I'll keep that in mind. You'd think the food manufacturers would want to accentuate the positive and list them. Maybe they think the average consumer would just look at it and think it had more fat.

ya if you want true accuracy you have to do it by making custom foods im only doing if for stuff thats way off i only have had to make 2 custom foods so far

I make tons of custom foods, they just don't specifically list the good fats on the nutritional info very often

i wonder if they update every so often adding to the list i like how they have brand name products already there but i understand why they dont have everything because they probably have to pay for every brand to be put in there program

it's good if you customize and put in your own foods...i found it very helpful when i started using it

It is copyright infringement, not theft. At common law, theft is when you take the tangible property of another with the intent of depriving him of it permanently without being entitled to do so. In Florida, and I imagine in most states, theft occurs whether the deprivation is intended to be temporary or permanent.

When a person downloads copyrighted intellectual property, the holder of the copyright is not deprived of its use. Laypeople may get confused when we have a law called the No Electronic Theft Act, or because many times when copyright infringement occurs, a person is enjoying something free that he would normal pay for. However, infringement is not theft, as already explained. It is an interference with someone's ability to exercise rights over their property. In that sense, it is more closely analogous to a trespass, although this is still not a perfect analogy.

It is also worth noting that theft is a crime, while the remedies for infringement of copyright are almost always civil, generally being monetary damages and injunction. In the US, copyright infringement is only criminal when it is done for profit, or when one reproduces or distributes copies of copyrighted content in an amount over $1k in a half-year period. As I am sure you know, there is no such division for theft. All thefts are criminal offenses. That is not the case with copyright infringement.

I have gotten a kick out of the people who have tut-tutted downloading copyrighted software without paying for it. I wonder if they have paid for every mp3 on their computers and iPods, if they make sure to avoid copyrighted viral videos, and if they never write fan fiction. At least I am consistent.

My legal acumen helps me sleep at night because I know I make enough megabux to support my family. I feel sorry for chumps who lay awake at night worrying about money.

By the way, the film of A Clockwork Orange will enter the public domain on January 1, 2067. You may wish to use another forum avatar until that time.

The words "steal" and "theft" are common words used before our current system of law was in place.

I'm not really concerned with the legal definition and I'm well aware that this type of theft isn't prosecuted criminally. It's still stealing.

And no, I don't have pirated mp3s on my ipod. I've downloaded all my CD's and I'm not into videos etc on line. It' not that hard to believe that honest people exist, is it?


...and I have little worry for money, but thanks for your concern

What does this have to do with the price of tomatoes?

Sorry, but it is not stealing. Since what constitutes larceny is a legality, the legal definition is pretty important. I am sure if you were ever charged with a crime, you would want the government to focus on what the law actually says rather than simply say, "Hey, who cares about technicalities? Ok, so maybe he didn't technically commit this crime, but come on. This guy is just a bad dude."

I am amazed to learn that you have never viewed a viral video, or even used a copyrighted image as a forum avatar.

Oops.

Nice ninja edit har har!

Stealing or not, that avatar is creepy as hell man. Everything about A Clockwork Orange creeps me out.

You should read the book. The ending is totally different. I wonder if they've made an English translation of it, though.

Anyone feel free to turn me in to whoever owns the rights to that film. If they have a problem with it I'll be glad to remove it.

LOL deschain,
I had to represent the milk drinkers. I prefer mine without droogies though.

You'll have to find someone else to argue with, T.
I feel a little silly for indulging you this much.

I would probably do better reading the book (I usually do). Because my mind can create the images I want to accompany the story. Whereas the actor cast for Alex has a look in his eye that I can't stand.

For some reason, though, I just can't handle the same things I used to enjoy. I can no longer read Dean Koontz, John Saul, or Stephen King - I just became a total scaredy cat out of nowhere. (Side note - my mom always did say those images weren't good for my brain, I guess maybe she was right)

Pardon the hijack.
