I'm a 20 year old University student and I'm despirately wanting to buy a Laptop.

I've never had one before, so I have no idea what to look for.

I own a 30 GB iPod, so I listen to alot of music, so I'll need lots of space, I think.

I'd also like to be able to watch movies on my Laptop.

And of course, the internet, but that's no big deal.

Please let me know if there's a certain laptop I should look into.

Also.. I'm looking for one under $1,000.

Thanks!!!

I am aware that the Catholics forbade other Catholics to join the Freemasons; the Knights of Columbus was formed to be the Catholic society. However the Freemasons do welcome Catholic members; I know a few masons who are practicing Catholics?

How did the Catholic - Mason war start and is the rule forbidding Catholics from joining still active today?

I am British and I fail to understand this concept that American soldiers must necessarily be "fighting for freedom". And if it weren't for them 'you'd have no freedom'. I've seen many liberals who are generally against the war but uphols this 'fighting for our freedom' thing to.

I can't really see anyone who is a threat to the freedom that exists in the US. They have the biggest military in the world, it's one of the richest counties in the world, but are a bunch of Islamic crazies really a threat to American society as a whole? Also all the major wars that's been fought since the second world war seems to have been fought to further the interests of the American elites (Vietnam, Iraq etc.)

BTW: I'm not insulting American soldiers or anything here. I don't have anything against them as I've never met any of them and I hope they get home OK. I'd just like this cleared up.

So I was having a problem with my fish dying everytime I did a water change. I boycotted cleaning my tank and have gone for 2 months now without cleaning, just topping the water off and have had no fatalities. I'm getting green algae and my snail isn't enough to clean it. What's a good algae eater that won't get too big? Does anyone else go this long without changing the water?

... at work, although there is nothing playing it, in my heart I am starting to truly believe that the written word of Allah is the truth and I was wondering how others felt ( not about MY CHOICE in relgion) about becoming muslim or being muslim.

I'd like to know more about them... Do they get along with kids/other animals? Do they bark excessively/run away? I know that they need a fenced yard. What kinds of behavior/medical problems have you had with your own? I have done some research, but I also know there are just some things breed websites aren't going to tell you. I have a 1 year old daughter and I am planning eventually to have more kids. My Saint Bernards have been excellent with my daughter, so I know that giant breeds aren't necessarily a problem just because of size. If anyone has a suggestion for another giant breed that would be good with small children, I'm open to suggestions. And by giant breed, I mean the breed standard over 100 lbs...... I am a vet tech, and I just don't see many giant breed dogs.....1 Saint Bernard other than my 2, A couple Great Danes, and 1 Bullmastiff.

Democrats Can't Handle the Good News

Very good news is coming out of Iraq. Not surprisingly, this hasn’t caused a change of heart among the Democratic leadership. It hasn't even given them pause. One wonders if they are capable of hearing such news anymore.
The Times Online reports that Al Qaeda is facing rebellion from within its ranks. Fed up with being part of a group that cuts off a persons face with piano wire to teach others a lesson, dozens of low-level members of Al Qaeda are daring to become informants for the U.S. military in a hostile Baghdad neighborhood.
Some of these junior Al Qaeda members are said to be repulsed by the gratuitous, barbaric violence. One said, I am sick of it and I hate them, and I am done.
The good news doesn't stop here. Al Qaeda is not only facing internal dissension, but evidence is also emerging that other ethnic forces formerly friendly to Al Qaeda are changing their tune. Iraqi locals are denying Al Qaeda the sanctuary they need to operate. Lt. Col Stephen Michael, commander of a 700-troop battalion in Doura, says, Al Qaedas days are numbered, and right now he is scrambling.
This news, says the Times, comes out of Doura. But it is part of a wider trend that has started in other Al Qaeda hotspots across the country and in which Sunni insurgent groups and tribal sheikhs have stood together with the coalition against the extremist movement.
Along the same lines, The Washington Times reports that U.S. forces have brokered an agreement between Sunni and Shiite tribal leaders in Taji, Iraq, to join forces against Al Qaeda and other extremists, which represents an extension of a policy already implemented in Anbar province that has transformed the security situation there.
This isn't some flimsy handshake deal. Tribal leaders agreed to use members of more than 25 local tribes to protect the area around Taji from Sunni and Shiite extremists. It's also significant that tribal forces approached U.S. forces to initiate this agreement.
Al Qaedas inhumanity is not the only reason things are beginning to change in Iraq. The reports clearly indicate that the increased number of U.S. forces in Doura has made the locals feel it's less dangerous for them to turn toward us. These reports are direct confirmation that the surge strategy is working.
The Washington Times also reports -- surely much to the chagrin of war naysayers who have gloated that we have been greeted not as liberators but occupiers -- that U.S. soldiers walking through Sunni villages have been greeted warmly, with locals shaking the soldiers' hands and kissing their cheeks. Just a month ago, according to Sgt. Richard Fisk, every single one of these people was shooting at us.
Has any of this good news coming out of Iraq prompted Democrats to rethink their opposition to victory?
A brief survey of recent headlines reveals quite the opposite. Sunday, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said he would press forward on legislation to pull U.S. troops out of Iraq, despite the Democrat's failed efforts last week to pass such a bill. He also said Republicans who voted against withdrawal of our troops were engaged in partisan gamesmanship. If that isn't a textbook case of psychological projection, Ive never seen one.
Meanwhile, Senator Russ Feingold told NBCs Tim Russert that he wants Congress to censure President Bush for his management of the Iraq War and his assault on the Constitution. While Reid didn't readily warm to the idea of a censure, he did say that the president already has the mark of the American people that hes the worst president weve ever had. How’s that for rising above partisanship and supporting your commander in chief during wartime?
Elsewhere, that great patriot from San Francisco, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, derided President Bush’s call for congressional Democrats to rise above partisanship. Like Reid, Pelosi said the American people have lost faith in Bush and she will continue to cause Congress to vote to end this war every chance she gets.
Speaking of partisanship, news reports around the web demonstrate that while the Bush administration and our armed forces are doing everything they can to accomplish serious, non-partisan business in Iraq in furtherance of the nonpartisan goal of promoting our national security; Democratic leaders are bogging down the administration in frivolous investigations over matters that aren't even arguably illegal.
In other news, Democratic presidential candidates are traveling the country trying to outdo each other in the nonpartisan activity of pandering to illegal immigrants for their votes (Obama has gone so far as to court La Raza). Other party leaders are trying to develop strategies to unburden the party of its image as the party of abortion. Of course, they're not doing anything to unburden themselves of the party's moral failure on it.
That concludes our report.
