Indeed.
I noticed that there's an 11 MB pdf "Corporate brochure" at the website of the company initiating this lawsuit. Very amateurish, but does list immigration sponsorships as a company benefit: http://www.apextgi.com/
And many DVD players are DVD-A players.
And most big music releases are available on one of the two formats. Why anyone still buys CDs, I'm unable to fathom.
I believe you are confusing the TSA with the Department of Homeland Security. The TSA is a very small part of DHS. So is the US Secret Service, the US Coast Guard, FEMA, and the Federal Protective Service. Our Customs and Immigration agencies are now split between Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), both of which are just parts of DHS.
So, the DHS is tasked with all aspects of defending our borders (with the obvious and notable exception of military defense).
Hmmm... That's not what this pretty graph on the CDC website says: http://www.cdc.gov/H1N1flu/surveillanceqa.htm#7
"This epidemiological data supports laboratory serology studies that indicate that older people may have pre-existing immunity to the novel H1N1 flu virus. This age distribution is very different from what is normally seen for seasonal flu, where older people are more heavily impacted."
First, StarTrek.com was never a major site. Second, you're ignoring the very nature of the internet. It was designed to be an indestructible communications network and it seems to have succeeded.
Lastly, if you could magically snap your fingers and make StarTrek.com, all the blogs in the world, and YouTube.com all disappear in an instant, you still wouldn't have killed a tenth of the internet. And the following day, new blogs would be back anyway, just as another video site would step up and take the place of YouTube.
My main machine is running WinXP and I only reboot when I do a Windows Update that requires it, so that's every few months or so... I, like you, wonder why people are rebooting so often. If I had to reboot once a week, I'd be upset that my machine takes 30 seconds to boot, too!
I find most vocal gun rights advocates leave out the "well regulated militia" clause if the second amendment. I've always been amazed at how poorly that amendment parses. My reading is the same as yours - citizens may have firearms so that they mey function as part of an organized "militia," or protective group.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
Darn that pesky comma after the word "State". Grammar actually mattered when our Bill Of Rights was written, though, so that comma is important. The Second Amendment says that disciplined militias are important to a nation's security, and, thus, the United States shall not infringe upon the right of the people to keep and bear arms.
It's quite clear if you don't ignore that comma.
Single men under thirty don't count as adults. I don't know one man who wants to come home from work and play adolescent games where you shoot other people.
What an absurd statement. I happen to play PC games of exactly that genre (FPS games) at an online community that caters specifically to mature gamers like you describe. The thousands of members of TacticalGamer would certainly disagree with you.
I assure you, there is no national law that requires law enforcement officers to provide their names or badge numbers to anyone that asks. There might be a state or two that has such a law, and there certainly are many agencies that have such a policy, but no national law.
I think you mis read his statement. he said the cop has to give out his badge number, he did not say he is supposed to stop detaining someone in the process.
a cop does have to prove he is a police officer.
No, you're wrong. A cop does NOT have to give his badge number out to anyone that asks. He has to identify himself as a law enforcement officer, but that's it. When charging somebody with a crime, he must attest to the charges personally. Imagine the success of undercover investigations across the country if the bad guys could just ask every suspicious buyer/dealer for their badge number...
Add in more than one witness being threatened by the cops for filming and or asking their badge number (which by law every cop in the entire country MUST do regardless of who they are and whatever the officers claim)
What an absurd statement. There is no law that says a cop has to stop what he's doing to give out his badge number.

These scientists are encountering the rough and tumble world of popular journalism, spin meistering. They are clueless about how to handle it.
BS. The science should speak for itself. Facts, real facts, don't have to be "spun" the right way...
Could you tell us more about this Noah's Ark that exists in smoke? As someone that recently quit smoking, I'm very curious about this. Thanks!

$500 to pump some liquid from one holding tank to another? I don't think so.
Gives new meaning to saying that your girlfriend is a fox!
Actually, it behooves you to learn what 'behooves' means, so you don't look ignorant.

A last gasp attempt to clear stock on a brand new product? That doesn't make sense, now, does it? Oh, and I didn't see if it was posted yet, but here's a link to the WalMart holiday promo for today: http://holiday.ri-walmart.com/?section=secret&utm_source=Walmartcom&utm_medium=POV1&utm_content=secret1&utm_campaign=holiday&povid=cat14503-env15844-module117144-lLink1
No, they'd just have to call the police!
Would somebody please inform all the illegal aliens that the American Dream has gone old and moldy?
You're absolutely right. Society is making children's play so safe that many of life's lessons simply aren't being learned. It's a shame, really.

Seriously, comparing a fry cook's job to a cop's job is just silly.
