Digg it UP - Warning: Your Bumper Sticker Might Be Illegal
What is a Floppy Disk?It is a form of storage medium for a computer. Computer user may be familiar with them as the term Computer Diskette. The black plastic surface inside the Floppy Disk can be easily damage through intense heat and it may even dent. Any information that the user store inside these damaged Floppy Disk may as well say “Good Bye” as it may as well be already been destroyed.It is safer to hold the disk by its label area. When not in use, better store it in a protected container and the storage must be at room temperature.When inserting the disk, it is essential for the user know which side if the disk is up. The disk should have a ‘click’ sound when being inserted into the disk drive (the eject button of the disk drive would always pop out). Ejecting the disk is as simple as pressing the eject button which was pop out when the disk was inserted earlier.Things you SHOULD DO to the disk:Always hold the disk by the edge or by its label area.Insert the disk properly; the label area of the disk will indicate that the disk is the r
After month of “freedom” you will return and your odometer reading will be rerecorded and your vehicle checked for any new political advertisements which you might have dared to add to your vehicle. Then the Department of Odometer Standards and Measures Oversight Committee will be consulted to approve the difference between the new reading and the old reading.
Now the real fun begins!
The previously agreed to size of your political advertisement and your odometer readings will be fed into a state of the art computer (with no paper trail of course) along with the total number of people which have seen your advertisement and which you will be required, under oath of course, to keep records of and attest to. Remember, there have been federal agents on your tail for that month so you had better be honest!
You will also turn over the records for things such as hourly wind speed and direction, cloud cover, precipitation, and assorted other meteorological data. Don’t roll your eyes at me young ward of the state! This information is important to determining th
Below is an article of rambling writing tips and interesting little tid bits. I could probably write an article a week directed at these. Some will help would be writers and some wont but one thing for sure is that most of them are interesting.1. FootnoteA footnote is a complete bibliographical citation indicated by a number in the text. Endnotes follow the same format but are listed on a page at the end of the paper. Today’s great computer programs make them easy to prepare.2. ParagraphsParagraphs in newspapers are most often one or two sentences long. Paragraphs in essays are far longer. Newspapers writers assume your not going to read the article all the way through. They keep their paragraphs punchy to keep you interested. Essay writers assume you’re in for the long haul. They have the luxury of writing more discursive passages.3. English Is DifferentAll English isn’t the same. British English, used not only in Great Britain but also in India, the West Indies, and parts of Africa, uses some words and phrases differently from Am
Kirk Shelmerdine, formerly one of NASCAR’s greatest crew chiefs and since turned struggling driver, has already been attacked by government bureaucrats empowered by Mr. McCain. You see, Mr. Shelmerdine is not exactly a driver who has sponsors falling over themselves to plaster their brand name on his racecar. He is perpetually at the back of the pack in any race he manages to qualify for and about the only time the cameras or the crowd even look at him is when he is getting lapped by the race leader.
Overall he is not what we would call a “good investment” if you know what I mean.
So during the 2004 race season and during the last Presidential election he decided to slap a Bush/Cheney 2004 bumper sticker on his race car to fill up some of the empty space. Well that was simply too much for one Sydnor Thompson! Comrade Thompson, as he shall now be known, simply could not deal with someone else practicing their free speech. So he filed a complaint which basically boiled down to how dare Mr. Shelmerdine be allowed to do use the first amendment.
The FEC graciously spared Mr. Shelmerdine a fine. But they did admonish him. How nice. Maybe our government masters can be even more gracious and let him have an extra log for the fire too?
Where do we go from here? Companies pay thousands of dollars for billboards and other outdoor advertising after all. So your back bumper must have some value and it just might exceed an arbitrary limit and trigger a violation of campaign finance laws.
The answer is as obvious as ugly is on Helen Thomas. We need a new government bureaucracy! We’ll call it the Bureau for the Establishment of Noticing Deficiency with Obedience to Vehicle Election Regulations or BEND OVER for short.
BEND OVER will set up government stations where you will be required to report to each month during a presidential campaign. To keep costs down however we will only have one per state. You’ll just have to deal with driving several hours to get to your state’s facility.
Once there and after inching your way up through the line a government bureaucrat not even capable of asking “would like fries with that” and holding down a real job will inspect your vehicle. He or she (or possibly it?) will take a mandatory two hours to check every inch of your vehicle with a high powered magnifying glass for political advertisements and endorsements. Luckily these only cost the taxpayers $500,000 each due to a bulk discount.
If your car is deemed not have such things you will be free to go; after paying a $500 inspection fee of course. However if you do have a bumper sticker or other form of political endorsement anywhere on your vehicle it will be duly noted in triplicate. At this point its exact size will be measured by three other government bureaucrats.
They will then retire into committee to discuss the exact size of said political advertisement while consulting thousands of pages of guidelines. Some of the regulations will obviously contradict each other so only those regulations that will maximize your potential violations will be used while all others are discarded.
If these bureaucrats are unable to agree upon the actual size, your vehicle will be impounded for up to six months while lesser qualified but higher ranking bureaucrats are consulted. Where do you think you are going? You will not be allowed to leave the facility. Instead you will be placed under arrest for the potential violation of campaign finance laws. At the end of those six months if there is still no agreement your car may be impounded for another six months repeating this cycle until consensus is achieved.
However, once the exact size of your political advertisement has been agreed upon, another bureaucrat highly trained in reading numerals will record your odometer reading. This will be done ten separate times over the course of a day just to verify that the readings are accurate and then sent to the newly formed Department of Odometer Standards and Measures for approval (a procedure that can take several weeks).
At this point you will be allowed to leave but only after posting $200,000 bond (in cash) to cover any potential fines. If you cannot post the bond you will be held in a special detention center while your case is under review. Don’t worry, your family will be allowed to visit you once every six months and a government approved illegal alien will fill in for you at work.
If you are capable of posting the bond you will have a special tracking bracelet clamped to your ankle just in case you have any ideas about not showing up for your court ordered re-inspection next month. You may also notice black helicopters and vans filled with federal agents following you. Have no fear. They are just there to make sure you do not try to flee the country.
After month of “freedom” you will return and your odometer reading will be rerecorded and your vehicle checked for any new political advertisements which you might have dared to add to your vehicle. Then the Department of Odometer Standards and Measures Oversight Committee will be consulted to approve the difference between the new reading and the old reading.

Laser cutting is a precision cutting method widely used in industrial manufacturing. Laser cutting allows a level of accuracy unmatched by any other cutting method. A high-powered laser is directed at the material to be cut. The material burns, melts or vaporizes, leaving a high quality finish.Apart from the common materials such as wood, plastic and metal, laser cutting is also widely used in the processing of glass. Glass has become an important component of a large number of applications. Its use is not just restricted to windows and bottles but has expanded to telecommunications and information technology. These modern applications require a higher level of accuracy and precision that cannot be matched by traditional methods.Traditional glass cutting methods make direct contact with the surface, increasing chances of unwanted scratches and abrasions. Moreover, material losses and glass dust are other problems faced in the conventional process.The use of lasers has revolutionized the art of glass cutting. The laser beam is used to produce highly complex and a

When managers hear the word ergonomics, they usually think of money - as in what it will cost them to outfit workstations with new equipment.You Don't Have to Spend Lots of Cash In reality the money needed may be minimal. Your employees' health should be the overriding concern, says Dan Eisman, Vice President of marketing and product development for HealthyComputing.com. Simple adjustments to a computing environment - such as getting a better chair - may cost little but can make a huge difference to injuries and employee absences.Understanding how poor positioning combined with no breaks can lead to musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) should be a priority for anyone who works at a PC or employs people who do.Businesses very often don't need to completely overhaul the workplace, Eisman says. "But if you have the knowledge, you can better know what to do and what to spend," he says. He advises employers to learn about what triggers wrist pain and other repetitive-stress injuries, and spend time watching and training their empl

Interviews can be stressful at the best of times, however there are some factors we can be aware of which can stack the odds more in our favour. Interviews have got more sophisticated over time and now you can be faced with many challenges, your ability to role-play and physiological testing can all come into play. While no one can know for certain, what type of interview they are going to be faced with, keeping your cool and being able to adapt quickly and easily to almost all types of interview is a must. Here are 5 top tips to help get you through your interview successfully.1. Make sure you are fully prepared – while this should go without saying, it is surprising how many people are not truly prepared for their interview. If you are unprepared then you won’t have the confidence needed. While you will have prepared yourself in ways such as your dress and grooming, you also have to prepare yourself mentally. Develop a strategy that will allow you to be ready for anything that the interviewer could throw your way, while you cannot be certain exactly what the interviewer wil

In 2007, it’s a MySpace world. Everywhere you go and everything you hear about is MySpace this, and MySpace that. 80 million or so registered users have a way of wielding their power. It’s no wonder that this social networking juggernaut is now teaming up with the wireless companies.MySpace officially partnered with Cingular Wireless, the largest U.S. mobile-phone service provider in April 2006. If you have a MySpace account, you can get short text messages sent to you when new comments or friend requests get posted to your MySpace profile.MySpace is planning to make its mobile features available through all major U.S. carriers soon. Wireless startup Helio began offering phones preloaded with MySpace capabilities. Users can view profiles of friends and post comments and photos directly onto MySpace.The goal of MySpace? To make its mobile applications a preloaded feature on all mobile phones in the world.In fact, cell phones everywhere are dialing in to the top social networking sites.Here’s what some of the other top social networking sites are doi

Then the Department of Odometer Standards and Measures Oversight Committee will be consulted to approve the difference between the new reading and the old reading.
Now the real fun begins!
The previously agreed to size of your political advertisement and your odometer readings will be fed into a state of the art computer (with no paper trail of course) along with the total number of people which have seen your advertisement and which you will be required, under oath of course, to keep records of and attest to. Remember, there have been federal agents on your tail for that month so you had better be honest!
You will also turn over the records for things such as hourly wind speed and direction, cloud cover, precipitation, and assorted other meteorological data. Don’t roll your eyes at me young ward of the state! This information is important to determining the value of your advertisement.
As the computer spits out the final value, it will be written down by yet another bureaucrat on special paper and sealed without you being allowed to look at it. This package will then be sent to the offices of the FEC where they will review the information for the next two years. During those two years you however will be free to go. However your car will not be allowed to leave the inspection station.
Once the FEC has reviewed your case the packet will be sent back to the inspection station via armed courier along with either an “admonishment” (if you are lucky) for daring to show support for the candidate of your choice in public or (if you are unlucky) a fine to be paid plus interested accrued since the date your political advertisement was first noted by the government bureaucrats. If you posted the $200,000 cash bond and your fine happens to be less than that amount sorry, but you will not receive any refund. The federal government has already spent the money. There are tons of people out there with their hands out after all!
If your fine is determined to be in excess of your initial bond and you cannot pay the difference you will be thrown in jail for not less than 50 years for daring to practice your free speech. But if you can pay all applicable fines your vehicle and your keys will be returned to you.
You might however notice that the vehicle is in decidedly worse shape than when you first got it and that your “political advertisement” has been forcibly removed by scraping the paint off the vehicle down to the bare steel. This is because for the two years while your vehicle was impounded the government was using it for a variety of purposes to better serve the “common good” and being generally run into the ground. Hey, just be thankful that you got it back!
Please also be aware that in order to be “fair” to “poor” families who obviously do not have the means to post the $200,000 bond when they place political endorsements on their vehicles, you may be asked to post the bond for them. If you are not able to post the bond for them then you will be treated just as if you were not able to pay your own bond. Hey, you’re “rich” so stop your damn gripping!
So have you learned your lesson about expressing your political beliefs in public yet?
