The Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR), a US legal rights group that represents detainees being held without charge, blamed the US government for the Saudi prisoner's death.

Jumana Musa at the rights group Amnesty International USA was not surprised to hear about the suicide.

"People have been trying to kill themselves at Guantanamo for years. It was inevitable," said Musa.

"There is a desperation among the detainees," she said. "The best efforts to prevent this kind of thing don't match the desperation of knowing that you are being held for years without any hope of resolution of your case."


What about FREE WILL - WE didn't kill him? HE DID IT to HIMSELF!!!!!!!

I've been tattooing for eight years. I served a formal apprenticeship under a very reputable artist who has been published in many books, magazine, and has been on the discovery channel several times. Having said that, I wish to ask this simple question.
Is this forum necessary? All this forum will do is create problems for an already saturated business. I've seen people asking "how can a non-tattooer get some tattin' ink". the answer to that is quite simple...YOU DON'T YOU IDIOT!
What makes people think that they can just go out and buy some equipment and start tattooing? You have no idea what Universal Precautions even mean. You have no idea what cross contamination means. You have no idea what proper sterilization is, not to mention how to achieve it! All of you who are reading this who are guilty of the above...please, do humanity a favor...CUT OFF YOUR THUMBS! If you can't live with that...go find a person who knows what they are doing, serve an apprenticeship!!!!

Are guys intimidated/turned off/unattracted by women who are independent, strong, level-headed...and women who do not ever want kids...who do not want to ever marry...who don't want to join bank accounts or anything for that matter?

I mean, why are guys offended when I tell them that 1) i don't plan on ever having kids 2) i don't ever want to marry, but am willing to 'commit' in a long-term relationship 3) don't want to join bank accounts, lease, or anything legal/monetary 4) if u can't handle that, leave now....i mean--it's called honesty, which in my opinion is the best policy

Are there any women out there who see my point of view? I just don't want the typical dream of marriage w/ kids, big house w/ white picket fence...and a golden retriever...sorry, no offense to those who have...but, are there guys out there who actually have mutual perspectives and lifestyles?

since November I have been considering joining the Air force, and I want to make a decision by my 21st birthday which is 3 months from now! I was in college, but it just wasn't working. I don't know if its because I didn't like school, or just became disenchanted with it. The same thing happened around about this time in high school, so I finished poorly. I want to join the Air Force because I feel this need to serve my country, I also want the pride and camaraderie that comes with it. My parents aren't to keen on this idea but, they finally decided they will support whatever decision I make. Sooo here are my choices, transfer from my University to a junior college so I can do my prereq's for an out of state college( i go to school in my hometown) I think being away might re-energize me. Join the Air Force in October... or find a career I like such as financial planning( was offered a job already) and do it while I'm continuing school. I'm not content just doing school anymore...

We just moved into this neighborhood a month ago. Just this past week our daughters made friends with these kids down the street. Thats all fine and dandy, but the one little girl, she just won't go away. She is only 4 years old and her brother is 6 and they just run up and down the street all day long. Both of my daughters weren't feeling well yesterday so I made them stay in. This little girl, I promise was down here at least 20 times asking if they could play. Each time telling her, no, they are sick, you can come back tomorrow. Eventually the mom comes down to see if they can play and I tell the mom the same thing. Well the girl comes down 3 more times. Today they were down here almost all day long, I tell her she needs to go home for about an hour so they can eat, and she is back every 15 minutes to see if they can play. It is really getting on my nerves bad, summer is just starting and I don't want these kids down here everyday. How do I tell the mom they cant be here everyday?

... why is the temperature rising five to ten times faster than any known natural warming? The fastest known natural warming occurs when the Earth comes out of an Ice Age, when the planet typically warms by 4° to 7° C over 5000 years or so, a rate of 0.14° C per century or less. In the past century the planet has warmed by 0.7° C. Is it just an amazing coincidence that this is occurring at exactly the same geological moment as the large-scale burning of fossil fuels?

(And over the last 20 years, the temperature has been rising at an astounding rate of 2° per century. And it's still accelerating.)
