I'm reminded more of the Get Smart scene where a fly is buzzing around and Max smashes it with a newspaper. The scientist starts crying "I spent years of my life building that robot fly" and runs out of the lab.
Here's a typical disclosure that a GPS will be installed in the car. Not exactly fine print or any trickery involved. Police had plenty of reason to suspect the driver of that car had committed a serious crime.
That strategy will probably backfire. It's very difficult to frustrate low productivity workers enough to make them leave without also pissing off high performers. And the high performers are the ones who can most easily find another job. Think about what your workforce will be when that happens.
Smoking, sky diving, hang gliding, scuba diving, racing pretty much any motor vehicle...all are generally called out on a life insurance policy. Adding another exemption for space tourism is not really news worthy.
After the 2008 elections we were told the Republican Party was defunct; Democrats had an overwhelming and apparently permanent majority in both houses of Congress and a lock on the White House. Nancy Pelosi was rewriting the House rules to consolidate her control over her own party while Harry Reid had a super-majority in the Senate that prevented the Republican minority from blocking his agenda.
How quickly things changed. A Republican elected to replace Ted Kennedy in Massachusetts? Unthinkable! Pelosi being voted out of the Speaker's job two years later. Republicans gaining enough seats in state legislatures that the Democrats complained about them redrawing congressional districts (*cough* pot meet kettle *cough*). And it looks like the front runner for the Democrats' Presidential candidate in 2012 will be 70 year old Hillary Clinton.
This makes a whole lot of sense when you think about it. What difference does it really make if your clock reads 11:00 AM versus 7:00 AM when you get up in the morning?
Say what you will about Comcast (actually, please don't - we all know), this is nothing but a tax. Why not just be honest and make it an internet service tax like the ones we all see on our cell phone bill that pay for Obama Phones?
Given that Zuckerberg funds a left leaning PAC, has experimented with influencing FB users' emotions, and is deeply involved in mining FB users' data, you shouldn't be surprised if that's the long term plan.
As the super PAC focused on holding Republicans accountable and helping Democrats win seats in the House, House Majority PAC combines innovative new approaches with time-tested strategies to do battle with Republican outside groups and make a difference.
Look at the people on their staff, most of them worked for Obama's 2012 campaign.
In a major shift in the function of NASA in American human spaceflight, the Obama administration proposal would rely solely on launch vehicles designed, manufactured, and operated by private aerospace companies, with NASA paying for flights for government astronauts.
Nope. I'm saying one mistake is not representative of healthcare in the US. And if I went to a hospital feeling sick a few days after being with someone who had Ebola I'd sure as heck make sure the doctor I talked to knew it.
It's quite common today for the photographer to assign the copyright to the couple and give them all of the photographs in digital format. The days of "pay me for every print" are thankfully over.
ApplePay does not cost the merchant any more than a standard credit card fee
That's the problem. Merchants (actually customers) are getting robbed by the credit card companies; now Apple is trying to get piece of that action rather than trying to reduce the fee that we pay.
The guy showed up at the hospital with a fever. Doctor wasn't told that he might have been exposed to Ebola. It has nothing to do with whether he intended to pay for the care or not.
Technically what EFI did was wrong. But really it wasn't as egregious for the reasons some make it out to be. The workers were brought in for a few weeks to help with a data center move, probably put up in hotels and lived on expense accounts. Were they really "immigrant laborers"? Or just earning their same salary but working temporarily at a different company location?

You need to quit reading fiction and read up on orbital mechanics. Science fiction skips over minor details like reality.

TFA said the car belonged to his girlfriend
That doesn't matter. The purchaser agreed to have the GPS in the car.

Corn subsidies keep the price of Ethanol artificially low so people don't realize how expensive that silly attempt at "renewable" energy really is.
Mainly because most programmers...
Programmers just implement the requirements.
They are, and have been for twenty years. Except for the part about killing Comcast, most people just don't care about that aspect.
Now, the Chinese government is set to fix that by asking the two to merge
Obviously by "fix that" they mean price fixing. Competition is not allowed there.

the group wants gratis access...

Are they also telling them who to vote FOR?

As with most of the Republican "outrages of the day..."
RTFA, the "House Majority PAC" is Democrats committing their outrage of the day.
.For example, take the typical problem of "If they chose Yes, I don't want the program to do X. But if they don't, I do what them to do X"
...
The solution to a programmer is simple: If "yes" then X
Shouldn't it be: If "Yes" then pass else do X"? Buggy code indeed.
That's mostly just conservatives and libertarians.
Oh really?

Stay focused.

True, but my point is that you could say the same about every news site. MSNBC? Huffington Post? Fox News? Daily Kos? They all have an agenda.
