Much of the sheet music I've ever seen put out by the publishers is shit anyway - totally missing the nuances of how the songs were played, often missing entire sections of songs. The "Yes Complete" book is far from it. The Zeppelin sheet music book was laughable. The Chicago book was probably the most thorough I've seen, and even it dumbed the songs down horribly.
The specifics I won't argue, sounds like you're more up on the nuances than I am - that said, my comments about pharma having to take abuse of Dex seriously still stands - I saw two products in development shelved because of the issue. The market seemed like it was going to be a very good seller and very inexpensive to make - but the abuse concerns, and the indicators from the FDA and DEA at the time, canned it.
There are quite a few cough medicines with dextromethorphan that do not contain pseudoephedrine. Realize that dex is an optiate - while it is not restricted because it is a long-off derivative of its cousins, in large enough doses, it will cause the typical euphoria of the more potent opiates. Dex tripping was nearly unheard of, and is now causing waves of alarm in pharmaceutical companies.
The pseudoephedrine ordeal is really just about making it harder for the methamphetamine makers to do what they do.. the DEA has tracked pseudoephedrine sales for YEARS. The regulation is only here as a knee-jerk by the general public (state/local government).
Landline 911 calling is not FCC either... it is a PUC requirement. And even then, the line can be completely shut-off - stringent requirements are placed upon the total shut-off of local phone service.
deionized water is not the same as distilled water - all because you stripped out ions doesn't mean it had no bioload in it. Deionized, distilled water is better yet, and DI/distilled water filtered through a.2 micron filter is even better. This is why some chemistry labs are so anal about water quality - it has to be really clean - no ions, no biomess, nothing... just water.
back in the end of the 90s about using needle-less injectors to deliver microencapsulated drugs throught the skin. A team of us investigated the prospect, as injecting depot systems with needles causes lots of hold-up/loss in the vial and needle - and overfill is moreexpensive than normal. There was a ton of various injection technology back then, and it isn't like these people have stagnated innovation, especially as high-potency drugs are being investigated - so you need very small injection volumes. Insuling injections always seem to be pushing the market, but it is quickly adapted other places in pharma and biotech.
Ohio has been desperate for cash... this being passed is not surprising, considering that they've wanted a piece of the internet commerce pie for several years now. We already have a "volunatary" way to give them sales taxes on items bought on-line that didn't include State of Ohio sales tax (you can imagine how many of us jumped on that and say "Oh, please take our money!!!").
It would not surprise me to see more of this kind of crap passed here. It doesn't help that Taft is a total moron when it comes to handling money.
the reason my cousin gave his old PS1 to my nieces and nephews was that he didn't need it anymore to play his PS1 games once he got his PS2. Several of my friends have their PS2 and play PS1 games on it. I love the backwards compatibility.
What of the possibility to retro-fit fuel cells to existing laptop and palm devices? I would love to get a power source for my Zaurus that has more an ability to last, and not have battery memory / dead battery issues.
he gets hurt, or in a bind, and need to call you in an emergency. Ooops.
What are you going to do for the very many not-routine phone calls that so many of us get? You can't pre-emptively white-list everyone in every situation that might need to get ahold of you. I've had too many calls that in your scenario, would have been blocked.
It sounds wonderful, except that its not practical. You can't know who/what/where is going to need to call you.
it is not so much the matter of ease with which one can rip a song to an MP3, but the thought of giving the band a sense of control by allowing them to offer it upfront. It goes hand-in-hand with "enhanced" features in my mind. I've already got several CDs with QuickTime movies on them - particularly of live CDs (Steve Hackett in Tokyo comes to mind).
Either way, I'd really like to see more bands doing things like this. Sort of a shake-down between those caught up in the IP madness vs. those who are really in it for the music.
but will it spread? That is the question I'd like to see answered, and hopefully in the affirmative. Let's hope that more bands pick up on this and run with it.
With the relatively high demand for portability, I wonder if a band would be willing to pre-RIP their songs into MP3s or AAC or whatever format directly onto their CDs for personal use... just a thought on similar lines.

Darn you, HP Laser Jet! I told you not to do that!
I used to work for a company that used JonesDay. I don't work there anymore. I don't think I got replaced by a turtle, though that would be really bizarre.
well, it makes me want to die now, that's for sure...
I'd really be curious to see exactly when was stated in the notice to make them take the info down. Has there been any talk of it being made public?
I've only seen it stand-alone in the updater, so I was simply able to tell it no. So long as you can tell it no, I don't see what the big deal is.
Careful, the cell companies might sue you for violating their business patents on how to screw customers...
I'm going to release a new player called the Hopi, and follow that up with some various accessories named Dine, Apache, Navajo, and Pueblo.

I can name several very large companies that use Notes exclusively. P&G comes to mind, as one example.

Deleted my computer, all my CD, my records, tapes, 4-track, and guitars, etc...
Hell, I'm having all copyrighted songs removed from my memory this afternoon via lobotomy.
Do not lecture me on intonation. I am merely stating that someone was using this, and was upfront about the machine's use.
