we should probably have warnings on powder blue crayons too. cause god know how bad it is when one of those gets jammed up your nose and i know from experience that this happens all the time same with screwdrivers and pencils and pens, and come to think of it every other pointy object, they dont have warnings- it must be ok.
IANAL, but my wife does happen to be in law school... and as such I do pick up a bit from her daily decompressions.
Cases such as the tragic crayon incident are considered from the perspective of a hypothetical "reasonable person." While the two sides may argue about the definition of a reasonable person, I think that you'd be hard-pressed to make a case that shoving a crayon up your nose is a reasonable use of said crayon.

/me looks over his shoulder at another four years of Shrub with majority of congress, an even worse AG nominated already and 4 SC Justices due for replacement...
Right because we've all seen how well the alternative works out.
On a local scale, the company is providing a product (ie: a job) and the workers are the consumers of that product. If they don't like the way that the company is treating them, they can either refuse the product (ie: quit) or take other actions to attempt to rectify their problems with the company (ie: form a union).
No governmental interference involved. Principles intact. So what were you talking about again?
This is the first actual explanation I've seen for a reason to select Camino over FF and it has me convinced to give it another try.
I started using Camino (Chimera, at the time) when I got sick of OmniWeb (version 0.5, maybe?) and switched from Camino to Firefox in order to see what all the hype was about. I've downloaded updates as they came out but haven't really given them much of a chance. I simply didn't see any reason to do so.
John Smith of Nowhere, PA is reportedly not planning an online music store. We have yet to receive official confirmation that Mr. Smith, a 72 year-old retired janitor at Nowhere Middle School who is a local hero after bowling a 300 game back in '86, is indeed without plans for opening an online music store at any point within the next 6-12 months. Neighbor and long time friend Bob Jones was quoted as saying, "Nope. Y'uns gotta believe it... he ain't never thought of it a'once."
We'll have more on this breaking story as it develops.
First of all, I voted for Harry Brown last time around and I intend to vote Libertarian again. As a Massachusetts resident, I have the luxury of voting my conscience rather than voting against Shrub and I fully intend to exercise it. The "lesser evil" approach has always bothered me on principle.
The thing is, however, I don't really buy the entirety of the Libertarian platform. While I firmly believe that a Libertarian president (bear with me, guys... we're talking principles, not probability) would take some steps towards reform that would do a great deal of good for the country as a whole, I find the whole basic premise of the party to be flawed in one crucial fashion, which (finally) leads to my question:
How much of the Libertarian platform is based upon the belief that citizens and entities will automatically act in the public's best interest when liberated from governmental interference and how do you defend the basic concept against those who think that people and corporations are too inherently selfish to make universal deregulation function in a safe and productive fashion?
Why would people pay money to Microsoft to post comments and short, misspelled paragraphs about their lives?
The basic service is free (according to TFA). It's not about getting ¥ from the users, it's about controlling another standard and another portal in order to use it to try to corner another market.
Then they can use the information they've farmed for whatever nefarious ends they wish. Of course it's nefarious. It's always nefarious. Not just because it's M$ but because it's business.
As it is now, all those 1-D games that we all know and love each operate on an entire different API! In one game it's all Up and Down. In another it's North/South... or +/-. Madness, I say!
Actually it was 0.7 for ages... 0.8 just came out in mid-May.
It took me forever to switch from Camino to Firefox - sadly enough mostly because I like the aqua form elements and such - but I eventually did. Now I just can't get myself to switch back and I can't see a reason to do so, really.
Anyone? Why bother with Camino (dear as it may be) anymore?

Ok, this is for your own good.
There were no locations, props or actors... That's the whole point.

Looks like I need to turn to EA for my Arena Football League fix.
Wait a second... Who the Hell would ever possibly need an AFL fix? I mean, really... Arena football?
Go Sega. Make a more comedic football game where you can make your own stars. Throw in a few, good, fluffy characters and you're good to go.
Though I would not be too surprised to see it come out for Panther in a patch about the same time.
They didn't provide updates for 10.1 when 10.2 came out with 1.4... why would they change that now?
Sure, it's occasionally annoying but if you want the new features, you have to pay to upgrade.

I certainly hope that other short distance wireless technologies (like WUSB) do take off.
WUSB will never take off, sadly. It's just too ugly of an acronym and people are sheep.
