No, TFS is correct. Read further down the article, specifically the bottom of page 2.
This leaves it to the military leadership (Obama and the joint chiefs) to decide whether to allow open homosexuals to serve, if they find that it would not affect "troop readiness, cohesion or military recruitment and retention", which a recent report by the pentagon says it wouldn't, so this should be happening shortly.
You mean the one the government required Bell to fund so they could keep their monopoly? And the one that has now completely removed itself from material physics, basic science, and semiconductor research in favor of "immediately marketable areas"?
These are private cables owned by private companies. The FCC was empowered by Congress to regulate the PUBLIC airwaves and that's it.
Incorrect. The FCC was empowered to regulate internet service providers and cable companies by the the Telecommunications Act of 1996. They're just not allowed to ban obscene programming on them because title V of that act (aka the communications decency act) was struck down on 1st amendment grounds. All the other powers in the act remain available, as do the ones granted in the Cable Television Protection and Competition Act of 1992.
Yeah, but you're comparing a 10 year old truck and a 50 year old plane. Even your 12 year old RV-8 uses an engine designed in the 60s or 70s.
As far as I understand it, it's a royal (and expensive) PITA to get new aviation engines approved (for obvious reasons), combined with a small market, means companies continue to use ancient designs with only minor tweaks, if that.
Your truck's engine gets about 45 horsepower/L (using figures for a 2000 Silverado half-ton with the 4.3L gas engine), whereas your RV-8 gets 28-30 depending on which engine. If one were to use an engine designed using modern knowledge and technology, I wouldn't bet against doubling the fuel economy of your planes., if not more.
It's basically the same as if the supreme court declined to hear the case. The 9th circuit's decision stands within its jurisdiction, but not anywhere else.
Heard? She wasn't a judge in the 9th circuit. She was Solicitor General and she filed a brief regarding this case when it was being heard by the 9th circuit court. It shouldn't be a long term problem, as she was only in that position a little more than a year.
Regardless of what a dictionary says, executive order 13526 (and 12958 and 12356 before it) explicitly states "Classified information shall not be declassified automatically as a result of any unauthorized disclosure of identical or similar information.".
I also think this situation is really stupid, but it is the current state of law.
Except they do an end run around that by offering server co-location inside their network for $$$ so they don't have to go through the clogged pipe to the rest of the world.
Or type 3 - people who have a clue about the actual radiation levels there today. You'll take a higher dose of radiation on your flight over there and back than you will take during a day tour in the zone. The levels are high enough that living there on a full time basis isn't a good idea, but a day or two is fine.
Being as state and municipal governments are the ones giving Comcast the franchise agreements (read: protected monopoly status) in exchange for various benefits, it is dramatically unlikely they would do anything with regard to opening competition or regulating their practices.
It's not that radioactive in most of the zone anymore. Even if you spent a full day in the most radioactive accessible area (~200m from the actual remains of the reactor), you'd take about 120 microsieverts of radiation (about 5% of your normal annual background exposure) or a little less than the exposure from 2 transatlantic flights.
In other words, you will take on more radiation flying there than you will touring the zone.
They deliberately use inadequate links to the outside world so you (e.g. netflix or any other service that requires substantial sustained bandwidth) have to pay them to put your servers inside their network so your customers can get adequate service.
Or they can refuse to allow you to place your servers in their network and cut you out of the market in their areas, which in netflix's case, they also compete in with their own video-on-demand service.
Yes, they are safe from that brand of faulty design. No reactor used anywhere else in the world has a large positive void coefficient and nothing else uses that insane design of control rods. Then add in other stuff like a containment building.
Even the 11 remaining reactors of that same design had those flaws fixed.
OTOH, our healthcare is managed provincially for the most part, so you could probably make gains with making it federal and reducing the duplication of administration and the larger risk pool.
A military for common defense is a THING, not a right. It cost money to produce, people to work for it, technology and skills to enhance it. Roads are a THING, not a right. They cost money to produce, people to work for them, technology and skills to enhance them.
Yet the constitution you're waving around mentions explicitly both of these as things that can be secured by taking from others, in the form of taxes.
You don't seem to understand the basic concept either and insist on screaming incoherently about people taking your kidneys.

That is a wiring adapter, not a converter. It relies on the monitor having its own ADC to handle the analog VGA signal, which not all do.

1. And we had the same dire predictions 18 years ago when the Canadian forces decided to do this. Guess what? There were no problems with it.
2. The Canadian forces have had women in combat for 28 years. Again, dire predictions turned out to be bogus.

Wonderful, so it's only precedent in 1/5th of the country.
I resent that. I have Asperger's and I can't stand open floor plan offices either.

The graph looks perfectly sensible if you consider the times to be given in UTC.

I'll presume that giving a tax break for investing in an IRA is also unconstitutional.
$750/person probably wouldn't cover it. Estimates here in Canada put annual healthcare spending at $5,452/person.
OTOH, our healthcare is managed provincially for the most part, so you could probably make gains with making it federal and reducing the duplication of administration and the larger risk pool.

You are correct. The "stem cells from abortions" is a political windmill, not anything that actually exists.
VGA-DVI adapters (actually converters, as you need to do analog-to-digital) exist, they're just rather expensive.

It was part of the whole collection. I'd prefer them to release the lot of it rather than pick and choose what to release.
As for evidence of corruption or misbehavior, this may fit that.

Also corruption evidence for the governments of other countries, such as Italy, Moldovia, lots on Russia, and more.
I dunno. It tastes kinda irony.
