Wouldn't you have to be looking straight up for a satellite to see your face? I don't know about you, but I hardly ever look straight up into space except at night to look at the stars, and at night I think it would be hard for a satellite to see me.
No need to pay $20 a month for data if your not going to use it. All you have to do is pick from one of the many pre-paid cell phone providers and you are good to go. I am currently using StraightTalk, but I have used PagePlus in the past. They are both great and they don't charge nearly as much as the regular cell phone companies.
The bible has been preaching a similar theory for thousands of years, why is this news today? Here are some verses from the book of Genesis chapter 1
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
Amazon lets you share the 2 day shipping benefit with up to 4 other accounts. You then just have each other account split the cost with you and bam, you only have to pay $20 a year instead of $99. This can be done on the "manage prime membership" page at the bottom where is says "Invite a Household Member".
I think we throw around the term 'Human Right' a little to flippantly. The last time I looked Marriage is not a Human Right. It is a government granted privileged, and what the government gives they can take away.
We need to calm down a bit on this whole Human Rights issue.
Are you kidding me? Where in the article does it say anything about a Union worker saving the machines? If unions were in charge of the machines I think they would have been destroyed based on the quote below (which is actually from the article).
“It’s absurd that in a 21st-century New York, we would go back and vote on machines first used in the 19th century when Tammany Hall controlled the elections,” said Dick Dadey, the executive director of Citizens Union. “The voter confusion that’s going to be caused is unfathomable.”
I bought my kids old Android phones (droid incredibles) for $50 on ebay. They have Bad ESNs so I don't have to worry about activating the phone part, but they are able to play any Android game, watch youtube, surf the web, take pictures and video, and listen to music. The phones also have a replaceable battery and an SD card slot. It is a great way to get a inexpensive MP3 player with tons of features.
And when the option to keep your private stuff private is removed without your knowledge?
This doesn't make any sense. If all your private stuff is only in your head, then how is it "removed without your knowledge"? I think the point of the GP was that if you don't want others to know about something, then:
1. don't do it in public where others can see it
2. don't do it in private in front of a webcam
3. don't put it on the internet, (ie Dropbox, Facebook, Google, Apple)
I am sure there are others, but the point is, keep your private stuff to yourself and you have nothing to worry about.
People who are surprised that Google, Apple, Facebook and others share their personal data are funny. Don't give them your personal data in the first place and they will have nothing to share.
looking to the people who are and actually do study and understand climate science and asking them is wrong... how exactly?
Where did those scientists get the money for those supercomputers and their pay checks? What would happen to that money if they came out and said they were wrong? Both sides are creating this havoc for the money.
What is the end result of human evolution? (i.e. if humans continue to evolve for another million or more years what will we look like, what abilities will we have? Will we be powerful enough to create life in our own image? create a planet, galaxy, or universe of our own? manipulate matter with out minds? teleport? shed our physical bodies?)
I am interested in your thoughts on this and how it differs from Christians belief in a supreme being.
I was at the theater just this last weekend and some idiot walks in 10 minutes late with a flashlight and starts shining it around to find seats. Then they (he and his kids) find seats at the very front, and about every 5 minutes or so one of the kids turns on the flashlight. I wanted to pull out my hair. I should have complained, but because it was a kids show at the dollar theater I gave them some leeway.
I'm not judging the quality of the shows that you watched, but if you added up all the time you spent watching TV shows you would see that you "wasted" lots of hours when you could have been starting a new businesses, working a second job, or something that that could have instead added up to thousands of dollars in your pocket. So in a way, yes, you wasted all that time and have nothing to show for it.
Did anyone else notice that all the pictures were in Black and White? Why no color? It makes everything look so gloomy and boring. We need to show these visitors the beauty of nature in it full color glory. Maybe they did this on purpose so that the visitors would think that we were too boring to take over.

I just resell the DVD and media file. I can usually get $5 each which brings my total cost of ownership down to just $10.

4. don't take pictures of it

Amazing graph, thanks for pointing it out.
Please answer one question for me?
What is the end result of human evolution? (i.e. if humans continue to evolve for another million or more years what will we look like, what abilities will we have? Will we be powerful enough to create life in our own image? create a planet, galaxy, or universe of our own? manipulate matter with out minds? teleport? shed our physical bodies?)

+1 I also use pageplus and love it
If we are going to ban things that kill, lets start at the top of the list, not at the bottom.
Leading Causes of Death
Also more people die from car accidents than from guns, should we also ban cars?
On average in 2009, 93 people were killed on the roadways of the U.S. each day.

There is no border between a retarded state like Texas and a sane one like New York
You mean the same sane state that says you can't buy anything larger than a 16oz soda?

or that restaurants can't put salt on the table?
http://dissentingjustice.blogspot.com/2010/03/proposed-ny-law-would-ban-salt-in.html
or that bans food donations to homeless shelters because they cannot asses the salt content?
http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2012/03/19/bloomberg-strikes-again-nyc-bans-food-donations-to-the-homeless/
Sounds really sane to me.
Simple, amend it.
Just change it to this
""If your house has been robbed, is it legal for you to break into the other persons house and steal your stuff back?"

If it is publicly funded, even just a little, then it needs full disclosure. We have a right to know what our money is funding.
Whoever said home is where his wife is? He probably left her at the store and is hurrying home to pack his stuff before she catches up.
> The Nexus 7 is cheaper and does more.
Umm, they are the same price (the $199 version), and the Nook has expandable memory and the Nexus does not.
