It means remaining silent when you are not under arrest or being detained.

The US Supreme Court has said that you must invoke your right to remain silent. It doesn't seem constitutional, but it is currently the law. (Salinas v. Texas and People v. Tom)

Re:Amtrak Could Turn a Profit for the First Time

Air travel contributes greatly to climate change. When we are talking about High-speed rail in the US, no one is really talking about cross country trips like Chicago to LA. They are talking about regional trips like LA to SF or DC to NYC. Ideas like maglev or even the hyperloop are what I consider to be "looking up"
Re:Amtrak Could Turn a Profit for the First Time

That's why the push for true high speed rail in the US is so important. Amtrak would need a massive budget increase to make it happen.

"The British Parliament's Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport Committee published hundreds of pages in a report in December; they were seized from Six4Three's founder, Ted Kramer, when he visited the UK."
Can anyone explain how/why the documents were seized?
Re:Backcountry.com sues anyone who uses its namesake

You can register a trademark for a generic term if it is tied to a very specific category. It is what allows "Apple" to be trademarked when related to computers. The problem here is that "Backcountry" is a term that is too closely tied to what they are actually selling. It would be like allowing a phone company to trademark the term "Cell"

You could do it without money. You could have both users "check in" at the location of the date. If a user is continually bailing on dates, the app could show them less.
