the article speaks of the children being starved to almost death..but, did the 'parents' starve themselves to almost death as well? i mean, if you can't feed the kid cause you can't move away from the wide screen tv...i'm just positive that you can't feed yourself either for the same reasons...right?

people like this should automatically get their reproductive organs removed once they have committed such crimes...this will rule out procreation and the chance of another child suffering unnecessarily...

this is just another example of how those who have the power to change society, chose to do so without consideration to those who will suffer the consequences...mental illness...once again, becomes a joke...by this time next year, yes! playing videos and good old fashion bad parenting are now a part of the DSM-IV family..welcome to mental illness

what is your opinion?

do we just sell it to someone else to go off polluting the world? Who cares right, we made the switch and went with a high efficiency vehicle. Really, aren't we just making more waste when we trade in our not so earth friendly cars in for more earth friendly cars? Is there a way to "upgrade" our vehicles' engines so that they can also use electricity and be more fuel efficient? Wouldn't it be less wasteful to change out some old parts than a whole car? I'm a being irrational in my thinking?

Look at all the laws you have against social taboos and vices. instead of using grossly exagerated hypothetical and extremelly unlikely scenarios to try to justify these laws.... Why not let people do as they want so long as its not effecting you? if you choose to be disturbed by it than you deserve to be disturbed by it.

I recently spent the night over at a friend's apartment (on the floor under a quilt), and when I got back home I noticed I had about 7 insect bites around the ankles. I had brought with me a backpack which was left on the floor.

I was wondering if its likely that I brought back fleas with me, either on my clothes or in the backpack, and how likely it would be that they'd reproduce and cause a huge problem.

Thanks for any feedback.

For my whole life, I had been taking showers in the morning when I woke up. But I realized at the end of the day, I smelled pretty bad. Not that I'm dirty or anything, but I start to smell easily. I thought maybe I was one of those people who had to shower twice a day or something. So one night I went to the gym (as opposed to how I usually go every morning) and I HAD to take a shower because I was very sweaty. I'm telling you, I didn't smell the next day AT ALL. I probably could have went without a shower the next day and just gotten one the following morning but that's a little gross to me so I hopped in the shower again the next evening and it's been great. I don't understand though, since I'm taking a shower before the next day begins...whereas if I took a shower when the day started, I smell by the day's end. Very odd. Any of you have input on this?

http://www.reuters.com/article/oddlyEnoughNews/idUSN1236114920070713 QUOTE " CULIACAN, Mexico (Reuters) - Sinaloa, the northern Mexican state that spawned the country's most fearsome drug cartel, hopes to lure tourists to rustic cabins in a rugged area infamous for opium fields and violent kingpins....But Sinaloa's tourism minister Antonio Ibarra said renting out mountain cabins could wean some of the local population off illicit activities. "Every well-paid job we create gives people an alternative, a decent life," he told Reuters.." UNQUOTE
Even the ira have seen the financial benefits to be made from changing from the gun to tourism.. albeit, it took a bit of time... so...

My question here is..

COULD this be a possible, viable solution to the problems in Afghanistan - RADICAL though it sounds and appears AT THIS TIME...?

My boyfriend and I are going to be visiting disney world for 14 days in May of 2008. We want to book the trip as soon as possible.

I called a Disney phone number that somebody in a comment had left me. It was the place you call when ready to book your trip or if you have any questions. I asked when the 2008 rates come out and they said that they'll be out in the first 2 weeks of July. I called several days ago and they told me that they wont be out for another couple weeks.

I looked online and couldnt find an answer, and I've lost this number since.

Does anybody know when 2008 rates come out so that I can book my trip?

I just want to know why, I don't want to be told he exists by his name, or he exists just because he's god. How old were you when you stopped believing in santa? What if i told you its a lie and he's really real you just have to believe in him to get something, and the next day good luck strikes and i say it was santa. I mean, most of you seem pretty intelligent but talk about god and its like you are on brainwash mode. Why? you know why the world turns, you know things evolve, they're changing right in front of our eyes, and adapting to the world, I've physically seen things pre-evolved that were casted away from evolving areas, but have never come across a spiritual experience, and i would absolutely love to if someone tells me how. I've tried every religion and found lies in all. lies that can be very easily proven. I really truly don't want to believe there's no afterlife, but i can either lie to myself or face the facts.

I am a recent owner of a Kodak EasyShare (Z700) digital camera. I can take 8 to 10 pictures, then I have to download the to the computer or erase them from the camera's memory. I hoped to work around this by getting an SD card for it. Now when I attempt to transfer pictures to my computer, it's like the computer isn't seeing the camera anymore. It was fine until I started using the memory card. My computer is a desktop Dell Dimension XPSt running Windows 98se on an 800 MHZ Pentium III processor and has 256 MB RAM. No printer. What's the problem and what can I do about it? Assume I know nothing about digital photography or my camera's operation (I find the owner's manual extremely confusing).

I love watching music videos but these southern rappers are killing me.

They parade and throw money, mouth full of jewelry, and women who don't look the way they do once they take off the weave and the makeup. What is going ON?!

Ok, I must admit I like Lil' Jon and the Ying Yang twins but even they had a little bit of class in their videos. I don't know. I feel a difference, just can't put my finger on it.

AAAAND what the hell are they rapping about?! Ay baybay, wipe me down, and so on. Has anyone listened to these lyrics?
I'm sorry but it's utter CRAP!

Anyone else agree?
