The original poster has no problem with disabling the Touch ID function when replacing a button and specifically states that it makes sense from a security perspective. The problem lies in disabling the return to home functionality. As long as I am ok with not having Touch ID available why shouldn't I be able to replace the home button?
Railpower currently does offer a proper Hybrid. They call it the Green Goat (Goat being slang for a yard engine.) The first prototype went into use in 2001 so the superior type does exist.
Yea Right. If someone found and 'undocumented feature' that allowed turning on the emissions cheat I could believe it was just the software developers. But this has a direct impact on the vehicle's performance that would have been caught by multiple levels of the organization. There are more heads to roll yet in this issue not the least of which is the software developers that didn't call foul when asked to code it it.
McDonaldsâ(TM) uses 100% chicken breasts for its chicken nuggets for both the US and Canada (I suspect for the rest of the world as well but I donâ(TM)t know that for certain.) That does unfortunately mean they use the skin as part of it but once in a while it is not bad to have some chicken nuggets. Some of the cheaper supermarket varieties do use mechanically separated chicken but if you look at the package it is listed there and you can avoid those.
Read some other novels from the 1950's and you will see how different it is from other books of the time. Yes compared to current novels it is somewhat underwhelming but compared to its contemporaries it is something completely new.
I think regardless of how in the right the DHS rep is they handled it poorly. If they don't have the authority to change the form fine. If they must seized the boat fine. Explain the the gentleman why you are unable to make the changes and why you must seized the boat. Then let them know what the next step is to get things sorted out. Most people are fairly forgiving of inconveniences if they know why they are happening.
This just smacks of a functionary that enjoys being a pain. As for the DHS agent this is probably not going to go well for them. Even if it doesn't cost them there job it will probably result in a demotion.
Having been to Disney world this past august this is just a more advanced version of the system they currently have in place. The only real difference is you currently use your park pass and buttons (personal event greeting) instead of an wristband. The new thing is pre-booking some ride times which considering the lengthy wait times on some of the more popular rides (2 hours+ some days). Disney constantly tracks ride times, guest flow, guest approval and a whole host of things we would never think of all to improve the quality and safety of the experience to allow you more time in the shops and restaurants where they make the real money. Disney above all is into selling you as many of those trinkets and meals as they can manage. The rides are there to give you a reason to come back.
As for the other issue mentioned (scanning your finger print) it is to prevent people from buying one yearly pass or multi-day pass and renting/selling the use of the pass. Neither of which I can blame them from wanting to prevent as this does cut into there bottom line on ticket sales and skews park numbers.
Considering the number of stores that now sell store brand refill kits and aftermarket carts I would think that #3 is probably right up there. I know whenever I need to purchase a new ink cartridge I have to specify the manufacturers and not the store brand. My local staples does carry lexmark however it has been a while since I have seen anything other than a low end Cannon or HP printer in one of there discount bundles.
Sorry to say but patents are country specific. A patent granted in the US is not valid in Canada and vica versa. All the IP articles of NAFTA and GATT do is try to unify the standards on patents not make them valid outside of the country of origin.
As well the infringement itself must take place within the borders of the country where the patent is valid. This leaves NTP on some pretty shaky ground.
The problem is that no one is shipping an infringing product across a border. The infringing technology is all hosted within canada (where it does not infringe.)
The US courts are very obviously oversteping there bounds by awarding damages based upon the sales of the blackberry itself.
If the damages awarded where specifically related to the data service that is being offered (not the blackberry itself) I would agree that they are at least in the right ballpark.
However under canadian law all contracts and agreements that the deceased was under at the time of his death automatically revert to the person with POE. Its called assignment and essentially makes the statement about death null and void. From what I can find on US law it is essentially the same thing.
Actually having just read the specifics on the goverment of canada web site it explicitly stated that the person who is given POE is given the legal right to act on your behalf. Meaning that once you have shown the POE documents as far as Yahoo is concerned you are the person legally. The US can't be that different.
The will may kick in but someone still has to execute that will. In Canada that person has POA over the deceased estate. While the term may be different in the states the status is the same. That person is legally allowed to act on behalf of the deceased to finalize there affairs.
Having had to deal with dispersing the estate of family members I would have to think that this was a service that the deceased has subscribed to and it is the duty of the person with POE to properly close it up and deal with it. I don't see how Yahoo would be able to legally refuse in this case. As for the privacy aspect I don't see this really being an issue. You have died. You have selected (or had someone selected for you) to act on your behafe to take care of your afairs. Now I know that all my experiences deal with Canadian law but I can't see it being much different in the states.
>It's not really a matter of Canadian Broadband >having a higher penetration (i.e. available in >more areas), it's because the Canadian >population is more urban-centered than America.
Actually there is almost no difference between the two countrys regarding urban VS rural. The only recent statistic I could find pegs the US at 75% and Canada at 77%. Not a huge difference in that regard.
>"Rural" Canadians have no higher access to >broadband than Rural Americans. It's just >percentage wise, overall Canadians are higher.
Actually there are numerous projects ongoing that are connecting rural communities with high speed internet access. Both goverment programs an private are bringing up the percentages. The number is only something like 20% currently but it is growing. The US however is hovering arount 10% and isnt seeing much growth. I know some of that is just the sheer number of people but still.
>In America, people boundary people. In Canada >you get Oaises of population bounded by vast >expanses of nothing. >Try and explain to a Canadian how on the East >Coast of the US your town borders on 6 other >towns and they all have town halls and blah blah >blah. They don't understand (and I'm referring >to people that grew up in Montreal, Toronto, and >Vancouver). They have the impression that you >have your town, drive 50 miles, and you get the >next town.
Sorry to say that your impressions of Canadians are about 50 years out of date. In the urban areas of canada it is possible now to drive for hundreds of kilometers and never leave "the city." Hell on the drive to my cottage its nearly an hour before I get to anything that looks remotly rural and I pass through at least 5 towns and thats at highway speeds. Its becoming a huge deal now dealing with urban sprawl in canada.
Currently (in my area Ontario,Canada) ethernet cabling qualifies as a low voltage cabling and while there are installation requirements no inspections are required for said wiring. Any ideas on how this would change things. To me it sounds like the wiring may no longer be low voltage when POE is in use.
Actually it pretty much is like the original poster said. With the low cost of High speed internet access in canada and the avalibility of it in most resonable sized markets already (with the goverment pushing programs to get communities of just about any size access.) Broadband penetration in Canada currently sits at about 67% (Nielsen/NetRatings) and considering that about 81%(Nielsen/NetRatings) of canadian homes have at least one computer that is one hell of a pile of people.
Someone actually did this in Canada (Ontario) during the brief period of time where simple possesion of less than 30 grams was considered legal. Here is a link to the storry. Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.
The problem with this is that the FCC specifically states that only they can resolve matters with regards to unlicensed spectrum. The statement in particular is that they have Exclusive Authority regardless of venue. That states to me that they can't force you to disable it. They can ask you to just about anything with regards to wireless access but they have to authority to demand.
The problem that radish (98371) is trying to indicate is that a lot of our long distance transport is still done using semis. If more of the long distance traffic were moved off of the roads and onto rail transport costs would drop (rail transport is significantly cheaper than truck.) Heck thanks to road railers and there ilk we can still make use of all of the current transport loading facilities and still have the benefits of rail shipments. Even better there is no loading or unloading at the railway facility at either end. With no unloading/loading there is no slowdown getting it to the customer.
Surveillance is not only useful after the fact but to minimize the impact of an event. Yes a few police officers may lose there lives stopping a suicide bomber but loosing a couple people instead of large group is better in my books.

The time my GPS unit asked me to take a left turn off a bridge reminded me that we still need to pay attention.

I hope that 200m includes the land value, $800000 and change per house would be one hell of a house without it.
Diplomatic property cannot be entered or searched (including vehicles.) Getting him out of the car onto the plane may be an issue though.

For some reason the comparison of the total value of coke habit in the US to total value of Microsoft sales gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling.
