There is more to taking a photo, yes, but not to claiming a copyright, at least not in the US. "Generally, the author and initial copyright owner of a photograph is the person who 'shoots' or 'takes' the photo."

I'm not saying I disagree with the idea of mandatory voting, per se. But in the U.S., a fine for not voting would quickly be labeled a "poll tax", which would immediately raise the connotation of being racist in nature. In a

The party that spent 20 years complaining about the billions we spent on military support to prop up corrupt but US-friendly regimes now claims that not spending billions to prop up a corrupt but US-friendly regime is evidence of collabor

You're a perfect example of what jerf is talking about. "I'll get the dog and you get the kids and we'll meet at Aunt Sue's place" is "an emergency plan." Stockpiling 3 months of rations is more prepp

This is something I see all the time, asking for delivery on large items like furniture. If you're getting a $100+ item for free, it shouldn't be too much to ask that you do the legwork to arrange transportation.

This is crazy, I know, but if you're not sure about objective facts like "when the polls are open" or "who is running for each position", the best course of action would be to consult your local elections board. If

Or, to put it another way: don't depend on a single channel for the majority of your information, regardless of what that channel is. If you get your information from a variety of unrelated channels, then one channel being compromised

Inviting new people into your friend group is as much a learned social skill as "putting yourself out there" is. I don't mean this too harshly - you were just kids, after all - but I would posit that the fact that your friend

Is there any way to set current location and destination? I very much like the radio interface, though I only seem to be able to get two stations. I'd like to explore the radio stations available in different metro areas.

That quip doesn't necessarily mean your direct manager, though. If the company doesn't support employee growth, or is ethically dodgy, those are management decisions. Anecdotal, but I've definitely had a situation where my

These are definitely being done, but in many cases, the well-done ones cost more than a trailer home. Look up some of the van life channels on You Tube; most of them have early videos detailing the cost outlays required. It's a lot eas

ResusciAnnie has been the gold standard CPR mannequin since at least the early 90s when I first learned CPR at my local fire station. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen a CPR mannequin that wasn't based on Annie.
