How do you inspect encrypted data?
"All laws should have an expiration date."
I would add that the states should be able to override any federal law if 51% of the states voted to do so. It would be as if the law never passed.

Reason 617 not to have a Facebook account.
This will do wonders for the home-schoolers and allow kids to have flexible school hours. You could also have all of the students in one big location and only the teachers move as students need them, except for situations that require specialized locations. ie gym, band, art, lunch.
Why aren't hospitals and doctors REQUIRED to post prices?
Verisign is the registrar for all .tv and .cc domains.
Not just .com. US law applies to any TLD managed by a US registrar. An example is .tv which is managed by Verisign.
There's a number of little things that would make lobbying less effective.
- Move legislators back to their home district
- Term limits
- Permit them to only accept contributions from registered voters in their district
- repeal the 17th amendment
And up is down and black is white. The MPAA and RIAA are the poster children for maintaining the status quo. They have no need to innovate as long as they can continue to line the pockets of corrupt politicians.
"having revealing pictures and even stats (measurements) of the women is pretty much the definition of objectification."
So what? I don't recall reading anything that indicates these women were forced to do anything against their will.
This can be fixed in at least 2 simple ways.
1. Don't tax the essentials. Milk, fruits, vegetables, lean meats, non-luxury cloths. Don't tax the first $50 of a pair of shoes. Don't tax the first $15k of a car.
2. Determine the average monthly sales tax paid for by a person at the poverty line. Have the government send a monthly check for that amount, minus 10%, to every citizen. Everyone should pay some tax.
The best icon is a word. There's no interpretation necessary between picture and purpose. This new version looks like something from Microsoft ... change for the sake of change.
I would like to know what videos were requested be removed.
Then they will arrest you for interfering with a law enforcement officer. Not that it will stick, but by the time you get it cleared up you are $100k in the hole from legal expenses and a message has been sent to anyone else thinking of doing the same.
#9 says "Read the privacy statements on the websites you visit, and only do business with ones whose practices you agree with."
This statement is incredibly naive. Websites can change their privacy statements daily or they may not adhere to their own privacy statement.

"There were nearly 6,420,000 auto accidents in the United States in 2005."
Can we stop calling all motor vehicle crashes accidents. If the driver was drunk or purposely distracted it is NO more an accident than if I was randomly firing a gun hoping no one got hit.
Either the Constitution gets enforced or not. If the Constitution is to be enforced then the Supremacy Clause AND the 4th amendment need to adhered to. That means warrants for all searches.
Old news.
The court ruled based upon the laws that Congress passed. I agree that the law needs to be changed, but that change must come from Congress. When judges overrule Congress it better only be because Congress violated the Constitution, otherwise you have judicial activism.
I would be afraid that in a dispute Google could do a PayPal and lock you out of your data. I would also be concerned that Google would provide law enforcement access to your data without your knowledge, consent or a warrant.
Android: The EverNote installer says the app requires access to certain areas of the device. - Hardware Controls - Network Communications - Your Location - Your personal Information - Storage - Phone Calls - System Tools
This is absurd. I passed.
The media also owes an apology to Richard Jewel and the Duke lacrosse team.
Ranks right up there with zero-point-energy on the believability scale.
It would be nice if the states were permitted to run their states as if countries, without the incessant interference of the federal government.
Maybe they should fix their pension plans first: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142405274870331540457525...
