Well Mr AC care to provide a site which gives a viable alternative?
Because I haven't found anything better that works. I've seen dogs that are mean and miserable, over protective and neurotic and a good number are well cared for and loved but are let to do as they please.
It is pretty obvious if you want an obedient well trained dog he has to see you as boss and respond to your commands. Not only that he has to be socialised otherwise he will create havoc and be unsafe round strangers. and especially children.
One of the biggest problems is letting a dog think he is in charge and that is easy to do the dog walking thing you mention is a corrective measure to establish you in your role, it isn't natural, walking on a lead isn't natural but its simple you are telling the dog do as I say i'm boss and pretty soon you have a dog accepting this.
Even throwing a ball for them can be great training I make my two sit before I throw the ball the reward is they get a ball to chase which they love but its establishing me as the boss of them not a ball throwing servant.
obviously its possible to get them to do other things too with this simple reward.
your a bit wrong about the starter. Pretty much all car, trucks and motorcycles use a solenoid one pole of which is attached by a heavy duty cable directly to the battery +ve terminal a much lighter weight circuit essential moves a plate which closes the circuit and your starter motor turns (don't put big amps through switch gear use a relay).
If you have had a solenoid burn out (theres big amps moving through that plate inside the solenoid and sometimes the plastic melts. A quick get you home method (theoretically) is to bridge the solenoid with something like a spanner till the car fires up. You could potentially start a fire if you had a leaking fuel pump so don't try this it will spark and take chunks out the spanner probably. (a tap with a hammer sometimes is enough to get the solenoid to engage) (also works for starter motor brushes which are nearly gone and sticking)
The car body is essentially the negative terminal which provides the return path to the battery.
So given a suitable connector say with a pin that penetrates the insulation and clamps on that heavy duty cable you probably could probably be tapped in and working in seconds. The device itself would want to be rugged to be able to handle the spikes in the supply but its certainly doable.
Although the html isn't great on this site the advise and insights are excellent.
Dogs need attention and a role in life, which means they look to you for leadership. Without that leadership they try to be the leader that causes lots of problems. It is pretty easy to see when this is occurring, to be honest you can get similar problems with children too.
anyway the above link should help any dog owner get the best from their dog. If you can't provide what the dog needs, it may be best to rehome the dog.
Thanks for posting, unity is why I will stick with Lucid for a while yet. Lucids netbook interface is better and adding in gnome-shell makes improvements in switching applications with as many desktops as you need yet retaining the menu options of the netbook interface.
Unity just doesn't work well, making the usable screen narrower and then doesn't make use of the space to the right of the launcher. Hopefully someone will port the lucid netbook interface to maverick.
There shouldn't be a problem with having one more ui option at startup but unfortunately pushing features that are not ready is only to be expected with ubuntu - need I mention pulse audio and the teething problems many users endured.
The trouble with computers is they are not very good for making the notes which are needed in a class setting and positively hinder the learning process. Useful for presenting information and holding preprepared information.
What can be good is some form of video camera with audio. The problem with learning new things is it tends to come in a big wave with you the student trying to pick out the important details. Your highly unlikely to remember all the details in a single pass.
I tried this and found it effective even though the video wasn't that great. I retained more, the video camera was a passive observer which enhanced what I was learning at the time.
of course the computer comes back in to play when reviewing the video and picking up the details that I missed initially.
And perhaps that is where I will suggest something radical do it as routine for classes have a video recording setup and running and give students and teachers access.
It would be good for teachers and students alike maybe not just for review but to improve class discipline and perhaps even save a teachers good name when allegations of misconduct are made.

Facebook is something different, it allows a continuity with the people from your past life that required an effort to achieve before facebook. Without Facebook your life is mainly based around your immediate social group the people that you see day to day. Unfortunately there are many drawbacks with facebook making part of your life an imperfect and often too public record which can come back to haunt you. Is it likely that your grand children will look back up on your facebook account and see posts from your teenage years? Will your friends draw from your posts when they write your obituary?
Facebook is a long way from perfect and its necessary to think how you want to use it, or if you want to use it all. Facebook I keep away from my immediate life the people who I see day to day, others may use it to organise nights out and their social calendar. while others refuse to use it all. The third group may be making the best choice for themselves.
Groups may be badly implemented right now certainly flawed but then facebook is flawed and unstable which is why not joining may be the wisest choice.
final thought would slashdot be better if you could mark a post without replying to it?
Let me put it this way on facebook i have a number of friends most of which i have been out with, partied with over the years and even baby sat their kids (we are not teenagers any more).
If I wanted to chat about something computing related lets say java or netbeans the number that have a background to do so is zero. When chatting most use facebook chat and are a bit put out when its not working right which seems to be fairly regular. The number that use Skype is one or two and sip: non-existant.
Intelligence is not related to skill with a computer, surprisingly most people who are intelligent have no interest in computers, I think windows has a lot to blame for this. most people have a core number of things they want the computer to do and hope that nothing will go too badly wrong.
So there is an inbuilt fear and reluctance to doing anything new on their computers after all what if it effects something they do already. After all its as much magic as science and there is no understanding of the system. A common question how much memory do you have often gets the size of the hdd and that is the level of understanding of most regular people.
Once you realise this it becomes clear why people still use the old fashioned phone when there are better cheaper alternatives. They are just not comfortable with unfamiliar technology make it simple and obvious and they will flock to it (e.g sky + or tivo).
Here is an extract from the above page which essentially says the queen rules via the 1689 bill of rights but that also creates parliament also . If you get into the link above you may find that the queen as head of state ceased to be so in 1991 due to signing a bill into law which conflicts the 1689 bill of rights act which she has to uphold or lose the crown (goes without saying that her government ministers are similarly out of office too).
Mr de Crittenden: I ask the tribunal to accept into evidence the Declaration of Rights that was given effect on 12th February, 1689 by William & Mary, Prince and Princess of Orange, the Parties of the first part, and A Convention Of The English People, the Party of the second part.
It is necessary for this tribunal to note that at the time that the Declaration of Rights was presented, William was the Prince of Orange - and that at a later time on the same day, he was King of England. It is clear that the Crown was given and received because William of Orange had accepted the provisions of the Declaration of Rights - and it is clear that at this time, there was no lawful Parliament. Once recognized as King, William was able to call a Parliament into being and in December of 1689 the Bill of Rights was enacted.
The Powers of the Crown and the Powers of Parliament are both regulated by the Contractual Provisions of the Constitutional Agree-ment known as the Declaration of Rights, and the Bill of Rights, enacted in December of 1689, is nothing more and nothing less than evidence of the contract that had been made and given a full effect in February of 1689. The Declaration of Rights was not entered into by any Parliament and is not a Creature of Any Parliament - Unlike the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Rights is not subject to repeal; amendment or any form of regulation or repudiation by any Parliament.
In confirmation of the terms acknowledged by the Declaration of Rights, and evidenced by the Bill of Rights, the Sovereign gives a Coronation Oath. The lawful exercise of the authority claimed by any Sovereign &/or by any Parliament was made dependent upon a full and absolute obedience to the provisions made by the Declaration of Rights - and if there should be failure on the part of any Sovereign to uphold the provisions of the Declaration of Rights, then the inheritance of the Crown itself becomes forfeit - with all rights to the Crown reverting to the line of the former and now-deposed Stuart Dynasty (if the rules of primogeniture and logic are properly applied) Our Present & Most Gracious Queen Elizabeth, Whom God Preserve, has no right to the Crown at all, unless it be the right that was conferred on her predecessors; their heirs and successors by the Declaration of Rights.
Should the Queen forfeit her lawful right to the Crown, as a consequence of failure to maintain the terms of the agreement made on 12th February 1689, then Parliament itself can have no lawful existence, because all Parliaments have their lawful existence only by virtue of the Sovereign's own Right to Govern this Country and to call such parliaments into lawful assembly.
Mr Prickett: The supreme body is the Queen in Parliament.
Mr de Crittenden: That is a present-day interpretation. The Declaration of Rights recognizes only that the Supreme Body is the Queen herself! Evidence of this is everywhere: for example, all Acts of Parliament are enacted in the name of the Queen and all Parliaments are required to maintain the Supremacy and Security of the Crown - as evidenced by the Oaths of Allegiance that must be sworn by all Members of Parliament - before any of these persons are permitted to take any lawful part in the pro
hardly, you obviously have no idea how heat pumps work but essentially they take the heat energy which is outside and move it into your house this uses a heat pump the energy taken from outside far exceeds the energy needed to drive the pump which is why it's possible to be more than 100% efficient.
Technically you are making outside your house a little colder but in reality its no real difference.
What would be exceedingly cool would be to find a method to use some of the heat energy to drive the heat pump. Then you would be keeping warm or cool for free.
it might not be as hard as you think largely its a client frontend and a database holding all the data. If you can connect to your database using one of many tools dbvisualizer is one i use dbschema might be another Chances are the schema's would be fairly similar.
I'm finding it a great learning experience getting into the details but one things for sure if you get the data in you can extract it too.
Thats quite untrue for most cases and i'm sure you know it. If two people work the same job for 40 hours a week then they both get paid pretty much the same (obviously one being single and the other having three kids then there will be some allowance made for that).
However if one of them doubles up his hours to 80 chances are he is still being taxed the same percentage as the other and being paid a higher rate to compensate for killing his social life (its called overtime). ok there are higher tax rates after some threshold value but i don't think there are many jobs at those pay levels where people are still on hourly pay. Working extra hours your not improving your take home pay directly.
To be honest it would be better in the long term for the one working 80 hours to work sensible hours and a third person to be employed and reduce the number of unemployed by one. Because this third person is now paying taxes and isn't having to subsist on state payments. The tax burden can be reduced on the first two people giving them more cash in their pocket.
Success isn't working twice as long as the guy next to you doing the same job. Success is moving on to a better paid job altogether.
SIP is the best quality solution but you have to realise that setting up a sip account is beyond the ability of most ordinary people.
I have a lot of friends who use facebook and very few use Skype even less who use sip. If Skype becomes as easy as go to your facebook page then the number of people i know using skype wouldnt double it would be around 10 -20 times as many.
people in general are scared of computers, and don't want to install anything.
In an ideal world Facebook and Skype would be going nowhere and we would all be able to use our sip enabled devices without having our calls intercepted and monitored or risk losing our jobs or wrecked friendships because we said the wrong thing on Facebook.
I think we really lose sight of what most people have the confidence to do. You want people to use sip: then just make it so all they need to do is allow this application access to their facebook settings and then just work.
Apparently Dell printers are badge engineered Lexmarks, hence the printer issues. I'm sure you are aware of the issues with Lexmark so no need to rehash them yet again.
Macs use cups same as Linux, so I'd expect printer support to be pretty much the same.
The trouble with slashdot is after a while you have read 99% of the arguments on just about any issue several times before.
for what its worth buying hardware which requires jailbreaking is either fun or just shooting yourself in the foot. I'm not sure which.
A European phone works just like it does at home and doesn't cost you till you start using it. Point being you can be available at your usual number without paying anything.
Roaming charges within the EU are getting a lot of downward pressure. However you can get a local sim card very cheaply you might use a spare phone for that or a dual sim card phone. You can also do a few voip things much as in the usa and there is skype for mobiles which is usually free. Obviously every countrys operators are largely free to do what they want.
However while yes usa is a big country its got a limited number of operators that cover the USA once you leave the USA you will be getting charged for the privilege just like everywhere else assuming the phone uses a sim card which isn't a sure thing.
It's probably better to compare the USA to Australia , mobiles work pretty well there over huge distances.
It shouldn't be that difficult. In the UK There was an expansion of the area code's e.g 0522 became 01522 London got 02 due to its size Mobiles all start 07 A similar plan would increase number space and separate the mobiles from the Landlines and now you can set different call rates for land lines and mobiles if its a mobile it starts 07.
Most Americans must be splitting numbers anyway e.g demonlapin home no mobile no and work no possibly. No point in calling you at home when your out the house. Just a thought how do you tell if a phone can receive an sms text message?
The third problem is convincing Americans that they shouldn't be paying to receive messages and calls that shouldn't be that hard if the rest of the world can do it.
Telesales must be a problem already, getting one of those calls is annoying getting one and paying for it...
A comparison of billing charges should show that Americans are not getting free calls but paying over the odds for the same service as we enjoy in Europe.
Minutes are minutes, and it doesn't matter who called whom. While this is a different decision from the European model, there is some reasonable logic - the benefit of being mobile accrues to the person with the mobile phone, so they should pay for it.
The benefit of me being mobile is that you are able to contact me when you choose, even if its 4 in the morning. I have no control over when you decide to call me.
If I want to call you then I get the cost of doing so.
Actually in a sane system there is usually some form of deal available. With three.ie if i top up 20 a month I get 3000 minutes free calls and minutes at weekends 3000 texts for the month, before using the 20 euro credit. 5 euro of that I use for an internet add on. which could be used for tethering and it is all without a contract. oh i forgot i have unlimited skype for the month also.
Skype for 1.06 cent will give me 60 minutes of calls to landlines in a typical country (skype credit will charge 2 cents a minute without a deal to call any landline in the world typically).
Maybe someone should set up a facebook group to voice a collective argument to end this practice of charging for incoming calls and texts. There must be a sizable number of Americans on facebook, maybe then there will be a few senators that will push bills to change this situation if enough Americans get behind this.
It is not the biggest issue in the world but its one that effects Americans individually and benefits corporation's enormously. How can it be that the most powerful nation on the Planet allows its citizens to be screwed over this way?
Back in the eighties the local council (Sheffield) introduced something they called passport to leisure. This enabled unemployed and retired people an other groups free access to council swimming pools (and other facilities) at off peak times.
Physical exercise helps increase physical and mental health, which makes it easier to integrate people back into the workplace. Having a large chunk of the population depressed bored and in bed till lunch time* and unfit to actually do a physical job is a bad thing. I guess these days if your unemployed you can sit around on facebook playing farmville.
There are other positives to be gained through this for the individual and the community. Just keeping people from becoming isolated and depressed and part of society is important not just for them but for you too.
You might argue that having a reduced charge would also be effective, however when people have very little money going swimming or to the gym are luxuries that can and will be cut out.
* Staying in bed was an effective way of living on nothing till your next bit of money came in. Bed clothes keep you warm without spending on heating or electricity for running tv's and cut food costs because you are not moving you expend less energy which means you can eat less.
So yes you can have a mixture of people paying and non paying to use the pool.
Can we get music for free legally yes turn the radio on. Films for free sure (last night there were maybe 10 films I could have watched without pay per view).
I can make my own entertainment too, play guitar , visit a library and read a book, go fishing, reply to posts on slashdot...
It isn't as simple as pay or do without, there are always options. Even now I am using firefox on ubuntu and I didn't steal or breach any copyright.
There is no official language of the United States. At the State level some states do, many do not, and some are officially bi or trilingual.
Refusal to accommodate students with language issues may be illegal in some states. Some students may be disabled perhaps requiring Braille or some other input devices. The parent would fail steven hawking in a physics exam.
we live in a multicultural society and you are restricting your own development as a rounded individual if you ignore this. At the least learn a second language preferably one which will be useful to you. Not only will it take you places your brain will be exercised developed and expanded.
You are confusing things. your toilet connects to sewers, the road drainage also connects to sewers, (in town anyway country roads may drain into ditches or pebbles or whatever). Factories also connect to sewers, all the sewers connect to the sewage works or dump into the sea . The heavy metals they are probably contaminates from the factories and ground water, mines may also contribute.
The sewage works job take out the lumps this can be done with a metal conveyor with holes in like a colander which dumps to a trough like a water slide which goes to a machine that removes water and dumps the rest in a skip.
suspended grit which is in the water when it enters the works is removed in grit basins by blasting air through the water forcing the grit out of solution and oxygenating the water. then the next stage is into settling tanks for a while or filter beds and then usually into the river
In times of severe storms its often in the works and out into the river bypassing the process (rather than flooding the works) btw oxygenating the water is important otherwise the fish die , fish will swim in crap but they do need oxygen.
Many industrial cities since having the industry relocated now have rivers which are relatively clean and now support fish, least it gives you something to do with your enforced leisure time, you might even eat some of the fish.
The waste of life which is a loveless marriage fully supported by the church, the huge numbers of women raped within marriage the many women brutally attacked and assaulted by the husband.
It's a great institution marriage but without it a lot of these problems go away.
Its such a positive influence on children when they get to witness their fathers beating their mothers, staying together for the sake of the children, do they really need the scars?
It's with you the whole of your life and interferes with the relationships you form.
90mph isn't that fast, here in Ireland the national limit is 125kmh or 75 mph in the UK its 70mph. In reality most free flowing motorway traffic will travel at 80-90mph anyway without any pass.
Autobahn speeds are much higher more like 125 mph or more.
I am assuming that there isn't a proposal to allow 90mph on city streets as idea's go, people do it anyway so lets tax it, isn't that bad.
Interestingly it is a license to drive at these speeds for a day. Which suggests that there can be restrictions on who can qualify for the license based on age experience and driving record. It could be used as an incentive to drive to a higher standard.
Interesting If the ac up near the top of the page is correct then you only run windows and your sole reason to post here is to troll. Why bother? you must have more of a life than that (btw the new netbook interface in maverick blows chunks ) my netbook favourite has to be 10.04 unr with gnome-shell --replace (its a little quirky but works well for me.

I'm sure the FBI is aware of the design of your Ford and have chosen a different method to attach the GPS unit.

Chances are the schema's would be fairly similar.
I'm finding it a great learning experience getting into the details but one things for sure if you get the data in you can extract it too.
Thats quite untrue for most cases and i'm sure you know it. If two people work the same job for 40 hours a week then they both get paid pretty much the same (obviously one being single and the other having three kids then there will be some allowance made for that).
However if one of them doubles up his hours to 80 chances are he is still being taxed the same percentage as the other and being paid a higher rate to compensate for killing his social life (its called overtime). ok there are higher tax rates after some threshold value but i don't think there are many jobs at those pay levels where people are still on hourly pay. Working extra hours your not improving your take home pay directly.
To be honest it would be better in the long term for the one working 80 hours to work sensible hours and a third person to be employed and reduce the number of unemployed by one. Because this third person is now paying taxes and isn't having to subsist on state payments. The tax burden can be reduced on the first two people giving them more cash in their pocket.
Success isn't working twice as long as the guy next to you doing the same job. Success is moving on to a better paid job altogether.
SIP is the best quality solution but you have to realise that setting up a sip account is beyond the ability of most ordinary people.
I have a lot of friends who use facebook and very few use Skype even less who use sip. If Skype becomes as easy as go to your facebook page then the number of people i know using skype wouldnt double it would be around 10 -20 times as many.
people in general are scared of computers, and don't want to install anything.
In an ideal world Facebook and Skype would be going nowhere and we would all be able to use our sip enabled devices without having our calls intercepted and monitored or risk losing our jobs or wrecked friendships because we said the wrong thing on Facebook.
I think we really lose sight of what most people have the confidence to do. You want people to use sip: then just make it so all they need to do is allow this application access to their facebook settings and then just work.
Apparently Dell printers are badge engineered Lexmarks, hence the printer issues.
I'm sure you are aware of the issues with Lexmark so no need to rehash them yet again.
Macs use cups same as Linux, so I'd expect printer support to be pretty much the same.
The trouble with slashdot is after a while you have read 99% of the arguments on just about any issue several times before.
for what its worth buying hardware which requires jailbreaking is either fun or just shooting yourself in the foot.
I'm not sure which.
A European phone works just like it does at home and doesn't cost you till you start using it.
Point being you can be available at your usual number without paying anything.
Roaming charges within the EU are getting a lot of downward pressure. However you can get a local sim card very cheaply you might use a spare phone for that or a dual sim card phone. You can also do a few voip things much as in the usa and there is skype for mobiles which is usually free.
Obviously every countrys operators are largely free to do what they want.
However while yes usa is a big country its got a limited number of operators that cover the USA once you leave the USA you will be getting charged for the privilege just like everywhere else assuming the phone uses a sim card which isn't a sure thing.
It's probably better to compare the USA to Australia , mobiles work pretty well there over huge distances.
Openbravo might be worth a look, you might even find some support to help to switch.
It shouldn't be that difficult. In the UK There was an expansion of the area code's e.g 0522 became 01522 London got 02 due to its size Mobiles all start 07
A similar plan would increase number space and separate the mobiles from the Landlines and now you can set different call rates for land lines and mobiles if its a mobile it starts 07.
Most Americans must be splitting numbers anyway e.g demonlapin home no mobile no and work no possibly.
No point in calling you at home when your out the house. Just a thought how do you tell if a phone can receive an sms text message?
The third problem is convincing Americans that they shouldn't be paying to receive messages and calls that shouldn't be that hard if the rest of the world can do it.
Telesales must be a problem already, getting one of those calls is annoying getting one and paying for it...
A comparison of billing charges should show that Americans are not getting free calls but paying over the odds for the same service as we enjoy in Europe.
Minutes are minutes, and it doesn't matter who called whom. While this is a different decision from the European model, there is some reasonable logic - the benefit of being mobile accrues to the person with the mobile phone, so they should pay for it.
The benefit of me being mobile is that you are able to contact me when you choose, even if its 4 in the morning.
I have no control over when you decide to call me.
If I want to call you then I get the cost of doing so.
Actually in a sane system there is usually some form of deal available. With three.ie if i top up 20 a month I get 3000 minutes free calls and minutes at weekends 3000 texts for the month, before using the 20 euro credit. 5 euro of that I use for an internet add on. which could be used for tethering and it is all without a contract.
oh i forgot i have unlimited skype for the month also.
Skype for 1.06 cent will give me 60 minutes of calls to landlines in a typical country (skype credit will charge 2 cents a minute without a deal to call any landline in the world typically).
Maybe someone should set up a facebook group to voice a collective argument to end this practice of charging for incoming calls and texts. There must be a sizable number of Americans on facebook, maybe then there will be a few senators that will push bills to change this situation if enough Americans get behind this.
It is not the biggest issue in the world but its one that effects Americans individually and benefits corporation's enormously. How can it be that the most powerful nation on the Planet allows its citizens to be screwed over this way?
Back in the eighties the local council (Sheffield) introduced something they called passport to leisure. This enabled unemployed and retired people an other groups free access to council swimming pools (and other facilities) at off peak times.
Physical exercise helps increase physical and mental health, which makes it easier to integrate people back into the workplace. Having a large chunk of the population depressed bored and in bed till lunch time* and unfit to actually do a physical job is a bad thing. I guess these days if your unemployed you can sit around on facebook playing farmville.
There are other positives to be gained through this for the individual and the community. Just keeping people from becoming isolated and depressed and part of society is important not just for them but for you too.
You might argue that having a reduced charge would also be effective, however when people have very little money going swimming or to the gym are luxuries that can and will be cut out.
* Staying in bed was an effective way of living on nothing till your next bit of money came in. Bed clothes keep you warm without spending on heating or electricity for running tv's and cut food costs because you are not moving you expend less energy which means you can eat less.
So yes you can have a mixture of people paying and non paying to use the pool.
Can we get music for free legally yes turn the radio on. Films for free sure (last night there were maybe 10 films I could have watched without pay per view).
I can make my own entertainment too, play guitar , visit a library and read a book, go fishing, reply to posts on slashdot...
It isn't as simple as pay or do without, there are always options. Even now I am using firefox on ubuntu and I didn't steal or breach any copyright.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_the_United_States#States_and_territories_that_are_officially_bi-_or_trilingual
There is no official language of the United States. At the State level some states do, many do not, and some are officially bi or trilingual.
Refusal to accommodate students with language issues may be illegal in some states.
Some students may be disabled perhaps requiring Braille or some other input devices. The parent would fail steven hawking in a physics exam.
we live in a multicultural society and you are restricting your own development as a rounded individual if you ignore this. At the least learn a second language preferably one which will be useful to you. Not only will it take you places your brain will be exercised developed and expanded.
You are confusing things. your toilet connects to sewers, the road drainage also connects to sewers, (in town anyway country roads may drain into ditches or pebbles or whatever). Factories also connect to sewers, all the sewers connect to the sewage works or dump into the sea . The heavy metals they are probably contaminates from the factories and ground water, mines may also contribute.
The sewage works job take out the lumps this can be done with a metal conveyor with holes in like a colander which dumps to a trough like a water slide which goes to a machine that removes water and dumps the rest in a skip.
suspended grit which is in the water when it enters the works is removed in grit basins by blasting air through the water forcing the grit out of solution and oxygenating the water. then the next stage is into settling tanks for a while or filter beds and then usually into the river
In times of severe storms its often in the works and out into the river bypassing the process (rather than flooding the works) btw oxygenating the water is important otherwise the fish die , fish will swim in crap but they do need oxygen.
Many industrial cities since having the industry relocated now have rivers which are relatively clean and now support fish, least it gives you something to do with your enforced leisure time, you might even eat some of the fish.
The waste of life which is a loveless marriage fully supported by the church, the huge numbers of women raped within marriage the many women brutally attacked and assaulted by the husband.
It's a great institution marriage but without it a lot of these problems go away.
Its such a positive influence on children when they get to witness their fathers beating their mothers, staying together for the sake of the children, do they really need the scars?
It's with you the whole of your life and interferes with the relationships you form.
thanks daddy
90mph isn't that fast, here in Ireland the national limit is 125kmh or 75 mph in the UK its 70mph.
In reality most free flowing motorway traffic will travel at 80-90mph anyway without any pass.
Autobahn speeds are much higher more like 125 mph or more.
I am assuming that there isn't a proposal to allow 90mph on city streets as idea's go, people do it anyway so lets tax it, isn't that bad.
Interestingly it is a license to drive at these speeds for a day. Which suggests that there can be restrictions on who can qualify for the license based on age experience and driving record. It could be used as an incentive to drive to a higher standard.
Interesting If the ac up near the top of the page is correct then you only run windows and your sole reason to post here is to troll. Why bother? you must have more of a life than that (btw the new netbook interface in maverick blows chunks ) my netbook favourite has to be 10.04 unr with gnome-shell --replace (its a little quirky but works well for me.
