Foss Patents (http://fosspatents.blogspot.com/2011/04/samsung-now-countersuing-apple-in-four.html) and Bloomberg (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-04-28/samsung-broadens-patent-dispute-against-apple-with-u-s-lawsuit.html) report that Samsung has broadened its patent lawsuit against Apple to include the U.S.In the U.S. complaint, Samsung accuses Apple of violating patents that "relate to fundamental innovations that increase mobile device reliability, efficiency, and quality, and improve user interface in mobile handsets and other products."The 10 patents that Samsung is alleging that Apple has infringed upon are detailed (http://fosspatents.blogspot.com/2011/04/samsung-now-countersuing-apple-in-four.html) on the Foss Patents blog. Seven of the patents are related to communications standards and the others with user interface.
The Samsung counter-suit is in response to Apple's original lawsuit against Samsung over the Galaxy line (http://www.macrumors.com/2011/04/18/apple-targets-samsung-with-new-lawsuit-over-galaxy-line/) of smartphones and tablets. Apple has accused Samsung of "blatant copying" of the iPhone.

So, what do you call, and how do we handle the individual(s)who planned, and helped to plan the death of 3,000 + individuals on 9/11, the bombing of the U.S.S. Cole, the Bali nightclub bombings, and who knows how many more acts of terrorism?
Can you honestly sit there and tell me that when we have in custody a high profile leader such as K.S.M. who has intricate, first hand knowledge of a terrorist organization that we should not do all that we can to obtain as much information from this person as possible? I suppose your thinking (and those of many others here) is that he should have been given a trial by jury, sent to prison, and that we had no right to try and obtain information from him?
This is a false choice. We can interrogate someone, but we cannot torture them.
Think The Closer rather than 24.
To quote someone else in this thread "show me proof", in terms of actual statements given under duress and the results of that information. Until you or I see that we are both really just hand-waving.
As for the guy in the video, he's really the only one out there that I have seen that is so vocal about the ineffectiveness of E.I. I suspect that he is either someone that:
a) Is just out to make a quick buck off his book;
b) Has a grudge;
c) Has remorse about things that he has done and is trying to make amends.
So, you're going to dismiss the arguments of Matthew Alexander, but readily accept those of people who could be prosecuted for ordering acts of torture? I'd think that John Yoo, for example, would be much less trustworthy than Alexander in these cases.
BTW, if you guys haven't read Marc Thiessen's Courting Disaster, pick it up. He explains that waterboarding was not used to get answers to questions or confessions, but rather to break their will and spirit and get them to agree to start cooperating.
Theissen's attempt to draw this distinction is just a distortion of logic. A person who has been tortured and knows that a moment's hesitation will lead to more torture is physiologically and psychologically different than they were before
Torture changes (http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/80beats/2009/09/22/neuroscientist-says-torture-produces-false-memories-and-bad-intel/) the brain and damages memory and 'executive' faculties.

Not sure why anyone would be surprised at this
AT&T has always wanted to increase prices across the board whenever they have a product that is going to sell well
They never give an actual answer as to why thus it is pretty easy to see that they are doing it strictly to get more money and little to do with actual increases in costs.
Typical ISP

Funny how NC law forbids the sale of handguns to anyone under 21, but you're 21 and you already have 2 expensive guns (and the iPhone you took the photo with). And yet you have to run a racket to be able afford a guitar.
He's probably a professional thief/conboy(hence not a man)/racketeer.
Hence his paranoid need for self defense, he's probably scare of the poor people he's SCAMMED.

Again to get the real hourly wage divide $25 by 3, that is the true hourly rate which is $8.30. Reasonable I think not.
Generally the rule is the rule of 3 (this is how I quote, clients are happy and I don't undercut myself), times quotes by 3 and divide your hourly rate by this will give you the most accurate way of billing and ensuring you don't undercut yourself while the actual payment is never over the quoted amount (clients love this). It means it will allow you to reinvest in yourself with sick leave, holidays, new equipment and software.
So for a site mock up I would have quoted $675, while the actual billable would have come in around $375-$450.
Hi. Thanks yet again for all the advice. I've learned more about pricing from this thread the last 2 days, than I did all my years at school. If I can be a pig and ask for a little more advice. I'd like to show an example of what I've been doing for a client who owns a music studio/music school. They have me design cd packaging for their artists, that they then send to Oasis for print. The one on the right has already gone to print and the artist was very happy with the end result. The one on the left is near finished. I'm ashamed to say I charged the same low hourly figure for this work as well. What do you think this kind of work is worth; if I may ask? Thanks :)

You do realise the negative connotation of those lyrics right ? Anyone thinking "Castle in the sky!" is positive and cute needs to wake up to what was actually meant by the metaphor.
Next you guys will be telling us how great it is for Apple to build houses on sand.
Yup! And if this new Castle thing really is a new .mac or MobileMe service, then it's really a castle in the sky. Why all that name change? I mean, a name doesn't define the quality of a service.

Nobody really answered my question. I hate to repost it again just trying to find an answer. I tried to call the at&t rep and they don't know what going on.
I had iPhone 3GS 32GB had it about almost a year. They let me do an early upgrade for the new iPhone 4 in June when it came out for the price of $299 with a two year agreement.
The question I have is let just say the new iPhone 5 comes out with the same price point let say June release like last year. By this new $50 thing does that mean I pay for $549 price point or can I just pay the $299 plus the two year agreement like I did last year?
Thanks guys

Apple should offer a free trade if you already have a black iPhone 4.

I used to have a program on my Mac that would let me play an audio file and it would let me highlight a moment of time and tell me what note is being played. This was really handy for figuring out bass notes that are too difficult for me to normally here.
Does anyone know of a software like this?

First off, I'd like to apologize. This is ANOTHER RAM question. the problem is searching for ram+powerbook brings up so many other irrelevant topics.
Anyways, I've been looking at RAM on newegg. As long as it has a lifetime warranty, is there any difference between manufacturers?
also, I know my PB takes 200pin DDR PC2700 ram. is that the only type I can use, or can I use other kinds such as DDR2 (way cheaper)? I attached a system profiler screenshot for kicks.
