How did the new CBA reduce interest in vets?

Wow you know everything there is to know about those 4 items, including such broad subjects/fields as #3 human needs and #4 "technology" ... I don't want you to watch the vid, really I could care less. All I want from someone as dogmatic and naively arrogant as you is to stay away from any technology assignment I may have.

If those #'s are accurate that's the only good reason I can think of not to sign him. But I thought given our decision not to resign levite we had more than ample space to sign dansby, the rooks, and byrd to long term deal

Its offshore and its private. US has no authority shutting down foreign companies for activities outside US. The site was not set up to break laws. If some use it illegally in your country go after the users in your country. The main legal challenge dotcom's lawyers pose is simply that: complete lack of US jurisdiction. He may very well win too. Dodd may control his buddy biden at home, but America isn't the world.

In February 2011, despite "repeatedly and categorically insisting that he would not work as a lobbyist,"[20][21] Dodd was identified by The New York Times as the likely replacement for Dan Glickman as chairman and chief lobbyist for the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA).[22] The hiring was officially announced on March 1, 2011,[23] with his salary estimated at $1.5 million per year.[24] http://en.wikipedia....wiki/Chris_Dodd Acting upon a US Federal prosecutor's request, the New Zealand Police arrested Dotcom and three other Megaupload executives in a leased $30 million mansion at Coatesville near Auckland on Friday, 20 January 2012 http://en.wikipedia....load_legal_case

For those of you not already following the Medgaupload situation ... http://www.forbes.co...-of-kim-dotcom/ Kim Dotcom's latest challenge to Obama administration (even Chris Dodd rears his ugly head)... Megaupload Launches Frontal Attack on White House Corruption Megaupload’s legal team are not restricting their fight with the U.S. Government only to the courts. Today they published a detailed white paper accusing the White House of selling out to corporate interests, particularly Hollywood. “The message is clear. The White House is for sale. More and more of our rights are eroding away to protect the interests of large corporations and their billionaire shareholders,” Dotcom summarizes. Megaupload’s lawyers see the MPAA (Motion Picture Association) as the driving force behind the criminal prosecution of the cloud hosting site and its employees. According to them, it is no coincidence that the Hollywood group is headed by former Senator Chris Dodd, one of Vice President Joe Biden’s best friends. “As the new Chairman and CEO of the MPAA, Chris Dodd improperly leveraged his friendship with Joe Biden to achieve the MPAA’s objectives. Former Senator Dodd’s relationship with the Vice President– who comes off manipulated, a cheerfully credulous facilitator – together with the Obama Administration’s ravenous hunger for campaign contributions, has given the MPAA absolute control over how the U.S. Department of Justice plays the game in enforcing copyright law,” they write. One cited example of how political funding was used to influence decisions was a January 2012 threat from the MPAA’s Chris Dodd. He stated that Hollywood would stop donating to politicians who fail to protect their interests. “By threatening to revoke vital political and monetary support from the Administration at a crucial moment, the MPAA has exercised de facto control over key levers of executive power in Washington – law enforcement, prosecutors, trade negotiators – and is using those instruments of state power to further the financial interests of its members in Hollywood.”

[closed]Speed....you can't teach speed.
truth on hold replied to MysticallyDelicious's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree. Speed is a great asset and you have it or you don't. I would caution however 40 time doesn't translate 1 to 1 on the field because players are in pads, on different turf, getting hit, etc. But guys who have it on the field can present a dilemma for defender PROVIDED they have the other requisite skills. In man, a DB either has to play close to the line and try and to get physical, and if he misses get beat deep. Or give a cushion and play off and concede the underneath stuff. -

I think we're fast approaching a time when this type of public disclosure will be more necessary
