  1. Yes, the Dems were remiss in not codifying Rowe when they had the majority in both houses.
  2. We should blame Obama & Co for being so lackadaisical as the Dem majorities shrank with each election after 2008.
  3. There is a limit to how far a Court can reasonably infer how the mentality of the 18th Century framers of the Constitution should determine how the Court rules today. In particular, bringing back states' rights to set local rules regarding abortion flies in the face of women's rights which logically cannot be different state-to-state. The concept of an unviable fetus having personal rights is more a theological concept than a constitutional one. Then again, the right to bear arms could be subject to limitation by local rules when not subsumed by the militia provision of the Constitution.
  4. The military governments of Taiwan and S Korea were quite repressive, yet they eventually yielded to the popular will.
  5. I would call the present Court an echo chamber for reactionaries. The machinations of McConnell et al to engineer this majority are a subversion of democracy.
  6. But who's name is on the share register?
  7. It seems that the complainants are basing ownership listed on the share register of the defunct company. In the US there is a market (pink sheets) for delisted shares.
  8. Apparently he did divest himself of the shares, but there was and is no way to record that on the share register. These were his father's shares, so I guess his dad's name was and is still listed as owner.
  9. S. Korea and Taiwan changed. Why not Thailand?
  10. Sorry, I was talking about a newer CT scanner (as an alternative to a MRI machine).
  11. It was explained that due to the company being inactive, the shares cannot be traded on BSE and the company register cannot be altered to reflect any transfer of ownership. The other MP possessor of iTV shares is said to have created a document giving his shares to a relative, and Pita may have done something similar.
  12. The device is just a ring not more than 15 cm thick as I remember. How could anyone experience claustrophobia with that?
  13. This reminds me of the naivete of Obama. After the big victory in 2008, he became overconfident and complacent and soon after lost his 60 member supermajority in the US Senate.
  14. Years ago I had a CT scan (abdomen) with a CT device that was just a doughnut ring. It took seconds. How could that be claustrophobic? Maybe a hospital here has one like that.
  15. There was a Panorama program on BBC about such a scam operation in Sihanoukville where they got women in the US to part with $ millions. The scam workers were Chinese lured to Cambodia as described here.
  16. This year a group was asking for Crestor to be removed from the US market, but apparently that has not happened. What's odd is that the group was complaining about a recently approved Crestor. Maybe that concerned an approval for a new pediatric treatment which Astra Zeneca was claiming would entitle it to prolong it's exclusivity for adult usage, but the FDA rejected that gambit. Crestor has actually been around since around 2003. It is the brand product of the drug rosuvastatin. I just bought Crestor in a pharmacy in CM.
  17. So is Bangkok Bank continuing to offer internet banking? Now I'm using SCB, but have not received the termination notice yet.
  18. We have had the WP-105 and WP-205 models for many years. I believe that there's a spring on the solenoid that can be adjusted. Try that to see whether that stops the on-off bursts. This problem could be caused by using a non-standard tank which necessitates changing the pressure. If that doesn't work, then having somebody from the shop come to look is the next step.
  19. How about rounding up the pitbulls and exporting them to China as "special delicacy". Ingestion will surely increase virility or fierceness of the gourmet customers.
  20. The whole point is repeating a lie endlessly might convince some of those not yet deluded.
  21. So they will switch their viewing to CBN (Christian Broadcasting Network) or throw their TVs out the window.
  22. The primary system works by divide & conquer. With all the "Republican" fragmentation, Trump could be their candidate again!!
  23. For a vote to be counted it has to be postmarked, etc, before the election.
  24. When the TM-30 is done online, is a receipt of notification issued? If so, do we have to go online to get it later or do they send it in an email?
