The US military uses laser targeting/pointing/aiming devices in many areas. Anti-laser coatings have been added to various product lines of multiple brands that have a significant number of soldiers as customers. This was actually requested by the army and Oakleys have been issued to soldiers to counter eyesight damage that was becoming an issue in certain specialties.
The Constitution applies inside the United States. You have not entered the United States until you pass the border. The 4th amendment doesn't apply until you enter the country.
I certainly hope this article doesn't figure into this. This is done by every customs department in every country. If you take a trip to the US you will run this risk when entering the US but you will also run this risk when you reenter wherever you came from.
Sony did us unethical and untrue arguments in this case but the doctrine of first sale doesn't apply here. If I buy a chair from you then the doctrine of first sale applies. But you also have the right to refuse to sell me your chair. Now if I really want your chair I can restrict my own rights as a way to convince you to sell me your chair. If you only want that chair to be in a yellow painte room and only wanted it used by people with purple hair you can demand that as a condition of your release of the chair. If I agree to your demands and document that agreement in a legal way, a written contract, then I am liable if I don't follow that agreement. You would have the right to refuse to sell me any more of what you own and to sue me for breaching the contract.
I think your both wrong. Generally buying the hot name brand product will get you a good quality product that isn't really worth what you paid. Buying off the bargain rack will almost always get you a piece of junk.
Most sunglasses from Walmart will block UVA and UVB rays effectivly and that is all most people need. There are other considerations though. Those sunglasses from Walmart generally won't be near as durable. It's not uncommon to have the protective layer on those sunglasses wear off after only a couple of months. There are also anti glare, anti laser and anti fog coatings that you generally won't find on the cheap stuff. Oakley class sunglasses will have less visual distortion and will generally be ANSI rated for eye protection. Most of these things aren't relevant to someone just going to the beach a couple of times over the summer. If someone is rock climbing the price for Oakleys is probably worth it to make sure the handhold they see out of the corner of their eye is really where they think it is.
The standard isn't really going to make a difference. What matters is how good the processing device on the controller is and the read/write speeds of your drives. The SCSI array can be faster assuming it is set up correctly. Which one wins out will also be dependant on what type of environment you will be in. The premium on the SCSI hard drives themselves is justfied. Try looking for an comparison of SAS drives against SATA.
The basics of grammer are important to a point. Too close an observance of grammer rules restricts and inhibits communication. It also makes the most exciting text dry and difficult. My main objection is when a good idea worth considering is rejected because the author used there instead of their. Very rarly does such an error have any detrimential effect on communication.
Good idea. This will last until the water enviros get pissy about the fish having issues. That will kill your tidal and hydro-electric power. Your wind power will also fall when the bird lovers get upset about big fans harming the red cockcaded white tailed whatever. And solar power will probably get pretty far until you publish the square miles requred for each power plant to be useful. The wonderful desert foliage enviros will get really upset when they find out you will have to cover most of the Mojave with panels to produce your power. Of course nuclear is the spawn of the devil, everybody has known that since three mile island might have mabey killed somebody if the engineers had not done anything to stop it.
Planners are not "pushing" the surburban lifestyle. They are reacting to the market. The fact is people want all four walls, roof and floor to be theirs. People do not like listening to the next apartment of do whatever they are doing. It will very nearly take forcing me at gunpoint to get me to live in a place I don't own again. I like running the cable to wherever in the house I want it to go. I like being able to knock out any walls I feel like if I want a change.
Its impossible not to pass on greater operating costs to consumers. The sale price must be greater than costs. If costs go up then the sale price must go up. The other option is stop selling. Nobody can make up a loss with volume. If they really have to work to get around this the companies will treat CA as a separate country setup a completly new company 100% own by them and use that mechanism to isolate the greater costs.
On the subsidies for solar panels. Subsidies only work if a relatively small part of the whole takes advantage of them. Your suggestions are for things everybody should do. If everybody takes advantage of the subsidy then everybody will pay the total cost of the solar panels plus the additional costs of maintaing, applying and distributing the subsidies.
Point of fact: Every negative of every change is felt disproportionately in the developing world. Also the positives of change are felt disproportionately in the develped world. The developed world is with out a doubt developed, but is the "developing world" actually developing?
Your right. The problem comes in defining "significant factor. Are people causing 20% or 80%? How much will things like the Koyoto protocal reduce our contirbution? With what the Koyoto protocal would cost if any of the signers actually took the measures required to meet its goals how much would it cost? Is it a good idea to hadicap the western economies for 20% of 20%? How about 10% of 80%?
In the US it is sexual harrassment is the other person percieves it as harrassment or if it creates a hostil environment. Running around screaming Fuck will definatly be percieved by others in the area as creating a hostil environment.
All elastic mechanisims are able to expand and contract throught the ownership, purchase and sale of land. How can you produce more coffee beans to fill supply if you can't get more land? How can you produce more widgets when the land for your new factory has been alocated to a coffee beans maker who can't sell his beans?
If property rights are just artifical constructs of the government, why don't I just stop by and take your computer? I need a new one. Of course there might be a good argumet behind the conclusion that man has an inherent right to life, liberty, and property. It might also help to note that you can draw a direct correlation between the strength of property rights and prosperity.
What all the people who post this seem to miss is that most of the soliders want to get back to the front and help their buddies. This isn't some evil army destroying soliders. They generally want it as much or more than the Army.
Go ahead. I'll call the grammar police union and take your ass to court. Welcome to the real world bitch.
This is one of the main reasons for such bad schools.
The Airforce really doesn't understand CAS missions very well and keeps trying to replace the A-10 with something that just wont work. Any of the FA aircraft in a CAS role falls into the "I won't turn it down if thats all I can get" category. The Air Force needs to eaither get serious about Attack aircraft or get out of the way and let the army make their own.
He is also wrong. The military takes about that much of yearly discretionary spending. The poster was ignoring the non-discretionary spending. The items that are not voted on each year. If you look a proportion of total federal outlays the military comes in at about 20-25%

You are seriously overestimating the smarts most criminals. Even international traveler criminals.
This already happened. It is why the federal government is given authority over interstate commerce.

By definition the US is not part of the EU. Why would the US follow the EU's laws?

That can be topped. My dentist is named Dr Hore. He has three daughters.
