But the problem is getting the waste material to the place where it can be composted/wasted. In large urban slums, that's not so easy, and installing toilets and sewage pipes isn't exactly practical an alternative.
This is excellent timing; I clicked on the link to a video on the previous/. story but my sound was not working. I thought, "man, I wish more videos were closed-captioned," not just for lazy people like me but also for the hearing impaired.
Finally it'll be easier for me to share these videos with my deaf and hard-of-hearing friends!
Anybody can sue anybody for anything, and seek any amount in damages. The issues are: will the case be accepted by the courts, is the defendant found guilty, and are the damages awarded as highly as sought?
Listen, you can either drop everything and study your ass off for the better part of a decade to get a PhD in atmospheric science, or listen to the people who have them.
Easier said than done. When most alleged climate science is broadcast through the mass media, how can the average Joe tell if they're a genuine climate scientist or just some niche biologist who was asked to sit on some talk show panel?
I'm guessing from your comments that State DMV's don't share information with each other if you were able to get licensed in each of them, which is quite galling.
It looks like you're presuming that since he knows which states this law applies, it must be because he tried to get a license in state B when he got it rejected in state A. That is a premature assumption.
The simpler explanation is that he saw a state law he disagreed with, and compared this with the laws in other states.
Why in the world would anyone in the future care about a website that barely even stuck around for a month.
A newspaper is only around for a day, yet we still keep archive copies of them (microfiches, Google scans, etc.).
Similarly, a newspaper may have a website that lasts for years, but the layout will frequently be adjusted and the content constantly changing. Without archiving it at various points, you lose the ability to see how that website used to look, and how much current functionality we take for granted.
The reason, of course, is that in the former case, its the bank's money on the line (until you pay them), but in the latter case, its your money on the line.
Um, actually in the former case it's the merchant's money on the line. You don't pay the credit card company, they don't pay the merchant.
Seriously. The day after the incident, photos of the crash were in all major papers. And now the IOC is essentially blaming the family's anguish on a blogger.
With that in mind I am proud of my Government for resisting the tide.
Don't be too hasty. The Government would have passed draconian copyright legislation a long time ago (they've tried a few times) if it weren't for the fact that it's a minority government.
Not sure exactly how Spotify works, but this is what I like about last.fm. I pay three bucks a month to listen to music on their servers. There's no multi-month discount, so I have no incentive to renew for many months at a time.
If their library gets gutted by Big Music, the most I'm really out is three bucks, and I move my listening time and money elsewhere.

Why the fuck are you looking for medical advise on twitter?
Marketing/adverts != medical advice.
Generally one doesn't look for advertisements.

PBS puts watermarks on their videos, so arguably a screenshot could arguably be not a "verbatim copy" (by very persistent lawyers, no doubt).
