It's a destructive scanner which isn't entirely a bad thing if it permits a far more accurate scan.
If someone is a courier taking a locked object from point A to point B then having the key with courier isn't a good idea. Transporting the key independent of the goods help prevent people from getting access. This would just be a another method of transporting a key from point A to point B.
I can't find a citation but I seem to recall that most of these organizations seeking tax-exempt status eventually got their 501(c)(4) status.
They did but it's not relevant to the controvery because the timing is the issue. Had the organizations not been targeted they would have received the status sooner. Now, whether you agree or disagree about whether running ads about various civic issues in a leadup to an election in which they matter should or should not qualify for tax-exempt status it is hard to argue against the fact that the targeting prevented these organizations from engaging in the election in any way shape or form. To suggest that they still got the status and so everything is alright is to pretty much deny the elephant in the room when it comes to suppressing expression.
The black version, of course, cost an extra $200 for the coolness factor. Considering that my MacBook lasted for eight years, it was a worthwhile investment.
Did you just claim that paying $200 more for a coolness factor was a worthwhile investment?
EXACTLY. As long as the tax code is ridiculously complicated, we're going to need ridiculously complicated bureaucracy and IT systems to manage and enforce that complexity. Let's see how well our new GOP overlords in Congress manage to legislate an actual reduction in tax code complexity, now that they have the gavel all to themselves in both the house and the senate.
It will be nice to see Obama have to veto bills instead of being able to rely on Harry Reid stopping them.

The narrow range for that fragment is 117 to 138 CE although it could be from prior to 100 CE or after 150 CE. Jesus's death was between 30 - 36 CE is the generally accepted range for the death. Within a 100 years of the event is not an unreasonable statement to make when it comes to the Gospels.
Why did you have to remind me of that film?
That is brilliant.
People who are homeless are most often unable to acquire and maintain regular, safe, secure, and adequate housing/
The housing for dwarfs in dwarf fortress typically fails on the safe and secure parts. So they're pretty much a bunch of squatters.
This technology, in law enforcement hands, is going to be more useful in hostage situations and will probably be mostly deployed to police sharpshooters. This would allow them to fire on a suspect that they wouldn't normally fire on due to a risk of harming a bystander or hostage. It would also be helpful to police sharpshooters that are stationed on helicopters in order to account for the motion of the helicopter on a shot.

Bay of Pigs was a badly planned operation. It should have been placed in the DoD's hands. They underestimate or ignored the popular support Castro held while hinging the success on an uprising by Cubans on the island. Another significant factor in the failure of Bay of Pigs was the state department's insistence that no American personnel or ships be used in the operation so as to avoid linking the US to it, which was hilariously shortsighted as anyone with a brain would have known it was instigated by the US. Thus why it should have been in DoD hands.
If you're posting speed cams in a place where a single 88mph vehicle elevates the average from 40mph to 55mph then you're an idiot.
