When I read this it made me very happy to live in Texas, the TSA's power has been greatly decreased here and this is why http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2011/06/28/137474796/texas-legislature-approves-anti-pat-down-bill

I completely dislike SPF... I had to enable them when completely legitimate emails, from the company I work for, were blocked by SPAM Haus. The emails we were attempting to send were ALL properly solicited emails to customers that were using Yahoo and MSN / hotmail / live accounts. These email / webmail providers chose to use SPAM Haus Spam filtering and would bounce every email back. It took me almost 25 Hours to identify the problem and present a solution to my boss, who had to approve the change before I could add it to our mail servers. Also, I have to say that Microsoft surprisingly was very helpful and was able to assist me in identifying the problem ( well, after I was placed on hold for 3 of the 25 hours ) . So long story short I was quite mad about having a boss breathing down my neck to fix our mail systems while I was on a much earned and deserved vacation, since then SPF is still the bane of my existence and I would never have chosen to use it if I hadn't be made to.

it's available on the mac look at iPhoto in iLife 09.

The system you are referring to is and AVL and they do precisely what you describe, the advantage of what the article is describing is more along the lines of know exactly where the officer is not the squad car. Where this is important is if the officer is down, or is in a fight for his life, it allows other officers to know his location and assist him in every way possible. Dallas Police is currently implementing a similar system into the radios with a red panic button, so the officer doesn't have to say anything just hit the button and you'll almost instantly hear sirens blazing for their location.

You know my whole life my parents have always used the phrase " where do we look to find the body?" anytime I went out with friends. It is a simple statement but makes a huge impact on a teenager that is going out and always made me think about what I was doing and if one of my friends or I could get seriously hurt. It made me think... and it kept me out of a lot of trouble. My parents were always strict, always wondering where I was, what I was doing, I even tried to resist getting a cellphone. Simply put I didn't want my parents constantly in my life. Now I look back and thank them every chance I get, they are the reason that I'm not dead or not in jail, the reason that I never wanted to take drugs and why I always strive to be the best I can be for myself and others. They also gave me the strength to do what I KNOW is right, and they trust me to make the best decision in a group of difficult choices, THEY my PARENTS gave me the ability to choose and learn, and all because my parents made a choice to be in my life and to always be there for me.

Now to put this in perspective with the current argument. PARENTS not the GOVERNMENT should decide what is acceptable, the right of censorship is the PARENTS and ONLY the PARENTS decision. I'm not a parent but I had the 2 best parents, and I love them to death, and I know that I have a solid base so when I do have children that I will have the ability to point them in the correct direction. So the real question is where are the parents, what are the parents doing and why are kids getting their hands on material like GTA, its not the governments prerogative to keep the games and other content out of minors hands it's also not the job of the development studio that creates the game. Its the parents job to censor inappropriate materials from their kids, to force themselves into their child's life and be there before trouble starts.

BTW, since I always seem to get modded down for my responses on here please do so but at least admit my reasoning is solid. And yes I do know this won't stop someone from modding me down, just think.

How about the vista "kool-aide" without the bloating? I think I might go for that one.

You know, they need to rename the title of that show to "Americas most funniest shots to the Nuts" However, It could be a mouth full to say, and might give the

too many ideas. btw I have a wierd sensation that this will get modded down so go ahead make my day.

Well we know that Bond, James Bond will be from one of those 40 countries and doesn't really have to change anything but that 'ID' to change the country he's from, because we all know his appearance as 007 only changes about every 10 years.

Finally I won't be the first one asleep in those endless hours of playing.... w00t! And to really think of it why am I awake at 5:30 in the morning??? I should have been to sleep hours ago.
