If a breathalizer machine could be manipulated by certain commands entered into the machine to produce results favorable to cops and prosecutors and the underlying source code on the machine was not made available to the defense under the guise of "trade secrets" thereby rendering accuracy of said machine unprovable except for what the prosecution states would you vote to convict? Remember that under the constitution you have a right to confront your accuser.But the prosecution and the machines' manufacturer are trying to play hide the ball with potentially damaging information about the reliability of the machine.

Hang on to any of the new Arkansas Quarters. If you have them, they may be worth much more than 25 cents. The US Mint announced today that it is recalling all of the Arkansas quarters that are part of its program featuring quarters from each state. This action is being taken after numerous reports that the new quarters will not work in parking meters, toll booths, vending machines, pay phones or any other coin operated devices.

The problem lies in the unique design of the Arkansas quarter, which was designed by a team of Ozark specialists. Apparently the duct tape holding the two dimes and the nickel together keeps jamming up the machines.

I am an Army wife, my husband is deployed.. He has been gone 6 months, since we had a family emergency come up in December and he came home, he will not be home for 6 more months. I have done real well, until now.. I looked to see how long I had and I am only half way.. It has broke my heart, I have cried cried cried.. I cant seem to find the ways to stay strong anymore, I give so much honest advice to others and it helps them. But I have none of my own. I have hobbies, keep busy, and try to think the best.. But I am missing so much, and cring so much.. I keep goingback to what I miss instead of what I can look forward to.. My biggest one is I moved home while he was over there, and there is no sign of him hear, no smell of him either.. Is this something we all will go through? Can and will it get better in the days gone past, will this make me stronger for the next deployment, and is moving the best thing to do? Just to let you all know I sure miss the sound of dogtags the most.

Specifically, are there, in fact, and not in your imaginings, any at all, even one, Anglican Churches in Iraq that are not a part of the invading military establishment?
Similarly, are there any Anglican churches in Pakistan?

(I really should not talk about current events in a pub with a friend who thinks we are about to face an almighty war with "muslim pakis").
And, if that doesn't get my question removed, I would be interested in any sort of accurate answer.

At the company i work at, we have been asking customers for their zip codes. Most people comply, but a precious few have declined. Now, we were told that in a few weeks, we will have to ask customers for their phone #. Another employee and i expressed some concerns about having to ask at all because it just seems too intrusive. I figure this would be a good question, as people shop everyday, and this practice isn't all that uncommon. I'm sooo looking forward to some answers here! Thanks in advance people!

I'm Jewish and I'm use to the deal when you have some people who will throw small change and see who gets it and then they will make fun of that person and say "What are you Jewish?" I have also had people put a quarter or penny near me and see if I pick it up.

What I am trying to say in this question is... How are we (Jewish people) money lovers. Christians, Protestants, and Cathloics have two holidays (Easter and Christmas) that are represented by mystical creatures who come to your house and leave stuff. I have two complaints about this. One how is this realated to the holiday. And two, these creatures where created for marketing, to make money. Jews have no creatures that come to houses leaving things. We like our holidays like they have been for 2,000 years. We do not create creatures to make money.

I'm not complaining or trying to say Cristians, Protestants, and Cathloics are the money lovers but, that we all have our take in money.
