Maybe because it didn't have to do with Peruvian journalism? Which if you had any reading comprehension skills, your ignorant ass wouldn't be drawn to something I found interesting in his reply in an off comment and would actually look at the meat of the argument. Which was that when I called for proof of Peruvian journalistic superiority, he instead took a point to take the low ball and bash American journalism, something I alluded to at the end.
So you have a beef with the American press and you bring out a hot spot bullet point... big deal. It's like you are showing me a piece of shit and a closed box and claiming that because you're showing me a piece of shit it means that whatever is in the closed box is not a piece of shit. For all I know, it could be just a bigger piece of shit.
Did it ever come across your pee brain that her story might have a few holes in it? It's sensationalist enough to already be IN A DOCUMENTARY. But it doesn't mean it's credible (I'll give you that I don't know enough about it and will be checking out more of it later, but it's besides the point). Why disclose the NSA wiretaps or the whole Libby thing if our press is so scarred shitless? All you want is an excuse to bitch, and put non-Americans on a pedestal that they might not deserve, just because they happen to be NOT American.
Show the Peruvian journalists that have died for their stories, put up the proof about how great their journalism is. I believe that is what the GP is referring to.
You had a respectable response until you started joking about prison rape as a form of justice. You are correct that sentencing involves much more then just the facts, and that motivation and thought behind the action play a role in the sentencing aspect. But a subjective issue as that is handled subjectively already by the judges and juries making the decisions. A hate crime is a law on the books, and therefor becomes something you have to be convicted of by FACTS. Motivation, thoughts become things that you are convicted by, not sentenced by.
Brilliant! Screw this procedural English language, we need overloading, we need encapsulation, we need inheritance, by Job we need an Object Oriented language!
I never liked that definition. Because fire seems to fall under it.
it has the ability to move through space it has the ability to obtain energy through chemical reactions it responds to stimuli it has the ability to increase in size it has the ability to create more of itself i t extracts fuel from it's environment and produces waste
I wouldn't call it alive, I would call it a chemical reaction. I'm just trying to show that the Mrs Gren definition is good at differentiating a rock from a toad, but not much else.

I wish God gave us a choice about whether or not we could obey physical laws. I think that would increase the sin/sinner ratio a bit too much though. I mean c'mon: though shalt not float freely above a body of large mass, though shalt not travel faster then light. Dude, those are totally asking to be broken and seem much more worth it then burning for sleeping in on Sunday.
Nope, I'm still of the opinion that a broken business model is not the same as the taking away of a right. No one has a right to make a profit not big media, not small media, not mom and pop. If your users really like the service and your ads aren't intrusive they'll unblock your ads. Maybe try asking politely, instead heavy handedly asserting your supposed rights to profit?
Promoting Science and the useful arts =/= Payday for Hollywood!!
One method is to secure the rights of the content produced to the producer for a limited time (as it is described).
The original intent is lost because the method used to rectify the intent is what is being focused on.
Authors, painters, musicians will always create. This protection is something new in the whole scope of creativity and art, but instead of being fairly compensated for their contributions to society, it has become another way to exploit a buck.
The original clause has mutated into the entertainment industry screaming "WHERES MAH CHECK?!".
If a media corporation could make a nickel everytime you uttered a movie quote they would do it, as a corporation is defined as entity that lives only to make profit for the shareholders. It's just unenforceable and a poor business model. So when an innovation in copying and distribution makes old business models based around copying and distribution obsolete why should they not be abandoned?
There was no sudden influx in the poor houses for starving artists or lack of content when the printing press, analog copying, VHS, digital copying, the Internet, or distributed distribution was born. There is more noise to signal, I'll concede that. But I refuse to recognize arguments involving poor or inadequate compensation.

I thought that name sounded familiar. Sounds like giving civil rights are his exception, not his rule. This is the second time on/. I've seen that book mentioned, now I guess it's time to read it.
Could everyone stop with the house analogies? A house sits on property, as of right now there is a very distinct finite amount of property available, and you can't move it. This makes houses (that sit on property) an entirely different animal, and not comparable to consumer products AT ALL, and in that vein even MORE different then completely intangible things like information (ideas, music, software, etc...).
Why does everyone assume there are/should be laws protecting party X's business model? Nothing in the Constitution says you have the unalienable right to continue making money off of the same method you've always used. Times change, change your model. Civil rights and consumer rights should always have top billing, anything else will lead us to plutocracy.
I'm going to take a stab in the dark and say gobs and gobs of pre-installed drivers, the.NET layer, and shiny pretty things (Gnome or KDE require about what, 1 GB?). Still probably not the most efficient code base.
He's not. There was a site on lottery strategy I read some time ago (it was on the internet so it must be true!!) about maximizing your winnings basing it on picking numbers that people pick the least, given that any sequence of numbers has the same chance. 1 2 3 4 5 is picked more often then one would expect, it's that whole "no one is going to pick this so I am going to mentality" kind of like the whole "I liked it before it was cool".

No, if you click on the games in the list it will provide you with a snippet of information with a link to a wiki article that details the install and the caveats. There is also a 1-5 'star' rating on the game's popularity and playability. I was interested in seeing if C&C3 worked, but apparently the shadows only work on low vfx and there is no network play.
Those are excellent points about the pest control. I disagree about the 'poop' though. Human excrement is VERY dangerous and VERY unhealthy to use as a fertilizer for human food (cholera, typhoid, hep A, etc...). Though it is used to fertilize food for animals and in turn their excrement is used for fertilizer. It's just another part of the heterogeneous environment you were talking about.
Internal Affairs? Give me a break. News flash you're not a public department, you're a private company.
I wholeheartedly doubt that they would be the first, maybe in the gaming category, but off the top of my head: EMI, Sony BMG Music Entertainment, Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group.

On his 62nd birthday December 20, 2007, Tancredo formally ended his candidacy for the 2008 Republican Presidential nomination, and endorsed Mitt Romney.
