The Federal Government has asked a California court to dismiss a lawsuit brought by the ACLU in behalf of five men who claim they were flown to another country where they were tortured and interrogated. Acting Assistant Attorney General Jeffrey Bucholz said that CIA Intelligence information would be jeopardized if the case proceeded.

Although the President claimed that the U.S. does not torture prisoners, this Detention and Interrogation Program, called the Rendition Program has gone on for years. Among other charges, it is stated that the government "falsified flight plans to avoid public scrutiny."

The five men claiming to have been tortured in a Secret Prison located in another country claim that they are not terrorists and pose no danger for the United States.

Nonbeliever's define faith as believing without evidences. But actually there are tons of evidences there that points that there is God, like healings from sickness/diseases, a persons life change from a miserable one to a meaningful one, divine interventions; people who have seen God and angels, answered prayers, & archeological artifacts...miracles. When a person is healed from something after they believed God, nonbelievers often tells that the body healed itself, if its that easy then why are there people who are still sick? I'd like to see an unbeliever get healed if its like that. I have read many articles about people who were getting healed and later goes back to their doctors for follow-up and even the doctors couldn't explain why they are healed. Not only those people are evidences of God's healing but also they are being backed-up by their medical records. I have seen many people who were miserable but after they accept God, they became happy, joyous people. =>cont.

I really want to have a double major in business and either vocal performance or musical theatre.
When I graduate, I want to have a well-paying job that I can get with my business degree.
But I also want to perform.
So is it possible to have a regular job and still perform in the community?

ok i have 2 interviews next week, at aeropostale, and lucky brand jeans, heres my reasons for working at each one, i cant decide which store i want to work at their both right next to eachother. at aeropostale i kind of shop their, and there are cute girls that work there, and aero is more popular than lucky brand jeans which more girls would go to. but im not sure if i can wear whatever i want i asked the lady and i had a button shirt from american eagle thats just red but has a tiny little eagle emblem on it, i can probably cut it off or something. and you get discounts. now lucky brand jeans i like them, and i would be able to wear whatever i want to i think, but its a little smaller when it comes to woman, and people who shop their. if anyone can fill me in on their experience working at either store would be great. thank you

Okay, here's the deal. I'm a college student, so I don't always have a large flow of cash. Therefore, I do not need a contract cell phone plan because I don't need to get into trouble with credit agencies at such a young age. Currently, I have a Tracfone, but I'm not crazy about it. I've had it for about 2 years now, and it's "okay", but the lack of incentives (unlimited nights and weekends/mobile to mobile calling etc) makes it feel overpriced. I want something a little more up to date. I've been looking into the UPrepaid Pay-per-Day plan with Alltel. So far, it looks pretty solid. 75 cents per day with 2 free features included, and then just 10 cents a minute for calls not in the free features. So, theoretically, one could get Unlimited Nights and Weekends and 1 Favorite Number calling, and call/receive calls from the 1 favorite number and do any other calling at night or on the weekends and it'd be roughly $22.50 a month. Any advice would be very much appreciated.

We almost never lose both mittens or gloves; we usually lose one of them. The dryer tends to 'eat' only one sock from each pair. Don't you think it's entirely plausible that all these mittens/gloves and socks were taken by God because he needed them for the amputees who are in Heaven?
