Yeah, I guess I would go back to 2000 as well. I have bad memories of 2000 because I had so many devices that did not have driver support in 2000. For that matter, I might go back to NT for crash free operation, but that was definitely not aimed as domestic users and I never used it for my personal operating system.
Deductible gifts? I hope that you mean you exclude them from your income... You might consider them deductible if you report the income and then deduct it? Does PayPal report your receipts as gifts or something? Otherwise, you would not report or deduct the income if it is properly considered a gift.
Don't know about the license, but I believe that the casino is required to report the winning to the IRS if the amount is over a certain threshold. I've never heard of it being illegal for them to use your SSN to report the money to the IRS.
I thought of another way to fake this. Just use the rear inputs on the television hooked up to another xbox 360 with the real game in it. That'd be much easier than making a fake video.
Software companies pay to have their demo software installed when the computer ships. They are subsidizing the cost of the computer. If no OS is installed, this can't occur. Accordingly, the no-OS box is more than the OS-installed box. Just buy the XP installed computer and format the hard drive.
Windows instructions: Select Add/Remove programs from the control panel. Select iTunes and click remove. Not exactly rocket science. But I know, windows sucks so it doesn't matter...
No, its not a crime to look like you are laundering money. The law states (copied from the link in a related post):...for the purpose of evading the reporting requirements of section 5313 (a) or 5325 or any regulation prescribed under any such section...
If you are not purposely evading the reporting requirements it is not a crime. This purpose would have to be proved before you could be found guilty. Evidence that you appear to be doing it is not enough. Throughcrime undeed...(sorry)
Your logic doesn't really make sense. Just because they search for string literals doesn't mean that they don't search for other things. It doesn't even imply that.
Welcome to the conversation, I've been responding to this comment: "Yeah, and the fact that the present administration is holding anyone indefinitely without trial--U.S. citizens or no--is totally against the principles for which we're supposedly fighting." In other words, we were discussing enemy combatant detentions.
I really don't have a strong opinion about the spying program at this time, though, if I had to choose, I'd be against it in general.
You're right I didn't. I said he is operating within the bounds set by Congress. I concede that Bush is free from blame, but it is Congress' job to reign in the executives powers. To me, this put Congress more to blame. Otherwise Bush is sitting there saying: well they authorized me to do this. Congress has a more direct relation to the people's will and should be handling that power accordingly. Thus, if you find this issue troublesome, I think that the unpleasantness should be directed more to Congress. If the pres is acting within the delegation of power from Congress and following the specific guidelines of such delegation, I don't find issue there. But, hey, its just my educated opinion... judging by your response, I'm sure you aren't really that interested in reason...
The current administration is operating within the bounds set by Congress. If you want to find blame, find blame with them for authorizing such detentions. Further, there is no holding indefintiely...see any recent SCOTUS opinion.
You said: If anything this should give people a clue that the tax system is broken. Not only is it overly complicated it also a fraud perpetuated on the American people. It relies on ignorance and to some extent class warfare to continue in its current form.
TFS said: admitted it had miscalculated its own state income taxes
Yet for comment is entirely about Federal Tax Law; something to whcih this story is not even related. It is about the tax laws of the state of California. Furthermore, TFA doesn't even give enough information to determine how HR screwed up.
It is my understanding that you can't deduct volunteer services, only expenses that you incur as a result of those volunteer services. Expenses might be office supplies and mileage (not exactly big ticket items). This site seems to agree with me: http://www.bankrate.com/brm/itax/tips/20010402a.as p
Time to get updated. Under the previous set of rules, utility patents lasted 17 years from issue. Under current rules, utility patents last 20 years from filing (with several exceptions beyond the scope of this discussion).
You thought about that much more critically that I ever could on a Friday! After reading your analysis I feel silly for not thinking the same thing. However, you are correct, 50% below the median just doesn't sound great!
I'm pretty sure the meant, no need to be a student to download the tracks. Not: No need to be a student because you can get your education through iTunes.
The Supreme Court found that it wasn't unconstitutional. Since the Supreme Court is the one that ultimately gets to interpret the constitution, this pretty much makes it constitutional by definition. While I agree that it isn't right and no law-making body should authorize it, it isn't unconstitutional.

For me and most other people that I've talked to, the crashes ended with XP...

As long as the 1% remaining is your desired portion...

To use your SSN for what?

Great post! I'm still laughing. If it wasn't so funny, it'd be insightful!

LOL. That is a great quote.

They don't even have to sue you. They have rights based on the employment contract. The assignment is just a way of "dotting the i".
