Yes but they already been granted a license for non-commercial use. If it not distributed in the MPEG format, is it a commercial use? The commercial use is the Ogg Theora format in this case, isn't it?
Actually having twice as much is sufficient. They don't need more than twice. If it had been 140 to 70, it passes. And failing this kind of math, simple election and voting math, should be sufficient to remove both individuals from their jobs.
Or how about this one? The driver passes another person doing twenty miles over the speed limit because he's NOT using a cell phone, so he's driving 'safe'. But he sees that person using a cell phone and gets upset because he was more interested in someone else's conversation than driving. Because of this and paying too much attention to that 'unsafe' driver he rear ends the car ahead of him.
Cell phones are NOT the only distractor, not are they the biggest safety issue. Are you going to eliminate drinks in the car? why all the cup holders? Music in the car? get rid of all the radios? Annoying passengers? Make them all personal vehicles, only one person needs to be in the car. Too young/old to drive? Fixed age limits, already have them on the low end. No driving at night because the darkness keeps you from seeing the dangers. Road rage? Get a bike.
You want to fix driving errors, you need to address the core issue-the driver. Anything else is not addressing the problem, except for DUI which can affect even the best driver. Make the test include cell phone use and prove they can drive safely with it. Make it include eating a sandwich while driving. Make it include two screaming kids in the back seat and an arguing spouse. Make them either retake the test if they fail those parts or chip the driver's license to not allow those things.
And they (Native Asians/Polynesians living in America) should have. Particularly when the Europeans brought their diseases with them. You see what happened when the (party of the first part) didn't? That's exactly what we (current Americans) should be trying to prevent. Those who forget history doomed to repeat and all.
You'll obviously bring up country founded on immigration (i.e., invasion) which was important to our country as we were growing. Just like a human, it is important for a growing teen (country) to eat more than normal (immigration) to thrive. But once you reach adulthood, it's important to watch your diet (immigration controls) and make sure you eat healthy (keeping immigration under control, proper skill sets, people who are willing to follow our rules and regulations which could be different than theirs)
The 6 points do establish that the border patrol agents gave conflicting orders (2 and 3+4). From that, the fact that Watts asked for an explanation. The officer that was ordering him to the ground was conflicting the order from the first officer. An explanation would be appropriate as officer #2 is asking him to violate an order from officer #1. From such, asking for an explanation is an aid to the officers not a non-compliance, in fact it was Beaudry that resisted the actions of the first officer. As a juror, I would have found as such and therefore Watts was not guilty.
Your comment is not entirely accurate either. While you are correct that the government forced some banks to make bad loans, if that was the only problem, the damage would have been much smaller and the banks would have gotten dimes on the dollar for foreclosed mortgages. However, it was banks repackaging and trading in securities that lost the link between value and price that put them into trouble. It easy (at least for those who do it for a living to estimate the value of a house and compare it to its mortgage. But these securities were valued based on promises and ideals. For groups whose job it is to handle money, this was incompetence of unimaginable levels. None of the executives should have held jobs after these failures. For all their talk of bonuses for those who were skilled in their trade, these folks were not. Maybe in individuals units that were not involved could have been spared, but the senior executives should all have been gone. Plus any bank that writes an executive a golden parachute without at least having a method to recoup following major blunders should be allowed to fail. If the free market system had been allowed to work, we should have had many Wall Street executives in jail for Madoff-level pyramid schemes. For that's what this really was. IF you want free market to work, then we need to allow pitchforks and torches system to work as well. Besides, it will probably be a junior executive selling the pitchforks and torches outside the senior executive's home.
I've done it before, but I tossed several pennies at the same time. One stayed on its edge between two other pennies. Just shows that flipping a coin is not a two-valued problem. Not even three valued either as you can always lose the coin and it remains indeterminate. If you have anti-grav, you can even get flipping back and forth, never hitting the ground.
But that social aspect is unlikely to change in two years time. I did my version of this 20 years ago. I told my principal during tenth grade I'd had enough of high school and that I wanted to apply to college. They worked with me and I entered college the next year at age 16, probably a year or two later than I should have entered. I went to the local branch campus for my first two years, so the proposal sounds very close to how I managed it. By using community colleges, the students stay at home during that period of time where they may still have awkward situations and the parents are there to help. After two years of being in the situation, they should be prepared to go away for college even if they are socially inept. Besides, in a situation like this, they've had more practical experience in the social aspect of college than a student who did the full high school experience who now has to switch to the college experience. I've known honors students at college, with the full high school experience who did not manage the adjustment compared to me who skipped those last two years and straight to college. Something like this should be offered as an alternative choice, for those who desire it and can manage the academics. One size rarely fits all.
Lockheed and Boeing both came begging during the development. Each launch may be a fixed price contract (I believe it is) but the development was definitely government funded/aided. Both the Atlas and the Delta Heavy have had a failure (if you listen to the companies, they were anomalies at worst.) That said, the Atlas really ought to have been considered by NASA 10 years ago for the Shuttle replacement. IF NASA had, we would have the Shuttle replacement today. THAT is why Griffin and NASA are very much to blame for the mess that NASA is in right now. Obama's plan may not be the best, but it does have a good chance of righting NASA.
Yes but the resisting forces would cancel each other (if properly managed), though there may be some stressing of metal housing.
There were studies on using counter-rotating flywheels for both attitude and power control on the Space Station over 10 years ago, though I don't think anything has come of it since then.
Ares would likely be a very capable cargo carrier. But as a human delivery system, it should not be used. You pretty much need to use liquid engines for sending people to space. You can use strap-on solids in conjunction with liquid engines; I wouldn't recommend it for safety reasons, but with an escape system the astronauts should be fine.
True. I was Air Force. Hardship duty for Air Force was the equivalent of a Hilton for the other services. But if you had some brains and were a masochist, joining the other services you could get to NCO ranks much faster and the extra pay it entailed (not much) plus the extra responsibility (tons).
But then the question should always be, "Why is it illegal?" or "Why is it criminal (jailable) instead of a fine?" Plus given the entirety of criminal offenses, when it is obvious they do not have the manpower or money to track and catch all of the criminals, why do they spend the time and money on certain crimes. Why are the cops spending money enforcing X? is a valid question when it means the cops are not enforcing Y, Z, AA, AZ, ZA, and ZZYZZ. And it does often mean that. Focus has often rightly been given to crimes like murder, kidnapping, bank robbery, but many other crimes are often ignored (like jaywalking, where applicable) or speeding when only 5-10 mph over the limit.
I work government and I've never had an option of not contributing into SS. I believe I paid a lower percentage when I was in the military, but I still paid.
I agree TSA is worthless. However even the companies have been known to save a million even if it meant a billion in losses. As long as those in charge have already collected their bonuses.
I wish I had mod points to bump you up. The constitution has a few flaws, but it works in general, if we could just get actual enforcement of it. As you mentioned, this is due to the current parties, lobbyists, CEOs, and most dangerous, bankers in charge.
Atlas V has less than 20 flights...You're including the Atlas 2 and Atlas 3 in your count. Unfortunately they were different vehicles. Nonetheless, I agree that the Atlas V is a better choice than the Ares (at least the Ares I) for a number of reasons.
Hell even a lot of people in the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) fly only when necessary, and many of them are able to fly for free (on a space available basis). I am considering a 1000 mile trip next summer, and I will either drive or take the train. There will be no flying, not when 2 children will be involved. And the reason is purely the hassle involved. Driving will be an 18 hour or so ordeal; train 25 hours, but no ordeal. And those options are still better than flying.
I would say that if the EULA met your first two requirements that the third (Right of First Sale doctrine) could definitely be waived. By being clear that you were licensing the software for the specified use and that you could not resell the software, its value to you could be specified. If the asking price is too high, don't buy it. A similar process goes on every year at colleges, where students make a decision on whether to buy textbooks, knowing (usually) that when the course is done, they'll be able to sell the book for roughly 10 (30 if they are lucky) cents on the dollar. Occasionally, they run into a class where the book is coming up for a reprinting with new material and the bookstores won't buy it back. The First Sale doctrine is still in play, but the market is missing. The student gets to make a decision on the value of the book and the price. A company that licenses its software should be rightfully offering discounts--Autodesk doesn't.
And if you believe that cursive writing is writing you are sadly mistaken and probably responsible for some of the crap I have to read at work. Writing is the means of communicating ideas, so people can use those reading skills. The means of getting it on paper, or screen, is not nearly as important as getting the idea together in a coherent form. Not everyone is going to have a computer already at their fingertips, agreed. But regular block writing is quite effective. And for most people in this day and age, the typing course would be more useful. Typing does not directly increase literacy, but neither does the ability to use cursive script.

Actually, QCX (read the last as greek letter Chi - which I've always been told is the K sound followed by long I sound)

That's pretty much when you have to interfere, to protect your wallet.
Still the three best. By far the Golden Age of Comics Strips.
