It is your mother if the manufacturer programmed it to go off every day at 7.00, even if you don't have school/work.
Your alarm clock goes off because YOU instructed it to. Not because someone else is enforcing their habits and/or rules on you.
"enforcing their rules on you", perhaps a better word than "mother" would be "annoying".
eg. This new technology is "annoying".
Alternatively, you could call it technology that prevents you from doing what you want to do
who cares is it was 9 months, or 3 years and nine months. all that matters is that now i can update and play read dead redemption, and still install another OS when sony stops supporting ps3.
The cubicle wall provides a place to hide when a button-down, Oxford-cloth psycho who is sick of working in a cubicle snaps, and then stalk the office with an Armalite AR-10 carbine gas-powered semi-automatic weapon, pumping round after round into colleagues and co-workers.
Even though I agree that parents should teach this information, the fact that few people know this information shows that it's not being done. I am not worried about my kids knowing this information, but society would be better if other peoples kids knew this information. If I know first aid, I can save your life. If I am incapacitated, who can save mine? That is the reason I think it should also be taught in school, to increase the number of people who have this information.
It's easier for the government to take away people's rights, when most don't know what they are.
My point is solely that teaching kids this information would be more beneficial to society then having them memorize dates and teaching them what happened on April 11, 1954.
He's already in custody; he turned himself in in the UK.
I guess that's what happens when you get INTERPOL set upon you for the crime of having consensual sex with groupies without a condom. Groupies who remained supportive after their sexual trysts until they found out that he was sleeping around. Because that's the sort of stuff INTERPOL is there for, right? Certainly politics didn't play a role in THAT warrant...
consensual rape is a serious crime, even if the charges are dropped and then reinstated at a later time.
Wait, I guess "Less Serious Rape" isn't a serious crime.

oh sure, when he's at a baseball game it's work, but if I am it's not. At least I had to pay for my own ticket.
Also, why would he stake out a baseball game, just stake out their house.
Let's face it, I don't know if the Terrorists have "won", but we have surely lost. Terrorists have changed our lives, robbed us of many of our guaranteed rights and freedoms (in the US this has occurred with the aid of our government), and we are paying for it every day (and not just with dollars).

Or you could just pay fucking attention to your own kids.

Not even mentioning that the internet is a global system, web sites come from anywhere. It's going to be impossible to get every country in the world to agree on something like this. And filtering doesn't work either. Oddly, if filtering worked on peoples individual computers they might stop pushing for filtering the entire internet (which obviously also wont work)

Why people still like cubicles.

There's no such thing as "consensual rape". That's a contradiction in terms. If it's consensual, it's not rape.

Agreed, a "Life Skills" class should taught at every grade.

I wonder if Dolly will remember me
Rubidium is the best element name i've ever heard
Why does 15 Mbps down cost $50? but 150 Mbps only costs $195?
If speeds don't scale like I think they do, then someone explain it to me please.
