...demand that we pay our custodians $20 per hour, nearly twice the market wage for their work, seems to be the beginning of a never-ending battle against reality. If we tamper with labor negotiations and cause an artificial increase in the wage, we can expect one of two scenarios to result. The first option, fewer jobs, is decidedly unpalatable, and thus it’s understandable that many students would rally against it. Unfortunately, the other option is an increase in our tuition, which is already enough of a financial burden to any family...
Lempert and others argue that it's time for Coke to tamper with its famous and famously secret ingredient mix. Most Coke is sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup, yet kids in Latin America are drinking sugar-based, fruit-flavored beverages, he says. Lempert says the cola market will continue to dry up without a radical recipe shift.

The latter's ability to be guarded and upgraded on the fly by a universe of programmers offers some protection against the megaviruses. Linux's tamper resistance is one reason governments in particular are showing great interest in Linux-based operating systems...
...Went Wrong?" Michael Elliott asserted, "If the assumption that Saddam had deadly weapons looks, at least for now, to have been mistaken, it was to an extent understandable." But letting Bush off the hook in this manner is equivalent to saying it is O.K. for a district attorney to tamper with evidence because he truly believes that the accused is guilty. Cherry picking only the most supportive intelligence reports, ignoring others and making a case that is much stronger than the evidence warrants in an effort to convince the public that war is necessary are wrong. It doesn't matter...
