Affluenza, a portmanteau of affluence and influenza, is a term used by critics of consumerism. The book Affluenza: The All-Consuming Epidemic defines it as "a painful, contagious, socially transmitted condition of overload, debt, anxiety and waste resulting from the dogged pursuit of more".

In December of 2013, State District Judge Jean Boyd sentenced a North Texas teenager, Ethan Couch, to 10 years probation for driving while drunk and killing four pedestrians after his attorneys successfully argued that the teen suffered from affluenza and needed rehabilitation, and not prison. 

Affluenza - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Basically. Rich people can now claim that they suffer from this disease to escape jail time after killing poor people.

I had a loop sim which I had to cut from SC(micro sim) to work on my Note 2 now I changed my mind and instead add an Idea sim to it and want to switch back my loop sim to Old Original sized Sim's (maybe its called macro sim's ) to add on Duos.

so now what is the procedure? Should I ask for a duplicate sim or I need an FIR or something.

ps: Using prepaid connection.

Hi everyone, I'm hanging out today at 2.30pm. Come and join me to celebrate this proud moment!

Just 4 days left now!

Past few months I have been getting pathetic Speed post FUP on my MTNL FTTH  Connection. Don't even get a consistent speed of 400kbps whereas the promised speed is 512kbps.(now changed to 1mbps)

I think my line is proper cause before FUP limit  I get proper 10mbps speed. Even changed my plan to 1mbps Unlimited (got recently discontinued) to check but then also got like 700kbps.

Downloads from play store also just randomly stall.

Does anyone else also face the problem? What could be the issue?

Really frustrating cause these Aunties on the helpline are real idiots all they do is generate a pointless complaint no. Have spoken to few higher authorities but no luck so far!   

This looks like the global edition of Moto X...

This is great as Google can now deliver updates without requiring a full OS update. 

 

 

Stories impacting Sonia's image are carefully choreographed right at the top, at the level of promoters and editors who are on first-name terms with key Congress functionaries such as Ahmed Patel. But Patel, the consummate spin doctor, also has a line with beat reporters; they need each other in the demanding 24x7 news cycle where a single 'untutored' line could damage the Congress President's image. It is a tradeoff that works well for both. While the lowly reporter can impress his bosses by claiming he has knowledge of closely-held developments, Patel gets to ensure that Sonia's image remains unsullied.
