But if the warrant specifies drugs (which could reasonably be hidden in a sock drawer), and when searching the sock drawer find a pistol, they can seize the pistol, even though it's not on the warrant.
No they can't. They can only seize it if it is illegal, by itself, for the owner to possess. Now, if they find drugs as well they can probably do so under the right circumstances.
Owning a firearm, in and of itself, is not illegal for most people. This, of course, excludes certain persons such as felons, the mentally unstable and most legal, yes legal, aliens.
The entire basis for this case is illegitimate. They are saying, since email is handled by a third party, the actual owner doesn't need to be notified. This would widely apply to damned near everything we do nowadays. My money is under the control of a third party, my bank. Does this mean they can get my bank records without notifying me? Does it mean they can search my house without notifying me? After all, I don't actually own it yet, the bank does.
Ok, you go get the vaccine. I'm not telling YOU not to. I'm just saying why I am not going to get it. Also, it wasn't a one time event. My mother had the same experience, along with a few of my friends.
There's a word on the tip of my tongue.....oh yeah, it's jackass.
However I don't see a reason why people shouldn't take the H1N1 vaccine.
I'll give you a reason. The one and only time I got a flu shot I had the worst flu of my life and had it for almost two weeks.I was usually was over the flu, when I even got it, in 3 days. I haven't had it in 5 or 6 years now and have no reason to risk getting it again from the shot.
The biggest difference is that Vista required a major hardware upgrade to run properly.
Again, that is just simply not true, at least not all the time. I put the Vista RC on my P4 3.0GHz machine with 1GB of RAM and it ran as fast, or faster, than XP on the exact same hardware. Windows 7 runs faster than Vista on my Macbook Pro, in Bootcamp AND VMWare Fusion.
That's one of the things that excites me the most about the Droid. I have a Samsung Omnia running WM6.1 and the 5 MP camera is pretty decent. It's one of the things I was worried about losing whenever Verizon finally got Android. With the MotoDroid, I no longer have to worry about that.
What is so hard to understand about my post? 3D modeling programs are still a 2D representation because they are on a flat screen. A 3D display would increase the realism by making you change focal planes.
Nothing you say will help because you're not saying anything useful.
Yes, I'm sure he's going to be building a clay model, or maybe sand, at the beach.
I never said anything about the model not having all 3 dimensions. I said simply that you see a 2D representation. Your eyes are focused on a 2D display. With 3D display technology your eyes actually do change focal planes.
Remind me never to use your designs since you don't know the difference between a 3D model and 3D vision. When you're making a model, no matter what computer you're using, you're still looking at a 2D representation of it on screen.
How can somebody sue Toyota over the drivetrain in the Prius, claiming they have a patent for it, when Toyota bought a patent from GM to use for said drivetrain?
That's the problem here. They want to meter speed AND amount. They can't have both. They've been given billions of dollars to build a network, I pay too much for the speed i get already and now they want to make me pay more for the AMOUNT of data I use? I think not.
Agreed. I switched my one remaining XP machine and my Windows 7 install on my Macbook Pro over to it from AVG. It is far faster and more lightweight than even AVG.
Why is this "Rivals Mock It" even a story? Of course Norton is going to blast it. They're going to lose some customers, like your parents, to it and more in the future once people start finding out about it on their own.
Nothing of that sort happened though. I was copying data off the drive for over an hour with no hiccups of any kind. I continued to play with it after getting all the needed data off by moving folders around and creating text files and such. Again, never a hiccup.
I had a similar experience with a friend of my wife's not too long ago. I came up as somebody who may be able to get data off her hard drive so she brought it to me. She had taken it to a place called Data Doctors here around Phoenix. I had heard of them but never dealt with, so I looked them up. They seem to be a franchise based chain. Reviews from Google maps were mixed...I am worried. She tells me that she took her laptop in after it failed to boot. They had it for 3 days, charged her something like $150-250 for their diagnosis and finally tell her they have to send it to "their outside data recovery service" to get her data. This is what many of the the reviews I read had been like.
She brings over the drive, now out of the laptop, and leaves it. I tell her I'll do my best but not to expect anything. She leaves. I plug in the drive to my laptop via a USB/SATA/IDE adapter and it instantly shows up and is fully readable/writable. I call her cell phone and leave a message saying it looks to be perfectly fine. This took all of 30 seconds to complete.
I also told her she should go back to Data Doctors and demand her money back or take them to small claims court for it. They, quite obviously, never even attempted to look at her drive.
Interestingly, this is the same crowd that seems to have no problem celebrating Kevin Mitnick's turnaround and subsequent success.
You seem to be forgetting that Mitnick never actually broke any laws. He also never had any nefarious intentions, unlike this guy. Personally, I think time served is time served and he should be left alone, as long as he returned the money.
Microsoft can't even launch an mp3 player that is good, they haven't even bothered launching it in the UK and much of Europe.
Well, you haven't been paying much attention have you? The Zune is a GREAT MP3 player. The iPod wasn't perfect when it was first introduced either. The Zune HD looks amazing and will hopefully have an App store.

Electric cars gain energy by braking without friction.
No they don't. They gain energy from being plugged in. Using "usually wasted energy" is not GAINING energy. It's simply not wasting it.
Don't blame the person who actually leaked it, blame the damned software! Ahh...I love politics.
Now you know how law abiding gun owners, like me, feel. You cannot blame an inanimate object.
Yep, that's what I said. I reject modern medicine. It was also an anecdote, since it didn't actually happen to me or anyone I know.
Oh, wait...

As if my eyes don't change focal planes as I read text or shift my head to the side a millimeter when looking at a 2D screen.
Well, no, they don't. They're always focused on the plane of the screen, no matter where your head is. There is no depth.
Try again, yourself.

In both cases, I am not wrong.

I was wrong. I think I was thinking of a state tax law I read. Federal taxes give no exceptions.

The prize has to be of a certain value. I don't think the 360 would meet that price point.
without something having gone wrong in their sexual upbringing (and I, too, find the thought of my parents having sex 'icky', make no mistake)
So what happened to you?
That's the problem here. They want to meter speed AND amount. They can't have both. They've been given billions of dollars to build a network, I pay too much for the speed i get already and now they want to make me pay more for the AMOUNT of data I use? I think not.

No such luck.

The things he confessed to, and was charged with, were not crimes when he did the act. This is why he was held without charge, remember.
