You mean just like the poor can't afford cigarettes and booze ?
Us 'poor' folks have consistanly been among the first to buy 'expensive' items, and because there are more of us poor folks, we are the market of interest..
When the top executives account for such a sizable percentage (1 man takes home more than 1% of that $800 million) of the development costs, is it any wonder the costs are so high.
...that once you understand something fully, it is obvious that it should be that way, but until you understand it fully, it is a mystery and confusing.
Examples: Pythagorean Theorem, Fundamental Theorem of Integral Calculus, PnP junction, I could go on for ever (almost).
My point, let's be very careful what we classify as obvious, someone may have spent a lot of time and effort making it that way, and I don't see why they shouldn't wreap the reward for doing so.

there is virtually no 50-inch-class plasma TV market outside the United States,
OK, but how much 50-inch-class LCD market is there outside of the United States. My guess is it's pretty limited as well, after all, 50 inches is huge. I have a large house by English standards, and a 50 inch screen would simply look idiotic in my lounge. Anything larger than about 32-35 inches is simply too big for most houses.
That's not the same as automated stock picking. Automated trading systems 'generally' are used to take a position in a stock that has already been picked. So, trader A in Goldman Suchs wants to take a long position (buy) 100K shares of IBM, so he assigns that trade to the algorithmic trading engine, which might offer him various algorithms to help fulfill his position at the best possible price, ranging from %vol, VWAP, 'iceberg' or other type of algorithm.
notice, though, that the trader already had the stock to trade chosen, he didn't let the algorithmic engine choose it for him.
I am trying to think of a good reason to have milk packaged this way. I had never seen or heard of this until your post. I am surprised that these bags don't come with a valve like the bags in 'boxed' wines, though, having to cut the corner off is LAME.
There is no past. There is only the present. Attempts to explain the past or the future fail since the reference is to a moment in time (something which does not exist.) Time does not travel in a wave, or a particle, it simply is, now.
Nothing is happening in the future, nothing is happening in the past, everything is happening now. There is only the present, only the present, only the present.......Peace.
of the YouTune video, and reading the official and unoficial reports that are available on the net, all I can say is the guy is lucky he didn't get the holy living shit beat of him.
You want to stand up to authority, you better have something more to stand on than the fact that you feel like you are being profiled.
If that were all it took, I would stop paying my income tax. I am a single male with an income +$100K per annum, tell me I'm not being profiled !
The official religion of France was Catholocism until 1988.
The official religion of Italy was Catholocism until 1984.
The official religion of Spain was Catholocism until 1978.
The official religion of the USA was........oh, sorry we never had one.
The USA remains one of the few countries in the entire world which declares and enforces a seperation between Church and State.
a U.S. President should have. I'd like to change the Constitution to make it just a little harder for so many of the nations dumbest and dimmest from entering office. I'll list them here, for your approval.
Must NOT have entered politics as a profession - try working in an industry that demands results like steel, coal, or cattle.
Must NOT have graduated from an Ivy league school - you are either spoiled, an intellectual effete, or gay.
Must NOT have any recorded drug related offenses - if you're stupid enough to get caught, you're too stupid to be President.
Must have at least one child - no child to have ever been convicted of any criminal activity.
Must have net assets between $2Million and $200Million. Any more and you have obviously commited a crime, any less and you haven't worked hard enough to deserve the job.
Must have been or currently be married for a continuous period of at least 5 years.
Most have demonstrated some form of selflessness, either through charity work, military service, or other.
Let's weed out the dead wood, and hangers on, and elect some dynamic Americans that know right from wrong, and the meaning of hard work and responsibility.

The main targer for these are places like Brazil, and India... where basic human services are in-place
You clearly have never ventured far into either of those countries

I wonder if they are going to use resublimated thyotimoline?
Highly unlikely, the Nuntz coefficient is too high. More likely they would choose a lower Keyton class substance like floriumnated calpoproxylene.
Should be: "How Not
