Honestly its just a cool tool to try and show up apple, but I dont see any benefits that would be considered as value added. If it was encrypted...then yeah I could say so. http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19736_7-57455744-251/samsungs-s-beam-teaches-android-a-new-trick/

Now thats alot of pussy!

Sorry, I was under the impression that Apple inc was an American multinational corporation from Cupertino Calif. that seems to think that it could own the world by taking to court all those who have a better product whilst still depending heavily on the technology of those who produce a better product. So please forgive my ignorance and this fucking stupid post. ---------------------------------------------------------- I am one who chooses to have the Samsung Galaxy SIII in a sea of apple whores. Of course my phone dominates that shit all day long. Whomever Apple hired to do this commercial needs to be fired right NOW. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9H365yzynSs Now Samsung lays the smack down on apple http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKh68YfQYkE 'when do you think well be able to do that? on the next one?

I am sorry, but where they forced to join? When exactly was the last time Canada had a draft for military?

------------------------------------------------------ Something's got to be done about those 440 murders in Chicago so far this year. That's intolerable. Go ahead and provide the documents that show ALL of those 440 people were killed with guns purchased legally and how this tax proposal will actually change anything.

In other apple news China has asked to re-write the code that allows siri to point to escort services when asked 'find me a prostitute'. But that seems to be OK in the rest of the world. China has prostitutes?

Was that the name of the captain?

Marc, it has nothing to do with not agreeing. Stating that blacks vote for Obama because he is black, is accusing the far majority of blacks in the US of racism devoid of the capability of thinking beyond that racism. Making an assertion like that is racist in itself, specially since historical voting patterns are very clear. I am sorry if you cannot see that. In the end there will be racists blacks who will vote for Obama cause he is black, just as there will be whites who won't vote for him cause he is black. Accusing a whole race within the country of that behaviour...well that is racist. Making an assertion like that is racist in itself Thats YOUR opinion. Unless you come out with a video showing 2,000,000 black people saying they prefer to choose obama because of his policies and the fact that he's a democrat (as they are) then you have a point. Otherwise your blatant pointing out other people as being a racist is just a fucking pointless.

----------------------------------------------------- Ive tested several release candidate versions and honestly I dont like it that much. Yes its vastly cheaper but its designed for tablets. Finding the applet similar to the control panel is difficult and I'll just stay with my current version of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit edition. One more thing to add...its boots fast...but my windows 7 build is lightning fast as well. Of course I've got two 120 GB SSD's running in RAID 0.

Since you are canadian and probably never served in the US military you dont know shit about what these people are going through. I am ex military and my nephew is in the Navy and my neice is married to an army ranger. While it doesnt shock me that you would make a total asshat comment like the one above it also wouldnt suprise me if you like stroking your tiny wee wee to pictures of obama. Let me know when you have something relevant to say.

In an effort to cut defense spending, the Obama Administration plans to cut health benefits for active duty and retired military personnel and their families while not touching the benefits enjoyed by unionized civilian defense workers. The move, congressional aides suggested, is to force those individuals into Obamacare, Bill Gertz reported at the Washington Beacon. The proposed increases in health care payments by service members, which must be approved by Congress, are part of the Pentagon’s $487 billion cut in spending. It seeks to save $1.8 billion from the Tricare medical system in the fiscal 2013 budget, and $12.9 billion by 2017. Not everybody is happy with the plan, however. Military personnel would see their annual Tricare premiums increase anywhere from 30 - 78 percent in the first year, followed by sharply increased premiums "ranging from 94 percent to 345 percent—more than 3 times current levels." "According to congressional assessments, a retired Army colonel with a family currently paying $460 a year for health care will pay $2,048," Gertz wrote. Active duty military personnel would also see an increased cost for pharmaceuticals, and the incentive to use less expensive generic drugs would be gone. Health benefits has long been a prime reason many stay in the military - but some in the Pentagon fear the new rules will hamper recruitment and retention. “Would you stay with a car insurance company that raised your premiums by 345 percent in five years? Probably not,” one aide said. John Hayward of Human Events adds: Veterans will also be hit with a new annual fee for a program called Tricare for Life, on top of the monthly premiums they already pay, while some benefits will become “means-tested” in the manner of a social program – treating them like welfare instead of benefits for military service. Naturally, this is all timed to begin next year and “avoid upsetting military voters in a presidential election year,” according to critics. There will be congressional hearings on the new military health care policies next month. Opposition is building in Congress, and among veterans’ organizations, including the VFW, which has “called on all military personnel and the veterans’ community to block the health care increases.” Others are concerned about the double standard being set between uniformed military personnel - who are not unionized - and civilian defense workers who belong to public sector unions. Gertz wrote: A second congressional aide said the administration’s approach to the cuts shows a double standard that hurts the military. “We all recognize that we are in a time of austerity,” this aide said. “But defense has made up to this point 50 percent of deficit reduction cuts that we agreed to, but is only 20 percent of the budget.” The administration is asking troops to get by without the equipment and force levels needed for global missions. “And now they are going to them again and asking them to pay more for their health care when you’ve held the civilian workforce at DoD and across the federal government virtually harmless in all of these cuts. And it just doesn’t seem fair,” the second aide said. At least one Congressman is standing with the military on this issue. “We shouldn’t ask our military to pay our bills when we aren’t willing to impose a similar hardship on the rest of the population,” said Rep. Howard "Buck" McKeon (R-CA), who chairs the House Armed Services Committee. “We can’t keep asking those who have given so much to give that much more,” he added. McKeon will be joined by some 5 million members of 32 military service and veterans groups, according to retired Navy Capt. Kathryn M. Beasley of the Military Officers Association of America, who called the plan "a breach of faith." The Beacon also noted the curious timing of the plan, which is set to begin next year - after the 2012 elections. Critics say this is designed so as not to upset military voters. It's one more reason Barack Hussein Obama does not deserve to be re-elected in November. http://www.examiner.com/article/obama-to-cut-medical-benefits-for-active-retired-military-not-union-workers

I think in the last few presidencies, the selection of VP by the Pres has been very strategic as a "protection method to avoid assassinations". You really have to wonder if that wasn't the primary reason for the selection in the first place. Seriously: Biden, Cheney, Gore, Quayle Seriously, name me a single nutbag from the opposite team that would have wanted to switch to the VP at the time. Frankly, name me single nutbag from either team that would want to switch any of these 4 at ANY time. {{Sure, Gore took a run at it later, but I suspect everyone from both teams is breathing a big sigh of relief now that his fermenting personality is becoming more and more apparent.}} ---------------------------------------------- Thats a great point sir. Touche'

With this forum really heating up politically I would like to disclose my worst fear. The incumbent president gets re-elected and some white nutter goes out and kills him and... Joe Biden becomes president. I'm sorry but BHO is a vastly better choice. Joe Biden AND Nancy Pelosi are truly both FUCKING IDIOTS. If that happens, and the SHTF you'll find all your extreme leftists crouching behind the people with large caliber weapons.

Damn I cant say that without wanting to jab an icepick in my eyeball.

--------------------------------------------------------- You fuckers are all wrong. He said DUNK DIAL. Silly wabbits, he means dunking a basketball while drunk dialing your ex and breathing heavy which results in getting stalker charges and a night in jail.

I dunno...maybe she thought it was a BEER crossing sign and she stopped off to pound a case or two before she called in.

Hell I can't even imagine going to sea in it.... hopefully it will stay in Europe and only go out in good weather in a big bay... I would not even want to get into any weather even if they snuck it around Demark into the Baltic Sea. ------------------------------------------------------ From the looks of the bow being so sharp I bet it could cut right through some nasty seas...but who knows if the rest of the ship can handle it.

------------------------------------------------------- As much as I dislike the policies of BHO. I dont hate him. I FUCKING HATE THAT PIECE OF SHIT NANCY PELOSI. Bitch needs to be burned at the stake.

If you agree with the Romney camp's assessment of the situation, then by extension, you're agreeing with the idea it's ok to vote along racial lines and by further extension, all white people should vote for Romney simply because he's white. I don't know about you, but to me, that's pretty assholish of the Romney camp to say. ---------------------------------------------- Oh yeah because NO BLACK PEOPLE voted for obama just cause he's black. Yeah that would NEVER HAPPEN.

----------------------------------------------------- are you honestly that stupid to think ACORN wasnt responsible for voter fraud? Or are you just playing dumb. If so, nice play, you pulled it off brilliantly.

-------------------------------------------------------- Its only designed to kill left wing liberals so you should be good...oh wait. Nevermind.

Texas has a message for international election observers planning to watch over the Lone Star vote Nov. 6: "BRING IT." Texas officials this week launched a prickly and very public dispute with the Organization for Security and Co-Operation in Europe, which plans to send monitors to polling sites across the U.S. on Election Day. The group has done this since 2002 -- but this year, Texas took exception to what officials perceived as a challenge to the latest wave of voter ID laws. Attorney General Greg Abbott is now threatening to prosecute any observer who breaks state law by getting too close to any polling site. "The OSCE may be entitled to its opinions about Voter ID laws, but your opinion is legally irrelevant in the United States," Abbott wrote in a letter this week to the OSCE. He went on to remind representatives that they are not allowed to enter a polling place, and cautioned against going within 100 feet of the entrance. "Failure to comply with these requirements could subject the OSCE's representatives to criminal prosecution for violating state law," he wrote. The letter touched off a flurry of testy tweets and correspondence that brought in Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to play ref. Janez Lenarcic, director of the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights, fired off a letter to Clinton to complain -- which was followed by a letter from Abbott to Clinton reiterating his concerns. "The threat of criminal sanctions against OSCE/ODIHR observers is unacceptable," Lenarcic said in a statement. "The United States, like all countries in the OSCE, has an obligation to invite ODIHR observers to observe its elections." The United States is one of dozens of members of the Organization for Security and Co-Operation in Europe. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland on Thursday acknowledged Clinton had received letters from both sides and tried to offer assurances. She said the plan to send observers "isn't any different" than in past years. "We had, I think, about 15 states that they were going to go to," she said. "To my knowledge, (Texas is) the only state that came forward and said please reassure us that you're going to follow our state electoral law. And they have now been reassured." On Twitter, Abbott didn't sound reassured. He tweeted: "UN-related vote monitors warn Texas: Don't mess with us. My response: BRING IT." Gov. Rick Perry also chimed in, saying "No UN monitors/inspectors will be part of any TX election process." Perry praised a statement from Texas Secretary of State Hope Andrade addressing both sides. She said in a letter to the OSCE that she was concerned the monitoring program could be "politicized in a manner that could diminish or permanently damage" its credibility. She also said it's important for Texans to understand the group has no jurisdiction over state elections and is only there to learn. Abbott had expressed concern that OSCE met with groups that have filed suit against voter laws in Texas -- including the ACORN-tied Project Vote. A number of left-leaning groups have challenged efforts to enact strict photo ID laws in Texas and other Republican-controlled states, claiming they're an effort to disenfranchise minority voters. Republican lawmakers say they're merely aimed at cracking down on voter fraud. The Texas law is not yet in effect, having been blocked by a federal court. Abbott has taken his case to the Supreme Court. The OSCE referenced such laws in an Oct. 19 report, saying "recent state-level legislative initiatives to limit early voting and introduce stricter voter identification have become highly polarized. Democrats are concerned that these would disenfranchise eligible voters, while Republicans believe they are necessary to protect the integrity of the vote." South Carolina Election Commission spokesman Chris Whitmire said Friday that the OSCE observers are also expected to come to his state, where officials have pushed a similar voter ID law that is not yet in effect. But Whitmire said South Carolina does not share Texas' concerns. "Whoever wants to come observe South Carolina elections, we welcome them," he told FoxNews.com. "We want our election to be as open as possible." http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/10/26/texas-threatens-prosecution-against-international-poll-watchers/
