Voice your concerns in a very non alarmist way in and email to your manager. keep all emotion out of it. this way you have a record when he inevitably tells you there's no money for a pay rise.
next, find another job that pays atleast as much. have their letter of offer in your hand when you waltz into your managers office. In the current job market this is the ONLY way you will get traction. very few company's will give you a raise just to be fair. they will dump as much on you as they can until you say no or leave.
I had to do this at a few jobs, there's very little that stamping you feet will do in the way of convincing management that you are being under paid.
I call bullshit. your not pro nuclear power at all if you still think waste management is an issue with nuclear power. you haven't even bothered to check how it's stored. you know why no major leaks have occured? because the risk is manageable.
The FACT about nuclear power, is that even after 20 years of neglect of the science and massive hysteria about the nuclear boogeyman, it's killed less people then coal fired power stations.
dude learn to read. it clearly says "content HOSTED in Australia" and "which is then provided for use in filtering software"
2 isp's signed up for a TRIAL of the PROPOSED filtering solution in Australia. one of them was iinet, which stated very clearly it signed up for the sole purpose of shooting the thing full of holes. telstra the biggest ISP won't even entertain the idea.
I just hope they sink it before too much money is blown on this. and yeah sure i'd love to have fibre high speed internet, it's the paying for it bit the people don't seem to get. there's no such thing as free.
the problem is you have no choice about the $355. plus what if your one of the 25% who don't get jack shit - you still end up paying part of the $355 share.
and your wrong about lots of little projects not mattering - this year it's the national broadband, then next year that's stalled so we need another $355 for the national wireless, but wait that wireless is killing the bee's (or some other crap) so we need a new tax to cover the save the bee's scheme. do you need how letting government do everything by taxing you ends up as an ultra fail?
constant degradation of copper?? the copper lines in my area were installed 30 years ago and they are still fine. your talking jibberish.
again i tell you to do the maths 37.7B
just take a look at where the NBN is being rolled out - tasmainia. he had to horse trade with the greens, so while it'd make a shitload more sense to start in sydney and melbourne and reach 10x more people more quickly for less, he's started at the arse end of australia.
The NBN is going to be another K Rudd disaster. essentially what they are proposing in Australia is to duplicate telstra at a cost of 43 BILLION. Guess what the market cap of telstra is? 37.7 billion. I'm having trouble deciding if our government is retarded or just incompetent. For the proposed cost of the NBN (which given the Rudd government's hisotry with pink batts and the buildings for school scheme seems 99.9% certain to blow out in cost), they could buy telstra and simply upgrade that networks last mile copper in regional area's and go fibre where economical.
you can go one better and implement a tarpit which actually costs the spammer money by delaying their emails. every second they are delayed is a second they can't spam another mail server frustrating their efforts.

"Head or face covering required by your religion? Come to the airport an extra hour early."
sorry but i totally agree with this requirement. you shouldn't have the right to hold up everyone else because your religion forbids women to show themselves, and it shouldn't be any kind of loop hole that gets used to avoid identification.
nice misquote there. don't be a douche and use the whole sentence - " He says he now avoids peer-reviewed journals because they're read closely by scientists in countries that America considers to be threats."
you can argue about how effective it's been till your blue in the face. however, it's RETARDED to default to saying it's ineffective and should be shut down because they haven't caught a terrorist. it must be somewhat effective because it helped them nab 1700 criminals that otherwise would have slipped though. the total number of actual terrorists capable of blowing up a plane is pretty small compared to the number of people flying in planes, which makes it a tall order to actually catch one.
given that just looking at people is the most passive and unobtrusive and cheap method for catching them that i can think of, i'd say it's a good outcome.
The fact that there were no attempts or successes during that period is evidence that it's not needed.
what kind of fail logic is that? In what upside down world does running a program to prevent something, and having no instances of what your trying to prevent happen, constitute failure??!!
who gives a fuck how many sets existed in 1959. that was a fledging market, the TV market is now very very mature with lots of players. who wants to watch a significant amount of tv on a small fucking iphone screen anyway??!! this is all besides the point that current plans make it impossibly expensive to stream more then a few minutes of video, the cell phone networks can't cope either.
this whole story is just stupid, has/. run out of real stories and resorted to recycling crap from mac rumor forums or something?
let me guess you watched "super size me" and your on the mcdonalds outrage bandwagon?
I can go to mcdonalds and buy a skinless chicken wrap and an apple for lunch. you can eat just as healthy at mcdonalds as you can at any wanky organic health food shop. just because it's on the menu, are you really going to blame mcdonalds for people lacking self control?

unfortunately they failed to understand the fundamental fact labor is run by union bully boys who cream themselfs over having power over others.
probably about the same time the rest of the world figures it out?
this looks like arm waving sky is falling nonsense to me. it's line with the usual omg plastic's are the devil brain dead rhetoric. http://www.bisphenol-a.org/human/consafety.html
please don't ever link to tree hugger to support your claims. everytime you do i'm forced to club a baby seal to balance out the bullshit they spew.
usually with these claims i've found they neglect to tell you you'd need to lick the inside of 100 bottles a day to see any problems.
The only waste management we need right now is disposal of kdawson's shit stories.

on the topic of MS, this website puts more spin on stories then fox news talking about obama.
