Really though, this isnâ(TM)t about a right. Itâ(TM)s about restriction of rights. What advocates of this restriction are really trying to do is eliminate access by society at large to public records.
If the only thing Google used to populate search results were public records from an official source, then I'd say this was a correct assessment of the case. So as long as a public record exists, Google should report it.
But the problem is that a lot of the on-line records are not maintained by public officials with a responsibility to comply with legal directives. Just try to clean up a bad credit record, either justly earned or reported in error. Credit bureaus are bad enough in cleaning up errors or removing old bankruptcies once their statutory term has expired. Now just try to go after all the third party list compilers who trade this info back and forth. Good luck ever getting a clean report on your name.
There is an outfit in Dallas Texas, run by a Baptist organization, that compiles sex predator lists. They send out a monthly e-mail offer to sell the lists for numerous neighborhoods, including my own (in Washington State). Is it a legitimate list? I don't know and I don't care, as Washington State has its own registry. If I need to look someone up, I'll use the official site, as it is more likely going to be accurate. But the Texas site can't be shut down easily because First Amendment rights. And it's just a scare tactic to get people to pay for a list and make some money.
Apparently, Fujifilm thinks there is a market. That's why they came out with their Instax line of cameras and film. It's possible that Fujifilm is trying to move Polaroid customers to their product line with this move.
This will be the solution to increasing restrictions on parking in many cities. Want to stop at the local Starbucks but can't find a space? Just tell the car to circle the block for an hour or so until you are ready to go.
Set up a honeypot consisting of a Chinese DVR and a bunch of security cams pointing at pictures of Minuteman ICBMs sitting in their silos. Sit back and watch your IP address get hacked.
So, an Internet connection will be required? And once I have that, explain to me why I would ever buy a Blu-Ray (or any other) disc when I can stream content.
What's the down side of a hearing aid failing? Most often, the patient can't hear. Which is pretty much the same as a dead battery. Rarely, I suppose they could do further damage if they failed in a high decibel output mode. But I've never heard of that happening (yuk, yuk).
So, if the hearing aid turns out to be a piece of shit, that's a problem between the patient and their audiologist. They made a deal to fit a patient with something that works. It doesn't. So fix it or give them a better model. I mean it's not like an artificial hip joint. Some audiologists will take the 'safe' route and prescribe FDA-approved, high priced models. Some will take the economy route and sell an inexpensive unit, accepting the risk that some people may bring them back with complaints. The cheapest crap will fail in the marketplace. As will the overpriced stuff.
Because certification of medical or any other equipment with the potential to affect life safety is as much about the manufacturing process and QC as it is about the design.
The more likely a device is to injure or kill someone, or produce false reading which may lead to incorrect diagnoses, the more its entire life cycle needs to be regulated (design, manufacturing, repair). Stuff like ECGs, regulate them. Hearing aids, maybe. Touch screen speech synthesis devices which can easily be replaced by an iPad app. Screw it. Go for the open source solution.
And it's a complicated issue. Vertical and horizontal clearances between conductors and other equipment have to be maintained to comply with the NESC (National Electric Safety Code). Utilities, usually under the supervision of the states utilities commissions, establish policies for who can attach their stuff to poles, how it is to be attached (usually governed by the NESC) and who must pay what to relocate their equipment should it not be in compliance or should another utility come along and request pole space. Existing utilities move their own stuff, but they can be reimbursed by the newcomer, depending on the agreements. This appears to be what AT&T is objecting to: work being done on its equipment by third parties, sometimes without consulting them.
I always thought fiber was underground...
It can be, but often if poles exist it's cheaper to hang it there than dig up or bore underground.
Won't help. According to TFA, these bullets become aerodynamically unstable after they 'time out'. This results in them tumbling, increasing drag and limiting their range in a flat trajectory. But if you fire straight up, stable or not, that bullet is coming back down.

You forgot
Or one could use multiples of "a typical sample".

I think that is covered by prior art

And that helps the current victims' families how exactly?
So, a lot like New York city cabbies then.

Your co-worker's dog won't sue the manufacturer if the hip doesn't work.

I agree.
I think Apple should comply with the court order. Put their best Chinese software engineers on developing an iPhone crack ASAP.
Yes. And he's been out of the news lately. So pat him on the head with a, "There, that's a nice little sheriff." And maybe he'll go away for a while.

That's just tomothy and his editing skill.
drink coffee and alcohol at the same
Drunk and wide awake. Can't think of a scarier way to go throughout life.
The FBI will need help when they crack it. They WILL be reading his phone's contents, right?
