I froze spending on a lot of things, made relatively minor cuts to others and actually raised worthy stuff like veterans' benefits and clean energy research.
Increased taxes moderately on those making $100,000-$1,000,000, but went whole hog on those making $1,000,000+. Returned the estate tax to 2001 levels (but wished I had the option to go a lot higher than that). Did not add a VAT tax.
I did not lower defense spending as much as some of you. I went from $600b down to $400b.
Removed the contribution limit on SS, but did not change benefits.
All in all, my cutting was pretty damn conservative compared to what the tea stainers are screaming about. And I still came out with this:

RELAX dude!
Not everyone get one for free! It's only in US!
I can only get a discount on the old model! And no discount at all for the new.
Glad someone else said this!
I'm confused though. I was told on the phone the old nano would cost me �155. Take off the �100 rebate and it would cost me �55. Went and bought my 24" iMac online and took the iPod offer and it cost �129. So i am hoping the rebate is still �100 and it will only end up costing me �29 :D

How could Wal Mart feel threatened by anything.
They are more powerful than most countries.
the ITMS has been kickin in full swing for years now, and Wal Mart still leads in CD sales, and music distribution by a long shot.
I hope this goes really public and gets exposed through the media, so everyone knows what WM is trying to do.
I would have loved to hear the phone call between Jobs and Lee.

Yeah they will. iTunes works on any Windows or Mac system. They can listen to it on their computer, burn a CD, or even rip that CD back into a format that any player can play, with a minimal quality loss. Besides, anything that discourages consumers from buying a Zune is probably good for consumers :) .
I think the main thing that discourages people from buying a ZUNE is the Zune...
anyway if this Beatles thing works with Apple, it will most likely be a limited time excklusivity 6 months to one year tops and then open to other online sellers.

I don't mind Radio Shack for random overpriced cables in an emergency, but I would never buy anything else in there. The salespeople are just far too pushy and circle around you like vultures attracted to a rotting carcass.

You're much better off to take one of your earbuds out and put it in her ear
Before getting slapped... I guess if youre a billionaire you can shove earbuds into a strangers ear, but here in Real World USA the results would not be pretty. Do that with your girlfriend, I dont think ANYONE would want a stranger theyve known for 1 minute coming up to them and putting crap into their ear.

You really think less than 50% of gun violence is committed by black men in those countries? You might want to go look at the demographics of those countries.
Why does gun violence effect the black communities? Prejudice, poverty and lack of access to societal goods others have among many other reasons.
.
London: Over half of gun crimes committed by black men, only 12% of the population
and you might want to read the title of the thread perhaps?
I guess Americans are more obsessed with race than Europeans....

yes, apple will be shooting themselves in the foot if they don't have that issue resolved in the second generation model.
does anyone know how many hrs it is until we should "expect" the announcement assuming it is going to be released within the next day.
Haha! First there would be a mass resigning. They would just all quit Apple and leave an empty building behind. Then they would sadly shoot themselves in the foot at the parking lot. That's how it would happen.
I can't wait! L�sen Die MackBuch bitte!

Uh, yes really. I deal with manufacturers professionally. Unless something is labor intensive and low value added (like clothing,) the only reason to manufacture in China is for the currency exchange rates and lax environmental laws.
Why do you think Haier, a Chinese company, is profitably manufacturing in South Carolina?
It looks pretty labour intensive to me...

actually NATO doesn't come into play ... or do you see any german troops ? ;) ...
Good point. The involvement of Britain and France would seem enough, I guess, but you're correct, it's not a NATO operation.
... Just think about it: Sarkozy got funding for his last campaign illegally from libya. Can there be a more convinient way of getting away from that dirty laundry than bombing them into oblivion ? While at home showing how much of a strong leader he is for increasing popularity ?
Anne Applebaum made a similar argument in Slate just a few days ago, arguing that France, really Sarkozy, was pushing for the intervention in kind of 'wag the dog' scenario.

The later option involves an ugly screw in the middle of your macbook.
I just had my heatsink replaced last weekend, and I just now noticed the screw. Oh well...:cool:

Here's a question to ponder...How are people suppose to install this firmware if there macbooks keep shutting down?
Anyways, I reccomend people use this firmware instead of geting their heatsink replaced. The later option involves an ugly screw in the middle of your macbook.
At the next RSD, press the power button and don't let go until you hear a musical sound (maybe holding the button 4-5 second). Then when it reboots, it'll force the CUP to operate at 1GHz. And you won't get the shut down problem. This would probably be the best condition under which to do this firmware update. Good luck!

I don't think either of those albums exhibit that -- the first four British albums in stereo do, but they've never been available on CD in stereo, just mono. Rubber Soul has a few songs that don't work well in headphones (eg Girl) but Revolver is mixed well!
My point is, the ping-pong effect, when it was used, was deliberate. It does sound strange now, but I remember when these albums came out people listened to them on headphones and thought the effect was cool.
I'm no Beatles historian by any means, but correct me if I'm wrong: weren't the first albums recorded in mono? The stereo versions were later, rather crude simulations of stereo, which is why they never made it to CD.

Here's mine for the day, part of a series I just started yesterday. I'm photographing Starbucks cups that are used and naming the photos by the name of the person's cup. Let me know what you guys think, I'll post more throughout the days.
