Copying a motion picture from a theater performance is a felony under the Family Entertainment and Copyright Act of 2005, punishable by up to three years in a federal prison.
While the definition of a metro area differs between countries, it is sufficiently similar to distinguish between inhabitants of extended conurbations versus those living out in Shitsville.
Not really. All of New Jersey is considered 'urban' by the census, but there are still 'shitsville' areas of the state, mainly in the south and northwest. There are some towns that don't have police forces, public water supply, etc.
They won't have to rewrite anything. They'll just call it 'experimental' and deny coverage. Check out the last paragraph:
Mr Gow, who works at a new state-of-the-art centre at the Astley Ainsley Hospital in Edinburgh, hopes the bionic hand could be available on the health service within two to five years.
This is a scare article, designed to make the Bush administration look incompetent.
No, the article demonstrates an example of administration incompetence. There is a law on the books. It may not be a good law, but it's there. The administration's duty is to execute the laws, and the article outlines a failure of that duty. Does it rise to the level of their other failures? Not really.
I would agree that anyone playing this up as a real security hole is using scare tactics.
Actually Clinton did pardon one cabinet member, HUD Secy Henry Cisneros, who pled guilty to false statements (about his mistress, not a CIA officer). However, because he pled guilty, there was no jail sentence (just a 10k fine, which was erased by pardon).
Also, the false statement occurred during his background check, so he was not yet a public official and your statement remains true.
However, every single moment of the Libby case seems to have been a trial by proxy of the Bush administration.
The media may have portrayed it that way, but in the courtroom nothing could be further from the truth. The judge made sure that the trial was solely focused on the facts of the case.
Because Clinton was impeached for perjury, it is by definition a high crime or misdemeanor, the adage being that 'high crimes and misdemeanors means whatever Congress says it means'.
No, it's not illegal. Yes, I know there are signs but there is no legal backing for them. Also, the ever-helpful police will tell you it is illegal and will harrass or detain you.
Not insightful, as they are completely different situations. With windows, you can close the blinds. With wiretapping, you cannot choose to not be tapped.
For another thing, if I do not test you for drugs and then you (run over someone with the company car),(cause an industrial accident),(stub someone's toe) and then test postive for drugs at the police station, I am held negligent and my livelihood (and the business I've spent years creating) is destroyed.
You have no liability in those situations. Do you test people for alcoholism, too? Or lack of sleep? Or use of prescription drugs that cause impairment? Or any number of medical conditions?
The action does not regulate interstate commerce. It regulates commerce within the State of Washington. "Effecting" interstate commerce is not grounds for dismissing a law. Many, many state laws affect interstate commerce.
Politics is always a contentious issue, and if you are working for someone who is in the "other camp" and they fire you for your views, then you would have recourse.
Dunno where you're writing from, but in most US States ("at-will employment"), political views are not a protected class.

These RIAA actions are civil suits, so the standard is "preponderance of evidence", not "beyond reasonable doubt".
Driving isn't a crime. However, speeding and running lights are. You don't have a right to drive like an asshole.

It's called the necessary and proper clause.

This is not supported by wikipedia.. do you have a link to support your claim?

They won't do a thing. Have you seen the GOP responses? They're pissed that Bush didn't give Libby a full pardon.
The President has to specify who he is giving the pardon to.
I don't believe that's the case. Blanket pardons were issued after the Civil War and after Vietnam.
PANYNJ Governance "The Port Authority is a financially self-supporting public agency..."
Having an interstate compact does not mean that the entity is free to infringe on your constitutional rights. That would be quite a loophole.
There is no expectation of privacy if you leave your blinds open.
PANYNJ is a public entity. They like to act as if they are private, but they are not.

This isn't "documenting your personal life". It's one snapshot.

If I remember correctly (maybe not) that size drive went out of normal production and was expensive to include as the lifecycle ended.
Doesn't make much sense to me.. they could have gotten cheaper/larger drives and just formatted them down to 8 GB.

If they left the doors unlocked, it's highly unlikely insurance will cover the losses.
Hint: They were in political positions, not civil servants, and not in a union.

nice straw man (a term I really think is overused but is unfortunately most appropriate here).
It's not the term that's overused.. people are all too willing to resort to a strawman to support their beliefs.
