"The FCC voted 5-0 Thursday to add its authority to the do-not-call list and to plug holes in its protections. The registry will now also block telemarketers from industries whose calls the FCC regulates, including airlines, banks and telephone companies."
A: Yes. Any telemarketers calling U.S. consumers are covered, regardless of where they are calling from. If a company within the U.S. solicits sales through an overseas professional telemarketer, that U.S. company is liable for any violations by the telemarketer. The FTC can initiate enforcement actions against such companies.

Man that happened sooooooo many times in the movies that I was getting sick of seeing it! Man this game follows the Star Wars Universe so close it's just amazing!
Would you also hire someone to go home and play with his/her kids? Pick them up and drop them off from day care? Read books to them? Give them their baths? Take them to the park?
How about this as a solution to the PHB.
Hire a few contractors to take up the extra slack until the project is completed. Everyone stays on 8/hr workdays.
Thats a very good point. I do the same at my house with our units. I never turn it off, only the TV. I'm sure their plan still has merit, however. They can still track what shows people schedule to record, when you rewind, fast forward, etc.
My brother in law manages a gas station. They stay 4 cents above the the next gas station down the street. Every day on his way in, he checks their price and adjusts theirs if needed. Nothing collusion about it... just simple management. The guys near your place probably do the same thing.
You and me both. Very few people know where my screen name comes from (#1 answer: that porn guy, right? #2 answer: The guy in Dragons Lair?), those that do are all the old school crowd.
Well kinda they do. Even in modern day cartoons when a plane/chopper is shot out of the sky (or smashes into a anything) the crew safely parachute out GI Joe style.
I used to get up so early I would have to sit through Casper the Friendly Ghost and Smurfs just to get to Voltron, then Star Blazers and He Man after that I think it was. It wasn't so bad (Casper) because at that time... somewhere around 5:30am, I would be eating my 2 bowls of Count Chocula. I was all fired up by the time the holy grail of cartoons came one (Robotech, Transformers, Dungeons and Dragons).
You and me both. I work for SAIC and yy entire group doesn't do a thing spy related. We do portals, webpages, and analytical junk on treaty agreements.

"I don't think bandwidth will be the determining cost - that's a price that has been falling and will continue to fall."
If their bandwidth prices fall, but their usage skyrockets you can sure bet that is a determining cost.

And this makes it any different than them *already having my number* exactly how again?
And that would be an $11,000 fine.

Q: Are telemarketing calls from overseas covered?
A: Yes. Any telemarketers calling U.S. consumers are covered, regardless of where they are calling from. If a company within the U.S. solicits sales through an overseas professional telemarketer, that U.S. company is liable for any violations by the telemarketer. The FTC can initiate enforcement actions against such companies.
What is he going to do when the Do Not Email registry begins?
"This suggests that telemarketers should/will use the list as a "call now" list during September."
They can't, read the rules.

At least they got one thing right.

Now that wasn't so hard, was it?

Why, do you cheat? Afraid of playing someone with some skill?
Oh common, you can't expect anyone to have a video of the crime.
I mean sheesh, video recorders won't be invented for centuries yet in Shadowbane.

Maybe one day a technology will exist where you can send energy to locations that require power by solar so cells won't have to be used at all.

We can't spell 'cashier' either.
Especially the ones that are totally harmless.

What the hell are you talking about?
"I have a feeling that those Recording Industry people wouldn't have 1/2 of a clue on how to hack my Linux box?"
No, but the plethora of startup starving companies employing experts in hacking sure do - and the RIAA has deep pockets to employ them.
