when I worked for a large computer company I used to go into the offices (and the warehouse floors) of several B&J places in the north east. They allow pets, and kids (one place had a playground inside) and every friday they had some ethnic food place catering for lunch free to employees and contractors (I got invited a few times). Even when something bad happened in the company, even layoffs, people seemed happy to be working there. Those who got laid off got to come in on Fridays for the lunch until they were off unemployment (assuming they had gotten a job)
Re: Football (NFL as depicted) *IS* sheltered from competition.
You are right, Randy Moss blocking for Wes Welker is not in the same competition as lets say, Modonna's "Like a Prayer" however let me give you an example that better explains what you are saying.
I have this apple here. It look like, tastes like, smells like and orange, even comes from an orange tree, but its an apple for the sake of this example. And here is an Apple. It looks like an apple, it tastes like and apple, it even grows on an apple tree. in no way is it different than the other apple I was talking about before. Right?
See what I did there? you can't compare innovation in the world of fishing with innovation in the world of music. They are not in the same competition. So why is it you feel you need to compare the innovation inside the NFL to innovation outside the NFL? Anything NOT inside the NFL is in its own sheltered area away from other areas. Innovation in cars wont matter to an Amish family, an innovation in their process in building a barn might, but that barn building innovation wont have any sway on the automobile industry.
Actually, where is the proof that, if this person couldn't have downloaded said film, they would have bought it. I have downloaded many many files. if I like d them enough to put them in any of my play lists or a movie I liked I went and bought the item. most people will. I honestly don't like paying $14 to see a movie that sounded good just for it to be a horrid horrid film not worth sitting in the theater for. To me, that is hollywood stealing *my* money. So should there be class action law suits against hollywood to get our money back for "Daybreakers"? If so which do you think Hollywood would rather do? pay billions in settlements for the last 50 or so years or change their way of doing business?
i agree whole heartedly. Who knows maybe money will be pumped into this and more jobs are created. hell, I will goto Mars to install a network...no problem...though playing WoW from there...the latency would be horrendous.
I blame Jon Conner. If not for him the bots wouldn't have come back in time at all, giving those people the ability to reverse engineer the arm and chip.
I would go one step further and say its the majority that intimidate the minority from doing what is right. I know many good cops (I used to work with law enforcement people) and they didn't stand up directly because of fear of losing the job they needed and harassment from the other officers. many would "leak" stuff to the press and investigations would go off.
On the flip side I know just as many A--hole cops that power trip and pull people over for BS reason and harass people just because they are different. its human nature.
Have you heard they use windows in most agencies? Worse yet many still use windows 95/98/ME(gag)/and 200 which, BTW none are supported anymore?
The point is, the CIA buying something buggy is nothing new.
Actually...if you state before that down payment that you will not agree to any resale fees, then at closing, they pop up, the builder has to refund your deposit and eat the cost of the house himself as you stated beforehand there would be no resale fees.
I was actually thinking something like this. They are either seeing pictures and posts pre-injury or edited to keep family members from worrying. I do that myself. Also, I would think they could find this information out simply by having someone watch her. I know when my dad became permanently disabled they had people following him around for 2 years trying to prove that he was uninjured. the only bit of evidence they got on him was a picture of him lifting a large box into our van. (the box was filled with Styrofoam peanuts and the judge threw the evidence out). Just weird I guess.
reread please...Harper didn't appeal after getting the ruling of 200/song, the record labels did.
"Harper made the case that she was unaware that sharing music via Limewire was unauthorized, as it seemed just like an online radio to her. While the district court sided with Harper in saying that it was innocent infringement, the record labels appealed and the appeals court reversed, "
how much does it cost? maybe we can take up a collection and we can all go into "business". We can sue RIAA and MPAA and all these other idiots...then we will have money to expand ourselves into make stupid patents as a business model...BRILLIANT!
