Actually, it does apply to regular cops. I guess you missed the NYPD setting up the "Constitution Free Zones" and "Free Speech Zones" under direction of the DHS during the Republican National Convention a few years back.
Very showy at the time, with hundreds being arrested, put in Riker's Island until after the convention was over, not being charged, and then released. Anywhere from 8-14 days after the end of the convention was the average.
There was even articles in Newsweek, Time, etc about it.
That's because instead of doing it the Windows way, where the malware clones the Windows error messaging system and reports what it wants, this particular malware just skips that step and outright attempts to suppress any warning windows whatsoever produced by OSX.
They won't sell this stuff. They'll keep it for themselves. All these forfeiture laws do is let law enforcement officers take over the spot of mafia members who took things for free also.
The only crap that ever gets sold is the stuff they rough up too much during the raid.
The TSA, on the other hand, not only steals your stuff, but makes arbitrary lists of what can and can not be taken on a plane, and then steals and sells THAT stuff.
You underestimate how many of those ICBMs were removed from stationary silos onto warships and submarines. Strangely enough, a large amount of the current number of nuclear arms in our inventory happen to be within easy striking distance of China via bodies of water near the Iraq and Afghan campaigns...
BTW, right now Congress is attempting to force Obama into upgrading the rest of the stockpile now that we signed the new START and left the previous anti-nuke treaty that had been signed under an older administration. Republicans (with the backing of several Dems) have tied this into an appropriations bill, namely the kind that the president is not allowed to veto by law.
To clarify that queue thing: It's to specifically queue random dungeons with friends on your RealID list, that happen to be on another realm, instead of ending up with 4 scrubs from random realms in your battlegroup as it currently is.
Makes it easier to make non-PUG, PUGs.
What's going to be irritating, is when they decide to make extra bag/bank slots Blizzstore/Subscription items, which is what it looks like it is shaping up to be. Tabard storage, I'm looking at you.
Not only this, but this may also be in response to Dell and other corporations in the US closing up their data processing/call centers in India and moving them elsewhere.
This will make it more difficult for any other US corporations to do the same.
Seeing as how every single one of those companies who signed, have headquarters in California, I don't see how they can cry unconstitutional barrier to trade, when the proposed law is dealing with California residents only. I could see this happen if they were trying to apply it to say, Oregon residents....
Which, even as a US citizen, I might have to agree with, seeing as how the US is only a tiny fraction of the entire world market, with nations such as China, India, Indonesia, Vietnam, etc poised to become the new world focus of innovation and consumerism.
And not even a whole game, only 1/3rd of the content, just so they can milk even more sales with the other 2/3rds.

Actually, you should take the oil and vinegar - olive oil provides protein and good cholesterol and the vinegar helps break down fibers and sugars contained in the veggies.
Has it ever occured to any of you voucher-toting nutjobs, that allowing this to happen will do several things, three of the main points I will list here:
A) Parents will indeed move their children to the best available schools, and then all of the sudden those schools are out of space and there's a giant waiting list, leaving everyone else still scrambling and stuck in the same "under-performing" schools as before.
B) Most schools are not required to provide transportation to their buildings, this is a taxpayer-funded courtesy. What do you think will happen if parents from thirty miles away use their vouchers to get their kids into that school? Hint: It won't be the school paying for that transportation, nor providing it. In fact, they might just refuse to provide transportation for any student, to save even more money.
C) In correlation to point A), what do you think is going to happen to the quality of so-called "best schools" when parents use their vouchers to send all of their ratty-assed non-performers to the so-called "best schools". Here's a hint: Very shortly after, those schools will no longer have the reputation of being the best school, but will be in the exact same boat as the under-performing schools are now.
Vouchers in any form, will eventually end up violating the tenets of Brown vs The Board of Education. I've seen it happen even where restricted vouchers are allowed for charter/cyber schooling. They are bad news all around.

Oh, also, it SOOOOOO helps whenever those Philadelphians get one of their people elected Governor of PA and he redirects almost all discretionary funding back to a single city in the state.
PA would have about zero budget problems if we just gave Philly to New Jersey and Pittsburgh to Ohio or West Virginia./rant
No offense to you in particular mate, I just hate Philadelphia. My wife loved living there. Then again, I am from Richmond, VA.
Harvard's grade inflation is notorious to the point that an A+ (4.0) at Harvard is worth about a C- (2.0) at someplace like RIT/MIT/CalTech/Stanford, and that it's been noticed and reported on in mainstream media more than once.
Also, it needs to learn how to pick better presidents than the last few yahoos it had in there.
Besides, parents don't send their children to Harvard for the education, they send them to Harvard for the contacts they will make.
It's more of a "Cover Your Ass" scenario. It may not be the most high-quality support, but it's support, and they can turn to the Board of Directors and the Shareholders and say, "Hey guys, Dell has got us covered. So we'll keep buying from them." Even though most aren't so dumb as to believe Dell gives much in the way of anything past trained monkey level of support.
This is because the old ink that can be x-rayed is Iron Gall and the new stuff is made out of various plant dyes coupled with petroleum byproducts and peanut oil extracts (which is why acetone and hairspray are quite good at removing/dissolving the new style inks).
Since there is metal compound (FeSO4 to be precise) in the old style ink, the x-ray obviously will pick that up.

Crude but effective.
His point is that he shouldn't have to be forced to use old, outdated hardware because the developers of his software have shit for brains.

That's because China has one "authority" for all information to start with - the government.
Currently, such information "control" is only a wet dream in Congress.

Only leave Bell Sympatico and Rogers above the current border. Especially Rogers. They can go huff a car exhaust.

I think Arizona and New York have already proven that.
I won't even touch the insanity that is California and Florida law.

Oops.
Unfortunately, with people like Barton, they refuse to see even after they've had their noses rubbed into the stinking pile.

Except for the fact that we've continually dropped in world-wide rankings since NCLB came into effect, you just might be right.

Thanks, for pointing this out. I installed the Chrome version, as I gave up on Firefox two years ago due to serious bugs that never get fixed.

They already catch the stupid criminals without this.
This is nothing but security theater, just like it is over in Europe.
Oh wait, it's the 10 year anniversary of 9/11 this year, coincidence? I think not.
