Sorry, Stupid seems more like Black Holes rather than anything based on the speed of light. With stupid, you send information in, and nothing much of value escapes; a black hole.

Indeed, why do you need an APP for this. My ROM (CM 10.2) has a "torch" function built in. Why would you need an app for it?

This is not an Android problem this is a problem with crappy carrier priorities. Must bundle crap nobody wants, and not include the obvious highly requested features.

This is just the beginning of the end for the corporate music industry. This has been going since the Napster days, and is just jumping from format to format. There is no profit left in corporate music (Labels). The number of good music acts is increasing as the wealth that was centralized by Labels becomes decentralized. Will there still be megabands and huge starts? Of course. However, the number of quality musical artists, who are able to reach a much wider audience, will spread out the available dollars to a broader selection of talent.

The real money will be made playing music live for fans to enjoy. Here's to hoping for the death of the "boy bands" and talentless whores who take off their clothes and call it a musical act.

Obviously you've never spent time with a pregnant woman who knows there is another "being" inside her, separate and distinct from her.

And my arms and legs are not harmed by drinking alcohol till I am in drunken stupor, something that would harm the "baby", which is why we have all sorts of warning labels on things saying "do not take while pregnant". You're the one playing games trying to dehumanize a being.

You do realize that a woman's right to choose, in most cases of abortion, were when she took off her clothes and had sex. Let's not talk about the exception (rape) yet, because that is a red herring and a dodge of the real issue. YOU say, you want a woman to have the right to control her body, and I am 100% in favor of a woman controlling her body. I only wish she would. Because what we are talking about here, is a woman NOT controlling her body and then expecting to kill another being while calling it "choice".

The next bit, is touchy because it requires logic that most "choice" people don't use, because it is painful to realize you've killed a human. This bit is called "dehumanization", which is what the "choice" advocates call the living being inside. They use terms like "fetus", "fetal tissue", "blob". Once you dehumanize someone, you're no better than those that dehumanize Jews (pigs), Blacks (monkeys) and so on. Then you make them your enemy (loss of freedom) and then you can kill them without conscience.

Lastly, as a Libertarian that has this argument with other (pro abortion) libertarians, my biggest point is, the REAL role of government is to protect the rights of those that cannot protect themselves. The purpose of strength is not to abuse the weak, but to use it for protecting the weak from those that would use their abilities to harm others. IF we, as a people, stop protecting those that have no ability to protect themselves, we have lessened ourselves as humans. I will always side on the defense of the defenseless unborn child, because that is what defines me as a human.

Those that use "choice" to kill the unborn, have defined already that they are willing to kill for convenience (birth control). And that is inhuman.

No, it is a police state, where the police shut down a MAJOR US City to look for one guy. Remember, they were going house to house looking (missing him completely) with full on riot gear, semi-automatic rifles, and tanks with guns mounted on the roof. LOOKING for one guy. If this is not what a police state is, I don't know what is. They don't flaunt this level of force as long as we are good little children and mind what they tell us to do. But they have it, just in case we don't.

That is threat enough for your average girlie-man to stay cowering in compliance.

Obama is wholly incompetent, worse than Bush was. Remember, Bush came across as stupid, but was in fact evil genius. Obama comes off as genius but has proven himself completely incompetent.

The problem is, any significant level of incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.

I don't view Obama as evil like I do Bush, I just find he is completely incapable of paying attention to what really matters. Here is a perfectly good example: He has spend more time dedicated to picking Basketball Brackets than he has spent with Sebelius while she was rolling out ObamaCare (ACA), which is his signature "legacy". He doesn't give a shit about the ACA, and that is borne out in his actions. And his words mean absolutely nothing, because he doesn't know anything, yet talks with authority, which comes across as "lies". There is a reason the right thinks he "lies", because he is incompetent and it is hard to tell the difference.

You mean, all those "I vote present" votes? Those votes alone should have been enough to disqualify him from consideration IMHO. Anyone not willing to take a stand to gain additional power is evil. Period.

Necromonger! Gross!

My Mother is dead, you insensitive clod!

Yeah, but this is the same Jesus that made a Scourge (whip with metal bits at the ends) and forcibly evicted money changers in the Temple. He wasn't opposed to violence, he was opposed to revenge violence. Specifically, there is a strong opinion that this has more to do with being a Servant (to G-D) than anything, for a bondservant has no right to revenge, only his master has that right. By giving up that right, you declare yourself the proper bondservant Jesus wanted. This would mean the person "turning the other cheek" was casting a much harsher punishment (hell) on those that perpetrated it, while also allowing for the redemption of the criminal should they repent of their sins.

Lastly, the eye for eye, tooth for tooth, was about equity of outcome (in the Old Testament). A person harmed by a criminal act, had the right to equity of results upon the perpetrator. This means, that the perpetrator would have to live under the same conditions, for the rest of his life, that he cause upon another. This same provisions also require full restitution for the harm caused (money).

In truth, it isn't as barbaric as it seems at first glance. And from their (ancient) perspective, our current judicial system seems completely useless, providing little or no justice to victims.

Caught, yes.

Punished, yes.

Death, if warranted, yes. The problem is that our judicial system is flawed, and thus we are often not 100% sure it is warranted. WHICH is why I support the concept of the Death Penalty, while opposing it 100% in practice. We (mankind) can rationalize doing all sorts of evil, in the name of good.

It isn't hate. There is an equally rational side that suggest that painful death as a consequence/punishment of violent crime DOES have a deterrent effect, even if minor. Anyone that commits violent acts, does not deserve the continuing protection from society. However, we, as society, recognize that our judicial system is flawed even at its best and thus, try every means possible to keep people alive, even when it is clear that they have no benefit to our society. And that is also completely rational.

However, when nature takes over, I have NO sympathies for those about to die a slow painful death. My sympathies are to their families to the extent that they lost a "loved one". Love, is also not rational, which is why people can love and care for people who are so depraved they deserve no such devotion.

Rough men do those things, at the politician's request. The Army just doesn't invade a country, it does so at the request of people YOU help elected (whether you voted for them or not, I'm speaking collectively)(assuming you live in a democratic society of some sort).

In short, YOU (we, us) are the problem, not the soldiers we send on our behalf. Wanna change which wars we fight, change who you vote for, AND Politic for more people like you voting for your kind of liars to represent you better.

Short of changing who you vote for, and getting others to vote similarly, you're representatives are doing what most people "want" (ostensibly). So, yes, they are doing exactly what you're unwilling to do, because you/we/us have told them to do exactly that.

Unfortunately, not enough people support people on the libertarian side of things to really change the outcome. People on the left choose war monger Feinstein and from the right, war monger McCain the same, not because they are war mongers but rather because of other less important issues like "abortion right" or "fiscal conservative". War mongering is just a nasty side effect.

We need to strip government of unneeded power and put ourselves back into proper Constitutional governance. The problem is, progressives need the power of the Police State to enforce their progressive policies. But they are the first ones that complain about the police state.

He has some understanding, someone was stealing power from the school. He doesn't need to know how much.

Imagine if everytime you went to the store, you took a nickel out of the till. Now imagine everyone doing the same thing. No one person is "stealing that much" but in aggregate, they are stealing the store into bankruptcy.

In short, STEALING is a crime, because it wrong, no matter how little you "steal".
