Well, You could say that they corrected the names, since 8 oz is the appropriate size of a single serving (read the back of a coke can or bottle). Perhaps it should be 4 oz small, 8 oz regular, 12 oz large, and up. Maybe McD's wanted to be honest and tell us we're drinking too much when we buy a 20 oz large
Actually, Thomas Jefferson could probably think of a few. There is a chilling balance between freedom and revolution. Most of the founding fathers advocated that americans should bear arms, in order to protect their freedom from the government if necesarry. That is why they created the checks and balances, bill of rights, division of power, etc. This was to protect the people's rights without hopefully requiring a revolution. Thankfully, it has worked fairly well. If Govt goes too far, you can go to the legislative bodies, and to the courts if necessary, to preserve and restore your rights. That is what will likely happen with Ashcroft's measures, they'll be thrown out by legislative committees, or by the courts, I just hope it happens soon. This system is meant to make revolutions unnecessary, but just in case it didnt work, they wanted americans to have weapons to defend themselves against the Govt. Now let me ask you, what does our govt use? Aircraft and M16's among other weapons? Is your hunting rifle gonna bring down an F16 or stop ten soldiers with M16s? Of course this should not be necessary, with our system. And with todays wacko's i certainly wouldn't trust many people with SAM missiles. So perhaps an amendment limiting a few weapons may be called for. However,what about the govt's extreme, saying they don't recognize the right of the people to bear arms, they say it belongs to a state militia or police, only. (however, the second amendment, like the first, uses the wording "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be abridged". If we are to assume right of the people meaning the state, then perhaps only the state has the right of free speech as well, and we've been abusing a right that doesn't belong to us. That is nonsense, so why does the gov't argue the same about the second amendment? if you want to make changes to it, do it legally, get 2/3s of both houses, and then 3/4 states to ratify an amendment. BTW, to the NRA and other gun groups, If you believe guns are to protect are rights, you should assert that by standing up for people's other natural and constitutional rights as well.
i think the law would interpret both as pirates, the guy who owns the site, and the guy who downloads from the site. If someone copied Windows and gave it to you, both of you would be guilty of pirating and be subject to penalties. I suppose if you visit a site that contains the harry potter book, you would be considered in violation if you didnt leave as soon as you realized there was copyrighted content. Of course, if someone pastes harry potter onto their index page, and some swedish carnivore spots you loading that page, how are you gonna prove to them that you closed your browser as soon as you saw what it was?
And in Automotive news today, Ford announced it will rename the Mustang Standard and Deluxe trim levels The Mustang GT Fast and Nice, and Fast and Nicer, respectively. The current mustang GT will be renamed GT Faster. Also, Ford will be shipping new GT decals to all mustang owners of the current body style, in order to make the mustangs to comply with their new names. In response Chevrolet plans to reveal new name designations for its corvette.
Now, think of how the world would be if every industry followed USB and the fast food industry?
Hmm, since cdr drives, burning software, magnetic disks, and every modern computer and OS facilitates the ability to copy digital data of any form, plus networks allow users to send and share files in many different ways, well Should those then be an illegal facilitating technology in sweden? Hell, if someone's damned enough persistent, they could set up a printing press to copy books, perhaps those should be illegal too?
