting them in violation of 17 USC 117(a).
In contrast, their Republican counterparts essentially gain nothing.
But perhaps Conservatives don't watch the show in the same numbers that their Liberal friends do, equating to the "gain nothing" for the right side of the aisle?
I did a "whois netsolstolethisdomain.com" from the command line, the domain was available.
I searched for it on the NetSol website then went back to the command line and re-ran the whois search.
By the time I re-ran the whois, it was already registered and locked....it only took me less than 5 seconds to re-run that whois search.
So, to keep your domain from being "stolen" by NetSol, do you searches from the command line if you have access to do so.
From an article listed below this post, it talks about only having done 10 cycles so far. Borrowed Link So there is still work to do, but the science is promising.
I could see that making sense. Linden Labs comes up with some sort of economic model where you install your own server software, supply the bandwidth, and are responsible for the patching and uptime; then you just pay a fee to make your island(s) part of their network. (Hopefully for less than the current ~$300 a month fee for leasing an entire sim). This lowers their bandwidth charges, their admin and maintenance charges, and they still have a viable income model to continue developing the software.
The biggest obstacle I can see would be figuring out a way to make the money supply come *only* from Linden Labs. Otherwise, the entire economic model within SL would collapse in a heartbeat.
Everything I learned of world geography came from the game Risk, and in Risk, Australia is a continent.

My question through, has anybody looked at the 10th Amendment? Isn't this appointment a violation of that Amendment, or as we just ignored it today?

I've had the same type of service from GameStop.com for a while now. GTA IV, Soul Caliber IV, Lego: Indiana Jones, just to name a few.

You mean something like this?
