Evidence Suggests Major Film Studios Uploading Movie Clips To YouTube... Pretending To Be Pirated
LOL, Youtube is supposed to decrease revenue, and is supposed to be destroying the industry! Yet, clear evidence that it's a tool for increased revenue... Idiots. Youtube should now be given the amount being sued for, to pay for advertising these movies.
As Expected, House Agrees To Extend Patriot Act With No Discussion, No Oversight
Our government is abusive and backwards. Why is illegal spying needed? Why are the laws that have been in place forever being circumvented by the Idiot son of an asshole's failure(bush jr), this is in all actuality a constant attack on the freedoms and privacy of the american civilians, lending the US government to nothing more then the Taliban under a different name.
Every person that voted yes to extending this travesty is a terrorist against the US. That is my final *opinion*.
I stopped by the shell gas station (1190 Crater Lake Avenue, Medford, OR 97504-6242 ph: (541) 770-9104 ), to get $10.00 in gas. When i checked my card, they had charged $74.00. I called them and learned that this is a "Hold" placed on certain debit cards. This amount is set by the bank and that I would have to wait up to 72 hours for this to be returned. Ok, but without letting the customer know? The service guy says, "It is not our responsibility to let you know, it's your banks.", when I questioned why they wouldn't warn the customer or let them know somehow he promptly said it's "On the pump". Here in Oregon you do not pump your own gas, so to get out and look at the pump isn't something that is done. So, i explained that this was poor service, he said, "I got to go." and hung up on me.
So, is it your bank doing this? is it the responsibility of the bank to let you know?
according to "Hosed at the gas pump" http://on-msn.com/xkhNE - "While the length of the hold is up to your bank, the amount of the hold is up to your gasoline retailer."

So, if california is mandated by law to say, then why not oregon? Why hasn't the banks done something?
I figure it's making money for somone somewhere while we the consumer get it in the, well, you know.
Every January 1st is supposed to be "Public Domain Day," in which all works published in a certain year move into the public domain. And while some parts of the world get to celebrate Public Domain Day this year with the freeing of works by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Paul Klee, Leon Trotsky, Walter Benjamin and others, here in the US, we come up empty yet again.
Another year I don't buy books, music, movies. They take away, and I do not give.
Wait a minute!!! If these channels are dropped, does that put Dish Network in the position of breaking the contract I have with them, since I am paying for 250 channels.. not 247?!
At any rate, they should be able to negotiate there own business deals without needing me to click a damn link. As i see it, it's just the greedy fighting the greedy, and If it wasn't for a 2 year contract, my family would be TV free.. Using Netflix and over the air.
Stupid company think I care about what they pay... They need to worry about what I pay, If it goes up more hen 2$ in the year... I pay 150$ termination fee, and bounce.
I only get 4 hours sleep a night, except for 2 days a week, where i might get 6-8, but usually around 5-6. I have read that you need 7.5 - 9 hours of sleep a night to function at top ability. I am definitely not at my best, at work or home, seems like I am getting worse all the time; Sleepier, fatigued, and grumpier.
I have been working hard to eliminate situations that are stressful or that are too active, thus allowing me to conserve energy. I have been taking coffee and energy pills; those are now, no longer working.
So, what should I do?
A. No political parties have ever made the USA better off then the way they got it when elected.
B. No president has ever done "Less" damage, they have all hurt the american people in one way or another.
C. Banks and lobbyists control our government.
D. you are only worth the amount of money that they can get back from you, or put you into debt for. Otherwise you have no value to government.
E. A two party system is like 2 sides of the same coin, regardless of whom is chosen, you get the same coin.
F. Fighting amongst ourselves or arguing about politics is as useful as slashing your own tires.
I think you get the point.
Summary. According to the U.S. Government Federal Trade Commission, consumers have the legal right to return software for a full refund (or perhaps in-store credit) if it is defective, or does not work on their computer, or if it did not perform as advertised, or if they simply decide that for any reason they were not completely satisfied with the product. The validity of this fact is demonstrated by the prevalence of resellers and software manufacturers who offer a 100% money back satisfaction guarantee on their software.
The Software Sales Scam. It’s amazing how many companies have a software return policy that doesn’t permit refunds
