. To make it viable the province agreed to pay a lot more per kW/h of "green" power. Unfortunately people prefer not to pay $0.80 kW/h for their power, so the province didn't pass those costs along in power bills. Instead of doing that, people pay the cheap fossil fuel price, and the government covers the rest.
huh? Given that Canada is the 2nd largest producer of hydro electric in the world, and 60% of all the power Canada consumes comes from water, why would fossil fuel prices be cheaper? Why would you need a subsidy for "green" power when most of your power is green.
While I've never lived under one, I've been near them. You won't be in the shadow of one for very long. Definitely not hours.
And there are a lot of things that can have distracting/hypnotic effect on drivers. Watching the painted striped line on the road can be very hypnotic.
I doubt if you are paying anyone to take your energy, cause you know, you can just stop producing the energy. But I am pretty sure you are getting paid for it.
It wouldn't hurt for you first to read up all that legalese you agreed to when you first entered into a "business contract" with these guys. I'll bet that they say somewhere in there that they are not liable for any illegal or unauthorized access/control/etc of your domains and property. And by clicking a checkbox at the end of this fifteen million word tome, you agree not to hold them liable.
No matter what the contract says, they are still responsible and can not be negligent. If you can prove that they screwed up and gave someone else access, then they are negligent.
But to answer the OPs original question, it depends. Do you think they will do it again? Then move hosting companies. Do you want them to pay, then sue them (or at least talk to a lawyer)
Autism is a disorder of neural development characterized by impaired social interaction and communication, and by restricted and repetitive behavior.
So is it no wonder if you give a child a device that takes time away from social interaction, impedes communication and tell them to play this game on it where they do the same thing over and over...
. I wrote up the step by step procedure to do it. "Copy the message into the clipboard. Use WinPT to sign the clipboard. Enter a passphrase. Paste the signed message back into the editor. Hit 'send'". We aren't doing it because "it's too hard".
WOW! could you have made it any more difficult. So you gave a step by step procedure. But maybe you could have used some English. clipboard, winpt, passphrase, paste, signed message, editor. A LOT of people don't know what any of these things mean, and you didn't do a very good job spelling them out.
But why did it have to be that complicated?
Or if Roger is a bright kid and he tells the teacher that his parent's email address is a gmail address he controls?
I don't have any children, but a friend of mine just started the process of enrolling his child in school. He said the amount of paper work was crazy. But I am guessing somewhere in that paperwork you have a "email contact." Since the parent is at the school filling the paperwork out there is no opportunity for Roger to use his own address.
But really is it that much different than Roger signing the piece of paper he was given?
The industry shouldn't exist today period. There is no 'killing', it is dead, and the music executives are corpse camping.
Why do we make art? It's not for money.
So only independent people should make music? All music must be distributed by the band itself? A lot of people make art so they can make money for food and shelter. Those people don't necessarily have the desire, time, or knowledge to also market and distribute their art. And that is where this "industry that shouldn't exist" comes into play.
Because it isn't about religion. It is about control, and those in charge use religion to control people. If they didn't use religion, they'd use something else.
It isn't about religion. If there was less religion it would be something else. Maybe the dictators image. It is about control, control over the population.
Having said that, apparently the owner of the boat no longer wants it back, so the question of ownership is up in the air.
I believe you just laid out the rules of ownership. The owner still owns it. Whoever salvages has a maritime lien, and apparently the owner has already said he won't pay it.
But the idea that what she wears makes her fair game for the attentions of every guy who sees her is bullshit.
So guys should just ignore ALL girls? Huh? So how is anyone ever supposed to meet? Are you supposed to pretend no one exists, until you are introduced?
Our society is truly fucked up if you can't send a stranger a text message without being labeled a creep.
Well, that's one opinion. Do you think this would be somehow different than knocking on a strangers door to ask if she'd like to go out with you?
It would be more like going up to a strange girl in the coffee shop/laundrymat/grocery store/library/street and talking to her.
While you may not use facebook to meet girls/guys a LOT of people(errr kids) do. Facebook is a way to meet people.
I'm sure they though it would be cool to show you if there were any hot girls in the club, before you paid to go. Or which of the 8 starbucks in the vicinity had hot girls.
But as far as "someone could use this for some pretty bad purposes" well people can already use the current technology for some pretty bad purposes. This app just made it easier.
Flown lately? It sucks. It sucks so much that if you manage to get from one place to another without a *major* fiasco, you keep your mouth shut.
Yes I've flown lately. I'm not quite a frequent flyer, but I do fly a lot. It doesn't suck. With a couple of exceptions almost EVERY delay I've had in the past few years has been due to weather. I did have a big issue on a small airline overseas. It had one flight a day, and apparently their plane had major mechanical issues. It was only after I told them I'd fly another airline, that they told me their plane could be out of commission for days.
But I've rarely had a minor fiasco, let alone a major one.
Of course I am talking about the airlines and the flights. Not the stupid security theatre.
Perhaps he just read that the US Supreme court just ruled that you can be strip searched for ANY arrest.
I realize no one reads TFA. But you should if you are going to provide a link. This isn't about ANY arrest, it is about taking people to jail. I'm not saying I agree with the decision. But not everyone who is arrested is taken to jail.
But, aren't there other ways around this? If your Facebook is sufficiently secured, how would an employer even know you use Facebook unless you are honest/foolish enough to tell them you use it?
Because one of the people you friended tells the employer. As what happened in this case.
That's OK. I am sure you will come up with some pro-corporate excuse why the desires of CBS should override the guy who wrote it in the first place
Sure.
Let us say you are an author. Happily writing stories and giving them away (presumably you are living on mana from heaven). I come along and say "Please write me a story about X. I'll pay you so you can eat something better than mana."You say great, and write a fabulous story about X, a story you wouldn't have otherwise written. You give me the story, I decide I don't like it and sit on it. The original author like it, but he took his money for it. But the real issue is he never would have told the story in the first place.
Life isn't always as black and white as some people like to think it is.
Of course that doesn't mean our current copyright situation is sane.
We need to get away from the idea that you can just sit on something (anything, really) and take it out of usefulness to society for a worthless end result (nothing ends up being done with it, the item doesn't get better, and it doesn't gain value).
Just because you can doesn't make it moral.
So if I have a creative idea, it is immoral for me not to write it down?
Well I guess this is as relevant to Canada since they don't have a dollar bill. But for all the talk of "it costs more than one cent to make a cent" it is more cost effective to make 100 pennies than to make a one dollar bill. The life of a penny is decades. The life of a dollar bill is something like a year.
The TSA guy said that by preventing terrorists from using complicated liquid explosives,
Instead the "terrorists" dump their explosives in the garbage can next to the security line.
You either treat that bottle of water as a bomb, and dispose of it properly. Or you let me take it on the plane.

Shouldn't that be.,. The googles! They do everything!
Those Ontario farmers are nuts. How else can you add $2-3,000 dollars/mo. to your income
I think that is part of the problem. Some people elected NOT to host any windmills, and thus the Joneses are making more money than they are.
