Someone really needs to figure out a way to get IE7/IE8 running under WINE. The only thing I still use IE6 for is for applications that are IE only when I'm on my Mac or Linux system.
One of three things:
1. You are in an area with only one provider and therefore they are at the mercy of the PUC.
2. You are under contract and better prepare for it to end.
3. You are mistaken and need to check your bill.:)
Gotta love it in TX when you get a bill at $.25/kwH suddenly when the previous month was $.17 and the month before that $.13. Deregulation in TX has hurt the consumer as much as helped it. At least when regulated the process of raising prices too months of approval and the State board limited how much they were allowed to increase prices. Going from a $300 bill to $600 bill in one month mostly due to a rate change is insane.
That said, This transmission line project should be financed by the providers installing the wind farm. Why should every person in TX have a net increase of $8/mo to pay for something they don't use?
Quietly as in Apple rarely even gives the bugs/issues they fix a single line in the release notes, much less a KB Article explaining the bug. In supporting OSX I've recently spend months fighting AD Authentication issues only to have the issue suddenly fixed in 10.5.3 with no acknowledgment from Apple there was ever even a problem.
Yes.. Everyone is saying practically the same thing here, but I've ordered items from the browser on my cell phone at Best Buy and Circuit City while standing at the Customer Service counter because the idiot managers refused to order their online prices... Minutes later my order was pulled and I got, imagine this, notification on my phone via email that my order was ready. Highly innovative there Apple.
More importantly, A fire safe is designed to protect paper... not media. A hard drive would have to be sent for data recovery in even a short fire inside of a standard fire safe. They are designed to keep paper below the flashpoint. Have you ever seen what paper looks like when it comes out of one?
In 15 years I've never owned a vehicle capable of achieving the rated mileage. Now, its the other way around. I have a Camry Hybrid and I've yet to pull of a tank with anything less than 35-36 MPG. I even averaged 38 MPG on a tank. Don't write off hybrids completely. Just as with everything else there is a ton of FUD. The Camry hybrid costs less than the v6 version of the XLE. Everyone who attacks the Camry hybrid likes to compare it to an LE or CE which is not even a comparable car. Compared to a 4 cylinder XLE its about a $1000 premium for the hybrid, and at 25,000-30,000 miles per year I expect a full return on my investment.
Intended to protect American citizens? Bullshit. Its intended to increase the powers of the government, its precisely *against* the founding principles of the US.
Everything our government does today is a bastardization of the government our founding fathers created. The roles defined in the constitution are the only ones that our federal government was intended to fill. Any further rights were to be handled through amendments approved by the states, where the real government power was intended to be.
Liberals (a.k.a. Federalist) believed in a strong federal government while Republicans believed in the true constitutional government in which the Federal government was always trumped by state and individual rights. Unfortunately the Federalists managed to get their way and the Federal government became extremely powerful taking away most of the rights of the states and individuals. Somewhere along the way the Republicans seemed to have accepted this and have begun a crusade to take away further rights. This is sad since a Republican in the true sense of the word would be more about protecting us from the federal government than a Federalist would be.
Every administration (Republican and Democrat) for over a hundred years has violated our core rights, and the law, in order to protect us. I don't see an end to this cycle, and the courts are typically not standing up for us. To see a federal judge slap the government in the few cases like this where it does happen are the silver lining that we should see more often. Unfortunately this is the exception and not the rule.

No, but they are the primary country with a stable of ancient F14's and an embargo preventing them from getting parts for them.
