1) No. Human rights are not granted to individuals by the US Constitution; the Constitution grants powers to the US government. All individuals have the same rights, whether a US citizen or not. That's what 'inalienable' means. For an immigrant, living in the US is a privilege, not a right.
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
2) That's INalienable, and besides, US citizenship is not a human right.
I use the chrisjs build (not sure if the USB part is different from vanilla Rockbox) and plug in after I boot into Rockbox which charges it while at the same time lets me listen all day. I hate my pc sound, the e200 has really great quality audio.
You have to restart in original firmware to move files, but it's not like it takes a long time to start or anything. I have high hopes they'll get native USB mounting soon.
What you've written is a funny ad for Ubuntu, not Windows Vista. Not all commercials are about selling a product. Sometimes they're about building brand awareness, name recognition, or goodwill.
Dude, what's your problem? I can't wait to read "Understanding of Existence" which will explain the Meaning of Life and lay out the perfect theory of moral philosophy by reknowned philosopher EmotionToilet from Slashdot.
Buying a second home has never been feasible for most of the population. It's only been during the last 50 years or so when credit became more accessible that most people were able to buy even their first homes without saving for most of their lives for a down payment.
Down by the city lakes in Minneapolis there are porta-potties. I know that these things cost nowhere near $5 million to install, clean and maintain over their useful lifetimes. The issue here is not the cost or even the automation of the public bathrooms, but how a publicly-available private space will get used for all kinds of private things.
Our public toilets are mainly used by joggers, bicyclists, kids, and I'm sure the occasional Larry Craig. The real issue is whether the need for public toilets for legitimate purposes overrides the Senator's uses. If there aren't enough people around for somebody to call the police then either lock the bathrooms during low-traffic times or reexamine why you've placed a public toilet in a low-traffic area.
It appears that you're saying only Democrats got rebate checks, or that only Democrats would spend those funds on political donations. I don't believe this is true. Moreover, it doesn't matter where the money came from originally, just that Democrats are more willing to donate during this election cycle.
Though it would be sweetly ironic if you were right.
I looked at donation records for my area in the last two elections, and to my surprise the people giving money to Republicans maxed out their donations at $2000 per person. The Democrats were way more numerous, but vanishingly few gave more than $100 each. This year the Democrats are averaging $300 each, with more $2000 donations. The Republicans aren't all maxing their donations, but a lot more of them are going to Ron Paul and a handful of non-McCain candidates. It doesn't track corporate donations or 'soft-money', but I'd imagine those tend to go Republican anyway, and besides, which corporations are going to donate more to a Republican candidate because they saw them on Colbert?
This is why Colbert 'bumps' donations to Democrats and not Republicans--individual Democrats appear to have more money to spend on donations this year.
I don't believe that the passage addresses hypocrisy; it's about not schooling other people in morality--an attempt to eradicate self-righteousness or promote humility with a recursive function.
Matthew 7:5 - You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye, and then you will see clearly enough to remove the speck from your brother's eye.
I challenge you that, instead of complaining about how others are not doing the right thing, go out and do the right thing yourself. How much better would that make the world?
The Goddard Museum is an absolute must for any scientists or fans of Steampunk. It's his entire laboratory as if he just stepped out for lunch, filled with workbenches and tools and gadgets right out of some crazy 50s futurist comic book. I only wish I had photos.

FIVE: Copying, reposting, and recirculating a work or part of a work for purposes of launching a discussion
Somebody post a copy of Windows XP: I want to memorialize and preserve it, and I'd like to launch a discussion about how MS should continue to sell and support XP.
I guess what I'm saying is, as nice as these Fair Use guidelines are, they're only as good as the lawyers that fight for them and the deep pockets that will fund them.
I can see from your response that you are clearly not an economist. You also didn't read or respond to the items in my post, which means you're either trolling or just ignorant.
On the off-chance that you're ignorant and not trolling, let me remind you that I agree with you that the total number of resources on Earth is finite. What you seem unable to grasp is that not all of those resources are extractable at the same rate of return. For example, significant amounts of oil are locked in shale, which makes it difficult and expensive to extract, way more expensive than just drilling a relatively shallow hole in the ground. Until recently the price of oil had not reached a point where it became cost-effective to extract it from shale, but now oil companies are beginning to do just that because they're running out of places they can cheaply dig holes. Therefore by your own logic you are wrong: though the resource supply is ultimately finite the rate at which it can be made available is flexible to some extent.
Moreover, as we run out of easily-available oil it becomes more expensive--as anyone visiting a gas station recently can clearly see. According to you the laws of supply and demand do not apply to oil (an ultimately finite resource), so why are gas prices going up? Some grand world-wide conspiracy? Honestly, if not supply and demand, what do you think controls the price of gas? And if you say OPEC, why don't they just sell their oil at $5000 a barrel? Or $5,000,000?

That's great. When they want to look at a different patch of sky, they can just just swivel the moon.
I can charge my e200 while listening to Rockbox. The sound quality is also much better than the stock firmware.

You can paint LEDs onto toys now? Soon I will finally realize my dream of a cheap illuminated suit!
I don't understand your analogy. Can you use one involving cars?
