DeWine argues forcefully that Google is not exempt from state laws that protect consumers and the free market from abuses.Google is one of the largest corporations in the country. market for online search and search advertising, with a 79 percent market share making it the gatekeeper most pass through to find other sites on the Internet.Two recent actions by Google represent a clear effort to frustrate state attorneys general from their core missions of protecting consumers and ensuring fair competition. Right here in Ohio, Google brazenly argued to a state Court of Appeals that the Ohio attorney general cannot enforce Ohio's law prohibiting unfair and anti competitive business practices against Google. Google's argument is that Ohio law is pre empted by a federal statute designed to police indecent and obscene content on the Internet a federal law that Google has argued in court filings is unconstitutional when applied to its business practices. Not surprisingly, an Ohio state trial court rejected Google's argument about federal pre emption of state law in December. Yet Google continues to argue in court filings that a federal statute gives it cover for violating the laws of Ohio and other states that prohibit unfair competition.Google also recently rejected a request made by 36 state attorneys general to meet with CEO Larry Page to express their concerns about Google's sweeping changes to its privacy policy and inquire about Google's measures to protect consumers' privacy. Google's plan to "consolidate" the privacy policies of its numerous online services, such as Gmail, YouTube, Google Maps, Google Search, Google Shopping, Google Travel and Google Books, will allow the company to track, combine and store information it learns about its users every time they log into one of Google's popular services.But instead of recognizing the attorneys general's valid concerns, Google did not even bother to schedule a meeting, much less delay the implementation of its controversial privacy policy.One might expect Google to be attuned to the concerns of numerous state attorneys general, given that it has been reported that the company already was under serious and substantial investigation by six of them (including Ohio's DeWine), not to mention the Federal Trade Commission and its counterpart in Europe, the European Commission.A typical state attorney general focuses on two core principles in enforcing laws related to the private sector: protecting consumers from abuses and promoting fair business practices. It is critical that state attorneys general be able to police businesses operating in their states to protect consumers from unjust and unfair business practices.We live in a free country with free markets that give Google wide latitude to run its business empire. But that freedom is not unfettered; it is bound by numerous laws, including state competition and consumer protection laws.As a former state attorney general, I am distressed that Google continues its campaign to diminish the important role of these officials in promoting fair business practices and protecting consumers. No one in our country is above the law not even a company as successful as Google.Registration on or use of this site constitutes acceptance of our User Agreement and Privacy PolicyThe material on this site may not be reproduced, distributed, transmitted, cached or otherwise used, except with the prior written permission of Northeast Ohio Media Group LLC.

He has ascertained beyond a scintilla of a doubt, that Iraq has absolutely no weapons of mass destruction. In Gulf War 1, George Bush Sr. on the advice of General Colin Powell did not march on to Baghdad because they knew that they could not control the country, just as the mighty Soviet Union could not control Pops, aka Poppy aka Puff Daddy aka P. Diddy Afghanistan. When the Russians invaded Afghanistan, the United States hired Osama Bin Laden and the Bin Laden family to boot them out, which they succeeded in doing. In return, the Bin Laden family financed the oil company of George Bush Jr. In 1941 or thereabouts Japan invade Pearl Harbor. The oysters were extremely busy that day praying for the souls of their ghosts. You cannot write fiction as twisted as actual human behavior because you could never suspend the disbelief. Today, 66 years after the WWII, the United States, Britain, Italy, Germany and Japan are best friends. Perhaps there really is hope for a reconciliation between Hilary Duff and Lindsay Lohan. Humans, like prize fighters can only embrace in the ring after they beat each other's brains out. Are web rings good or bad for your SEO? Some say that they are poisonous like link farms and others swear by them. You can curse like Hell on television and the big screen, and pretend to cut people's heads off in your video game, with blood flying all over the place, but you cannot curse in your articles or your books. Why is that? The Democratic Party led by Hilary Clinton freely admits that they have no platform. They are quite content right now to let the President of the United States hoist the Republican Party on their own petard. Whoever invented the word petard should receive the Pulitzer Prize for Dictionarianism. General Colin Powell was once the favorite for the presidential nomination for the Grand Old Party until his uncle George Bush Jr. sent him to the United Nations with a slide show proving beyond any doubt that the Iraqi people were injecting poultry with bird flu in trailers in the desert. When this proved to be false, Colin Powell hung down his head like John Dooley and left Washington forever with his tale between his legs. Paul Wolfowitz assured the citizens of the United States that Iraqi oil would pay for the war in Iraq. In code the United States government was telling its citizens that the United States of America was running on empty and going to Iraq to fill up their tanks. You are quite welcome. Do not forget to pray for the souls of their ghosts. Lets get back, get back, get back to where you once belonged. Get Back Joe! Here is the only out for the President of the United States before the Republican Party sinks to the bottom of the ocean for the next 50 years for what they have done in Iraq. George goes back to the ship, and they re hang the "Mission Accomplished" banners. The he says to the people on the ship and the people of planet Earth, except perhaps for a few third world people in central Africa without radios, like Jim and Elaine Ersatz and their three children Bonnie, Elaine, and Kevin: "My fellow Americans. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the brave men and women of the United States Armed Forces, who have given their lives and their limbs in the pursuit of world wide justice. I would also like to thank the 100,000 brave Iraqi men, women and children who gave their lives in this war, for their contribution to population control. We now know beyond a shadow of a doubt, that our resolve was strong, Iraq was not contaminating their poultry, and we were right all along about Nick and Jessica. This acid is really strong man. Speaking of strong men, our former ally Saddam Hussein has finally learned his lesson, thanks to the efforts of the brave men and women of the United States of America's Armed forces. My fellow Americans. Listen carefully to what Saddam Hussein said today at his trial, when he took the stand in his own defense: Saddam Hussein said today, "Let the Iraqi people UNITE and resist the American invaders and their backers. Don't fight among yourselves," said Saddam, praising the insurgency. "In my eyes, you, the Iraqi people are the resistance to the American invasion." President Bush went on, "My fellow Americans. Do you see what has happened? Saddam Hussein, who we chased from his Palace to a rabbit hole, has learned humility. He is now calling for the Unification of the Sunni, Shiite and Kurdish Iraqi people. Whoever thought that we would ever see this day? We through our efforts, when the entire world said "NO!", have brought about a profound change in the outlook of President Saddam Hussein. We have succeeded in uniting the Iraqi people. President Ronald Reagan said, "Wisdom ought not be denied even though it comes lately." Look, I used to be a deserting alcoholic but now I am the President of the United States. President Nelson Mandela used to be a shoe cleaner in a prison hair salon and now he is a Nobel Laureate. Because of the dramatic change in the outlook of the former President of Iraq, I am announcing today the complete withdrawal of the United States military from Iraq effective immediately. I am also now announcing the reinstatement of President Saddam Hussein as President of Iraq, with full dictatorship control. I am big enough to swallow my pride, a lesson I learned in Step 9. What is one who does not learn from his mistakes? Every cloud has a silver lining. Remember, it was not I who shot my lawyer in the face. How will this plan help us? Well, we are currently unable to pay our T Bills because the war has already cost us $500 billion dollars. Add in my trillion dollar tax cut and Hurricane Katrina and our country is now on the verge of bankruptcy. This is why we had to sell off our ports to the United Arab Emirates, and AOL to the House of Saud, on whose board sits my father. Saddam Hussein Himself has personally assured me that when he resumes power next week, he will again chase Al Qaeda out of Iraq, he will not allow Iran to over run the middle east, nor attack the United States of America with nuclear weapons which they may have ready in 10 years, and he will restore Peace and stability to the Middle East nations once again. I am not so full of pride that I cannot admit when I was wrong. Democracy seemed like a good idea until Hamas came to power in Palestine. I thought that democracy in Iraq would help to stabilize Iraq but as you can see the democratic Iraq is now spiraling into a civil war between the Sunni Muslims and the Shiite Muslims. You may wonder what separates the Sunni Muslims from the Shiite Muslims. Here is your answer: The Prophet Muhammad had a son in law named Ali ibn Abi Talib aka Imam Ali. The Shiites believe that he was the leader of Islam after Muhammad died, and that his descendants today are the proper leaders of Islam. The Shiites follow his heirs. On the other hand, The Sunni Muslims do not. They believe that the true successor of Muhammad was Muhammad's lieutenant Abu (father of) Baker. They follow his heirs in their mosques. Saddam could care less because he is non religious. This is why he wears a suit and a tie, to show his disdain and contempt for both the Sunni and the Shiite religious leaders. In order to unify the country of Iraq, Saddam has personally promised me, "No more Mr. Nice Guy." You may have noticed that I fought the war in Iraq with both hands tied behind my back. I now agree with President Saddam Hussein. No more Mr. Nice Guy for me either. This war has taken a tremendous toll on me personally and my family. Stress is a leading cause of heart disease and I will not have it, not one moment longer. I am telling the leaders and the people of the Middle East right now. Should anyone cause me even the slightest problem in the future, I will immediately use my 25,000 100 Megaton Nuclear Rockets which split into 8 in mid air, my full arsenal of biological and chemical weapons, and I will immediately wipe them out. I am finished playing with both hands tied behind my back. My resolve is strong. We have now brought unity to Iraq, stability to the Middle East, and by next week, all of our troops will be home for Easter. I would like to once again express my sincere gratitude to the brave men and women of the American Armed Forces, and congratulate them on a job well done. Mission Accomplished! By the way, we are also coming home from Afghanistan effective immediately. We now know that even if we get Osama, his successor could be worse. What's the point? We tried our best and that's all you can do. Saddam has already deposited 2 trillion dollars into the United States treasury, from his personal account in Switzerland. Who's your daddy?! May God bless and keep the souls of the ghosts of the people of the United States of America. Good night, and may God bless you all." Air Jordan 10 Powder Blue 2014,This means that parody sites and apps that run on the social networking site but don't make it money will disappear into the ether. Klouchebag is a popular website that parodies "Klout", a site that claims to be able to measure your online influence. Its growing popularity has seen it form partnerships with businesses around the world that offer discounts and benefits for users who have a particularly high score. Klouchebag takes the piss out of Klout by allowing users to measure the level of their online "asshattery". "Klout is a vicious little game, based on exploiting fear of being left behind, fear of being less popular, and fear of missing out," Mr Scott said. " Klouchebag was set up deliberately to parody it." Mr Scott said Klout represented everything bad about social media, "wrapped up into one hateful web site, (that was) all the competitive number measuring contests, all the 'monetisation' and 'analytics' that 'social media experts' blab on about". "Now, Klout and its ilk are being ushered in as an example of what developers working with Twitter should build," he said. Commercialising how people connect to Twitter may make good business sense, but Mr Scott said the blocking of the developers and apps that helped to boost its popularity was a betrayal. "Coming from a company that used to thrive on openness, and whose initial push to success was by the techies who built interesting, small projects, it just seems rude", he said. Dan Nolan, a Sydney app developer who co designed a Twitter app called Retweets, which let you measure how many times your tweets had been retweeted around the world, told News Ltd that Twitter had cut out anyone that created original work that could not be monetised in favour of selling user data to the highest bidder. "It's all about data mining the firehose Twitter has provided to partners for profit," he said. "Twitter has decided to control the way people connect to it and in doing so, is creating a path to shut down apps they don't like." Every day Twitter users who try to download their data are only given access to their last 3000 tweets. Mr Nolan said key partners needed to pay Twitter a lot of money to get access to an unlimited raw stream of Tweets. "Eight or nine months ago, Twitter said they were going to make analytics available to key partners but that soon all of its members would have analytics too, but then it went dark and no one mentioned it again," Mr Nolan said. "It makes me think they found a better way to make money rather than giving it away for free." Like Klouchebag, Retweets' days are limited. Mr Nolan said there was a lot more he and his business partner wanted to do with the app, but now they had no incentive to keep improving it. "There were things we wanted to see, to see if you retweeted something ,who it reached and where it popped up all over the world," Mr Nolan said. "If we invest time and effort into developing that and then Twitter says 'we're not into it or working with you' and revokes our token, all of our customers who bought it or got it for free during its early days would say 'we paid you. What's going on?'". Twitter has been contacted for comment.

Cheap And Premium Quality Air Jordan 10 Powder Blue 2014,Air Jordan 10 Cool Grey How do you know when it's time to find a nursing home for your loved one? This is the hardest and easiest of questions to answer or so it would seem. Let me explain. There are primarily two approaches to requiring nursing home care. Approach Number One: A fall occurs and a hip is broken or the loved one may have had a stroke, a heart attack or pneumonia. These are examples of medical conditions that require hospitalization. Up until this point admission to a nursing home has never been considered. The hospital has finished caring for the immediate medical need and now you are contacted by the hospital discharge planner and told that your loved one will be discharged to a nursing home for rehabilation within a few days. They give you a list of nursing homes in your area and say good luck in your search. If you are lucky, area nursing homes will have their admission coordinators visiting the hospitals daily to "shop for residents." The nursing home admission coordinator will look at your loved one's medical file and determine if the care required and the estimated length of stay will fit the nursing home's patient mix. The nursing home wants to balance the needs of your loved one with the current demands of their residents both medically and for staff availability. The nursing home will also look at how the care will be paid for. Keep in mind that the nursing home can't discriminate aginist admitting your loved one based upon how the care will be paid for, whether it's Medicare, Medicaid, long term care insurance, an HMO, private funds or other payment plans. Nursing homes, like other businesses have bills to pay, not the least of which is payroll. So naturally they will look for the maximum reimbursement possible to care for your loved one. Your challenge now becomes deciding which nursing home you will place your loved one in, within the time allocated by the hospital. Note that the reason the hospital is pushing you to transfer your loved one to a nursing home is money. The reimbursement for the care received is about to run out. Keep this in the back of your mind; the hospital will find it extremely difficult to force your loved one into a nursing home that you are not agreeable with or that is out of your neighborhood, at an unreasonable distance for you to travel. The best way to avoid confrontation with the hospital is to have a discussion with the discharge planner about which nursing homes have the best reputation in the area and in which one the discharge planner would place their loved one. After you visit each facility talk with the discharge planner about your observations, how you were received and your likes and dislikes about the facility. As long as the hospital knows you are making a good faith effort to transfer your loved one to a nusing home they will be less likely to put pressure on you. You have enough pressure on you at this point. You don't want to go looking for more. Your primary goal is to find a great nursing home for your loved one. The decision to admit your loved one to a nursing home has been made for you by an unexpected medical condition; that's the easy part. Whether the stay in the nursing home is short or long term the process of finding a great nursing home is the same, but in this case time is of the essence. In the next edition we will dicuss approach number two; a planned admission to a nursing home. I've devoted my life to caring for the elderly as my father did before me.
