Every politician is an average person, who has to live by the same rules that you do. They get elected to do what the people want. Not from the US are ya? Let me fix that up so it works for the US.
Every politician is a rich person, who has to live by the rules they make up. They get elected to do whatever they want. There, that makes so much more sense to someone living in the US. Yes, I realize your were speaking of this mythological theory of Democracy, but those that live in the US have a different concept for that theory.
I found the perfect solution to this. The females of the household want the seat down as default so they won't fall in when they don't bother to look first.
My solution was to close both the seat and the lid. This gives neither side the advantage of default position.
That wheelchair always bothered me. They have all that uber cool technology; transporters, phasers, space travel, and the best they can do for this guy is hook up a light that blinks once for yes and twice for no?
They randomly select people to participate and those that agree get to install software on their computer that monitors their surfing and sends that data back to Neilsen.
I participated in the program a few years back but had to uninstall the software as you could not configure when the data was sent. It invariably chose a time at which my bandwidth was most precious, i.e. during some online game.
Even better, set up recruiters to meet each other for lunch. Tell all the recruiters in a given week to meet you next Tuesday at 1pm in some trendy popular spot. Just give your name as the previous recruiters name.
I bet that would be worthy of filming. Nothing like 20 fuming recruiters that just wasted an hour for great entertainment.
Since the game is currently limited Eriador and a level 50 cap, will each new region opening also bring an increase in the level cap, or will players conceivably have to play new regions at cap?
I was an alpha tester and loved the game but did not carry into retail because I felt I would either be on the constant level grind or banging my head on a level cap with each new area.

I worked for Omega World Travel in their "web" department and worked specifically on the cruise.com property. This was a number of years ago just before the DotCom bust.
I had the chance to work directly with the owner Gloria Bohan and her husband Daniel Bohan. It's a woman owned biz on paper, he really runs the show.
At the time I worked there, they had not yet grapsed the concepts of the internet well yet, but had very hot properties (cruise.com) that were pulling in very lucrative money from what I gathered. They were expending large sums in purcashing domains and had plans to grow the division. They did recognize the potential of the internet market, but had a very poor understanding of technical details at the time.
I was originally hired to increase their standings in search engines and design banners for advertising. I used the usual techniqes of the day including keyword stuffing to get better positioning. Of course this included using some names of competitors.
To show you how clueless the owner was at the time, he saw the competitors name in the keywords during a weekly meeting and proceeded to whine (yes, he whined like a child, stamped his feet, and had tantrums) about his competitor showing in the keywords. I attempted to explain the reasons and was told I didn't know what I was doing (the main reason I was hired), to remove the keywords, and go back to my office.
Suffice to say that was my last day on the job. Now I read this article and I am not suprised one bit by the actions of cruise.com and OWT. I am sure that once Dan grasped the concept of email solicitaion the flood gates were opened. To see that he has been stupid enough to direct his legal department to follow this course of action is about par for him. He still dosen't fully understand the whole picture.
I sure hope the people I worked with there have been smart enough to move on.
