The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is an independent agency of the United States government, created by Congressional statute (see 47 U.S.C. § 151 and 47 U.S.C. § 154) to regulate interstate communications by radio, television, wire, satellite, and cable in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. territories. The FCC works towards six goals in the areas of broadband, competition, the spectrum, the media, public safety and homeland security, and modernizing itself.
The FCC was formed by the Communications Act of 1934 to replace the radio regulation functions of the Federal Radio Commission. The FCC took over wire communication regulation from the Interstate Commerce Commission. The FCC's mandated jurisdiction covers the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Political divisions of the United States. The FCC also provides varied degrees of cooperation, oversight, and leadership for similar communications bodies in other countries of North America. The FCC is funded entirely by regulatory fees. It has an estimated fiscal-2016 budget of US$388 million. It has 1,720 federal employees.

The Federal Communications Commission is taking Sprint and Verizon to task for billing practices that hid extra charges in customers' bills. On Tuesday the agency ordered the carriers to pay settlements totaling more than $150 million for billing customers for third-party texting services, without their knowledge. Verizon will have to cough up a total of $90 million while Sprint will have to pay $68 million in fines. Of the $158 million, $120 million will go toward a customer redress program to pay back subscribers who were charged as a result of premium texting services they didn't sign up for for. This practice, known as "cramming," added as much as $14 per month to people's bills, with Verizon and Sprint pocketing 30% and 35% of the revenue. http://feeds.mashable.com/~r/Mashable/~3/uYS...

http://cnet.co/17PS5fG The Federal Communications Commission is considering lifting a ban on using cell phones inflight to make calls and access mobile data. The ban was originally put in place because of potential interference to wireless networks on the ground. CNET's Sumi Das details the FCC proposal and how it could end up costing passengers more in airfare.
LATEST SCIENCE UPDATES: For the first time ever, a private company has permission to land on the moon. The U.S. government has officially approved the planned 2017 robotic lunar landing of California-based Moon Express, which aims to fly commercial missions to Earth's nearest neighbor and help exploit its resources, company representatives announced today (Aug. 3). "This is not only a milestone, but really a threshold for the entire commercial space industry," Moon Express co-founder and CEO Bob Richards told Space.com. Previously, companies had been able to operate only on or around Earth. The new approval, while exclusive to Moon Express, could therefore serve as an important regulatory guide for deep-space commercial activity in general, Richards said. "Nobody's had a deep-sea voya...
According to the dumb flight attendants, crew members and even pilots, GPS devices emit radio signals..., so, according to them, I am a criminal for doing this, as Im violating many Federal Aviation Administration regulations and Federal Communications Commission... Anyways, On this trip, I was on 21A seat (left window, right above the left wing) on a Boeing 737-200, when I decided to check my Carmin nuvi 260w GPS device and.... It worked!! It took only some seconds for it to detect the GPS satellites signals, strong enough to provide me the speed at which I was traveling above the Sea of Cortez, bound to La Paz, Southern Baja California: 878 kilometers per hour!

Não havia nada que mudasse sua decisão
Não havia nada que te fizesse acreditar
Não havia uma explicação para o que se passou
Não adianta depois se arrepender por não ter escolhido ficar
Não vou mais pedir para você voltar
Tudo deixa mágoas, mas também boas recordações
Não é tão fácil ser feliz levando não
Por mais que tudo leve a crer que chegou ao fim
Penso que estar ao seu lado seria melhor pra mim
Refrão
E eu penso no que fazer
Pra não pensar mais em você
E eu penso no que fazer
E eu penso no que fazer
Pra não pensar mais em você
E eu penso no que fazer
Penso nas palavras e em tudo que ficou pra trás
Tantos bons momentos que não podem se apagar
O que me machuca não é em si nossa separação
A dor de não estar mais ao seu lado traz a solidão
Refrão
E eu penso no que fazer
Pra não pensar mais em você
E eu penso no que fazer
E eu penso no que fazer
Pra não pensar mais em você
E eu penso no que fazer
