As 9/11 Draws Near, a Debate Rises: How Much Tribute Is Enough?
Published: September 2, 2007

Again it comes, for the sixth time now — 2,191 days after that awful morning — falling for the first time on a Tuesday, the same day of the week.

Again there will be the public tributes, the tightly scripted memorial events, the reflex news coverage, the souvenir peddlers.

Is all of it necessary, at the same decibel level — still?


http://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/02/nyregion/02fatigue.html?_r=2&hp=&oref=slogin&pagewanted=all&oref=slogin








So let's see: the NYT is sick and tired of those darned 9/11 tributes! We all ought to shut up and just forget about it, I guess. But yet...the very same NYT seems to have an indefatigable zeal for tributes to the late Princess Diana.


The selfsame New York Times has published at least ten articles about the tragic Princess Diana in just the last few days:

I am doing a photo shoot soon with an expecting mother. I need some knowledge on how to set up my photo shoot for good lighting. I need to go inexpensive. My thoughts were to purchase a black and white sheet (black of course for a black background and white for a white background), drape the sheet on the wall. Use some of my husband’s mechanic lights and position them on ladders and or tables, her husband will be there to assist me and to be in the shoot. I was going to start the shoot at 7:00p.m. I need some suggestions of what I can do to improve this shoot. Inexpensive. I will be editing these picture afterwards in Photoshop.

i have two mixed lab puppies (5 1/1 mos.) they are also inbred which could be a variable in my problem. u see i have an apartment and i keep the dog in the kitchen when we arent home with a baby gate. well they can climb over that thing no problem and when they do they tear up my house to crap! anything adn everything they can get into they do. so yes, i have a crate, but i feel bad bc when i put them in their they start barking and yelpin up a storm and u know i have neightbors on both sides of me and below me and theres NOWAY they CANT hear these dogs. they bark n bark until they bark themselves out i suppose. i want to be able to let them go wherever they want in the house without being so overhyper. they can just walk around and look at stuff and lay down somewhere. they have to run and chase each other around knockin crap off. its getitn to wear it'd be better getting rid of them, itd be less stress but i love them :) and i wanna try n get them well trained so i can keep them.

She said,"from where he comes from" in the South, dogfighting isn't that unusual. It's like cockfighting in Puerto Rico. There are certain things that are indicative to certain parts of the country." As for torturing and murdering the dogs that were unfit to fight, she said, "For many people, dogs are sport."
My question is, do you agree with her statement?
Personally, I find it mindless and idiotic. There is no excuse for what he did, and I find it insulting that she uses his origins from the south to defend him. I also believe her way of thinking is so horrible, that she can excuse his behavior, and go as far as to defend him!

what...uh...never mind!"would him jump to a conclusion that is far from
what you are thinking.
19. Guys go crazy when girls touch their hands.
20. Guys are good flatterers when courting but they usually stammer when they talk to a girl they really like.

88. If a guy lets you go, he really loves you.
89. If you have a boyfriend, and your boy best friend always glances at you and it obviously shows that he is jealous whenever you're with your
boyfriend, all I can say is your boy best friend loves you more than your
boyfriend does.
90. Guys learn from experience not from the romance books that girls read and take as their basis of experience.
91. You can tell if a guy is really hurt or in pain...when he cries in
front of you!
92. If a guy suddenly asks you for a date, ask him first why.
93. When a guy says he can't sleep if he doesn't hear your voice even just for one night, hang up. He also tells that to another girl. He only
flatters you and sometimes makes fun of you.
94. You can truly say that a guy has good intention if you see him praying sometimes.
95. Guys seek for advice not from a guy but from a girl.
