I believe you're forgetting about Mr. Wyden (D-OR).
However, they are both hopelessly outgunned in this quest.

Is this some dialect of BASIC?
I work for a school district in the technology department. We clearly spell out in our usage agreements that everything created on district equipment is for educational purposes only, and not to be sold for profit by either students or staff. Since this guy is using a school camera, I think this might be the policy he's running into.
Perhaps, if it was written down and his parents signed it or there was some valid way for all parties to agree with the rule.
From his Flickr site: "At the end of the [Texas Association of Journalism Educators] class, I approached the teacher confused, and asked that because I was using a school camera, and using a school press pass, do I still own my pictures? She replied that I did."
If he were using his own equipment on his own time, I'd be first in line to tell the school to blow it out his ear. But if he's covering these sporting events as a member of the yearbook staff for the school and he's turning around and selling yearbook pictures privately for his own profit, then no, I don't think he should do that.
Being on the yearbook staff does not preclude him from doing things on his own. It isn't a contractually bound obligation. Unless the press pass bound him contractually (which would be odd for a high school), it's just and ID to let you into places where the public is restricted.
In any event, the principal (at least according to TFA) is being an ass. Instead of sitting him down and discussing this rather complex real world issue, he / she (?) threatens with blackmail and suspensions. Not exactly role model material here.
So, another thread about some random clueless school principal.
Look, the vast majority of us (at least the non-ACs) have already graduated from high school. We know that your average principal has to check the school policy manual to figure out which leg to put in the trouser first. And then they mess it up half the time anyway.
Not much to see here. Some lawyer will be around presently to wack some sense into the the school district.
I suspect that CareFirst puts it's financial bottom line first and everything else a distant 115th.
Alaska law requires it. Presumably Washington state requires it (at least some clerk told me that, I did not bother to look through the statue books).
No, they aren't the same but it points out that you have to give a health care facility quite a bit of information before they let you in the door. Sometimes you can get away without giving them your SSN (as if that would help), other times no.
Some states do put the SSN on the driver's license. One stop shopping!
Oh, and why is it always a 'sophisticated Cyberattack'? That wording is exactly the same as in the letter I recently received outlining the Primera BC/BS data breech" which happened over a year ago. Must be the same nasty cyber criminals. Or maybe the same unpatched SQL injection bug from 2005.
Don't work. In a number of states you HAVE to give the registration desk at the hospital your SSN. Otherwise you are in violation of some idiot state law. Sure, you can get emergency care by forgetting your name and SSN, but try to get some normal health care and yet another obstacle will be tossed in your face.
Federal law now states you have to give the desk a 'government issued ID' for ANY care.
May I see your passport, please?
Plus, if this were to be implemented, how would they handle out-of-state visitors and tourists?
Given that this is Oregon, it would be perfectly in character to have border stations where you have to sit and watch a two hour indoctrination video about the People's Republic of Oregon, get tattooed and chipped and have a transponder attached to your car.
For a small fee, of course.
No, you don't do that. Because if you do, you end if with an endless argument of 'wants' and 'needs'. We don't 'need' florists, so we can tax their truck. We 'need' McDonalds, so we won't tax theirs.
One of the many roads to hell is paved with value judgements.
That is marketing. Very, very good marketing in fact.
It's just an 'armless little bunny.
Why does everything have to do with weed? It could be a pipe, a cigarette, but no it has to resemble a joint. -- Is Slashdot a bunch of potheads?
When you're stoned, you go with the flow. Joints are much easier to model using Blender (or similar programs) than complex structures like pipes and needles. The mockup in TFA is rather eerie - 80 foot high joints balanced over a moody desert scene. You half expect Johnnie Depp to come running on to the stage shooting randomly at non existent bats.
Maybe that will be in the trailer.
"If this is an emergency, hang up and dial 911".
Oh. Wait.
The Tao is like a glob pattern: used but never used up. It is like the extern void: filled with infinite possibilities.
