Can the teenager in the article own that cookie, or ANY property for that matter? Nope, it has to be "handled" for him.
Can the teen enter into contracts? Not realistically, unless it's for essentials, such as FOOD, CLOTHING, or other necessities. The law makes a loophole that no retailer would touch.
Choosing a Big Mac is one of the last rights the little guy has. Oh, he can buy US Savings Bonds.
Everything else needs a custodian.
Oh yeah, I'm 21. But I remember. Little guy, get emancipated ASAP.

The theme of the OpenBSD 3.7 CD set is The Wizard of Oz, and the cute little CD jacket cartoon strip shows the OpenBSD mascot and friends on a journey to achieve better wireless card drivers. Their adventure takes them to the Emerald City to meet the great and powerful Wizard of OS himself -- an effigy of a crown-wearing penguin. The man behind the curtain turns out to be a Richard Stallman-like character with GNU horns. The characters are disappointed because the Wizard ends up being "all talk -- no action!" So they decide to code the wireless driver by reverse-engineering the device.
Just to start a interesting flamewar.. 1. If I create a trade group. 2. I invite everyone who wants my improvements to join my group. 3. No one outside my group gets the improvements.
Q.I'm not externally releasing the improvements, and am not obligated to release the code, am I?
I've googled for this, but on 2 seperate computers I've tried to upgrade to SP2 and it breaks my network.. The NIC has "limited fuctionality", can't even get DHCP address.
Firefox acted bizarrly when SP2 did work, needed to click address bar, then enter, then address bar again. IE was no better..
Whenever I've visited a resturant, I've asked permission 99% of the time.. unless it's an emergency. (What's an emergency to you?)
I've been turned down some times, but remind them you'll buy more, or *gasp* pay a dollar or two for the privelige..
Once in Arby's I was denied permission, and got a wierd look.. Then the manager thought better, said not to put the cord of the floor, and I bought food to go.
Even Microsoft is pushing Media Center Edition (MCE), with a strategy to push media to "extenders" like Xboxes and TV-boxes.
What's the purpose of CE other than being able to use skimpy hardware? Would you want skimpy hardware encoding your movies?
How about the average salary+benefits of being Administration? $94,500
(Look up the salary of every public teacher in the state of Illinois at thechampion.org.)
For Chicago, search for "DIST 299"
The numbers include pension, which they can roll over. It's the private school teachers that make next to nothing. (Catholic grade school teacher I know: ~$24,000)
The reason there's a shortage is because of race/gender affirmative action, and the working conditions inside special education classrooms.
And the wheels go on..

Does Kerry/Edwards remind anyone of the old "me too" sterotype of AOLers back in the day?
Bush has his policy, Kerry says it sucks, but I'm make a very minor revision to it.
Sony v. Universal Studios "The Betamax Case" was a huge legal victory for fair use, stating devices that could be used for piracy, are not illegal, so long as their not universally used for piracy.
If it went the other way, the VCR/Betamax/Ipod is as bad as a lockpick or crowbar.

Fry's sold $100 door-buster computers at their grand opening, each loaded with Linspire, 128Mb Ram.
Excited, I flip the switch get to a screen with Linspire, Diagostics, If you choose Linsire, it flashes to a boot screen and ends in a blinking cursor. If you choose Diagnostics, it says "Screen" can't start up.
Google shows a newb a year and a half ago, with the exact same error of the exact same model (Great Quality). A forum admin asked what the specs were. Newb said no idea, bumped it 3 times and said Linux is crap.
So I hope it's a hardware issue, add 512 memory, no change. Take of the KVM, no change, reinstalled with XP, and resold it for $400.
Don't get me wrong, I want to be familiar with Linux badly. But it hurts credibility badly with vendors dumping boxes that go to a blinking cursor. That's why we should load something like Freedos for cheapos and Linux for high-end machines.
.. they are using the loopholes to threaten Spamhaus with potentially devastating legal action if it continues to name them as spammers and block their mass mails targeted at business addresses.
Is there any such thing as a British libertarian?:P
As for the site, it says nothing about the Reg 22 in question, a search only finds the same letter in Word format.
However it does look like they spent a pretty penny on their web designer. That's more comforting to the public than enforcing the law, I guess.
Geek n. A person regarded as foolish, inept, or clumsy. A person who is single-minded or accomplished in scientific or technical pursuits but is felt to be socially inept.
But then it could also be: A carnival performer whose show consists of bizarre acts, such as biting the head off a live chicken. I mean how many times do you see "sex with a mare" around here??
At CompUSA, I got a $25 dollar aluminum computer case that look likes it holds a gun.. cuts down on scrapes too. It's made by Vanguard.
Link to a site that has the case.

And in turn you validate one of Gates' excuses, "The larger the user base, the more attractive it will be to attack it".
There is a difference between branding and what it does.. Wasn't AOL contributing to Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape for a short while.. Does that really make it dirty/insecure in your eyes?
Then again, why am I trying to talk sense to an elitest?
The sedition act only applies if what they published was FALSE and libelous.
Read what Wiki has to say on the topic, especially "publish false, scandalous, or malicious writing". Also "With the Sedition Act, criticizing the Federalist government was illegal and could get you into jail."
This law was used to throw Democrat-Republican editors in jail for criticism, and I can see little difference between today's pictures and their words.
The Washington Post was allowed to post the Pentagon papers because they had a million lawyers behind them.. If we go to a mostly indy media, can the government harass editors and throw them into prison
If you think this isn't possible, what's changed between now and the alien and sedition act of before?

3. No one outside my group gets the improvements.
Q.I'm not externally releasing the improvements, and am not obligated to release the code, am I?
Ohh Boy.. GPL v. BSD flamewar here we go. GPL: improvements by others must be public if improvements are sold. BSD: Must credit you.
I've googled for this, but on 2 seperate computers I've tried to upgrade to SP2 and it breaks my network.. The NIC has "limited fuctionality", can't even get DHCP address.
Firefox acted bizarrly when SP2 did work, needed to click address bar, then enter, then address bar again. IE was no better..
Rolling back to SP1 fixes everything.

As a Chicago resident, we've been hearing about these damn things for a while..
They look like a turret, and we're told they're bullet proof and even work with a silencer.
Then again they have cameras that give you $90 tickets for trying to go through a yellow light.
Even Microsoft is pushing Media Center Edition (MCE), with a strategy to push media to "extenders" like Xboxes and TV-boxes. What's the purpose of CE other than being able to use skimpy hardware? Would you want skimpy hardware encoding your movies?
If I had a family member who was addicted to AOL, maybe this would help. Oh and FP?

The point is the NRF believes that SCO licenses aren't worth the e-mail they send to you. For someone who represents HP, K-mart, etc, that takes guts.
can you spare a few terabytes of bandwidth?
