There is a big fire that started about 8am not to far from here. I can see the big plumes of smoke. It's not to far from Disneyland.

On the news they are saying 200 homes have been made manditory evacuated. Many homeowners want to stay and help but the Fire fighters have the right to evacuate.

How do they know when it becomes time to change from voluntary evacuation to manditory?

Last week 101 year old Rose Morat was on her way to church when a scum-of-the-earth mugger punched her in the face in the vestibule of her apartment building knocking her to the floor. Not only did the mugger get away with all of her money in her pocketbook, a total of $33 may I add, but also broke her cheekbone which can't be reset. So, how fast will this piece of you know what go to hell on judgement day?

Isn't the language the media use giving healthy, normal sized girls a complex and planting fears in their minds about their weight? Even though they are absolutely normal? Especially when there's been the recent backlash against 'Size Zero'? Surely saying someone like Kate Winslet is a 'larger' girl suggests strongly that she is overweight, when this is in fact clearly far from the truth?
Isn't it about time the media took responsibility for their use and tone of language... including newspapers, magazines and, as i've noticed, tv news readers themselves putting emphasis on certain words to imply meaning where there should be none.

First of all, today is his 50th birthday, if he's still alive.
Bin Ladin, to the muslim extremists, is worth more alive than dead, because he represents a potent rallying point, and a man to flaunt his position against the american action in the middle east.
Secondly, i'm sure a lot of extremists will try to make me believe that he's alive, with old footage, old tapes, or old documents...if he is alive, why hasn't he done any new video since 2004? Sure, there's a lot of file video, that has been shot, documented, and even dismissed, but I would like the truth.
We do know, the man is on Dialysis...not exactly a good omen for an old man on the run, considering what it takes to move, get treatment, and stay alive, while on the run.
Lastly, I know it's a religious dogma that keeps these extremists going, but has anyone ever seen a rational explanation, from him, on why he shouldn't do these killings? No morals, ethics, or even smpathy?
The man has mental issues...we had a few too.
